Caroline stepped forward and stroked the young girl's hands gently as she wore the same pained expression.
"Well?"
(... I don't know, maybe it can be cured, maybe it can't ... The injuries are too severe, this is cruel ...)
Jared turned violently.
The blackened scythe came out of his hand in a flash, spinning and tearing apart the populace who had been silenced in fear and surprise behind him, and then returned to Jared's hand once more.
"Fix her hand, definitely!"
Jared hefted his scythe and looked with a cold, emotionless gaze at the creatures they called men.
His thoughts went back to that time again. When they got the help of that person and told each other their troubles and pains, that person reacted in a way they didn't expect.
"Human?"
A sarcastic sneer appeared on the professor's face as if he had heard the world's funniest joke, and he gazed at Jared, Caroline, and their companions with that kind of playful gaze." You still claim to be human? That's a ridiculous comforting thought. Ask yourselves, where are the humans that are as weird as you are? Are the things you do, the powers you possess, human? Don't be ridiculous, monsters!" Here, the professor seemed to notice the anger of Jared and the others, but he didn't stop, only changed his position and retreated into his chair, crossing his fingers.
"Doesn't it make you feel angry? Then wouldn't it be nice to think differently?"
"A different way?"
Jared asked rhetorically, a little puzzled, as he raised his hand to look at the black runic armament on his arm, wondering just what the professor meant.
"That's right."
The professor shrank back in his chair and continued to explain to them with a sneer.
"Think about it in a different way. What is a human being? A human being is an animal that grows in nature, a part of the world. And your ability to ..."
He stretched out a finger and pointed it at the crowd in front of him.
"Your abilities are a product of nature and the world. Imagine how mankind became the masters of this world! Because the world only gave humans the ability to evolve, that's why they've been able to survive so long! But now that the world has given you special abilities, it recognizes you. You are the real human race, recognized by the world! The real human race! The other 5 billion are just monsters in human skin! An inferior race not favored by the world! Nothing more than chimpanzees abandoned by nature. Imagine what it's like to live among five billion monsters at ..., and then you won't need a reason to kill again. Go and kill as many as you can, trample those inferior races under your feet and make them fear your power!"
Although Jared and Caroline couldn't accept this argument, they had to admit that what the professor had said did have some truth to it.
"Monster! The monster is coming!!! Call out the guards!!!"
People were scattering in all directions, shouting frantically and scattering like a tidal wave.
Jared's eyes were red, he no longer cared about hiding his powers, now was the time for vengeance.
The air suddenly took on a light blue color.
It was unnatural, like a light breeze that swept through the space unnoticed.
The fleeing crowd stopped moving in an instant, mothers protecting their children, men guarding women, young people protecting the elderly, everything frozen in an instant, as if it were a freeze frame in a movie. But then the skin and muscles of those people began to tear, falling and crumbling to the ground, turning into a fragile powder under the extreme cold and disappearing in the wind. Jared reached out and brushed his hand across it, stretching it out without a care in the world and then holding it tightly. Countless buildings collapsed in an instant, and the intense shockwave mixed with the deep, bone-chilling cold drifted out, even Kula and the others couldn't help but shiver.
Then the crowd moved in.
Kylie pushed her hand forward, singing the song of the storm, dark clouds began to gather in the center of her hand, and then covered the entire city sky, huge thick thunder straight down, will be a building cracked, ignited, the earth began to tremble, strong vibration energy began to brew inside the earth's surface, condensing, waiting for the best time to burst.
Wendy sang loudly, the high sound of the song dispelled the fear in the hearts of those scattered people, so that they no longer hide, escape, but with weapons in hand, valiantly and unnecessarily to meet Jared and his hands of the black scythe. In the moment of death, the song that had been encouraging them suddenly stopped, accompanied by the fear and panic that returned to the side of the great pain that tore at the heart and lungs.
Even so, no one was more efficient in this killing than Kula.
She still had a confused look on her face as she shook, but slowly moved towards the pillar of black steel that had turned countless people into ashes, and after a few whispered chants, Kura reached out slightly to caress the surface of the column, and then let go.
White, translucent figures wailed out, like crazy butterflies swooping to every corner of the city, drilling into other people's bodies, tearing their flesh and souls, in order to give vent to their hundreds of years of anger and hatred. The whole city was like a purgatory for a while, and there were people killing each other everywhere. They laughed viciously and plunged their weapons into each other's bodies, and then fled from the people who had been hosting them in a moment of panic, and achieved their own revenge by manipulating other people. Children who used to cry loudly are transformed in a split second into grim, laughing demons who rip out the throats of their parents, or have their throats ripped out by their parents.
Kelly finished the final chant.
"Boom!!!"
