Kill the Sun - Chapter 752

The activation of Nick's Barrier was the signal for a calamity.

Everything around Nick moved at impossible speeds.

Despite his Barrier being active for only a split second, things already started to happen before it even deactivated.

The first thing that happened was that Lust immediately fled.

But the second thing that happened...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

A massive white laser hit the ground far away from Nick and dug into the ground.

The trajectory of the laser directly targeted the spot where Lust had just been.

Before Nick could even perceive what was happening, the white laser vanished, and a white figure shot into the hole.

This was the reason why Lust had been so insanely careful in this area and why there had not been any wild servant of his.

This was where the Right Arm stayed.

The Right Arm was constantly busy trying to find Pestilence in the Grand Continent.

The Trio of Destruction and the Corruptors knew approximately where the Right Arm was, and they knew that he was somewhere in the surrounding 3,000 kilometers.

The Right Arm and the Left Arm were the only Early Shields that Aegis had, and they were also the most powerful besides the Champion of Light.

At this point, it was important to highlight the actual reason why Nick had changed shape in front of Lust.

The reason was that exposing his shape-shifting capabilities to a Corruptor was not as bad as exposing it to Aegis.

As far as the Right Arm knew, the angry Specter was just one of Julian Winter's servants.

Everything had been prepared beforehand.

The Right Arm had been told to wait near this place.

Julian Winter would give him the signal with his Barrier.

If Nick had still been in his disguise as the angry Specter, the Right Arm would become suspicious.

Why did this unknown Specter also have one of their Barriers?

Even more, the Barrier's serial number would show that this was Nick's Barrier.

Lastly,if Nick had remained in his disguise as the angry Specter, the Right Arm might not have cared about him that much and accidentally killed him together with Lust.

While Nick's Barrier was still in the process of deactivating, the Right Arm's shining figure reached the depths of Lust's location.

He immediately sensed the Zephyx left behind by Lust.

He knew that he had hit Lust with his attack, but he hadn't killed it.

Without hesitating, an explosion of light expanded from the Right Arm.

A gigantic cave with a radius of ten kilometers was created.

It even broke the surface, creating an impossibly deep hole.

Magma and molten metals flooded the cave in an instant as the Right Arm immediately turned to his right.

He had hit Lust again!

The Right Arm pulled a majestic claymore out of its sheath and charged towards Lust.

SHING!

He swung the claymore, and a crescent of white light flew forward at lightspeed.

The crescent hit something, and Lust's precise location appeared in the Right Arm's mind.

BANG!

The Right Arm continued shooting forward, continually releasing lasers all around him.

The earth shook and collapsed.

It was like the end of the world had arrived!

Lust's location was continuously updated in the Right Arm's mind.

Then, he thrust his sword forward, unleashing a focused laser.

BANG!

A 30-kilometer-long but thin hole was created.

The power of the Right Arm was terrifying.

However, the hole didn't only pierce the ground.

It also pierced Lust's abdomen!

Impossibly powerful earthquakes shook the southern part of the Grand Continent.

Crevices, kilometers wide, stretched for hundreds of kilometers.

More and more locusts entered the underground.

Finally, an entire three seconds later, something else happened.

The zombie with the hearse fled.

The cloud of locusts waiting beside the cave left...

And a gigantic red tank appeared at the entrance of the cave, the muzzle of its cannon pointed down.

War fired.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The ground exploded.

A crater with a radius of over 20 kilometers was created.

An instant later, a kilometer-wide stream of magma shot out from the ground and flew into the sky.

War was surrounded by the lava, but it didn't care.

War waited for just a tiny moment before vanishing.

Famine and Pestilence had weakened the Right Arm's Zephyx, and War finished the job.

From the moment the Right Arm had received Nick's signal, he knew that he wouldn't see the next day.

When the Shields created the plan, they originally planned to consolidate their forces.

But then, the Right Arm had stepped forward.

"We have over ten Peak Protectors that can become Shields, but we are always lacking in Protectors. A Shield can be easily replaced. Protectors can't."

Then, the Right Arm laughed.

"Also,I think Zandur will easily surpass me in power if we just give him the chance."

So, it was decided.

The Shields would protect the strongholds while leaving the Right Arm to fend for himself.

War's blast represented the end of the calamity.

In the past ten seconds, a Corruptor and a Shield had died.

However, not even a single Extractor, besides the Right Arm, died.

Humanity had dealt a devastating blow to Death.

But on the other hand, one of their most noble people was killed.

The Right Arm had been the Champion's public face.

The Right Arm had shown himself in many cities, and he had been one of the most recognized people in the world.

The Right Arm had stayed in the light, while the Left Arm stayed in the shadows.

The battle was over, and both sides had lost something.

Nevertheless, this was a trade that Aegis was willing to take.

Meanwhile, the Trio of Destruction knew that they had lost more.

Sure, Lust had been weaker than the Right Arm, but its effect on the world had been significant.

Lust had been ancient, and it knew how to take control of human cities.

This power was shared amongst the Corruptors, and it was the very reason why they were so valuable and dangerous.

Any new servant would lack the experience to achieve something like that.

While the world was calming down, a red-haired Specter with luxurious clothing waltzed through the wasteland.

Naturally, Nick had disguised himself again before the Trio of Destruction arrived.

As long as he looked like a regular Specter, the Trio of Destruction wouldn't even pay him any mind.

The reason for this calamity, Nick, was not noticed by the Trio of Destruction.

As before, they didn't know that Nick existed.

And that was how it was supposed to be.
