Chapter 401 - War in the Prison World

"What the hell is this?!"

"Is this something that a human could do?!"​​

Everybody was in disbelief at this scene. Floating gigantic rocks that could destroy a city was in front of them.

This was one of the reasons why people banned a tier 3 spell in a sub-world as it could potentially destroy everything. Also, the [Gravitational Ball] spell wasn't an offensive spell.

A [Bestrou] of a third evolution monster was still stronger if they compared its firepower. The only difference was that [Bestrou] wasn't a wide-range attack nor it has other uses except for attacking. The scale of [Bestrou] was small but everything inside it was disintegrated.

Well, [Bestrou] could easily destroy these rocks that weren't enhanced by high-density mana.

Souta's control over his energy wasn't that great. Controlling best feram was harder than controlling mana because of its wild nature.

That's why...

[Thread Forming]!

Strings of red threads came out of his hand and it stuck on the lower part of a 300-meter huge boulder.

"Let's try this..."

Swoosh!

"F.u.c.k! Fire! Quickly fire the cannons and destroy those boulders!"

The generals said hurriedly when they saw Souta threw one of the boulders at them.

Everyone snapped out when they heard the voices of their generals. They quickly followed the commands and started firing the cannons.

Boom! Boom!

Before the boulder could reach the sh.i.p.s, the sh.i.p.s fired countless white beams at it.

Several explosions occurred on the boulder as it received the attacks of the sh.i.p.s. Cracks filled its surface as it started to collapse. It couldn't handle the attacks of the sh.i.p.s at all.

The fleet of the empire started to attack the other boulders of rocks too as they feared that Souta would throw it at them.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

But Souta wouldn't let them destroy the prison easily. He opened his palm as he released his control over ten boulders and created a gravity field around the whole prison.

Ohm!

Then, several red threads flew out of his hands and he threw the rest of the boulders one by one.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

"Destroy it! That's huge so you can easily hit it! Aim properly! Don't waste energy!"

General Asimon said in a loud voice while gritting his teeth.

The ground troops of the empire could only watch what's happening in horror. They couldn't do anything at all except for firing low-level spells that they knew. Also, only a few of them knew spells, and not all people that knew spells learned offensive spells. Some of them only learned buff spells or healing spells.

The person-in-command of the ground troops looked at his subordinates and said, "Prepare the cannon. This is not a melee battle. It's a long-range battle. We'll do everything to provide help to the sh.i.p.s. Just imagine that we're only fighting dragons."

Bang!

But the problem was the boulder. It collapsed and ten-meter huge rocks fell down on the ground troops.

Bang! Bang!

It directly killed some of the soldiers on the ground who didn't manage to escape on time.

"I'm still not done."

Souta said as the boulders of rocks flew above the sh.i.p.s and he dismissed his control over the rocks.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The boulders of rocks started to fall as the sh.i.p.s move back to avoid it while firing their cannons. Their assault was non-stop as they kept firing every time they finished charging their cannons with energy.

Souta retrieving the power of gravity that was controlling the boulders of rocks, he focused it on the Catastrophe rank prison.

Swoosh!

"You will not get away from me."

He flew towards the retreating sh.i.p.s and red threads spread out and stuck on the barrier of the sh.i.p.s. While he was flying, the prison was following him from behind with intention of colliding with the fleet of the empire.

General Asimov and General Albert narrowed their eyes when they saw spider webs slowly enveloped their barrier. It was blocking their vision and it was a problem.

"We need to stop him personally..."

General Albert said as he turned around and his parasitic armor covered his body. The rest of the commanders followed him leaving only General Albert in the strategic room.

"Fighting someone at this level is really problematic."

He said and he assigned one of his capable subordinates to command the fleet before he left the room. He was going to fight too as he knew that every strength was needed in fighting an opponent at this level.

...

Souta tried to pull the sh.i.p.s but he didn't have enough strength to do it. Although he was strong, the weight of one ship already surpassed one hundred thousand tons. And there were more than thirty sh.i.p.s here.

'I overestimate myself for a second.' He thought as he smiled wryly. If he had the help of the [Gravitational Ball] spell, then he could probably do it.

His physical strength wasn't that high for him to be able to carry several hundred thousand tons. Even if he powered up his body using his energy, he would only be able to pull out three to five sh.i.p.s.

It was a different matter if he used [Gravitational Ball] spell. But his spell was focused on the Catastrophe rank prison.

Swoosh!

'Yuko, destroy some sh.i.p.s...' Souta said to Yuko. They were connected to each other so Souta could talk to her telepathy.

At this time, he saw the higher-ups of the army came out of the ship to stop him. Of course, the sh.i.p.s didn't stop firing their cannons and Souta didn't stop the prison too.

Swoosh!

A red ray of energy flew out of the prison and it destroyed a whole Mother Ship in an instant.

Boom!

The barrier of the ship was like a fragile glass. Everyone who was inside it died just like that.

This was Yuko's [Bestrou]. A powerful attack of monsters using a large concentration of best feram.

Souta smiled as he looked at the generals and commanders of the empire. The prison passed beside him and crashed on the sh.i.p.s that couldn't escape on time.

Boom! Boom!

Several explosions sounded across the sky as the prison collided with the group of sh.i.p.s. A powerful shockwave swept out in the whole area and even the ground troops felt the aftershocks of the explosion.

General Asimon and General Albert charged at Souta. The commanders followed the two from behind.

"Let's go! We'll kill him this time no matter what happened!"

Blades sprouted out of their hands and it turned into weapons. No, the parasitic armor fused with their weapons to make it stronger and sharper.

"You're going to fight me..."

Souta smirked as he pulled out the vajra sword.

BOOOMMM!!!

Shockwaves burst out of the field and it pushed everything around them. Exactly thirty-nine B-rank powerhouses were currently fighting Souta. Also, these weren't ordinary B-rank as they had parasitic essence eaters that could boost their strength to a higher level.

The only downside was that their skills and spells were low-grade.

One kilometer away from the battlefield...

The army of the wardens finally arrived at the scene. They could see the battle has already started and judging from the energy fluctuations, it wasn't an ordinary battle. They were staking their lives in this battle.

They were surprised for a moment when they saw the flying prison but then they immediately regain their senses. They quickly increased their flying speed to provide help to their allies.

It seems that the opponent this time wasn't ordinary. All twelve wardens had a grave looked on their faces. Just how powerful was their opponent for them to fight the army of the Great Astley Empire.

The arrival of the wardens was noticed by the fleet of the empire and Souta.

"Hmm...? Reinforcement... The difficulty is getting higher."

Souta muttered as he moved his body upward to avoid the sword attack of the commanders.

"But it's not a problem for me..."

Thick and dense energy burst out of his body and it pushed the generals and commanders away from him.

Boom!

[Night Overlord's Aura], [Shadow Cloak], [Cat's Speed], [Triple Muscle Strengthening], [Agility Boost], and [Strength Boost] were activated at the same time.

The added stats of these skills were higher compared to last time before he evolved. His power exploded and everyone felt the intense energy around him.

"I will not hold back anymore. At this moment, everything is simply a massacre."
