Chapter 221: Fight to Your Heart’s Content
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was only when the System had finished sweeping one chalet did Fang Ning see the two topless, nearly two-meter tall big Russian men wrestle out from the large chalet in the middle.
Seeing this, Fang Ning nodded. Unless he had a figure like that, it was better not to handle those corpses…
After the two men exchanged yet another flurry of blows, the slightly smaller man opened his mouth. “Wait, Alex. I feel something off… The place is too quiet, those ghouls aren’t usually this well behaved.”
As he was speaking, his guard dropped for a split second, which promptly invited a heavy fist to his chin, courtesy of Alex. He was muddled immediately after.
“Say, I should be the Chief Grand Tutor, right?”
Valery did not retaliate, but instead hurriedly ran towards a chalet under his companion’s slightly doubtful gaze, and opened the door to look. He immediately cried out. “b.a.s.t.a.r.d, look what you did, now my ghouls got stolen by someone!”
“What? Valery, you mean to say that my position as Chief Grand Tutor is gone…”
“Cut the c.r.a.p, everything is gone! We have to start from scratch again!”
Hearing those words, Alex ran towards another chalet and opened the door to see. As expected, the inside was completely empty. Only a foul smell was left, a mark of the frightening things that used to be hidden in here.
He was just about to go check on the other chalets when Valery suddenly cried out in terror. “It’s him, that Eastern Dragon G.o.d!”
A s.h.i.+ver ran down Alex’s spine, and he turned his head to face his companion.
Valery stretched out his hand, pointing at an old fir tree. Standing beneath the tree was a young and handsome Asian man.
His silhouette was indeed that of the Eastern Dragon G.o.d. In the world of the Extraordinaires, his fame was world-renown. He was a peak Pond-level Powerhouse. If evildoers crossed paths with him, they were guaranteed death. Even the internationally renown Extraordinaire Arena like the Dark Tournament qualifiers match did not dare to invite him anymore. His might was that frightening!
They were finished! He stiffly turned his head to look at his companion. The eyes reflected the very same brand of fear.
Alex’s brain went completely white. Forget the Grand Tutor, forget the position, at that moment, all those thoughts disappeared like smoke. Right now, he only wanted to return to his warm country villa in Kiev…
He suddenly thought about the Wise Grand Tutor that was killed by a book. His combat ability had been much stronger than his own.
The next moment, he only saw a palm appear in front of his eyes.
As expected, he was only Bucket-level. One little pat was enough for him to scatter. However, that Cutlery-level Valery would be even worse off than him. He would be crushed flat…
The last thing that flashed inside Alex’s head was this relieving thought.
…
In the eastern border between Guifang and Russia, on a gra.s.sland that had just started to turn green.
Thousands of large Extraordinaire contingents were currently entrenched here and setting up camp.
With such a scale, it was not surprising that the Truth Department would be in battle array and get ready for combat. This might be the first large-scale Extraordinaire conflict occurring near China since the meteor fell. As for what consequences this would bring, it was hard to predict.
Currently, they were living in military tents. Looking at it from afar, they were arranged tier upon tier, and looked neat and orderly, giving people a sense of shock. The power signs they emitted were all above Bucket-level. If they charged into the country’s borders and wreaked havoc everywhere, who knew just what disasters they would cause…
In the largest yellow tent, were three Asians.
“Old Brother Lin, in this fight for Guifang, you are our greatest trump card. Since the Wise Grand Tutor is gone, the person with the most favorable position will get the advantage first. The distance between our base to this place is the closest. Our main opponents are the two strong Sorcerers of Russia, Valery and Alex. The former is an expert in resurrecting the dead into strong ghouls, and the latter has formidable sorcery pa.s.sed down in from his family, which is rumored to be able to go against Pond-level Powerhouses.
