1014 Scarlet Snow Planet 2 (1/2)

He needed to choose one that suited him best and cost less than a thousand points.

His options were limited. Since Garen tends to lean towards offensive techniques, the best defense as to not defend at all. In fact, he would just have to kill his enemies and defend would be meaningless if there were no enemies attacking him.

This was his philosophy. As he had walked the path of Secret Techniques and Killing Moves, he had gotten used to its style and hence he had taken a liking for confronting his opponents directly. However, it was clear that his Killing Move wasn't strong enough from the previous battle.

It was this!

An offensive technique appeared right in front of Garen's eyes.

'Demon's Blade: Level Five Ice Series Technique. 1,000 points required.'

The techniques inside consisted of protecting and training one's body on the surface. However, in reality, these training techniques were far less inferior than the Scarlet Snow Technique's. Hence, even though it was called a technique, by definition it should be called Killing Moves. They were a set of Killing Moves.

Techniques and skills should be separated. Killing Moves with different skills would produce different results. Similarly, a sword technique with different inner qi would produce a different effect as well.

These Killing Moves could be used with the Scarlet Snow Technique at its foundation.

The Demon's Blade was a simple Killing Move used to kill people. At its strongest, it was at the level of a Resonance's New Moon. That was the pure strength after mastering the technique. However, its uniqueness wasn't its power but its ability to released three slashes consecutively within a short amount of time. Furthermore, the power and range would double with each slash. With three consecutive slashes, he could release thrice its power up to hundreds of meters. Naturally, its activation requirement was very restricted.

Garen started reading the activation requirement in detail.

It had a great strain on physical capabilities as the user would suffer an internal injury with each slash. It was the reason why those at Resonance Level didn't dare to train this Killing Moves.

Garen contacted the information system to inquire more about this sword technique. He then purchased it without hassle.

The information system showed that this technique had killed three of its Resonance Level Energy Machinists practitioner. It was because they had used two slashes within one hour, causing them to die from having too little spiritual energy left. Naturally, its' power was extremely strong.

However, Garen was very confident in his Vitality and recovery rate hence he wasn't too concerned about it.

Unfortunately, as he browsed other markings, he found out that there were unique training regimes for footwork, simple techniques which stimulate potential and techniques similar to his tyrannous days. There were even techniques in changing physical appearances and improving eyesight. Each and every powerful Killing Moves was arranged here in sequence.

”It's time to go back. It's unfortunate that I do not have many points…” Garen sighed.

However, the Demon's Blade Killing Moves should be a good pick up for him.

A few days later…

A shadow figure passed through the forest at great speed. It was a huge, red python as thick as an arm. The snake flicked its tongue non-stop as it stared coldly at a man in white robe not far away from it.

Hiss…

The sides of the red python's face swelled up and after taking in a suck, spit out thick black smoke, before rushing at great speed towards the man in the white robe.

Slash!

A bright light flashed from the sword sheathed. Black smoke enveloped the sword as it slashed towards the red python's black smoke.

In a flash, the red python was slashed in half and its blood dripped into a pool of mess. The man's invisible Energy Field shielded off the dripping blood avoiding its stain.

Garen was satisfied as he looked at the red python being cut in half.

”The Level Five Mutated Organism Red Python can be turned into a decent armguard for legs and shoulders. Its meat is delicious and provides huge health.”

”Senior brother Garen, are we going to choose this place?” Bainster appeared behind him along with Hillco. They both seemed to be on guard. Afterall, this place was designated as a terrifying zone with dangerous Level Five organisms. An insect could easily kill them both as they were just a Level Two Energy Machinist.

As both of them walked out of the forest, another two fully red Humanoid Mech appeared from behind. The Cockpit was transparent and two beautiful, female twins could be seen sitting inside them.

”We've searched the surrounding and this red python which had been killed by your highness was the last threat.” A clear voice of a woman came from within the Mech.

”Okay. We will train here then.” Garen nodded. After returning the Space Ring back to Aine, the latter then tried to gift the ring to Garen but was declined by him. After realizing that he didn't have any Pilots to protect him, she decided to gift the twin Pilots to Garen. The twin sisters were a standard Level Five Pilot. They looked young as if they were in their teens, but were actually in their twenties as they had used a life-lengthening medicine which anchored down their physical appearances. Due to the effect of the medicine, they still looked extremely young and petite.

”Little One and Little Two, please go and set up an emergency camp and draw a repellent line for the creatures,” Garen ordered.

”Understood.” The two Mechs headed out separately.

On the other hand, Bainster and Hillco both released a black dragonfly and a white snake respectively, which swiftly patrolled the surrounding area.
