The Crawford's Multiverse of Madness

Chapter 82

Arriving at the exit of the school, everyone saw a decked-out stadium filled with everything Mogadorian. A battalion of five hundred Mogadorians, Mogadorian weaponry, Mogadorian hounds, and a battered Mark, tied up at the front as if a flag on display.

"Look at what you brought us, not one but three numbers, and since you're all here then the talisman protecting you all doesn't work anymore. How great... How nice. Oh! Ahh Oh, thank you for making this so nice and easy. Think of how quickly we'll finish off the rest of the planet. It's fantastic!" A Mogadorian, larger than the others, steps forward as he gave his 'thank you' speech.

Zeel was confused at the 'thank you' but just chalked it up to his daily good deeds to fill up his quota. 'For every 'one' you kill, save one' was a motto Alice suggested he follow to keep his less desirable tendencies under control. Zeel had to admit he was a bit irked by the number of Mogadorians present.

Since the speech began, Zeel had been trying to destroy the weapons but found that it depleted his power much faster. The nanites had an energy source issue, considering that vibranium and Zeelinium were no longer providing enough energy since Zeel and Alice had been using the nanites frequently.

Exhausting the energy within the nanites would result in a dormant state. Even if Zeel and Alice had more energy than needed inside their bodies, they could not transfer the energy to the nanites. The nanites could only absorb a certain threshold of energy before overloading. More unique metals were needed for an upgrade before more energy could be stored by the nanites.

Even with his energy-draining, Zeel still managed to decipher the coding mechanism on some of the Mogadorian weaponry. As soon as the speech finished, Zeel signaled John who let Sam and Sarah back off into the school.

*Boom*

Mogadorian weaponry exploded and that was the precursor to the battle: hounds were released, red flashes of light flashed all over the stadium, Mogadorian soldiers falling and running over the bodies of their once comrades. John froze briefly, this was the first time they had seen such savagery.

It was never about the savagery per se, but rather all of it occurring at one location. Zeel, Elizabeth, and Alice were much more relaxed since they had grown used to the feeling of war. The blood and strewed body parts did little to distract them as they raced into the crowd of Mogadorians.

Alice had a sword and daggers floating above her, slicing apart Mogadorians left and right, occasionally freezing them with her telekinetic domain, before blasting them off into different directions. Bernie Kozar was killing stragglers who laid in ambush within the forest. The Chimera's body morphed from snake to bird, to elephant, to an actual chimera.

Witnessing all the Mogadorians dying, some of the more cowardly Mogadorians began dashing away into the forest.

Elizabeth was disappearing and reappearing in flashes of bluish blurs, cutting down unsuspecting Mogadorians and hounds alike. Zeel was focusing on Mogadorian weaponry, constantly using his stagnation skill to freeze them.

Zeel also used his TechnoMancy to alter the direction of the cannon's shots, effectively having the cannons take out other cannons. Alice, Zeel, and Elizabeth were getting tired at an increasing rate. This was not helped by the Mogadorian weaponry weakening their legacies.

John snapped out of his momentary daze and dashed into battle also. He began using his lumen to blind Mogadorians, pulling them towards himself with telekinesis and driving his dagger through them one at a time.

*bzzzt*

A ray of light could be seen coming from the distance, prompting all the numbers present to use telekinesis on instinct. Without anyone being aware, the Mogadorian had fired a killing shot that was meant to take out not only the numbers but most of the Mogadorian forces remaining.
