Chapter 610 607:Attack On Clex City[4]

Aeon and his men who had retreated to a safe distance saw the sky set ablaze by a dark dense crimson flame rising towards the sky.

A huge mushroom-shaped smoke cloud rose and a shockwave of flames spread around destroying everything in the vicinity.

The ground quivered and jolted in shock. Tremors spread around for more than a few kilometres. A dense dark cloud of smoke rising up formed a cloud that almost covered the middle of Clex City.

"What the…"

"Did this guy empty the whole reservoir of explosives?"Aeon frowned with a bad premonition.

Explosives were quite expensive and time-consuming to make. His Lord liked to play with explosives and it brought a great benefit when traded with other Empires due to various uses.

Now, one didn't need to have awakened to help when clearing the path through mountains.

Before the war, His Lord permitted to use of a portion of it if it was necessary, however, it seems that dumb Hugo, just pulled out the entire stock.

'I don't know about it now but if this was before, Lord Alex might have beat the shit out of them after all this explosion caused this time is a bit huge comparable to the magic destination of peak Legendary realm.'

Aeon looking back, raised his voice sternly at a group of people gathered behind surrounded by soldiers.

Several hundred people were watching the scene with a flabbergasted expression. Their bodies were quivering violently.

They were the native people of this city who were reluctant to leave even after the notice was issued. It was such a headache to pull them out.

They weren't criminals whom he could just forcefully kick out. All of them had properties here and this place served as their daily earning. There were many inn owners, bar owners and shop owners gathered here along with their families 

"Did you see this? If I hadn't gathered you here, you wouldn't have been alive to see the next day."Aeon's voice struck like thunder in their ears.

They were unable to refute the young man's words now whom they stubbornly refused before.

But noticing the mass destruction, their heart was bleeding heavily.

Amid the vast buildings, flames rage uncontrollably, painting the sky with an ominous orange hue. The buildings become towering torches, the roads consumed by the relentless inferno. Thick smoke billows into the air, obscuring the once-clear horizon. 

"Thank you, Lord, for saving our lives and not giving up on us."

"Thank you, Lord."

"May the Goddess blessing be with you."

Aeon smiled and didn't speak much.

How can he not know their thoughts? They were glad to be alive but losing their means of income was a hard blow for them.

No one wants to let go of thier money they earned by sweat and tears.

Aeon shook his head and shouted.

"Soldiers advance."

"The wall is gone, it's time to march." 

Following his calls, many mages stood up shooting a beam of light.

The beam of light exploded in the air summoning dark clouds that started to bellow violently and soon a heavy downpour began.

On the other side, the remaining soldiers and mercenaries scramble to battle the blaze, their efforts a stark contrast to the furious and chaotic dance of the flame.

Those who were quite near the bridge were burnt into nothingness. Not even a part of their corpse was left alive under such a heavy fire.

With no one to restrict and flames subdued by a downpour, coating themselves in mana, Aeon and his man stride past the huge crater created by the blast.

After a few moments of marching, they heard the screams and shrieks of agony from afar.

On increasing their speed, they finally reached the place ravaged by fire and noticed their comrades.

And their condition was a bit worse.

Their body was riddled with gruff scars and their flesh seemed to be the brunt of dark.

Aeon, with a huge leap, sprang into action.

Hugo and Ian's group, now joined together to keep pushing the enemies. 

Hugo stepped on a guy digged a hole in his chest and then, rotating his body, slammed the shovel over a person's head, cracking his head open.

Ian waved his hand, freezing the ground and threw a ball of electricity that blasted the discharging current.

Both of them were clearly out of breath and struggling to keep fighting.

It was then, a beam of light that exploded clearing a trail of enemies.

Large arcs of swords rained down cutting through the enemies.

"What the hell?"

"Arghhhh!''

"Damn, run...Run for your lives..."

The enemies screamed in terror.

Aeon landing near Hugo and Ian, gives them a deep stare.

"Why are you in such a mess?"

As Aeon's question fell, Ian gritted his teeth giving Hugo a deathly stare as if wanted to drill a hole in his body.

If eyes can kill, Ian wanted to kill this guy beside him a hundred times.

Hugo lowered his head in embarrassment.

"What the hell? Stop behaving shyly and tell me if you are in danger."

"No, there isn't?"Hugo waved his head hurriedly but as he tried to answer, Ian took the lead.

"It's all because of this dumb shit," Ian screamed pointing at Hugo startling Aeon.

Aeon for a moment even pondered if this was the same nilly-will-shy mage who was crying when he met Lord for the first time.

"This guy used too much explosive and we were injured because of that blast. If not for me using the barrier spell and safety talisman awarded by the Lord to craft additional barriers, we wouldn't even have ashes left behind for cremation."

Cough....Cough....

Hugo coughed, giving an innocent look.

"This is my first battle so I didn't know the amount of explosives to be used."

"And this is also going to be your last if I was not here."Ian snorted boldly.

Aeon took a deep sigh.

"Both of you stop, bickering, we have things to do."Aeon raised his hand to calm them down.

"Casualties."

"29, out of which 18 were from Hugo's side "Ian answered sharply.

Aeon wanted to speak when his senses screamed in danger.

"Boys, you all seemed to be too careless."A chuckling sound echoed.

"A mythic rank."Aeon's senses screamed.

"Damn, the enemy had a Mythic rank."

The entire battle came to stand still for a moment as heavy pressure crashed onto them forcing them to fall onto their knees.
