Chapter 429: Teasing?
429 Teasing?
Honda Sana did not manage to take him down even with the shock. She only managed to take one of his arms. Seeing that, Leoz immediately helped her, and before long, the last peak Martial Kings finally died. Jeanne could not help them as the last attack took almost her entire energy. Even her True Spirit Body was released.
"You…" Honda Sana wanted to utter the question of her confusion, but she realized it was not the best time to ask it. "Never mind."
"What do you want with their s.p.a.ce Rings? I am sure they have some wealth inside." Leoz asked her while narrowing his eyes.
Honda Sana simply shook her head. She would die anyway if Leoz and the others were not here. She looked at the peak Martial Kings, and she knew she did not kill any of them. "You guys can take it. I might already die without "him" knowing their plan and all of you. Besides, I am here under Lady Song Yu"s instruction, so I don"t need to take any part of the "reward" so you can take all of them."
Anna nodded and started taking their s.p.a.ce rings as well as their heads. But...
"Ah, wait a bit. Anna, give me their heads." Jeanne came to her and asked.
"What do you want?" Anna looked at her, confused but still handed the heads.
Jeanne did not say anything and grabbed the heads. After that, she retrieved all the corpses of the Martial Kings and chopped their limbs. She then used spears and such to make a good "art piece."
The others immediately looked away. Even though Anna and the others knew her characters, it was still blowing their mind when they saw this gore art piece. The limbs, body, and heads were lumped together and made a giant welcome gate.
"Jeanne, aren"t you a bit excessive?" Anna asked.
"If even you are uncomfortable, then the enemies would surely be more than that. I will bear the responsibility for this one. After all, I might not be able to join the battle." Jeanne said with a serious expression.
"..." All of them looked at each other and sighed. "Fine."
Anna and the others finally came toward the battlefield with the beautiful carving made by Jeanne. Jeanne"s presence alone was already shocking, but when they actually arrived at the battlefield and saw the condition, they dropped their jaws.
The ground was burning, the people inside were trying to escape, and such. It was complete chaos inside.
They immediately searched for Alex but were spotted by Njomo. Njomo then led them to Alex"s position.
"Alex, what is happening to them?" Anna asked him, wondering if this was also a part of the plan or not.
"Ahaha… I got pretty excited a moment ago." Alex looked away.
Anna looked at Anya to get an explanation. She only sighed and told them what happened.
…
Around two hours ago,
After clearing the scouts in the area, the people inside had realized their group.
They tried to search a way out but to no avail, so noticing Alex"s presence the supposed leader roared. "You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Who are you?!"
"Who I am is not important…" Alex shrugged while Anya called the others to gather in this place. "Anyway, you won"t get out of this place until all of you die."
"You-! Do you think you can fight 150,000 people at once? A small group like yours won"t be able to defeat us. Our Martial Kings will come soon and break this barrier from outside even if we don"t do anything."
"They won"t since they have died." Alex snorted.
"A mere 8-Star Martial Lord like you dare to claim boldly… I will give you one more chance, release this barrier at once, and I will give you a quick death." The peak Martial Lord made a smug face.
"Then, you need to get out of this place first, but even with your entire army, it is still not enough to destroy this Array Formation."
"Hmph, there is not even a rank 5 Array Master in this continent, and you think this barrier can hold us back. I will show you what it means to fight 150,000 people. Prepare the troops to attack this barrier." He ordered his deputies.
Alex just wanted to say something, but Anya had come back with the others. And when they spotted her, they shouted again. "Haha… To think there is such a Heavenly Beauty in this place. Sadly, she will be ruined soon and be used by 150,000 soldiers!"
The people behind him also drooled when they saw them. Anya did not put on her veil at the moment, and they could take a glimpse of the breathtaking face.
Alex started getting annoyed by this. He raised his hands and waved it.
"Fire Phoenix Art, First Stage. Phoenix Summon."
He just showed how annoyed he was with his action. The phoenix wanted to hit the barrier, but suddenly a portal was opened. It was Alex"s Spatial Gate, and he used it the way Maxwell used it.
"Hmph, what is that? Wait! We get a call from our leader, I will respond to him first."
Alex did not care about that and made another portal above them with the phoenix coming out of the portal. It then flew to the person who said those vulgar words to Anya and exploded, engulfing him and the others. They were taken aback by this and failed to protect themselves from this attack.
The glowing token was not incinerated by the flame and just dropped on the ground without anyone noticing.
"Wha-!"
"What is that explosion?"
"We are under attack?"
"Is the one who made the barrier attack us?"
The people started asking themselves. They had been pretty organized even after the barrier appeared because the officers immediately calmed them down. And with this attack, they began to doubt it again.
"Let us just attack the barrier and destroy it by ourselves!"
"That"s right. We can do this with our number."
"All of you calm down!"
"That"s right, don"t get provoked. As long as we wait long enough, our Martial Kings will come and release us from the outside, and we still have yet got the instruction to move."
