Chapter 871: Burning fires, burning stones (2)
Erik opened his eyes. He concentrated enough to command the remaining mana he had available.
He channeled it through his neural links, and the Wyvern's flame brain crystal power activated.
Erik felt the energy surging through him. The gang members were awfully close to him.
There was no time, or space, to run anymore. Erik had to act now.
<Leave! > Erik ordered June.
The clone started flying. The wings carried his gigantic body up and up.
All bands of giant mercenaries fled the scene. They had to leave the bodies of their comrades there.
At best, they were going to retrieve them later.
The problem was, they were too close to Erik's radius. By the time they came back, there was nothing they could save, nothing they could collect.
What was going to remain were only ashes and death.
The wyvern's flame was a powerful brain crystal power.
Mana could change the flame intensity, radius, length. The problem was that it was really slow to channel mana through its neural links.
Erik didn't know why this power was so slow, but as much as it was, it was incredibly dangerous.
Erik didn't use it inside the town hall extensively because he was trapped inside the structure.
Besides, if he killed Shade, he wouldn't have gotten information from him. Worse, he would have missed out on the man's brain crystal power.
Erik looked up. The gang members were just a few meters from him. June was safe in the sky, circling around him. His beating wings created an air current in the area.
<Good, that will spread the flames. >
Erik grinned, and then he released all the mana he accumulated.
Immediately, a gigantic tongue of fire spread. Its center was a man holding a sword and wearing a grin.
The flames washed those in front of Erik. A sword strike almost hit him in the eye, but the sword melted, creating a red hot liquid that washed the ground like water.
The gang members were the next to perish. Their clothes got burned to ashes, their skin blistered, then turned red, then black, then ashen.

June observed the carnage from above. Erik was unleashing hell upon the gang members.
The fire was strong and wide, and it engulfed the town hall and the plaza surrounding it in a crimson light.
The problem was that it didn't go far, and there were many people still rushing toward the receding inferno in the distance.
Some people also had brain crystal powers related to water.
They were few, but still present. Erik wondered why elementalists were among the ranks of the underworld.
They created column of waters that attacked the fire, creating vast clouds of steaming hot vapor.
The attacks were efficient in stopping the fire from claiming more lives, but the vapor it released was as deadly as the fire they extinguished.
The fog came close to June, who was forced to move to avoid the deadly gas from enveloping his body and bringing him to death.
But as he moved, he saw it, even felt it. Erik was in a dangerous state. He used almost 40% of his whole mana at the same time.
Erik possessed nearly 700 energy points, and while the wyvern's fire was potent, it required a lot of mana to be sustained.
His master was spent, drenched in sweat, and was losing consciousness.
The flames were still raging, the surrounding buildings were on fire, a vast light spread across the land, illuminating the abandoned city, which appeared more and more like a lighthouse in the night sky.
As the flames dwindled further, the gang members pressed forward.
<June. >
Without wasting a second, the giant wyvern dove. The heat made from the fire was scorching.
June flapped his wings to abate the fire surrounding his master. He landed, the hot pavement burning beneath his lizard feet.
Erik barely reached June, stumbling down twice.
Though a satisfied smirk played on his lip. He gave enough time for the band of giants to
leave.
There had been many deaths among their ranks, but what they did with his help... It wasn't possible to quantify it. frёewebnoѵēl.com
They destroyed the underworld, destroyed one of the most important pawns' the blackguards
had.
But those weren't the only thing Erik and his comrades achieved. Most importantly, the guild
master leveled up 14 times.
He was happy... but tired.
<Remind me to never do this shit ever again. >
<Don't worry, Master. I would have said it even if you didn't ask. Besides, I think it's time for you to start considering powering up the clones. I'm reaching the limit of battles I can fight. The powers I got, and the strength I inherited from you, is not enough anymore. > <Why? Because you are not overwhelming anymore? Didn't you stop Shade from escaping
pretty easily? >
Erik asked as they flew away from the abandoned city.
<Yes. But Shade was weak. The number of people we are fighting right now, it's too big. I can manage groups, as we did in Gabriel's villa, but...>
June's thoughts paused for a moment.
Back in the town hall, if he fought alone, he would have died. He survived only thanks to Erik.
<Master, I think it's time to find an appropriate helper. >
Erik didn't know how to take that request. He grew attached to June. The fella, the clone, was more than just that. He was a friend, a brother even.
However, Erik swore to never treat his clones as expendables, at least those he kept close.
He knew the ones he left with Noah were bound to fight a bloody battle against the
Blackguards in Fasard. Casualties were bound to be present too.
This meant he didn't want to treat June like something he could leave behind.
<We will talk about this once we are home. >
<We will find no one, > June said. <By now, the rescue mission must be under full swing. Do
you think they will be able to save ou-your father? >
Erik didn't miss the slip up. <Yes, Noah will rescue dad. Of that, I'm sure. >
