Ch 125: Unleashing Divine Might!
“Doo—”
Suddenly, from an unknown mountain peak, a horn sounded.
The horn echoed among the mountain peaks, making it impossible to determine its origin.
The boatmen and sailors on the three large ships heard the horn and their faces instantly changed.
“They’re coming! It’s them—”
As the words fell, figures appeared on many mountain peaks. Some stood on the mountain peaks, others clung to the cliff faces, all watching the three passing large ships.
In the cliffs, there was a large, dark mass. On closer inspection, it was a swarm of bats.
From the ship, they appeared palm-sized, but if they flew closer and spread their wings, they would likely be half a meter across.
“Bloodthirsty Bats—”
Liu Miao was the first in the group to recognize them.
As a former beast tamer, she was most familiar with various flying birds and beasts. She quickly said:
“Pass it on, let everyone be aware of the bloodthirsty bats’ attacks. They like to attack people’s eyes, and they especially like to urinate. Their urine can corrode clothing and burn skin and flesh. Be careful!”
Lin Che walked two steps forward on the deck, stood under the fluttering flag, and looked out.
Looking at the peaks ahead, he circulated his True Qi and shouted:
“Who dares to stop my ships? Come out!”
“My sword does not cut down nameless men!”
His voice rolled and echoed among the mountain peaks.
On a distant mountain peak, the figure of a lean man appeared.
He resembled a mountain ape, lean, but with gray hair, and thick tufts of hair on either side of his cheeks.
It was unknown what cultivation technique he practiced; his eyes were green, and his face was full of disdain.
He wore a string of animal teeth on his chest, gleaming brightly.
“Hahaha, another group of dogs sent to die!”
“Fisherman—you dare to bring troops against us? Today, all three of your ships will sink. Write your last will!”
The ape-like man’s “Fisherman” naturally referred to one of the boatmen.
After he finished speaking, a chorus of laughter echoed from various hilltops, rising and falling, making it impossible to determine how many men there were.
Several boatmen were already pale with fright.
“This, this… let’s retreat. Let’s go back.”
“Your Honors, hurry up. We, we are not afraid. Let’s fight them together. These beasts—”
“They’re coming!! Quick, quick, back to the cabin. They’re here.”
Before the boatmen finished speaking, a heavy impact came from the water.
Dong!! Dong—
The entire large ship trembled, as something struck the bottom of the ship in the deep water.
At the same time, from all sides, from the mountain peaks and valleys, countless figures emerged. They wore raincoats and walked on the water as if it were plain ground.
Lin Che watched the water bandits actively attack and clenched his fist.
Divine Machine System!!
Activate 【Army Soul】!!
“No need to hold back, kill them all—”
Lin Che roared angrily, his killing intent exploding.
In that instant, these three thousand mansion soldiers felt their blood boil; that long-lost feeling returned.
It all came back!
An indescribable, terrifying power was injected into their bodies.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!!”
Three thousand mansion soldiers roared in unison; a layer of bloody mist instantly appeared above the large ship.
Bang—
The first to charge was Yu Huadian.
His figure was like a ghost, instantly appearing on the water’s surface, and in the next instant, the head of the foremost water bandit plopped into the water.
The headless corpse continued forward a few steps before collapsing into the water.
Yu Huadian’s pale face was devoid of blood and emotion, as if he had just severed a head instead of picking a fruit.
Moreover, he seemed afraid that others would steal his kill.
Without stopping, with a flash of icy gleam, he shot out a handful of flying needles, instantly exploding the eyes of more than a dozen people.
The other mansion soldiers charged in orderly groups.
Lin Che did not immediately join the battle; his gaze fell upon the lean ape-like man on the mountain peak. That man was definitely a strong one.
“Blade Servant—why haven’t you made your strike?”
“My mansion soldiers are precious. If a few die here, what will outsiders say? Will they say the Daqian embassy is incompetent?”
“If we’re all wiped out, you’ll be left to take Chi Feiwan to Yan Yun Kingdom. Oh, or maybe Chi Feiwan will be killed too.”
In a few short sentences, the Blade Servant’s expression changed repeatedly.
“Hmph! This is the first and last time!”
The Blade Servant coldly snorted; she also locked onto the lean ape-like man on the mountain peak.
Then, she stepped out into the air.
Her entire person disappeared on the spot.
The next second, she appeared directly on the mountain peak.
Bang—
On the mountain peak, the lean ape-like man, who had just been shouting, seemed not to have reacted; he only felt a figure suddenly appear in front of him.
Many water bandits were startled.
With a flash of black light from the Blade Servant’s hand, a bloody mist erupted on the mountaintop; a large number of people were instantly cut in half.
“Ah—”
The lean ape-like man screamed; his legs had been severed.
The Blade Servant grabbed his garment with one hand and threw him from the mountain peak into the river.
“Aaaaa!!!”
The lean ape-like man’s scream tore through the air as he crashed heavily into the water.
An ordinary person thrown from such a height would have been smashed to pieces. But this lean ape-like man was a powerful martial artist and wasn’t actually killed.
However, with his legs severed, he was unable to escape.
A Shadow Guard guarding the large ship lifted the dying lean ape-like man.
Lin Che watched all this, shocked; the Blade Servant was too terrifying.
Was this the Strong One responsible for protecting Your Majesty’s safety?
Dealing with these water bandits was simply a dimensional strike!
“Old Man!”
Lin Che saw the Shadow Guard bring the lean ape-like man aboard; he walked forward and asked condescendingly:
“Weren’t you very arrogant just now? Why aren’t you yelling anymore?”
The lean ape-like man’s face was pale and bloodless; he forcibly used his power to stop the bleeding from his legs.
He knew he had hit a brick wall.
He never expected the people who came to suppress the bandits to be so terrifying.
“You, you, who are you?”
“I am Champion Marquis Lin Che!!”
Lin Che admitted without fear; this identity couldn’t be hidden anyway.
“If you want revenge, go to Zhen Guo Mansion. Zhen Guo Mansion will take any means—”
“Bring him here! Hang him up, let those water bandits see what their fate is!”
