Chapter 333 Road of Death
Chapter 333 Road of Death
Such an easy method to refine a bloodline or increase a Mage\'s grasp of their spells was a commodity that could only be found in this place. This led to astounding battles fought over the rights to reside in any of the Zones.
The most closely contested White Zones were those that contained more than one Aspect. Such Zones were incredibly stable and could last for centuries, and if a Noble Family could control a zone that was closer to their Bloodline Origin, they would protect it, fighting tooth and nail to keep the resources for their own use, after all, it was a finite resource and even if new White Zones were being created every day, it was always never enough.
If a Dominator of the Boreas Family encounters a White Zone that has an Aspect of Lightning and Frost enters that zone and practices using his Paths, it would be far easier to ascend through the Great Circles.
Unlike Rowan who was beyond using such resources to increase his State of Change, Dominators, Demons, and even the Mages all fought for these White Zones in order to grow more powerful.
For the present Dominators that were about to enter the battlefield, they did not need to compete for White Zones, they only need to survive and scavenge around the edges of the battlefield and the increased Aether concentration in the air and the constant battles would increase their bloodline potency, making it easier to ascend to the second great circle.
At the Second Great Circle, they could begin refining their Territories and Bloodline, it was at this Realm that White Zones became important, as Bloodline Refinement that would have taken centuries would be reduced to just a few months.
From the Spirit Territory Realm to the Incandescent Realm and Finally the Proclamation Realm, thereafter, the Third Great Circle.
Breaking into the third Great Circle needed more than just Aether, however, as there was an essential item needed to breakthrough, which was an Aura Field.
Yet, deep inside the battlefields, there were many rumors of different types of Aura Fields that could be found, but that was for Dominators at the peak of the Second Great Circle to worry about.
Mezrakim and Dora were in the body of two Tiberius Family Incarnation state Dominators, they stayed nondescript, and only spoke as little as possible.
The Horush Family Dominator nodded at all of them and proceeded to move forward. In a Major World like Trion flying was very difficult and Micah would rather spare his energy for protecting himself than to fly, also if he flew he would just be presenting a clear target for all.
The Wolf-Like Beast he summoned were thickly muscled and could take a lot of damage without breaking down, with a healing factor that would regrow limbs, he had made sure to exchange for these powerful beasts before he entered the field of battle. Their invisibility, however, was their biggest selling point which made them worth the price he paid.
He was willing to escort all these Dominators across such a dangerous region because if push came to shove, he could always use them as meat shields, as he was only willing to sacrifice a small part of the Beast he won\'t in order to pass this region.
The fact that he showed these Dominators the beasts before making them invisible was for them to think he would be using them all for their protection, when he had subtly withdrawn ninety percent of them into his Territory.
"Move!" He yelled and he began racing down the road. The rest hustled after him, all of them wishing to find cover inside the heavy bodies of the beasts that were no longer there, the movements of the beasts were silent, so that duplicity on the part of Micah was not detected, or so he thought.
They were moving at a decent pace, covering a third of the distance when something whistled through the crowd, as if it was being guided and impacted at the center of the formation, pinning an unlucky Dominator to the ground.
It was a spear made from ice that was thicker than a pole. It was eight inches thick, its impact destroyed the torso of the female Dominator, who was in shock, but before she could cry out the woman was frozen in place, her pain filled face set in a rictus of terror.
"Fucking Mages!" Micah spat in anger, the spear had snuck through their numbers and located the person with the least amount of protection. This was the hallmark of mages, they had impressive firepower, yet they were full of cunning.
"Defenses up!" Micah warning outcry swept through their ranks, and multiple blooming defensive glow began to cover the charging group. They had avoided using any sort of large scale defensive formation before in order to avoid drawing too much attention to themselves, but as they were already being noticed, they did away with any hesitation and poured all their Aether into any defensive abilities they had.
Metal Sheets rose in the air, circling them as the Volgim Family Dominators created large revolving shields. The Kuranes Family Dominators made shields from earth and fire, and the Boreas from Ice and wind.
As the family with Bloodline with some of the best defenses, they shielded each other, with the experience each Incarnation State Dominator had, they covered most of their weak points.
This action was repeated by the thousands of Dominators that were also charging down this road, as the entire pass bloomed with multiple colored defensive glows. Above them the skies darkened as a rain of missiles both energy base and physical began to rain down.
The Dominators increased their movement speed, and for a while only the loud bang of missiles hitting their defensive circle and the dull groan of those unlucky enough to get hit filled the air.
For a while, the skies were lit up with frenzied energies as death rained down on this road, and when they approached the other end of it, a tenth of their number had fallen. Thousands were already dead before even stepping onto the field of battle.
It was with rage in their heart that the group where Nezrakim and Dora were located descended on a pair of unlucky mages who were slow to retreat, and their first major battle on the surface of Trion began.
Micah yelled excitedly, "Kill them all!"
