Chapter 1062 A Fight of the Era (1)

A chilling wind swept across the desolate plain.

On the vast expanse of the promised battlefield, two armies faced one another.

Both their ranks stretched as far as the eye could see.

Enveloping the air was the choking tension of silence—broken only by the sound of marching sound from the approaching army belonging to Humanity. All of the best were gathered onto this ragged plain to fight in this deciding battle.

It was a tableau of different regiments, all had fought for humanity since the world changed.

Leading the charge was the conventional military with their armored vehicles and personnel, fearlessly advancing to the face of death. Each land machinery rumbled with the raw power of development, while aircraft blocked the sun in the sky.

Anything that stood in their way would be flattened into the earth.

Just the sheer might of their firepower would be able to scare countries in the modern past.

Furthermore, their assembly was bolstered by the Awakened—consisting of those belonging to the guilds and also the Cessation Knights. Rising to power, the Black Hands were brought along as a guarantee to their victory.

Each one of them was clad in white and pale blue full armor.

An army of strong, magical soldiers.

Instead of waving the flag and banner of the Elpida Alliance, the army carried a different flag.

Scattered across the army is the dark purple flag held high with a black all-seeing eye and a laurel wreath below it, a flag that was recognized almost by all Supernaturals present. Rex is the only one who doesn't recognize the flag.

"What does the flag represent? Why the strong reaction?" Rex asked Carmilla on the side.

He saw all Demons and Vampires react strongly to this.

Even though there was no signal to attack from him, the Vampires and Demons were poised on the edge of their toes, itching to charge at the opposing army upon the sight of this flag, showing that the flag held great significance.

On top of that, Rex could even see Carmilla had her expression twisted hideously.

It was clear that even she was bothered by the flag.

Noticing that Carmilla was not answering, Rex continued, "Is it the Ancient Human's flag?"

"No, it's not," She eventually replied, her eyes glowing deadly red. "It's the Executor's flag—a flag displayed whenever they were coming to enact punishment on us, Supernaturals. One of the memories that were hard to forget,"

Upon hearing this, Rex frowned, but his lips curled into a sadistic smile.

An intimidation display... Good job, Fifthborn. For a being that was born with strength, the Executor naturally is an expert in intimidation.

He may lack a lot of things that Rex considered as important to make someone considered a strong individual, but always living life at the peak also taught him other handy things. One is being displayed by the Executor directly right now, intimidation.

Soon enough, the opposing army came to a halt a distance away.

Only Rex's forces were standing in the way of the opposing army to reach their destination.

Rex squinted his eyes and observed the opposing army—he found that despite the prepared battalions that were slowing their movements, their numbers were still robust. Additionally, it was clear that there was something unseen by the naked eyes enveloping them.

A foreboding air was emanated by even the regular humans, making Rex feel uneasy.

Just then, Maltrox on the left, glanced at Rex peculiarly.

"Five strong auras, they are one individual short," He said after analyzing the opposing army.

Upon hearing this, Rex nodded in understanding.

It's as expected, they are one person short. Lyra could handle herself, I'm sure.

Meanwhile, Caarmilla also scrutinized the opposing army before a look of surprise came to her face. As she processed her thoughts, a faint smile played on her lips, 'I have my doubts but he's exactly right, the people there were exactly as he predicted. A good sign...'

Immediately after she thought that a bubble of purple energy came from the center.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on that bubble.

His thick view of himself as the chosen one could be seen from the arrogance on his face.

Instead of the Executor, Brigitta quickly commanded her side of the army.

"Open fire! Bombard them before they can even get close!" She commanded loudly.

Reacting quickly to her command, multiple mobile artilleries and aircraft fired their enhanced missiles that soared through the sky with a sharp sound that irritated the ear. Rex looked up and saw the horizon bristled with a cascade of missiles, converging upon them like a flock of vengeful birds.

Each one is a harbinger of destruction, carrying heavy explosives.

Such a sight would be horrendous for most people in the world, but not to Rex.

"Maltrox, Carmilla, begin your war spells. I'll deal with this," Rex said before he leaped up.

Nodding their heads, Maltrox and Carmilla went to work.

In each battle that happened in the ancient era, there will always be a Field Spell that would be used to amplify the strength of the fighting army. One of the reasons why the Enchanters are extremely important for any Supernatural race.

As Maltrox went to inform the Demon Enchanters, Carmilla did another thing.

Going to one knee, she placed her hand on the ground.

Pausing to steady her breathing, she shut her eyes, allowing the dark blood energy to course through her veins, staining even the blood vessels around her eyes with inky blackness. Her body was wracked with a jolt of power, her astral form swayed with the rhythm of the wind.

Eventually, she began her chant.

"I am the shadow of the blood realm, O' Origin, bless me with the might to fuel your children with the blade of blood. Help me unleash a show befitting of the true Vampires of the past..."

Upon chanting the incantation, Carmilla's eyes jolted open, "Raargghh!!"

She roared an astral roar and infused her energy into the earth.

Not only the chosen commander for this battle, Carmilla was also one of the high Enchanters of the Vampire race with countless battles on her belt. Possessing a one-of-a-kind blessing from the Vampire Origin called the Shadow of the Blood Realm, she's an apex Enchanter.

Only a handful could match or even surpass her in terms of Field Spell.

Reacting to her influence, her black blood energy spreads like wildfire across the battlefield.

In a mere heartbeat, her black blood energy reached the focal point of contention between Rex and the Executor. Likewise, the other Vampire Enchanters, their astral forms ablaze with power, contributed to the augmentation of Carmilla's Field Spell.

All of them chanted, beckoning their Origin to give them strength for this crucial battle.

Meanwhile, Rex soared to the sky in the face of the swarm of missiles.

Devo! Come out, you're up!

Calling for his handy spirit, Devo manifested behind him with the full power of lightning.

Infusing the spirit energy that had already reached a scary degree, probably the strongest in the current world, the surface of Rex's body immediately started to crack with lightning, the sole testament to reaching unification with Devo.

Nodding his head, he looked back at the swarm of missiles and smirked.

Flowing his arcane lightning mana into his mouth, Rex lets out another thunderous roar.

He activated his Blitzing Lightning skill which was now way stronger.

Compared to the last time he used it, capable of only encompassing thirty meters or so, the lightning shockwave he unleashed from his mouth now extended exponentially, engulfing a vast area spanning approximately a mile.

It was big enough to cover the sky above the Supernatural army.

Each strand of lightning he unleashed blocked the missiles and detonated them mid-way.

Despite the explosion being so powerful that it trembled the air, and created a sound that was loud enough to rattle Rex's eardrums, none of them were able to pierce through Rex's form, giving enough time for the Supernatural army to prepare.

After doing that, he gazed down and saw that the Field Spell was nearing its completion.

Nodding, he raised and pointed Amuerus Katana at the opposing army.

"Charge!!"
