Back at the present ti, I looked at the bodies lying on the ground but I couldn't feel anything. I thought killing those who destroyed my city would cause my heart to feel sothing. However, I couldn't sense anything, only a deep void.
"McKenzie?"
I heard Apollo's voice when I looked back, I saw one hundred him making shocked.
"I will never get used to this"
I could only say.
"Mckenzie"
I heard a voice making shift my vision.
"I saw him"
The person in front of was strangely similar to the boy whom I ran away with though his features are much older.
"Blair which place did you see him?"
I asked and suddenly a wave of rage seeped through my body.
"There at the largest building, I saw him run there"
"Ah, looks like it's heavily guarded"
"Don't worry I can break it"
Apollo confidently said before fifty of him dashed forward.
"Mackenzie"
"Yes?"
"Let's not make an enemy out of him"
Blair could only nod his head clearly understanding what his friend ant.
The eleventh temple was heavily guarded with shields, and the mighty strength of paladins and the gospels of priests.
However, fifty Apollos rush forward turning into human lightning.
"Thunder aura"
The temperature began to soar high while the ground lted. White pure light dances while a series of thunder echoes.
And from the vast amount of electricity a dragon was ford.
Crafted from the bolts of lightning, the dragon's body crackles with energy. Its form creates a crazy yet fluid figure, with arcs of electricity pulsating along its wings and razor-sharp talons. As it moves the people behind the barrier beco scarred.
"Lightning Dragon"
The colorful barrier ets the might of a dragon and to the horror of those priests, the shield begins to lt away.
And that's when the real fight began.
[Notification Alert!
A unison of gospel is about to be cast
Proceed to cancel it?]
Jeremiah's capacity had long gone increased due to Apollo insisting on a system upgrade. And now he can do more other than spell jamming.
By analyzing an incoming spell you can send an equivalent amount of mana to cancel the casting process. It might sound easy but analyzing a spell you just saw is too hard to do. From morizing data to interfering with the process of casting will need talent and strength. For Jeremiah that is all under his capabilities.
"Hear my command!"
The priest began to visualize the spell while using their mana and faith to strengthen the spell.
"Hoy book bless us the gospel of light!
One that shall wash the evil away!"
One hundred priests began to be bathed with light as the spell began to take effect.
"A different type of chant"
The boy just thought before ordering "Break it"
The gospel that is about to be cast broke down, and the holy book shattered like dust while a hundred priests fell on the ground. Jeremiah overloaded their mana causing the spell to backfire, this imdiately killed them. So priest have weak bodies thus such a backfire caused their life.
[Notification Alert!
One hundred n are recorded dead!
Total kill tally: 500
Remaining enemies: 2400]
"They are still many"
The boy thought while commanding an army of chanized soldiers.
Lasers and cannons were imdiately taken out before continuously shooting.
"SHAAA!"
The shield finally lted away causing the dragon to break in.
"Form a guard now!"
Paladins move while the priest remains at the back.
Apollo remains standing thinking why the archbishop and other bishops refrain from making an appearance.
"Jeremiah scan the area"
[Affirmative!]
"McKenzie, which one is the one you are looking for?"
The boy asked despite looking more like a demon than a human boy.
"He must be inside Apollo"
His friend rely told him.
It was okay since there was no way they could escape.
The entire temple has been locked by Apollo, no one shall leave without coming through him first.
[Notification Alert!
A soldier has been destroyed!
Current total amount: 1999]
"Soone actually destroyed them I am impressed"
The temple was built shaped like a sphere so all Apollo did was surround them from all directions, seizing their chance to escape.
This set-up saves him a lot of ti.
"I bet they are regretting making such a design"
The design made it easy for Apollo to secure all routes at the sa ti acquire fast scanning.
The priests tried to cast a gospel only to be cancelled by Jeremiah while the paladins got roasted alive by the raging lightning dragon.
Bodies pile up and the boy could feel a presence that is strangely familiar to him.
