Chapter 801: Chapter 802 – Top Hat – Part 17.
<<After resting up enough and making sure that the area around us and the path that we would take was somewhat safe, our group had once again started moving.>>
<<Our next checkpoint would be a town type settlement.>>
<<According to the people of the Vigor town, they apparently do have some regular trades between themselves.... However, something wasn’t right.>>
<<Ever since the incident with the Red monsters, there was new traders.>>
<<...Then it means that there are two possibilities.>>
<<First, the town is in the danger, causing them to lock themselves up.>>
<<They are apparently far stronger than Vigor town when it comes to their military power, so they may have some chance.>>
<<Honestly, moving now would be beyond risky.>>
<<However, we have me and my ability to detect the divine blood of the Red Man.>>
<<If I concentrate, like meditate or something like that, I can increase my detection range, allowing me to spot those Red monsters from way farther distance..>>
<<With it, we should be able to tell if the town has fallen or not.>>
"..."
"We are approaching the town.... And so far, everything was okay." – said Issac as the group of the town guards alongside Lucy had went ahead of the group of refuges, hiding amongst the trees near the town’s wall.
"..."
"I don’t sense any Red monsters’ presence either." – said Lucy.
"This isn’t just the edge of the town, but somewhat deeper too.... I don’t sense anything."
"..."
"You say that... But... This isn’t right." – said Issac as he stared at the main gate of the town, completely destroyed.
"Was it the doing of the Red monsters?" – said panicking guard.
"I don’t know.... The Red monsters are all weird in nature, and unique... Some can have claws while some can have tentacles.... This damage looks like it was blown up.... And I do see something akin to claw marks on the wall’s surface too." – said Lucy as she was observing the damaged wall, bearing several different kind of damages.
"The Red monsters were definitely here before...."
"..."
(But are there any survivors left?) – thought worried Lucy.
"..."
"Captain.... What do we do?" – asked the vampire guard.
"I think we should give up going through this town! Let’s just go around!" – said the beastman guard.
"..."
"You are saying that there are no Red monsters in the area, is that correct?" – asked Issac as he turned towards Lucy.
"...Yeah... I’m not sensing anything right now." – replied Lucy.
"But the fact that we are not hearing anything from the town is worrying... Heck! We don’t even see any guards on the top of the wall!"
"..."
"We are going back." – said Issac.
"I don’t care if this town is standing on the main road we are using, it is too risky to use that place."
"We are going-"
"!"
"Stop!" - said Lucy, alarming the entire group.
"..."
"What is it?" – asked the terrified Issac.
"...."
"What is this....?" – said Lucy as she couldn’t feel the presence of the Red monsters.... However, she could hear something thanks to her enchanted senses.
(What is this sound?) – thought alarmed Lucy.
(It is.... Fuck! I know that I’ve heard it once before! But where!) – thought Lucy as the sound started getting louder and louder.
"!"
"Wait! I also hear something now!" – said the beastman guard, alarming the other guards.... As few moments later, the remaining guards could start hearing something.
"..."
"Wait.... I know this sound." – said Lucy as few moments later, from above the city, a giant machines with wings and spinning blades attached to them alongside a one massive blade attached on the top of the machine.
The flying machines suddenly appeared as the hidden group watched in terror and confusion, before moments later the flying object flew past the hiding group.
"....Helicopters?!" – said terrified Lucy.
"But those things..."
(In the past, there were vehicles that could soar through the skies!)
(But they were destroyed!)
(Because of the war waged by the old nobles, almost every single one of those flying vehicles ended up being destroyed, leaving barely anything left.)
(And there should be only 2 settlements in whole Britan that should have them!)
(The Old London.... And-)
"The New London.... They are here?" – said Lucy, as she realized the grim truth.
"!?"
"Wait! The direction they are heading!" – said Issac as he stood up from his hiding spot.
"They are heading straight to the others!"
<<Fear.>>
<<We knew what sort of monsters lived in the New London.>>
<<We were instantly terrified and made a ran for it.>>
<<BUT WHY?!>>
<<WHY IS THE NEW LONDON HERE?!>>
<<THERE SHOULD HAD BEEN ONLY THE RED MONSTERS RIGHT NOW!>>
<<We didn’t knew why, but we didn’t had time to question.>>
<<We ran at full speed, trying to reach the convoy..... But then we started hearing it.>>
<<The sounds of the gunshots.>>
<<Fear was overwhelming us; we knew that the fight had already started.>>
<<But still! We ran! We hoped......>>
<<....>>
<<We hoped that we could at least rescue somebody.>>
<<But when we arrived.>>
<<Every single person was dead.>>
<<Adults, children, elderly.>>
<<Every single one.... Every single person that we had knew.... They were just laying there, dead.>>
<<And next to them?>>
<<The soldiers of the New London.>>
"Hm? Who is that?" – asked the soldier wearing a gas looking mask helmet and wearing a full body armor, while also being equipped with some sort of machine gun, with visible magical crystals devices fused into the weapon.
