Undying Warlord

Chapter 424 Squashed

Dilan had no idea how high the temperature around him was but everything that had yet to be destroyed began to melt.

This indicated that it was no less than a blazing inferno and it didn't make things easier when the temperature kept increasing the closer the humongous Meteorite came to the ground.

Dilan let out a groan after he released a Mana Slash Using 50 Units of Berserk Lightning Mana to destroy a bunch of house-sized meteorites. He was trying to do the same with the district-sized Meteorite but it was only obvious that the result was far from pleasing.

The humongous meteorite did not only continue to advance but only a tiny fragment of it had been cut off due to the impact of the Mana Slash that could easily kill all kinds of Tier-3 existences with the power he had just used.

'This fucking bullshit!' Dilan cursed, trying to use [Short-distance traveling] just to notice that the ability of his boots was still not working. Nothing was going as per his plan and he couldn't move fast enough to escape the humongous meteorite that descended to the ground at a much slower pace than Dilan thought.

Little did he know that his mind worked so fast in the desperate situation he encountered that it merely looked like the meteorite was descending slowly.

In reality, the humongous meteorite shot to the ground just as fast as the other meteorites.

When Dilan realized that his Mana Slash was not working, he tried to store away Xealtron in his storage ring. He wanted to retrieve and activate a bunch of Magic Scrolls to see if he could escape the situation, just to realize that his storage ring wasn't working either.

He couldn't even store Xealtron to make sure that the Cursed Dagger wouldn't melt when the humongous meteorite would impact on him.

'The meteorite won't directly impact me, but just the outer parts…can I survive that?' Dilan asked himself, knowing deep down that he wouldn't be able to survive the impact of such a gigantic meteorite just because his natural healing capabilities were stronger than others.

He would have to survive the attack first to make sure that his healing was of any use, to begin with!

Thus, he looked to the ground and bit so hard on his lips that they began to bleed a little before he finally thought of something.

The three Lightning Spirits disappeared and three two Basic Earth Spirits, and one Basic Water Spirit were summoned a moment later. They merged with Xealtron and mantled the weapon, just for Dilan to use a tremendous amount of mana to break open the ground below him.

'Just a hole that is large enough and as deep as possible for me to squeeze through!!' Dilan screamed internally and the Spirits reacted accordingly. His mana was rapidly drained and the ground below his burst open while a path straight to the ground was dug.

And it was no sooner than the ginormous meteorite impacted in the Shiron's center where it destroyed everything as it turned the ground more than a thousand meters deep into smithereens.

A huge shockwave overflowing with searing heat burning countless beings was released when the meteorite impacted on the ground and everything in the surrounding was destroyed.

There was only one exception, a small place that was completely unscathed, and surrounded by a blue dome that had erupted with the use of a seemingly ordinary, yet mythical orb that trembled in the hands of the young woman who looked outside the dome with a ghastly expression.

'Did I just….do that??' She thought in terror while her eyes moved instinctively over to their leader, who smiled upon seeing the death and destruction as he lifted a black medallion shaped in the form of a tiny black heart high into the air.

"Devour them all, take everything you need!!" He screamed at the top of his lungs before darkness began to ooze out of the tiny heart. Countless dark spots could be seen all over Shiron and the surrounding area. Everywhere someone had been burned, squashed or killed through different means.

Dark dots were scattered throughout the air and they were all pulled toward the tiny black heart that began to beat faintly the moment the first black dots were absorbed and devoured by it.

'Just what have I done?!?' The woman thought in horror while staring at their leader, unable to tell what was going on right now.

Meanwhile, as terror swept through the young woman, who had just followed the orders of her leader, Dilan was struggling to survive.

He had been certain that it would be enough to dig a hole several hundred meters deep to escape the humongous meteorite, but that was not even close to be enough.

The moment more than half of his Mana had been drained, Dilan was forced to halt and look up, just to see that everything above him had already been disintegrated.

The humongous meteorite might have slowed down due to the obstruction it faced and the terrifying force it transferred. Everything that continued to hinder its way downward had lessened drastically but that didn't mean Dilan would be able to survive any of it.

His best bet was to crawl under the ground but it was impossible to continue to dig down because not even the combined effort of his three Elemental Spirits was enough to make any difference. Their power had been used up entirely and it was now upon Dilan to face reality.

He looked straight at the blazing meteorite and took a deep breath as the putrid smell of charred flesh and burned ruins entered his nostrils, burning his lungs and throat.

"Ah….how I missed living in hell…It almost feels like I'm back in the past. Well, maybe it is a little bit hotter here!" Dilan tried to joke but his expression was stiff and he couldn't even think about laughing.

He activated [Switch], and reallocated 150 Units of his Agility to his Health before activating the strongest form of [Undying] once again.

Simultaneously, he used the 12 Units of unallocated stats to further increase his Health in the hope that this change would make a difference.

Altogether with his already high Stats, the reallocated 150 Units he had deprived of his Agility, the title [Beyond the Stars], and the set-effect of the Hyel Destructo Armor Set and his equipment's stat augmentation, Dilan's Health crossed 760 Units!

Yet, even with such a terrific high Health stat, Dilan could hardly endure the force that impacted him when the blazing meteorite continued to descend.

Dilan was flattened, his skin burned, and not even his terrifyingly high Health could save him from the terrifying force of a district-sized meteorite that could even kill the strongest existences at Tier-4!

With [Undying] fully unleashed, he naturally accelerated healing capabilities due to the Blood Vyrm bloodline and his special trait [Iron Skin], even existences with a Health stat of more than 1200 Units would pale in comparison to Dilan.

However, even then Dilan had no hopes of enduring the terrifying power the meteorite put on him. The blazing flames burned his skin and the flesh while he was pushed deeper underground, no matter what obstacle was put in his way.

Dilan couldn't believe what was happening, yet, he was still far from accepting that he might die here.

'How can I survive?'
