Chapter 254 - The Victor’s Compassion
Chapter 254: The Victor’s Compassion
Outside the valley, the troop charged forth.
“Xiao Huang!”
Zhou Hao slapped his shoulder, and a palm-sized ant on his shoulder quickly climbed down. The ant transformed and was as huge as a big truck on the ground.
Zhou Hao rolled over and triggered his conscious power. The golden ant fluttered its wings and took off from the ground, and Zhou Hao was going to ride on top of it.
“Zhou Hao, give me a lift!” Liu Heng took few strides to catch up with him, he did a flip and landed on top of the Golden Queen Ant’s body.
“Hold on tight!”
The two of them dashed forward.
Liu Xue and He Ling were lagging behind, but they used motion arts and were able to zip through the snow without leaving a single trace behind.
Soon, they were inside the Scorpion Corps’s camp, which was in ruins. The caravans were all blown up and only one tent remained in good condition. The flames illuminated their surroundings.
“Enemy attack, here it comes!”
Someone screeched in terror.
“Beast king!”
“How’s that possible, do you mean a beastmaster’s beast king?”
Those people were scared out of their wits.
Zhou Hao quickly locked his conscious energy onto an F-tier aptitude user without caring about the others.
“Li Hu? Ten million yuan is now mine!”
The Golden Queen Ant charged toward Li Hu ferociously.
Li Hu dared not fight against the Golden Queen Ant. He turned around and ran in fear, but he was nowhere faster than the Golden Queen Ant.
Before he could run far, a terrifyingly long spear had pierced through his back.
He was instantly picked off from the ground.
“Die!”
Zhou Hao held the four-meter long spear with both hands, and with a flick of his wrist, the spear was retracted.
Zhou Hao grabbed Li Hu’s heavily injured body, he lifted his arms and pulled him up by the neck.
Snap!
With one move, Zhou Hao’s eyes were bloodshot red.
This was his first time participating in a battle. Although he was still a teenager, he was not excited nor did he feel uneasy, instead, he felt his blood boiling.
“Again!”
The mighty Golden Queen Ant charged toward the crowd in a rampage.
The others then caught up with him and began to obstruct the F-tier aptitude users, while a large number of aptitude users from Fengli colony had also joined the battle. They surrounded the G-tier aptitude users and killed them.
For a brief moment, the screams and cries of killing echoed in the remote valley.
At this time, Qin Feng was still chasing after Scorpio.
‘I didn’t expect Scorpio to be this good in using motion arts, even with my internal force enhanced speed, I can’t catch up to him!’
Qin Feng’s brows were slightly furrowed, but he was still able to keep up with Scorpio. He did not have the slightest intention of giving up on the chase.
If he were not able to catch up, Qin Feng would maintain his speed so he would not let Scorpio throw him off.
‘Even with an improved Spectre Motion Steps, it would still be slower even though it’s a motion arts movement. It seems like I would require a stronger motion arts technique!’
The motion arts technique he had previously given to Zhou Hao would not work in this situation because it required a matching internal strength technique. Since Qin Feng already had the Star Absorption skill, there was no reason for him to learn the technique.
Even though Qin Feng was distracted about getting the internal strength he would be getting later, his pace did not slow down at all.
When compared to him, Scorpion was super exhausted!
His motion arts was indeed very good, but any motion art technique that involved extreme speeds would consume a lot of the user’s strength.
Scorpio’s internal strength was almost depleted!
“Damn it, I can’t believe he’s still after me!”
Scorpio reached for his spatial rune equipment and pulled out a small porcelain vial, he poured out the pills inside and stuffed them into his mouth.
He felt his internal strength bubbling inside. Once he had recovered some strength, he continued with his escape.
Qin Feng frowned again.
“Scorpio, you’d better stop running. You’re wasting the pills, maybe you should just leave it for me!” Qin Feng sneered at him.
“Eat my fart!” Scorpio was still running frantically, he dared not stop at all.
But no matter how fast he could run, he still could not outrun him.
“Stop him!” Qin Feng shouted.
While Scorpio was still figuring out who Qin Feng was talking to, a human figure suddenly appeared before him.
It was an extremely beautiful young lady, and as Qin Feng was becoming more famous, Bai Li too was starting to gain more recognition.
Word got around that Bai Li was Qin Feng’s girlfriend, and she was like a treasured antique vase to him.
However, many people said that Bai Li was actually quite powerful and awe-inspiring, but it was just that she did not fight much.
Scorpio thought that she was just a lovely girl, but soon he realized that he was dead wrong.
Swish!
Five streaks of white light blinded him.
“Ah!”
Scorpio let out a scream, he did not even know what he was hit by, but he felt severe pain on one eye. A huge gash formed on his eye all the way to the chin, and five more bloody gashes were formed on his chest. The tremendous force sent Scorpio flying backward.
He landed in front of Qin Feng.
Qin Feng bent down and landed a punch on Scorpio’s dantian.
“Star Absorption skill!”
The powerful suction drained out all of Scorpio’s internal energy!
Scorpio’s body twitched, he felt as if his internal energy was being siphoned away from his body.
Scorpio had used up most of his internal energy earlier, but the Star Absorption skill was extracting the energy from his dantian. If the internal energy inside was completely drained out, it would absorb the internal energy that was stored in the limbs.
This was known as a reversal meridian, but Scorpio did not have the energy to stop this from happening.
In the blink of an eye, the internal energy inside of Scorpio’s body was completely leached out.
Then, Qin Feng raised the Verdant Emperor Saber in his hand.
“No!”
Scorpio tried to resist, but he had no strength at all. Before his death, his eyes were filled with remorse, and he looked as if he regretted provoking Qin Feng.
Poof!
The saber came down like a guillotine. Qin Feng had beheaded Scorpio.
With just a flick of his hand, Qin Feng wrapped Scorpio’s head with conscious energy and sent it into his spatial runic equipment.
“Burn!”
A tiny amber landed on Scorpio’s body. Just like that, the body of the Three Cities’ Executioner who had terrorized and slaughtered countless people was burnt into ashes.
After the fire had died down, Qin Feng picked up some of the runic equipment that remained.
Afterward, Qin Feng brought Bai Li with him and returned to the Scorpion Corps’s camp side.
The battle was now nearing its end.
Although Scorpion Corps had more F-tier aptitude users than expected, with Zhou Hao’s Golden Queen Ant, those F-tier aptitude users were nothing to worry about. Even if there were ten more of them, they would still not be a match for the Golden Queen Ant.
About three hundred people died under the cannon siege. As soon as the troops from Fengli colony showed up, these people were like homeless dogs scattering around aimlessly. They had no fighting power at all and were all quickly slaughtered.
The ground was piled with black charred corpses, and there were also bodies that had fresh wounds. The entire place reeked of fresh blood and a terrible stench.
The crowd turned toward Qin Feng as he was illuminated under the fiery glow.
Some of them were actually new to this kind of large-scale siege that involved a Dark Organization, and some of them were even trembling.
It could be out of excitement, or it could be out of fear.
Qin Feng stopped walking and looked at the people who were following him from behind.
He lifted his hand slightly and pointed at the bodies that were piled up next to him.
A spot that reeked of blood, decay, and dread.
“See here?”
The crowd was silent.
“This is a scene which can only be savored by victors.”
“If you become losers, your bodies will belong to this pile of corpses.”
“With that said, try and keep up with me, and you will see more of this later in the future. When the time comes, you will get used to this scene!”
“A victor’s compassion is what losers admire the most!”
