YM778.TV Chapter 54
when everything was over he just found a tree and sat under it, absent-minded...
this was the first time Caesar killed a human being... and it was an absolute massacre
it was after a few minutes that he stabilized his breathing, and closed his eyes for a minute in a meditation position...
While the more calm Theo and Peon were gathering the 24 corpses in a large pile, and erasing the footprints and other traces of the battle...
Theo\'s expression didn\'t change a bit, he still has the stone-cold face, it\'s like what happened minutes ago was something of his daily life, nothing interesting at all.
As for Peon, his face was covered, but they both knew he was okay as well, this young man had witnessed a much more intense massacre.. one in which his own family got exterminated
When Peon came close to Caesar to drag the headless corpse that was near him, Caesar opened his eyes and stretched his hand to hold the corpse\'s
Just as Peon was about to say something, Caesar ripped a piece of cloth from the corpse\'s sleeve and started to wipe his face with it slowly, then gestured to Peon to take the corpse and continue what he was doing
then he turned his eyes towards the crime scene, reflecting what happened earlier...
--------
Caesar knew that if he kept the flame field around him, the remaining 17 would try to escape in different directions and this would make the task of killing them all impossible even with the help of Theo and Peon,
So he deactivate the flame field and tempted them to kill him.. and the bait worked!
Although Caesar was strong, he was certainly not strong enough to face everyone here at the same time on his own, and they knew that quite well, so they were encouraged and attacked.
Caesar focused entirely on defense and would send flame attacks every now and then to keep his opponents away from him as he retreated step by step,
the real attacking power was still in the hands of Theo and Peon, As everyone was trying to kill Caesar in the quickest way possible, they would hunt the oblivious targets from behind,
the three did their parts perfectly as if they had a prior agreement..
As soon as the attack began, 4 of them fell quickly..
When the rest saw this, they went crazy and tried to speed up the process of killing Caesar and return to the defensive circle, but this caused more mistakes and four others were killed..
At this point, Caesar stopped his defensive act and joined Theo and Peon in the attack.
the attack of the trio was not something that the remaining nine cultivators could resist... they tried to escape in different directions but it was too late for that, the last five followers were easily hunted down and get killed
The four geniuses began to kneel down and demanded to be kept alive in exchange for a ransom of gold, and another began to threaten and talk about his father\'s status and that an Earl family like the Burtons would not bear his vengeance.
As for the weaker Sheldon, he had already prostrated himself asking for mercy... but to no avail.
From the instant Caesar deactivated the flame field To the moment he cut off Sheldon\'s head...just Two minutes had passed.
-------
"Young master Caesar, we gathered all the corpses in one pile, it\'s your turn now." Peon calmly approached and said
Caesar nodded, then twisted his hand, and a small white ball of flame came out and landed on the pile of corpses, began to eat it silently...
The three watched the scene silently as their enemies were disappearing until Caesar finally opened his mouth,
Finally, Caesar managed to gather enough strength to speak, "What happened today must remain between the three of us, if what happened leaks, we will be exposed to a real catastrophe... We are still inside the enemy\'s territory."
The two nodded and didn\'t say anything.
"You don\'t need to disperse and look for beasts on your own anymore, we should stay together.. you heard yourselves, we might encounter another group like this once again, this time we got lucky, but that doesn\'t mean we would be a second time... we must stay together.
but don\'t walk next to me either, the fear of the unseen is more terrifying than anything.. this fear is what helped us this time, if they were thinking straight they would have been able to escape... so you\'d better stay within 30 meters of me, and stay in a full concealment condition until the right moment"
"Yes." Peon nodded and then pointed to Theo towards a certain direction, and the two of them disappeared.
Caesar remained sitting as he watched the pile of corpses that was about to vanish, and thought about the details of the massacre that had just occurred.. Then he sighed, "Father, you have created real monsters.. Just what do you want to achieve with this?"
Caesar stood and looked toward the sun, "There are about five hours left until the end of the event, the nearest gate is half an hour east, and the gate of the black sun is about five hours south... Shall I take the short route and avoid trouble?
...No, the grown-ups of Dolivar might come up with some nonce to arrest me with if I approached different gates.. Only the one gate controlled by the experts of the Black Sun I can pass through with peace of mind!
..but the distance is far and I may encounter other squads, the scenario of this battle might not work again..."
Caesar was confused for a few minutes between two bitter choices, but in the end, he made up his mind and jumped south.
---------
the sun of the third began to set, everyone knew that this indicates that the hunting event was coming to an end,
most squads are trying to get more tokens as fast as possible, and some of the weaker squads began to move near the gates waiting for it to open,
all in all.. things were very lively inside the hunting area.
"Hey, aren\'t you Caesar? Wait!"
An excited voice came from afar as Caesar jumped from tree to tree, made him stop, but he remained on top of his guard
A few seconds later, a squad of 3 people appeared, they were the Julian Duchy squad of the Black Sun kingdom.
"Oh, Brother Dali? it seems that the hunting event was not going easy for you." Caesar quickly scanned the one he called Dali, the guy and his follower were in extremely bad shape.
"has it been easy for anyone? I see you alone, are all your followers had...?"
Caesar smiled and changed the subject, "Where are you going now, and why did you call me? Can I help you with something?"
"Brother Caesar, don\'t be so cold, the hunting event is almost over and there is no need to compete, can\'t we go to the gate together? You are alone and we are injured, we must stay together to increase our chance of survival until we reach the nearest gate! I bet the rest began to form groups since the beginning of the third day already for the same reason..
but I was unfortunate and did not find another squad from the Black Sun before now.. A few hours ago we encountered a level 11 beast, we barely managed to kill it, but it put us in this current stat and killed one of us, I fear that if we encountered even a level 10 beast now we would get eaten"
".... I am not heading towards the nearest gate, I will go to the one we entered through, if you want to come with me, then come."
"This…" The gate they entered was still at least two hours away, why would Caesar choose the long way?
As he prepared to refuse and continue his way toward the nearest gate, he restrained himself, aside from the bloody smell emitted from Caesar, his clothes and physical condition were so good... it was almost as if he hadn\'t seen a single beast in the three days, but that\'s impossible! Even if he hid underground, he would have found a beast or two!
Is he very strong as the rumors say about him back in the kingdom .. Or is he excellent at avoiding monsters?
In both cases, the benefit will be greater if he follows Caesar... "Okay we\'ll come with you to that gate, so what if we took a little woke in this cute and lovable place to preserve more memories? Ahaha let\'s go!"
