Chapter 186: The Elders (1/2)
Rex's hands are bloodied, his eyes are fierce as he looks at the Elf in front of him.
The Elf that killed the young military man got tortured back by Rex, and his body is already in a gory and bad state with no other result other than impending death.
It was a horror night,
Rex starts off by breaking all of the Elf's fingers before he chopped them off one by one,
Without any sign of empathy or mercy, Rex continued his torture by cutting off the Elf's arms and legs that left the Elf with only a body and a head.
If anyone was to see this, they will instantly throw up.
Even Rex is surprised by how he can still stay calm in this situation, it should also make him throw up but the adrenaline stops him from doing so.
”Just...Kill me...”, the Elf said softly.
In fact that his voice is so soft that it can't be heard, but Rex's hearing caught it perfectly.
He then squats in front of the Elf that is begging to be killed,
There is no use for him in this world anymore, an Elf without arms and legs can't hold onto the prideful race they ought to be.
So dying is the best course for him right now,
”Where did you kill him?”, Rex asks while grabbing the Elf's hair.
If the Elf was in a good state, he will certainly be boiling in anger when he got pulled by the hair.
In the Elf custom, their hairs are an untouchable place that they rather die than get humiliated by getting pulled by their hair.
For them, their hairs or head, in general, are their pride.
But for the Elf in front of Rex, he has no such thoughts right now.
The Elf looks to his right signaling to Rex that the corpse is in that direction, he can't point right now because he has no arms left.
Rex look to the side before he dashes there,
After looking around for a couple of minutes, he found the young military man's corpse.
His hands are cut off from his body, and there are a couple of arrows stabbed on his arm, shoulders, and eventually his heart.
Looking at this, Rex holds onto his stoic expression.
It would be rude to pity the young military man that has already died,
Rex then slashes the ground creating a big pit before he put the young military man's corpse in it, with this, he will at least be in peace.
<Bury the military man corpse 1/1>
After doing that, Rex went back before he find out that the Elf has already died.
He died due to blood loss,
Rex finds it annoying that he already died but he finally let it go, there is no use for him to torture the Elf more than he already did.
If he does that then he will fall into the psychopath category,
But still, the anger that is still boiling inside him still hasn't resided even in the slightest.
He then slowly looks at the Great Tree direction with his purple eyes, and his burning anger can be seen through his eyes.
No one will survive this night, it will be a massacre.

Meanwhile,
The Great Tree of the Elves becomes chaotic right after the loud scream of pain,
Five Elves dressed in white and green robes came out of the top hole of the Great Tree, and they are looking in a direction with a frown.
All other regular Elves also stopped when they heard the scream,
It was a scream that makes their skin crawl, and one of the Elves recognize the voice making his face drains from all colors.
One of the Elf approach the Elders and said, ”Elders, we heard the scream from that direction”
”I know! Make way! Move!”, one of the Elder Elves shouted.
The crowd of Elves is gathering while looking at the scream direction,
Although the voice sounds familiar, their bodies can't move because of another oppressing aura that comes from the scream direction.
It was akin to a powerful monster that is lurking in the shade, and they didn't dare to venture there lest they will become the monster's next meal.
The five Elders looks at each other before they started chanting,
Their hands move in a union as they create a green symbol in front of them,
”Mother Nature heed our call and provide us with security to defend our people, Wood Magic! Nature Unbreakable Shield!”
Just as they finish chanting, the green symbol got planted to the ground,
KRRKK!
BOOM!
The ground started to tremble as huge vines came out of the ground, they then wrap around each other creating a huge wall with the Elders on top of it.
”Is it the humans? This is deeper than they usually go”, one of the Elder said.
Then another added, ”I don't think it is, the aura clearly came from another Supernatural but why did they attack us?”
Just after they said that one of them sense something.
”Which race did you come from! Show yourself!”, one of the Elder shouted.
But rather than getting his answer, all he got was silence.
The normal Elves behind the vine wall becomes worried, it is not an everyday thing for the Elder to use such a powerful spell.
It shows them how threatening the Supernatural they're dealing with right now.
Rex is currently stalking them from the shade, he saw the Elders creates a huge wall from vines and it looks sturdy.
He already scans all of them and finds out only one of the Elders is mid-rank six, the others are early rank six.
For Elves, reaching rank six means they can use Nature Spirit.
It is the same as Awakened that reaches rank six, they will be able to use their assimilated spirit to boost their power.
In this state, the Awakened can't conjure the spirit power but get an enhanced boost from the presence of the spirit that assimilates with them.
Reaching mid-rank means that their body has the spirit traits,
For example, if a mid-rank six Awakened assimilate with a fire spirit then he will be able to conjure the spirit traits and lit their body in the fire.
This will not only boost their elemental attack but also protect their bodies.
