Chapter 1492: Evacuation
Chapter 1492: Evacuation
From the city that was occupied by the trio, all four carriers moved into four different directions. Night Ghost was the only one left behind and the rest of them are all gone.
The four carriers left in four directions.
The carriers looked they are large scale levitating aircraft carriers. They have large thrusting devices that kept the whole thing floating and there are multiple towers on the top surface of the carrier.
Inside the operating room, the team members that went to lead the destruction of the cities stayed along with the rest of the operators.
There are many people who are operating various parts of the carrier. One is the Navigation team, the other one is the Power Supply team, the last one is the weaponry team. They are constantly active.
There is a passive team, that is mostly focused on repairing any possible damages that could occur and assisting all the other three teams if needed.
The carrier came attracted a lot of attention as it hovered through the sky and went to that city.
By the time it came on top of that city, all of the city guards, lord of the city and other officials were alerted. Even the underground leaders and gangs were alerted by their subordinates.
All of them are even flying in the air on the beasts as they looked at the carrier halting on top of it.
"Whose doing is this? What is this thing? You are trespassing into the Mari clan's territory, you are not allowed to be here, leave immediately."
The city lord yelled on the top of his lungs. Five elemental king and Jwala looked at him through the screen. Five elemental king took a communication device and spoke into it.
"We are taking over the city. All of the residents and visitors are advised to leave. You can go to the city that is on the west side, a few hours away from here. But do not stay in this city. Anyone, who stays here within an hour is liable for their death.
We are not responsible for your lies."
Five elemental King's voice reverberated throughout the whole city. Everyone was stunned. Even though this is a cornerstone city under the Mari Clan's control, it is still city under Mari clan's control.
Not anyone could just come over here and say that they want to deal with the city. They are ordering the people here to completely evacuate the city.
"I don't care who you are and what made you grow the balls to offend the Mari clan like this, but I will tear through this thing and bring you out before killing you."
As he said that, he made his move.
He is an Astral Plane Initiation cultivator, he extended his hand forward to gather lightning at the end of it. He aimed it straight at the front of the carrier and lunged off of his beast to attack it.
Five elemental king walked to the weapon team and said.
"Activate elemental barrier and spatial restriction."
As soon as he said that, various spots on the carrier's surface on different sides started glowing.
A large barrier with various elemental energies started glowing. Along with that, there is a ripple of spatial energy that came out of the carrier restricting the movement of the city lord.
The city lord felt his speed getting reduced by a lot. He wasn't able to reach the target and his blow brushed past the barrier.
*BOOM*
An explosive sound came as the barrier rippled.
"Activate elemental cannon and the flight puppets."
Five elemental king, gave orders while the beast of the city lord caught him before he could fall.
The carrier made a large mechanical noise and a vent opened up on the bottom of it. A cylindrical cannon that is around fifteen meters long extended out of it.
After that, another vent opened up on the rear of the carrier with a bunch of puppets flying out of it.
They moved towards the people that gathered along with the city lord.
"Don't hold back. Just fire."
Five elemental king commanded.
"Element of choice, sir?"
The cannon operator asked.
"Fire. Let's go generic today."
The operator nodded and the cannon was fired. All the flight puppets also started glowing red as they shot energy beams at everyone.
The main cannon got fired on the city lord while the energy beams are targeting the rest of the entourage.
*BOOM*
The energy beam hit the city lord and enveloped him completely. The beam has around three meters in diameter and not only did it hit the City lord, it even went after the beast that is carrying him.
The beam went on for three seconds. The beast and the city lord fell down. Crashed into the ground in the city.
The puppets are also shooting them down one by one. The battle began. Of course, the puppets are not really strong enough to deal with these people in direct combat, but there the carrier is not there just for show.
"The deduction eye."
Five elemental king ordered again and the operator activated something.
A cylindrical barrel extended out of the nose of the carrier from which something that looked like an eyeball came out.
An extra glow appeared on a specific spot over the puppets' bodies.
The eyeball kept on moving and shining with various flashes.
The members of the city that tried to attack the puppets suddenly felt shocked. As one of them threw an attack on the puppet to take it down, even before they could launch the attack, the puppet moved from the trajectory and another puppet from the side attacked the attacker.
The energy beam shot diverted the attack and it fell on another opponent. The puppet was unscathed.
In another spot, a puppet that was in the line of an arrow suddenly stopped its thrust devices. It freely fell a bit down to dodge the arrow, before activating again.
Like this, as they barely took down three puppets, the rest are dodging and firing at them constantly.
Of course, the puppets are not landing extreme attacks, they are doing gradual damage. Accumulating it bit by bit.
When a puppet is out of charge, it went back into the vent it came from and it was replaced by another puppet completely.
The battle went on for hours, but by the end of it, the carrier flew over the air and all of the residents in the city except for the soldiers and officials of the Mari clan left the city.
They went to the city that is currently under the control of the trio.
The soldiers, officials and other clan members of the Mari clan are all gathered in the main mansion under the orders of the Five elemental king.
After they are all bundled together, the carrier flew over them and a large hole appeared on its bottom surface, showcasing a black crystal surface.
A black coloured beam was shot down. It covered the whole mansion. It penetrated through all of the solid walls and ceiling without any trouble and bathed all of the people and beasts inside with the black light.
A scanner opened up in the operator room on which Five elemental king is watching.
There are several humanoid and beast icons on the scanner indicating the locations and situations of cultivators and beasts within the mansion.
After all of the icons turned black. He nodded and the operator pressed a different button. A cylindrical pillar was shot out of the carrier which fell in the middle of the mansion's front yard.
The pillar emitted a black glow.
"This is easier than I thought. Just go and deactivate the space gates and we can get away from here."
Five elemental kings commanded and the carrier turned around as they travelled back to the first city.
In the same way, all of the other four cities are also cleared within a few hours and all four carriers arrived at the first city.
While they are battling and travelling, the trio busied themselves with a different plan.
They used the space gate in the city to send a person from within the city to inform the superior of the city lord they captured, about the situation the city is in.
After that, they cut off the space gates, not letting anyone come there through the space gates.
The four cities that are nearest to this city are also completely disconnected from their space gates. They are also empty now with no one there to present any information to any person that might arrive.
They waited until all of the carriers arrived.
Philip then called out their space gate expert and issued orders.
"Convert the existing space gates of this city to one-way space gates. Send every person to go where ever they want as long as you can send them.
Distribute all of the resources we got from the cities to them and apologize for the inconvenience. Do the same for the other people that arrive here from the four cities."
"But boss, there are tens of thousands of people in the city. It will take a lot of time."
"So? Just do it. We don't have anything to do until tomorrow. Before superiors arrive here, tell them, they need to evacuate this place. If they take the space gate route, it is good, if they don't, tell them they are liable for their own lives."
