Chapter 356: The Most Alluring In All Of HistoryThere was no sound around. The demon descendants who specialized in sensory abilities checked the surrounding abnormalities.
Wright Green went to the clothes scattered on the ground, picked them up and smelled them. The clothes smelled of its owner"s sweat. There was no abnormality.
“There were no traces of fighting, no screams, no Qi fluctuations, no smells…” Wright Green said in a deep voice, “I would rather believe that they ran away naked together.”
“What boring American humor,” scoffed Faul Anderson.
“It"s still better than some poor country thinking about their bitter enemies all day every day.” Wright Green shrugged.
Perhaps the only one who could say something like that was this guy from America, the center of the world"s economy.
“Gentlemen, let"s not bicker now…” Eva Carpe just finished, and suddenly someone stifled a laughter beside her. She turned around and looked at Li Peiyun with a cold and serious face.
Did he just laugh? Eva Carpe frowned. “What are you laughing at?”
“I didn"t laugh,” Li Peiyun said.
“You laughed.”
“I didn"t.”
Psycho… Eva Carpe couldn"t get what was so funny about the things she said. She stopped pestering him about this meaningless topic and said, “Obviously, we are in trouble.”
Of course, everyone running around naked was impossible. There was no doubt that the people they left behind on guard were attacked and all of them were annihilated. Strangely, the people below didn"t notice the slightest abnormality. What"s more, the people above didn"t ask for help. They didn"t even have time to make any noise and died quietly.
Several of them were S-cla.s.s.
It was very frightening. Even the leaders here were not sure that they could kill so many people so silently.
“Is that the way that the Demonic Priest had killed our ancestors?” Aoki Takuya clenched the katana between his waist as he gave off a sinister murderous aura. As a well-known ninja in the demon descendants community of the island country, he had also painstakingly practiced battoujutsu. Although he was not as good as Hideki Miyamoto, with the amount of qi he had mustered, instantly killing an S-cla.s.s was no longer impossible.
The people were on guard against the unknown crisis. Their hearts were solemn, but they did not panic. With a team as powerful as themselves, even if they were to meet a Half-Step Gokudo Path it would not be impossible to win. And in the first place, the baby in that Thai woman"s arms was suspected to be a Half-Step Gokudo Path. Adding on to that was the group of top-tiered S-cla.s.s fighters from Great Demons" Alliance and that enigmatic lady Emperor who was suspected to be also a Half-Step Gokudo Path. No matter what they were about to face, they were confident it would not be too bad.
Gauss Kashub suddenly froze and looked at the bottom of the pool. “Why didn"t they come up?”
People found that the people of the Great Demons" Alliance stayed at the bottom of the pool and didn"t come up with them.
“They might be unwilling to leave without gaining anything, and are still examining the bottom of the pool,” Wright Green said.
At this time, a demon descendant specialized in hearing issued a warning. “Something is coming, over the steps…”
At the same time, all people looked at the steps and mustered their qi to prepare for the battle.
“Number? Footstep loudness? Shape?” Aoki Yui asked three questions in a row.
The sound of footsteps could reveal a lot of information. Quant.i.ty was obvious. The loudness of the footsteps and tell how heavy the creature was. And the shape can be judged from the foot sound to a certain extent. The sound of walking on two legs is different from that of walking on four legs.
That demon descendant who specialized in hearing was from the Aoki Family. Hearing that the princess had spoken, he immediately replied, “There is only one person. But I can"t hear his heartbeat”
Alone? The demon descendant was a professional. Since the unit was human, it meant that the other party was at least a human, not some terrible foreign species.
All the people in the bronze hall stared at the stairs, and no one ran to check. They were waiting for the mysterious enemy to climb up to the bronze hall.
A few minutes later, the footsteps finally became audible. All these experts could tell what the demon descendant said earlier was correct. Another moment, a figure jumped up the steps and appeared in front of everyone.
At the moment of seeing that figure, everyone held their breaths. Their hearts beat faster and their faces were red. If one were to really describe this with words, it would be to be shot by Cupid"s arrow.
