Chapter 311: Primordial Terror: Unbreakable Vanguard
The five blasts smashed into her, a concentrated barrage of dark energy that defied all known physics of Galaxy Fall. The shockwave spreading all over the place, utterly destroying the whole cavern, reducing ancient rock to fine dust. Mirabella vomited a mouthful of blood, her internal organs ruptured despite her constitution. She was staring as the rocks fell down on the Cocoon, bracing for the slaughter of the trapped humans, but to her surprise, thick, pulsating black webs covered everything, protecting them from the rocks. The entity wasn’t just a mindless beast; it was fiercely protective of its harvested livestock.
".....?!"
SCREECH!!!!!!!!!!
A loud, mind-rending shriek sounded all over the place, vibrating not just in the air, but in the very law of the world. The next moment, two screams sounded above her in the vertical escape shaft.
’Master!! Carl and Grace fainted, they can’t handle the mental pressure!!’ Adira’s panic voice sounded in her mind through their spiritual link. The sheer aura radiating from the abyss below was too toxic for their lower-level minds to process.
’Just get them to the surface.’ Mirabella yelled mentally, gritting her teeth against the retreat, and shot into the hole.
"Hehehe... You actually survived five of my energy blasts, impressive."
Mirabella heard the voice echoing directly against her consciousness. She could felt something cold and ancient trying to invade her soul, and head defenses, seeking to overwrite her very identity. But due to her immunity and past-life soul tempering, she was unharmed by the mental intrusion.
’What sort of creature is that?! One of its attacks can give five hundred million damage, all my defense stats is wiped out, and my health is 2 billion lower. If this continues, I might die without even knowing what is attacking me.’ She thought, wiping the blood off her lips with a trembling hand. She was staring at Adira and Cupcake who were moving rapidly ahead of her in the dark shaft. Both Carl and Grace were secured on Cupcake’s massive back, both completely unconscious.
Her mind raced through her remaining arsenal. ’Adira could use Paradigm shift and reverse the time, but that is useless here! First, I don’t know the enemy; second, that attack came from different directions; third, it used it continuously, meaning it doesn’t have a cool down. And Adira can’t use that skill continuously!! I will have to know my enemy before thinking of a strategy.’ She looked up, finally see the faint grey light from the hole leading to the ruined estate.
WHOOSH!!!
Mirabella lowered her gaze to the ground, her eyes widening as she saw a blinding red light shooting towards them with twice their speed, completely ignoring the gravitational laws of the world.
