Chapter 367 - Planetoid RL 34


Yellow Desert, RL-34 Planetoid, 21.6 million miles from Uranus cluster cities:

There was a dynamic border running across the planetoid contested by humans and abyssals.

Between the two borders was a large wasteland.

It wasn't always like this.

The mountains that used to stand tall on this land were long flattened by the punches of body awakeners. The rivers that used to flow with vitality were evaporated by the fierce fire awakeners.

The beautiful greenery was destroyed the ruthless lightning awakeners. The volcanos, active and passive were destroyed the mighty water awakeners.

As the red blood and green blood spilled across the land, the ground turned yellow.

The wasteland came to be known as the yellow desert—the resulting color of red and green blood.

Like everyday, the human soldiers were facing a short battle in one area of the yellow desert.

At normal times ,this would be thought of as a daily operation. Skirmishes, assassinations, short battles, salami slicing and blitzkrieg and so on were an everyday affair.

But today was special.

Not in a good way.

"Charge D-5 ! Charge! Let's kill the mother plant!"

"Squad A-23, assist B-112! Take down the children plants!"

"Space Awakeners! Space Awakeners! Get your asses moving! Assassinate! Assassinate!"

Tens of thousands of human soldiers were spread across the battlefield.

The members of each squad were instructed by their captains and captains of each squad were instructed by the lieutenants.

Squads formed Platoons, Platoons formed Companies, Companies Battalions, Regiments, Brigades and finally a Legion of 10,000 strong men.

At the moment, every officer in the hierarchy was trying their best issuing instructions to take down the fierce enemy that suddenly appeared.

In the battle field, there weren't just 10,000 humans and an equal number of abyssals, there were also dozens of large, monstrous plants on the Abyss side.

Sequoia, they were called. A group of plant species reared by the Abyssals.

They all cultivated in the Morpher plant path and almost all of them transformed into a plant called Ficedula after transformation.

Ficedula was a fearsome enemy. It created small copies of itself called Ficeds. Each of these small copies had only a portion of Ficedula's strength. But their number more than made up for it.

And right now, the humans were facing a few dozen level 8 Ficedulas.

The result?

Kaa!

Dust rose into the air and the ground was blasted into pieces. As fire, water, lightning and rocks flew over the fighters, purple colored plant-like entities lunged at humans.

Roar!

Roar!

These purple body plants, Ficeds, had a large mouth, long branches filled with red thorns.

Their roots morphed into a sledge and they dashed into the human army with a reverberating roar.

Then…they slaughtered.

Each Ficed had a strength of a level 6.

And level 6…was important for every battlefield!

RL-34 planetoid was a planetoid with a level 9 commander and quite a few high awakeners.

Even then, level 6 were the backbone for most operations.

But those backbones were slapped into pieces of blood and flesh as the Ficeds extended their branches and whipped them to abrupt death.

Boom!

Boom!

"Argggh!"

A squad of six was instantly obliterated by the Ficeds. Their vine-like branches broke the strong body of body awakeners, resisted the fire balls, didn't cower under the mental attacks.

All of them were level 6s!

The same scenario played across the battlefield as hundreds of level 6s were quickly killed.

As the situation went from worse to nightmarish, a group of level 8 awakeners cut their way through the battlefield and reached the Ficedula, the mother plant.

"Sha and Jah." The captain said and the two Body Awakeners shot out of the team, blocking off the level 8s Abyssals that were about to rescue the mother plant.

"Mei and Yumi." The captain ordered and the two elementalists—Fire and Lightning flew into the air and set up huge shields.

The fire hammers, lightning spears and ice arrows directed at them were swiftly blocked.

"Noah, assistant me. We have only shot." Hanyu turned towards the gravity awakener and said.

"Yes, cap!" Noah nodded and his gravity sense locked onto the plant. He changed their relative gravities and in the next instant, his body was pulled towards the monster plant.

"I hope we can get through." Hanyu muttered and her mental power penetrated the gigantic purple plant in the distance.

Roar!

"Shreek!" The mother plant shrieked in pain as it felt its consciousness was stabbed with prickly needles.

Its connection with its children, Ficeds was strained and in that moment, its twenty odd children stiffened momentarily on the battlefield.

That meant death!

Sixteen of them were obliterated by the human soldiers who retailed swiftly.

"Shreeik!" The mother plant's body trembled with rage. Its senses caught onto Hanyu in the distance.

The woman was a dual awakener! Or as a mind awakener, she wouldn't have entered this deep.

Hanyu charged lightning mana into a dazzling spear and shot it at the mother plant.

Right then, the mother plant retaliated.

