Chapter 429 Letting Loose (3)
Fatima's right arm is the one usually used when switching modes. Like the rifle, taking up her entire hand up to her shoulder and converting it into the rifle's body. Or like the machine gun earlier, which extended from below her elbow, like a sort of attachment equipped on her arm.
However, the bigger ones, like the Howitzer M1, whose entire body length covers a little shy of 30 meters from the tip of the barrel to the end of the support legs, were practically summoned out of thin air.
Although Fatima wasn't physically connected to it, the weapon was still undoubtedly a part of her.
"Everyone, move out of the way if you don't want to suffer!"
Fatima didn't bother to explain, as she simply warned those around her. The ones she was talking to were the tamers and monsters that were within a few dozen meters of her.
From that distance, they too would end up getting affected by the impact of the shots. It's not fatal, nor would it cause injuries to those at their level, but it could still cause them discomfort.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
Most of the nearby tamers listened to her warning, but a few monsters didn't feel the need to move. Fatima acknowledged them but simply sighed. She quickly took a 100-kg shell out of the Storage Ring on her and loaded it into the artillery.
Since the enemies were on the ground, Fatima adjusted the angle to be as low a curve as possible before pulling the large trigger without a hint of hesitation.
*BOOOM!*
A loud explosion echoed, whose impact made the few monsters nearby brace themselves as they were pushed back a few steps. The shell flew out of the long barrel at speeds faster than sound, causing a sonic boom as it flew in a low arc.
Fatima watched as the shell hit a few god-level demons along its path before finally landing a few kilometers away and causing a powerful explosion, wiping out all the god-level demons within a half-kilometer radius of ground zero.
"Confirmed hit. Moving on to the next target."
Fatima announced this to nobody in particular as she turned the muzzle to face a different direction this time. At this point, the few monsters that didn't listen to her warning at first scrambled to get away from her.
With accustomed movements, she turned the artillery, loaded the next shell, and fixed the aim's elevation. Then...
*BOOOM!*
As she rampaged, the demons that were approaching visibly dwindled in number. And as they were all turned into ashes, only the slightly singed crystals were left behind on the scene.
If viewed from up in the air, treating the demon wave like a large black blot on a clean piece of paper, then Igni was an eraser that was slowly deleting the black stain!
Soon enough, Igni reached deep enough into the enemy formation. She wasn't tired, nor was she injured, a proof of just how powerful she was compared to the god-level demon enemies.
"This should be far enough..."
Igni whispered as she checked her distance from the walls. Although the walls looked like a small dot on the horizon now, that was just barely outside her range.
"Now, feel the power of the domain that My Lord named for me! [Hell's Flame Dominion]!"
Responding to her declaration, the ground around her began to shake, rumbling as if an earthquake were occurring. This happened for the entire field within a 10-kilometer radius of her position. An extremely wide AOE!
Soon, the rocks were vibrating so fast that they turned fiery red before melting into a sea of lava. The demons who were on the ground couldn't help but get swallowed by it!
The ones that could fly survived the initial chaos by escaping to the sky, but soon enough, they lost control of their flight. The heat from the ground was making the air less dense and making those who were flying using physical means fall to the ground and sink into the lava like the others.
Only the ones that float without regard to air or motion remained afloat.
Igni looked at them and frowned. Although she managed to kill tens of thousands of demons in one go, she failed to slay everything that was within her domain.
"... Although I can still use the second function of my [Hell's Flame Dominion] to catch those pesky flies, the energy expense compared to the return isn't worth it."
Igni muttered to herself, reflecting on her mistake.
"But just because you're flying doesn't mean you're safe!"
Igni lowered her body as she spread her flaming wings, and in one go, she leaped into the air!
