Mercenary Harem in Murim Novel

Chapter 133 – Massacre [2]

While Wandering Sword Saint's fight with Ning Feng resumed, causing a clash of two 8 Stars and 7 Stars martial artists, the battlefield had already begun to change.

The army was completely surrounded and cut off from any escape. Even the 7 Stars martial artist was caught in the middle, unable to move or attack.

5 brave people stood in front of Leo, all of them were Elders from the Secs that joined the war. They had a combined force of 300 martial artists behind them, and they launched a combination attack toward Leo.

"Raging Thunder!"

With a snap of his finger, a beam of lightning shot out, destroying everything in its path. It was so fast and powerful that no one could defend or avoid it.

The ground was scorched and the air was filled with a metallic smell. The earth color changed into char from the heat generated by the lightnin.

By no means was this attack weak, but it wasn't his strongest. Leo wanted to test his strength, and it was just a tiny fraction of his power.

The Elder and the rest of the army looked at Leo, their expression filled with fear and despair.

They had no hope of winning. While they managed to block the attack, they used too much Qi for it. And, there was no time for recovery.

Fighting against a 9 Stars martial artist like Leo was like fighting against a god.

They were not on the same level.

"Are you not going to attack again?" Leo asked, holding a photon sword in his hand. The blade was imbued with electricity from his thunder element, making it act like a stun gun while maintaining its function to cut and stab.

It was truly a wonderful weapon.

"Why don't you give up now? I promise you will not be hurt."

His words were not empty. Leo had no intention of hurting the enemy more than necessary. If they surrendered, he would take them as a prisoner, following the law of war he knew.

Yes, it sounded naive. However, he knew he could take them as a prisoner. Why? Because there was a side-benefit from researching Qi. With the new equipment available, it was possible to make a Qi suppressant to stop the enemy from using Qi.

Of course, it was not a permanent solution. But, it was enough to give him an advantage in this war.

"We will not surrender!"

The Elder yelled, his face red with anger and frustration. His Qi surged, and the others followed him.

"Raging Fire!"

"Wind Tornado!"

"Earth Spear!"

"Water Bubble!"

Thanks to his enhanced body that got further strengthened by Qi, he only felt a slight pain from stopping said fist. And now...

"It's my turn."

With the help of his bodysuit to concentrate his Qi around his fist, and further enhancing it by adding electricity as a spark, Leo punched back.

"Thunderbolt!"

His fist struck the large Elder's stomach, and the man flew backward, crashing against a rock, crushing it and kept going without stopping. His figure no longer could be seen, and blood was flowing from his mouth and nose.

The Elder didn't even have the time to scream or shout before he disappeared into the distance.

"You killed my brother!"

The last Elder shouted, his face red with anger. His blazing Qi was rising, and the heat around him was becoming unbearable.

"Fire Dragon First!"

A huge red dragon formed in the sky, and the Elder's power exploded. He was not just a simple 7 Stars martial artist, and Leo knew that.

He was an Elder who had trained and learned his art for a long time. He was an old tree that had grown stronger and more solid.

And now, his power was overwhelming.

The fire dragon shot down from the sky and slammed against Leo. He tried to block it, but the force and power behind it was too much. He was pushed back slightly, feeling burns in his arm. But that burnt wound was immediately healed by Nanites, and the pain was gone.

Looking at his healed fist and then toward the Elder, Leo asked calmly.

"Are you done?"

"Monste-"

Boom!

Leo shot the Elder straight in the head with a photon handgun before he could finish speaking, killing him instantly.

"No need to curse me." He smiled and shook his head, "It's not nice."

Even when he killed the Elder, the war hadn't finished yet. Still, he managed to give blows to their morale level. The rest of the army looked at him, their faces pale and their hearts trembling with fear.

Grinning like a devil, Leo returned to his normal state and asked once again.

"Anyone willing to surrender?"

The answer was a barrage of attacks coming his way.

Leo sighed and returned to the battle, his power rising and his Qi surging.
