Chapter 1105: The Awakening (9)
When Klaus told his mom to get ready, he had already spotted the assassin who was sent to kill Jane; however, he pretended he hadn’t seen him.
So he allowed him to gain the confidence to approach the pagoda.
Of course, if only he knew Jane was the most protected warrior on the battlefield, he would have had second thoughts. However, he moved forward, and Klaus allowed him.
However, just when he was finally free of the battlefield and ready to get into a strike range, he was sent away to space, where his body was vaporized.
Klaus’ mom was already alerted by her son, who had countermeasures in place to automatically teleport any body he had given his permission to approach Jane.
Even the beautiful Jane had no idea she was targeted. Unlike Klaus, she doesn’t have a hivemind that can allow her to do two things at the same time.
So her entire focus was on handling the dangerous targets on the battlefield, and with thousands of Domain Stage warriors appearing on the battlefield, she was rather focused.
However, she had nothing to worry about.
Klaus made sure his memories came back to him after every reincarnation cycle for moments like this. The formations protecting his sister are not something an unawakened world should have.
Maybe it was because of this that the heavens had schemed against him by sending thousands of Domain Stage warriors.
—
On one side of the battlefield, a young samurai clad in traditional Japanese samurai armor moves like the wind, his thin katana zipping through the air like a plague.
His name is Arashi, a Chaos Stage warrior in the Earth Alliance Legion.
With every quick strike, a head falls on the ground, showing he was in a way having a moment on the battlefield.
Suddenly, an Ascension Stage assassin appeared behind him, her dagger aimed at Arashi’s neck. However, his katana stabbed behind him, piercing through the heart of the assassin.
The next second, his sword moved again and cleaved through an arrow fired from a crossbow.
Arashi moved, gliding across the ground, his movement reminiscent of that of a ninja. As he approached his next target, another arrow was fired, and yet again, he defended against it.
However, before he could move back to evade another arrow coming from a different direction, a spear came from out of nowhere and impaled him through his chest.
He was sent across the battlefield, landing on the ground.
The spear, which was still embedded in his chest, shook and flew, entering the hand of a Domain Stage Kathorian. The next second, this Domain Stage warrior found himself thrown into a radiation-rich planet. His scream filled the savage planet.
Meanwhile, back on the battlefield, Arashi’s body was teleported to the Sylvan healers, who immediately tried to heal him.
However, it was already too late.
The poison on the spear was just too potent, and so, Earth had just recorded its first death. It was rather unfortunate, but they were prepared for this.
They knew death was inevitable, so they prepared for it.
Of course, it is painful, it will be painful, but everyone knew what they signed up for.
Suddenly, green flames surrounded Arashi’s body, and he rose to his feet, his face devoid of life.
Asmodeus had reanimated his body, making him an undead.
The next second, Arashi was back on the battlefield.
Before the battle, every last warrior told Asmodeus that as long as the battle was not yet over, even if they had to die ten times, he must always bring them back to life so they could fight until the end.
They were aware of the odds they were up against, so they prepared in advance for it. Thankfully, Asmodeus gave them his word that after the battle, all allies would be freed to be buried.
So Arashi won’t be the only ally to turn undead.
Many will follow and, using their strength and resilience, they will protect their world from harm.
Klaus sighed when he saw this… “At the end of the day, it is the hero gig… There is bound to be death here and there. All we can hope for is that, in the end, our sacrifice will yield something.”
20 minutes had passed since the start of the battle, yet the enemy kept coming. Within these 20 minutes, thousands of Earth warriors came close to dying.
If it hadn’t been for the Array Klaus has deployed and Jane working her magic, the death toll would have been staggering.
This death would have been caused by the cannon strapped on the back of every last Neburian warrior on the battlefield.
Defending against such weapons was proving to be very hard. Klaus didn’t know any other way to handle them aside from waiting for his wife to find a way to disable them.
Princess Eshira, who had been working on finding a way to disable the cannon guns for the past 15 minutes, suddenly smiled when it all clicked.
She waved her hand, and a schematic appeared. Her Inventor Class is that useful.
She teleported and appeared beside Klaus.
“Can you build this?” she asked, showing him the schematic.
“The guns they are using are rather complex and powerful guns. In the vast universe out there, they can be regarded as E-class guns.
However, they can become D-class guns depending on the grade of the core put into them. But that is the least of our worries.
Upon examining the gun, it appears to be a knockoff of the original gun. I believe that would be a C-class gun, something not even our strongest metal elemental warriors can defend against.”
“So we still have a threat bigger than these guns?” Klaus asked, his expression dark. “What a headache.”
“Yes. However, the Core Gun Dampener is a device that can dampen the guns’ power long enough for us to destroy them. Of course, the smaller ones can be destroyed using the dampener,” Princess Eshira said, then asked,
“Can you build it?”
“Of course,” Klaus took the schematic and opened the Paragon Forge. He stepped in, and Princess Eshira followed.
Klaus immediately activated the forge and placed the schematic in it. After a few seconds of analysis, the estimated time until completion was provided.
“It will be done in 15 minutes. We can go out, and when it is done, I will retrieve it.”
They returned to the battlefield, where the chaos only seemed to be intensifying.
“Klaus, when are we joining the battle?” Danny asked, already craving battle. Mason had already joined the Earth Alliance warriors because Jane had placed him there for a reason.
However, since Danny is the face of the Cavalry of Defiance, he could only wait until his turn came.
“Relax, buddy, your time will come,” Klaus said, causing Danny to clench his fist. Daniel, Miguel, and the others were all craving battle.
Suddenly, 15 warning messages sounded in Klaus’s head, causing him to turn toward the crack.
There he saw 15 masked individuals, each a Peak Domain Stage warrior, appear—the air around them very suffocating.
“Uncles, time to get to work.”
The five uncles looked at the new arrivals and smiled.
They stood up and were about to move when Uncle Ziggy raised his hand and stopped them. He turned toward a certain white-haired Nether Stage handsome.
“Mr. Pickles… time to get to work.”
