Chapter 1177: Myrth: 147

(Unedited)

…

The Misty forest is covered with a thin wisp of mist and the soldiers could still see ahead of them. As they enter the path to the town they noticed something strange. The whole forest has the tinge and the smell of blood and rotten corpse.

From this, they feel a bit angry as they could sense that something has happened to their comrades. How could 10,000 soldiers disappear like that in thin air?

And so as they went deeper, they discover that the village is actually in ruins. But there is no corpse in the village which made the soldiers feel baffled.

"I think there is no one around here…" an officer said as he leads the charge to the village.

As the soldiers enter one by one, they soon found themselves looking at an empty village with ruins all over the place. Burnt houses, broken walls, and traces of blood could be seen everywhere. But there are no traces of corpses anywhere.

"Where did everyone go? What truly happened here?" a soldier said as he looks around.

Then suddenly they noticed the fog slowly seeping inside the village from outside. As the fog thickens the soldiers immediately feel dread in their hearts.

One soldier who is near the fog was suddenly enveloped by it. He just stood there and observe, suddenly he feel his eyes getting heavy.

It did not take long before he lost consciousness.

The rest of the soldiers immediately began to panic. Those that saw this immediately covered their mouths and held their breaths.

But those that were not fast enough have already fallen.

Out of the thousands of plus soldiers in the area, only a few hundreds were able to hold their breath and gather in one place while looking vigilantly.

"Argghh… My eyes…" one soldier suddenly cried as he suddenly fell to the ground.

Everyone was immediately alarmed, but it was too late as they too feel a slight stinging pain from their eyes and fell to the ground.

By this time, all of the thousands plus soldiers have already fallen unconscious.

From the dilapidated houses, the doors slowly open and people wearing gas masks exited. Holding their spears in their hands, they began to pierce the heads and the chest of the soldiers. Some are even brutal as they would slash the soldier's body before killing them.

These people are the ones who witnessed the atrocities that the soldiers from the Glysko kingdom have done to the people of the Misty village.

After killing the soldiers in the village they began to clean up the place and gather the corpses in one location.

Meanwhile, in front of the village two figures are standing… one tall and one short.

The tall one is about 4 meters and its body is made of metal and tracks, while the other one is a young man. The young man is Xin Ja who is wearing a gas mask while looking in the direction of the officers slowly approaching their location.

When the poison was activated in the fog, some of the officers lost their consciousness, while there are around 5 who retained their consciousness and strength. One of them is commander Kou who is leading the charge.

Commander Kou is a big man with a slightly plump body. He is exuding a strong aura that is stronger than Xin Ja's father. From the looks of it, Commander Kou is actually an 11th level commander of the enemy battalion. He seems to be one of the battalion commanders leading the group.

Xin Ja could tell that something is different with these officers in one glance. They are more vigilant and stronger than the one leading the 10,000 troops. Facing against the 10,000 troops, Xin Ja did not even need to make a move as they just fell like flies.

But right now, the group of 5 soldiers in front of them is different.

Without saying a word, the army officers from the Glysko kingdom made their move.

One of them is the pilot of the metal armor which is actually a level 10 Ki fighter. When that person also moved, Xin Ja knew that he might have a hard time fighting against that fellow. So he shouted…

"Take care of the metal armor… I will fight against the rest…" Xin Ja shouted.

The machine which is being controlled by Yi Terai moved and one of its arms rose to point a weird weapon.

Pom!!!

The sound of air bursting from that weird weapon could immediately be heard.

Then an arm long projectile came flying out from the tip of the weapon which is actually hollow. The projectile looks like a small spear flying really fast like an arrow.

The metal armor was taken aback as the projectile hits its shoulder.

Clang!!! Crash!!!

The thick shoulder armor was shattered into pieces exposing the mechanism of the metal armor.

But then what surprised the pilot of the metal armor is that another projectile immediately was shot towards him. This time, he did not want to underestimate his enemy. So he quickly activates his barrier.

Twang!!!

The projectile hits the barrier and was deflected.

"Damn it!..." a voice of a woman curses from inside the machine which then moved using its tracks.

The ground shake as its position to the left of the golem and then began shooting once again while moving.

Clang! Twang!

The sound of the barrier receiving the bombardment of the projectile echoed in the air.

The weapon that the machine that Yi Terai is piloting is something that uses compressed air to shoot. The weapon is the basic weapon of the machine which only has a short range of around 300 meters.

But the range would increase as long as Ki combined with the compressed air.

But that would drain too much of the user's Ki so the external backpack would provide the needed power for that.

And this is the reason why even if the pilot of the metal armor is a 10th level Ki fighter soldier, he would still be wounded or even killed by the projectile of the compressed air weapon.

Xin Ja could actually use fire stones, but he did not have enough strong metal to create a large Ki buster that the machine could hold and use.

And this is the reason why he came up with the compressed air weapon.

After 10 successive attacks using the projectile covered with Ki, the barrier of the metal armor was shattered. This has caught the pilot off guard and wanted to curse out loud.

How could he expect the enemy to be able to also create their own metal armor?

It was too absurd, their smithing masters and runemasters researched this thing for many years before finally developing one. And yet the kingdom of Jimal also has one.

The pilot is now thinking that the reason why the 10,000 soldiers might have died is because of this enemy metal armor.

But how could a 10th level Ki fighter give up just like that?

He quickly moved and then jumps high up in the air. He lifted both of his heavy arms wanting to smash the head of the enemy.

But how could Yi Terai let that person do what he wanted?

Although tracks are not as agile as legs, she is still able to move the body of the machine agilely using her reflexes.

With a turn of its body, the machine suddenly produces a small shield on its left arm. Then the shield glowed and an energy barrier appears which made the shield grow bigger.

With shield on hand, the machine lifted its right hand and pointed the compressed air weapon.

Then without hesitation, she began to bombard the falling metal armor with sharp projectiles.

Like a piece of paper, the metal armor was torn apart and the pilot inside of it was hit by the projectile. He thought that with his 10th level physique he would not be hurt.

But who would have known that the Ki-covered projectile would tear his leg apart like it was nothing...

Then his other leg was hit, and then his side, and then a projectile hit his stomach ripping his body apart in two pieces.

At this time, the sound of the metal armor crashing to the ground could be heard.

The four people fighting against Xin Ja look at that scene with horror on their faces.

How could they not be afraid? That person, who died, is inside a metal armor. With the metal armor, he could even fight against 11th level Ki Adept. So how could they not be afraid?

This time, the four of them retreated together and surrounded Commander Kou.

No one dares to say anything in fear of inhaling the mist. But then one of them is already at his limit so he could not help but gasp.

As soon as he did so, his body fell limply on the ground.

Upon seeing this, the rest knew that they are at a disadvantage. Commander Kou did not hesitate to run back to the exit.

The rest followed him and no one dare to look back.

"Should we follow them and not let them escape?" Yi Terai asked.

"Let them go…" Xin Ja said as he suddenly fell on one knee.

On his side, there is blood seeping out of his armor.
