Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

Chapter 424: Throwing away

When the human army began to move again, they soon realized that the temperature around them was dropping…. the clouds in the sky were also changing and getting thicker… before long, they received the orders to march as soon as possible since Rain was cooking something troublesome again.

They were right… the human army began to march, but before long, snow began to fall on the battlefield and made the whole place get a colder… but it was hard to imagine what Rain was going to do with that alone. The anger and grief of the humans after losing the commander of the royal guards fueled their hearts and warmed them up.

When the human army was about to reach the magic people, they were attacked by a barrage of water spears… that didn't slow them down that much, at least the impacts didn't, thanks to their shields… but the fact that some soldiers were getting wet while the temperature was dropping was concerning.

"Charge!" Josar shouted.

The martial artists and the mercury warriors charged toward the enemies without hesitation, and even in the darkness of the night, they could see some humans with their faces blue and with their bodies trembling… they chose to attack those.

With their malevolent grins, the magic people turned their attention to the human soldiers who were shivering in the cold. They knew that these soldiers' armor wouldn't offer much protection against the biting frostbite. With malicious intent, they unleashed their fury agaisnt them.

The chilling winds, added with their blazing fury, were aimed at exploiting the vulnerability of those unable to fend off thanks to their trembling bodies.

The areas where the martial artists and mercury warriors were attacking were being ignored by the water snipers. Still, even so, their numbers weren't high enough to fend off all the armies that were approaching… around five of them on each side were passing by the holes in the ground and moving to attack the corners of the capital.

"They are coming in fast…" Terra said with her arms crossed.

"Well, I can see that," Rain said. "I need some more time…"

"Can't you use the water on the ground? The ones that the water snipers fired?" Terra asked.

"Controlling clouds isn't easy, you know," Rain said. "Besides, the other side isn't exactly filled with brain-dead idiots."

Mages from the back of the human army started to shoot fireballs. They crossed the battlefield in an arc and then eventually began to hit some magic people and increase the temperature around them.

Rain knew that such a thing would happen, and he also knew what would happen next… It didn't take long before the whole battlefield was slowly taken by a mist… the soldiers with their shields were able to push away some of the mist, but not all of it, and certainly not fast enough.

Before long, half of the battlefield was taken by the mist, and soon, the humans realized that it was the worst combination… the darkness of the night and the fog.

The magic people moved forward and used their best attacks to attack and kill as many soldiers as possible before the other armies reached the city, but the humans just raised their shields and blocked those attacks with ease… However, soon, they started to fall one after the other…

The human soldiers that were preparing to cross the mist soon realized that something was off… they couldn't see it. Still, they could see the sound of their allies falling… before long, some soldiers fell out of the mist, and their bodies showed what had happened… all of them had wounds on their heads… small size wounds that were barely the size of needles, but it had been enough to kill them.

"Fall back! Don't cross the mist!"

Many more soldiers soon understood that only those inside the mist were being attacked for one reason or the other, so they began to retreat and waited for the fog to dissipate… but that didn't happen. Only a lot of heat would do that… Moreover, the mist began to move toward the human camp, and they realized that only one person could do that…

The humans were correct; Rain was indeed manipulating the mist on the battlefield. This particular mist, unlike a typical body of water, posed a unique challenge to control. It demanded intense focus and concentration. Nevertheless, it served as the perfect tool for pinpointing the locations of his enemies.

When Rain identified their positions, he would condense a portion of the mist, shaping it into a water bullet that he could launch precisely at his intended target. It didn't matter whether the enemies hid behind their shields; Rain had the ability to make the water bullet materialize wherever he desired, ensuring his accuracy and ability to strike effectively.

…

"Almost there…." Rain thought.

Rain was planning to turn the mist into a large water body and then dig around the camp of the enemies again, but things didn't go as he had planned completely.

Some of the special soldiers that had left with their other armies returned to that area and then fired a massive wave of flames that heated up the area and then dissipated the mist. Still… a pinch is a chance…

Rain suddenly disappeared, and in the next moment, he appeared in front of one of those special soldiers and then pierced their chest… Rain felt a bit bad since he only now realized that he had chosen a woman, but he didn't have time to think about that… Rain pulled his arm and then left an ice spear at the wound before he threw the enemy in the distance.

Rain had expected that he would make the enemy cross the anti-magic barrier, but she actually stopped midair, right above the barrier, and then she exploded.
