669 Territory (1/2)
Ping!
The spiderweb opened up in mid-air and instantly covered the woods. There were even small spiders that crawled out from within in a dense fashion.
”Spell?”
He stared at the old man standing across from him, and a glint flashed past his eyes instead. ”This is a magical spell system that is completely different from a Dream Master, interesting!”
”Kill him!”
The other soldiers howled and leaped forward.
Fang Yuan pushed off with his feet, and his entire body instantly retreated before suddenly switching to a forward charge. His movement was weird and contained an indescribable contradictory feeling.
Poof!
A little blood splattered, and another soldier holding a heavy sword covered his throat and collapsed.
”Did you think that I'd only hide in the darkness to launch a sneak attack?”
He laughed coldly, and with a flick of his steel sword, he instantly killed two people.
”It feels as if you're around the standard of the average soldier. Even though you're already declared as an elite within the army, it's still not enough against me!”
Fang Yuan rubbed the bloodstained long sword and suddenly moved his head to one side to avoid an arrow flying in from a crafty angle.
”You really are a Descender!” the old sorcerer shouted loudly.
”Descender? I don't know what you mean. I only know that you controlled the demon beast and attacked the village, and you even wanted to kill me! A future knight! An actual member of royalty!”
Who knows, there might be some lighting techniques in this realm that are able to record or recall partial images. Fang Yuan definitely wouldn't leave behind any evidence and instead, he reproached them with a sense of justice.
”You…”
The old sorcerer heard this sentence and instantly nearly vomited a mouthful of old blood.
An average hunter that can possess such skills? And he can confidently proclaim himself to be a member of royalty? This is totally just trying to pile up the blame on them and tarnish their reputation!
Swoosh!
While he was talking, Fang Yuan kicked out with his foot, and a rock flew through the air and directly hit the crossbowman's forehead.
With Fang Yuan's current physique, the rock that flew out was similar to an arrow, causing a large hole to instantly split open the unlucky lad's brain as he weakly collapsed.
”This type of combat power, a high-level warrior?”
The old sorcerer's eyelids rapidly twitched. He suddenly bit his teeth, and he took out a scroll from his arms and moved his palms, about to trigger massive destruction.
”Break!”
Once the scroll appeared, Fang Yuan instantly felt that the surrounding elements were beginning to tremble. Immediately, without any further thought, he jumped forward and the long sword in his hands flew out.
”Ah!”
Accompanying the howls of the old sorcerer, his entire arm was amputated, and it dropped onto the ground.
Fang Yuan had instead made use of this opportunity and dealt with the resistance of the remaining people. He slowly came to the front of the old man's head and stepped on it with his foot, causing the sorcerer to become a huge prawn that was curling up. The movement of the sorcerer's tendon and hamstring didn't stop, and he instantly letdown his only remaining hand and both leg joints.
Amidst the pain of his amputated arm, alongside the pain in his hamstring, the old sorcerer's head was filled with cold sweat.
In reality, to be able to endure it until now without fainting, he had already surpassed Fang Yuan's expectations.
”Impossible…”
And at this moment, within the old man's eyes, Fang Yuan easily detected a feeling of shock and incredulity.
”Just a simple investigation assignment, how could our small team be completely annihilated? There are a few Extraordinaries among us…”
The shock reverberated in the old man's heart while he looked at the expressionless Fang Yuan, and his entire body suddenly quivered. ”No! You cannot kill me!”
”This is self-defense for me, right? Regardless of which territory's laws we follow, it's sensible and logical.” Fang Yuan spoke slowly, ”I will act as a bandit and pass your corpses to the local feudal lord—you cannot relinquish the blame from attacking the village and carrying out a massacre, so, think of what will happen to you. Your head will be chopped off by the infuriated feudal lord and hung on the city walls, while even your family would be arrested!”
”No…”
As if he had thought of some horrifying outcome, the old sorcerer's cheeks were contorted. ”You cannot do this… I'm from the secret agency!”
”Secret agency, can you tell me about it?”
Fang Yuan let out a smile.
No matter how resolute a person was, once the bottom line was exceeded, then it was easy to commit the same mistake again.
Needless to say, the higher the position, the greater their fear of death is!
The people who were loyal and had high morals were usually average or low-class citizens, while those who are intelligent are usually the ones who act unethically and are unloyal. This is the current situation.
Indeed, after exceeding the bottom line, the old sorcerer didn't dare to give the cold shoulder, and he instantly revealed everything he knew.
Of course, in this process, Fang Yuan was extremely careful, and his magical abilities had slightly detected a small abnormality in the elements and instantly opened up a bloody hole on his body, immediately causing all of the sneaky actions from the old sorcerer to become ineffective.
…
”Secret agency? Is it an organization that specializes in monitoring Descenders from other realms and gather information about the plane?”
Fang Yuan stroked his chin. ”Their highest aspiration is to allow the Monger World to govern everything while the human race dominates the entire realm… race activists!”
