War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 43

…

Inside the dark cavern, Xin Ja and Agatha walked along with a few of the Rank-B and Rank-C soldiers who came along on this mission.

Most of them are wearing the Goliath Suits, but there are those who did not want to wear the suit and they only number a few alongside Xin Ja and Agatha.

As the group walked deeper, they soon heard a few sounds coming ahead of them.

Three figures are leading the group. One of them is a demon, and the two are Rank-B awakened with the long-range perception ability just like spiritual sense.

The three signaled for the group to stop as they all lowered themselves to the ground.

As they watch, they saw something that made everyone feel worried. This is because inside this cave there are actually hundreds of mindless demons gathered that look like silver humanoid ants.

A female demon who is squatting near Xin Ja suddenly gasped in a low tone.

"Those… those are artificial demons…" she said with a hint of disbelief in her eyes.

"I heard that they failed this experiment… But I guess they did not…" she added.

"Those things are like puppets… though it is not as strong as possession, it is enough to exhibit about 60% of a Shadow Being's true power once they enter those things…" another one chimed in.

"So you mean… they are actually planning to use those things to attack the city…" Xin Ja suddenly asked.

The two demons squatting near him nodded their heads.

"Then the more we should destroy this place… What are we waiting for?" Agatha suddenly asked as she suddenly extended her arms and a powerful aura appears.

It seems that she did not want to use her weapon and would rather use her fist in this battle.

Poom!!!

The strong energy coming out of her body actually pushes the air around her making some of the soldiers who are squatting stagger.

Then without warning, she jumps out of their hiding place and suddenly charges at the demons.

"You look stronger… Then you will be my opponent!" she shouted as she confronted one of the supposed generals of Yol-gar.

That person is wearing a hooded cloak that covers his body. As that person detected the presence of a powerful individual, he quickly reacted.

Boom!!!

Two fists collided and created a powerful sonic boom that shook the whole cavern.

When Xin Ja saw this, he could not help but shake his head as he takes out a few bone runes and gave them to the soldiers around him.

"Do not lose that thing if you don't want to lose consciousness in this place…" he warned.

This place is like the one where he first had an encounter with the demons. In that battle, he was able to save Cohan Vale and the other Rank-B. So, just in case something might happen, he decided to give them protection against the effect of the dream stone formation.

As the fight between Agatha and the figure which is actually a 5-feet-tall man with a bulky build progresses, the restriction made by those Shadow Beings to create a small unstable portal in here is being torn apart.

It won't be long before the restriction would be released and the power of this place would engulf the consciousness of everyone in this cave.

"They truly can tap on the energy this thing is producing…" Xin Ja muttered as he studied the formation that these demons have created.

Back then, before he rescued Cohan Vale, he also noticed this formation. But it was vague and not that clear for him as Nedona has already removed the restriction.

But now that he had seen it, he could now tell how they are able to create the portal. He just needs to study it more so that he could pinpoint the right location of the planet where the Shadow Beings are staying.

If he is able to discover the right coordinates, then there would get a chance for him to attack the enemy on their own turf.

With such a plan, Xin Ja expanded his Absolute Sense and began learning the portal technique and the right coordination of the portal through the runes and the arrays around this cave.

Ka-Boom!!!

Suddenly, a figure was sent flying to the ground which created a small crater.

Inside that crater is the figure of Agatha who suddenly grumbles as she glares at the man ahead of her.

"Hehe… You are the strongest of the group… If you cannot defeat me, then what can you do with my army…" the man said with an eerie smile on his face.

The man looks a bit weird as his face actually did not have any expressions. Except for that eerie grin on his, no other expressions can be seen on his face.

Suddenly…

Crack!!!

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

The man's jaw dislocated on itself and then a bunch of razor-sharp teeth began to appear on his gums which push out his normal teeth.

Then his mouth became wider as his skin was torn apart making him able to widen his bite.

"Since you came here… Then you should be very pleased to become my meal. It is your honor to be devoured by me… Arnas… the devourer of worlds…" the man said as his body slowly changes.

His skin slowly turned black as he transformed into a frightening giant.

Though it might look like Agatha was defeated by the guy, in truth, she actually won this battle.

The reason for this is that the man actually suffered more hits on his body which forced him to transform into his Shadow Being's true form.

Xin Ja could tell that the enemy is actually putting his all into this battle. This only means that the opponent is now going to be serious in this fight.

"Attack them… Kill them all…" he suddenly commanded in an eerie tone.

As soon as he did, the humanoid ants began moving. Just like an army of ten thousand, when the ants began to move, the ground began to shake.

Their unison marching is a bit unnerving and has the feeling of danger in it.

"Defend yourself! Open fire!" shouted the captain of the soldiers behind Xin Ja.

With that command, the soldiers take out their MCAW weapons and began firing at the charging enemy.

Luckily the tunnel area where they are hiding is a bit cramped, for that reason, the ant army is unable to swarm them and the group is able to shoot them one by one.

But then… who would have known that below the soldiers the ground would suddenly tremble and something huge began to break the earth.

A few unlucky soldiers fall into that hole and were directly swallowed by the gigantic creature that looks like a beetle.

The rest began to indiscriminately shoot at the giant beetle below them while the rest fights against the ants.

Xin Ja threw out a few bone runes and formed a barrier around the soldiers.

However, as soon as the barrier got activated, the ground suddenly shook and the bone runes were swallowed by the earth.

"Damn… How many of these large things do they have?" Xin Ja curses while glaring at the giant beetle.

Meanwhile, Agatha and the man, who now has transformed into a monster, once again clashed creating powerful sonic booms inside the cave.

The cave wall began to crumble as the battle continues.

Suddenly…

Crash!!!

The sound of something breaking shook the whole cave.

Then Xin Ja could see the power of the original formation permeating through the cave.

Everyone knew that if they are trapped in his place, then they would surely die in the dreamland. They are not even confident of the bone rune talisman that was given to them.

When Arnas saw what is happening, he quickly dodges the punch from Agatha and then sent her retreating with a single kick which Agatha was able to defend.

"Shriek!!!" Arnas suddenly shrieked out loud which made the rest of the ants stop attacking.

Then they all dive down the hole that the giant beetle has already created before disappearing.

Those that are late were caught by the mist which has already enveloped the whole cave.

"Run!!!" someone from the soldiers shouted as he began running towards the exit of the cave.

Those unlucky ants that were hit by the mist have already fallen to the ground, meanwhile, the rest have already escaped underground.

The portal that they were opening has already halted and only a palm size void hole could be seen.

By this time, the soldiers have already panicked as they too began escaping.

But who would have known the ground would suddenly crumble before they could reach the exit of the main cave inside?

Large rocks fell inside covering the inner exit of the cave.

The soldiers who were unlucky were buried under the rocks. Those that are wearing the Goliath Suit might still have a chance to survive the ordeal. But those without would have already died under the tons of rocks.

Xin Ja could not help but grit his teeth in annoyance as the enemy is truly cunning and strong. But he did not have time to chase after them.

He instead decided to save as many soldiers as he could.
