Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
No one was able to stop Garen from going forth.
As they were in a city, high explosive bombs could not be used while small explosives were no better than snipers against Garen.
Charging ahead, Mind Reader who was in front finally stopped at a field in a small area.
Garen caught up with the man holding the laser welding machine from behind. He stared at Garen with caution.
“Don’t come over!” The man holding the laser welding machine was dressed in a formal suit. Sweating profusely, he was holding Mind Reader as hostage and looking at Garen in panic.
“Come any closer and I’ll kill him!” He tried to mean business and dangled the laser welding machine at Mind Reader’s neck, scaring the latter to paleness.
Garen left behind b.l.o.o.d.y footprints. It was unknown how many he killed on the way. He killed anyone on sight and anyone who blocked his path, no matter young, old, male or female, was taken care of.
No matter the forces behind, n.o.body was spared.
Immediately, an army of white soldiers came cras.h.i.+ng onto the field through another entrance with their weapons all aimed at Garen. Their leader wore a silver, metal helmet. Gender unknown, this person had long, silver hair and was gazing intensely at Garen.
“Military Flag of the Black Federation was killed by him!” The long, silver hair person said in a dreaded voice.
Two persons walked out from the alleyway behind Garen. They stared at Garen, and shared the same, dreaded fear in their eyes.
“Where’s the woman? Mr. Garen, we have no intention to be enemies. Our aim is that woman!” The two were from a different organization unlike Black Federation nor White Crab, nor any other countries’ forces for that matter. They were the transmigrators’ forces, an organization with the woman who protected Mind Reader as well as the snipers. The plan was that whoever protected Mind Reader would gain the most benefit. With Garen stepping into the picture, they got Military Flag to restrain and delay Garen but n.o.body expected that Military Flag and his soldiers were taken down in less than ten minutes.
Military Flag and Garen should be experts at the same level. They were elite fighters that once challenged Slayer yet it hasn’t been ten minutes that the defeat was imminent. It was like a dream.
Garen’s combat power severely caused the imbalance between forces.
Hence the remaining parties started discussions to get rid of Garen, the variable element that was a threat to all.
But unfortunately, efforts to encircle and annihilate Garen on the way ended up with the slaughtering of over a hundred elites. There weren’t any more subordinates who were willing to try as it will be suicide.
Under such circ.u.mstance, the two could only come out to talk to Garen in the hope he would give up the fight for Mind Reader.
“I don’t really care about your matters,” Garen couldn’t be bothered with these people. “I only want Mind Reader. The rest is up to you.”
He killed everybody who was in his path, regardless if they were from White Crab, Black Federation or even this secret organization. Mind Reader was a key element for him to absorb the Soul Seed Soul Power. Even if Vulture number one was to arrive, it would not pose any difference. No one could stop him from getting Mind Reader.
But now Mind Reader was being held hostage. If he was killed, then all his efforts would be in vain. He would have to head to another venue to seek the reborn Mind Reader. It would be a ma.s.sive pain in the a.s.s.
“That’s easy, hehe.” The man holding Mind Reader hostage smirked. “Honorable Sword Master, as long as you vanquish these people from White Crab and the two over there, I will release Mind Reader to you. I promise you!!”
The silver-haired person from White Crab was shaken. The person holding Mind Reader was from Black Federation. His fear was realized.
The Sword Master in this city was undefeatable unless he could get Lord Slayer over for help or else no one would be able to stop Garen.
n.o.body knew where the two mysterious forces were from, but they were definitely understaffed. Now that they were being threatened, their faces changed, looking nervous.
“Kill two parties of different forces, do you think I’m stupid?” Garen smirked.
“Too bad then. If you don’t follow suit, I will kill Mind Reader,” the man smiled coldly.
“How dare you threaten me?” Garen’s last ‘me’ word dropped sharply.
With a boom, a short sound wave sent a quake. The man holding Mind Reader was. .h.i.t. The ma.s.sive sound wave in the shape of a stick struck his head. He instantly saw stars and became sluggish.
In that split second that the man was distracted, Garen stomped his foot, exploding a pit in the cement surface. The counter force saw Garen being pushed to an extreme speed.
Bam!
Garen swept past the hostage-holder and stopped short behind Mind Reader.
Rip!!…
The hostage-holder’s body was torn apart. A large amount of blood flowed endless, dying his clothes red.
“You…!” The hostage-holder did not manage to finish his sentence as he collapsed on his back slowly.
Garen extended his arm and dabbed gently on Minder Reader who was trying to escape.
