Chapter 301 Trouble
Prince Wilford's bloodline power was indisputably within the Gold Grade as it was able to finish off multiple blue mechas at one go.
But it still struggled to even critically damage white mechas, so it was a distance away from Platinum Grade.
It was also quite a distance away in terms of sheer power compared to my own combo of three bloodlines which allowed me to kill single white mechas rather easily.
But in terms of coolness and area of effect, it was definitely on par with mine.
"White Lotus Domain!" My eyes shined as I beheld the world of white frost he had created within a short instant.
"Now is definitely not the time to enjoy the beauty of artificial winter. What are you, ten?" Arabella said with a scoff. "That mothership is about to get into firing position and gather enough energy to blast everything here to smithereens! Heck with that power, he could even very definitely cause the tectonic plate to crack!"
"If you devour it, will you hibernate?" I asked Arabella.
"No. I will no longer fall into involuntary hibernation. But it would definitely lock up most of my power once more. I would need to focus them on digesting everything properly." Arabella replied.
"How much power would you be able to exert?" I asked.
"At least ten percent. Maximum fifty percent but for a short period of time." Arabella said.
"Good enough. Okay screw this shit. Devour everything! Including this mecha!" I finally decided and opted for the most drastic action.
"Hehehehe. That's more like it. Emperors cannot be wishy washy like some village mommy washing her family's clothes by the riverbank. If you want to one day rule the world, you must be decisive! Let's go!!" Arabella said excitedly and cast out every single ounce of red energy out to surround the massive donut mothership. She did not forget the mechas, of course. But they would have to wait.
Even with all of her strength focused on the mothership, it was an ambitious attempt on the part of Arabella's.
And all things considered, she did a relatively good job.
She didn't complete it in one go, and instead did it in three devastating waves.
But that was exactly what made it so much more frightfully horrifying. It was as though an invisible monster's supergiant maw was crunching on the donut, and slowly swallowed bits and pieces of it.
CRACKKK!!!!
The first wave of Arabella's power caused huge swaths of the mothership's armor to disappear.
"Whaaa-?" Princess Louisa could only gape at the heavily damaged mothership in shock.
The men were not as reserved in expressing their emotions.
"WHAT THE F***!!! WHAT MONSTROUS SECRET TECH DO YOU TWO DAMNED PRINCES HAVE?? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY MOTHERSHIPPPP?!"
"BOLLOCKS!" Princes Harris shouted. But he did not fail to capitalize on the shock that stunned his enemies slightly senseless. With an incredibly deadly burst of speed, he charged forward and easily destroyed all the remaining white mechas on the Black Drake's side.
"Save the Princess." Prince Wilford ordered calmly even as he undid his White Lotus Domain and dove towards Herto Jebil at an even more fearsome speed than Prince Harris.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
He unleashed three very quick slashes on the stunned Black Drake and very efficiently isolated his golden mecha core from the rest of the mecha.
The Black Drake's golden mecha instantly powered down.
Crack.
His right hand caught its cockpit gently lest he accidentally crushed it.
Not because he wanted to avoid injuring Herto Jebil.
But because he wanted Herto Jebil to live and experience hell on earth before he departed to the actual hell.
But that was as far as anybody got to do before the second wave struck the mothership.
CRACKKKK!!!!
The most of the donut's body disappeared during that second wave and caused countless men and women to go tumbling down from the floorless mothership.
As a very critical pawn, motherships were always, always manned by loyal and trusted soldiers.
And as such, except for a couple of spies, every single person falling to their deaths were fully on the Black Dragon's side.
Prince Wilford's and Princes Harris' lieutenants easily identified those few people from afar using their own incredible sensors and they moved to rescue them.
Just them, of course.
The remaining fell slowly down to their gruesome deaths.
Most of the Silver Legion, Light Legion and Fire Legion surrounded us and physically made a powerful barrier with their bodies.