“From the reports that we investigated in advance, I’m afraid they are able to mobilize 6000 to 8000 ghouls, each of them ranging from above Cutlery-level up to even Basin-level. If we pit our forces against theirs, we will lose. The moment the death count on our side starts to pile up, the Extraordinaires we hired as reinforcements will undoubtedly run away and flee. It will be hard to resolve the situation.” A tall middle-aged man said.
The Clan Leader of the Jade Sword Clan, Lin Yuqing touched his long, white beard, and said with a face full of pride, “Don’t worry. With the flying swords of my three disciples, they will not be able to escape the fate of falling if they dare to use ghouls within a thousand miles around us.”
Another young and pretty girl’s face was full of admiration, “As expected of Master Lin, you’re amazing. I never thought that your ability would improve to this extent after going to China. To be able to kill the enemy within a thousand miles, is indeed a hallmark of the Celestial Kingdom, with it being well-established with a long history. Russia can only use technological weapons like sniper rifles to kill their enemies from a distance. Even the best technological weapons like missiles are too high-profile. Their effect against Extraordinaires will not be fruitful.”
Lin Yuqing chuckled, very much enjoying her compliments. His heart sighed thousands of times inwardly, for fortune and misfortune were two sides of the same coin, you never know what will happen in the future.
Not long ago, he was scared by the two Azure Mountain disciples like a disowned dog, and hid in the harsh land of Russia. He dared not return, even now.
Arriving in Siberia, in this lax land where Extraordinaires could freely cross swords, he discovered his own ability. It could be said that it was as a where he could fully utilize the scope of his abilities.
With the help of an old friend, he brought two disciples and sought refuge with a Chinese Extraordinaire organization, ‘Cloud Fog City.’
Back then, he was unable to dissuade his old friend’s reputation, and helped him fight in two battles for site resources. His jade sword was stained with blood numerous times, silently taking the heads of his enemies.
After revealing his ability, not only did he earn a great amount of their respect, his own cultivation also improved drastically, and he faintly reached the threshold of Pond-level.
Only then did he realize that if he wanted to advance in his Clan’s Jade Sword Mantra, he would have to walk the path of ma.s.sacre.
In a peaceful land like China, there was no such environment. It was no wonder that he could not improve no matter how much he tried. He even thought that it was a defect in his Mantra, but it was actually because he was walking the wrong path. He could not remain free and unfettered, but had to fearlessly and boldly acquire progress, and resolutely pour blood to succeed…
If he continued killing like this, there was hope for him to live a long life. He already vaguely felt his Life Jade Sword faintly change after drinking the fresh blood of his enemies. It was as if he could feel his opponent improving his self-const.i.tution.
At this moment, the middle-aged man opened his mouth to speak, interrupting Old Master Lin’s wandering thoughts. He said, “We should use our old technique. I have hired a group of top-notch mercenaries. They’re currently closely monitoring those two Sorcerers. The moment they make a move, history will repeat itself. They will point out their position to Old Brother Lin.”
Lin Yuqing said, “Very well. My Life Jade Sword, with my spiritual sense attached to it, will be able to find out the position of the enemy. It’ll be enough if I have a rough location. They don’t have to get to close, lest they alert the enemy.”
The middle-aged man nodded, “Old Brother is indeed amazing. According to the plan, in two days, the two sides will engage in battle in this gra.s.sland. The losers will withdraw from the conflict, and the people who are absent are automatically withdrawn. With Old Brother Lin as our trump card, we can wait with peace of mind until then, hahaha…”
… At the same time, in a broad-scale Extraordinaire camp several dozen miles away, under a hidden earth slope, a pitch black altar was currently being set up.
The altar was a two-meter high stone platform, made completely of black volcanic stone. It had a total of six stairs, and dedicated on the tallest one was a strange statue.
This statue had the head of a dog but the body of a human. It was pitch black from top to bottom, and was extremely bizarre.
At that moment, a black cat was sleeping on the second stair of the stone platform.
Below the stone platform, a Caucasian girl dressed in a long, white dress was pacing back and forth.
