Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 903 Protection of the Goddess


Making her way to the mech hanger, she could see that roughly 20 pilots have arrived including Shiina, Oran and Akhess who's face was still a little pale.

Seeing Shiro's arrival, they all saluted as Shiro nodded her head.

"Shiina, Oran, Akhess, you three still look a little pale? Are you sure that you can undertake this operation? Do note that a single mistake could cost lives and you have to operate the mech with care. We'll be fighting in a city environment with unstable footing, if you don't feel well, it could impact your performance." Shiro warned as her tone was strict.

Seeing this, the three of them flinched for a moment since they could tell that Shiro wasn't going to be accepting a mediocre performance. With so many people in danger, their actions could hinder things if they're not careful.

Thinking about it carefully, Shiina looked at Shiro with determination.

"Your highness, I am confident in my abilities. I will not hinder the operation at all."

Seeing the look in her eyes, Shiro nodded her head.

"Very well. With the scale of the incident, I'll be assigning one group of 3 to each city. You'll work in three man cells in order to deal with the monsters that have appeared in the cities. You need to remember that saving people is your main priority so don't chase after any monsters. Just help the people evacuate and if there are no bunkers, bring them back to the city. There's not much space but I can expand a little if needed." Shiro instructed as they nodded their heads.

"Good. Since Shiina, Oran and Akhess are the only ones with proper training in specialised units, you'll be using them for this operation. The rest of you will go into standard units. I'll be giving each of you instructions and direction in your c.o.c.kpits so there is no need to worry about what you should be doing. The first group will consist of the following members!" Shiro called out as she began to list the names of people that she's assigning to New York.

When their name is called, they'll immediately get changed and enter a mech before standing at the edge of the hanger where they can see the destruction happening beneath them.

Checking their internal systems once more to make sure that everything was running, they saw blue motes gather up as a hologram of Shiro appeared.

"As I have mentioned, I'll be giving you instructions from the c.o.c.kpit. Are you ready? Remember, you are working in a city environment in a mech, try not to damage the surroundings and cause more harm if you can." The hologram Shiro said as the pilots were a little surprised but nodded their heads.

Once all of the pilots assigned to New York were ready, a green light lit up above the hanger as they jumped off the edge. Activating the thrusters, they dived towards the monsters that were rampaging around the city.

{Are you ok Shiro?} Nimue asked with worry while Shiro was still assigning people to different cities.

'Mn? Yeah I'm fine. I have done something like this before so it's a bit difficult but it's not that bad.' Shiro forced a smile. Not only was she suffering from a headache thanks to the abundance of mana and energy that flooded her senses, she was also splitting her focus across all the pilots and giving them information on their surroundings. Plus, she was controlling the drones to scout out each of the cities and prioritise the ones that are in most danger.

Having her mind focus on so many tasks put a huge burden on her but Shiro continued without rest.

{Maybe you should get Nan Tian to help out.} Nimue suggested since dealing with everything herself could do more harm than good.

'It's fine. I've already got him to do something important for me. This isn't too hard for me.' Shiro shook her head as she had a more important task.

Reviving all the ones that had died during this disaster. If their bodies are still intact, she can place their souls back.

After assigning them to the different cities, Shiro jumped off Asharia and floated above New York.

Summoning her lantern, Shiro only glanced at it before opening her mouth.

"I'm sure you know what I want to do don't you?" She asked.

"Indeed I do. I'll try not to harm them when they arrive." The Ancient Terror laughed as Shiro only shrugged.

There was a slight problem though, once she activates her skill, Requiem of the Demi Goddess, it'll be on cooldown for two weeks and it takes 90% of her mana along with a full charge of true spirit nature.

There wasn't a need to give them all the buffs. They just needed to be revived even half health would suffice.

Closing her eyes, Shiro started to modify her spell as gold and white tier 6 magic circles started to appear across the sky.

'Please let this work.' Shiro thought as she continuously restructured her spell in order to decrease the cooldown and requirements.

Today was supposed to be the day that we moved into a safe city. My mum had worked hard in order to save up but when we arrived, the world started to crumble.

Buildings collapsed, the ground broke apart and people died in front of me.

Sitting next to my mum, I only watched as people ran away while monster's chased.

"Please… run." My mum asked with a weak voice. Looking to my side, I could see that she had her entire lower body crushed by fallen debris. Even if I became a high level adventurer and moved the debris out of the way, she won't be able to walk.

"There's nowhere to run mum. Monsters are everywhere. I might as well stay here with you." I replied as my mum started to cry.

What was supposed to be a great day became the worst day of my life.

I could see powerful magic circles appearing all over the city but I guess it was probably more monsters activating spells.

Hearing a rumbling sound, I saw a monster charging towards us while ripping the road apart. People that were in its way were sent crashing to the side before being turned into a puddle of blood.

Shaking my head, I hugged my mum and closed my eyes.

*BANG!!!

"What the hell are you doing! Don't give up!" A voice shouted out after a large crash.

Strong winds tried to blow me away but I was able to stand my ground.

Looking up, I was surprised to see a giant robot wrestling the monster before stabbing a sword through its neck and cut it in half.

"Stop giving up! There is still hope! Her highness is working on a spell to help everyone so don't give up!" The same voice shouted out as it grabbed the debris and moved it to the side.

Looking at the mangled mess of my mum's legs, I gritted my teeth and put her on my back. I tried to be careful since she'll be feeling a lot of pain.

When I glanced back at the mech, I wondered about who created these robots and who was piloting them.

I suppose I wanted to be a pilot too. Even if I'm not a strong adventurer, I'll be able to help out people too.

Watching the mechs dash through the city while killing monsters and helping people, Shiro could see that the rate of casualties had decreased dramatically.

Clasping her hands together, her mana surged as Divine Energy erupted from her body.

"I'll give everyone a second chance after I revive them. Should they suffer a lethal injury after being revived, I'll absorb the impact before redistributing it using shared burden. With so many people in the city, it'll be akin to feeling a prick on the finger." Shiro forced a smile as the spell activated.

*BOOM!!!

Activating simultaneously, a golden barrier appeared around the city as everyone within this barrier started to heal.

Those that had been turned into a puddle of blood revived before looking around in confusion. All of their injuries disappeared as Shiro closed her eyes to block out the pain that she was feeling. Even after reviving them and eliminating the obstacles in their way, some will still receive injuries from falling debris. A golden barrier would prevent them from getting hurt but the pain would return to Shiro instead.

While the pain wasn't continuous thanks to the use of Shared Burden, the first impact still injured her.

With life fire constantly burning around her, the wounds closed as soon as they appeared but Nimue knew that the stress Shiro was placing on her body increased.

[Divine Support Class Spell Created, would you like to name the spell?]

"Name it later. I don't have time for this. Just tell me the requirements and the cooldown." Shiro retorted as the system changed screens immediately.

[Divine Support Class Spell – Protection of the Goddess]

In a designated area, no one shall die and all the damage is transferred to you instead. Those that die will be revived and those that suffer lethal injuries will be fine.

Requirements – The caster must be the recipient of all the injuries.
