Chapter 903: Gods and Saints

Somewhere on Andora Planet.

A group of young kids, no more than 15 years old, were sneaking out of an outpost making their way into the thick withered forest. The five of them all moved swiftly, but also cautiously, as if afraid their actions would be discovered.

A suppressed voice of someone rang out amidst the silence.

"This better be worth it, Jim!"

"Less talking and more looking, Belle."

"Look, if the general finds out that we left the outpost…"

The one who called Jim interrupted the voice by saying, "We just need to make sure my father doesn't find out we're gone, alright? Besides, this is very important! I'm sure he will understand if we explain it later."

Even though they were grumbling, the other four kids still continued to follow him. From this, it could be clearly seen that the young man called Jim was the leader of this small gang.

Some time later, someone's voice suddenly sounded in the air. He sounded really excited, as if they had discovered a gold mine.

"Guys! Here! We found it."

"Blessing to our goddess mother," said Belle with her hand, forming a praying gesture. Meanwhile, Jim was slowly and gently plucking a flower with light blue petals from the ground.

The expression of one of the boys soured when he heard Belle's words. "Huh, Belle, why are you still praying to that false god?!"

After plucking the flower and storing it safely in the prepared container, Jim and his group of friends were ready to return to the hideout. But, just as they were about to do so, they suddenly saw a spectacular view in the sky and were captivated by it.

"Belle, is that?! Your prayer was answered! God has come for us!" The boy who had scolded her earlier said excitedly.

The magnificent dark construct that was seen looming above them gradually fell from the sky. The rumbling sound originating from it caused the children to cover their ears with their hands, while moments later strong tremors began to be felt on the ground.

The children, who wanted to return first to bring the good news, were shocked when they saw hordes of bloodthirsty creatures roaming the plains suddenly heading where the hideout was.

"No! No! There are too many of them! Father!"

Seeing the impending danger that could potentially devastate everything, Jim quickly took out a tube from his sleeve and lit it, sending a firework blazing brightly high into the sky as a warning to those in the hideout.

Immediately after, the five children ran with all their might towards the rocky hills a mile away, where the outpost was built.

"Carra! Belle! Hurry!"

As Jim turned to see his friends, however, he was quickly terrified, when he realized a group of those flying monsters were chasing after them. The terrified look on his face caught the attention of the others, causing them to also turn their heads only to have their face turn the same.

"No! Run! RUN!!!"

Jim could only cry when he saw his friend - the one who reprimanded Belle - being ripped apart by the flying creatures' sharp claws. His arms were severed from his body one by one, before a claw penetrated through his chest and destroyed his heart.

Tears ran down his cheek like a flood, as he watched his friend's body fall down like a broken puppet. The pleading look he saw was etched in his memory.

Jim turned and ran. He ran, ran and ran, until he finally got closer to the outpost, where he caught the sight of his father standing on top of the wall with a turret gun in his hand.

Tartatatatatata! The sound of turret guns blasting bullets like a heavy downpour rang out in the air, but were quickly drowned out by the shrieks of approaching bloodthirsty flying creatures.

"Hurry, Jim! Run!"

Under the heavy fire of the turret gun, three of them managed to enter one of the cave tunnels that led to the hidden outpost surrounded by rocks. The interior of the outpost was quickly filled with chaos, as a hundred strong men stood on top of the rocks, firing their weapons at the incoming monsters.

However, their struggle seemed futile in comparison to the thousand of creatures that ravaged across the land and hundreds that reigned over the sky, like a group of ants against an unstoppable tsunami.

Still, even if they knew they had a very small, if not none, chance of surviving this disaster, these people had nowhere else to run. At least, this way, their fate finally ended up like all other settlements, dying while fighting against the apocalypse that destroyed their world.

Amidst the chaos, Belle was kneeling and praying to her gods. Meanwhile, seeing that all the men were fighting, Jim decided to pick up a weapon himself and join the fight. Even though it might be meaningless, he still wanted to contribute what he could.

Tratatatatatratatata!

The sound of gunfire continuously filled the air.

Unfortunately, the monsters were simply too strong for their weapons. It might be somewhat effective to the spider-like creatures that crawled on the land, but for the flying ones, it took dozens of successful shots before one of those creatures fell.

Jim could clearly see how the outpost was about to be run down, as the crawling creatures started to climb the walls. He knew it was the end for them, when these creatures arrived on the top.

Trattatatatat! Tratatatatat!

In a situation like this, where nothing but despair could be seen on the horizon, Jim started to shout at the gods Belle believed in.

"Goddess Mother! Where are you?! Why did you do this to us?! We beg you mercy!"

As soon his shout dissipated in the air, it was as if the sky shook. A thunderous sound rang out, startling both the humans and monsters alike.

Zaaappp!

A huge lightning bolt descended from the sky like a spear and instantly killed dozens of crawling monsters and several flying creatures that were unlucky enough to get in its path. Jim raised his head and was taken aback by what he saw.

The lightning strike actually came from a beautiful young woman sitting on a large bird that was currently flying in the sky. With a wave of her hand, she sent bolts of lightning upon the vile creatures.

Her appearance quickly revived the depiction of higher beings to Jim and all those who saw her.

"Goddess, is that you?!"

To his great surprise, right behind the woman on the bird, Jim saw several other figures flying on a unique-looking board.

There were a few dozen of them and they all started firing all sorts of different magic at the hordes of creatures below. Explosions and many other splendid phenomena occurred, stunning Jim and the others who were watching.

There were also a few who jumped off their boards, plunging straight into the dense mob, before killing them with their weapons.

"The saints… The saints have come. We are saved!"

Blazing fire, crackling lightning, storming wind and much more. All elements existing in the world were thrown by these people. Within a few minutes, the creatures that were being one-sidedly annihilated started to separate and run in all directions.

One of those saints came down, landing right in front of the frightened Jim. Even though the other party appeared to be only a man a few years older than him, Jim didn't have the courage to look him in the eye.

"Are you alright, kid? You are safe now." The young man said with a warm smile. "My name is Emery. Can you lead me to the person in charge?"

Even though visibly nervous, Jim nodded his head when he heard the young man's words. Seeing this, the latter smiled and gestured to him to lead the way.

As Emery follows the kid, walking across dozens of the abyss creature corpses, he suddenly stops. He checked on one of the corpses to find there was something familiar about it.

What is this creature really?
