Holy Necromancer: Rebirth of the Strongest Mage-Chapter 778 : Initiative

Earth had come to a standstill with the appearance of multiple strange beings. It wasn't the first time a god had arrived on earth to harm them either.

It hadn't been long since Caen had done the same. However, this time, the Governments weren't as unprepared. Ever since the incident with Caen when they came to learn about these god-like beings, they had been preparing for emergency situations like this.

Although the citizens were kept in the dark about this potential threat, almost everyone in the Military and Higher Defence Staff was informed about this in the past. That was also a reason why the Army wasn't as shocked at the sight of beings that could fly.

They had spent a long time preparing for a situation like this. Nonetheless, they were taken aback by how quickly this day had arrived.

"What do you think? Will we be able to return alive today?" One of the Soldiers asked as he kept his gun aimed at the dark dark robed person in the sky.

"Who knows. I'm not even sure if our bullets can kill him in the first place. We've never faced things like these ourselves. Even the last time..." The other soldier sighed as he kept an eye on the Evacuation Team.

He was one of the soldiers who were sent to stop Caen last time. However, he couldn't even pass through Caen's barrier.

He didn't know what happened after that, but by the time he came back to his senses, he had realized that he was back at the base.

At that time, he had thought that he had a weird dream, but soon he came to know that other soldiers also had missing memories. If it wasn't for the Government to be open with them, they still wouldn't have known just what happened.

Although they didn't see it with their own eyes as the scene was cleaned, but what they heard was horrifying. Thousands of people were killed that day. And it was just one person who did it at that time, but now there were so many more. He could only imagine how much damage these people could cause if they were given an opportunity.

"I have a clear view. Should I shoot and test if our bullets can get through?" The first soldier asked, his aim straight at the head of the dark robed being in the sky.

"Hold still. Our commands were clear. If they don't attack, we won't either. They are here to look for someone. If that person appears and they leave, then we won't have to fight. But if that person doesn't appear, I myself will empty all my bullets in that bastard's body!"

The Soldiers were slightly concerned, but they held their ground without running away. They were ready to fight, only waiting for the instructions to come.

Most of the weapons were aimed at Ezekiel who appeared to be the leader of this group.

While the dark robed men were waiting in the sky for Janus to appear, one of them heard an annoying sound nearby.

Frowning, he opened his eyes and looked in the distance, noticing a helicopter circling around him from the distance.

At the entrance of the Helicopter, a camera was focused on him with a reporter next to the camera, giving commentary.

"These idiots! Did they not get the instructions?!" The nearby Army General was also stunned to see the helicopter. Even the army wasn't using helicopters since they didn't want to take risks.

Inside the helicopters, they had very limited mobility, especially against the people who could freely fly and destroy any obstruction in their path.

"What an annoying sound." The dark robed man stated, his voice filled with annoyance.

"Get me through to them!" The Army General commanded his men, but as soon as he finished his sentence, he froze in place.

He saw the dark robed man flick his finger lightly. With a light flick, the space itself was split apart right in the middle of the helicopter. In the blink of an eye, the helicopter was swallowed by the black hole that was created.

The reporter couldn't even react as she was devoured by the spatial crack with the helicopter.

"Much better." The black robed man closed his eyes once again.

"This..." The Army General was frozen in place. He couldn't believe what he saw. When he was told about these people, he was informed that they were like gods, but even then he hadn't thought that they were going to be this frightening.

"These... These are what we're up against?" Everyone who saw the scene was taken aback. The high morale of the army started flickering.

Everyone began questioning their abilities, wondering how they could possibly defend against such formidable adversaries. If they waited for them to attack, did they still have a chance to win?

The one opportunity they had was to attack when these beings weren't looking so they could've had a chance to attack. Because none of the soldiers believed they could survive the attack.

The black robed man's power seemed limitless, and the sheer destruction caused by the spatial crack left them feeling helpless. And that was just one of those beings. There were many more all around the world.

Even the General, known for his unwavering determination, couldn't help but doubt their chances of victory. He thought about changing a plan.

He turned around and tried to contact the Defence Headquarters to tell them that they needed to change the plan! They couldn't wait anymore! They had to take the initiative and attack these beings. Moreover, they all had to do it at the same time to increase the chances of success.

They had to kill all these intruders at the same time, because if one was killed and others found out about it, they could take measures and after that point, this battle was as good as gone.

With a sense of urgency, he relayed the information to the Defence Headquarters, emphasizing the critical need for immediate action. He knew that every second counted, and the fate of their mission rested on executing this coordinated attack flawlessly.
