Ancient God in the Modern World

Chapter 53 - C53 Clash

Allen's eyes widened as he did not think of Thomas and Drew's combination. And, as he looked at the both of them, Allen shook his head inwardly as he was not sure if he was held back by his past or was just too self-centered, he failed to see from a different perspective.

Indeed, what Drew and Thomas did was somewhat futile but, there is a big difference if he's the one doing it.

With that in mind, Allen did a series of hand seals that are more complicated and more profound, and unlike the two's, Allen's are supported by divine energy.

*whoosh*

Allen's divine energy flowed out from the divine marks into him. Then, he used them as he did the hand seals.

Allen's harnessing of divine energy as smooth as what he was doing could be considered as part of his authority.

Death's Protection became more efficient due to Allen's hand seals. The protection that it offered became better.

But, still, Allen was not content. After all, as long as he did not clear the 'demonic clouds,' his existence would be threatened.

After hesitating for a while, Allen temporarily stopped the hand seal as he had decided to pour out most of his divine energy and shot them towards the clouds while he kept some to support the divine formation as well as the hand seals.

*whoosh*

The divine energy that he shot counter devoured the demonic energy just as if they were positive and negative energies.

The demonic clouds were becoming thinner as time passed by and likewise, Allen's divine energy was also being consumed at a fast pace.

From afar, it was as if heaven and earth were clashing. Allen, as the earth and the demonic cloud as the heaven.

Beasts and demonic beasts alike left the vicinity of the battlefield in fear that they will be caught out. But, they did not go far away because their instincts were telling them that there would be something good after the clash.

*HONG*

Thunderclaps could be heard and flashes of lights could be seen amidst the clouds. The view looked magnificent. It was akin to fireworks amidst the clouds.

The astounding view attracted the humans from Base 300. The confident ones rushed over to try their luck as they speculated that there must be treasure within. While the others stayed inside the base and spectated the astounding view from the windows of their flats.

The view could be said to be 'very amazing' as there is even a man amidst the cloud riding a military hovercraft while watching from its back door.

But at a second glance, it could be said that the man was not enjoying the view. Rather, he seemed to be annoyed, and scared, at the same time.

He was the one who released the demonic cloud. But, he did not own it. He was the subordinate that a general from Base 300 sent to eradicate Allen.

His face was gloomy as he saw that the cloud was getting thinner. The demonic cloud was meticulously gathered by his boss from the demonic energy that the front lines had. Supposedly, it should only be used during an emergency, and if it was used, a sure kill should be guaranteed. But, what's happening is contrary to what he likes. He was not sure if he could eradicate the Divine Spirit.

"Tsk. Fire it," the man said as he pushed a button to shut the backdoor of the hovercraft. Then, he sat inside and waited for the sound that he was expecting.

*phft* *phft* *phft* 

The pilot of the hovercraft pushed buttons and shot the missiles that the hovercraft carriers. Then, after a few moments, three loud explosions could be heard.

The general's subordinate intended to bomb Allen. And although he knew that this would not kill a 'divine Spirit,' there could still be losses especially if the followers of the Divine Spirit was caught by the explosion and died.

But contrary to his expectation, Allen did not even need to lift a finger because the Death's Protection is still active. It blocked the explosion and the shockwave from reaching Allen and the two.

And as a result, the formation started to collapse because of the pressure from the diminishing demonic clouds. Then, due the explosion of the three missiles.

*rumble!*

A rumbling sound could be heard as the formation collapsed. Meanwhile, Allen did not have a spare moment to fix nor create another formation as such. He was busy shooting divine energy to the demonic clouds.

But, fortunately, the divine marks have a mind of their own. Channeling divine energy was not too much of a hassle for them, especially the divine marks that were on Thomas and Drew because they were too near to Allen.

The divine marks created a small-scale formation that 'somehow' eased the pressure from the three of them.

As Allen was doing what he needed to do, Thomas sank from his shadows along with Drew. Allen did not stop them as he knew the effect of the demonic energy would be too much for them to bear.

But, unknowingly, Thomas's faithfulness did not bring them to safety. Instead, he connected to the shadow in the air that was speeding away from them. Then, he and Drew rose from the shadows inside the hovercraft. 

The seemingly easy action almost depleted Thomas of all his spiritual energy. But despite that, he did not worry as he was not stripped off of all his fighting capabilities. In fact, he was not even using his ability in battle. He uses his ability mainly for support as well as for fleeing.

Ever since he learned of the way to use the faith energy, he concentrated on studying it and set aside his ability, solely, for fleeing.

Meanwhile, the subordinate of the general has fine senses as he was just below the rank of the general. He was a colonel. He sensed Thomas and Drew as they rose from the shadows inside the hovercraft.

Another reason why he sensed Thomas and Drew was because of the somewhat thick divine energy within them as they bore Allen's divine mark, which contained, rather, plenty of divine energy.

"Oh, how did flies manage to enter?" The colonel said.

The pilot was confused. He was not as strong as the colonel, he barely reached the strength of a captain. He was not focusing on strengthening himself because he believed that his true strength lies in the hovercraft that he was piloting.

But, despite being confused, the pilot did not say a thing and simply focused on flying the craft.

Meanwhile, Thomas and Drew began to suffocate by a type of energy that seemed to be akin to the demonic energy, only, it was weaker than the latter.