[Notification Alert!
The Archbishops and bishop are coming!
Bishop quantity: 5
Archbishop quantity: 1
Rank Celestial]
"Now that is problematic"
Then it happened so fast, that a wave of energy turned into the spell and annihilated all chanized soldiers.
"What the!"
"It can't not be!"
Mckenzie and Blair exclaid, witnessing how all the soldiers all destroyed.
"That was close"
By the side of the two are five Apollo, all have a barrier that surrounds them.
[Apologies Creator I wasn't able to sense that]
"That is fine, I wasn't expecting it either"
Despite losing his army the boy wasn't the least concerned instead his smile widened. Because he was still active, the gospel didn't work on him. Originally it was a spell that would eliminate all enemies. Apollo read it on one of the stolen files he got from the temple so he knows about it.
"Rewind" he rely said.
A command was given and to everyone's horror, all the destroyed soldiers began to pull back to each other. A force began to bring every piece together until the soldiers ca back, finally returning to their previous state.
"That was!?"
The enemies exclaim not expecting such a thing to happen.
"Ablaze!"
While the army of 1999 chanized soldiers fought the outer lower echelon, despite being low in strength their numbers were imnse.
The one hundred Apollo on the other hand was with Blair and Mckenzie taking on the upper echelons.
"Argh!"
"Hold them on!"
The fifty Apollo took care of the one thousand high priests and high-ranking paladins while the other fifty took care of the archbishop and the remaining bishops.
"What kind of monster is this!"
The command Ablaze made the enemies feel like they were being burned alive. This sensation soon turned to reality when they began to burst into flas.
"Argh!"
"Put it out!"
"I can't water doesn't work on it!"
Blair and Mckenzie looked at each other, there was only a single thought on them.
"Holy flas?"
Golden sacred flas burst forth burning everyone it touches.
"Holy book of light appear before !"
Yet another gospel was being cast.
"Jeremiah"
[This one is too complicated to be analyzed I won't be able to cancel it]
The boy understood it was a gospel from a Celestial, however, how co he still couldn't feel the pressure of facing one?
"Being way too quiet is making wary" he thought before casting another spell.
Then the clash of the gospel of Nirvana and Apollo's spell happened.
His two friends were imdiately clad in a barrier because five Apollos fell back to protect them.
A white lightning rose while a white sword appeared and those two entities clashed forward.
A burst of energy wiped out the entire area making Apollo realise why the archbishop was staying quiet. His power was too destructive. The entire temple was destroyed with its inhabitants included. In short, he killed his own allies.
While they clash happened spirits begin to defend Apollo.
It was the spirits of all mages inside the tower, their appearance made the boy surprised.
It was then Apollo saw in his stats that his bloodline was activating, the blood of the summoner.
The blood of the summoner is just a term used by scholars, to address the mysterious bloodline that made a certain family famous, the Lancaster family.
They were the first to create a new branch of study that crafted the possibility of contracting spirits, by combining all the elents in a single magic, summoning was then realized.
Lennon Lancaster was the mage who made the magic of summoning along with his wife Leticia Lancaster.
And to everyone's horror and marvel the Lancaster family was capable of forming an infinite amount of contracts. No limitations regardless of the rank of spirits and the level of a mage's mana. As long as they get the spirit's recognition a contract can be achieved.
"What is this?"
The voice spoke a hint of sarcasm can be heard from his voice.
"A child of Lennon is here"
"Who?"
"Nothing, I am Eleven the archbishop of this temple"
This ti a pressure had enclosed the area making Blair and Mckenzie suffocate.
[Creator there are still a couple of enemies hiding underneath the temple]
"A secret passage?"
[Perhaps]
"Blair, Mckenzie they are still enemies left, do you want to run after them?"
The two looked at each other before nodding.
"Yeah we will"
Apollo felt satisfied with their answer and with a wave of his hand, his two friends disappeared along with five of him.
"There, no more distraction, shall we"
He said while summoning a spear.
