Chapter 474: Gaze
Translator: Dess Editor: EbonyFrost
Dark clouds covered almost half of the bright moon .
As the steam from the sea kept rising to the sky, the moon started to become blurry .
Yet under the blurry moon, a minimal amount of moonlight shone over the blazing figure . Following its blazing fire, the night became bright, dazzling and even eye-catching .
It looked like there was a smaller burning sun rising up high in the night sky .
Though, the soldiers on the battleships couldn't admire such a peculiar scene .
The rampant aura brought forth endless chaos, the dense sulphuric scent was like a sign of a volcanic eruption .
Trembling with fear, the soldiers who had weaker wills started to mutter gibberish to themselves, they fled in disorder around the ship deck .
Some of the stronger willed soldiers were frozen as well when they saw the devilish figure, only a single thought lingered in their mind .
How could the Sanctuary house a devil? Why would the Sanctuary send out a devil?
General Barry was asking the same question too .
Compared to his men, General Barry knew the identity of the devil floating in the sky .
It was 2567, the assistant of God of Earth .
The bait that started the series of events but wasn't he imprisoned by Smulder?
Why would the devil appeared before them?
All of a sudden, General Barry thought his plans were compromised, he was trying to find the flaws within .
Any perfect plan would fail because of unexpected circumstances, so a wise man would prepare a contingency plan in case such incidents occur .
General Barry was no exception, even more so because of his position and authority . He had more contingency plans than others .
Still he wasn't fond of the scene, he couldn't appreciate the scene at all .
General Barry was looking coldly at his useless men .
Despite being known as elite soldiers, they were only elites to the commoners, not the mystics .
The chaotic scene reminded General Barry of a bird's nest being destroyed by rocks .
His gloomy mood plummeted even more and eventually infuriated him .
"Get off!"
General Barry kicked away one of the escaping soldiers before him and quickly headed towards the boxes .
After inputting some complicated instructions, the two smaller boxes opened up .
Two strange beings walked out of the boxes . They had the head and body of a lion but wings were on its back . The wings on it were strong, a slight flap would bring up a strong wind, it sent all the escaping soldiers falling on deck .
Its limbs were covered with snake scales, especially its claws at the end, it looked more like a iron forged weapon than a lion claw .
Gak Tsk, Gak Tsk!
As both the monsters took steps forward, their iron claws gave out an irritating screech when they touched the deck, leaving marks on the plank .
As both the monsters walked, they were wiggling their robust tail which was similar to a fish and at the end of their tail, there was a eerie head of a human! The human head had no nose, mouth or ears but four pairs of eyes, lining up from its forehead to its chin . Its eyes were blinking non-stop, emanating a haunting green glow .
Following the monster's movements, a rotten stench floated across the deck .
The fallen soldiers were struggling on the floor, giving out cries of panic ceaselessly . However, such struggles caught the attention of the monsters . Without any hesitation, both the monsters threw themselves over to the struggling soldiers and devoured them after a hungry roar .
After a series of agonizing cries and chewing noises, both the monsters were covered with layers of blood and minced meat . They walked towards General Barry with a face of satisfaction .
"Finished your meal? If so, go have some exercise!"
General Barry didn't even lay eyes over his dead men, he pointed at Kieran in the sky and Smulder at the beach .
In the general's point of view, he was not moved by his men dying in vain . If all his useless soldiers' lives could be traded for Smulder's life, he wouldn't mind to pay ten times, hundred times over . He would gladly pay the lives of his men rather than revealing his trump card at this moment .
After all, his ambitions wasn't only limited to the Sanctuary, he had more on his mind .
