Chapter 60: Plan E
Marked Teleportation, in Lilith's eyes, this is one of the strongest skill a daemon can have or anyone else, really.
There's only one way to use it and that is by leaving a mark to any surface and then teleport to that place. Though the markings disappear after some time, it was still useful for many reasons.
The user of the skill can have anyone teleport to the marking or use it for herself.
Self-teleportation is easy to do, but sending someone or something is a different matter especially if the one you would be sending is a large item.
In the eyes of many, it should only be used by sending items to one place to the next. Or at most send an army to a battlefield and create a surprise attack.
However, Lilith saw the potential of the skill, and what she came up with is Plan D, or otherwise known as Destroy the ships with a Boulder.
Using a branch that had been marked by Sylva as the mark and then using the minimap as the tracker of where the carrier is, this particular explosive less calamity was birthed.
And with a boulder that is more than 500 tons, dropping from more than 30,000 feet up above, it was in the realm of an asteroid. It was a massive threat that can decimate an entire city.
This asteroid was moving fast, and in thirty seconds, it shall reach the ground decimating the force of the forces of the humans.
'Now, how are you going to deal with such a massive threat above you?'
Lilith watched with great interest in how the humans would react in front of such a danger. The humans reacted just like how humans reacted to something they could not understand, bombard it with huge firepower!
"Use your skills, don't run away, it is useless, if we want to survive, then our only choice is to grind that thing to dust!"
"Dammit, what is it with this land? First, it was that appearance of silver light and this time it's raining Boulders? When can we get some rest?"
"Shut up and just bombard it! Warriors, go and mount the other cannons use every mana you can!"
It was a festival of explosions, a plethora of light emerged from the two ships and flew out to the boulder! Their intention was clear, destroy the damn thing and see the light of the next day!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
They all roared as their determination to destroy the damn thing ignited their will to live. Just like any other human who about sees the end of their lives.
They are about to kick the bucket, and just like how humans found themselves at the top of the food chain, they gritted their teeth and gave it their all!
"AAAHHHHHH!" Their roars echoed around the area and as the reverberation of their desperation for life melded with the cannon's roar to destroy the boulder, they saw, cracks were beginning to appear on the surface of the boulders.
"JUST A LITTLE MORE IT IS ABOUT TO BREAK!"
Upon seeing the damage that they are causing, the humans were celebrating. Their smiles blossomed and they poured more mana into their fight against the boulder.
'Just a little more, come on, break, break, break!'
And then, finally, it happened, the boulder cracked and as their smiles blossomed, it soon disappeared as the fractures of the boulder was still as big as ten meters each.
"We messed up. We only divided it."
When they saw this, their despair heightened, many fell to their knees as they realized their situation. Their mana flow stops and as they were too tired to even move and escape, they just watched the oncoming boulders!
However, one man by the name of Jericho stood up. He was a B+ Mage Hunter! He looked at the boulders and gritted his teeth, once again, he prepared a spell!
BooM!
He sent out a Fireball to one of the fractures and it showed signs of cracking. Many saw this and then heard Jericho speak!
"Stand up! Ready the cannons! We can do this! Push yourselves and burst through your limit, we can't fall here! We must live, there are people awaiting our return! Stand up and don't give!"
The more they despaired and the more they fall to the abyss, but once light appeared, it will lead others to go it. Jericho's words became a beacon of hope. The exhausted humans began standing up one by one.
They stood their ground and looked at the boulder. All of them laughed as they realized how much of coward they were being.
"Hehe, Jericho's right. We can't give up, stand up and fight destiny!"
"YEAH!"
Their cries echoed in the ears of many, and as it did, many of the humans began standing up. They looked at the fractures and laughed mockingly at themselves.
They stood their ground and began climbing to get the light of hope and live to see the next day!
Jericho laughed at the sight of the other Hunters coming together. He was ready to face the oncoming danger with them.
He smiled as he saw it, the thread of hope being lowered.
However, the more they focused on hope, the more they lost sight of despair that is creeping behind them and as they focused on the possibility of breaking the fractures, the more they fall to a tunnel vision thus they didn't see the tiny loli of despair!
Bang!
A red sphere landed in front of Jericho and with a broad smile plastered on his face the red sphere did its job!
BOOM!
As the High-Tier Magic Bombs exploded encompassing a three-hundred-meter radius.
As the smoke settled and the warships appeared, the only thing Lilith saw was wreckage. The humans should be dead by now, but then, the falling fractures followed burying the remains.
Lilith smiled at the sight of this.
'Welp, for a hasty Plan E, the result is not that bad!'
The warships had been decimated, killing every human that was on board or in a three-hundred-meter radius!
The war is finally over and from above, Lilith announced.
"Sweep the entire Island, find and kill every human that remains!"
Just a few days ago, the humans were the ones hunting the escaping demons. But right now, Lilith had ordered for their death!
