Darius Supreme-Novel

Chapter 613 – 613

With that cheesy line, hundreds of round-shaped objects dropped from the planes that were passing, categorically aimed at every square meter of the entire land. 

Falling through the air, the sight looked overwhelming and even though all of them knew nothing of what it did, they couldn't help but feel like it was the end of the world. 

And it was. The moment the explosives land, a huge shockwave erupted that shook the entire continent worse than a magnitude 10 earthquake. No, the fallout was so huge that the entire planet of Faust shook, everyone everywhere was able to feel the tremor of their planet. 

The seas raged, tsunamis spreading to the various continents across the world. Kiel, Unyris, Armadon, Pokterr, and Ludo who were far away from Elysium felt very little of these effects. 

Those closer to it, namely Fallon, Houto, and Pan suffered the worst. Even though the distance between them, even when described as 'close' was great, it was negligible in the face of this kind of fallout. 

Miranda had unleashed hundreds of thousands of mini suns on the continent of Elysium. These were not regular bombs, but thermobaric nuclear warheads. These were the kind of things that had earth in a military stalemate for the entirety of the 22nd century until Darius invented anti-nuclear technology. 

Then, war went back to being brutal and all-out. 

However, that was a thing of the past. Right now, Faust was reeling from the aftermath of this madness, something that would forever be written in the history of the planet. 

The entire continent of Elysium was reduced to sea debris, most of the remaining chunks of land floating away to become separate islands all over the world, while the majority of it simply sank to the bottom of the ocean. 

As for the City of Light, it was unknown what kind of status it had. It had disappeared from its place geographically, either being destroyed to nothingness, sunk to the bottom of the ocean, or had floated away to form its own island somewhere. 

For the first time, the stable 10 continents that had existed since the inception of Faust had been shattered, the so-called strongest continent being turned into nothing in a single attack. 

Whether it was True Lords, the remaining Gods, or any forces from the other continents that heard the news, they were all shocked to their core. A power like this had grown in just a year's time. 

Pokterr quickly became a forbidden zone, and many powers sent representatives to negotiate with Miranda. Basically, they wanted to negotiate with her to grant her sovereignty, territory, and various other benefits in exchange for shackling her under legal treaties and social rules to keep her from decimating them too. 

It was a clever move. 

As Miranda was now, she was too dangerous to be let loose, but force wasn't an option since they did not know the limits of her power or anything about how she worked really. 

Until they could take her down in one fell swoop, they would have to live in constant fear of her retaliation, hundreds of thousands of those flying metal birds unleashing hell upon them. 

Continents like Pan had arrays and formations that could protect them, but how long could those last in the face of constant bombardment? After all, a continent was situated in one place. 

It certainly couldn't raise its skirt and run away like a fearful maiden. 

So they could receive bombardments until Miranda ran out of weapons or Pan ran out of resources to power their arrays. This was not even accounting for Houto and the others, who had nothing of the sort. 

The True Lords were less fearful of this as their territories were on abstract locations in the world, some not even exactly on the planet! 

It was only those like Thanatos who had a territory on the planet's floor who would be worried, but even then, the Death God wasn't. In fact, he was gleeful, blessing the Goddess for letting Miranda exist. 

So much death had occurred in one day that his power had leaped greatly. All his injuries from that past war had been cleaned, and he could now leave this shitty continent to form his territory and restart his feud with Armadon. 

The Titan God wasn't the only one to benefit, though. All deities and beings within the Law of Death, whether Gods or otherwise, suddenly felt a spike in power as their element was so potent in Faust at this moment that it was like breathing in opium. 

You could picture it as similar to the fellow that placed that 6th stone on his gauntlet. The moment the deaths occurred, the death-aligned beings of the world all roared with power, black light coursing through them. 

Miranda naturally contacted Darius about the ongoing events, which left the fellow speechless. He had certainly asked Miranda to war with Elysium, but the idea was to have a battle of attrition and play to their strengths. 

This wasn't just to weaken Elysium, but to buy Darius time while he sorted out Fallon and began developing Ludo, then explored the power system of Pan to empower himself. 

However, Darius did not predict the foolishness of Pan and Houto, who were warlike and predatory groups that loved to defeat the weak. They joined in the war to exercise their limbs and reap some benefits, which forced Miranda to get them to return by bombing their homes. 

This had unintentionally clued Odysseus into the trick, and the war had entered a stalemate no matter how Miranda tried to provoke the Demi-God. As such, her computing told her that the best course of action was to scale up the war and force Elysium to act. 

And to do that, they would need to suffer devastating damage and be enraged into a fight, rather than surrendering. 

So Miranda had aimed to carpet bomb the entire continent. 

This would kill the precious mortals that the Gods relied on for their Faith Energy, and get them to retaliate.
