Chapter 346: War Begins
"What do you mean by roles?" Yelwon raised her eyebrows.
The guild leaders formed a ground behind a huge pillar while other members stood behind.
"First of all, proceeding towards that city is dangerous," Rin said. "After crossing a bit more distance, we'll get a warning that only people with 100k Power Level should go there."
"In short, that area is pretty much like a mid-game or late-game area, eh?" Tony chimed in while rubbing his chin.
"That's right," Erix said while Rin nodded, and her eyes gleamed, using SPirit Force and Prana to project the scenery she saw from her eyes.
Soon, everyone saw a large building structure five kilometers wide, made of metals and crystals.
There were also building structures as well, with smaller Baiandrones and other types of Baiandrones with different types of tentacles and colors.
"I've scouted several hundred kilometers in all directions in this lake, and found some places," Rin said with a faint smile. "For our raid, we'll have to attack this factory."
Everyone understood.
Rin showed a few more places, but the first one was the factory.
It was a manufacturing factory of power cores that were refined from energy ores found in-depth mines.
These cores were used as potent energy sources and mediums to create more powerful sources for their weapons.
The group of 121 people traveled a hundred kilometers west, avoiding the city in the north.
Rin brought the group in a thick entangled water plant field on a hilly-like surface.
But three kilometers away was a big mountain, and it was their target.
"That mountain has three huge passages through its body and past any of them is the location of the factory," Rin said.
"I managed to sneak in easily while masking my presence and going past guards with my speed, but this time, we'll have to kill them."
"How many are there?" Mary asked. "And how powerful?"
"Each passage has four guards, between 40k to 50k Power level. After killing them and entering, we'll face our next challenge."
"And if you feel danger, escape to this location and enter this portal," Erix said before he waved his hand and created a horizontal portal on the surface.
"Jump into this portal and you'll be back at the starting area where the entry portal is located."
Everyone's eyes shone.
"Thank you, Mr. Erix."
"Haha, this is a big help. If stronger Baiandrones come after us, we can escape safely."
"Truly, thank you so much."
After the members spoke out of excitement and relief, the top rankers had no choice but to smilingly thank Erix for this life-saving route.
Whether they wanted or not, if push came to shove, they would have to use the portal to make their lives easier.
"Alright, part into three groups," Erix clapped his hand lightly and drowned other voices. "Each group will go into a passage and join the war."
"Actually, Heavenly Melody guild and Unfettered Fate will be one group," Isabella said with a smile. "The rest of the people can part into two bigger groups."
"Haha, that's balanced indeed," Rin grinned. "Alright, get in formation and go."
…
[Challenge: Kill all Baiadrones in the factory area and destroy all factories.]
[Power Level Requirement: 45k]
The guards Baiandrones soon felt some auras approaching them.
However, before they could proceed to investigate, all Baiandrones guards suddenly felt auras near them.
The top rankers arrived in their smaller party in both passages and swiftly killed eight guards before they could do anything because Erix directly teleported both parties into their respective passages.
On the other hand, Erix teleported all members of both guilds into the 3rd passage while others attacked the guards at once, killing all four in a couple of seconds.
After going past the passages, everyone indeed saw a huge land with factories and lots of Baiandrones.
Erix scanned everything quickly and said, "Most of them are at 20k-30k Power Level Baiandrones. They are working-class since they are the ones working everywhere here, numbering five hundred."
"The others are Baiandrones of 40k-50k Power, numbering one hundred. Let's name them guard-class since they are patrolling and guarding places in combat form similar to the four we fought."
"There are a few more powerful auras at the end," Erix narrowed his eyes as he looked at the end of the factory area, where a big mansion was located.
"Must be the boss area of this challenge," Roy said with a laugh. "But I guess boss Rin and Erix can make quick work of it."
"They are coming," Kenshin said as he narrowed his eyes.
Zoe grinned widely, with embers burning in her eyes and her Fulmin Blaze Spear lighting up, "Let's go!"
She vanished from her spot and zoomed towards the incoming Baiandrone guards and workers. Varan, Elena, Beatrice, Leon, and Maya joined her and began fighting.
The other two large groups also began combat.
"We are outnumbered, but we just have to kill more," Sameira said as she took out two a rifle with a long metallic jade blade attached to it.
Pointing at the incoming ten worker-class and two Guard-class Baiandrones, Sameira pointed her rifle, as it opened a magical scope and her aura exploded before infusing into the weapon.
"Bam," Erix grinned as he knew his mother-in-law was going to use the weapon he made to its full power.
Sameira pulled the trigger, lightning up patterns on the big rifle while consuming her various energies from power sources to execute her attack skill through the rifle.
*Boom!*
It released a spiraling round bullet of dark orange with dark blue sparks that vibrated in a condensed manner.
It exploded upon nearing the Baiandrone group, with Sameira's 3rd realm Shatter concept going on with full power in this attack while augmented by her elements and skills.
The explosion enveloped all 12 Baiandrones before a high-pressured atmospheric field manifested due to one of the effects of her Shatter concept. Your next read awaits at m v|l-e-NovelFire
All 12 Baiandrones were razed with the Flamestorm explosion in a raging storm of water and wind with blazing flames. But all of that was also affected by the Shatter Field, forcing everything to part into two. This effect instantly multiplied by 100 and more upon the enemies not being able to resist due to the Flamestorm explosion and their lack of defense against Shatter's power.
*Boom!*
All twelve Baiandrones were shattered, along with their weapons and other things, into hundreds of tiny perfect square parts.
"You two can go ahead for the boss. We will clear the mobs," Sameira grinned at Rin and Erix as she put the fancy long magic rifle on her shoulder.
"That's right," Kenshin smacked his gauntlets while laughing. "Of course, if you can spare some big shots for us, that would be great."
"Haha, alright." Erix laughed while Rin grabbed Erix's hand and grinned, "Then we'll be going ahead."
…
Baiandron Tribe's Royal Palace…
"King Kauiel. The humans have arrived and destroyed one of our power core factories."
"We managed to kill a few of their people, but the rest escaped."
"King, we can finally make our move since they breached the barrier."
King Kauil nodded while caressing one of his dark green honeycomb-micro-structured tentacles.
"Check our portal connections and prepare troops. Our people are limited, so we'll have to send people accordingly."
"We shall first send unmanned machines to attack those who attacked us and collect some data. It's good that they decided to attack us Baiandrones first."
King Kauli's face stretched a wide grin while a dark glint flickered in his big round eyes.
"We have been created for only one thing. To kill humans and take over this world to thrive and live further. Let's show them the power of Atlantis and our six tribes."
