Ascension of the Nephilim-Chapter 389 Saving Water With Fire

The massive attacks eliminated millions of Brimstone beasts almost instantly.

But it drained Kyros, Mechiel, and Listrel.

The elves and the demi-humans were shocked at the massive attack they witnessed.

"That... That power!"

"Amazing, aren't they. Kyros and Mechiel are Champions. Listrel is at the Commander level. But that attack was something only a Crown could do!" Lea smiled.

The attack was something that the previous Midland kings and cultivators could do. The strongest in the Midlands were Conquerors. But most kingdoms in the Midland had such power to strike.

"Crown?! Aren't those attacks at Conqueror levels?!" Aubrey asked.

"Oh... Sorry. I was speaking in Highland or Netherland standards. Sorry." Lea chuckled.

The group was amazed.

"But even among Crowns, that was quite special. And now in this new world without Codes and Corruption is practically impossible to pull off."

"I've never seen that form of power!" Rivarridon was amazed.

"Me too. And that was using the power of darkness! It was a gravity-based attack! Listrel used the brimstone earth form against them. It was easily brought in and pulled by that attack. But the one that triggered the devouring process was the darkness." Lea was astounded that the power of Kyriachos created such a devouring power. In any case, our mission continues. Kyros told us to prepare a team to quickly fly over towards Serpent Pond. Send them! The rest of us will clear out these enemies and make haste to get there!"

The armies moved as Kyros, Listrel, and Mechiel were placed upon a massive platform designed to pour out the power of life through the plants.

The Rocs soon arrived after sending men back and forth the lands to cultivate and increase its growth, and the new orders were given out.

The High Bows were sent along with the best fighters of Castle Rock.

The team flew out and passed through the great Brimstone Beasts in the far distance.

In Serpent Pond, the battle had begun.

The remaining waters were used and shot out the approaching Brimstone Beasts.

The serpents swam and attacked the beasts as the tides rose, and the waves crashed on the group and receded. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

With the waters manipulated by a few genius water mages, they were able to fight and attack the Brimstone Beasts through an aquatic battle.

The hardening of the Brimstone Beast made them slower and easier targets for the team.

Hems was at the very front of the battlefield battling alongside the lizardman. He would ride the wave with a board and deliver a strong attack with a long spear that the lizardman used.

His two memories were merging. The fighting skills that he had honed and achieved in the past life had allowed him to have the strength that was close to becoming a Champion. But the short but sweet memories of his fight leading to the Thane Dragons were causing him to improve his ability to fight.

"Why can't I feel it? Fate Challenger is not working here!" Hems cursed.

Numerous Brimstone Beast charged at him, but he began to stab his spear as he retreated.

More rushed in, and he had no choice but to jump back at the water where some men couldn't cultivate pulled him back.

Many of the warriors had this set up which allowed them to fight.

Hems arrived back at shore.

"Three more..." Hems laughed.

"I can't keep up with you!" A lizardman frowned.

"My constant attacks on them are already hurting me! How can you resist the heat?" the lizardman next to him asked.

"Heal up and stay in the inner pools to cool down. You've been overexposed to the heat." One of the doctors observed, and the lizardman nodded and was replaced with another fighter.

"Master Hems. Are you not affected?" The doctor asked curiously.

The warrior who fought next to Hems was a Champion! And yet he had to retreat. But Hems could already outfight several warriors who took the post as those who fought in the front lines and didn't suffer burn wounds!

"I don't know... I don't feel anything. It's supposed to hurt, right?" Hems asked.

"Yes. Look at my men. They suffer burns from constant exposure. Could it be...? Because you were once brimstone, you have a body of brimstone?" The doctor asked.

Hems was surprised at the words of the doctor. But it made sense!

"What...!" Hems was amazed at the realization.

"Amazing!" A young teen who was aiding in pulling the ropes glanced at Hems.𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

"Send me back in. I want to try something..." Hems took the board and were prepared to dive in.

