Chapter 571 Attack



While Dexter\'s shape was formless, his rank had already progressed to the Mythician rank.

The Shadowmancer was Nial\'s strongest Devil, he was even stronger than Erio.

That was something Nial got to know the moment they returned to the Orion Shelter. While Nial had been away to summon the Shadowmancer Dexter the entire situation around the plateau region had changed drastically.

More than a few thousand dungeon beasts had emerged on Jundra due to the dungeon breakouts. They fought each other every now and then but their focus was clearly on spreading out and expanding their territory and establishing dominance. The area around the Origin shelter was already flooded by hundreds of thousands of dungeon beasts.

Nial visualized them not long after returning to the Orion Shelter where they were greeted by Ryu and the other Devils.

[That formless bastard is really there…] The Tyrant of Destruction cursed Nial\'s mind so that every Devil could hear each other.

[To think that someone as dumb as you is still alive is clearly a miracle.] Dexter taunted in a seemingly calm voice, just for Kaeldur to emerge from the Heart of Darkness.

Kaeldur looked over to Dexter and then he turned to Tyrant, shaking his head lightly.

Nial patted Ryu as the tension between the three Devils escalated. Erio appeared next to Ryu and he sat down demanding to be caressed as well. The huge Lion was not easy to please with caresses since Nial\'s hands were not even as large as the fangs of the Eclipse Fire Lion.

Thus, Nial had begun to manifest large hands out of his dark energy to take care of the Eclipse Fire Lion while he continued to pat Ryu. His ears perked up as he listened to the discussion between the three old Devils, only for the emergency siren to interrupt their discussion.

"Looks like you guys won\'t be able to reminisce about your long-forgotten memories today. How about you guys work together to negate the dangers outside the Orion Shelter?" Nial asked, which sounded more like an order.

Nial then turned to Erio whom he gave a gentle slap to make him get up from the ground. Ryu ascended in the air, unwillingly, and he sent over pieces of information about the situation in the surrounding area every now and then.

Nial was the only one to understand the meaning behind Ryu\'s incessant chirping. He knew what the Darkness Gryphon was saying whether he chirped inside his head or in front of him.

That made things easier, though Nial was not exactly sure how important it was for him to receive a report about the situation in the surrounding area. His range of perception enhanced by the Innate ability Mana Sense was more than enough to perceive everything in the entire plateau region as long as anything possessed even the slightest trace of mana.

If there were to be beings without Mana, Nial would actually sense the lack of mana in the area as well. However, in that case, it would be better to have someone like Ryu around, a powerful scout.

While Nial remained inside the Orion Shelter at first, the Devils charged outside. His subdued beasts, or what was left behind of the thousands of beasts he had subdued with his Dominion ability, were fighting with the beasts who had gone wild.

Nial perceived all kinds of dungeon beasts, even prey and predator that were rushing to the Orion shelter while standing next to each other. While it was interesting to see that something forced both the prey and predator to flee from the mountain-range region and attack the Orion Shelter, Nial was not actually ready to waste his time researching anything.

Most dungeon beasts were at the Deux rank, which meant that there was not much for Nial to do, either way. He sent out two Mythician-ranked Devils and then there were Ryu, Kaeldur, and Tyrant. While they were still at the Deux rank, their combat prowess was clearly comparable to dungeon beasts at the Keltia-rank. It was only some time until they would advance to the Keltia-rank as well.

But even if Nial didn\'t really have to do anything, there were a bunch of Keltia-ranked dungeon beasts in the first wave of beasts that attacked them. Without thinking too much about it, Nial exerted the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique with which he emerged outside the shelter walls. A grey spear with a sharp and pointed blade had emerged in his right hand which Nial began to twirl around his body before he charged toward the wave of beasts without hesitation.

Kaeldur had taken the form of a wild predator in which he tore his opponents apart before they could even react. His speed and acceleration were incredibly fast and rapid enough to kill a dozen beasts in a single breath. The Tyrant of Destruction made use of the weapon and strategy he was the most familiar with.

He manifested two huge darkness maces, one in each of his huge hands, to make use of his terrifically high physical strength as much as possible.

Half a dozen of opponents were killed in the blink of an eye and it was clear to see that Tyrant\'s movements were getting more refined. He was still in his peak form and not yet rusty but he had to warm up a little before going all out.

On the other hand, Erio and Ryu fought in a completely different manner. While Ryu focused solely on his superiority in the sky to manifest countless attacks with his darkness affinity that were then thrown to the ground at Nial\'s opponents, Erio\'s combat style was a combination of raw strength and the utilization of his sharp weapons as a natural predator, and the use of the Eclipse Fire.

The Eclipse Fire caused fear and terror wherever it spread, and the exact same happened due to the appearance of the ten-meter-tall Lion that wreaked havoc wherever Nial could see.

Nial emerged in the midst of his opponents where he began to exert the Weaponry of Ten Thousand Nights martial arts technique. The martial arts technique taught Nial the use of all kinds of weapons and how to use them perfectly in synchronization with dark energy.

That was something Nial had learned a few years ago and he was willing to test out how far he had progressed with the Weaponry of Ten Thousand Nights technique!

He naturally inserted dark energy inside the grey spear and thrust it into his first opponent. The moment the tip of his spear came in contact with the hide of the Heavy Armored Rhinoceros that had been his first target, a flood of dark energy emerged from within the spear. The flood of dark energy was naturally compressed and it turned into a blast of darkness that shot inside the heavily armored beast\'s body ripping it apart from the inside with great ease.

The Heavy Armored Rhinoceros issued a pained bellow before it collapsed on the ground a moment later. Nial moved around the beast smoothly. He slashed the grey spear at his next opponent and cut it in half as easily as he had killed the Heavy Armored Rhinoceros.

Dark energy oozed out of the tip of the grey spear and it formed shapes that were shot forward the moment Nial\'s attacks were executed.

That was the essence of the Weaponry of Ten Thousand Nights technique and Nial was beginning to get the hang of it…and it felt great!
