My Space-Time System - Chapter 601: Being a nuisance
After arriving at the barracks, Blake strode forward casually leaving behind a clone in his previous location while instantly entering a concealed state.
“It’s time to shut down the barrier,” he whispered to himself as he flew in the direction of The Square.
In the wake of Blake’s departure, the concealed clone he left behind swiftly sprang into action. It conjured ten spatial corridors across the expanse of the barracks, suspended in the air and drawing the attention of unsuspecting soldiers within the compound.
As the soldiers’ curiosity piqued, their gazes fixed upon the spatial corridors, Ten Angels walked out of the spatial corridors one by one. “Aren’t those the Angels of Tigeria?”
“How?”
Fear gripped the hearts of the troops as they silently prayed for that their eyes were playing tricks on them.
Without hesitation, the angels unleashed their formidable spells upon the barracks and its inhabitants. It was only after some soldiers and buildings were blown to bits that most of them came to their senses and began fleeing.
An Angel with a wave of its hand, conjured arctic blasts that crystallized the surroundings, encasing soldiers and barracks alike in ice, freezing the air with bone-chilling cold.
At the same time, another Angel called forth thunderous storms. Lightning crackled across the barracks, striking with unrelenting force, and ripping through walls and structures.
In a matter of seconds, chaos overwhelmed the barracks. However, the Angels positioned in The Square had arrived at the scene to confront them.
…
In the medical area, numerous tents sprawled across the grounds, each housing wounded soldiers tended by healers. The air was heavy with the scent of medicinal herbs and echoes of muffled groans.
Within one such tent, wounded soldiers lay on beds, attended to by diligent healers. A healer worked fervently to bandage a soldier’s grievous stab wound to his belly. However, as the healer focused on the injury, a chilling transformation began to manifest. The soldier’s shoulder swelled, distorting unnaturally, revealing the unsettling shape of a contorted face lurking beneath the skin.
Horror and disbelief gripped the healer’s face as the shoulder bloated further. Gasps and startled cries erupted from nearby patients and healers who turned their attention towards the unfolding spectacle, their faces etched with a mixture of shock and dread.
Suddenly, the ground beneath the tent quivered as numerous thorny vines erupted with startling speed. Before anyone could react, the vines shot through the ground, lashing out with deadly precision, impaling healers and patients alike.
A bone-chilling laughter reverberated through the tent, sending shivers down the spines of those present. The bloated shoulder finally separated from the body, revealing a horrifying sight. Emerging from the separated flesh was the Arboreal Reaper, Verdigris. His crazed grin stretched across his face as he spoke. “The chaos has finally begun.”
During the ambush he had unleashed his parasites on the champion realm Hero, easily taking control of his body. To avoid all forms of suspicion, he controlled the soldier to stab himself.
Verdigris stood with an eerie calmness amidst the carnage as his shoulders began to swell, distorting unnaturally as a sinister transformation took shape.
With a crackling sound, the bloated flesh of his shoulders split open. From within the swell, his recently acquired Angel puppets emerged, standing tall beside him.
With a crazed smile etched upon his face, Verdigris spoke in a voice that sent chills down the spine of all who heard it. “Time to join the show.”
…
After warping the Angels of Tigeria into Dustar, Blake’s clone hadn’t remained idle.
Once the battle between the Angels began, the clone warped behind an Angel who was caught up defending lightning barrages.
Inferno Strike!
The clone used Emberforge to unleash a searing crescent flame that enveloped the target before exploding.
BOOM! .
The Angel was briefly distracted by the fiery attack but that was all that was needed as the lightning attack bypassed his defenses, dealing serious damage. Watching the Angel holding back his pained scream the clone knew the vitality of an Angel was not something that could be overwhelmed easily. The clone vanished, appearing behind his next target but at that moment, everyone was already aware of his presence. Sensing the clone appearing behind him, the new target snorted disdainfully as his body lit up in fierce flame, surging around like a fiery tempest. The fierce flames soon solidified into a two-headed avatar with four hands, each covering both sides to keep an eye on his previous opponent and the clone. If Blake was here, the first thing that would have come to his head was a Susanoo.
‘Creation pathway of the fire element.’ The clone clicked its tongue as it saw the Susanoo was sentient.
While the Synder empire Angel focused on his battle with the Tigerian empire Angel, the other face of the fiery avatar focused its attention on the clone behind.
Clasping hands together and moving them apart, a fiery sword was conjured and without hesitation it slashed at the clone brutally. “C’mon, you should know better by now.” The clone calmly shook its head in response to the attack. When the sword was a few metres away from the clone’s head a spatial tear appeared in its path. An attack unleashed could not be withdrawn midway; the fiery blade made its way into the spatial tear and came out at the exit positioned above an Angel of the Synder empire.
“Shit!” The Angel was taken by surprise, but still managed to block the attack in time. However, that resulted to an opening that the Tigerian Angel didn’t miss.
The clone was in no way done, it created another spatial tear that swallowed a fierce lightning spell of a Synder empire Angel. The exit appeared above the fiery construct and from there bolts of lightning descended, raining down on the fiery avatar relentlessly.
“On to the next.” The clone revealed a satisfied smirk as it warped to another part of the battlefield to continue being a nuisance.
Within just a few minutes of its involvement in this battle, Blake’s clone had created so much chaos for the enemy side, quickly turning the tide of battle in the favor of its allies.