Mind Reader lost energy in his whole body, Garen carried and tucked him under his armpit and walked out.
Garen chose to leave through the same lane which he came from.
The two persons from unknown forces could only watch Garen leave with eyes wide open. They dared not make any sudden movements.
“Let’s go!” One shouted at the other. The two consciously made way for Garen to walk through before retreating swiftly.
White Crab tactfully chose to retreat at the very beginning. They were different from the rest. White Crab shared a conflict with Garen. If it was not for Garen focusing on capturing Mind Reader, they may not see the light of day again.
Garen’s combat power was far from what they had predicted, beyond anyone’s imagination.
“Lord Slayer will remember your grace,” the silver-haired person from White Crab marked his words before leaving.
“If he is displeased, he can look for me anytime.” Garen did not bother to turn back. He headed straight to where he came from. He needed to depart from here as soon as possible. He has caused quite a negative impact from his killing spree in the city, those from Vulture were already rus.h.i.+ng over to receive him.
There was even a high official of the enemy in the local Ocean Capital that could instruct the armed police to stop him. This was Slann, not any other place and the Vulture’s influence should be the largest and strongest here.
Carrying Mind Reader, Garen took large strides leaving the field.
He was quickly met with the incoming troops of special-uniformed army. A team of ten or more people charged over and encircled Garen.
Two mechanized vicious figure dashed over. Their faces changed at the first sight of Garen.
“Sir Sword Master! Please forgive us for coming late to support!!” The two got down on one knee. Both of them started knocking their heads on the ground, causing a string of banging noises and making people jump with it.
The encircling army that wanted to lock and load had now realized that the person before them was the country’s symbol of highest force, Sword Master!
They all took down their weapons.
“Late support?” Garen smiled, “No, it hasn’t been ten minutes from when it happened until now. For you to have such speed and a.s.sembly is very good. I am satisfied.”
It was true, he was telling the truth. He did not inform anyone of his trip to Ocean Capital. He quietly joined in the fight and for the local forces in Ocean Capital to react quickly under such circ.u.mstance was quite impressive.
“Thank you, sir!” Both of them gut-wrenchingly got up. The Sword Master’s reputation was quite positive among the public but quite the opposite amongst the internal personnel. Those who knew the inside story would know of Garen’s cruelty. In a short time frame of a year, Garen and his subordinates had slaughtered people by the hundreds to strengthen his position and name. Anyone who dared go against him would be wiped off by him, including the local n.o.bles who grew to ranks in a hundred years but destroyed by Garen in three days.
“From now on, all the armed forces of the city are under my instruction.” Garen gently knocked Mind Reader out cold as he said calmly to the duo on their knees.
“Yes!”
The duo answered together.
Garen nodded in satisfaction.
“Ocean Capital is still Vulture’s territory. You can’t just come and go as you please. Don’t you think you should leave something behind?”
He turned to look behind him.
“All troops to take down all soldiers hired by White Crab. Take heed of my instructions! Seal every entrance and exit of the sea and inform the navy to look out and halt any suspicious looking vessel!”
“Yes!!” The two generals responded loudly. They swiftly mobilized to another direction, taking out their mobile phones to communicate the order.
Garen took out his mobile phone to dial Double-Tailed Scorpion’s number.
“It’s time for action.”
He only said one sentence.
“Understood,” Double-Tailed Scorpion had already arranged everything.
Far away, a few black vessels were floating on the ocean surface. The fish-shaped black vessels had a white symbol on them. It was a savage-looking white skeleton.
Slann’s strongest fleet — Skeleton Sea.
Six Skeleton Sea submarines emerged. Their tops broke open and pilotless fighter jets over ten meters long each were lifted up one by one.
t.i.tter t.i.tter! Swoosh swoosh swoos.h.!.+
With sounds of taking off, the pilotless fighter jets took flight towards the direction of Ocean Capital. White shuttle-shaped missiles hung below the jets.
In a hidden s.h.i.+pyard somewhere in Ocean Capital, a s.h.i.+p disguised as a merchant s.h.i.+p slowly navigated out of the harbor, blowing its horn loudly.
White Crab’s people were disguised as regular tourists, staring at Ocean Capital from afar. They suffered a major loss this time but Lord Slayer would definitely avenge them!
But this was unrelated to Garen now. Carrying Mind reader, he got in a car prepared earlier to head to Vulture’s branch. Mind Reader was emitting an aura of ma.s.sive Soul Power. This had Garen finally understanding the core attribute of the Four Great Cornerstones.
It was a Soul Ring that was the same as his!!
