Divine Path System

Chapter 1012 Desperate Struggle

The human mind, despite all the great wonders it imagined and built, was ultimately limited.

It's easy to imagine a bedroom. Then a house the size of ten such bedrooms. It's also possible to imagine a football stadium and put yourself in that imagination and experience that vastness. But what about an entire city? An entire country? Or even a planet?

Humans couldn't comprehend things beyond a certain scale.

They'd be sad about the unfortunate death of a young person. They'd cry for a fire in the street that killed a family. They'd mourn for the deaths of an entire street due to an irresponsible awakener's attacks. But what about the death of an entire city? Even, an entire planet?

If people were so sad about 1 death, 10 deaths, and even 100 deaths, what were their feelings about a million deaths? 100 million deaths?

Or the number of death count going up in Neptune, 3 fucking billion deaths?!

Despite being a peak level 9 psychic, even Sia couldn't comprehend such a mass scale of death. It's just beyond her.

3 Billion deaths was a lot. That much was obvious to everyone. But what's not obvious was just the death and destruction represented in those 3 billion deaths.

How many tragedies, how many orphans, how many heartbreaks? There would be a number for each of these, but they could never tell the tale of the tragedies.

Just experiencing a tiny bit of the tragedy was already taking a huge toll on Sia and Sarah.

"Stand in the squares! Give space to everyone! Hurry!"

In one of the military compounds, thousands were rushing into a large circular formation.

The soldiers that remained behind on Neptune maintained lightning walls between the masses and the teleportation formation to maintain order.

There were several doors in the lightning walls and only through these were the masses allowed to pass through.

Teleportation formations were a delicate affair and trying to teleport higher than capacity might not only kill the people involved but it might destroy the formation.

In this tough hour, the soldiers that remained behind wanted to save as many lives as possible. So, they took the tough measure of maintaining lightning walls to control the entry.

"Argh—Please, let me in—arghhh!"

Like in the past two hours, someone tried to pass through the lightning wall again and fainted.

The soldiers behind the wall didn't spare the fainted man a glance and continued to direct the masses into the formation.

"Don't spread panic." The leader of the small army group warned the people standing in the two formations and clicked a button.

The formations glowed blue and the space around them twisted. The next second, they're all gone!

Seeing this scene, the eyes of the masses outside the lightning wall burned with hope.

"In line! Get in line!" The soldiers yelled and sped up the process as fast as they could.

But unlike the people, there was no hope in their eyes.

The fifty soldiers, including the one general that chose to remain, were the ones that wanted to 'die'. They lost their families in this sudden invasion and wanted revenge.

And that's what they were going to do. But Sarah and Sia appeared and assigned them and many soldiers that were going to clash with the invading abyssals into the teleportation formations.

Originally, these formations ran out of space stones and were abandoned. But somehow, the two girls took out a heap of space stones and got the formations running.

As a result, the people fled from the abyssal army rampaging Neptune and rushed to the few teleportation formations.

Sarah and Sia remained concealed in the sky as they secretly guarded the six military compounds, housing two formations each.

A transfer occurred every minute and each transfer teleported 500 people. That's 6,000 people per minute.

The invasion began three hours ago. Their rescue operation began two hours ago. So far, they saved around 720,000 people! Nearly a million!

But the streets were filled with crowds that ran everywhere they could to escape from the hellish abyssals. From the sky, it's like packs of dense ants, moving all around. Less than a tenth of them were moving in the direction of the military compounds.

"Help!"

"Take us in!"

"Everyone in my street is dead!"

The cries in the crowd continued as they headed for the only beacon of hope in this hour of darkness.

And there were also other cries, cries of joy.

"Die! Die you pests!"

"It's a kill-for-all!"

"Your death is the new beginning!"

The abyssal soldiers roamed the streets wantonly and once they stopped any human, they killed them brutally.

Sarah and Sia used sneak attacks and killed a few abyssals that were too bloodthirsty. But they didn't dare to go overboard and kill too many abyssals which would alarm the high awakeners among the abyssals.

If a level 9 or even a level 8 visited this district, then it'd be all over!

Thankfully, Thunder King was letting his army have a 'feast' and didn't bother to clean up the cities.

That's the only reason this evacuation was even possible. But soon, all the districts would be 'cleansed' of humans and the 'abandoned' military compounds would be soon attacked.

Sia sighed deeply and focused her mind once again.

'There is a way to safety in the abandoned military compounds. Hurry there! Now!' Her voice sounded in the minds of the crowd in the streets nearby.

They all looked around in confusion before they looked at each other. And then they ran.

They ran as if there was no tomorrow because if they didn't reach safety, there would be literally no tomorrow for them.

Sarah kept her eyes closed and monitored the high awakeners in the city. They were destroying the military bases in the city. The military bases were built with strong defenses and to flatten them, even the high awakener abyssals were taking time.

​ But that time would be up soon and they'd be patrolling all the districts in the city soon.

"We don't have time." Sarah sighed.
