"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom—!"
On the battlefield, the gigantic Mutant Demon Scarab named Antares continued its rampage. It seemed to be venting its fury over the near-total annihilation of its army. Advancing toward Mistgun with an immovable bearing, it released flashes of curse power from the countless eyes covering its body. The flashes transformed into a sky full of beams, sweeping in every direction and setting off wave after wave of explosions that shook the entire airspace.
"Fall back!"
"Retreat!"
"Deploy your magic barriers!"
"Whatever you do, don't get hit!"
"No good! The beams are too fast!"
The Aerial Combat Mages who had been slaughtering their enemies moments ago were thrown into complete disarray. Faced with the astonishing power of the Mutant Strain Antares, they could only flee for their lives.
The curse-power flashes of the Mutant Strain named Antares tore through the air at the speed of light while displaying astonishing might. Even with all the Aerial Combat Mages deploying magic barriers, anyone struck by one of those flashes could only end up plummeting from the sky, smoke pouring from their bodies, before being rescued by their comrades.
Of course, the Aerial Combat Mages did their utmost to fight back.
Those who still had mana fired at Antares one after another, sending countless Magic Bullets and blasts of magical power streaking across the sky and crashing into Antares, raising wave after wave of explosions as well.
However, the Aerial Combat Mages' attacks could not even slow Antares's advance.
Even a Mutant Strain like Tianjin Four, which was merely a medium-sized specimen, could deploy a curse barrier. How could Antares, which had subdued nearly ten Tianjin Four Mutant Strains, possibly lack one?
A barrier of curse power flickered over Antares's body, rejecting every attack. Countless shots and blasts could
