Chapter 711 – Side Story 214) the Chaser (113)
214) The Chaser(113)
I looked at the head of the Zhou family, the Great King Zhou, who was being supported by the elders.
‘The Great King, the easiest opponent.’
He is the easiest opponent to deal with among the heads of the ruling families. Because his psychic ability was a [Body enhancer] Like mine, and it was a 10th level body enhancer.
The difference in level is most evident in the battles of body strengtheners.
Since the battle takes place in hand-to-hand combat, there is no big difference in combat skills. If there is not a big difference in combat skills, the match is naturally decided by the strength of the body, but as the level of the body enhancer increases, the physical ability improves accordingly, so the difference in level eventually leads to victory or defeat.
I am a level 11 body enhancer, and King Zhou is a level 10 body enhancer.
Therefore, the great king of Ju died, and even if he awoke, he could not defeat me.
“The heads of idiots have appeared.”
“This guy…”
The Great King of Zhou looked at me and squinted his eyes.
He must have realized by blocking my attack just now. That I am on a higher level than myself.
“How dare you attack me? If you had meekly kneeled down and bowed your head, you would have maintained your power. Resent your foolishness for refusing to save your life even though there is a way.”
“Don’t talk bullshit! Who do you think we are! It is we who have protected this place, Red Town! It is the city we have protected with blood and sweat! But what? Kneel down and bow your head? Get down on your knees and hold your head down.” You are the one to be humiliated! In our city, we are the law!”
Enraged by my words, the king of Judae shouted, raising blood.
“You are a loach! A loach trying to turn clear water into muddy water!”
“Every day, monsters are running out there to exterminate humans. It is we who have shed blood against such monsters every day!”
“But what are you? You are attacking us like that! You have destroyed the Dokgo and Hwang families, the breakwaters of humanity! Your goal is obvious. An absolute evil that wants to kill us all and give humanity to monsters’ food!”
“We will never lose! We will never kneel to you nor bow our heads to you!”
“Even though we belong to different groups! In our hearts, we have the pride of protecting Red Town! We are all warriors and guardians of Red Town!”
The Great King of Zhou spoke passionately. Seeing that, I laughed inwardly.
‘Look at this bastard? Is it fair?’
Among the talented people gathered here are King Ju’s subordinates, but there are also talented people from other families.
“…”
“…”
Look
The talented people who were contemplating whether or not to run away just a moment ago are glaring at me with fighting spirit.
Although they are from different affiliations, the words of King Ju just a while ago awakened the self-confidence that was dormant in them.
By defining me as absolute evil, I made the talented people gathered here risk their lives to fight me. They also have families to protect.
‘Besides, that’s not the only thing they’re aiming for.’
No matter how much I succeeded in boosting the morale of the talented people with the shout just now, it would not be my opponent.
King Ju, who recognized my level at once by receiving my fist, would know that well.
But why did he shout such a long speech?
It was to buy time for reinforcements to arrive.
He alone would not be my opponent, but if the heads of other families were included, I would have thought it was worth a try.
‘How will we do it?’
I pondered for a while.
Should I go along with the King of Zhou’s pranks or kill them all before the family heads arrive?
‘Let’s wait.’
The agony was short, and the decision was even shorter.
I decided to go along with King Ju’s pranks.
Even if the family heads gather, they can’t kill me. I haven’t revealed my power yet. Above all, when human beings have hope, they are completely broken if they feel despair.
In order for the five families to stop playing pranks like this in the future, we must plant a sense of complete despair in them.
That way I will never think of touching my people again.
“Are you going to keep robbing your subordinates of rubbish? Let’s not just argue, let’s stick together. You said you’re killing me? I’m in front of you right now. Hurry up and kill me.”
“Do you think this guy… Can’t do it! What are they doing! Attack him!”
“Four!”
“Ahhhhh!”
When the order of the Great King of Zhou was given, the powerful people of the Zhou family resumed their attacks by deploying their psychic powers again. Talented people from other families also followed King Ju’s orders.
“Ku-k-k-k-k-k-k!”
Powers rushed at me like moths to a flame. I burst out laughing.
I gave orders to my subordinates who were weaker than myself, but King Ju, who was the strongest among them, did not attack me. Leaders don’t lead by example. Then no!
