Chapter 180 Impact

During the past years, Aria hadn't changed much. Her personality was still a mystery to many as she hardly talked to anyone. Her appearanced remained unchanged, still spotting her emotionless expression.

Aria seemed to think for a few seconds before eventually nodding. n).OvelB1n

Then without wasting any more time, Atticus manipulated the earth underneath Aria and the 200+ other youths who claimed to be long rangers to the top of the elevated platform he had erected.

Atticus, without a word also controlled the earth under the 800+ youths, moving them away from their initial positions to the front of the hill.

Atticus then turned to look at the Ravenstein youths, giving them a nod.

They all nodded back, understanding their roles and started walking toward the front of where the other youths were lined up.

They each stood at the front lines confidently, looking down at the hill, anticipating the impending battle.

Many of the youths who were already trembling slightly seemed to calm down as they saw the Ravenstein youths standing in front of them.

It calmed many of them down seeing that Atticus wasn't planning on using them as cannon fodder at the front lines. This was what most of them had expected when Atticus had declared he was the strongest.

Atticus nodded, seeing that everything was in place. He suddenly remembered a certain red eyed girl and then, focusing on the earth element, Atticus manipulated the earth and a figure suddenly emerged from the earth along with a burst of steam.

Aurora's form was emitting steam as she locked her piercing red eyes on Atticus.

"Aurora, now's not the time for this. They're almost here," Atticus said, trying hard to stop himself from laughing while looking at Aurora.

Her whole body was covered in dirt, her white hair completely messy.

Aurora clenched her fist hard, the hot steam emanating from her body intensifying, 'This bastard!' She thought inwardly.

They had gotten close, less than one minute away.

The ground quaked intensively as the horde of monsters drew nearer, the intense tremors echoed through the ground, reaching the summit of the hill where every youth stood with weapons at the ready.

Each of them gripped their swords tighter, their hands sweaty and trembling, anticipation etched on their faces for the impending clash.

Then, on the horizon, they each saw it.

Wolf like beasts, their fur as black as the night, eyes glowing a malevolent red, and teeth gleaming with a deadly sharpness.

Each individual creature stood no taller than an average dog, yet the sheer number of the approaching horde was enough to make teddy bears look scary.

The trembling of the youths intensified even more as they witnessed the ferocious forms of the approaching creatures, a shiver running down their spines

Atticus, who was currently in the air, heaved a small sigh of relief seeing the approaching beasts.

Due to the distance, Atticus hadn't been able to tell the ranks of the beasts, but now that they were closer, from a glance, Atticus could see that they were mostly Intermediate-rank, with only a few being intermediate rank.

If this was their strength, then they could manage somehow.

Atticus also turned his gaze around the expanse, seeing them approaching from all sides of the platform.

The earth trembled violently as the horde rapidly advanced.

Then, the first line of beasts crashed into the earthen spikes Atticus had erected, impaling their forms and splattering blood and gore everywhere.

However, this did little to halt the relentless onslaught of thousands of monsters.

The earthen spikes were soon overwhelmed as the creatures broke through.

Next in line was the earthen trench. Hundreds of monsters tumbled into the trench, their bodies brutally impaled by the earth spikes below.
