Chapter 289 - Collapse of the Ladros City: The Flame Master
The giant magic circle above the Ladros City glowed brightly. It emitted dense energy as the four seven-circle officers that build it activated its effect.
Ohm!
All the seven-circle officers on the ground looked up. They knew that their comrades succeeded in casting the [Great Teleportation] Spell. Now, they only needed to take care of Bargan, the most powerful person in this city, and everything will be done according to their plan.
A girl with long black hair was looking at the sky with a faint smile on her face. She wore a light makeup and black color lipstick. Her black robe couldn't hide her seductive body.
She was Frammie, a high-level seven-circle officer of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Currently, she was standing on top of a small building. When they've arrived here, she was the one who didn't cause destruction in the city. Her role wasn't to gather the attention of the strong people here. Gathering attention? That's the role of her comrades of who were currently fighting the teachers of the Ladro Institute.
Her role in this operation was to create a gateway to this city inside the barrier.
"It's time..." Frammie muttered as she widely opened her arms and her mana burst out of her body.
[Connecting Transportation Gate]!!
A magic circle that was emitting crimson color light formed beneath her feet. Then, a huge portal formed just below the barrier of the city.
This portal was connected to the [Great Teleportation] Spell that the seven-circle officers outside the barrier casted.
Everything was going smoothly for them.
Using the teleportation spell as a lure so that Bargan would try to stop it. Then, six officers would stop him and connecting the teleportation spell in case the city lord activated the city barrier. It's within their calculations.
After a few moments, countless people wearing the black robe of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Three thousand one-circle, one thousand two-circle, eight hundred three-circle, five hundred four-circle, three hundred five-circle, and fifty six-circle officers came out of the giant portal.
The forces of the Seven Deadly Sins descended on the city with overwhelming momentum.
The city lord, the adventurers, the nobles, and the other small factions in the city looked at this scene with a pale expression. The Seven Deadly Sins was serious in wiping out this city.
"This... Souta is right." Lumilia muttered while looking at the people of the Seven Deadly Sins.
"What should we do, Mila?" Lynn asked Lumilia with a concerned look on her face.
Lumilia took a deep breath and said, "We'll have no choice but to fight them..." She needed to command the Dark Oculus Legion and helped the city fight those people.
She only has Lynn, Alice, and Yujin with her. So the strength of their legion wasn't that high. She didn't know what she could do but she will try her best.
The Lanny corporation also mobilized its forces they prepared themselves to fight those people along with the other forces of the city. Even the organizations behind the black market were planning to help everyone in fighting the forces of the Seven Deadly Sins. They had no choice but to help as the Seven Deadly Sins were going to kill everyone in this city including the criminal organizations that were lurking in the shadows.
...
Boom! Boom!
Bargan moved his body nimbly as he chased the six seven-circle officers while shooting powerful flame beams.
Yuvn and the two seven-circle officers who possessed blessings were trying to fight Bargan while protecting their comrades who didn't have the power of blessings.
Powerful explosions and shockwaves continued to rush out in the surrounding every time they shoot their attacks. The battle in this place was on an entirely different level than the battle in the city.
Everyone that was below SS-rank would perish because of the high temperature and the shockwaves in this battle.
Boom! Boom!
The mini sun behind Bargan shoots an enormous ray of flames. Yuvn and the other moved their body quickly and they barely avoided the Bargan's attack.
The ray of flames went into the distance and it disintegrated a whole mountain ten kilometers away from the city. The flames turned everything into ashes including the monsters that were living in that mountain. No one managed to survive including those third evolution monsters.
The monsters which were left outside the city and couldn't enter the city because of the city barrier were long gone. The moment Bargan used the [Scorching Day Sun], the monsters quickly died and turned into ashes. The only reason why the people inside the city didn't die was because of the city barrier that could hold its own against the attack of a god-level powerhouse.
"This guy is too strong. He could fight us who possessed the power of blessings." Yuvn said with a grave expression while looking at Bargan.
Bargan was fighting them alone with just his own strength. It's unbelievable. He wouldn't believe it if someone told him about it but reality proves him wrong. Bargan was fighting three people who were using the power of blessing.
"You're too naive if you thought you could defeat me using the blessings of your god," Bargan said sternly. His mana was fluctuating heavily around him.
"Tsk! We never thought that we could defeat you." Yuvn replied to him. Yeah, his words were right. Ever since he gathered information about Bargan, he realized that he couldn't defeat him. That's why he brought to other people that have the power of blessing and the other three seven-circle officers to help him hold Bargan back.
"Hmph!" Bargan snorted as he flashed towards Yuvn and the rest. An intense concentration of flames formed around his fist and he threw it towards Yuvn.
Swoosh!
The two people who had blessings went in front of Yuvn and blocked Bargan's powerful attack by combining their energy together.
Their blessing was much more powerful than normal blessings. It was because the Seven Deadly Sins were more powerful than ordinary god. Their god was at the peak in terms of strength in the god-level. Still, it wasn't enough to push back Bargan who was said to be the strongest man below god.
Without the blessing, they would die at Bargan's hand long ago.
Yuvn lifted up his feet and kicked Bargan. Bargan stepped backward and the two people at his side threw a punch in his direction.
Bang! Bang!
Bargan grabbed both of their fists and saw Yuvn closed the distance in an instant. He quickly released the fists of the two people before flying above them.
As soon as he flew above the three people the other three seven-circle officers who didn't have blessings cast several powerful spells in his direction.
Bargan waved his hand and the mini sun created a heatwave that forced everyone to create a barrier. The heatwave caused the spells to exploded in the mid-air even before reaching him.
Boom!!
"Go," Yuvn said as he charged towards Bargan. The other two flew to the side and they were going to corner Bargan.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bargan exchanged high speed blows at them before he noticed a high mana fluctuation above him. He glanced upward and saw that the four people who casted the [Great Teleportation] spell were casting another spell.
Yuvn didn't let this chance slipped away as he launched a series of powerful attacks along with his comrades.
Bargan was caught off guard as the flame barrier around him crack under their mad attacks. After a few moments, the barrier was shattered as it turned into tiny particles.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Yuvn and the other two's attack fiercely landed on his body causing a series of small explosions around him.
[Weakening Exploding Fatal Punch]!
Bargan spat a mouthful of blood before gritting his teeth and waving his hands. The particles of the flame barrier moved and gathered into a small ball of flames above them.
"Not good. An inner spell." Yuvn knitted his brows when he saw this he tried to move away along with his two comrades but they were too late.
[Heavenly Flame Core Bomb]!
In an instant, Bargan casted a high-level spell even without forming its magic circle.
Boom!
The spell exploded above them as the sea of flames rushed out in every direction. It formed a circle that swallowed everything at the diameter of three kilometers.
A large crimson ball formed in the sky above the Ladros City. A three-kilometer flaming ball emitted a blinding light like a sun that could burn anything.
Although the size of the explosion was only three kilometers, all the creatures within ten kilometers died instantly, and the heat could be felt within eighty kilometers diameter with the crimson flaming ball as the center.
The neighboring cities of the Ladros City felt the vibration on the ground and the intense heat in the atmosphere.
In the Gripin City, everyone looked up and saw a crimson ball of flames far away from their city. Everyone realized that something big was happening in the direction.
"That's... the direction of the Ladros City..." Ursus muttered in shocked as he looked at the crimson ball of flames in the sky.
