Chapter 640: Rescue
Qin Feng’s face turned grim when he saw what was happening.
These human sacrifices might have been the people the Dark Coalition kidnapped from the villages in the area. It could also be their own people that were living in their own territories.
To be frank, he knew about this incident before he was reborn.
The Human Alliance, naturally, was disgusted by this and openly criticized this action. Over a dozen B-tiers’ names were pinned on the bounty list and these poor sods were hunted wherever they went.
Some of them even got chased out of the Huaxia Alliance’s borders. And the B-tiers from the Human Alliance that were in the scene too were brought in for questioning and punished. Why did they not stop these murderers from doing what they were doing—it was because they themselves wanted to hunt the Cinderclast Golems. As such, they waited until the Dark Coalition was done with their human sacrifice offering before attacking.
Resources were scarce.
These golems were resources. And their materials were quite valuable.
As such, these people from the Human Alliance had thrown away their good conscience after realizing that they had something to gain if they simply closed one eye, for just a short moment.
And this time, Qin Feng had information about the location of the incident. And thus, he acted first and hunted the Cinderclast Golems. Things were supposed to have changed.
Yet, these Dark Coalition jerks still showed up and did things like this.
Of course, this time they were not able to bring as many human sacrifices as he remembered. Qin Feng remembered from the report that they had at least brought five thousand people to sacrifice them to the Cinder Pine.
Now, due to the limited time they had, they could not prepare that many human sacrifices.
Regardless, the number of people they were throwing down there was still obscenely enormous. Qin Feng must stop them before the horrifying history repeats itself again.
So, as soon as the Dark Coalition began their operation, Qin Feng acted right away.
Fifty people were thrown down to the Cinder Pine—their bodies were pierced through by the tree branches, killing them on the spot before the fire had even started burning their flesh. As the corpses were burning, a Cinder Flower had borne its fruit and dropped it down to the ground. New Cinderclast Golems were born one by one.
In a wink of an eye, about sixty Cinderclast Golems had appeared before everyone’s eyes. The B-tiers were overjoyed when they saw this. These human sacrifices were worth very little in their eyes. Thus, exchanging one worthless life for 5 billion was a very good deal.
“You human filth!!!”
Qin Feng bellowed out furiously as he extended his Blue Fire Wings and darted to the sky.
Of course, these B-tiers knew who he was. Their faces turned grim instantly when they saw him.
“Quick! Stop him!”
“We can’t allow him to ruin our plan!”
“Just kill him. This kid is the governor of the North Sea State. That new city was also founded by him. After killing him, we could sacrifice an entire city to these trees! That’s a whole lot of easy money for us, you know.”
They knew that the Human Alliance did not have enough manpower to handle the safety of a small backwater place like this.
With the Human Alliance retracting their apt.i.tude users from these places and rea.s.signing them to other much more dangerous areas, the Dark Coalition had more room to navigate around here. This included calling in more reinforcement.
The Dark Coalition had a lot of time on their hands after all.
“Yeah! Let’s kill him!”
“This moron came alone! What a golden opportunity!”
“This is what he gets for sticking his nose into others’ business!”
“Well, to be fair, it’s his job to come handle this place’s security.”
“Job? Only idiots would care about these stupid responsibilities!”
Thus, sixteen men leaped into the air to face Qin Feng.
“Die!!!”
The ancient warriors wielded their weapons as they leaped into the air.
“Stop them!” Qin Feng ordered.
Bai Li instantly warped to the air and whipped out a dash of silver ray.
“Teleportation!”
Whoosh Whoosh Whooos.h.!.+
Four B-tiers were teleported to the ground in an instant. They looked around and were surprised to find out that they were sent five thousand meters away from where they were. It would take them quite some time to hurry back to the scene.
Bai Li snapped her fingers and a huge silver chest appeared in the air and boxed in three apt.i.tude users.
Then, she darted in the air like the wind, taking on a dozen men. Although she was not able to stop them all at once, Bai Li did buy Qin Feng enough time to fly toward the hovercraft.
Cannon sh.e.l.ls were fired at him as he got closer.
However, in the blink of an eye, Qin Feng had vanished!
“Wha… What?! Where did he go?”
The C-tier that was piloting the hovercraft panicked when he lost his target. Cold sweat rolled down his forehead.
This man knew about how powerful Qin Feng was because he had spent some time in the area. The young man was, at first, a governor of this backwater state. Yet, after several people tried to taunt and bring trouble to his turf, these people had all suffered the consequences and were never heard of since.
And now, as seconds went by, he saw that Qin Feng was able to fight B-tiers head on. Bai Li had already slain two B-tiers in the fight too.
The poor C-tier gunner would not want to take on a fearsome enemy like this.
Now, seeing that Qin Feng had vanished into thin air, all he could do now was panic.
Then, a loud explosion could be heard from ahead.
Boom!
The bulletproof gla.s.s of the c.o.c.kpit was smashed into pieces before a silhouette zipped next to him.
It was Qin Feng!
“Aaargh!!”
The C-tier cried out in horror. He did not even have the time to pull out his weapon before the golden rune equipment slashed through his head.
Thud!
His head rolled on the floor as soon as the golden saber slashed through his neck.
Wasting no time, Qin Feng quickly ran his fingers on the c.o.c.kpit’s keys. In no time, the hovercraft started to descend to the ground.
Then, Qin Feng opened the c.o.c.kpit door to scan the entire craft with his conscious energy.
There were only five C-tiers...o...b..ard. Now that he had slain the pilot, there were only four left.
Whoos.h.!.+
Qin Feng appeared behind a C-tier like a phantom and stabbed his golden rune sabre into the man’s heart.
Then, in a quick vertical slash, he was able to hit another C-tier ancient warrior.
Crus.h.!.+
The ancient warrior’s internal energy s.h.i.+eld was crushed in an instant.
“Arggh! It’s Qin Feng!”
A C-tier cried out in fear as his internal force burst forth from his body. In under a second, green vines grew out of his body, wanting to grab Qin Feng.
Qin Feng glared at him with his conscious energy and sent a wave of flames at him. In a bat of an eye, all the vines were burned to crisp.
As the flames were still clackering in the air, Qin Feng wielded his golden rune sabre and struck like the wind. His foes were blinded by the bright flames so they could not respond properly. Not only that, even if they could respond, Qin Feng was too quick for them to fight back anyway.
Fwoos.h.!.+
An apt.i.tude user’s neck was stabbed. Then, another. And another.
Three men’s necks were stabbed by Qin Feng like a meat skewer in one hit.
The last C-tier saw that the odds were now stacked against him; so, he opted to open the craft’s door and jumped out. He was done. He was not going to lose his life fighting with this powerful governor!
Qin Feng did not bother to pursue him. Instead, he ran out of the hovercraft and climbed straight to the roof.
He took less than ten seconds to murder the c.r.a.p out of the four men in the craft. As such, the hovercraft had only flown about ten meters during the time he killed all of these men.
Qin Feng acc.u.mulated his internal energy and leaped into the air! It was a several dozen meters leap! And he landed on another hovercraft.
Then, he got to working again with great speed.
Thus, the four hovercrafts all changed course after Qin Feng had taken care of the apt.i.tude users inside.
“Heh! Qin Feng! So, you want to save these people, right? I’ll see how you’re gonna save this one!”
An ancient warrior, who came running back from afar, slashed a powerful strike at the last hovercraft that was trying to steer away from Qin Feng.
Clank!
The hovercraft was slashed in half!
