Chapter 532: CLXI. Heavy Mechanic Soldier
The watchtower on the walls of Black Rock City.
Army soldiers sounded the secondary battle alert, and the piercing sound of the siren echoed through the entire city like a swirling vortex, turning everyone’s nerves into a tangled mess.
The city wall, made of black carbonized crystal pinnacles, was smashed by a blood-red magic energy penetration cannon, creating a five-meter-deep hole. The explosion left a burning hole with molten edges around it. The load-bearing crystal spikes collapsed one by one with a torturing sound that was harsher than private steel pipes, and the buildings on the street in front were destroyed, with the ground’s structure creating tunnels and lifting on both sides.
"Evacuate the civilians immediately..."
The difference between the army and terrorists is that the army has a responsibility to protect the property and safety of the people in their occupied territories.
Before he finished speaking, a silver-gray berserk figure had already darted in.
His left arm was forged from fine steel of the Ancient Divine Continent, and his right hand’s claws were part of the magic-guided structure designed by the Pedan Magic Energy Industrial Committee.
Even though he was covered in silver armor, it was like paper. The activated berserk figure, striking rapidly like a scorching branding iron, burned through the armor in an instant, leaving severed limbs and flesh parts in perfect order without a drop of blood. The severed sections were entirely carbonized by high temperatures, rendering them black and blurry.
The organization of the Aran Army was strong. Despite this strange way of creating a breach in the city walls, catching them off guard, under the command of an officer, they organized a rapid response almost instantly. A team formed by gunners and heavy mechanized soldiers arrived at the scene almost immediately.
A semicircular encirclement blocked the maddened beast. Live ammunition, magic-guided rifles, and firepower saturated the area, covering the whole street in smoke and the flashing light of gunfire.
Rein, already tall at over two meters, became a glowing target in the dark due to the scorching heat emanating from him.
