Chapter 1500: Battle
The clan leader's right-hand man bowed down in agreement.
The clan leader looked at his subordinate.
The subordinate has a bald head and a very large and sturdy figure. He is completely jacked with muscles.
But his eyes looked dead.
"You are my trusted subordinate, that is why I am giving you this task. This is very important and precious for me. This will help me stabilize my power and position for the years to come.
And I want you to find them and capture them. I want you to bring those three along with all of the equipment they have on their hands. I want you to help me achieve my ambition.
The man nodded and bowed once again, before leaving.
He went out of the clan and used the public wormhole and took all of the public routes that led to the captured city.
By the time, he arrived there, nothing was left.
The city is as bare as a carcass feasted by vultures. There is not a single lifeform in the surroundings. Of course, the desert that was described by the elite team has disappeared long ago.
The spiritual energy started recovering bit by bit after the time the carriers are removed.
The man entered the city and wanted to investigate it. But as soon as he stepped inside the city, he sensed something.
He jumped forward and rolled into a house.
*BOOM*
A spear landed on his previous location with an explosive sound that shook the surroundings.
He blankly looked in the direction the spear came from.
An old man is standing in a house not far away with a smug look on his face.
"You dumb brute. You are here.
I know that clan leaders wouldn't be sitting ducks. That greedy bastard. He is not satisfied with the clan leader's position and even craves more power.
But I won't let that happen. These kids are going to be mine and the equipment that is in their hands is also mine."
He is the grand elder that disputed with Sivan overcoming to this city.
He gritted his teeth and took out another spear before lunging forward at the man.
The man stayed calm and threw a fist at the old man's spear.
The air compressed itself into a shield at the edge of the fist before it blocked the spear point coming at him.
The old man stepped back in a hurry as soon as he felt the pressure of the fist.
The clan leader's subordinate, on the other hand, didn't even budge. He still had that blank expression on his face as he made a move.
He jumped forward with his fist aimed at the old man. The old man blocked it once again with his spear and attempted to stab it.
The windshield appeared once again, the spear was unable to penetrate the shield and he was pushed back.
This time, he also felt the spear vibrating continuously and making his arms go numb.
The aftershock of the crash destroyed the house nearby and the subordinate only pushed forward without stopping.
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
One clash after another, the fist and the spear collided again and again. The shockwaves started destroying the whole area and the houses fell down into rubble.
The old man felt an overwhelming pressure as he felt the subordinate suppressing him with every move.
"How can a servant like you be the owner of such great power? You are just supposed to be some dumb brute. How did you become so strong? You low-life."
He became angrier and threw the spear away, before taking out another spear. This one is completely black with green patterns all over it. There are some snake designs on it here and there making it look like a large black spear made from the bodies of coiled snakes.
"I will kill you with this. Even if I have to use all of my strength, I will definitely kill you with this."
The old man said seriously as he bit his tongue and spilt blood on the weapon.
The green patterns on the spear turned bloodred.
"Taste this cursed spear, you bloody low life."
As he said, he gathered all of his energy into the spear and the surroundings turned chaotic. Even the spatial fabric around became tense as he lunged forward and stabbed the man.
The legs of the old man turned stiff as the muscles were extended to a whole new level. The arm muscles were torn and the robe was torn apart.
A spiritual energy storm started around him, all of it was concentrated into the spear and then into the tip and finally into the stab.
The subordinate just stood there as he looked at all of the houses that are completely destroyed and nothing was left standing within the surroundings.
Even some of the crystal rods that Watt planted are flying over the air and crashing on the ground.
*BOOM*
A huge explosive sound came as the spear made contact with the subordinate. All the debris that hovered completely fell down.
The debris and the rubble settled down.
When the dust settled though. The old man who had a grin on his face, suddenly felt his whole life turning upside down.
The subordinate is standing there with the same blank face.
The spear barely made a nick on him as it entered his chest. It didn't even go past his muscle fibres. He is as firm as a rock with barely some blood dripping from the chest and some from the mouth.
The old man who used his strongest attack that destroyed half of the city just from the preparation felt like a little kid who saw the dangers of the world for the first time.
Before he could even speak, the subordinate pulled his fist backwards and threw a punch straight into the face of the old man.
*BAM*
With a sound that felt like he hit a drum, the punch landed and the old man's jaw broke before he flew through the air and he landed far away.
The subordinate ran after him and threw another punch, sending him flying again.
This time, the old man tried his best to stand up and ran away from the subordinate into the main estate.
When he entered through the main gate though, he was stunned.
He looked at the crucified bodies of people and the two bodies that are tied back to back in front of all of the crucifixes.
He shook his head to come out of the daze and was about to run inside.
But before he could do that, the subordinate caught up and threw another punch at the back of the head of the old man.
*CRACK*
The skull-cracking sound came as the old man fell forward on the two corpses.
The subordinate was about to follow him, but as soon as the old man touched the corpses, he felt that something is off.
The two corpses that are wearing vests and filled with a large amount of energy are now thrown off of a balance that they are maintaining to keep the loaded power in check.
Now that they are gone, shit hit the ceiling.
*BOOM*
The corpses gave out an initial explosion of energy that created a wave across all of the city. Even the subordinate finally changed his expression after that.
*BOOM*
Another explosive ripple came and all of the crystal rods in the city. Some that were left untouched and some that were all over the place because of the battle also started shining brightly.
They are so bright that even the man and the old man far away could see as long as there are no obstacles between them on that brightly lit day.
Before they could make sense, the third explosion came.
*BOOM*
The massive explosion covered the whole mansion and the rest of the wave covered the whole city.
All of the rods that are in the position lit up even brighter while the ones that are not being completely destroyed.
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
A series of random explosions occurred from the rods that are not part of the formation.
Then.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM*
A massive explosion followed as all of the rods that are in the formation exploded at the same time.
The chaotic explosion was completely restricted within the city and it went on for a few seconds before it disappeared.
When the dust settled, all that was left in the spot of the city was a large crater that is over a few dozen meters deep and at the centre of it all laid, two skeletons that are barely recognizable as skeletons.
They are way too skinny to be normal skeletons. The bones are that worn off.
One of the skeletons has a massive crack on the back of its skull and the other one has its two fists balled in. The second is also a bit taller than usual and its bones are much thicker than the previous one.
