Ascension of the Nephilim-Chapter 381 Saving Castle Rock

The Nephilim Liberation Army formed ranks in the mountain region. A cliff had divided the mountain region from Castle Rock.

Before the days of Brimstone, Castle Rock and the elves had a very poor relationship and had even been in wars with each other.

The mountain regions that connected the land were even carved out as Castle Rock took the rocks and stones and elevated the cliff where the kingdom stood, towering over the land.

The height and sturdy mountains with only one trail leading to the top were why Castle Rock survived the calamity.

But now, never had the expected that the elves would appear on that mountain range, but it would appear to be hope.

"Descend the mountains! We will now fight! Commanders and Generals! Take your post!" Kyros ordered as he flew ahead with his three allies.

"General Logon! Take the forces to the north, and I will take the ones to the south. Keep your battles within the range and hide behind Castle Rock to keep the Brimstone beast from attacking us on the east side. High Bows! Take command! Catapults at the ready, and prepare the Grand Pike! Support Lord Miracle and Charlie's Angels!"

"We are not called that! Damn it, Calaminus!" Lea cursed as she heard the commands of Aubrey.

The various wooden mechs began to move down the bare mountain and officially entered the desert lands.

But unlike before, the elves now had people who fought at close range as they wore numerous battle mechs with massive pikes that had metal edges.

The people of Castle Rock cheered as they saw the elves move to battle.

"Demi-Humans! The elves who have been our enemies for eons are here to fight with us! Do yourselves a favor by fighting and killing as many as you can! Let us not repay the kindness of the elves with a hesitant heart! Fight with all your might!" The king shouted, and the entire kingdom erupted.

Morale soared to the heavens as Castle Rock quickly began to use the form of warfare that they developed to counter the hordes of brimstone through the years.

Men and women began to align themselves in a straight line and had a strange form of rock armor.

"A Stone and metal hybrid armor? What a primitive yet effective way to counter brimstone..." Kyros observed.

"They can fight in close-ranged combat!" Mechiel was also amazed.

"These folks live in the desert. The heat was also their companion. So naturally, their resistance is stronger." Listrel observed.

"Just like you, right?" Lea chuckled.

"Yes, and no. I am resistant to the purging aura because brimstone is close to the light. But the fires are not very comfortable to me." Listrel chuckled.

"Well, let's not let our allies fight. Do as planned. We are in charge of making sure none of the front lines falter. And try to save as many wood mechs as you can. With all these brimstone enemies, we could mine more metals for the coming fights." Kyros instructed as he prepared to enter combat mode.

"With all these Brimstone Beast, we will surely have metal to forge better weapons and armor! Unlike the elven kingdom, these people of Castle Rock seem to have amazing metallurgy to equip our forces. I believe I can finally repair my armor." Listrel smiled.

"This fire will also be a way to forge us as fighters. Without Histerion, this fight is ours. So take this time to experiment and harness your power. I will try to harness the light and the darkness in me for this fight."

"In short, Kyros will search for his inner panda." Calaminus joked.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Just... fight you guys..." Kyros didn't know what else to say and concentrated on harnessing his power.

Kyros closed his eyes and began to harness the power of the Light Core and the Dark Core.

His soul was divided into three parts used to plant the massive Soul Tree inside. The three souls nourished the Ygdrassil Soul Tree that had sprouted from the seed. This tree created energy for Kyros.

This meant that Kyros could recover Force and Magic energy constantly. And as long as Kyros would use attacks that are less than the constant regeneration, Kyros would have seemingly endless supplies of energy.

But Kyros applied this principle to his very body. His own body was now divided into three equal parts. The left hand held the Darkcore in his body, and his right held the Light Core. In the middle, the light and the dark were held back by the neutral. This allowed the two conflicting energies to live within the body.

He received tremendous energy from the Dryad, and caused his level to soar greatly. The numerous seals that weakened his body allowed him to surge in might and power.

Kyros took a look at his stats and his weapons and armor.

Kyros's stats made massive leaps. At his level, the massive boosts in the stats would give Kyros the title of having a Crown's Potential.

Except for his Dexterity, Intelligence, and the Ancient and Fallen Source stats, his values were a hundred points higher than those at level 30!

"So my stats are around a hundred to a hundred and seventy points higher than an average level 30. I guess I'm close to having a High-Crown's potential." Kyros smiled.

Kyros then took a look at his weapons and armor.

"Oh? I never noticed that my Wings of Darkness now has an official name. Wings of the Light and Shade, huh? Too bad I didn't bring Heralcus's shield. In this world, I would be able to undo the bindings that prevent me from fully tapping on to its real potential." Kyros sighed.

Kyros only brought one of the shields he crafted, and even that was damaged because of their fall when they entered this world. The shield of Heralcus had many seals, and while many parts of the seal were removed, Kyros found that there was still resistance to it and felt that the shield was also one of the weapon sets that belonged to the Heart of the Fallen, which his sword and cloak is.

After checking his stats, Kyros harnessed all his might, and the constant flow of power between the Light and Dark cores was causing Kyros's strength to rise.

"My light and darkness summons are now stronger." Kyros chuckled as he summoned the power of light and darkness borne from the combined powers of his sword, cloak, and cores.

Using the cloak's power, Kyros summoned a Prime Clone of Light and of Darkness.

A being of darkness and a being of light that had his exact form appeared. They had twenty percent of the power and might of Kyros and were of differing elements.

Using the power of the Sword, Kyros summoned twenty swords of light that hovered around him. However, since his sword was held in his Light arm, he could only bring out the light summons.

Finally, his two cores allowed him to create golems of light and darkness.

The energy of the two cores was drained as four golems emerged next to him, and each had wings of its own and could fly.

Unlike the other golems that the other cores and even the Light Core in the Temple could create, these golems were made mostly of light or dark energy and had little physical form.

"Wow... Your summons has gotten quite strong!" Lea was amazed. The Prime Clones of Kyros could actually hurt her!

"Are you done? As our commander, you are the one who should attack first." Listrel waited.

"Not yet. We still need to activate the mass Haste Spell."

"Can't we do it later? I want to fight without it." Lea asked.

"... Oh, all right. Let's go!" Kyros charged down, and the three ladies charged down with him.
