"Quick! Stop him! Don't let him enter the Upper Zone! "
The guards looked at the man who was moving toward the Upper City District and cried out in alarm. As they brandished their weapons and hid behind cover, the orderly soldiers swarmed out of the various family bases like ants and surrounded Li Ke. Most of them didn't even take more than three minutes to assemble.
Not only were they elites, but they had also greatly exceeded Li Ke's expectations.
"Damn it! We lost contact with Madam Camille and judging from the things that guy brought, I'm afraid that this respectable lady has … "
A young man clad in battle armor hurriedly told the second-in-command of the city, who was also a secret agent of another family. But it was apparent that his superior wasn't satisfied with the conclusion that could be summarized with just a glance. However, this special agent whose Hex enhancement device had replaced most of his body glared at the young man in dissatisfaction. After that, he held back the information in his heart and continued to ask questions while commanding the soldiers to get into formation.
"Don't say such nonsense in the future. I'm not the kind of person who cares about dignity, young man. Instead of saying such things, why don't you tell me what we should know? For example, what methods did he use to defeat Camille? Or perhaps you want me to be more straightforward. How did the other party break through Camille's Hex shield, and how did she break through Camille's legs?! "
In the end, he only received an awkward smile from the young man.
"I'm sorry, Sir. We only know that he can control sand and certain plants. As for the rest …"
The young man shrugged.
"We can't find out anything. He didn't have any weapons and seemed to have used his fists or spells."
The new ruler of Skin City stared coldly at the young man and heaved a sigh of relief.
"If you weren't my son, I would've slaughtered you."
"Thank you for the compliment."
However, the young man didn't mind and neither did his father. Since Camille had lost, it meant that she was lagging behind and the new ruler had to show that he had improved and stood out from the masses. So …
"The energy core that powers the so-called Grey Lady is indeed powerful and the shield it can support is indeed powerful, but it's only a single soldier's equipment! What we have is a brand-new defensive shield that is powered by the core furnace of our city! Even if he has the power to counter the shield, he can't take on an entire city alone! "
Looking at the position-type shield generators that were connected to the energy nodes of the city and the soldiers who were arrayed around these Hex shield generators, the head of the spies, who no longer wanted to limit his power and power to the dark, raised his arms and exclaimed loudly. The soldiers who belonged to him immediately cheered and led the other soldiers to follow suit.
Thousands of fully armed soldiers gathered on the streets that were filled with the style of the steam age. However, their commander wasn't thinking about how to kill Li Ke because it was an easy task. Although there were only a few thousand soldiers equipped with a large number of advanced Hex technology, he was certain that any legion in the world would have to pay the price of destruction if they wanted to attack this modern army that had a shield generator that supplied energy to a city.
It was simply a waste to use such a force to deal with a single person. However, this was necessary because he had to immediately announce the end of the Phiroth family and the rise of his family. Even if the Phiroth family was unwilling to accept this, it was useless. After losing Camilla, a product of Hex Technologies that exceeded the specifications, the Phiroth family would be dragged down by everyone. They would be dragged down from the sky to the ground.
However, at that moment, a mocking voice sounded behind him. He turned around and saw a man holding a soldier's head and dragging him forward. A man who looked very dangerous and whose body kept urging him to run away.
"Is that so?"
Li Ke tilted his head, dropped the soldier who wanted to spit at him, and walked towards the phalanxes. When he walked out of the corner and arrived at the path with countless square formations, the arm of a soldier who had fallen suddenly appeared in the alley behind him. Moreover, the place where he stepped on, flower petals that were pushed out by blood floated out of the small path.
However, there was not a speck of dust on his body. Not even a trace of blood could be seen.
"You think that a single person can't fight against the power of an entire city, right?"
He smiled at this person who didn't look like a human and figured out his problem. His words were inadvertently mixed with something that made this new leader subconsciously take a step back. However, the phalanxes behind him and the shield generators connected to the energy center of the city gave him strength. With the support of the energy of an entire city, even if a meteorite fell, he wouldn't think that the shield would be broken. Therefore, he nodded righteously and stood at the front of the team.
"Of course, the power of a single person can't fight against the will of a group, madman! What you are facing is not some bandits from a tribe! It is the elite force of a civilized city! Marvel at it! This is the power of unity that you will never understand! "
He said the same lines as he sang, but his right hand was raised high. He was ready to command his soldiers to open fire and kill the madman who dared to kill Gray Lady. Then, he would take his body and Gray Lady's head to Phiroth's house to announce his victory. However, just as he was trying to forget his fear, Li Ke, who was shocked by the efficiency of their organization, had already prepared everything.
"The power of unity is indeed unparalleled … But have you heard of another sentence?"
He raised his hand slightly, and the flowers that floated along with the blood began to grow rapidly. The trusted leader wanted to wave his arm in fear, but it was too late. The plants that Li Ke had re-established a connection with Li Ke's magic had already come to his side. They used the power of the corpses and the people who had lost their ability to fight as nutrients and turned into Li Ke's power.
"The strong should be able to do the impossible!"
A scream rang out. The last thing the leader could remember was several vines with a diameter of one meter burrowing out from the ground and shooting at him.
