Sui Xiong floated in the sky and looked at the village that was filled with black smoke under his feet. His expression was rather unpleasant.
"You should have told me earlier," he said to Wenner.
Wenner did not continue the topic but talked about something else. "I'm a little puzzled. What kind of ending do they want?"
Sui Xiong sneered. "How many people would consider the ending when they are courting death? I'll blast them into a pile of dregs later and use them to fertilize the fields!"
"That won't be necessary." Wenner shook his head. "The rapid-mobility troop from the Republic of Northwest is not far from here."
Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment. He closed his eyes and sensed for a while before realizing that it was just as Wenner had said. The rapid-mobility troop from the Republic of Northwest was rushing over at an astonishing speed. Although they were still very far away, if they maintained this speed, they would arrive in the early hours of the next morning. Even if they rested tonight and set off tomorrow morning, it was estimated that they would be able to catch up with this group of aristocratic cavalry by tomorrow evening.
He compared the map in his memory and the style of the aristocratic party's rapid-mobility troop. Only then did he temporarily put aside his plan to send down thunder and blast that group of dregs into pieces.
It was best to let the power of the human world settle the affairs of the human world. Compared to him personally punishing this group of villains, it was more appropriate to let the army of mortals annihilate them in a fierce battle.
If this group of villains were to die in the hands of the gods, it would only make people feel that they were indeed strong and invincible and that only the gods could punish them. And if they were to die in the hands of the army of the human world, people would feel that they were actually just so-so and not really impossible to deal with.
It was the same death, but the effect was different.
As for the question of whether they could defeat them or not … In the rapid-mobility troop of the Republic of Northwest, in addition to the original manpower, seven more people had been temporarily added, and all of them were Legendary Masters. The leader was impressively Leon Igor, who was now faintly known as "the strongest among mortals."
The brutality of the aristocratic party's rapid-mobility troop had angered many masters under Sui Xiong's command. In addition to Leon, there was Gerrard, Felix, Herman, Clito, Asner, and Nice. There was also Night Rain, who was originally leading the team. This was a frequent participant in the previous Number One Martial Arts Tournament. After winning the Number One Martial Arts Tournament, he wandered around for a few years before settling in Void City. Not long ago, he had become a believer of Sui Xiong. This time around, when he was setting up the rapid-mobility troop, he had expressed that in terms of experience in the pugilistic world, there were not many people in the world who could match up to him. The person to lead this troop was none other than himself.
Eight legendary masters gathered together. Among them, there were two at the initial legendary level (Nice and Night Rain), four at the intermediate legendary level (Felix, Herman, Clito, and Asner), one at the high legendary level (Gerrard), and one at the peak of legendary level (Leon). With such a luxurious lineup, coupled with the extremely elite troops, Sui Xiong could not think of any possibility for the enemy to win.
Therefore, it was better to leave the matters of mortals to the mortals.
Although it would be too disrespectful to send eight Legendary powerhouses to exterminate this group of villains, it was still fundamentally different from sending the Gods.
Thinking like this, Sui Xiong slowly calmed down.
Then he could not help but complain about Wenner.
"If you had told me earlier, at least the people in this village would not have died," he said.
Wenner smiled and did not explain.
As the God of War, he had never been a kind person. The deaths and injuries of a group of civilians were nothing to him. In contrast, what he cared more about was the powerful effect that this kind of troop type that had never appeared before could produce.
Because of the destruction of the aristocratic party's rapid-mobility troop, the merchant party's logistics were indeed in great chaos. The supplies at the front line had begun to run short. Moreover, the merchant party's will to fight had also been hit. Many small and medium-sized merchants began to hesitate and persuade the big merchants to give up fighting and bow their heads as usual.
If it were not for the fact that the rapid-mobility troop of the Republic of Northwest was already catching up, this battle would definitely have wiped out the aristocratic party's cavalry. In fact, he had intended to hide it from Sui Xiong for a period of time and take a good look at how things would develop.
What a pity!
He secretly sighed in his heart and even somewhat regretted why he did not try to disrupt the divination and delay the actions of the Republic of Northwest's rapid-mobility troop in pursuing and killing the aristocratic party's harassing troops.
If that had been the case, he would definitely have been able to see more developments in the situation!
But on second thought, he felt that the current situation was not bad either.
For many things, as long as there was a first, there would be many others who would follow suit in the future. This time, the aristocratic party had made a start. In the future large-scale wars, there would definitely be many opportunities for this kind of fast and fierce harassing troops to be active.
In contrast, the annihilation of the first harassing troop in history was considered a good ending.
To be besieged and destroyed by a large group of Legendary Masters led by the number one master among the mortals, such an ending was quite legendary. It was enough to make the future generations look up to them.
Thinking of this, he felt relieved.
At this moment, Sui Xiong suddenly frowned and said with some surprise, "The leader of that group of bandits is a little abnormal."
The God of War looked in the direction he was pointing and saw Earl Hauss sitting tiredly beside the carriage. His face was pale and his body was trembling slightly. He seemed to be seriously ill, but also seemed to have suffered a serious internal injury.
The maid who was supposed to be by his side to take care of him was nowhere to be found.
"Before this, he must have used some means to stimulate his potential and forcibly displayed the power of a Legendary Master. Since then, he has been injured and has not gotten better, "Wenner said based on the impression in his memory.
This impression was, of course, wrong, because this Earl was not a "mortal who had stimulated his potential" at all, but a Holy Spirit who had possessed the body of a mortal.
It was just that although the power of a Holy Spirit was far inferior to that of a God, there was essentially no difference. The other party had deliberately hidden it, and Wenner had never gotten close to study it, so he was actually deceived by him.
Wenner's strength was naturally extremely strong. However, during this period of time, he did not pay much attention to the aristocratic party's cavalry. His focus was on the reactions of all parties to this troop. If it was not for the fact that he could no longer hide it this time and needed to inform Sui Xiong, he would not even bother to come and observe this troop in person.
Since he did not even come, then of course, he could not see anything.
But Sui Xiong was different. In a rage, he examined the group of villains one by one, and naturally, he discovered the abnormality of Earl Hauss.
Sui Xiong had never seen a method like the possession of a Holy Spirit before, so he could not see it for a moment. But he could clearly see that Earl Hauss's situation was not normal — the strength of this person's soul was far beyond the level that a human could reach.
As the Great Demon King of the Distant Sea who had once devoured souls for a living, Sui Xiong's sensitivity to souls was far beyond that of the other Gods.
"There is something wrong with this person's soul," he said, frowning. "The strength is too high, it's not normal!"
Wenner was shocked and hurriedly observed carefully. Then, he also narrowed his eyes.
"I have seen such a situation before," he said coldly. "This fellow is not a mortal at all, but a Holy Spirit who has possessed the body of a mortal!"