In the riot, the officers started calming the people down again. When Alex saw this, he came up with another plan as he looked at Sherry and Kyle behind him.
"Sherry, Kyle, we are going to attack them once again but together. We will create a ruckus to wear them out." He said.
"Wuu!" "Chirp!" They nodded their heads, looking pretty fired up for this.
Alex then closed his eyes, releasing the Pure Fire inside his Phoenix Fire Seed. He did not need to hold back this time since they were going to die. The people from Heavenly Sword Sect and Rainbow Flower Sect had yet to come anyway, so he could do whatever he wanted.
Alex nodded to them and raised his hands. Sherry and Kyle also followed his movement and summoned a big fireball that turned into a phoenix.
"Fire Phoenix Art, First Stage. Phoenix Summon!"
Three Fire Phoenixes flew toward the barrier as Alex made another two portals in front of him and at the top of the barrier.
"Look, it comes again from above!"
"Destroy them!"
"We can"t let them explode on us!"
The officers immediately ordered the troops, but they did not manage to destroy them in an instant because the soldiers were still in disarray.
"Boom Boom Boom!"
It made three huge explosions, engulfing around one thousand each. Looking at this, Alex smirked.
"We will attack those phoenixes first before they explode!" They started ordering the panicking soldiers. Uniting disarray troops would be easier if they had a single threat, which was the phoenixes. With this, the people would think of attacking the phoenixes before thinking about the barrier or any confusion.
Alex took advantage of this and made another three phoenixes. However, before he sent them inside, he sent a message to Sherry and Kyle. "Follow my instruction."
Sherry and Kyle simply nodded their heads.
The phoenixes then pa.s.sed the Spatial Gate once again. However, this time, the phoenixes did not come down. Instead, they were hovering in the air. It smelled like a trap, but before the officers could stop the action. More than fifty thousand soldiers already launched their attacks while another fifty thousand followed right behind.
"Spring Jumper!"
"Wind Troopers!"
"Lightning Bolt Charge!"
…
…
The officers tried to stop them but to no avail.
"Don"t attack!"
"Stop!"
Sadly, no one knew Alex had closed the Spatial Gate in front of him and made a bigger one in front of him too, but inside of the barrier.
Alex and the others then made their Phoenixes come inside the portal once again, and around a hundred thousand people attacks also followed along. Because of their numbers, a quiet number of them had exploded because they clashed with each other, but there were still around half of them.
As soon as those attacks came inside the portal, it came out again from another gate that Alex had replaced with a new one. It then rained on the soldiers, creating many explosions and such.
[EXP+ 1000]
[EXP+ 500]
[EXP+ 3000]
[Gacha Ticket x1]
His notification immediately filled with the EXP and Gacha Tickets. He was especially happy when he saw the Gacha Tickets raining down on him. With just those people, he managed to get almost a thousand Gacha Tickets.
"How many people have I just killed?" Alex was perplexed as he looked at Anya.
"Hmm…" Anya tried to observe the battlefield, calculating their casualties, "Around twenty thousand, I guess… It is good, but an attack like this won"t be effective for the second time."
"I know." Alex nodded. "Still, it feels good when you get this many Gacha Tickets at once. After this battle, we might be able to get around two to three thousand Gacha Tickets, I guess. Maybe I will exchange a few Premium Tickets and use the rest for normal Gacha to level up you guys." Alex said.
[You have killed 27049 people in that attack, Host. Summing up with the previous attack, you have killed 32818 people. Ah, The system has been optimized since I have sorted it out. I can calculate this with the number EXP notification you get.]
"I see. If only I have mastered my s.p.a.ce Element… maybe I can teleport a very big mountain to this place and kill them all…" Alex said.
"You need more strength to even make a portal that big, Alex." Anya sighed.
"Haha… I am just joking." Alex shrugged. In fact, his portal alone was already big enough as its size was around a hundred a meter in radius.
"Maybe in the future… you might kill millions and millions of enemies, but make sure it is only enemies…" Anya murmured.
"What?" Alex did not hear it.
"Nothing." Anya shook her head and tried to change the topic, "So, what are we going to do now? Are we going to attack them again?"
"No. Cornering them too much will create an opposite effect. We will wait until the heads of Martial Kings and break their spirits in one go. As long as we kill those Martial Lords that were capable of commanding the soldiers in this chaos, we can slowly destroy them." Alex explained.
Suddenly, Letizia and a few elders from both sects came to him. They immediately dropped their jaws when they saw the riots inside the barrier. They were already shocked when they saw a gigantic barrier from afar, but this scene immediately made them dumbfounded.
"I "tease" them a little… Anyway, Anya will lead you to the designated position, and we will discuss our plan once more when our Martial Kings have arrived." Alex then flew away with the others, except Anya, who was waiting for these people to wake up from the shock.
"Thus, the end of the story…" Anya said with a smile.
They were dumbfounded that Alex had killed a fifth of them as well as making them disarray. They just shook their heads and sighed.
"Alright. Call the others as we will discuss our plan for the last time." Alex stated.