The 'strange' creature was still at large, and these loyal warriors would be damned if any of them still had an ounce of strength and a drop of blood left in their bodies before harm fell upon their Princess.
And right when they finished getting into position, the third and final wave struck.
Poof!
And just like that, one of the critical pillars that supported the near supremacy of the Empire's army in the world disappeared into nothing.
"Retreat." Prince Wilford ordered the Legions calmly and unleashed all the heat he had collected earlier through the use of his White Lotus Domain in a vast fireball upon the area where the mothership was.
Voooshh!!!
The fireball shot upwards and continued to shoot higher and higher into the sky without hitting anything.
Voosh! Voosh! Voosh! Voosh!!
Prince Harris unleashed at least twenty smaller fireballs of his own in all directions near the mothership in an attempt to locate and hopefully destroy the 'strange creature'.
But alas for the two Princes, their attempts failed spectacularly.
And not just failed, they could definitely and distinctly feel a strange power wrap around them like an evil giant python, slowly but surely crushing their mechas.
It was Arabella giving them a heads up.
"Land. Now!" There was no hesitation in Prince Harris as he got everyone to dive down towards land at high speed.
To make it more believable, Arabella shrewdly destroyed every single blue mecha first into a puff of particles, and made their pilots scream in terror.
The white mechas easily and rapidly rescued these victims with their rapidly failing mechas.
At that moment, land was still a distance away.
Poof!
All the white mechas disappeared.
"AIYEEEEEEEEE!!!"
"DAMN YOU GOD OF DEATH!!!"
"NOOOOOOO!!!"
"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU**!!!!!!!"
The loyal and valiant soldiers of the Princes and Princess screamed like kids undergoing puberty in a terrifying haunted house.
"Uh. Arabella. Are you trying to kill them all?" I asked her curiously.
"Maybe. I am not trying really hard though, so those two Princes should still be able to rescue them. Especially the ice one." Arabella replied carelessly.
1101
"Hmmmm. I don't want to kill them all. But maybe killing a couple would be necessary to keep us out of the spotlight. It'll be more believable that way." I said thoughtfully.
"Don't worry about anything. My attempts to kill us all would already do that for us. Don't forget that you're falling along with them." Arabella chuckled.
"That's true." I said.
"Look up. The Ice God is here." Arabella said quickly.
"Ice God?" I winced at such a cool nickname going to someone that's not named Justin Whitefrost.
But as she said, Golden Light had reached us and its cockpit was open, revealing a tall and supremely handsome looking golden haired young man.
"Come." He said very calmly as though he wasn't asking us to make a highly dangerous transfer from one mecha to another during a mad dive down to the ground.
"Come along. We'll be safer with my brother!" Princess Louisa said as she grabbed my hand.
"No. My teacher's mecha will withstand all forms of attack better than that weak ass golden mecha." I said as I resisted Princess Louisa's pull and dived deep into my made up character. "You should come in here. With your other brother."
Prince Wilford simply took one look at my resolute and fearless face, and then at Princess Louisa's hand upon mind, and he probably instantly figured out the general story.
The tiniest bit of a smile brushed the edges of his lips for the briefest of moments before he returned to his mecha and reinitialized his White Lotus Domain.
But instead of freezing everything, he simply made huge slides to appear from underneath every single mecha around him, including us.
Right on cue, Arabella dissolved all the white mechas, and caused Golden Light and Golden Fire to release fearsome sounding cracks.
Seconds later, everyone of us were screaming with exhilaration down massive ice slides which led us all the way down to the frozen ground.
All except the two Princes, who were frowning deeply at the strange developments.
Prince Wilford was probably frowning and pondering upon what the hell was so powerful that it was able to remain fully hidden as it devoured a mothership, multiple golden mechas and a bunch of whites and blues.
Prince Harris, on the other hand, was frowning deeply as his sharp eyes zeroed in on Princess Louisa who was hugging me tightly as we slid down.
"Hohoho. That second brother looks like trouble." Arabella couldn't help but chuckle at me.