That “thing” looked like one of the members of the Aoki family. With a decent appearance, it was nothing out of the ordinary. Yet, when one saw the figure, they would uncontrollably feel attracted.
Clang…
Some people"s weapons fell on the ground as they looked on, lovestruck.
Clang, clang, clang…
The sound of weapons landing rang out one after another. More than half of the people abandoned their weapons uncontrollably. Their facial expressions were dull and they stared at the figure that appeared.
Eva Carpe and others were just in a trance for a moment and soon recovered from the state of fascination. Aoki Yui turned around and saw that her second uncle who was known to be unbelievably strict and serious showed an expression of infatuation, as his eyes were glued onto that person.
“Second Uncle, Second Uncle….” Aoki Yui slapped him, and the crisp slap echoed in the empty hall.
Aoki Takuya woke up as though he was just in a dream and was covered in a cold sweat, but the whole person trembled with excitement. “That is it, that is the source of our bloodline… It is still in the Great Deities Palace.”
It must be the blood of the Aoki family that awoke the sleeping one.
This feeling was too familiar. It was not just the charm of the Aoki family. The expression on everyone"s face was all too familiar to that of Aoki Takuya. That was exactly the look on people"s faces when they were enchanted by the ladies of the Aoki Family.
This time, however, they were fascinated by this power themselves.
The traits of this ability were the same as their own ability. Firstly this ability was only inherited by ladies. It was not that the men of the Aoki family couldn"t inherit this kind of ability, but even if they do inherit the ability, it was not that effective. At most, it could add a little of their charm, and the effect they have on others was far less than that of when Aoki Family"s women were to use it.
Secondly, there was a female immunity to this charm. Take the example of Aoki Yui. She was the most skillful young expert in the Aoki family at present. Even a strong young expert like Li Peiyun, who had a firm mind, would inevitably be affected by her charm. When fighting, it would be difficult for him to be ruthless. Even if he didn"t fall in love for her, he would find her naturally likable.
But back at home, Aoki Yui was very unpopular with the girls. The girls secretly call her a fox spirit and a little b.i.t.c.h that seduced men everywhere. She was secretly hated deep down, and it was all because seduction didn"t work for women.
Almost all the women in the Aoki family had no close female friends because their friends would all be cautious of them. Some of the ladies of the Aoki family would also be on guard against each other. Although the men of the Aoki family were immune to charm powers, not all women were married internally. Nearly one-third of the women of each generation would be married to outsiders.
As a result, there would be an interesting phenomenon where the aunt guarded against the niece, and a sister guarded against her other sisters. If the father was not originally from within the family, sometimes the mother even had to guard against her daughter. The interpersonal skills within the family was a mess.
“What a powerful charm. Go get it, go get it, Yui!” The eyes of Aoki Takuya were blazing.
Not only him, but all the people on the scene were evidently greedy for that unknown humanoid creature.
The creature hadn"t been taken out yet. The ability of charming others sounded like an auxiliary power, but it"s absolutely powerful. One couldn"t underestimate anything left by an ancient demon. Demonic Priest was the best example. It seemed like this trip to the Great Deities Palace was not in vain.
“It"s no wonder that it could kill those we left behind without a sound. No one in the world can bear such charm.” Gauss Kashub launched a charge with his big sword. Crossing a distance of tens of meters in two or three steps, he jumped up and raised the big sword to the top of his head, before plunging down to cut at the walking corpse.
It raised its head and stared at Gauss Kashub in the air, speechless and defiant. At that moment, Gauss Kashub seemed to be hit by lightning, which made him see an illusion that what he was attacking was not the enemy, but the love in his life who was staring at him affectionately.
Facing the love of his life, how could he be ruthless?
The violently shaking qi around the big sword dissipated like the retreating tide. When the qi reached the creature"s head, less than half of the initial power was left and was easily blocked. A piece of tender flesh extended out of its hand that blocked the sword and quickly climbed all over the body of the sword. Before it could touch Gauss Kashub, he had already withdrawn his hand and abandoned the sword.
“No, it has too much influence on men. I-I can"t bear to attack it seriously…” Gauss Kashub retreated with a heavy face.
