Chapter 179 A Heroes Troubles
With two Kaisers having been hit with an attack and consumed by an explosion, Seth turned to the last remaining Kaiser who currently had his hand messaging his head as he looked up at him, most likely still suffering from the effects of set ripping his chain out of the ground and setting it ablaze.
Seth could see fear in the Kaiser's eyes, and he could feel the man's soul sense vigorously sweeping around, the man's eyes even following along as it tried to find a means to escape.
Gritting his teeth, the last standing Kaiser decided to ignore all forms of subtleties as he turned and ran away, and when Seth tried to follow, the ground in front of him shattered and 5 chains each with a pointy head rose from the ground, blocking his way and then attacking him.
Seth not wanting to let the cultivator escape decided to get more serious as he flicked his left hand and red appeared in it.
Wielding black with both hands, Seth purred his qi into it, saturating the greatstaff with his qi and then he swung it at the approaching snake chains his blue flames entwining with his red fiery beam as it left red.
Seth's attack left a long curved arc of destruction, the chains getting completely obliterated as the attack charged on and after the fleeing Kaiser quickly catching up with him.
While Seth's attack failed to take the life of the man seeing as he reflexively moved out of the way of the attack, it had perfectly taken away the man's lower body.
Right now, Seth was walking up to a man who had just half his body, the man desperately using his qi to stop his guts and blood from spilling out of him, but if the man's expression was anything to go by, Seth guessed he wouldn't last up to a minute.
"Please" the man barely managed to groan out, his eyes looking up at Seth with desperation, and in them, Seth could see the deep desire to live.
Staring at the man, Seth could only imagine the pain he was about to go through, as the flames which burned around him suddenly expanded and consumed the man in their embrace, a loud scream of anguish leaving the man's mouth as he died not up to 10 seconds later, his gut spilling out, as it was roasted to cinders.
With one of his three enemies confirmed dead, Seth turned around to stare at the last know location of the other two.
For the other 1st stage Kaiser whom Seth had shot out of the air, Seth could see his
burnt corpse on the ground, the man making no reactions when Seth moved over and sent his charred body flying away with a kick.
"And that makes two," Seth thought, turning to look for the 2nd stage Kaiser, but other than the burnt scattered pieces of the earth which the man had used to cover himself, Seth's eyes couldn't identify anyone.
Seth moved over to the spot where his fireball and the man had collided, suspecting that the earth user had perhaps buried himself underground or was waiting for him in ambush, but his suspicions were put to rest by the loud shout of his translator.
"Sir the man escaped while you were battling with his comrade" the translator shouted, his words reaching Seth who turned and looked up at him.
Staring at the man, Seth nodded in acknowledgment of his words, but within him, he couldn't help but feel frustrated at his poor sense of awareness of the battlefield.
While others could focus their eyes o their opponents and use their soul sense to regularly check on their surroundings, Seth could only keep his body sense on alert and lock on to the enemy that moved close to him, he couldn't keep track of them if they decided to sneak away
Shaking his head at his shortcomings, Seth's eyes shifted to the blue fiery line which hung over the air, connecting him with the translator and the crowd behind him, the line through which he extended the power of the blue flames and protect the entire crowd in the blue dome.
"This can't continue" Seth muttered as he called off the flames, the blue dome which hung over the crowd fading away.
Perhaps right now everything had worked out, but in the long run, Seth knew that using the blue flames in combat while at the same time using it to protect the crowd was not going to be feasible.
The very noticeable qi consumption combined with the risk that someone might figure out how to break the thin connection between Seth and the crowd was quite a problem, and so after mulling over it for a minute, he came to a decision.
Holding the necklace in his hand, Seth poured his qi into it while also mentally giving the presence within it a set of commands before he began walking toward the translator.
With the dome which once covered everyone gone, a sea of people came flooding from around and rushing to join the herd of what they believed was a well-protected crowd.
Seth could see the translator holding onto his family and the pregnant woman, having them continuously move backward he screamed a set of words at the rapidly increasing and approaching crowd, trying to get them in order.
Seth could see a look of desperation appear on the translator's face as he tried to organize the group of frightened civilians who had seen a ray of hope.
Seth could see the translator looking back at him from time to time as he tried in vain to create order, and it wasn't long before his fears came through as bodies that were too close to the translator began exploding in dozens, cries and screams accompanying the brutal deaths.
His mind thinking about how to deal with the next set of troubles, Seth's subconsciously flicked his fingers, releasing his finger beams at those members of the crowd who stood within 5 feet of the pregnant woman, until at long last, the method of deaths or perhaps the screaming of the translator, or maybe the advice from those who had been in the crowd earlier finally registered in the minds of the new additions and they fell in line.
Despite the gruesome massacre, Seth's brutality did nothing to damper the growth of the crowd behind him as the crowd swelled to about 700 people, all of them standing more than 7 meters away from the chosen people as they waited to be led to their safe haven.
Believing everything to be in order, Seth raised his hand and waved the translator over.
