Bringing the both of them back to the city, Shiro stretched her body and placed them in the medical bay.
Seeing this familiar room, Shiro couldn't help but look back at the bed that she was in while she was recovering from the loss of Isilia.
Saying nothing, Shiro shook her head and thought about something else.
"How was the training? Did they get the results that you wanted?" A voice rang out as Shiro smiled and glanced behind her. Seeing Nan Tian leaning by the door, Shiro nodded her head.
"Yeah I did. Revel seemed to be making good progress towards using Celestial Energy and Syradil obtained something outside of our expectations. We tried to let her use Divine Energy through adaptation. However, she obtained the direct opposite instead. She obtained energy similar to the fallen but she hasn't crossed the line of no return yet." Shiro explained as Nan Tian raised his eyebrows and glanced towards Syradil.
"Does that mean there's a way for her to use the corruption from becoming fallen without the risks?"
"I'm not sure about it being free of risks but so far it seems like it has no drawbacks except for the fact that it pushes the physical body to the limit." Shiro replied while scratching her head.
"Hmm… that's definitely worth looking into then." Nan Tian said while pulling out the tablet.
"But while you were training those two, I've collected some basic combat data on everyone that will be joining the raid. New moves, combos, skills and techniques are all recorded here. There's a high chance that they'll figure something out when they fight but I've pretty much collected everything now." Nan Tian shrugged as he handed the tablet to Shiro.
Receiving the tablet, Shiro started to read the information and noted everything down in her mind.
With everything being recorded here, it will definitely be more beneficial for her dad and Li Jian to lead the charge since everyone will get a buff thanks to their skills, passives and title bonuses.
As for everyone else, she can pretty much let them do whatever they want during the raid. They didn't need to be directed since there wasn't anything they needed to keep in mind. At least that's what it seems so far. They just needed to kill everything in sight.
Once she finished reading the document, Shiro handed the tablet back to Nan Tian.
"Anything that I need to adjust?" Nan Tian asked but Shiro shook her head.
"Nah everything seems pretty much sorted. I'll be training Syradil and Revel for the next few days. We should have enough time for them to reach the stage of being able to use their powers confidently. The only problem I'm worried about is Rokarn's army. They've already started invading so while we're training, they could be destroying the rest of the world. Of course, my satellites can pick them up but if I'm being honest, I'd rather try to deal with all of them before they attack." Shiro admitted as Nan Tian nodded.
"If you want, I can try to monitor them from the command centre. I should be able to get some footage of the entire Earth using your satellites." Nan Tian suggested.
Just as Shiro was about to nod, she paused and furrowed her brows.
"Hmm… no need. It seems like they're coming to us instead." Shiro said as her face was cold.
Disappearing from her spot, she appeared above Asharia. Standing just outside the barrier protecting her city, she could see tier 7 magic circles appear as portals surrounded the area.
Slowly, she could see monsters crawling out of the portals. A few of them matched the description that Syradil had provided earlier. However, there were a few that felt stronger to Shiro.
'They're probably the berserker units.' Shiro thought to herself.
One by one, they all looked towards her as Shiro snapped her finger.
"I apologise but Asharia is full right now. Feel free to come back another day or face the consequences." Shiro shouted out as another barrier appeared over the first barrier.
Seeing that none of them replied and continued to walk towards her, Shiro sighed.
"Well that's no fun. Death it is then." She said while waving her hand.
Suddenly. Thousands upon thousands of turrets appeared all around Asharia as they locked onto the closest targets.
Without hesitation, Shiro commanded all of them to fire as a wave of bullets shot out, shredding apart the Suiciders that served as their front line.
Seeing the bodies swell up and bulge, Shiro slammed her hand down, causing a third barrier to appear and expand outwards.
Once the barrier came into contact with the Suiciders that were about to explode they suddenly deflated. Neon blue energy could be seen pulsing through the hexagonal markings of the barrier, towards the centre where Asharia was located before being funnelled into the turrets, empowering their next shot.
The third barrier that pulsed out was not to block the attack but to absorb. Since the Suiciders suck in energy so that they can explode, it was essentially a more volatile nanotech mana coil that she used in most of her weapons and large constructs.
So if the theory was right, she could just redirect everything the way she wanted and they would actually be doing her a favour.
Seeing the confusion on their faces after the Suiciders didn't explode, Shiro couldn't help but chuckle before sending the second volley of bullets.
Before it could reach the next row of enemies, heavily armoured units jumped in front of them and managed to block the volley, scattering the bullets behind them.
"Hou…" Seeing that they managed to block, Shiro was rather impressed and snapped her fingers.
Upgrading the guns ever so slightly so that Shiro could test out how much they could defend against, she fired the third volley, then the fourth, fifth and so on.
It wasn't that the enemy didn't try to fight back, but all the attacks that they shot towards Shiro would be weakened then blocked. Weakened because they were in her Territory and blocked by her barriers.
Since they were fighting near Asharia, all of the units were weakened by roughly 50% overall.
With them not even being able to muster up 50% of their combat power, it was only natural that Shiro could dominate them easily.
Of course, even if they were at full power Shiro wouldn't be too troubled. Automating the guns to slowly increase in strength if she couldn't kill the frontline.
Watching the army getting killed easily, Shiro didn't worry too much about their suicidal nature since all of them were basically golems that serve Rokarn.
Letting the guns fight, Shiro started to analyse the portal that brought them here.
Once she got close enough, she reached out towards it but the portal disappeared.
Shutting off immediately, Shiro could see that some of the units were cut in half since they weren't able to escape in time.
Furrowing her brows, Shiro wasn't able to track it back to an origin point since there was something blocking it.
Looking around her, she could see that all of the portals were closing one after the other, as though whoever made these portals didn't want Shiro to study them.
'Do you think they made it so that it's hard for you to track it back to them? While Rokarn may control the units, someone else might control the teleport portals and other miscellaneous jobs.' Nimue asked as Shiro shrugged.
'Not sure, but I think I should clear this battlefield. With them being weakened, I have a rough idea on how each unit can be killed along with how resilient they are without being in my domain. Anyways, let's go with the satellites so that I can deal with them all quickly.' Shiro replied while clapping her hand once.
Adjusting the focusing lens of the satellites, Shiro did a quick simulation of the effects before activating the satellites.
Suddenly, hundreds of blinking lights appeared in the sky as the monsters that noticed it quickly notified the others but it was too late.
In a split second, hundreds of pillars descended from the skies, decimating the land below and anything caught in between.
Once the light settled down, only craters and burnt land remained. There was not a single sign of the units that stood there previously.
With the small invasion now pushed back, Shiro wanted to see how much EXP she got in total for that but she didn't even get a single level, never mind multiple.
Clicking her tongue in annoyance, Shiro had to admit that the EXP gain was awful for these units and that literally anything else might be faster.
Shaking her head for now, she activated one of Asharia's escape abilities and opened a portal large enough for Asharia to travel through.
Soon, no signs of this city ever being here could be seen and the area was repaired thanks to Shiro's magic.

Meanwhile, Rokarn was keeping an eye on what had just happened, didn't say a single word. He was silently contemplating his options he had.
