Chapter 346: Finishing Blow
Chapter 346: Finishing Blow
"No way... Our Supernova Blaster with maximum capacity can't even inflict anything on a divine being? Is the distance between mortal and divine that far?" Nuraddir started to break out in cold sweat. Their most potent combined magic attack couldn't do anything, and they couldn't even gather data for this.
At this time, the dwarves started to feel scared. They looked once again at the Human Goddess in the sky. She possessed a heavenly appearance with divine golden eyes that seemed to shine.
A small sun hovered several hundred meters above the Goddess. It added to the impression that the difference between divine and mortal was too far away to be calculated by any units.
"Your chance has been used. Now it is my turn to strike back. Prepare yourselves, big heads." Elena opened her palm up with a smile and sparkling eyes.
She wanted to know what would happen if that Floating Fortress, along with those dwarves, were rotated at a rate of a thousand rotations per minute? Or, what if-...
Elena smirked at her own ruthless ideas. Elysia simply placed her hand on her face with an expression of disbelief.
"Hold on, Human Goddess! You are a glorious divinity. It is not splendor for you to avenge the mortals who attacked you under your permission."
"Yes, you will defame yourself if you retaliate against the mortals who only carry out your orders!"
"The-"
The other Dwarven Emperors started voicing out their defense. Their most significant attack failed without effect. They didn't want to receive a counterattack, divine punishment.
Unfortunately, Elena didn't want to hear any other nonsense. She went straight to cut off those dwarves' random rubbish regardless of the reasons.
"Absurd self-defense. Do you think I care about that nonsense? If I already had the intention, then that's what will happen. You were so confident before. Now, take the results of your clash with elves and fairies earlier. Sun Befall." Elena raised her hand slightly, then dropped it down.
The scorching artificial sun immediately fell toward the Floating Fortress like a meteor.
'They won't die from that mini sun, right?' Elysia only hoped that there would be no casualties. She didn't want Elena to become a mass murderer.
'The artificial sun is the result of their magic energy as well. If they did die, then it would come from their own attack. Half committed suicide. But! Take it easy, Ely. Since they seem confident, I'm sure they still have a way out.' Elena grasped her hand and watched the mini sun shot away at slow speed toward the dwarves. The golden halo behind her started spinning just because she wanted it to do so.
"Get in position! Prepare for the Disintegration Energy Field!" Nuraddir exclaimed and changed the Floating Fortress mode to defense.
Then, he maximized the output setting for an additional barrier around the Floating Fortress. "The sun is controlled by her. Evasion is impossible. Prepare for impact. Disintegration Energy Field activate!"
The spherical white energy barrier immediately enveloped the Floating Fortress. It was surging like electricity, ready to destroy the approaching sun.
*Bang!*
The mini sun collided with the energy field, and the soil below turned into red magma. Subsequently, the surrounding trees within several kilometers caught fire from the instantaneous heat.
The mini sun was stable due to Elena's magic. Still, it disintegrated and scattered into the surrounding area because of the energy field.
After that, the mini sun slowly shrank and finally disappeared like a fireball running out of fuel.
'...' Elena was at a loss for words and immediately checked Vanessa and the others down there. Well, they were still there, in layered protection and in good condition.
'Some of the residual energy is scattered into the surroundings. Disintegration Energy Field, hmm...' Elysia analyzed the dwarves' electro-magnetic barrier, which was used to disintegrate the elemental energy.
'Ely, let's pack this all up and finish this little show. Crush all the accursed monsters under the ground, then we can escape with the others. What do you think?' Elena asked for an opinion because she was already reluctant to stay there any longer.
'That sounds good, Sister Elena. We desperately need rest. Let's do that, but not before making these three armies retreat. A brief explanation can also help to settle things.' Elysia had absolutely no objections.
'All right.' Elena heaved a subtle sigh, then used wind and water magic to stop the fiery flames.
The mist of cold dew immediately enveloped the surrounding fire forest and extinguished the flames in an instant.
After that, Elena put her index and middle finger together. Then, pointed the Floating Fortress with that. "That's not bad. You negate a bunch of destructive energy with your technology. No wonder you are quite proud of yourself, big heads. However, that's all. Look carefully, how easy it is for me to destroy the source of your arrogance. I don't even need to use high-level divine magic for that."
