Chapter 234: Ancient Giant

It was dark, it was night time, and no sound could be heard in the area except the sounds of the army moving. Everyone could see with their naked eyes that the wear, dullness and tear in the passage was beginning to heal.

In short, at any moment the portal could suddenly open, at any moment thousands of monsters could leap out of the portal.

James knew that Ruby, the bird in his head, was in good shape, which meant that a large-scale attack was possible. It was an attack that could help the friendly side. The fact that she was able to use her Aura of Chaos ability on top of that and that she also had the Heaven's Call ability on top of that was a big plus.

James had hidden these abilities because he thought that the war would not end, after all, these abilities would be what he would use if they had to escape.

But now everything had changed, James had to end the war here, today, and he was ready to do anything for it.

Anything at all.

The ear-piercing cracking sound had reappeared, clearly the portal was beginning to unlock fully. It was as if a huge iceberg was breaking off from one end to the other, a sound so deep and rough that it was hard to describe.

It was enough just to listen to the sound:

"GROOOOAN----GRRRINDD---CRACK!!!"

After the succession of sounds, cracks began to appear from the top to the bottom of the passage, this was very similar to the cracks that had formed when James had used his ability to destroy the small passage before, but the difference between them seemed to be understood only by feeling.

It was as if the locking 'ice' on the gate had begun to thaw.

"CRASH!!!" Stay connected via m-v l|e'm,p| y- r

With a sudden breaking sound, a fist passed through the gate. An arm grabbed the gate itself and then an eye looked out of the gate.

Everyone, including James, was shocked by this sight. There was literally an ancient giant staring at them from the other side of the portal, and even James himself thought that these monsters were extinct.

The giant didn't look that big, maybe 50 or 55 metres tall, but even that was enough to frighten anyone who saw it.

As the passage slowly began to open, orders began to move through the army and defensive formations were being set up.

James turned to Eve beside him and said, "Please try not to die, Lady Eve."

The ancient giant inside the passage came into clear view and the sight of hundreds of monsters, large and small, closer to the ground was visible to everyone.

Seconds ticked by, and everyone could feel their hearts beating incredibly hard with fear. Yet there was nothing any of them could do, either they could stop this giant and the other monsters here, or everyone--and that's the perfect word for it--would die.

Weapons were drawn, everyone was ready, and the first attack would not come from them, and that is why they had the idea that the battle would be easy.

Exactly 160 attack runes had been drawn in such a short time. This meant that arcana mages would be the cornerstone of this battle.

"CRASH!!!"

Another crashing sound echoed in the ears and it all began.

Tens, hundreds, thousands of monsters started to come out of the gate. The ancient giant threw one foot out of the portal at that moment and fear descended to the earth.

With that, James decided to start the plan, activated his 8 Sacred Fire skill, and then, as soon as he covered his entire arm with black flames, he threw the flames into the sky, a little bit near the ancient giant.

This symbolised the target to be shot at.

As the jet-black flames approached the ancient giant, an incredibly loud explosion sounded from far away.

"BOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!!"

This sound was close to the explosion sound of an atomic bomb.

After this sound rose from the sky towards the horizon, attacks from exactly 160 attack runes began to advance in the air.

The distance between the runes and the gate was almost four kilometres, but despite this, the incredible speed of the runes began to appear in the air in just five seconds. Sёarᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Crimson attack types suddenly appeared in front of the ancient giant, and almost every single attack managed to hit the ancient giant.

"GUUUUAGKKHHH!!!!!!"

The ancient giant began to scream, it was obvious that it was in a lot of pain.

The explosion had created a huge cloud of flames above the ancient giant, it was obvious that the giant had been damaged, but that was all, the over a hundred attack runes that had hit the giant had failed to kill it.

Nevertheless, the ancient giant was injured, and with that, naturally, it became angry.

When James realised this, there was only one thing to do. As soon as the attack flags went up, everyone started to mobilise.

James activated his dark step ability and started running directly at the ancient giant without even thinking about attacking any monsters.

With each step, he left a trail of black flames behind him and dodged the monsters as if he were dancing.

After only three minutes and continuous use of his dark stepping ability, James had managed to get close to the ancient giant, and with that, he strangely grabbed onto the ancient giant's feathers.

Even though he was incredibly disgusted, he still had to climb upwards.

"If I live after this battle is over, I won't get out of the shower for ten days!" shouted James, trying hard not to vomit as he climbed up.

The ancient giant was of course moving and strangely ignoring the whole army and trying to move somewhere, which was bad news.

If the ancient giant tried to move in this way and had chosen a place as its target, it was imperative to kill it quickly so that it did not get there.
