War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 4

…

The battle between the demons and the humans has erupted to such a degree that many of the soldiers stationed around the valley are experiencing a lot of casualties even with their awakened strength.

The demons seem to enjoy eating the fallen soldiers especially reaching through their bodies and taking out a strange glowing object from within their stomachs.

Although in most times, these things are not visible through the naked eye, once taken out from the body, the Shin core of the awakened would be exposed and become visible.

Those demons that could eat the cores of these fallen soldiers would then become stronger and obtain the awakened power of their victims.

So the stronger the victim that would fall, the stronger the demon would be.

And this growth is a boost to the effect of the chaotic Ki from the world itself.

Hence this is the reason why the demons are growing to such a degree that they are as powerful as the awakened beings in this world.

The jump is like a mortal turning into a god, and to some degree and for an unknown reason, the demons are actually able to succeed in such a feat.

But the thing is that, in contrary to the condition of the demons, those Shadow Beings are not as lucky. If a Shadow Being casually devours a Shin core, then their shadow body would explode to bits and pieces. They have to use hundreds of years just to refine a single core before devouring it.

For that reason, they are creating the portals to make the Ki enter the world that they are staying in right now.

While the battle is happening in the valley, the tall woman and the other high-ranking draconian look in the direction where Xin Ja went and showed a slight smile on her face.

"What an interesting young human… But I guess, he would also be falling into an eternal sleep after all… He might have eluded my scent attack, but in that place… he has no way of escape… I'll just come back and take you with me after my mission is done…" she said in draconian language.

The others behind her suddenly felt shivers running down their spine after hearing her words. Though she is not as strong as they are in battles, she has a strange way of fighting that could render them helpless.

That is the reason why she is their leader and she is the one assigned specifically to this mission by the new dragon king Amenadon.

"Let's go…" she said as she turns around and left the valley.

…

Meanwhile, the area where Xin Ja set up the barrier is now filled with wounded people. The rest of the C-Rank awakened who have survived this onslaught by the demons now slaughtering the demons with all their might while inside the safe zone.

The demons are mindless creatures without their leaders who have already left the area, so they would attack the humans in their sight but would still get killed after a bout of confusion.

"Where is Adam?!" asked one of the C-Ranks at Dozer.

Dozer shrugged his shoulder as he did not know where that guy really went to.

But the one who answered that C-Rank is a wounded soldier sitting with the wounded in the middle of the formation array.

"I… I think he went after the leaders. I say him enter that weird place…" the soldier said in a low voice.

"What? If those higher ranks were not able to return after entering that place until now, how could a mere C-Rank like him could come out?" the C-Rank awakened and grumbled in annoyance as he suddenly threw out a spear made of earth crafted by Dozer.

Although he is a C-Rank he has not awakened any elemental power. He only has his strength and wits before him which made him one of the strongest C-Rank in this group.

"Hehe… You underestimate that guy. Look at what he has created in here. This is truly a magical place and a very strange defensive technique…" Dozer suddenly said while looking at the space they are in right now.

"Humph… Although this is amazing, what if it is hit by a powerful explosion? Will this formation stills stand?" the C-Rank guy interjected.

"Why are you so bitter, man? Be glad that you are able to live because of this…" Dozer sneered.

The rest of the soldiers also nodded their heads.

By this time a soldier runs towards Dozer while panting.

"Sir, that side has run out of ammo…" he reported.

With a shake of his hand, the rocks on the ground moved and then crumbled into pieces. Then they slowly formed into several hundred bolts within a minute.

It is not only Dozer who is doing this as another C-Rank with the power of the earth is also crafting bolts for the MCAWS. The trees are not effective against the demons, but the rocks and the metal ore in the area are more effective against them.

"By the way… where did these weapons come from?" asked the C-Rank who is grumbling at Dozer.

"It was given to us by Adam…" Dozer replied with a slight smirk.

He too was astonished at the weapon's power to project bolts. He wanted to take apart one of these weapons for study purposes, but he is not that bright to do so. Maybe after this war, he could talk to Adam about it though.

From such a thing, he could smell a big profit coming.

After crafting about 300 bolts Dozer looks at the pile of rocks and ore he has gotten his hand on from within the confine of his power. When he saw the pile he just nods his head as he is not worried about them lacking any ammunition.

The day is already slowly dying when the battle has finally stopped. Around the safe zone, corpses of demons are strewn all over the place.

Although they are safe inside, they could not help but still feel fear towards those things.

No one dare go out as they have not received any command from the higher-ups at this time.

…

Meanwhile, inside the camouflage array near the stiff mountainside, Xin Ja carefully enters the place.

As soon as he passes through the camouflage array, he could already tell what kind of array they were. He could only shake his head as he considered the array a low-quality array from the lower realms.

However, he did not look down on it.

The reason for this is because… this is the basis of all camouflage arrays that he is currently using.

Without this simple array, the advanced camouflage array he has learned would not exist.

Plus, it is still considered one of the most effective basic camouflage arrays even in this world.

As he walks deeper into the area, he has already noticed the grotto.

But as soon as he was about to take a step towards the grotto, his HUD has already displayed a warning.

'Warning: Effect of the Dream Stone is detected…'

When he saw that, he almost immediately felt his back becoming drenched in a cold sweat.

But then he suddenly wonders why those demons are not affected by the Dream Stone effect.

"Analyze the Dream Stone aura…" he commanded.

Meanwhile, he quickly spreads his Absolute Sense in the area.

As soon as he did, he immediately noticed something and heaved a sigh of relief.

The effect of the Dream Stone would only start once he enters that grotto.

Although the aura is spread even outside, it will not have an effect on him.

With that discovery, he continues walking towards the mouth of the cave.

Looking around the area, he has already used his Absolute Sense to scan it and his eyes lit up when he found something on the wall.

"Ah… This is a mystic chant to protect one's mind against the effect of the Dream Stone…" he thought after reading some of the symbols on the wall.

Without hesitation, he quickly chanted the words which are considered rune words and a strange sensation came to his mind. He could feel the Ki flow going to his mind and then he felt strange.

It was like the Ki flow covered his brain with a thin filament of Ki.

With that, he gritted his teeth and then takes a step forward and enters the cave.

As soon as he did, he immediately felt the strange aura bearing down on him. But it did not take long before that aura vanishes.

He knew that if he did not have that chant, then he would have a hard time resisting that aura. But of course, he became interested in the effect of the Dream Stone and how big was it that it could have such strong pressure against him.

It did not take long before Xin Ja could notice three figures lying on the side of the cave wall.

His eyes quickly landed on the woman wearing a blood-stained T-shirt and shorts. His eyes landed on her wound which made him frown deeply.

"Hmm… She… She is already dying due to loss of blood…" he muttered and quickly darted to her side.

Without hesitation, he picks out a white pill from his ring and then puts that pill on her wound. The white pill suddenly turned red before slowly seeping into the wound in her stomach.
