War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 19

The intimidating atmosphere made the rest of the awakened stop in their tracks as they knew that they just encountered someone strong and that even if they combined their ability and the rune array, they knew that they would not defeat such an enemy.

While looking at the group, Xin Ja did not say anything and just waited for them to choose.

"This… Sir, this is all a misunderstanding… Hehehe… Why don't you pass through here? No problem, no one will stop you guys… Hehehe…" the D-rank said while gesturing for Xin Ja and his group to pass while his group made way.

But before he could say anything a sharp blade appears on Xin Ja's hand and is already on his neck.

"Everyone, don't move! Let them pass!" he shouted with a trembling voice.

Xin Ja did not say anything and just watches as the group all came to one side.

When they parted, he could see a few of them showing malicious glares toward the bus. So he feel a bit uncomfortable, so he gestured for them to all come to one corner.

"I will let you guys leave this place… But if I ever see you again, then that means that your luck is out…" Xin Ja warned.

As the bus passes through the portion where the array is, they all look at the ruined carriages. They could only shake their heads at the outcome of the victims of that group.

As the group passes through, they suddenly heard a weird noise and then a flash of light appears. Then they all saw the environment changes around them.

"Damn it! We're trapped!" shouted one of the soldiers.

But before he could react, an arrow was already shot in his direction.

The soldier did not have time to dodge as his body was thrown to the ground after being hit by an arrow.

"Hahaha… Fools! Do you think it is that easy to take us down?!" shouted the D-rank man from outside the array formation.

"Get inside the bus…" Xin Ja commanded as the three soldiers ran inside while dragging their comrade.

Gun Mace and his group of researchers quickly helped the three soldiers.

Meanwhile, a rain of arrows coming from everywhere just appears and hits the bus. However, how could it easily penetrate the bus just like that?

Meanwhile, Xin Ja looks at the array around him while dodging the flying arrows as he began walking in a certain direction.

He then stopped walking after looking at a certain tree.

With a stump of his feet, a crack appears on the ground and that tree suddenly vanished.

Xin Ja then threw out a couple of bone runes and created his own formation after destroying that portion of the array.

The people outside were all confused about what he was doing. Even the ones who learned in runes felt a bit confused at his actions.

But then before they knew it, the whole area suddenly vanished from their sight.

"Shit! That bastard! That bastard actually broke the array! He changed the array!" shouted a panicking voice coming from the other D-Rank awakened.

"What?! What are you saying?" the man who confronted Xin Ja a while ago shouted in anger.

Though they could not kill Xin Ja because of his level, they are confident that he could not escape the array as they have used the same tactics to trick many powerful demons that have hunted them.

But who would have known that the young man would be able to determine the array and even change it to his whims?

The annoyance and the anger could be seen on the man's face while he glared at his companions.

But then before he could say anything…

Shriek!!!

They suddenly heard some shrieking sound coming from the misty skies.

Without hesitation, they all quickly look up. Some of them are already running towards some of the wrecked cars on the road to hide.

"Demons!" someone cried while running.

Then in a blink of an eye, a large winged demon swoops down and suddenly grabbed at that awakened. The guy wanted to fight but he is already powerless as the demon clamped on both of his shoulders rendering him immobile.

Then with its mouth full of sharp teeth, the demon bit down and devoured the head of the man spraying his blood all over the ground.

The rest began to fire their arrows to the skies trying to hit that demon while retreating.

Suddenly, from out of nowhere, another one of them suddenly cried in pain. When their eyes landed on that person, they could see him being skewered by a sword made of some animal's bone.

And behind that awakened is an invisible demon that looks like a thin person with four arms.

That demon flicks the man to the side while he licks the blood on his sword.

As he walks, he grabs another bone sword from his waist and brandishes it in the air while looking at the group of awakened.

As the eyes of everyone landed on that guy, they noticed that behind him are a few dozen of demons sitting calmly on some of the broken cars and on the ground. It was as if they are watching some kind of show that is about to happen.

The thin-looking demon leading the group showed a faint smile on his face while standing calmly.

It looks like he is wearing a bone mask as he lifted it up showing a single eye a large mouth and a face made up of muscles.

"Humans… I am… Kelos… and I want to challenge you… to a duel…" he said in a slightly stuttering human language.

Everyone did not say anything and just watch in horror while hiding in their places.

"You a demon wanted to challenge us? How can we trust you?" shouted the D-rank man.

"Hihi… You don't… have a choice… It's either a chance of life… or certain… death." The demon said as a menacing glare appears on all the demons behind him.

While this is happening, Xin Ja and his group are watching from inside the formation array.

"Should we help them? They are still our kind after all…" Gun Mace asked while looking at Xin Ja who is standing just outside the bus.

"They stop being humans after they did that…" Xin Ja suddenly pointed at the location of many skeletons stockpiled on the side of a broken-down building that looks like a street diner.

When the researchers looks at the side, they all showed pale faces. They could tell that those are human skeletons. There are demons in them, but most of the skeletons in that pile are from humans.

"Are you sure that they are the ones that did that?" Gun Mace asked with a frown.

"I'm not… at first… But from the way they attack us, I'm certain then that they did it…"

Everyone was silent and they watch the happening outside the array.

"Will we be safe in here?" Gun Mace asked with a worried look.

"If we just hide here, then I don't know… But if we fight back, then I'm sure we will be safe…" Xin Ja thought for a while and replied.

"That's right… since this is a hidden place. Then we can just shoot them from here…" one of the soldiers suddenly said as he got off the bus followed by the other one who was not wounded.

"You guys…" Gun Mace wanted to say something but stopped.

"Senior… You don't have to worry too much, I'll handle those flying demons…" the female researcher who is also the one manning the gun port of the bus said with confidence.

Gun Mace was a bit stumped, but grits his teeth and decided to join.

"Well, since we can't help it, then we can just try the capability of the new weapons… I'll test one of the Goliath Suits…" Gun Mace said as if he just had a brilliant idea.

Without hesitation, he hopped on a suit and then quickly activates it.

It took a while to reboot, and after checking the data he is getting, he put on the now lighter helmet.

After a bit of calibration, the Goliath Suit suddenly moved to make the rest of the researchers take a step back.

The back of the bus opens up as the Goliath Suit walks heavily on the ground.

While on the bus, it is only about a meter and a half tall, now that it exited, it is now about 2 and a half meters.

The suit is more of an exoskeleton rather than a Mecha. This is because this is only the prototype that Gun Mace is working on.

Its hands and feet are made of flimsy-looking metal, but strong enough to support its weight.

"Hehe… What do you think, sir?" Gun Mace said with a smug smile on his face.

He waited for a reply but he was shocked to see Xin Ja suddenly appears in front of him. He became more confused as he was suddenly dragged to the side.

By that time, he heard a ringing sound as something seem to have hit the side of the arm of the suit.

Then he saw a bony sword landing on the ground.