"Probably the members of this group." – said the soldier with more advance armor looking armor and weapon.
"We don’t need them; we had already secured more than enough slaves."
"Exterminate them and take these supplies."
"..."
"You.... What have you...." – said Issac in disbelieve... As he could take a look at one of choppers that had landed on the ground... A chopper with the symbol of the crown and throne.... A symbol of the New London.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE! YOU BASTARDS!" – shouted Issac.
<<Issac and the guards.... They were terrified... But at the same time, they were beyond consumed by the hatred, to the point they all ran at the soldiers of the New London.>>
<<As for me?>>
<<I just.... I just stood there.>>
<<I couldn’t.... My brain just.... I couldn’t think.... I couldn’t breathe.>>
<<...>>
<<I could see it.>>
<<I could smell it.>>
<<But.... I couldn’t move....>>
<<I just.... Couldn’t comprehend the situation that was happening.>>
<<...>>
<<And in the next moment... My face was covered in blood.>>
"...Eh?"
<<Issac and his men... They were all gunned down instantly... Their bodies were completely ripped apart.>>
<<It was.... Too sudden.... The death of the refuges and Issac.... All of it... Was out of nowhere so sudden that.... I just stopped working....>>
"Hm? There is one left." – said the New London soldier.
"Don’t care. Just shoot." – said the leader of the soldier as he aimed with his gun at Lucy.
<<My mind.... It was blank.... But the moment I saw.... Elizabeth.... Her husband.... And.... Jack.>>
<<I saw them.... All dead.>>
"A...Aaaaa......"
"Aaaaaa......"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
"?!"
"W-WHAT IS THIS?!" – shouted the soldier as Lucy unleashed a screak so loud, so powerful that all the soldier grabbed their heads in agony.
The visors in the helmets and the glass windows of the helicopters, all of them shattered one by one.
The soldiers could feel their brains straight up screaming in agony, with some of the soldiers straight up getting on their knees as they were unable to bare the pain.
"SHIT! KILL IT! KILL THAT THING!" – shouted the leader of the soldier as he aimed with his machine gun and opened fired at Lucy.... Who dodged the bullets by leaping to the side.
"...What?" – said the leader of the soldiers.... As the screams stopped... And Lucy looked directly at them.
Lucy ran straight at them, alarming the soldiers who began shooting in panic at the woman.... Who was just running in zig zag pattern, dodging the bullets... But not all of them.
However, even when the bullets did managed to land, the woman just endured the bullets... Before then quickly getting her hands on the first soldier.
She swung her fingers like a claws which dug right into the body armor wore by the soldier, before then brutally ripping out his front part of the body, which caused all of his organs to straight up spill out in the next moment.
And then the next one, and next one.
Limbs, heads and organs were flying everywhere.
One after the another, soldiers were getting destroyed on the spot.
It didn’t took Lucy even long, she was killing the fully armored soldiers with nothing but her bare body.
She wasn’t even using weapons.... No.
She didn’t even thought about using any of them, as she was ripping apart any soldier that gotten close to her.
The soldier were shooting at her.... But it was not working.
She was moving way too fast, and even if they did landed solid few shots, it straight up did nothing to weaken Lucy, neither slowing or weakening it as Lucy was roaring like a beast while the blood of the New London soldiers was raining nonstop.
"FUCKING MONSTER!" – shouted the leader of the soldier as he aimed with his machine gun and fired at Lucy, securing a headshot.... Which wasn’t a truth.
Lucy grabbed the bullet with her mouth, before then shattering it between her teethes.
"..."
"Take off.... Take it the fuck off.... TAKE IT OFF NOW!" – shouted the leader of the soldiers as he ran up to one of the helicopters, straight up abandoning his soldiers who also started running away in panic.
Lucy was straight up slaughtering the soldiers without even stopping for a moment.
One of the remaining soldiers that were still on the ground tried starting off the helicopter, but Lucy just grabbed his spine, before then ripping it out.
However, while Lucy was busy with the forces on the ground, the remaining helicopters already started taking off.
"NO!" – shouted Lucy as she grabbed the helicopter that was right next to her, straight up bending the metal tail of the vehicle with her arms, before then throwing it at the first helicopter that took off, striking down the vehicle and making it crash down.
"SHIT! RUN! RUN FOR IT! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS MONSTER!?" – shouted the terrified leader of the soldier as his helicopter managed to get off the ground already, creating some distance from the ground already that made the man hopeful.... But that hope didn’t even lasted one second, as Lucy leaped into the air and smashed right into the front of helicopter, bending it, before then grabbing the helicopter pile through the shattered window and just smashing his head right on the spot.
"YOU ARE NOT ESCAPING!"
"NON-OF YOU!"
"YOU HEAR ME?!"
"YOU ARE GOING TO FUCKING DIE!"
"YOU MOTHERFUCKING HEAR ME?!"
"YOU ARE GOING TO FUCKING DIE HERE AND TODAY!"
