Battle Royale of the Sinners

Chapter 179: 179

Chapter 179 - Battle of Liyang - Part 9

Although it took Tong one second to kill and leap to another target, Huangfu Song and his men managed to react after Tong killed the 10th archer .

Soldiers with shields in front surrounded him to limit his movement . Spearmen on the second line held their Javelins and were ready to toss them to Tong .

"Brat! Surrender! You're surrounded!"

Tong looked around and noticed that he was surrounded so fast . He laughed .

"Wow! I'm impressed . You have amazing disciplined soldiers, and they even moved without order! Should I say, as expected from the elites of the elites?"

"If you knew it, you can surrender! Unlike those scoundrel friends of yours, I promise I will give you another chance in life!"

Tong nodded in admiration . This person's psychological persuasion was also good . He checked his system map to see who the commander was . The name "Huangfu Song" appeared on the location of the speaker .

'Jackpot!'

Tong laughed out loud by reflex after realizing that one of the grand commanders of the three armies was here .

"Has he gone insane?"

"He's lost it . "

"Well, that's obvious . Any cornered rat will show its true inner side . "

The shield bearers gossiped after they saw Tong's reaction . On the other hand, Huangfu Song did not think that way .

'His eyes and his expression aren't clouded with fear! That's not a despaired laugh!'

Huangfu Song had a bad premonition . From his ability to read people, Tong did not reveal a hint of an insane person or a despaired prisoner .

He trusted his instinct . This young man had to die right now .

"Men! Kill him now!"

"HAHAHA! It's too late! You can't escape! [Time Stop]!"

Though Tong wanted to scream "ZA WARUDO" as the skill activation, he was afraid that one of the [???] sins would act up again . Every time he acted like a chunnibyou, this [Sin] always got stronger .

<time stop="" activated . ="" you="" have="" 10="" seconds="" remaining="">>

The world became colorless as everything in this dimension was paused .

"I wish I have a road roller in my inventory …"

Tong leaped over the shield formation that surrounded him and landed in front of Huangfu Song .

As usual, Tong took out a sharp blade and sliced his neck in one slash .

<you have="" 8="" seconds="" remaining="">>

He gazed at the boiling grease in his inventory menu . He wanted to burn everybody here again as he did in the other day . However, he felt terrible for the people in Puyang Region since they had nothing to do with this battle .

If Tong used the grease fire again, the innocents in this area would suffer as the wind still blowing southwest .

"But I have other ways to kill all of you!"

Instead of using grease fire, Tong ejected hundreds of cubic stones into mid-air from his inventory . These cubic stones moved by the discharged force and came to a stop . These over-a-ton stones hung over their heads, waiting for the time stop effect to run out .

"I guess I should call it the mini-road-da-roller-da!"

<you have="" 2="" seconds="" remaining="">>

"Whoops! Time to bail . "

Tong started running away from this location to hide in the shadow of the trees nearby . He had not planned to retreat to his camp until he farmed all lifespans from these men .

<you have="" 1="" second="" remaining="">>

Tong snapped his fingers . 'Zero!'

<the flow="" of="" time="" shall="" resume="">>

"Huh?"

"What!?"

"Where did he go?"

Tong frowned from listening to the voice of the panic soldiers . A-hard-object-hit-the-meat sound, crushing impact sound, or bone cracking noise did not come . Aside from the soldiers' voice, it was silence .

'What happened!? I thought I used those boulders to crush them . Why!?'

"General!"

"General is dead!"

The soldiers already noticed that Huangfu Song's neck was sliced open . He already fell on the ground and stopped breathing .

Even though Tong stocked another 20,000 lifespans for the final reward of his soulmate quest, he was not happy with this development . Something was wrong during the last few seconds when he escaped back into the woods to hide .

'Dammit! If those stones killed the soldiers, my [Time Stop] skill would have been leveled up!'

'What exactly is going on?'

Tong took a peek to see the situation outside as his radar map was filled with red dots .

What he saw astonished and shocked him . The cubic stones were floating upward instead of falling . In mid-air, a white-haired old man in a Daoist robe was standing on one of the cubed rocks .

'Who!?'

Tong looked at his radar map by instinct, yet the system map did not show him on it .

'How!?'

"You must be thinking [How is this possible], right?" A haughty female voice sounded behind Tong .

Tong sensed terrifying killing intent aura from the voice behind him . He leaped to the side by reflex .

"I'll repeat your words, little demon . It's too late . You can't escape!"

A white hand pieced through his iron armor and dug into his chest, breaking his ribs . The hand grabbed tight onto his beating heart and squeezed it .

Blood leaked out from Tong's five orifices as multiple of his blood vessels ruptured from the sudden burst of blood pressure .

