Novel Full Chapter 1495: Cracker
Chapter 1495: Cracker
The coin-sized round glowing objects are flying everywhere and landed on different spots.
Some landed on the formation barrier right beside the point of contact and some landed on the nearby structures.
Some landed on the people who are walking by and some landed on the ground and trees around.
But almost everything in the thirty-meter radius was hit by these coins and as soon as they landed, they gave out small explosive popping sounds.
*POP*
*POP*
*POP*
"AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHH…."
The people who got hit by these coins immediately screamed. Everyone from within the clan's estate came out immediately to take a look at what is happening. The explosion is so loud that there are very few people who could have not listened to it.
The guards who came took a look at the people that got hit by these things.
One of them got a coin-sized circular red dot on the face and some straight sharp lines of red colour spread all over their face and extended all over the head and then the body as they spread through the neck.
In the same way, another person had a spot on the hand and the lines spread past the hand and then onto the chest.
The guards looked at the surroundings and saw that there are red dots here and there. They are extending some red lines randomly, but they are not exactly visible clearly, because of the soil colour.
The guards carried the injured people away, while some of them left there and investigated.
The first thing that is clearly noticeable is the dots on the barrier.
Even the dots on the barrier appeared the same way. A dot is spreading red lines all over the barrier in an extremely rapid pace.
Sam and Giyon were informed about the incident instantly along with the leaders of the clan and the grand elders.
Meanwhile, the guards stood there as they were really wary about these red dots. As they are looking at them, they saw some changes happening. The first one they saw is in the trees.
The red lines from the dot spread deep into the trees and before they knew it, it started burning. A lot of fire elemental energy was released from that burning tree and the surrounding guards felt the extreme heat hitting their faces.
One of them used their water elemental energy to put the fire out, but to their surprise, all it did was create steam all around them. The fire didn't go out.
It went on and on raging and after the tree was completely burned to ashes including the roots, the flames spread to the surrounding earth.
Even the soil was caught with the flames and started melting.
All of this happened in a matter of seconds and the same thing started happening with the soil around them and it started burning and melting with a heavy discharge of fire elemental energy.
The only thing that was not caught on flame is the barrier.
The lines that spread diffused into a large patch of red. A massive amount of fire elemental energy is released into the barrier network.
The energy of the barrier and the fire elemental energy started conflicting.
Meanwhile, the people that are being transported to get medical attention are also struggling.
"AAAAARGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH….."
"KILLL MEE. NOWWWW."
They are screaming for their lives and screaming for their deaths. The guards watched as their flesh and skin turned red, their eyeballs and the skin started burning soon. The ears started bleeding, they started puking blood out of their mouth.
Their hair started burning and then their clothes.
Their excessive fat melted down into sweat and then into vapours. The skin cracked and blood seeped out.
Soon red vapour came out of their flesh as they died and finally their bodies started burning.
Before the guards could do anything, even their bones started burning up. Leaving nothing but ash behind.
Sam ran as fast as he can and saw the people burning upon his passing.
"Fuck."
He cursed out loud as he ran out to check the barrier situation.
The whole area in the thirty meters radius is burning up. The only thing that doesn't have any immediate effect is the barrier, but anyone could see that it is gradually weakening.
Sam looked around and called the guard captain.
"Put everyone in the watchtowers with the telescopes. Keep on checking. As long as they see anything coming from any direction, tell them to notify. Make sure that no one stays anywhere near the barrier."
"Yes, sir."
"I need a flying beast."
The guard hesitated before giving his own. Sam flew on the beast and hovered over the red spot on the barrier.
He still doesn't have his metal arm, so he could only use his normal arm.
He covered it with spiritual energy as he placed it on the red patch of the barrier.
He placed it on the red patch as he started injecting his spiritual energy and stopped the spread of the fire elemental energy.
He used the energy control to push block the fire elemental energy with his own energy and pushed it out forcefully.
The barrier fluctuated a bit, but it soon stopped and went back to normal.
Sam held a ball of red colour being surrounded by a globe of white colour. He took a step back and aimed it into the sky before shooting it.
*BOOM*
A massive flaming explosion occurred.
By now Gail, Gamin and the clan's leader who were in a meeting also arrived.
"What happened Sam?"
"They are using Energy Cracker. I didn't know he would be able to make it."
Sam said with a solemn expression.
"Energy cracker? What kind of thing is it? Did it cause all of this?"
Gail asked as he looked at the destruction caused in the thirty-meter radius.
"Yes. We need to activate the crystal dome barrier. It is impossible to defend against this and even if we did, it will only cause more damage to us."
Sam then turned to the guards and ordered.
"Tell everyone to stay inside. Nobody is allowed to come out until the further orders are given."
They nodded and left.
After ordering and activating the crystal dome, Sam and the rest went back into the clan estate.
Sam went to the lab and ordered some things from the artisans. Some of the other important work has been thrown to the backend.
"What is the Energy Cracker, you were talking about?"
"It is a weapon that I made. It is used to create certain levels of damage within a restricted space. Its effect is not just limited to cultivators. It works on barriers, formations, formation plates, inscriptions, people, beasts, walls, trees, grass and even plain soil.
In fact, this is not even the complete version of the energy cracker. It was not materialized completely in my head, that is why I never made it."
"This destroyed everything within a thirty-meter radius and people that died, didn't even leave bones behind and this is not even the complete version?"
"No, it is not. It is energy inefficient. It takes up way too many resources and way too much energy to be made and the skills of the person that makes these things need to be extremely high.
I am even surprised that they even made these cheap imitations."
"These are cheap imitations?"
"Yes."
"How does this even work? Why is it so powerful enough to impact everything?"
"The main principle the cracker works on is energy corrosion. Everything in this world can be corroded by elemental energy that the thing doesn't belong to.
And this cracker contains pellets of processed, concentrated and compressed energy that was ready to diffuse into any substance that has any form of spiritual energy in it.
The energy will first be guided along the channels of spiritual energy or any other channel for that matter.
If it fell on a person, it will take up the spiritual energy network, the circulatory system and even the respiratory system if there is a chance.
The lines of compressed energy will spread as far as they can before all of it is released in a single second. All of this excessive fire elemental energy diffuses forcefully into the body at the same time.
They would wish that their hearts dugout instead of this.
I am really surprised that Sivan even understood this concept, much less make it."
"How did you even make such a weapon?"
Gail asked with a very weird expression. Gamin, Giyon and Grivon also had similar expressions. They felt extremely confused and lost.
They couldn't understand what kind of thought process even led to that such creation.
"What is wrong with your head? Why did you think of such a twisted way of killing people?" Gail continued asking as he looked at Sam.
"Are you really expecting me to answer that question?"
Sam asked with a frown.
"No, actually. I am really afraid of listening to your answer. Why don't we just skip to the part where you tell us how to defend against it."
