Chapter 80 coming battle
Chapter 80
Nea pov.
Walking through the busy streets or so it should be happening, everything is empty, the streets only have the typical steppicursor(desert tumbleweed), the wind that is noticeable now that there is no one and one or another person who goes quickly home.
"where are all the people!"
Letting out an internal scream he looked to the sides to see if it's just here, but no, the side streets are even worse, they look like abandoned lands due to the silence there.
Seeing that my search leads nowhere, I simply start moving towards the inn where we stayed with Andrey, after about 10 minutes arrived to the place, which is in the same situation as the whole town previously seen.
"Andrey I arrived!!!"
Letting out a voice like that one you see in cartoons I open the door to the room with a quick bang, as the door opens what greets me is Andrey who in his left hand holds a book and in his right a glass vial with a silver-green colored liquid.
"I'm happy enough not to say anything."
"oh, come on at least when you say those words let out a smile or something."
Noticing my entrance into the room, Andrey answers me as he twirls the vial in his hand making the two substances move though they never merge, they were like water and oil, past that he looked up to his face which despite saying he's happy he still has his poker face on.
"ummm... better not, now leaving that aside it's time to rest, we're done with what we came here to do."
"I guess there is a long way to go."
Bringing his hand under his chin he makes as if thinking about my proposal smiling before simply saying no, this shows that he is certainly in a good mood, finishing those words he moves towards one of the beds and throws himself on it before saying it's time for a rest, which the truth is I need and badly.
"Whoever gets up first must call the other, for more security I will place a clock a few hours in the future."
"what was all that sophisticated language, you could have just said that you have set a clock for a certain time."
Listening to his strange explanation about setting a clock, he took the opportunity to fuck with him, come on, this guy has a serious problem with explanations.
"Just shut up and go to sleep, there are things to do later."
With his words Andrey stops talking, knowing he's not going to listen to me anymore, taking that as a sign I simply lay down on the other bed and close my eyes to sleep.
[trying to establish connection]
[irregularities have been detected in the <Destination> permission]
[failed connection, looking for possible solutions]
Notifications pop into my view despite having my eyelids closed, knowing this is going nowhere, I close them all and finally fall into a deep sleep.
??? Some time later.
"Up, up, up, just slap it?"
Sensing danger to my dignity, I make a quick turn to the right, narrowly avoiding a hand or maybe just imagining it?
"What's wrong with you! Nobody picks another person up by slapping them, well, unless they're a very deep sleeper!"
"I've gotten up, had breakfast, bought the materials for the upcoming trip, all while you were sleeping and even tried to lift you by moving sideways, why do you think you're so close to the edge of the bed?"
Looking up at him from the floor of the room I ask him for an explanation, which he answers quickly and certainly with a very good reason I have to admit, with all said I quickly get up from the floor and we start all the daily routine or at least I did, Andrey already had breakfast, got dressed and all that.
??? Minutes later.
The sound of the river can be heard next to us as we pass by it on our way to another one of Andrey's objects, by the way this terracotta bulls thing went pretty well, I guess I will have to get other mounts later on.
"I don't know what you're thinking, but just NO!"
"Ha ha ha ha, how could you think I would be planning anything, I'm totally good."
Ignoring the piercing gaze of Andrey who is looking at me as if he wants to analyze me from head to toe, I started laughing awkwardly before saying a few words towards him, though they are obviously to keep my pokemon trainer symptom in check.
"Now only our last destination remains and the most dangerous on my list, this is the temple of Phalanx a place where certain beasts reside."
"I don't like the sound of this anymore"
His words are tinged with a certain uncertainty that is noticeable in his always cold and certain tone, continuing on our way we arrive at the place where he was fishing last time.
"Damn fish..."
"what's with all that anger?"
"The other time I was fishing around these parts, if the time you kicked me out of the room, however he very, or it must be a joke."
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom*
A few explosions shake the surrounding sands, sending everything near them into the air, followed by that four trails of light come out of each zone and join together making a three dimensional cube or so I think, to finish all the faces of the cube start to take a dark color blocking all the sunlight although it is still perfectly visible.
[a barrier has been entered]
[the rules of the previous zone have been disabled].
"<aiming shot>" "<Hwacha of darkness>".
With a few words coming from some nearby dunes, the heads of our terracotta beasts are shattered and followed by that more than 50 small projectiles of darkness land on our heads now that we are on the ground.
"<earth magic:earth dome>"
"playing with darkness to me! <dark control:dark spears>
Andrey quickly approaches towards me before launching an earth dome, taking advantage of the dome closing over us he created multiple small spears to intercept the enemy's shots.
*Boom* *Boom*.
"where did these come from!"
"I'm in the same situation as you, although I have a little idea who they are, <earth magic:earth spikes>"
Even with all the explosions many shots of darkness from our enemies reached us making the dome shake, Ignoring that Andrey waits until they are done before he hits the ground with his foot making the dome grow stalagmites and followed by that he blows it outwards.