Those with superpowers of melee type, including body enhancers, rushed at me. Perhaps because of the fact that they attacked me while attacking an ally earlier, the ranged abilities did not use their superpowers.
I swung my fist at the first runner.
“Kuaaaaa!”
As if he had expected me to attack his head, he quickly ducked to avoid my attack. Unfortunately, he did not anticipate the next attack.
Poo-!
“Quaaaaagh!”
The talented person who rushed forward was hit by my kick and flew back. His stomach hollowed out. All organs would have exploded.
I gave fists to the guy running from the side, and round kick to the guy running from behind.
Each time I attacked, one person with abilities lost their lives. There were some talented people who barely died, but were seriously injured to the point of dying soon if not treated quickly.
‘Hmm… Let’s see… Ah, I found it.’
I saw a group of people with healing abilities gathered in the distance. In battle, it is common sense to cut off the opponent’s supply first.
I appeared in the middle of them using my [Non-frost] Psychic powers.
“Eww?!”
“Uh, when are you here…!”
Powers who used healing psychic powers on injured powers were frightened. I grinned and mentally recalled them high into the sky.
“Aaaaa!”
“Help me!”
“Damn it! Save them! Quickly!”
King Ju was horrified when the healing powers rose to the sky in an instant and were incapacitated. They were already floating more than 500m.
What healers can save with psychic powers is limited to living people. You cannot use superpowers on the dead. The same goes for dying yourself.
King Ju knew very well that if they all died, they would die. He ordered the flying ability to rescue him.
“Be patient!”
“Huhhhhh!”
Those with powers of flight flew up like rockets and grabbed those with powers of healing.
“Muh, what are you doing! Hurry down!”
“No, why doesn’t this go down… Turn it off!”
However, those with the ability to fly couldn’t come down to the ground with those with the ability to heal. It was because my telekinetic powers surrounding them were still maintained.
“That’s him! Take down the steel armor! Only then can we save them!”
King Zhou immediately realized that it was because of me that he couldn’t rescue those with healing powers.
“What are you guys doing! You guys, hurry up and attack!”
“Ha, but there’s an ally over there…!”
He gave an attack order to the ranged abilities who were saving their psychic powers. But they hesitated and hesitated to attack.
“Uh-uh-uh…”
“Sah, save me…”
That’s because there were injured people around me. When ranged abilities attack me, they naturally get caught up in the attack as well.
That’s why the ranged abilities are hesitant to attack.
It is usually said that human beings are equal beings.
But that is wrong.
Humans are never equal, their lives are valuable and they have priorities.
“It can’t be helped! If we try to save them, the healers die! If they all die, we have no future!”
“Kuh… I see!”
King Ju shouted at the hesitant talented people. Then, those with long-distance abilities gritted their teeth and began to develop their psychic powers.
They know it too.
That those with healing powers are more precious than those with psychic powers who have been injured.
Sheeeee-
Various psychic powers flew by. Cannons made with telekinesis flew and flames flew. Elemental superpowers such as wind, ice, and lightning flew towards me.
Geeing-
30 level 8 and 9 abilities used superpowers at the same time. The power was not at a level that I could take lightly, so I created a barrier with telekinesis.
Aaaaang-!
A barrier that can only cover my body.
“Aaaaagh!”
“Hey you bastards!!!!”
“Aaaaagh!”
Thanks to this, the dead were wounded and paralyzed. Their entire bodies were shattered as if caught in a bomb.
“Oh, that’s terrible.”
Dum-Dum murmured at the horror unfolding before his eyes.
Killing an ally like this! Even those who are injured and can’t move! These naughty bastards!
With the attack just now, they killed more abilities than I killed.
‘Then attack again… Huh?’
It was the moment to strike back.
From far away, I felt beings with powerful energy running toward me. One of them was a familiar energy to me.
‘It’s finally here.’
As I was preparing to attack the ranged players, I relaxed and stood up straight to wait for them.
After a while, new talents appeared from all over the fence.
“The heads of households have come!”
“Waaaaa!”
Lee Sang-gye, head of the Lee family, Baek Ki-won, head of the Baek family, and Hong Dae-yong, head of the Hong family.
Except for the head of the previous family, all the heads of the family gathered.
