Chapter 1860: Battle Against Powerful Neo Angels II
"I cannot penetrate the will of the Goddess of Light Luminaria anymore. It is as if I am fully blocked by an enormous will that is different from hers." Ark stated.
"I fear that the Goddess of Light Luminaria is now trying to synchronize with the world, but we do not know that entirely. Do your best and wait for the chance once again. You might have a better chance is the Goddess of Light Luminaria does use her true form in the mortal realm as her state would be much easier to deceive." The young Samael stated as Ark once again went into meditation.
The young Samael did not show Ark that one of its hands is turning to gold. The sudden attack on Ark's soul earlier would have destroyed him if the young Samael did not sacrifice itself. The divine power of the Goddess of Light Luminaria is slowly corroding the last remnant of the originally most powerful angel.
"If he gets vaporized then the Goddess of Light Luminaria will fail but that would also mean the death of all the angels. You must live because the Dragon of Revelation can only be truly killed by you. You are the last hope of the Angels and the Devils." The young Samael stated as he started to collect all of his remaining will to make sure that Ark does not rot in this divine realm.
The Neo Angels were powerful but that does not mean they cannot easily defeat an army of hungry demigods. Divine essence is what demigods need in order to become gods themselves. Just enough would make them transform into lesser gods which is why hunting lesser gods has been the thing for demigods. It is also the reason why there are almost no cases of rampaging lesser gods in the central continent.
The lesser gods would not dare leave their sanctuaries as demigods become vultures when they are caught in foreign soil. The demigods that appeared were high in number because there are three beings that have the divine essence of a Greater God. There is also a High God in a sleeping state which is a good way to harvest divine essence.
The demigods did not even wait for the commands of the army generals as all of them charged towards the three neo angels. All of the demigods are hungry for divine essence as some have their lives nearing the end. If they do not become gods, then they would inevitably die of old age despite the power that they have. Even the players could see that most of the demigods that appeared are desperate.
"Should we join the fight?" Levin Cloud asked as Adrian was just observing as of now after his speech that garnered the attention of every demigod.
"Not yet. We will join the fight after an hour. Let us make sure that our forces are solid for now because we do not know what might happen. It is not just demigods that are eyeing the Goddess of Light Luminaria right now. I am sure that there are other beings around that are also interested in her divine essence." Adrian stated as he had this foreboding feeling that something might happen.
Adrian secretly gave some orders to Sirius to relay to the Shadow Unit. His limit break skill has also finished which is why he is now down to using three soulbounds at a time. He did not want to do unnecessary battles as the fights that the hundreds of demigods are doing is not something that they can interject. The demigods were basically hurling spells laced with divine energy against the Neo Angels.
"Those demigods are not fools. Even though I managed to get all of their attention, the demigods are not fighting with everything that they have. They are all waiting for something to happen before they get serious. Even if those Neo Angels are having a difficult time, the Goddess of Light Luminaria's cocoon barrier had no trace of damage.
Adrian observed carefully as he knew that the first hour is something that he had gained as a breathing room. The demigods were basically acting as the beings that carried the weight of the current allied army. Also, Levin Cloud managed to revive a lot of dead players and NPCs but that does not mean they are back to peak condition.
The players that were revived were only half in health while the NPCs were extremely disoriented. They are basically brought back to the land of the living because the Goddess of Light Luminaria's presence is disrupting the natural flow of the world. She should not have been able to descend to the central continent at this point in time which is why she is doing more harm to the world than she thought.
"This would be much easier if the Daemos were not maintaining the world barrier and fixing the numerous rifts that the Goddess of Light Luminaria is creating." Adrian thought as he started to give commands to all of his guild members.
The allied army generals were shocked to see dead soldiers revive on the spot as if they were never killed. They have heard of the rumors of these blessed beings (players) being able to revive from the dead but weaker and now they have seen even their own native soldiers do the same. The revival spell was done by none other than the Envoy of the Twin Gods that transformed into a large flaming wood giant.
All the allied generals immediately commanded a retreat to those that were just revived. They noticed that the newly revived were unfit for battle as they were weakened. Still, their problem is not yet done because numerous light monsters are still being generated by the Goddess of Light Luminaria even though she suddenly went to sleep.
The allied army had to fight while rescuing those that were just newly revived. The players, on the other hand, continued their fight against the Luxera as they have gotten used to being revived on the spot. The players tried to join the battle against the Neo Angels, but the demigods were at another level.
One of the players tried to join the bombardment of the demigods but he was the one that got bombarded in the end. The player got caught in the crossfire between the Neo Angels and the demigods. Each Neo Angel had a specialty which made them incredibly difficult to defeat even if they are outnumbered.
The Angel of Patience Gabriel is like a tall mountain that can casually flick a demigod's spell with ease. He would even take damage just to have the spell be bounced back by his shields. Once the attack or spell was blocked, the Angel of Humility Mikhail would counterattack immediately which left demigods to dodge.
The attack power of the Angel of Humility Mikhail was on another level as he could easily kill a demigod in under five attacks. He was the epitome of perfection in the perspective of the Goddess of Light Luminaria. He was the best attacker, defender, and even spell caster in all of the angels as he occupied their highest seat called Seraphim.
The Angel of Humility Mikhail did not even care about any damage done to him as he had the backup of the best healer. The Angel of Kindness Raphael would basically heal 30% of the missing health of his comrades with just a simple wave of holy light. He might not be able to attack or deal damage but his heals might even be able to bring the dead back to life.
The Angel of Patience Gabriel and the Angel of Humility Mikhail did not even care if they get hit anymore as long as the Angel of Kindness Raphael is alive. Some demigods tried to assassinate the Angel of Kindness Raphael, but they were the ones that were slaughtered in the most gruesome way. As if the two angels were giving a warning to all their attackers that the Angel of Kindness Raphael is not to be targeted.
To make matters worse for the current allied army, even the Luxera could be healed by the Angel of Kindness Raphael. Compared to the other two neo angels, the Luxera would recover 50% of their health immediately after two minutes of taking damage. A powerful healing wave would be released by the Angel of Kindness Raphael every two minutes which healed their allies in the entire area.
The most annoying being in the battlefield right now would be the Angel of Kindness Raphael but he is too heavily protected to be killed. Also, he has the power level of a greater god which meant that ordinary assassination would basically be impossible. In the end, Adrian had to squeeze his brain to make a plan that would ensure their survival and victory.
"I guess the only option would be hit and run." Adrian muttered as his guild members all look to him with anticipation of their battle plan.
