Chapter 710: Crazier
The Incubus System Chapter 700. Crazier
The two opposing forces collided with a deafening boom that shook the very foundations of the city. The wind howled and whipped around me, threatening to throw me off balance. But I didn't budge, my eyes locked on the missiles and my lances.
The holy missiles exploded on impact, creating a blinding light that illuminated the dark sky. But my black lances held strong, absorbing the brunt of the attack. They crackled and sizzled as they absorbed the holy energy, but they did not falter.
The impact created a shockwave that knocked over nearby buildings, and the ground quaked. All the windows shattered. Some buildings were cracked or even destroyed. Likewise with the streets.
The noise subsided, and I slowly lowered my hand, dispelling the lances. The black lances vanished into the shadows, leaving behind a trail of wispy smoke. I looked up at the sky, my red eyes still glowing with dark energy. The wind still raged, but it was slowly dying down. The sky was still covered in ash and debris.
I let out a long breath. 'I have to get this over with quickly,' I thought.
Turning to face the crack once again, my eyes caught a glimpse of something hovering in the sky. Three drones, with their metallic bodies glinting in the light, were hovering silently above me. They seemed to be imbued with some sort of magic, probably meant to monitor and track down any demon activity in the city.
I gritted my teeth. I had been expecting this. It was only a matter of time before the demon hunters caught on to my actions and decided to send their drones to investigate.
The first drone hid behind the water tower in the distance. Its metallic exterior gleamed under the dark sky.
