Chapter 260: Adding fuel to the flames (2/2)
Upon receiving an order, the earth elite zombie slowly sank into the ground and disappeared before the incredulous eyes of Trunks. There was no change in the land where he disappeared, as if he were a drop of water absorbed by the soil.
“This, what is this? He, what thing is he?!” Trunks cried out in disbelief, he seemed to be unable to accept the scene that he had just witnessed.
Pointing at the little skeleton, Han Shuo smiled and explained, “The same as him.”
Upon hearing Han Shuo mention him, the little skeleton’s purple eye immediately lit up and focused on Trunks. He arrogantly waved his right hand,which grasped the bone knife, seemingly disdainful of Trunks’ ignorance.
“I see, wondrous Bryan! You truly know how to shock people!” Trunks exclaimed, then smiled wryly as he said, “No wonder both Ferguson and Edwin are looking for you!”
“This is the territory of the Rainbow Sickle mercenary band. You dared to break into this place and covet the silver mine. You really think too little of us!” Florida shouted on the other side with murderous intent as he looked coldly at Laureton.
Amongst the troops invading the valley this time, the Rainbow Sickle mercenary band had brought the most amount of people. Moreover, with the presence of his grandfather Ferguson and the Church of Light, Florida felt that his side was the most powerful. His manner naturally became more overbearing.
“Florida, do you think the Valley of Sunshine is your home just because you have your grandfather backing you?” Laureton coldly snorted as he mocked Florida.
Suddenly, the earth elite zombie appeared beneath the thick bush of ivy vines. His hands held a huge silver rock and enthusiastically ran towards Florida, giving the big rock to the latter under the crowd’s watching eyes.
“Very good, damn you! Florida, your people are blatantly exploiting the mine and simply ignoring our presence!” Seeing the situation, the head of the House of Menlo, Adam Menlo, immediately cursed out loud. He rode the super rank Golden-Winged Roc and rushed straight at Florida.
The Golden-Winged Roc was a dozen meters long. Its pair of golden wings unfurled and covered the moon that had just risen in the night sky. A sharp cry resounded as the huge wings were like sharp blades that were flapping rapidly, creating enormous gusts through the valley. The frenzied winds fiercely buffeted the Rainbow Sickle mercenaries on Florida’s side, making their sleeves flutter madly. Their bodies swayed as they couldn’t stand straight.
As the golden spear was raised, it emitted a thick murderous intent. Adam Menlo was at the forefront as he charged towards the Rainbow Sickle mercenary band. The men from the House of Menlo were riding all kinds of exotic magic creatures as they shouted and followed from behind.
“Your Church of Light will never have the chance to be arrogantly dominant in the Valley of Sunshine! Brothers, let him know who’s the strongest in the Valley of Sunshine!” Laureton suddenly roared to the sky, bursting out of his clothes. A terrifying aura exploded out of his body and his bald head shone brilliantly.
As his body sank into a berserk state, Laureton became extremely violent and impulsive. He carried the huge battle axe and was the first to rush out, leading the charge. The battle axe swept out fiercely. The boulders that he passed exploded with rumbling sounds as he charged forward with terrifying momentum.
Behind him, a group of Cairo mercenaries also went berserk. They roared and howled loudly as they rushed towards the Rainbow Sickle mercenaries like a group of mad bulls.
At the same time, the chief of the Katar orc tribe howled a few sentences in the orc language, fiercely slamming his huge totem against the ground. The ground immediately shook violently before the totem pole caused a great pit.
Several orc shamans also capered madly. Colorful lights fell one by one onto the bodies of dozens of orcs behind Katar. After being blessed by the chant, their muscles turned as hard as granite. Together, they raised their shining totem poles and advanced in a strange rhythm, howling as they rushed towards Florida.
“Who are you? Do you want to kill us all?!” Florida roared furiously at the earth elite zombie, his rage reaching its peak. He quickly chanted a spell, wanting to kill the earth elite zombie first before anything else.
It was a pity that the earth elite zombie quickly sank into the ground and had already disappeared without a trace before he even complete the spell. Florida eventually gathered a light sword to deal with Laureton, who was madly charging towards him.
Once the berserkers and orcs went berserk, Florida knew too well how difficult it would be to stop them. He understood that this battle was unavoidable. On the other hand, he had the intention of killing Laureton to begin with. He’d be killed heartlessly if he didn’t find a way to stop the latter.
The light sword shot forward as he laughed wildly. The attack had yet to reach Laureton before it shattered into tiny pieces of light. The bald berserker sprinted towards Florida with awe inspiring momentum. Boulders were sent flying in many pieces wherever he passed. The battle axe in his hand emitted a presence that could disintegrate mountains and upend the seas.
“Formidable, they truly are experts! This battle is really interesting!” Han Shuo laughed loudly and said leisurely as he looked at the other three great powers attacking the Rainbow Sickle mercenary band.
“Honored master, what do we do now?” Gilbert couldn’t help but ask with excitement when he saw the chaotic scenes.
“Trunks, send out the signal and have our brothers come over. These people who want to fight, let them fight. You guys go harvest the mine, I will keep watch out here.” Han Shuo hastily told Trunks when he saw the scene of extreme chaos in the valley.
“But the mine entrance is right where they are fighting! Since they’ve blocked the place, whoever tries to go inside will meet with a bad downfall. This isn’t a good idea!” Trunks smiled wryly and didn’t immediately release the signal.
“Heh heh, the secret tunnel is prepared! With the earth elite zombie here, we won’t have to go that way.” Han Shuo laughed softly. As soon as he finished those words, a tunnel appeared underneath the rock where they were hiding. The earth elite zombie stood in the middle of that tunnel and waved his hand, beckoning with a broad smile.
