-Bulgaria, Blagoevgrad's eastern entrance

As the helicopter reaches the eastern entrance of Blagoevgrad, while still in the sky, Rafael told the pilots of the helicopter to stop and to return back to home once he leave the helicopter. With that said, Rafael just plainly waltz towards the edge of the helicopter and jumps off the helicopter, with his guandao blade at rest he falls from the sky to the ground, with his stance being straight but slightly curved to reduce the impact. As he falls the excess yellow electricity arcs around him, thus making him look like a meteor crashing down to the ground and with a loud

The ground indented and destroyed, ruble flying into the sky as the ground becomes broken. After awhile, he slowly raises to his full height, as he walks out of the miniature crater, climbing and jumping over the large ruble he made due to his arrival or the ruble which is already there from the invasion.

"Damn, they really wracked the place up didn't they" as distant gun fire can be heard from within the confines of the city.

As Rafael makes his way into the city, gurgling and the wet slapping of flesh against the hard concrete floor can be heard. Rafael being of the General rank readied his guandao and having his ears open to pin point where the enemy is, and with one heavy swing the head of the adversary flies of it's head, the disgusting infected blackish-purplish blood spews out from the neck of the creature.

When Rafael turns to look at the dead body of the creature, it turned out to be an Eldritch Drone, the most basic of the infected, one can tell from the fact that this creatures are literal walking tumors in human shape, as everywhere you see on their body is pulsating with black tumors and elongated limbs and along with bloated up body parts. 

After that, Rafael turned back and readied himself as, the smell of an dead Eldritch Drone will always attract other living infected, as their blood has a distinct smell when a large amount of it is released. And Rafael did not need to wait long till the sound of many stomping and running sounds of flesh hitting against the concrete ground coming towards him, as a swarm well over hundreds flood the ruble filled streets.

Rafael seeing this spoke out "Holy molly, that's a lot of infected, oh well time to go chop chop" as he shifts his stance into a running one before he blitz through each and every one of the infected, the normal infected and the elites were all diced up into nothing but blackish-purplish mist. From any other perspective he would look like a ball of lightning going through the horde of infected and leaving them all to turn into a mist of their own blood. 

Once done, Rafael stops at the other side of the horde of what felt like a thousand strong but neither less, one by one in succession each and every infected turn into a mist of their own blood. As Rafael swings his guandao to rest on top of his shoulder and walks further into the city. When, Rafael walks further into the city, he looks up towards a destroyed tall building and crouches down. After awhile, he leapt upwards towards the tall building and landed on top of the building's rooftop, to get a bird's eye view of the destroyed city of Blagoevgrad. 

Rafael scans the area, one glaring and obvious giant of a behemoth can be seen. The 5th ranked within the Nine Calamities, The Void Swarm, a behemoth of a creature, easily dwarfing entire five stories tall buildings, with the head of a water buffalo with the ability to split it's lower jaw into two leaving a thin layer of hard skin which connects the separated lower jaw, it's entire maw is filled to the brim with teeth that look like a megalodon's all in a circular motion like a spiral, with several eyes of a blood thirsty hound, it's body resembles that of a hippopotamus but with jagged spikes protruding from within, it stands on all eight but the thing with this is that it's legs resemble that of a tarantula's with the added fact that the end of each leg ends with a spiked appendage, it also has three long tails of a lion with ends with a scorpions stinger. Another factor is it has bone like armor which has withstood nuclear weaponry.

With seeing this Rafael smiles in ecstasy of battle under his helm, as he goes into a leaping/running stance. With bright yellow electricity sparks from his lower body to his feet, as the golden circuitry starts to glow in golden power. And before even a single leaf could touch the ground, he leapt forward in a burst of electrifying might, turning into a bolt of destructive lightning that melt everything in it's way.
