Omega Summoner

Chapter 1968: Besieged by a Storm I

[The Supernatural Storm has arrived.]

[Defend Avalon with all the might you carry!]

The Supernatural storm was quite larger than anyone has anticipated. The size of the supernatural storm dwarfed even the entire size of Avalon itself. It was not only the skies around Avalon that became dark as the storm clouds filled the entire area of at least a hundred kilometers.

This was not a simple defense battle just like Adrian thought because he sensed the power of numerous dead souls floating as well.

Adrian did not know he could even detect them, but he could. The Supernatural storm have collected numerous live of other on their way here. Adrian actually wanted to openly attack the supernatural storm immediately, but his duty prevented him from doing so immediately.

As soon as the supernatural storm roared at Avalon, Adrian changed his form and used one of the forbidden spells learned as the mediator.

”I invoke the powers of the Gods of Death. Hear my call and answer me to cleanse the souls tied to great catastrophe.” Adrian started to chant.

”What is he doing?”

”Has he already given the command to attack?”

The players are suddenly flabbergasted that Equinox is still flying in the skies and muttering some words. The enemies started to circle around Avalon as the storm spirits started to crash against the area. The players were scared that they would get swept away by the flood of storm spirits, but a barrier suddenly manifested to protect the territory.

The barrier is none other than the special barrier that can be used once a month by the territory lord or territory manager to protect the territory from attacks for one hour. The length of the protection might vary as stronger attacks can break the barrier easily.

Adrian already activated it as soon as the Supernatural storm hit as he knew that the players and even the NPCs need to accustom themselves to the enemy.

Usually, territory lord would use the barrier as a last resort to protect the territory when it is already breached. One of the special features of the barrier is that it can push enemies out of the territory once it is activated. Adrian did not bother with that as he knows the defense should be prepared or else they will lose.

”I, Mediator of the Gods of Death, invoke the sacred vow. I call upon a fragment of the God of Death Abaddon!” Adrian finally finished his chant as the entire area suddenly felt cold.

When the supernatural storm came, the area suddenly rose in temperature as the heat expelled by the storm spirits and the storm itself was immense. The temperature suddenly dropping to such low measure is actually due to Adrianʼs chant. Out of a sudden, an eerie choir sung as if it was a song that is sung when the dead are blessed before they are sent to the afterlife forever.

A dark crystal suddenly came out of a crack and fell towards Adrian. The dark crystal fused to Adrianʼs body and his formed suddenly changed drastically. Adrian suddenly turned into a dark armored emperor in the battlefield and summoned a silver sword that glowed in unknown runes.

”Souls of the dead that are lost. Come to the afterlife and achieve rest. Soul Exaltation Slash!” the dark armored emperor stated as he released a powerful slash at the supernatural storm.

The supernatural storm actually roared in pain as the eye of the storm was revealed. The eye of the storm looked incredibly ghastly as the souls of the dead were trying to come out of it. The pitiful look on all of the souls trying to achieve rest could be seen crying out towards Adrian.

The eye of the storm tried to defend against the Soul Exaltation Slash, but it cannot defend against an attack that is not meant to kill. The Soul Exaltation Slash is not an attack that could kill as it is an attack that can save souls that are being used as fuel by unnatural beings. The grip that the eye of the storm had on the souls of the dead is destroyed.

The scream of relief released by the numerous souls could be heard as all of them ascended. If one looked closely then they might have seen a black winged being welcoming them. The eye of the storm suddenly started to fizzle as it was being powered by the souls it had captured on the way there.

[The Supernatural Storm has been weakened by 15%.]

The dark armored emperor looked relieved as he smiled and returned to being a fragment. The energy that was inside of Adrian that made him transform is also taken away by the dark crystal fragment. The dark crystal fragment then flew to the sky and vanished inside of a rift. Adrianʼs mind was in another headspace as he is looking at all the souls he just saved.

The first spirit that actually came towards Adrian was not a human spirit but a spirit of a cute puppy that seemed to be lame on one leg. Despite the cute puppy being lame, one could see the energy of its brightness. Adrian patted the head of the cute puppy and it responded with a smile that is brimming with happiness, but it only made him smile bitterly.

Adrian can only become sad because the tragedy is a result of him angering a god.

”I am sorry, little one. A tragedy befell you because of a result in my action even though you already have a difficult life. I hope that you would be a strong and proud being in your next life. I also share the same sentiment to all of you that were trapped there as well.” Adrian stated as he carried the cute puppy towards the souls of the people that came to thank him.

The souls that came to thank him could no longer speak as most of their energy was used up by the Supernatural Storm. Still, the eyes and facial expressions that all of them gave Adrian did not show any anger but gratitude. The souls were glad to finally be free from eternal torture as they were being used as batteries by the supernatural storm.

All of the souls vanished with smiles on their faces and a look of relief.

[The souls of the dead are thankful to the Lord of the Territory and has given their heartfelt gratitude.]

[The gratitude that is given is shared to all of the people in the territory.]

[All of the beings that is there to protect the territory will have their stats increased by 5%.]

[All beings will also have a chance to get revived upon getting hit by a fatal hit once. All beings revived will have 10% of their health upon returning.]

”What!”

”No way!”

All of the players exclaimed in shock as they did not expect a buff like that. To top it all off, Equinox even weakened the supernatural storm which made it shrink although it is still large. The numerous notifications increased the morale of all the players as their initial fear was washed away. Meanwhile, Adrian looked at the repercussions of the forbidden spell that he used.

[You have lost one level due to the forbidden spell that you have used.]

Adrian is actually thankful that he only lost one level as using spells like that would often result in great sacrifices. The forbidden spell that he used called upon a fragment of the God of Death Abaddon that can only use one skill which is the Soul Exaltation Slash. It is a powerful spell that instantly sends undead or wayward souls to the afterlife as they are purified.

”I shall destroy all of the storm spirits in your honor.” Adrian stated as he looked at the supernatural storm with eyes full of anger.

”Attack!” Adrian shouted as the barrier that is protecting the territory could be seen to have finally been shattered by the continuous attacks of the storm spirits.

It seems that the storm spirits have always been a part of this supernatural storm unlike the spirits of the dead earlier. The players all shouted in unison as Adrian spearheaded the attack as he actually summoned his spear armament. A majestic appearance of Adrian could be seen as Kanlaon flew around him in a swirling motion.

All of Adrianʼs soulbounds could be seen around him except for Saena as she is busy guarding the Tree of Life and Death. Sirius manifested in his entire full size and even called upon Yuki as well. The both of them created a powerful synergy between shadow and ice that destroyed all of the storm spirits that come after them.

Kanlaon flew across the sky as if he was dancing and released numerous magic spells of different elements. The skies could be seen being bombarded with fire, lighting, earth, ice, darkness, and light. All of the storm elementals that came near him all dissipated as the powerful elementals spells are deadly to storm spirits.