The water mages created the ripple of magic and were about to send another wave of water.

Hems surfed his way into the front lines, and many lizardmen swam and made a jumping attack to stab the foes. The Champions aimed for Champion Brimstone, and Hems naturally fought the weaker minions.

Hems slew one but didn't retreat immediately and fought harder, diving deeper into the ranks of Brimstone beasts as he slashed and sliced the brimstone beasts and slashed off its limb.

The warriors were confused. They were thought to fight and stab the core of the Brimstone Beast as cutting its limbs won't do much damage and will only make the beast regenerate.

But Hems made one last attack and severed a small part of the Brimstone beast's hands. He made a quick stab at killing the Brimstone beast and then rushed in and took the small severed hand of brimstone!

"What?!" Everyone watching Hems was stunned.

"Ow! It's hot." Hems complained as he retreated and dove into the waters.

He was being pulled back, but as he appeared, everyone felt the heat.

Hems were still clutching onto the Brimstone piece.

"It's a bit hot. So I might get burned if I hold on to it for a long time. But... this proves it. I am resistant to it!" Hems had a smile on his face.

"Master Hems! You have a brimstone-resistant body because you once were brimstone!" The doctor exclaimed.

"That's probably it. But I wonder... If I am a Vampire Brimstone, does that mean I can drink the blood of those beasts?" Hems wondered.

"What?! That's not possible!"

"It's possible, alright. In my two memories, the memories with lord Kyros are more memorable than the lifetime I had in my other memory. But it was that memory that I remembered the most! The impossible was possible with him! I am a Vampire Ancient through his blood!"

"An Ancient?! Do you understand what you are saying?!"

"Yes! I do! I do now! Back then, when I met Lord Kyros, I didn't understand the ranks of vampires. But in the long life here, I do! Kyros holds the blood of a Fallen! The Fanged Fallen! We drank his blood! We could become a Vampire Ancient! And if I am that, and I can eat the brimstone, then it's possible!" Hems smiled.

"I want to find out too. Master Hems, I'll assist you in capturing a Brimstone Beast. We'll go fishing. We catch one, weaken it, and you can try drinking its blood inside the cool pool inside." A Champion lizardman offered.

"That's an amazing plan! Let's catch one of the weaker ones first!" Hems laughed.

And so the group did so and launched an attack.

Hems severed a Brimstone Beast in half, and the other skewered the beast and retreated.

The commotion was noticeable to the other fighters nearby as they witnessed Hems and two Lizardman carry a Brimstone beast with no arms and legs!

"What's going on here?!" A Commander inside the cool pool asked.

"Trust me, commander!" Hems laughed as they threw the Brimstone beast in the cold water.

The Brimstone Beast roared in pain, but Hems borrowed a blade and chipped the beast's chest, revealing the core.

He stabbed it and took a small portion of the core, and the Brimstone beast squealed.

"Here goes nothing!" Hems bit on the molten liquid!

"AHHHH!" Hems shouted in pain as he felt the fire burn and sweep in his body.

But as he had expected, he then felt the power spreading in!

"Damn, that burns! But it's working! It's working!" Hems stabbed the sword and ate a bigger chunk.

Everyone was shocked at what they saw. Hems kept feeding on the Brimstone beasts and screamed in pain and would even dip himself down in the water to drink it.

But his bites grew more and more, and he devoured the entire core.

Hems could feel the power coursing out and directing the energy, and when he opened his mouth, a strange heat could be seen. His very mouth now had Brimstone element!

"Get me another one!" Hems ordered.

"It's working! I am gaining a body more resistant to Brimstone! Hurry!" Hems shouted.

"I'll do it! We're capturing another weaker one and a Champion level!" The Commander exclaimed. He had connected the dots and understood the intention.

"This is amazing! Someone report this news to the king! Hems can save this pond with fire!"
