Chapter 289 The Greatest Difference Between You and Me
The silence seemed to envelop the lush forest at this time. Perhaps, it was due to the presence of the two b.l.o.o.d.y night pirate s.h.i.+ps, causing the surrounding animals to flee from this area.
Lu Ze and Lin Ling flew over to the s.h.i.+ps and looked down on the ground.
Both s.h.i.+ps were a thousand meters long, adorned with sharp ridges. There were some quite powerful weapons on there.
But now, there were holes on the sides of the s.h.i.+ps. It was as though it was struck by some energy cannon. It was even emitting black smoke at the moment.
Two trails along the forest were crushed by the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, wrecking all the trees across the land. The mark stretched out for a few kilometers up to the current position of the s.h.i.+p.
The maintenance personnel saw that Lu Ze came for them through the surveillance room. Accordingly, they went to hide.
At this moment, two hundred or so figures flew out from the s.h.i.+p. They were core martial state pirates.
They surrounded Lu Ze and Lin Ling while releasing their powerful killing intent.
Lu Ze raised a brow. “Lin Ling, did these people plan to resist?”
Lin Ling rolled her eyes. “You did see them, didn’t you?”
She then frowned. “Shouldn’t pirates be scared of death? Why do they seem to be unafraid of death?”
If they weren’t’ scared of death, they wouldn’t be pirates.
After all, one became a pirate to rob resources. If they weren’t scared of death, going to the battlefield would definitely bring a much promising future.
Lu Ze scratched his head. “Maybe, they have n.o.ble ambitions, right? For example, they could have thought that they could achieve something like eternal life for succ.u.mbing to the darkness.”
Lin Ling only gave Lu Ze a blank expression. She doesn’t even want to waste her words on him. Only strange words could come out from this guy’s mouth. She was used to it.
Then, Lin Ling’s eyes flashed. She looked around and said, “Ordinary core martial states, none of them seem to have G.o.d art.”
Lu Ze: “…”
Who gave these pirates the courage to fight them?
None of the pirates spoke. They all looked at Lu Ze and Lin Ling with cold faces as they charged over.
A green light flashed in Lu Ze’s eyes, and the wind surrounded the pirates, restraining them in a line formation.
If these guys were blade demons, Lu Ze would’ve planted them upside down.
Seeing them struggle without a sound, Lu Ze looked back at their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p on the ground.
Following this, runes could be seen in his eyes.
Green jade slas.h.!.+
Two long green jade slash blades, which were several meters in length, appeared in the air.
Screech!
The green jade slashes cut through the blood-colored s.h.i.+ps, and the s.h.i.+ps fell apart, revealing the contents in it.
The remaining people were inside. They all looked up into the air.
However, Lu Ze and Lin Ling frowned. All the people inside grinned and revealed an eerie smile.
Even the struggling core martial states stopped and looked at Lu Ze and Lin Ling with eerie smiles as well.
Lu Ze: “…”
Lu Ze’s mouth twitched. “What are you smiling about? Keep smiling, and I’ll kill
you!”
Lin Ling could not help but glare at Lu Ze. “Be more serious!”
Something was definitely wrong, but even her spirit eye couldn’t see the problem.
Then, hundreds of people spoke in unison. “Life is obscure, only death is eternal.”
The voices of hundreds of people echoed in the air, making the atmosphere extremely eerie.
Lin Ling frowned. “What’s wrong with these people?” Lu Ze observed the eyes of the pirates. He then said with uncertainty, “Collective… r.e.t.a.r.dedness?”
They were more r.e.t.a.r.ded than him.
Lin Ling: “…”
She found that she wasn’t on the same channel as Lu Ze.
Just when Lin Ling was a bit angry, a green light flashed in Lu Ze’s eyes, and wind blades struck the neck of one of the pirates.
He died without resistance. His face still carried a smile.
Subsequently, his body instantly went pale and ended up dried before turning to dust.
“This…”
Lin Ling said, “There’s some strange energy attached to them!”
The rest of the people kept looking at Lu Ze and Lin Ling with eerie smiles. “All life will eventually die, the same goes for you.”
Lu Ze nodded. “Oh, you guys seem to be right.”
A green light flashed in Lu Ze’s eyes and instantly, all the core martial state pirates were killed by him.
Immediately, their bodies turned to dust. Eerie green mists started appearing. All the trees and planets they came in contact with ended up withering.
When the wind blew, the mist dispersed.
The surrounding 10 kilometers of land transformed into the land of death.
Lin Ling frowned. “These people… seem to be long dead.” Lu Ze nodded. “They probably are. I wonder how many are behind this and whether they are humans or not.”
Lin Ling could help but raise her brows once more. “It’s probably another race?”
“They said all life will die, so they are probably an undead type of race.”
Lu Ze touched his chin.
There were other races within the human territory. Quite some friendly races came to socialize and even live in the territory.
There were also enemy races and spies.
It’s impossible to clear all the spies, but it’s pretty much impossible for enemy planetary states to come in.
Lu Ze stopped thinking and said, “We’ll go notify our seniors about this first.”
Lin Ling agreed.
Then, Lu Ze brought a large bunch of core martial state pirates and flew back.
In the air, Eldon looked at the pirates inside the blood barrier and grinned. “Oh, you want to stop my thousand levels golden blade?”
His sword rays became sharper.
Eldon waved the sword, and a few hundred sword rays fused into the sword. The sword shot out an even brighter color.
He twisted his wrist and sliced toward the blood barrier.
Screech!
The few hundred-meter long golden sword cut through the red barrier.
The barrier lasted a few seconds and then began to crack.
Eldon’s eyes flashed with coldness. “Break!”
The sword became brighter for a moment and an opening on the barrier appeared.
Rumble!!
The sword chi instantly cut the two inside in half.
The remaining three split off and kept looking at Eldon with cold faces.
Eldon was planning to continue, but when he saw how the two pirates he killed turned to dust, his eyes widened. “What is going on?”
At the same time from the mist, another confused voice said, “These pirates…”
Blood and dust flew out of the mist.
Eldon glanced at the mist and pointed at the three pirates saying coldly, “I’ll give you a chance to live. What is this?”
The three charged over again expressionlessly.
Eldon frowned. “You’re seeking death.”
His sword split off and pierced the chest of one of them.
This person also turned to dust like the other two.
However, the remaining survivors acted as though nothing happened.
Eldon disappeared. His sword swept and killed the rather strong one. A golden light flashed in his palm, and he pressed on the last remaining aperture opening state.
His hands shook, and he sealed the spirit force of the pirate but also heavily injured the pirate’s body.
At the same time, Li Qingyun carried out a heavily injured pirate.
Eldon looked at Li Qingyun. “Old Li, did you know? Our powers are similar, but there’s a great difference between you and me.”Li Qingyun glanced at Eldon. “What is it?”
Eldon grinned. “I’m more handsome.”
Li Qingyun became stunned at his words. He then sneered. “Ridiculous.”
At this moment, Lu Ze and Lin Ling came over. Lu Ze opened his mouth, and his face was a bit hesitant.
He wanted to say he was the most handsome, but he wanted to give some face to the two seniors.
He shouldn’t tell the truth.
He looked at the heavily injured aperture opening states and then asked, “Where are the other pirates?”
Li Qingyun frowned and said, “They turned to dust.”
