Chapter 477 Sandwell
Book 7 - A hero in a foreign land
---
"BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!"
A massive blast echoed as another wave crashed down, shattering everything in their path with overwhelming power. They were so massive that it was hard to describe, but their power was devastating and spread everywhere.
Several coastal cities were close to the Endless Ocean, but now every single one was gone under the might of those hundreds of thousands of meters tall waves.@@@@
Luckily, people had already begun to evacuate as they saw the ocean pulling back, and they all assembled in the largest city with the greatest defenses near their location, known as Ocean Gem City.
There was a man on top of the Ocean Gem City's walls. He was very similar to a human except for the golden lizard-like scales covering his arms and part of his chest. Of course, the man was a member of the Deus Behemoth Race named Sandwell.
Sandwell could not believe the level of destruction that he just witnessed. Many people had escaped the tsunami, and his city was now overflowing with survivors, but the man could not help but clench his fists as he thought of all those who perished.
"BOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!"
Another wave crashed on the broken cities, and right now, no single vertical structure is still standing around the coast. The level of destruction was simply overwhelming.
Luckily, it seemed that was the last one, and Sandwell noticed how the storm began to calm down. While the dark clouds still covered the sky, there were no longer lightning arcs with the power of small nuclear weapons falling from the heavens.
However, just as Sandwell thought things would finally return to peace, he heard it.
"¡Boom!" "¡Boom!" "¡Boom!" "¡Boom!"
Hundreds of explosions covered the Wave Beast horde, killing dozens of thousands of them, but their numbers were so massive that it seemed to barely make a dent. The Wave Beasts at the back trampled over the corpses of their kind and continued toward the city.
¡Again!"
Sandwell shouted, making another barrage of spells and explosive spears land on the horde, killing the ones closest to the city, but they kept advancing. And that was not the only problem since the energy pool of those Essence Cultivators was diminishing at a startling rate.
In less than five minutes, Sandwell's soldiers had already killed nearly a million Wave Beasts, but they kept marching and nearing the city wall.
Sandwell knew he could use the city walls and force field to help him face the horde, but that would put the civilians in danger, which he could not allow.
"Wave Warriors, remain inside the force field and make sure the beasts do not cross into the city. Everybody with battle power at the Wave Champion level and above, follow me. We will march forward and enter a melee battle!"
Although there was immense danger in marching toward the horde, it was the only way to diminish its numbers and handle the more serious threats so the force field could endure and people would be safe. The soldiers with Wave Champion battle power and above readied their artifacts, their faces set in grim determination.
Sandwell leaped from the city wall into the horde like a meteor, landing among a pack full of Wave Champion beasts and busting them to pieces before waving his trident. The strength behind his weapon was so immense that it cut through everything, unleashing arcs of lightning that burned thousands of beasts.
The Wave Champion soldiers also crashed into the horde in small squads, executing flawless teamwork as they shattered Wave Beasts to pieces, targeting the strongest ones.
The combined slaughter performed by Sandwell and the Wave Champions reduced the might of the horde to the point that those nearing the city walls were quickly taken care of by the Wave Warriors, allowing the protection of the civilians.
Sandwell fought at the forefront, his trident a blur of motion as every move killed dozens of Wave Champion Beasts, and arcs of lightning spread everywhere, scorching hundreds of Wave Beasts. His body and armor were so strong that none of the beasts could surpass his Astral Wave Cloak and harm him, but no matter how many he killed, more kept coming.
"ROAR!"
