329 Following The Group (1/2)
'I haven't been here for a day, and I already brought such a huge disaster upon the humans… Ahem, they sure have it hard.'
Leon quietly watched the humans battle and observed their fighting style.
”Leave the Bone Knights to me.” The group leader said strictly, leaving no room negotiation.
”Hahaha, by all means, take them, Big Brother. We know our limits. Bone Soldiers are not a problem, but Bone Knights are still a little too strong for us to handle alone. There's just too big of a jump between the two.”
”That's right, Big Brother. I ain't going to fight you over that.”
Everyone was more than happy to let the group leader handle the Bone Knights. Time was short, and they could not drag out the battle.
”Good to know.”
The battle was resumed shortly after the distance between the two sides was shortened.
The group leader was, no doubt, a powerful fighter. He easily swept the Bone Soldiers towards the others and dived straight into 5 Bone Knights.
Bang!
A Bone Knight was directly cleaved in half by the downward slash of his giant bone sword, kicking up a storm of dust from the ground.
The battle against the second group of undead was immediately thrown into full swing.
Although they were quickly surrounded and outnumbered, the human group did not feel the slightest pressure, not in the least. Rather, there was a battle-crazed look on their faces with glints of excitement.
And despite that, the battle was not disorderly but very clean and well-coordinated. They could cover each other's flanks and dish out attacks continuously like flowing water, constant and without pause.
This level of coordination could be said to have reached the epitome of perfection. The coordination brought out 100% of their battle efficiency, and they moved like a practiced choir, very well synced and harmonious.
It was clear that this kind of coordination cannot be achieved overnight but through long years of constant battles and growing familiarity.
These people were all certified warriors with great battle sense, honed through hundreds of life or death battles.
Leon's eyes flickered subtly.
If he had these kinds of people as subordinates, they would greatly aid him in his conquest when he kills his way into the Divine Realm's Four Divine Regions.
There was no use of fancy techniques and abilities. Just raw, overwhelming strength brought forth by the explosive might of their bulging muscles.
Each attack was simple, clean, and very straight to the point. One blow to fell one Bone Soldier.
Over time, Leon's interest was shifted to the Soul Weapons.
The runes on each weapon were suffused with strange powers and glowed with a whitish-blue light.
Each time the whitish-blue light contacted the undead beings, the black flame-like darkness on their body would diminish slightly and weaken the empowerment of Death Law.
It could be seen that these Soul Weapons were vital for fighting the undead forces. Without it, the undead army would indeed be undying and infallible, reviving endlessly.
Just as Water counteracts Fire and Light counteracts Darkness, Death was counteracted by Life.
Although elements of the Yang-alignment like Fire, Lightning, Light has some effects in destroying Death, it is not as effective as Life energy.
That being said, the Soul Weapon did not seem to use any of these elements to destroy the Death and Darkness Profound Energy within the Bone Soldiers and Bone Knights.
Rather than destroying the Death and Darkness Profound Energy, the Soul Weapon appeared to be absorbing them instead.
Leon noticed this subtle detail when he sensed the aura surrounding the Soul Weapon growing stronger.
”These weapons can grow stronger by hunting undead beings.” Leon softly muttered. He was pleasantly surprised by the discovery.
Half an hour later, the battle between the two sides ended.
The 100 Bone Soldiers and Bone Knights were reduced to piles of bone fragments, while the humans barely suffered a scratch.
Shortly after, the whitish-blue light coming from the Soul Weapon began to dim. Traces of Darkness Profound Energy were seen seeping out from the weapons and flowing back into the humans.
”What?”
Leon widened his eyes.
After being surprised for a moment, he quickly recovered and began to reevaluate the humans below him.
Their bodies were well built, and their complexion was on the darker side of colors. It was a similar tan to the people of the Ishaan Kingdom.
