Chapter 546 [456] Death of The night.
It was...tranquil for a moment, Although the vortex above made for a dreadful sight...it was calm, the floating rocks, the magma around Alan and even the surrounding lightning produced no sound and peacefully stayed at their positions.
Alan took a deep breath, the glow in his eyes fading and his knees crumbling, but there was a strong defiance in his body. As if it didn\'t want to exit this state at all, no matter what.
Thankfully, it was given an excuse to stay. Alan could support this \'state\' of his for much longer, but there was a strange drain on his reserves of mana and the newfound aura. Although the energy burned bright within him, like a fire, it seemed to be...odd.
It would flicker in and out of existence, and sometimes flare up, as if to fight an invading force.
However, as his mind was about to awaken and exit this state, the body forced it to sleep once again and relished in the power that was flowing through within it...and it was just at the moment.
"Get out of here!"
David\'s voice echoed throughout the mountains, \'Alan\' turned his head to gaze at the direction it came from and he disappeared. He reappeared in front of David, who was at the center of the city, in front of a magic circle.
However, unlike the previous times, where he would usually scream in fright as Alan approached, he smiled. It was an odd smile, filled with a coldness like snow and a bitter confidence.
Shockingly, \'Alan\' was shoved out of the city! His body collided with an invisible force and surprisingly, even this state of his wasn\'t able to fight back as he was pushed towards the sky. He collided with a few buildings as his body was catapulted out of the city.
He took a moment to regain himself as he floated in the skies, the lava rejoined him to offer a protective cover and the rocks as well. Lightning danced around him once more as he stared down at the single alive individual in the city. David Umber, a man that seemed human but was far from it.
Blood leaked out from all orifices of his face as he put his hands, soaked with his own blood and the blood of giants, on the magic circle.
"Let\'s see you fucking survive this!"
His crazed laughter echoed out as his arms were torn to shreds. The city began to glow as a red mark appeared on Alan\'s chest.
It was like a hammer, engraved within it was a bolt of lightning and around the hammer were clouds, concealing it from the world. It carved itself into his skin, and although it was annoying, Alan dismissed it and continued to stare coldly at the city.
It started to glow a sinister, red hue as an immense wave of mana pulsed out... This was merely the start.
Tears leaked down David\'s cheek as he cried from the pain of activating the city\'s true trump card. An ancient spell formation that would use an immense amount of mana to unleash a beam of pure destruction...one that was capable of killing an adult dragon!
The giants were the enemies of dragons, one of the prominent ones at least...and this was a trump card almost all of their cities had! Unfortunately, the true power of this trump card was unable to be used.
It could once severely injure several dragons...but now, it had little mana. Of course, even the \'little\' mana it held was enough to power the beam enough to kill a dragon!
The city began to glow, emit dangerous waves as Alan, despite being able to disturb the formation, looked on coldly.
Snorting, he raised his hand and a massive rift opened up in the sky. As the city powered up to unleash it\'s attack, he prepared his own.
David had already expected this, considering the temperament of dragons, he knew that although the formation was easy to disrupt, the monster in the sky wouldn\'t do it. Instead, the monster would try to counter it with an attack of his own.
It was a gamble, which is it failed would be his death, but it worked!
\'Idiot! The formation is especially effective against all types of dragon magic! Your dead!\'
David was fully convinced this attack would end the monster that had slaughtered the Night lady and his army...and to be fair. He had every right to believe so...because the trump card truly was powerful.
A ball of red energy materialized above the city, and from the rift in the sky a meteor appeared! The size of a hill or a small mountain, and encased in fire, began to descend.
However, that was not the end of it! A large spell formation, in the form of a snowflake, appeared right beneath the meteor and covered it in a layer of icy wind and frigid coldness! It extinguished the fire and gave rise to... Glacial Meteor! The current strongest skill in Alan\'s arsenal, except for Possession.
It ripped through the air, and produced a sound that would shatter the drums in one\'s ears. And at the same time, a beam of red light, half as wide as the meteor, erupted forth from the city and shot upwards.
The two constructs, each a trump card of their own, collided, and the world below was dyed red, and the world above was dyed blue.
The spectacle was visible throughout the entire world of Giganta! Where all living beings on the surface looked up to see the spectacle. The ones especially close to it were blinded by the red light, and the barrier Alan had set up did nothing to conceal the magnificent and deadly splendor.
The beam of red light melted through the meteor, but the frigid winds and the meteor itself weakened it as it made its way through. Part of the beam went wild in all directions, but it could not successfully penetrate the meteor all the way.
It faded away...but that did not mean the meteor was all right! It cracked to pieces and the pieces, either turned to dust due to the effect of the beam or dropped all around the mountain, but not inside the city.
Sweating profusely, David laughed, but a bitter smile covered his face. He realized he had done enough. An attack like that which Alan released was sure to have crippled him of his mana reserves, even if he was a dragon!
With a proud look on his face, he knelt down and began to gasp for breath. He looked up, wanting to see the falling figure of the dragon monster, as...his face paled and lost color.A bitter laugh escaped his lips as he resigned himself to his fate, for he...
"... Haha..."
He was graced with the sight of three more meteors, descending towards him.
