Chapter 83: An Evolution  

Ping... Ping... Ping...

Their shots were blocked by the Oak’s giant shields who suffered a few dents for each and every explosion that they would throw.

The Oaks helped each other off to block their attacks as much as they could but it wasn’t long before their defense began to shatter. The humans had started to break through so they had no choice but to return the favor..

“They don’t seem to be too affected,” DalJeon said as he watched them from afar.

The 30mm machine gun was very big and strong. A direct hit from it could completely destroy dozens of them at once, however, the Oaks had layers and layers of iron over their armor that reduced most of its impact.

It shocked Jaehwang too. They weren’t even strong enough to give him a challenge during the last time they fought.

“The Oaks are using magic... It’s very strong. This is going to be difficult...”DalJeon as he watched them cast some spells. He then saw a different one; It had horns sticking out of its head and it carried a giant stick on its back which it raised to the sky before the other oaks marched forward. “It’s the Oak leader...”

“The Oak leader?” Jaehwang replied with a confused tone.

“An Oak leader possesses some high ranked magical skills which are very rare. It has a limitless range of magical abilities which makes it very powerful,” DalJeon explained.

The oaks seemed prepared and it was like they had someone on their side coaching them. But it wasn’t like the soldier of Justin point weren’t ready as well.

Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!

They continued to press on with their 30mm machine gun. Flames were everywhere and the Oak’s shields blew up in blue light as they tried to block them.

The Oaks started to have a hard time blocking and they were forced to take a step back. The machine gun ran on energy so the high-angle weapon affected the monsters more. It was enough to break through their shields to attack them directly. The range of their machine gun could possibly reach all of them but that would dangerous on their side as well. Using it at full power would bring them a risk equal to the advantage it could bring.

Whoosh...

They wanted to decrease their output so they kept their shots low to avoid hitting the drones hovering in the air and despite that, the swarm of Oak soldiers within the distance were getting gunned down. They were aware of the drones above them but they can do so little with their short ranged arrows.

They kept focusing on the drones even though their arrows would always come back down. The drones in the sky then dropped a couple of black capsules which opened before it hit the ground.

Pong! Pong!

They weren’t explosives, they just harmlessly exploded as they fell from the air which covered the Oaks in a cloud of dense gray smoke.

The Oaks dropped their weapons and held onto their throats. White foam started to leak out from their mouths and that white foam then turned into blood. The capsule that launched from the drones was a chemical weapon.

The white smoke continued to cover the area where the Oaks were but none of them were ready to give up. They were trained on how to handle a situation like this.

“Darn it... Of course, the humans have effective weapons in this fight...”

Breathing it in made them bleed and feel dizzy, a lot of them tried to cover their mouths and noses with their arms but it was no use.

One of the giant strong Oaks then fell to the ground.

“It’s getting really difficult but they shouldn’t get too happy yet.” A rough ominous voice then echoed through all that gunfire.

“Why?” Another one replied.

“This isn’t a victory worth celebrating for them... and we’ll just get angrier.” The Oak leader said and the other shook its head. The fight was far from over, they were all still in pain but they cleared their throats and got ahold of themselves.

“Foolish humans, that’s good news for us. They are our prey. Prepare all of the Oaks. It’s time to fight.”

“Yes, sir.”

He turned and looked around the other Okas who wore heavy but sturdy armor. The leader wore a big crown on his head and a fancy attire that sets him out of the rest.

One of the other Oaks approached the leader, it sat next to it and said, “Leader, it is time.”

“Yes. It’s time.” He replied.

The ones on his right who shared the same fancy attire gave him a polite greeting before they raised their sticks high in the air. They let out a shout as a signal for their attack and they then started to glow with a green light.

Deuk deuk deuk deuk deuk!

The Oaks that were in charge of the war drums resumed their beats, making the whole situation more tense as it should be.

The green light gradually covered the Oaks and the color of their eyes started to change. They marched forward, hitting the ends of their weapons to the beat of the drum along with their bestial screams. A blue light then began to show up all around them.

“They’re... They are rushing in even though we’re going to capture them.”

DalJeon gave a strange look to those remaining Oaks. They were monsters but they seemed to be feeling nauseated. They started to fall down to the ground but they aren’t dead and they are still clearly breathing.

But he knew that they wouldn’t stay down for long, the Oaks were much stronger than they were. They couldn’t relax, they had to focus and keep their guard up at all times.

“What’s going on?” He then saw something unusual through the binoculars.

The blue light that surrounded them looked like a raindrop falling into a giant lake. It was massive but they weren’t surprised at what they saw. The Oaks shrieked by the beat of the drum and their muscles would grow more defined.

“Th-..there!”

It was something that they could recognize after staying in Justin point for ten years.The Oaks were using magic. It was incredible and what worried them the most was that it was their first time seeing magic this strong.

The Oaks then shrieked again. It was complete chaos.

“We need more power!”

Deudeudeudeu

The Oaks then started raging towards Justin point.

Whoosh...

But those in Justin point didn’t just sit by, the redied their weapons and prepared to fire.

Kwang kwang kwang!!!

The Oaks continued on forward ready to take on whatever the soldiers could give. They were instantly piled on the entire mountain. Justin point then weren’t the only ones attacking.

Whoosh...

Justin point then launched dozens of missiles. The missile was launched as one but it broke into pieces midflight and gave birth to other smaller projectiles aimed towards the Oaks on the ground.

Whooosh...

They started to land one by one and it caused a fire that made the battlefield look like a complete hell.

Hundreds of Oaks were getting burned but that was all. It handled a lot of them but more Oaks just came out and replaced them making their wave even stronger than before. They still had that green glow in their eyes.

The Oaks started to get even closer to the Justin point barrier. Three kilometers soon turned into two. They tried to focus their firepower but there were just so many of them.

“If it continues on like this then our defenses will collapse.” They looked at the wave of Oaks charging towards the Justin point barrier and DalJeon, who was holding the camera, suddenly just sat down. He then looked at Jaehwang and said, “Why are they doing this?!”

-That?

-Yeah.

-What are you doing?

-Resonating my energy...

-Resonating?

There was a lot going on at the moment but Jaehwang was too busy and had no time to worry about it. A little while ago they were dealing with the aftermath of the Oaks magic. Jaehwang wasn’t doing anything to help with it.

He had a problem with the flow of his energy. He didn’t know about the others but his energy affected him much more than they would affect a usual hunter. After the green energy grew like a flower, it spread throughout their army before it then gathered into a circle before spreading around once more, it went on until it formed a green giant circle. Although the Oaks were behind that power, no one could deny that it was beautiful.

Jaehwang was then able for figure out exactly what was going on.

[Success in understanding the attack after witnessing the high level of energy flow...]

[Understanding complete...]

[With the realization of the energy resonation, your own energy has increased by ten ranks.]

[Energy- 1 Rank, 0 percent]

-Overall energy + 500

-Resurrection energy + 20

-Consciousness: + 2

Pang!

Jaehwang’s mind suddenly turned blank.

He witnessed its resonation and the energy inside him started to fluctuate the moment he lifted it. With it’s power, he began to realize hundreds and millions of facts and information about the energies around him.

He took the next step and finished preparing. He then started to transmit it into his real self. The world’s memories that were buried into the ground were then found in perfect condition as they gathered in front of Jaehwang. A new energy was then stored into him and he finally took his first breath since then.

Whoosh...

Jaehwang’s true feelings flew into him through the air. The winds eventually stopped and Jaehwang’s eyes burst open, he realized what had happened the moment he got up, all of that made him complete.

An Evolution, The end.
