The Primordial Record - Chapter 1083

Chapter 1083 Kill! Kill! Kill!

These beasts were dangerous, yet predictable, but today turned out to be different.

The Calamities did not stop pouring out from the ground in ever-increasing numbers even after hours of fighting, and although this group was an elite army forged from many years of battle, they had begun to lose some of their members to the fangs of the Calamities, and with growing pressure and fatigue in their minds and bodies, it was only a matter of time until they would all fall, a single mistake and a domino effect would spiral among their group and their extinction would be a foregone conclusion.

Rowan assessed this group of Blood Bound, currently, there were almost tens of thousands of similar groups scattered across hundreds of miles of terrain battling against an endless tide of Calamity Beasts rising from beneath the earth. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

These seemingly endless mines were spread across the entire continent, but this outbreak was focused primarily around this area in a region that was a few hundred miles in circumference.

The death toll among the Blood Bounds was in the thousands but in a short moment as the weight of the endless assaults crossed a threshold, this number would reach hundreds of thousands and then millions. In a battle like this, there were no survivors.

If the Calamities were free to break out of the earth with no resistance, then the death toll would quickly rise to tens of millions even hundreds of millions in a short time and that was the least of the damages that could occur.

This breakout would scatter the delicate balance created around the entire continent, and the Blood Bounds keeping the other mines in check would be overrun by the sudden enemies bearing down upon them from above, and it would not be long before this continent would be buried under an endless tide of Calamities.

The Ascendants would not care, they would wait a while and clear the surface of the continent before bringing back a new batch of mortals to take over the land, this would cause them losses in the short term, a millennium or two would go by before things return to normal, but what was such a short time to an immortal?

Rowan knew that this would not be the first time such a thing had happened, and he did not know whether to laugh or cry when he figured out that the Ascendants were unerringly doing the same thing that this World's Will was doing to them, but on a much greater scale.

A wordless message went across the majority of the Vanguard, and even though they had been battling for hours and needed to recuperate, they chose to attack, perhaps their sacrifice could be the difference between a million years of sorrow ahead for their descendants or a few thousand.

The first Vanguard that slayed a docile Calamity Beast nearly went into shock when a wave of golden light emerged from the slain beast and entered his flesh. He retreated in panic but went still when an enormous wave of power and vitality flooded his body.

The tiredness and the wounds he had accumulated for hours began to vanish, and before his astonished gaze, his left arm that he had lost to the Calamity years ago that refused to heal because of the dormant poison of the beasts he was fighting began to itch and a new limb was slowly being regrown.

Similar events were happening as the thousands of Vanguards that struck the first blows were covered by a wave of golden light.

"What is happening?" "My arms... my eyes..."

"I think... I think I just became stronger, not my Aura, but my flesh, and my scales are stronger."

"Could it be that finally our bloodline is no longer cursed, we don't have to be the dogs of the Ascendant or the food for calamity?"

"I don't know what is happening, or why we are benefiting from it, but I know one thing we should be doing at this moment. Killing!

The eyes of every vanguard lit up as something denied from them since birth was activated, and they charged against the confused Calamity Beasts.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