“Tom, I think I’ll make preparations for the summoning ceremony first. This place is very near to that Dragon G.o.d’s house…”
Black Cat Tom opened its eyes, “Maggie, you don’t have to be so anxious. That Dragon G.o.d never leaves his house. He never cared about matters outside of China… Ah, that’s not quite right either. However, if you summon one time, you will not be able to act for the following three months, it’ll be better if you leave this trump card.”
“However,” Maggie’s delicate face revealed a trace of worry, undecided. “The Seventh Messenger of Mahabrahma was suppressed by him, and even his body was lost. If he realizes that we are here, the danger is too large.”
A trace of bashfulness flashed by Tom’s face at her words. At that time, he took an oath that his body would be unharmed, but in the end, he was scared away by a Giant Eagle. It was truly a burning shame…
Luckily, Maggie never cared about trifle matters like these, so he did not feel embarra.s.sed.
Mahabrahma seemed to have consumed a large amount, and did not send a new Messenger down even until now. In order to prevent the other party from finding faults in the future, it had to seize the opportunity to strengthen its own power, and breakthrough to Grade-S as soon as possible.
After considering, it decided that Maggie did have a point in worrying, “Alright, then should start preparations for the summoning now. With the capabilities of that Demon King, if that Azure Dragon dares to appear, one finger will be enough to grind it into powder.
“However, you need to be careful of the person inside his body. When you are summoning, you must centralize all of your spiritual energy. If he takes advantage of it and slips out, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to help you suppress it. I don’t know how much disturbance he will cause. After all, he is a pervert…”
Maggie’s face paled at its words, and she said hatefully, “Don’t worry. I’ll trap that b.a.s.t.a.r.d completely. I’ll definitely not let him wreak havoc. It stole my body, and even made me a personal male secretary. I was even laughed at by that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Anderson when they found out. I’m so furious I could blow my top…”
Black Cat Tom laughed, “In fact, Anderson had done something in our favor. He killed the male secretary who was arrogant for being favored to be used as experimental material. This made him lose his mind and filled him with grief and sorrow, which gave me the opportunity to suppress him back.”
Maggie pulled her face down after hearing its words. She no longer spoke, and instead walked to the other side of the stone platform stairs and started the preparations for the summoning.
The black cat knew how to behave in delicate situations, and did not continue to dredge up her scars.
Even though it was in charge of the Balance a.s.sociation, her existence was indispensable. She was the best sign it had to dupe those white Madonnas, to cover up the true objective of its Power Balance a.s.sociation.
It stood up, stretched, and leaped up the earth slope, looking towards the huge military camp.
A strange smile flashed on its cat face, “Fight to your heart’s content, Extraordinaires. Your deaths will be the best food for the growth of Death.”
…
In just half an hour, Vigilante A already circulated the skies of the whole of Siberia and Guifang, but did not act anymore.
Fang Ning found it odd, so he opened his mouth to ask, “Sir, you pa.s.sed by a wave earlier, didn’t you act?”
The System said, “The System Map here is not open, I can’t see if they’re Yellow named or Red named. Unless they are emitting a very strong evil aura, I will have to go down and sense each and every one of them personally. It’s too inefficient, I’ll go back home first.”
Fang Ning was shocked. Indeed, it was only because a large area of the System Map in China was open, that’s why the System could move so freely.
In the past, when the System Map was not open, it never went to unfamiliar lands to farm monsters. It had to personally sense them to be able to tell if they were Red or Yellow. The efficiency was too low.
He also wondered, “According to the situation earlier, this Siberia should be tens of millions of square miles. There should be quite a number of Demon Caves around. Similarly, the evil presence should be quite thick as well.”
The System said, “That group earlier should be in battle stand-by mode, which is why they’re above ground. The other Demon Caves should be hidden underground currently, so I cannot sense them.”
Fang Ning nodded, “I see. Looks like they’re not stupid. They know that the safest place right now is underground. After all, the skies are full of satellites. They would attract attention too easily above ground. The same applies even at a desolate and uninhabited land like Siberia.”
