Chapter 195: Why Don’t You Just Rob The Academy!
He breathed roughly and his neck popped back in shape.
With a glare, he fixed his eyes onto the guy before him, ignoring the bodily fluid and materials on his body.
His tone rough but strangely soft and he seem as though he was smiling. "Why didn't you come out earlier? I could have died!" his eyes was shining with a sinister light.
Without waiting for a reply, Lucian pressed on and headed towards Slythen with a slow but steady step.
Every step seem to carry immense threat and waves surged from his body without limit.
Slythen remained in different when he saw Lucian's battle intent but he was still a bit shocked.
According to his knowledge, there was no one with as much stats as him as he had used various previous medicin to rise his physical strength and mana to an astonishing level but now that he had roughly calculated from the heartbeat coming off Lucian, he felt like they were almost on per with each other.
Slythen wasn't one to back down and neither was he one to admit his fault. "What does it matter? I killed the assassin in the end and you also didn't die. You should be happy."
Slythen stayed indifferently.
Lucian could not help but chuckle coldly. "Then I hope you should also be happy with this."
He suddenly dashed forwards swiftly, he spun around and delivered a side kick.
"Bam!"
His leg blurred into a grey shadow as it struck at Slythen's chest.
Sneering coldly, Slythen swiftly took his hammer and placed it in front of him, effectively blocking the attack. Lucian's leg was on the hammer.
The stalemate only lasted for a milisecond Upon seeing this, Lucian instantly snorted and abruptly, the force in his leg increased exponentially.
It immediately pressed down on the hammer smashing both his leg and the hammer on Slythen's chest.
"Bang!"
Slythen tumbled to the ground like a barrel as he rolled on the ground a few times and crashed into a big tree.
A large slab of barks fell from the tree upon impact of his collision, making the leaves drift in the air like rain.
Slythen had been protected by some force field hence he wasn't that injured and should up quickly.
His expression was one of anger and embarrassment as he glared viciously at Lucian.
He couldn't believe that he couldn't even take just one attack from Lucian "You!!!" his anger flared and his face reddened.
In that moment, he roared fiercely as he jump to the air.
"Sky Hammer; Bash! Strike!!" his voiced was loud and his hammer abruptly increased in size.
With that, the air seem to solidify under the pressure of the hammer but the hammer was also surprisingly quick, carry with it astonishing might and speed that seem to want to crush Lucian underneath.
"Hmph!" Lucian harrumphed coldly. Executing Cyclonic Kick, the reflexes and agility on his leg seem to have doubled and his whipped his legs forwards.
Four black shadows lashed forwards in an instant.
"Bam! Bam! Bam! Bang!" As one kick wasn't enough to stop the force from the hammer, he swiftly delivered three, stopping the momentum form the hammer.
After which, he jabbed his foot against Slythen's chest in a clean and simple manner.
Slythen's body was violently flunged and his body voiced several times like a soccer ball before crashing into a large green rock, his battered body laid by the side.
He suddenly coughed out blood but he didn't care about it.
He stared with eyes full of disbelief and shock at Lucian.
He couldn't believe he had been defeated quite easily.
Their blood cycle was almost the same, so theoretically, they should have the same power level and their strength should be similar but why is there such a huge gap in their strength?
He could not quite believe it. He stood up and took his hammer that had fallen off on the floor, with quick strides, he rushed at Lucian attempting to smash at him again.
But all of a sudden, a voice suddenly called out.
"Wait! Wait! Guys! We are on the same side." Dravin that had been timidly hiding in the bushes eventually came out, only to see the both of them fighting.
He hurriedly stood in their middle, interesting the fight or in his honest opinion, the bullying.
"Slythen, that's Lucian. I called him over for support in case we couldn't handle the situation well." Dravin points at Lucian and he hurriedly explained.
"Lucian, that is Slythen. A five star genius. A very important and precious person of the institute. He is considered the strongest amongst our set and even said to be promoted to the elite class."
Dravin explained but in his last sentence, he was also a bit confused as he had seen Lucian send the supposedly strongest ranker amongst the new students flying with a kick.
Lucian instantly snorted but didn't say anything. The two kicks he had delivered already calmed his anger somewhat and he was beginning to cool down.
Hearing that, Slythen's anger seem to have reached its limit. He cursed loudly "Fvck!" he was about to engage Lucian in another battle.
"Let's leave here quickly! Swarms of beast would rush in here like a tide if we don't leave here Soon! They might even be of the boss grade."
Dravin hurriedly changed the topic by reminding them of the danger at hand.
When the both of them heard his words, they forcefully calmed down. Since what Dravin said was true.
The blood of a high level ranker was of great tonic to them.
Lucian casually went up to the fallen body of the assassin and searched his body expressionlessly.
Dravin glanced at him in surprise and then in understanding after a while but Slythen wasn't the least bit courteous as he sneered. "Looting off the dead! You are quite shameless aren't you?"
Lucian directly ignored his words and an after a few seconds of searching, Lucian couldn't find a thing.
Frustrated, Lucian stood up and followed hurriedly in the direction Dravin and Slythen had just taken.
He hadn't collected his Relic coins yet and he wasn't going to forget it. He had just taken two steps forward when a glint caught his eyes.
He looked at the corpse on the ground with scrutiny and he found that there were two rings on his finger.
Bending down, Lucian hesitated for a while. He wasn't sure if he should take off the ring or not as there might be tracking devices installed in them of they were valuable.
Seeing as he didn't have much time left to decide since he could hear the various roar and stampeding of several beast, he decisively took the ring off as that was the only thing he could get from the body of the assassin.
He couldn't help but curse at the dead Python about why he didn't bring anything of much value.
Placing the ring in his spatial space, Lucian hurriedly took his leave.
A few minutes later, that location turned increasingly chaotic as several beasts fought tooth and nails as though they had gone mad just to have a single bite from the rankers flesh and blood.
Although, the low level beast didn't have the power to fight for the flesh and blood from the ranker, their eyes were only seeing red as they joined the chaotic fights to just have a piece of meat form the Phaser's corpse.
That is how deeply attractive the blood and flesh of a high level ranker is to them.
"Alright, Alright! Here should be safe enough. I only agreed to help you because of the Relic coins you are offering and frankly enough, the amount you are paying isn't enough for the help I offered."
Lucian said frankly with his arms crossed as he glared at Dravin.
Currently, their location is a few kilometres away from where the battle had taken place, so it could be said to be safe.
Lucian hurriedly asked for his payments since he didn't want to be in the company of the two guys anymore.
"I know, but the amount I have here, isn't enough." Dravin smiled bitterly.
Lucian's face darkened and waves emanated from him. "What do you mean? You plan to not pay me?"
"No, no. Its not what you are thinking. Honestly, I already spent all the points I have left but as soon as I get to the institute, it would be a simple matter to get enough Relic coins to repay. I just need to days." Dravin's eyes furrowed slightly as he stated.
Gazing straight into his eyes, Lucian could see his sincerity. "Fine! Just do as you promised."
Lucian said forcefully and he turned around. But then, he seem to have remembered something.
"Oh, for everyday that passes by without paying the Relic coins, there would be a 10% increase rate on it."
"Why don't you just rob the academy!"
Dravin yelled with his face flushed red. Although he could easily make money by making a few basic serums, he also needed money to buy materials and also, for other things such as replacing the button force fields he had used during the fight to ensure his safety.