"Wait-" Nuraddir took the opportunity to talk about something urgent.
Unfortunately, Elena simply ignored that and didn't give the Dwarven Emperor any chance to speak other nonsense. She used her magic to envelop the Floating Fortress with gravity magic.
"Spin." Elena moved her fingers to make a circular motion.
At the same time, the force of gravity suddenly increased rapidly and forced the Floating Fortress to spin.
It only took two seconds. The dwarves' ultimate weapon immediately spun like crazy to a speed of a thousand rotations per minute.
The dwarves could do nothing but get trapped in their own fort and spun until they couldn't think of anything else but the spinning world.
After one minute had passed, Elena moved her hand toward up, right, left, then gave a downward slamming motion.
*Bam!*
The Floating Fortress slammed hard onto the ground to follow Elena's movements. The blow made the ground and trees flung into the air, but it came back to rain down on the ruined fortress.
Nell's little group dumbfounded, but the elves and fairies also gaped in amazement.
Ashera and Yralissa thought for a moment. If they persisted in testing their ultimate weapon against the real divine beings, their fate wouldn't be that different from the dwarves. They were lucky enough to step down and didn't try to be arrogant anymore.
The difference between mortal and divine was that far. The Goddess of Light only used a small move to destroy the Floating Fortress.
The Goddess of Light didn't even use her partially formed golden halo that resembles a set of wings to strike back!
Perhaps, because those dwarves did not live up to her expectations? Or, those dwarves were too weak to be attacked with divine magic? Ashera, Yralissa, and those wise enough to understand shuddered about that thought.
A few moments later, the dwarves crawled out of the rubble with multiple cuts and crushed armor.
Those who tried to stand immediately staggered like drunken people. While several others immediately vomited a lot of rainbow liquid. All of them were extremely pale and looked pitiful.
'Ew, what did they eat at breakfast? They paint the earth with colors! Ely, I'm compassionate enough to let them out with just a small wound like that, right?' Elena turned slightly to the side. She didn't want to see the dwarves anymore.
'That's a good finishing blow, Sister Elena. I thought you were going to show them what a massive laser beam or the real supernova looks like.' Elysia smiled gently and shook her head slightly.
'Hehe, I had that intention earlier, but I didn't do that. We need to be careful with our imagination magic, Ely. Sometimes, I get scared of our own strength.' Elena chuckled playfully.
Meanwhile, the supreme leader of the dwarves had just finished vomiting out several liters of rainbow liquid. He looked up to see the Goddess with a hazy gaze. Even though his head was extremely dizzy, he could still tell that the Goddess was still in the midst of that golden glowing sky.
Nuraddir didn't need to consider anything else. The Dwarven Race only recognized those who were more potent or more knowledgeable. Not to mention, the Goddess purposely let them live. He could feel that there were no casualties on the dwarves' side.
For that reason, Nuraddir knelt on the ground and thrust his ax into the ground. "O, Human Goddess, the Almighty Goddess of heaven. You have made us aware of how weak we are. Our strength is nothing before you. No technology can match your will. You are the Human Goddess, but allow us dwarves to worship you as our Goddess!"
"Did you hit your head so hard or something? I am not a Goddess for you nor humans to worship. Look for another divine being for that troublesome matter." Elena raised her eyebrow a little. Then, she turned around and lowered her altitude onto the pitch-black ground, a place that was once the Tree of Life.
Even though the Goddess ignored him, Nuraddir was still there to kneel on the ground while saying many words of praise respectfully and sounding exaggerated. Right after that, several other dwarves also followed in the footsteps of their supreme leader.
Unfortunately, Elena didn't care about that. Or rather, she and Elysia tried not to listen to it. She just landed on the ground, then used her sacred vision and advanced perception to see deep into the ground.
It was clearly visible. About a thousand accursed monsters were digging their way out toward the surface.
'Ely, please help me to neutralize the energy curses. Just burn everything, don't use it to level up. We're mentally exhausted. Something unexpected can happen anytime.' Elena reminded Elysia of that vital point.
'En, leave the support role to me, Sister Elena. Burn curse energy.' Elysia nodded in understanding and immediately prepared herself for a surge of energy.
Hearing that, Elena shifted her legs slightly to the side, then stomped the ground in a leisurely motion.