The earth in an instant turned into a huge crack, emitting rolling hot lava in an instant engulfed the crowd who could not even escape in time, they screamed, cried, prayed, but everything was just a futile struggle. The original beautiful city was completely turned into a sea of fire, the flames began to relentlessly engulf the surrounding area, rolling and sweeping everything that can burn to increase their energy. White ghosts still echoed through the city, searching for those who might have survived and continuing their revenge through them.
Jared's even getting a little carried away with the killing.
When he stopped the scythe in his hand, there were silent corpses all around, not a trace of fresh life.
He looked up, with a sad expression, at the young girl in Caroline's arms.
Caroline was biting her lips tightly, gently pulling out the nails in the girl's fingers one by one, this great pain had already made the girl faint, but even so, her body still faithfully responded to how great the pain the girl was suffering. You can't use Tectonic Harmonization until you've completely removed the nails from the girl's fingers, or you'll only aggravate her pain, but if you keep going like this ...
Kula gently squatted in front of the body of the young girl, with a handkerchief to wipe the dirt and blood on her face, Wendy silent looking at the tall iron pillar in front of her, do not know what to think. Kylie, on the other hand, was mesmerized by the fiery inferno in front of her, feeling the aura of destruction and death, she seemed to have found some kind of revelation.
It's not over yet.
Jared turned and stared coldly at the fire before him.
Hundreds of black shadows emerged from them, steel creations twice the size of normal, each one carrying a heavily armed soldier who gazed at Jared with hatred and vengeance, and madness on the verge of collapse.
"You monster!!! You killed my mother!!!"
"You monster! How dare you kill my daughter!!!"
"Gina is a very kind and good kid ..."
Jared was deaf to the other man's anger, and he spoke to himself as if he were speaking to himself.
"She was always very sympathetic and understanding of our pain."
"My daughter is only three years old!!!! She just learned to call me daddy!!!"
"This city has been so peaceful, why are you destroying it!"
"I know very well that Gina would never attack anyone on her own accord."
"BUT!!!"
"BUT!!!"
"How dare you monsters ruin our peaceful lives!!!"
"How dare you assholes do this to her!!!"
"Go to hell !!!!"
"Go to hell !!!!"
Loathing, hatred, madness, death, and blood merged into one, and the horn of war was blown. Jared with a whirlwind of black scythe speed to meet the enemy in front of him, and the soldiers in the machine are not afraid of whether they will be injured by their companions, they maneuvered the machine, the only target is the young man in front of them running towards them. Facing the giant claws with sharp blades, Jared didn't retreat. The black giant scythe swung, and the steel claws clashed together, emitting a piercing scream, like the prelude to a dirge, ear-splittingly heavy. The giant mechanical device leaned back, but the driver apparently did not follow the textbook attempt to step back to maintain balance, he frantically pressed down on the joystick, attempting to use his own giant body of the device will be in front of the person crushed into a pulp.
Jared was covered by the falling constructs, and the badly wounded pilot was still yelling back.
"Leave me alone! Attack me! Kill this demon ...!!!"
The black flash of light stopped his screams, and the split piece of the construct exploded with energy, Jared jumped upwards like a lone wolf, and then stood firmly on the shoulder of another construct, the whirlwind of death took away another soldier's head, and at the same time melted his body into oblivion by the ensuing intense heat. Jared didn't look at the head hanging from the tip of his scythe for more than a moment before waving his hand over it and tossing the completely pierced piece of trash into the fire.
This is a massacre. The slain no longer needed a reason, nor did the slayer, everything was shrouded in death and hatred, and only the ultimate release could dissipate the unquenchable rage and hatred.
"Monster!!! Monster!!! Monsters!!! You won't get away with this!!!"
Jared stared at the officer-looking character in front of him, silent. His opponent's limbs had been neatly severed by him, and as the sole survivor of the Mechanical Unit, he didn't even have the means to move a single finger to manipulate his mechanical construct, all he could do was to roar wildly while inclining his head and attempting to tear at the being he hated with his teeth.
The black scythe swings up and down.
Nothing was left of it, as the viscous blood and white eyes flew up.
Jared stood quietly above the steel wreckage, silent.
Then he suddenly turned back, and the giant scythe flew past, stopping next to the neck of a man who had just jumped up from the ground, and hadn't even had time to make any movements before Jared forced him to stop. Faced with the huge blade in front of his eyes, he was obviously very afraid and couldn't stop gasping for air, and then tried to retreat backwards.
"What are you?"
Jared asked coldly, at the same time his hands unconsciously strengthened the force. The other part of the giant sickle bent over and pressed against the back of the opponent's neck, letting him clearly realize that there is no way to the sky and no door to the ground.
"Please don't do it, this lord, I mean no harm and I am not your enemy."
The young man in front of him looked panicked, but he tried to hide his fear, spreading his hands out to Jared to prove he wasn't hostile.
"I am a Gifted Warrior, and our leader - the leader of the Wings of Hope wishes to speak with you."