Shuaaa!

It whipped its long branch and in an instant, it crossed a few miles reaching the mind awakener.

"Not so fast." A voice sounded from its right and the gravity skyrocketed all of a sudden.

Crrack!

The ground sunk in an instant and cobweb-like cracks, with the mother plant as the center, spread for miles.

"Skree!" The branch that was a few meters away from Hanyu before it bent down and penetrated the ground, missing the dual awakener.

Hanyu looked up and saw the mother plant was only slightly bent under the pressure.

The monster didn't give up and whipped its branches against captain Noah.

"Hmph!"

Hanyu directed the lightning spear in the air and shot it at the mouth of the giant thing.

Unlike other plants, its mouth was its major weakness.

"Screech!" The mother plant forcibly moved through the heavy gravity and flipped in the air, and was about to dodge the lightning spear.

In midair, it lashed its branches at Noah with all its strength.

Noah changed the gravity of his body and his figure blurred. In a split second, he was already hundreds of meters away from the mother plant.

But the branches were right behind him.

Noah had an incomparably solemn face as he channeled all his gravity power and forcibly adjusted the gravity of the mother plant.

"Screech!" The mother plant suddenly felt a huge pull towards a certain region.

As the lightning spear neared it, its body was forcibly shifted bank into its trajectory and was about to hit its central body.

"Cap!"

Zap!

The lightning bolt flickered and changed its direction at the last moment, reaching the mother plant's mouth in the blink of an eye.

Boom!

The lightning bolt smashed the mother plant's mouth into pieces and traveled through its huge body, electrocuting it and destroying every bit of its life.

Ka!

The mother plant died and its remaining four children withered instantly.

"Haa~" As hanyu sighed in relief, two crackling sounds caused her to turn around.

Kacha!

Kacha!

The lightning and fire barriers blocking off the Abyssals' attacks were broken. The elementalists Mei and Yumi had a pale face as they faced three level 8 Abyssals.

Boom!

Boom!

The ground shook as two bodies crashed and created a huge crater.

Shah and Jah lay on the ground as the coughed out blood.

They were facing four level 8 Abyssals.

"Quick!" Hanyu yelled into her comm.

Shuaa!

An ice spear shot at Shah and a fire dragon was about to devour Jah when the space suddenly fluctuated.

A man appeared in front of them and blocked the space.

Kaa!

The space creaked and his lock was about to break.

"Stop him!" The Abyssals targeted him.

The man didn't flinch under the pressure and grabbed Shah and Jah.

Booom!

When the combined attacks reached his position, and exploded the land into pieces, he was long gone.

"Argggh!"

Mei and Yumi were also taken away the space awakeners. Shortly, Noah was also gone.

The six Abyssals attacked Hanyu togehter and this time, even if space awakeners appeared, she would still die!

'Is this the end? Did I live my life properly?' Hanyu attacked their minds and set up a lightning shield.

The intensity of their attacks dropped, but it was still way more powerful than her.

What's more, if a space awakener appears to save her, even they would die.

'At least I am going to die well.' Hanyu sighed. The ficeds were killing too many level 6s. If this continued, the army would sooner or later face a severe shortage of level 6s and it won't be long before the Abyssals gain a strong edge over the planetoid.

closed her eyes and waited for the inevitable to happen.

The pain didn't come.

"Huh?" Her eyes shot open and she saw the attacks paused in midair and were struggling to move forward.

Not just here, but everywhere in the battlefield, the high awakeners that were in danger were inexplicably saved.

They all had the same thought.

"…Is she here?" Hanyu's heart skipped a beat and she glanced above.

Her mind sense instantly reached the atmosphere of the planet and reached the outer space.

There, she saw a beautiful woman facing a female Abyssal.

"…Sovereign Irene!" Hanyu gasped.

A/N: Recently, there was a review stating Volume 4 has many fillers.

There are no filler chapters in Volume 4 so far (maybe 1 or at most 2).

Everything you learn right now might not seem relevant or useful, and some might not make even sense.

This happened again and again, starting with Varian's mother's wish, Sia avoiding Varian despite caring for him and recently, Eric's actions in the banquet which at that time seemed like author lost his brain. (there were some wild comments on that chapter. lol.)

But since you read so far, I hope you can trust me a bit more. What you read so far WILL matter and it'll become apparent the deeper we go into this arc.

PS: This is the last of the 5 promised chapters. Support the story if you can. Today's the last day.. If we reach top 25 (trending, monthly, all-time), we'll have a 10 chapter mass-release.

If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know < report chapter > so we can fix it as soon as possible.
