Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

Chapter 619 The Drumbeats Of War! [2]

?

"…"

"…"

"…..!"

For a few seconds, the Beast Emperor and the 2nd Upper Beast Priest were frozen in shock by what they were currently seeing.

For a moment, they could hear the drumbeats of war.

Its bloody cacophony reverberated in their heads, flexing its deep bass.

At the very center of Planet Ancestor Mandrill was a transparent glass dome-shaped building called the Dome of Liberation.

That was where the node of one of the greatest heroes of the Beast Empire, the Shelter Priest was located and it was also the invasion spot.

When mobilizing armies from the Beast Empire to go raid territories of the Nak or Ackermann States, most times, the invasion spot was here.

Entering that dome-shaped transparent building, the Shelter Priest would do what he did best and send armies of beasts into the enemy territory.

Today though, it was the completely unexpected vice versa that happened.

It was not them invading anymore, it was the enemies invading.

"…!" The Beast Emperor was too shocked to speak.

'How?' This question kept on reverberating in his head.

'How did they do it?'

The questions in his head did not matter though because the long reigning peace of Planet Ancestor Mandrill was finally shattered today.

From the dome-shaped building, gigantic enemy warships charged out of spatial travel as they instantly spread into a gigantic circular formation even as more warships kept on coming out to join the formation and make it bigger.

While all these happened, time seemed to stop in this planet.

All the young beasts going to school and their parent beasts stopped as they looked in shock and fascination at the strange warships that were clearly not theirs.

"Dad, what kind of warship is that?" A young beast asked.

"What is going on?"

"…!" His dad was confused, he had no idea what was going on.

"Dad, is this another military drill by the Beast Coalition?" 

That was the last question that the young beast ever got to ask in this life as a thick red laser beam descended on this planet, completely evaporating that location that this young beast and his father stood a second ago.

It also affected all the other beasts in the surroundings.

BOOM!

The first gave way to the second.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Utter destruction started instantly.

There was no warning.

There was no exchange of words or taunting.

This was war…, real war.

"Arghhh…!" The beasts finally understood what was going on as they roared in terror and fear watching the warships levitate above them.

"Invaders!" 

"Enemies!"

"The evil sentient races are here to kill us!"

They roared at the top of their voices as chaos and panic instantly entered the streets of Planet Ancestor Mandrill.

The beasts that could not protect themselves scrambled for help as they ran to safety amid the chaos that instantly kickstarted.

While this happened, one of the warship's deck opened the next moment and from inside it, an Ackermann warrior floated out.

As soon as he floated out, magnetic energy spread out like a net.

Then, an absolutely gigantic mech suit appeared.

It was almost a kilometer tall, towering above the countless residents of this planet as it's owner entered inside it the next moment, booting this bad boy to life.

Seeing this gigantic and familiar mech suit, the Golden Langur's eyes widened even further in shock.

To warriors of Ackermann State, this was an iconic mech suit.

This was the legendary Life Spanner, Fleet Warlord Elyon's flagship mech suit and at this moment, the famed Elyon the Heavy Artillery Mechanic was ready to wreak havoc in enemy territory as he aimed his 2 cannon muzzles at targets.

As this mech suit descended, he pulled the trigger.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

Sheer destruction and obliteration force was unleashed.

Whatever it hit stood no chance before this absolute force of terror, the canons burned through everything they touched like it was not there.

Planet Ancestor Mandrill got caught up in the flames of war.

"…!" The Beast Emperor was still stunned.

"No…," He muttered.

Watching the young beasts dying, this beast felt like he was going crazy.

"No…"

"No!"

"NOOOO…!"

The Wisdom Priest snapped out of it first. "We need to protect the young beasts, they're the future of the Beast Empire!"

He dialed a number. "Activate the egg protection mechanism!"

The Wisdom Priest barely spoke into the channel when another deeper and clearer voice took over. "All defense units, mobilize!"

"Converge on the Emperor's palace!"

"Protect the Emperor at all costs!"

"Yes, Lord Snow Monkey!"

The voice kept on speaking in a far calmer tone than the Wisdom Priest. "All support units, flood the streets and save as much civilian beasts as possible".

"Activate the egg protection mechanism!"

"Yes, Lord Snow Monkey!"

The voice continued, and this time they could tell that the calmness was just a forced one, the rage bubbling within its owner could not be hidden this time.

"All assault units…, ON ME!!!" The 1st Upper Beast Priest roared.

Elyon only got the chance to go on a rampage for a few seconds when the strongest Beast Priest of the Beast Coalition charged out.

From the air, his staff was coated with aggressive golden energy.

When he stabbed with this staff, nature moved with it.

"Primate Power: Golden Staff!"

"Primate Power: Golden Armor!"

"Self-Created Magic Ability: Almighty Push!"

BOOMMMMM…!!!

Golden staff collided against cannons and an absolute eruption of power occurred as golden and red sparks filled the air like deadly fireworks in a night sky.

The war started in Planet Ancestor Mandrill.

…

Planet Beast Freedom…

The bulk of the invasion force appeared in this periphery planet.

Old man Rockfist and his army of Pugilists appeared here. 

The 2 Summoner Admirals and their army of beasts from the cultivation hidden planets appeared here with their large number of exotic beasts.

A 3rd, 4th, and 5th Admiral followed to this planet.

And at this moment, a clash of titans already started…

"How dare you show your face in my territory?!" The Destruction Priest was angry and whenever this bad boy was angry, destruction followed.

Mini explosions of black energy erupted from this Doom Cow and they engulfed any matter in the surroundings as he flexed his antimatter energy.

Both grass, sand, flesh, metal, anything called matter in the surroundings was engulfed, turning them into nothingness in a display of total destruction!

The Destruction Priest's energy was a truly unique and dangerous one and fueled by his rage, his momentum seemed unstoppable at this moment.

His rage was palpable. 

"I am Duhkha's rod of war!" The beast roared.

"You all shall bow before the power of destruction!"

Taking a step in the air the next moment while facing the 5 Calamity Grade Supers that dared to stand against him, this Beast Priest spread his powerful cow arms as the glowing golden emblem on his chest glowed brighter.

He seemed to call upon power from the universe as mini explosions detonated around him then his eyes finally focused on his targets.

"Self-Created Technique: Antimatter Aura- Fear Gaze!"

BZZZ!

Instantly, all 5 Calamity Grade warriors felt like an immensely powerful predator was gazing at their souls as for a brief moment, they became stunned in the air, unable to move or control their bodies.

"Self-Created Technique: Antimatter Energy- Antimatter Bomb!"

The Destruction Priest did it.

A gigantic black mass of erratic energy condensed from his body before rapidly accelerating towards the Calamity Grade warriors like a bomb.

It detonated in a wild affair of destruction.

BOOMMMM…!

Sheer destruction followed.

This was war!
