Re:Immortal

Chapter 110

The trio continued without looking back as they hoped to come across any survivors of the 'Immortal'. The trail of dead bodies slowly thinned out before none were left.

"We should be getting closer." Said Omis.

"Are you okay master?" Anxiously asked Lu Lu, while throwing his already regrown arm a worried look.

Nodding, Omis replied.

"Yes, don't worry too much child." He smiled. His robe was already in tatters, missing its entire right sleeve, yet he had no time to worry about it, they had to put as much distance between them and that glowing figure.

Glancing at the little alchemist, Omis's expression was grave as his mind constantly spun. Dina was not suited for battle, if anything she would only serve as a deadweight if a fight was to ensue.

Lu Lu on the other hand was more useful since she was the least affected by the glowing figure. Turning to look at his disciple, Omis sent her a divine message.

'Lu Lu, I need you to look after Dina. I can't worry about both of you if a fight was to breakout.'

Surprised, Lu Lu quickly regained her bearings before swiftly replying with her own divine message.

'Understood, master.'

********

The battlefield lay quiet, for it was now a graveyard of the unburied. It was all dust and dirt, though the ground glistened as rain had fallen, the liquid that shone wasn't clear but red.

The battlefield that day saw fathers and mothers fighting to their last breath and the army of 'hunters' wielding their weapons and raining down spells without mercy.

The wounded and dead lay thickly over the deserted ground, garish scarlet flowing over the blackish soil.

Tizzy stood in the middle of the carnage, his armor caked in blood, whose? Even he didn't know for sure, some his, some was his enemies, and some was his allies.

'The Hunters' had come without a warning, they attacked the city with an army with numbers he had never seen before, they rained down spells upon the city formation before breaking their defenses with savage suicidal attacks, having no regards to their own lives whatsoever.

Standing in the middle of a now silent battlefield, Tizzy's emotions were a mess as he raised his head to gaze at the 'underworld' ceiling. The city had fallen, that final attack from that figure was enough to completely obliterate it out of the face of the plane.

He managed to save as many civilians as possible, together with his 'underworld knights', and ordered a retreat from the city, where to? He didn't know, the most important part was to get them away from the attack range.

They survived, not all of them, but they did. The bastards didn't let them go though, the figure that brought that attack down on the city ordered its men to follow after them, it never made a move itself but simply ordered the fanatic army to give chase while it stood there watching over everything, a golden glow surrounding it.

As Tizzy ordered a retreat, various numbers of people died along the way, all casualties having cultivation levels between Ascension and Profound Immortal and being 'Originals' their cause of death appeared to be the golden light shining from the distance.

It did not appear to affect anyone other than 'Originals' and being above the Profound Immortal level gave one the ability to somewhat resist, yet anyone below that seemed to turn crazy as their cultivation base grew out of control, causing the affected people to scream in pain as they dug their own eyes out with a crazed expression.

This caused their casualties to grow even larger, as Tizzy ordered all 'Originals' between the Ascension and Profound Immortal level to retreat to a pocket dimension treasure Eva held, which cause a big dent in their strength. Thinking about that, and how the golden glow that was present all along suddenly went missing caused Tizzy to feel anxious, he didn't know what happened.

It was then that a beautiful silver head lady walked to his side, her flawless face seemed to be out of place in such a gory battlefield, yet the twin sabers held in her hands seemed to say otherwise as they still dripped of blood.

Tizzy spoke without turning to face her.

"Eva, what's the report?" He spoke, his voice tired.

"I'm sorry sir, Muriel has indeed betrayed us and ran away." Said Eva, her emotionless eyes blazing with rage for a second before she regained her composure.

Hearing what she said, Tizzy let out a long sigh his face looking as if he had aged ten years in that second before asking.

"The casualties?"

"I'm afraid 'The underworld knights' are almost completely wiped out. We only have about one hundred survivors left. Li is in critical condition and needs time to recover from his wounds, we did manage to avoid civilian losses, but our army has suffered a serious blow, sir." Solemnly reported Eva with a shake of her head.

"The knight's purpose was to serve the people, a duty they have all completed diligently. Get the survivors to gather our fallen brothers, we will give them an appropriate burial once we get past this calamity." Ordered Tizzy.

"Understood, what's our next move, sir?" Asked Eva as she flicked her twin sabers causing the blood to splash on the ground.

"Would you like me to hunt down the traitor?" She asked.

"No, we can't have one of our God realm cultivators away at the moment, Muriel's matter can wait, for now, she doesn't seem to have been on the 'Hunters' side which leaves out 'the Hive'. For her to break her cover so suddenly could only mean that things are not going so smoothly in the heavenly realm either. My guess is that she has been recalled to join the battle over there." Said Tizzy as he rubbed his tired eyes.

"Where's Ron? I could really use one of his liquor bottles."

Lowering her head, Eva shook her head, a rare sad expression taking over her face. Seeing that, Tizzy's eyes widened for a second as his God realm cultivation base surged out before he hurriedly brought it under control, and calmed down his emotions. Taking a deep breath he spoke.

"This is not the time to mourn for our fallen, for now, we have to first survive."