"You can die, wicked demon!"

The owner of the voice, the women in angelic robe, pulled out Tong's heart from his body .

Confused, shocked, panicked, Tong stared at the face of the woman . Behind her back, eight white tentacle wings danced in the air . Tong gathered the last bit of his will and strength to chant a word in his brain .

'Regen!'

<you have="" consumed="" 5,000="" lifespans="">>

There was no time to feel pity for the lost lifespans from this regeneration skill . Tong used this opportunity that the woman thought he was already died by her hand to kick the ground and dashed at full speed toward the east .

He faced the 10 G-Force again because of the sudden burst of speed . However, this time, he did not black out . His adrenaline ran into all of his blood vessels, and his brain overclocked in full power, making him be able to temporarily control every part of his body with a single thought .

Within two seconds the angelic woman let her guard down, Tong dashed 300 meters away from her .

"Huh? Is he still alive after all that? Oh, right . He has that [Yang Seed] skill . "

This woman was none other than Liu Yang, the goddess-in-training and the successor of Athena that infiltrated this dimension . At the same time, the old man who was in the air and was observing them was Zuo Ci .

"Goddess, that's enough . I've told you to give him a warning, not to kill him . "

"Ha! He won't die from just that . If I don't kill him again, he won't remember!"

Liu Yang chased after Tong without waiting for Zuo Ci's permission . She caught up with Tong within one breath . She reappeared by the right side of Tong as if she teleported .

"As I said, you can't escape!"

A flying kick was coming toward Tong's head .

Thanked the overclock mode, he saw a kick coming at him . Even with his heightened sense, Tong still felt that the kick was still too fast .

Tong raised his right elbow and used his left arm as a support . At the same time, he pointed his index finger at the attacking woman .

'Eject, boiling grease!'

All the hot oil from Tong's [Inventory] was ejected in the shape of jet liquid stream as if it was shot out from a firefighter's hose .

Liu Yang's kick landed on Tong's arms, breaking them, sending impact to his head, and sent Tong flying into the river . At the same moment, the jet boiling oil slammed onto Liu Yang's entire body, creating white smoke and burnt her white skins and clothes .

Liu Yang screamed in pain as her skin reddened from the burn . However, it was temporary as her burnt skins were healing to counter the spreading wounds .

Although the hot oil could not kill her, burning wounds were still a painful experience for her nonetheless . She glared at the direction where she sent Tong flying in resentment .

"HOW DARE YOU! [Goddess of War], Weapon creation!"

<your [goddess="" of="" war]="" has="" been="" deleted="">>

What she created was an armed ICBM which was set to detonate in 3 seconds . She flew on top of the river where Tong landed and was about to toss the missile into the river .

"GODDESS! STAY YOUR HAND!"

Zuo Ci also spread his ten black tentacle wings and exerted all of his power to stop the missile from falling into the river . It stopped in midair and shuttled upward to the sky faster than light speed .

The missile was launched into space within a second . It exploded in the void without creating a sound .

Liu Yang looked back at Zuo Ci with a frustrated expression . She had just sacrificed her best skill to kill this heretic demon, but this geezer stopped her .

"You've wasted my skill! I demand compensation!"

Zuo Ci squinted his eyes . This woman still did not know her place . Besides, his status had tremendously changed into something else that she should not be able to belate him anymore .

"Be quiet!"

With a snap of fingers, a lightning cage trapped Liu Yang inside and the electric current zapped into her body .

"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!" The high-pitched scream resounded the night, alerting both Tong's soldiers and Imperial soldiers .

Zuo Ci snapped his fingers again . The cage and the goddess were teleported elsewhere, leaving Zuo Ci alone in mid-air .

On the river, Tong was floating face-up . Blood was running out from his nose and ears . The last kick of Liu Yang gave him a concussion . If Zuo Ci left him alone, he would cause permanent severe brain injuries .

Tong also tried his best to stay awake despite his severe injuries . The clock in the system menu showed 11 . 35 PM . He had to wait for another 25 minutes before he could use his regeneration skill again .

Zuo Ci dropped himself and stepped on the river . One of his tentacle wings touched Tong's forehead . He chanted .

"[Soul of Charity], Heal!"

The wing turned into a spirit of a young girl . She poured light into Tong's head, and all his injuries were healed in an instant .

The spirit reverted into a tentacle wing and returned to the back of Zuo Ci again .

Tong stared at Zuo Ci in astonishment . He had heard from the system goddess that he should be cautious about these beings .

"Nice to meet you, young man . I'm Zuo Ci, the administrator of this planet . "

"You have committed great sins that I have to come here personally to warn you!"</your></you></the></you></you></you></time></click>