“That"s why men are so useless.” Eva Carpe rushed out to the battle. Two one foot long special short knives slide out of her sleeves. They were sharp and easy to swing.
She found that as long as she maintained a calm mind, she could easily be immune to the charm.
The pink flesh and blood tissue retracted in the body. It threw Kashub"s big sword, which weighed more than fifty kilograms, flying to Eva Carpe.
Eva Carpe bent over and dashed over, her quick movements making it seem like she had disappeared. The sword hit nothing but air, landing on the bronze ground with a deafening sound, with sparks flying everywhere.
When Eva Carpe reappeared, she was already behind the humanoid figure. Its head had fallen off.
The knives were specially made, and were similar to the Gurkha"s Kukris in shape. It had a heavy point and a light handle and was very suitable for slicing and chopping. Even the untrained person could easily cut off the head of an ox with it.
Eva Carpe"s sabre technique was as unpredictable as her movement technique. After cutting its head, she launched at least ten more attacks in the next three seconds, cutting off its arms, legs, and with a last slash, Eva Carpe sliced apart the torso right from the middle.
Seeing that, Aoki Yui and others were relieved. It seemed that it was not invincible. If it is as impregnable as Li Xianyu"s left hand, it would be very difficult.
Fortunately, it was not very powerful. It was trapped in the Great Deities Palace for countless years, so it was no longer at its peak strength. Or so everyone thought.
The next moment, they were slapped in the face by the reality.
The bottom half of the body that had not fallen suddenly moved and kicked without any premonition. It hit Eva Carpe"s abdomen. Obviously not expecting the attack, Eva Carpe suffered a direct hit. She was not expecting that even half the body could launch an attack, as it completely defied common sense.
Eva Carpe flew like a kite with its string broken. She dropped her two knives mid-flight and hit the wall in the distance, making a dull sound indicative of broken bones. She curled up in convulsion and lost all fighting abilities.
Members of the Carpe family turned pale and rushed to save their leader.
At this time, it had already regenerated itself. First, the two arms automatically climb over, as the flesh at the cut seemed to melt and wriggled to join back up with the body. Next, the lower body came over, automatically joining at the waist, before it finally picked up the head. Simply pressing on the neck, the flesh and blood wriggled and linked up, and the regeneration was completed.
Faull Anderson picked up an RPG. His fingers were hesitantly pressing on the trigger. It seemed that pulling the trigger was a painful choice for him. Finally, it seemed like he made up his mind as he finally pulled the trigger.
Whoos.h.!.+
The rocket shot out and left a straight smoke trail.
Faul Anderson took a few hard breaths and was sweating.
The rocket missed the target and disappeared in the field of vision. The “thing” dodged the projectile that could have blown its body to pieces and took the initiative to attack and kill the attackers.
“Everyone turn around and retreat. Don"t face it head-on,” cried the delicate voice of Aoki Yui.
Ordinary S-cla.s.s couldn"t resist its charm, and modern projectile weapons could be easily evaded, so apart from the top-tiered S-cla.s.s, it was the best choice for others to not face its charm.
Fortunately, there were many top S-cla.s.s players here, who could put up a fight.
Aoki Yui dashed forward. In the process of running, her left hand was already on the scabbard with her right hand holding the handle.
Battoujutsu!
The bright light of the katana flashed, and the blade howled as it cut through thin air.
The head flew again, like a hot knife cutting b.u.t.ter. It was effortless.
At the opening of its neck, tender red flesh and blood tissue spurted out and entangled to the head that just flew out. The head immediately returned to the position, and simultaneously its foot kicked at Aoki Yui.
Aoki Yui had been prepared. Her katana was already on guard before her stomach with her left hand supporting the blade. It was truly a masterpiece of a katana as it didn"t break and Aoki Yui was sent flying back from the impact.
Aoki Yui was like a basketball rolling on the ground as she landed. With blood gus.h.i.+ng out, she could only support her body by leaning on the katana.
They are not its opponent at all. Its strength was not at the same level. Although the opponent was not as impregnable as Li Xianyu"s left hand, it had an astounding self-healing capability. Any damage could be recovered within a few breaths.
