"Argh!"

"Aaiiieeee!"

"OOOOHHHH!"

"KILL!"

"HAAA!"

Battle cries, dying noises, loud explosions and tons of flashing lights. This is the current scenario within Tartarus.

The sudden eruption of the Devil Emperor's Pagoda caused hoards and hoards of Imps to siege Tartarus and it's inhabitants, and the only way to stop them is by eradicating them using all means available for the residents of Tartarus.

The scene was incredibly chaotic. Just like what Henry said, there are some people who chose to fight on the front lines while the others were either sniping them from a far or making sure that not a single on gets in. At least seventy percent of the whole population of Tartarus were mobilized to help with the defense, and everyone was working hard to repel the invasion.

This event was incredibly shocking, specially for the new disciples. They were here for barely a week and they already have to face something like this.

"Damn it, I missed." Edward hissed as he aimed at another devil while preparing to shoot.

"This is rather complicated to use." Franklin murmured to himself as he fired another shot.

"And that's five! Wooohoo, I'm on a roll!" Jonathan cheered as he managed to snipe five devils in a row.

"That's 8th..." Nelson murmured as he aimed somewhere else.

"Hey! Who shot that one? That was supposed to be my 10th kill!" Michelle whined as she aimed for another spot.

"Oops, my bad. Better not say anything." Juniper whispered to himself as he killed his 15th devil. "But this is surprisingly fun, I think I might have the talent for using these things."

"This is surprisingly fun." Jason said as he shot two projectiles in quick succession, killing his 20th and 21st victims.

"Sis, how are you holding up? I just killed my 25th devil." Pyra asked in a provocative manner.

"You better step it up Sis, I just shot my 30th." Mira replied smiling without losing focus on the battlefield.

"This is a bore..." Floyd murmured as he just rapidly fire his shots, it might not look like he's aiming but he's on his 40th kill.

"Can I buy on of this for myself?" Ryan asked in a whisper as he just killed his 45th devil. "Better ask Senior Brother after this…"

*Tatatatatatata*

Ryan's expression suddenly changed as he heard shot being rapidly fired besides him. He unconsciously looked beside him and saw the glaring scene of Raven literally spraying hell below. A wry smile unknowingly found its way on his face as he thought…

'Well, at least he's enthusiastic this time. But he knew that each shot drains energy right? Isn't he afraid of running out of gas quickly? Is he even hitting anything with that or he's just scaring them off?'

Ryan of course wasn't aware that Raven was nearly approaching his 100th kill as of this moment. No, he wasn't just firing random shots in hopes of suppressing the advance of the devils or just to scare them away. Raven's accuracy remained 100% from start up until now. He never missed and all of his victims had a ten millimeter hole on the center of their forehead all the way to the back of their heads.

The scene of him raining down hell from above was certainly eye catching but due to the sheer chaos of the battlefield, he wasn't noticeable except for a few people.

Ryan was not wrong, Raven was really enthusiastic this time. He was no longer trying to keep a low profile at all, he was doing his best to kill as many Imps as he could using the construct.

The reason behind this is very simple. He wants to earn as many merit points as he possibly could. As simple as that.

Unlike most of the new disciples, Raven wasn't really terribly frightened or unnerved by sheer number of devils coming their way. It is a shocking scene, that's for sure. Akin to someone poking a hornet's nest or smoking all the ants out of their hill.

On the contrary, instead of feeling nervous, Raven was excited instead since this is an opportunity for him to amass as many Merit Points as possible. He wanted to take advantage of this event since this time, it wasn't them who's looking for a fight, the fight was coming to them. Saves him the trouble of maneuvering through the dark and gloomy plains of Devil's Cradle.

Raven wasn't worried about their safety at all, simply because Henry was here. And just like what Henry said before, Eruptions are a pretty common thing in here. Which means that they're prepared for it. Additionally, the Eruption only occurred on the first floor of the pagoda. Henry said that it only contains Imps, and in here Imps are the weakest kind of devils.

With how many experienced people there are in Tartarus, there's no way that there will be a breach. This is why Raven didn't worry about their safety.

He also didn't need to worry about running out of energy anytime soon. His energy reserves are something that only a handful of people on the same realm as him could possibly match. By the time his reserves are running dangerously low, the eruption should more or less be already settled.

Still, this is a new experience for him. The Siege Defense Construct must be an exclusive for the sect since he'd never seen anything like this before. Amidst his rapid fire shooting, he started wondering if he should buy one for himself. An attractive idea that he'll think about later…

*ROOOOOAAAAARRR!*

"Geez, that huge guy is noisy..." Raven murmured as he caught sight of the immensely large silhouette at a distance.

"Is that even considered as an Imp? How come it's so large? It's making the ten meter tall guard look like a kid in front of it." Raven commented as he saw the guard confronting the large Imp.

'Speaking of guard, that guy is as agile as a cheetah. What the heck?' Raven was bewildered as he paid attention to the clash without dropping his firing rate.

The ten meter tall guard with the obsidian colored skin and spike club was fighting against the almost twenty meter tall Imp, if that's even how others call that, but it wasn't just him. There are also other disciples who were providing assistance by limiting its movements and so on.

The guard moved impressively, not only was he swift and agile, he's also a heavy hitter. Each time he hits the Giant Imp, the area will always leave a nasty wound, causing the imp to screech in pain and bleed all over.

There are also other imps around them who were large but not as big as this one, the biggest Imp next to the one that the guard was fighting was just about his size. Those were left for other disciples to take care off and if Raven's being completely honest, he also wanted to see how he would fare against those big guys.

Unfortunately, he can't really leave his spot. In a battlefield like this, the best possible outcome is to have as less casualties as possible. Unless he was ordered to, Raven wouldn't dare to casually leave his spot and wander somewhere else, specially when Henry was literally observing them closely.

*Screech!*

"Hmm?" Raven's ears twitched as he heard that screech. His eyes momentarily narrowed before his attention snapped in alert.

He walked several paces forward and looked directly down. His eyes narrowed dangerously as he saw multiple devils crawling on the surface of the wall and were rapidly closing in on their position.

'I knew it.' Raven didn't waste anytime and started shooting the climbing bastards to keep everyone safe.

Some of his teammates saw him and was about to offer help but he refused it. He signaled them that he could handle this on his own. Although some were skeptical, none of them stepped forward and unknowingly trusted Raven to handle it alone.

To which, he beautifully did. Not only did he wiped the bastards closing in on their team, he also shot the others who were about to close in on the other teams.

After making sure that there were no sneaking devils climbing their walls, Raven targeted those who were trying to get close. He didn't bother changing spots anymore since this spot is perfect for him to see the sneaking ones sooner and shoot them before they get close.

While the rest were sniping devils from a far, Raven took care of the ones that passed through their firing range and finish them on his own. Unknowingly, his headcount skyrocketed from doing this and because he's killing them before they could reach the walls, he also kept everyone who's using the construct safe.

Raven also provided crucial cover fire for those disciples who were retreating back to the base by shooting the devils that's following them. And even though those people couldn't tell who saved them due to the chaotic scene in the battlefield, some of the supervising personnel saw this scene and remembered Raven's face.
