Chapter 173: Not much Qi left
Earlier, when Jake, Emily and Simyon got to a room, they were surrounded by dozens of soldiers that were about to attack them but thanks to Harry's intervention, they were able to leave there in one piece while Harry was left fighting against the dozens of soldiers.
Harry had been doing well against the soldiers while skillfully dealing with them while at the same time still conserving his strength just in case something huge happens.
But that had all stopped when one of the soldiers had drawn Harry's blood after he had challenged himself that he wouldn't get injured in this fight against some soldiers.
This had caused Harry to unleash his full strength and therefore unleashing his visual Qi causing it to spark showing the strength and Qi of the Thunderbolt guild.
Immediately his Qi was unleashed, Harry pounced off from where he stood earlier cracking the floorboard and hitting a soldier sending him flying while his body was shaking as if electrocuted.
Turning around, Harry's face was about to be met with a sword strike but he leaned backwards avoiding it then he unleashed a literally lightning fast kick towards the soldier sending him flying also.
Looking at the soldiers that surrounded him now, Harry had one more trick up his sleeves as he slammed his hands on the floor sending waves of lightning Qi outwardly striking the soldiers.
"I'm not an ordinary third year student, I'm the heir to the Thunderbolt guild. I had to hide my real strength in the academy but now, there's no need to anymore!" Harry shouted as he dashed towards one of the soldiers that were still stunned.
Then he slashed the soldier's head off cleanly and he dashed to the second soldier who had managed to recover by battling against the Qi with his own Qi.
The soldiers all sent waves and waves of invisible Qi projectiles at Harry who was now dodging them skillfully. Although he couldn't see it, he could feel it as the projectiles were almost close to him.
Being distracted by the projectiles, the soldiers finally decided to charge right at Harry and they started slashing, kicking and punching Harry on either side of his body.
That was when rumblings could be heard coming from underneath them and they all looked at the ground as they could see it shaking.
"Is this your doing?" The soldiers asked Harry who was just standing there staring at the ground rumbling with his body riddled with injuries which his Qi was trying to heal.
Quickly realizing what was going on, Harry rolled over away from the spot so did some of the soldiers and bursting through the ground were people as they fell in the centre of the room with injuries. Stay tuned for updates on empire
The soldiers along with Harry stood there confused at the sight they were seeing as they could see three people fighting against a single human who was standing with a few injuries on him.
"General Paul!?" Harry said confused as he could see General Paul, Kate and Sophia on one side while General Julian on the other side with his giant hammer.
Ignoring Harry, General Paul swirled his Qi around his body as he dashed towards Julian with Sophia a little behind him. Julian readied his hammer as he looked at General Paul.
Then General Julian swung the hammer towards General Paul who had managed to jump avoiding it narrowly. Then Paul smacked Julian with his hands covered in Qi at Julian's head sending him skidding back.
Then Sophia quickly came in with a kick to Julian's stomach that was now blocked by Julian's hammer and then he swung Sophia away sending her flying back and crashing into some of the soldiers.
Finally glancing around the room, Julian could see some of his soldiers he had stationed guard there just standing around looking at the fight blankly and confused about why the two Generals were fighting.
"What are you doing just standing around there? Attack them!" Julian shouted.
Hearing Julian's shout, the soldiers snapped out of their daze as they were about to attack General Paul and the girls but before they could move, they were stopped by streaks of lightning Qi that made them stop their charge.
"Don't worry, I got your backs." Harry said looking at the General and the girls then he turned his attention back at the soldiers. "And I got some scores to settle."
Harry said as he dashed towards the soldiers swiftly and knocked one of them back with a Qi filled strike.
'I can't fight like this for long.' Harry thought as he avoided another kick coming towards his head. 'Having this lightning Qi active, is draining my Qi reserve faster.'
Dodging a strike, Harry wacked the soldier with the flat side of the his sword sending the soldier flying. Remaining just five soldiers in the rooms and Harry was running out of Qi quickly.
Seeing that Harry got the soldiers under control, Paul was now confident enough to go on the attack while Kate was sending arrows after arrows towards Julian's way but he kept using his hammer to block the arrows.
But that was just a distraction because the main damage dealers had enough time to get in front of Julian with Paul distracting the hammer while Sophia jumped up and hit Julian's head causing his head to just move an inch.
"Darn it! I never thought I would fight against a General ever and now faced with this, I don't think I'm strong enough." Sophia said as she narrowly avoided a kick from Julian by the skin of her teeth.
"Had enough?" Julian asked with a smirk on his face. "Although we are practically Generals, I'm much stronger than you so you can't do anything to me, no one can. Victory is assur…"
"Just shut your f*cking mouth up!" Harry shouted as he delivered a powerful strike to Julian's head that lifted his body up and slammed him down on the floor.
Harry quickly moved towards where Paul and the girls where as they saw Julian slowly stand up with anger evident on his face.
"Uhmm guys, there's a problem." Harry said as he looked at the rest.
"I don't have much Qi left, I only have some for two powerful strikes left."
