Chapter 476 Sang Tong Tribe (1/2)
Dumby waved casually, and souls floated above the few corpses of the familiars on the ground. Tong Ying, Tong Xiang, and Tong Ling simply fainted.
The One-Eyed Giant Demon and Tong Mo were completely sealed inside the ice mountain.
At that moment, most of the higher-ups in the Nihon District had their eyes on this battle, because the Nihon District wasn't a large landmass. Although after the Cataclysm, the Nihon District's island had become larger in size, overall, it was still only considered a large island, not a continent.
Under the condition that both the Cherry Sky God Tree and Taira No Masakado were dead, their defenses were seriously crippled, making them completely powerless against King-tier familiars. As such, the result of the battle between Gao Peng and the group of mysterious people affected their decisions greatly.
If the situation really turned into an emergency… Some of the higher-ups of the Nihon District had already made preparations to move. Other Nihon District higher-ups were pessimistic in regards to the result of this battle…
They would never have imagined that the battle would end so quickly, so fast that they couldn't even react in time. How many minutes did that take?
It seemed like it didn't even last longer than a school recess of ten minutes. The battle was over before a cigarette could finish burning.
”Why didn't he come earlier? My father is dead! It's all his fault!” In a military district in Xijing, a young man with the military rank of colonel said with red eyes, ”If he had come and helped earlier, then my father wouldn't have been on the front lines, and he wouldn't have died!” The young man tightened his fist as he slammed it on the table, clearly suffering a lot of pain.
They had just talked on the phone before his father departed. Over the phone, his father had told him in a very relaxed tone, ”I'll take you to the Huaxia region for a vacation after this mission.” He would never have thought that these words would be his father's last words to him.
The other higher-ups of the military district listened to him vent his anger in silence. The young man was Taira No Masakado's only son. It was also because of him that Taira No Masakado was among the twelve elders of the Monster Trainer League closest to the military district.
”Take him away,” said a veteran general as he shook his head and sighed.
”Lock him up and leave him to that man,” said someone else.
”You…!” Taira No Masahara glared at the person who had said that. As he raised his head, a baton hit the back of his head, knocking him unconscious.
”It's a crucial moment for the Nihon District right now. We… can't let him mess things up. It's not impossible for us to sacrifice him at the crucial moment,” said the second-in-command of the Xijing Military District.
”I concur.” The other higher-ups supported this notion.
Taira No Masakado was already dead, so even if they had owed Taira No Masakado favors in the past, they had all disappeared along with his death.
The most important point was… Taira No Masakado was killed instantly by the skill of the mysterious black hawk familiar, not even having the chance to attempt to escape, and the black hawk that killed him was killed in one shot by Gao Peng's familiar.
Just how big was the gap in their ability? The more one thought about it, the scarier it became.
The eerie and cold gale that surrounded Dumby, who had transformed into the Yin Soul Dominator, gradually subsided. Its white bones pierced through the black mist as the body of the Skeleton Dominator landed firmly on the ground. With both its hands behind its back, the dark golden crown shone, looking especially eye-catching.
The Desolate Frost Lion's white muscle moved smoothly, its sharp claws shining under the white ray of light as it clawed down powerfully.
Rumble. The ice mountain collapsed. The man and beast inside turned into pieces along with it.
”Let's go.” Gao Peng took Dumby and Desolion away from the battlefield.
The battle had been a complete accident. Gao Peng had only come to find the one who was responsible; he hadn't expected that things would develop into him lending a helping hand. Gao Peng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
As he looked at the three unconscious captives, Gao Peng pondered. Might as well let Dumby wake them up while we're still on the road.
Rambling sounds and words that Gao Peng didn't understand came out of the mouth of the three who had just woken up, but from their panicked expressions, one could easily tell what they were talking about.
