130 Chapter 130
In the sky, two mages wearing fox masks can be seen. One was of a snow fox and the other was a brownish red fox
They are the two Imperial Lords of the Twighlight Beast and they are here to bring the downfall of Greenwood City!
On the neck of these two mages was what it looks like a curse mark. It was black in color that was lightly glowing
This is the curse mark that the titled members of the Twighlight Beast have so that they would not be affected by the poisonous mist that engulfs the Greenwood City
Around Space Fox were three mystic gems with power far above those of average mages
They have the element of Space, Fire, and Lightning
Above these two mages was an electric blue large magic circle that covered almost the entirety of Greenwood City
This magic circle constantly releases streaks of lightning that attack everything indiscriminately
Whether it be buildings and other infrastructures or humans, the streaks of lightning with a world-ending power would attack them
The might of a 6th fusion rank mage is more than enough to ravage an entire city. They are entities that are at the top of the secular world for a reason
The lethality and range of their spells were far above the others. A human city could only keep its peace and safety if there were 6th fusion rank mages guarding it
Near Space Fox was another Imperial Lord called Snow Fox. Just like Space Fox, she also has her mystic gems on standby both of which are blue in color
While Space Fox is responsible for maintaining the lightning attacks, Snow Fox on the other hand is there to keep her safe
Attacking a human city after all is no small matter especially if their goal was to take control of it while banishing the protectors
A single moment of carelessness could result in their deaths
The eyes of these two mages stared at the scene happening on the ground
On the ground, thousands of giant frogs as tall as a three-story building can be seen. They have slimy brown skin with bloated stomachsjosei
It has a long and disgusting pinkish tongue that swept through the corpses of the dead humans around them
These magic beasts are something that Rezen had already seen once. They were the Corpse-lover Giant Frogs!
They can store a large number of dead bodies in their bulging stomachs and with the number of humans dying every second, Greenwood City is like a banquet hall for them
Along with the Corpse-lover Giant Frogs were the members of the Twighlight Beasts
Some of them were wearing masks while the others don’t as there was no need
“Hahahaha! Kill!” An entity that was neither a man nor a magic beast laughed heartily
He has a humanoid appearance but his face was close to that of a horse. Even his legs packed a terrifying power as if they can smash the earth’s crust in one attack
This creature has long spiky hair the color and hardness of steel
This is a human that uses the Twighlight Beast’s Werebeast Nuclei and his chosen creature was that of a Steel-haired Horse
This creature that was neither a human nor a magic beast attacked indiscriminately. His physique was boosted to almost the same level as magic beasts yet his magical prowess was also buffed to an extent
With the help of his legs, he moved very quickly and one civilian after another died because of his doing
Not far from this Werebeast was yet another werebeast. This time, it was a creature with an upper body of a human and a lower body of a spider
She even has more than ten eyes, looking disgusting yet every silk that she spat through her stomach corroded one human after another
This is a werebeast that used a Corrosion Silk Spider’s nuclei!
“Noble Lord Madam Freak, stop using your corrosive silk, we need these corpses to manufacture werebeast nuclei!”
Above the spider freak was yet another werebeast. Just like the others, he has a strange appearance
His head was composed of three faces identical to each other. On his arms, feathers grew that formed a pair of wings akin to that of an eagle
This is yet another Noble Lord that fused with a werebeast nuclei of the Bizarre Eagle. He was previously Keito’s superior!
“Tsk, I know” the spider freak replied and this time, she only uses her spider legs to pierce through one human after another
These Werebeasts are just a few of the large force of Twighlight Beast that was dispatched to support the downfall of Greenwood City
On their necks were the same curse marks as the ones that Snow and Space Fox has that prevent them from being harmed by the poisonous green mist
“Aahh!! No, p-please no!!” A woman holding an infant in her arms cried out but her cries were ineffective
The Bizarre Eagle Werebeast dived down and uses his claw to kill her and the infant. As soon as they died, their souls materialized and they became visible to the naked eye
However, as they are already dead, their souls just stood there, unmoving and unfeeling
“Sigh… these guys, they are too powerful! Aside from the disgusting appearance they had, there is no other disadvantage of using the werebeast nuclei” a female mage wearing a deer mask commented with a sigh
She waved her hand and casts a spell that swallowed the souls of the mother and infant
Whether it be the physical body or the soul body of the dead, they are necessary materials of the Werebeast Nuclei
The physical flesh can be used to manufacture nuclei that would increase the user’s physical might while the souls are for the nuclei that would boost a beast tamer’s ability
The Corpse-lover Giant Frog is responsible for storing the bodies of the dead while the mages of the Twighlight Beast was responsible for collecting the souls
——
Greenwood City, Military Department
“Damn it! They were one step ahead of us!” General Bone Sage cursed. The terrifying soul pressure that he releases could make normal humans and lower-ranking mages piss their pants in fear
The Military is in the process of gathering their forces along with the assistance from the Preston Family but the Twighlight Beast struck before they can launch a raid
“General, it would be best to mobilize the army immediately” on his side was Dominant Sky
The military department and their allies were in the middle of finalizing their strategy for the raid but all the planning are now useless since the enemy strikes first
ɴoᴠᴇʟ “Where are you going?” General Bone Sage asks
“General, I am staying in Greenwood City because of only one person; the holder of the Token of Gratitude. He entered the city earlier this day and with the current situation, I have to go and make sure that he is safe”
After saying that, Dominant Sky hurriedly went to check on Rezen
“Activate the large-scale purifying magic!” Bone Sage ordered
Currently, there was still magic circles both in the sky and on the ground of Greenwood City. One is the magic circle that releases streaks of lightning and the other is the [Spirit Field]
However, soon, more magic circles formed and overlap with the magic circles on the ground which was the spell that could purify the poisons
“General, from our findings, the poison that they use is strange. The purifying magic can’t last a long time and even with them, prolonged exposure to the poison would constantly weaken us” a mage reported and that was the last stroke that broke Bone Sage’s patience
“Announce the start of Martial Law! The military would take over and all mage clans and organizations are to obey us!”
“Send the soldiers, kill these filthy bastards! We can only fight them head-on and eradicate them as fast as possible!”
After giving some orders, Bone Sage strode out of the military department and a dirty white mystic gem flew out of his elixir field
“[Bone God’s Armor!]”
The General casts a spell of the God’s Armor series with the element of bones
The magic circle appeared on the very ground he was standing on and dirty white light shone on his body that materializes into a thick bone armor
“Twighlight Beast!” The General roared angrily as his body rose in the air. His fury can be sensed even from afar
His eyes seemingly pierced the space itself as he stared at the two mages wearing fox masks in the sky
“[Eradicating Bone Lance!]”
Bone Sage waved his hand at the side and a dirty white magic circle formed. With yet another aggressive wave of his hand, the magic circle moved and it releases a long lance made from bones
The bone lance causes the air itself to screech due to its impossible fast speed. It flew faster than the speed of sound, targeting Space Fox that was killing hundreds of humans every second
