Chapter 478: This Path is Blocked! F*ck off!
“I think we should continue to follow him,” after a few moments of silence, that assassin who was referred to as [Demon Moon Assassin] spoke. He was more powerful compared to his peers, and his reasoning and logic were also clear. After a brief moment of pause, he continued, “Any master would have weaknesses. We are assassins and not warriors; we don’t have to fight him directly. We are good at seizing the split-second opportunities and killing enemies in one strike. There are a lot of dangers in the Mythical Palace, and it seems like the King of Chambord is trying to find something. We could follow him and keep a safe distance. If he triggers some traps, we could just ‘help’ him a little behind his back. He would be easily killed if we could utilize the existing dangers here. We don’t have to be stronger than him to kill him; we just need to spot the opportunities.”
“Oh! Haha! Great! Guys, you got to clap and praise him,” someone applauded and shouted as if he agreed with [Demon Moon Assassin]’s point of view. However, the mockery and disdain weren’t hidden in his voice.
The four assassins were all shocked.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
They all back off for four to five steps, and they turned around and got ready for battle. They knew that this person wasn’t one of them, and the fact that this person could appear beside them without getting spotted or sensed by them was terrifying.
As soon as they saw this person, they were all stunned.
Not sure when, but a blond boy who looked like he was nine to ten years old was sitting on the base of the statue. At the moment, he was wearing a set of black armor, had a bottle of wine in one of his hands, and was swinging his lower legs happily. As he smiled at them, he licked a drop of golden wine on his lips.
It was too strange for them!
“Who are you? It is not ethical to listen to others’ conversations,” Captain Modo asked as he signaled his team members not to move; after all, the appearance of such a cute boy was too bizarre.
“Listen? I’m not here to listen to your conversations!” the boy said as he patted the base of the statue that he was sitting on. With a naïve smile on his face, he added, “Who am I? Oh! I’m the person who is going to kill you.”
The tone of this young boy was very casual; if he said that he was here to bring them food with the same tone, it wouldn’t sound weird.
However, this reply was like a rumble of thunder in the four assassins’ ears. A person who could get this close to them without them noticing was already scary enough. If this boy wanted to kill them, it would be more terrifying.
……
……
After he handed all the errands to the Undead Bone Dragon, Fei hurried towards the core region in the Mythical Palace.
Currently, he was already in the level 11 region. The pressure in here was too powerful, and the air was too dense. The gravity alone could make a Three-Star Warrior not able to move. A terrifying amount of energy elements could be sensed from the two sides of the street, and it was clear that there were a ton of powerful magic traps everywhere.
Fei tightly followed the path indicated on the map, and he was able to dodge all the potential dangers.
Soon, he entered the level 12 region.
Fei had encountered a few masters in these regions. The people who could enter regions level 8 or higher were the elite exploration forces; they were all at least level 8 low-tier New Moon Elites. They all prepared well, and they were progressing at a slow speed. Except for a few unlucky ones who were trapped, the others all moved forward toward their destinations. The only thing was that their pace was way too slow compared with Fei’s.
Along the way, Fei had collected 12 Moon-Class Techniques from the various [Martial Statues]. Although they were useless to Fei, they were all great techniques that could be given to the Saint Seiyas of Chambord after some tailoring.
After Fei entered the level 13 region, he heard a series of roars and explosion noises. Then, he sensed a ton of energy surges. Fei frowned and paused his steps; if he wasn’t wrong, powerful masters were battling each other not too far away. After all, it didn’t feel like a magic trap or a killing mechanism was triggered.
The incident was occurring on Fei’s path, but he dashed forward after a short pause.
Boom!
“Who is it? This path is blocked! My master is dealing with some matters at the moment; please turn around and go back!”
Suddenly, a dash of silver wind that was as sharp as a blade shot at Fei, and two men suddenly appeared. That voice came from the person who had an arrogant expression on his face.
Fei, who was rushing forward, easily crushed that dash of wind. He paused and took a good look at these two. He realized that he didn’t know anything about them; both how they looked and how they dressed were new to Fei, and it was clear that they weren’t from Jax nor Zenit.
“I’m only passing by. I’m not interested and won’t participate in the battle,” Fei told them the truth.
He wanted to find the Mythical Altar as soon as he could, and he wasn’t interested in the conflicts between other masters. Although this Mythical Palace would be combed by many masters every time the Mythical Gate opened, it was just too big! People would find treasures that weren’t discovered by previous generations each time.
However, as soon as treasures were found, bloody battles would occur. There were no rights nor entitlements in this place as killing and robbing happened everywhere. Only the most powerful masters could become the owners of the treasures.
Even though Fei wanted peace, these two men didn’t think that way.
“F*ck off! Shut up and disappear right now!” the two men were way too arrogant.
Fei’s eyes opened wide as he was infuriated. However, he suppressed his anger; he didn’t want to waste his time and energy in meaningless battles. He tried to explain patiently, “I will repeat what I said; I won’t interfere with whatever you are doing. I’m only passing by……”
“F*ck off! You b*stard! Did you hear me? Get the f*ck out! Or I will have to kill you!” before Fei could finish, the man who was more than two meters tall roared impatiently and raised his hand. Another dash of sharp wind shot at Fei’s face.
Pia!
Fei raised his hand and broke this wind.
With a cold expression, he said slowly, “Last time! Move!”
“Yuck! Kid, are you blind? We are doing some important stuff right now; how dare you ask me to move? Who do you think you are? You know what, you don’t need to go back. I will chop your head off and show others who might come here the consequences of disobeying my words! Let’s kill him!” this man laughed and signaled his friend to kill Fei together.
These two men were only level 1 low-tier New Moon Elites, and their foundations were weak. It was clear that they got to this level by using external forces such as elixirs. However, if one had to guess their power level from their arrogant attitude, he or she might say that they were peak Full Moon Elites.
Fei shook his head and didn’t want to explain anything anymore.
Whoosh! His body turned into a dash of lightning.
He passed by those two like a shadow.
Those two men didn’t even catch Fei’s shadow with their peripheral visions, let alone reacting in time. They felt like a strong wind blew by them, and many fists dashed at them like meteors. At this moment, Fei was already more than 60 meters behind them, and he continued to rush towards the core region of the Mythical Palace.
Fei’s strikes only came at those two men after he passed them, and the attacks were so fast that they were far beyond these two men’s expectations.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
The fist marks landed on them like raindrops in a storm, and they couldn’t defend against the strikes at all. The cracking noises and the muffled beating sounds created a symphony.
These two men were frozen in mid-air as the fist marks that Fei left behind continued to cave in parts of their bodies……
Only after the 131 fist marks all landed on them, they finally fell onto the ground and collapsed. As they lied in pools of blood, they looked up with shock and fear in their eyes.
Since the confrontation wasn’t to the extreme, Fei didn’t kill them and let them live.
The battle that Fei sensed was happening 500 meters away.
Fei looked up and saw two people fighting each other aggressively on a plaza that had a fountain. It was hard to spot these two people as they were moving really fast, and their yellow and blue Warrior Energy Flames were burning vigorously. However, Fei could tell that they were either level 2 or level 3 mid-tier New Moon Elites.
On the two sides of the plaza, there were two groups of people waiting for the outcome of this battle.
