Chapter 68: Trapped
Chapter 68: Trapped
"Bei. Help me with Mind Whisper. I want it to reach everyone, including the frost dwarves freed from the hatred," Minato used his own Mind Whisper to his beloved vulgar princess.
Bei immediately replied, "I will write an invisible circle for you."
Besides two magic circle types, Bei could seamlessly add layers after layers and other additional effects.
The invisible magic circle was naturally one of the most complex tricks. No one from the low world would be able to achieve that feat.
Bei conveyed Minato's words to everyone.
Minato's focus heightened more after he focused intensely on his current enemies.
It wasn't just one Overlord Enemy.
At least twenty of them had surrounded Minato.
'The first one comes... from right!' Minato inferred with his Overlord Instinct.
And his guess was correct!
A strike landed on his palm! Minato promptly closed it to catch the man.
To no avail!
The man's hand slipped away, and he disappeared again from Minato's view.
Minato closed his eyes again.
He moved his hands a few times, missing the opponents by a hair's breadth! He was so close, yet it was not enough!
Minato also paid attention to any long-distance attacks. For a second, he wanted to drop that to utterly focus on the opponent's bodies. That was a wrong thought that Minato didn't go for as he just felt a weird feeling within him.
It was his instincts telling him to focus on everything around him.
At last, Minato moved around. He let out punches and kicks that stopped the opponents briefly.
Though it seemed like he hit nothing, the truth was that each of Minato's moves scared the Overlord Enemies.
Minato wasn't fast.
He was just reading them well, to say nothing of his adaptation.
However, they would understand its principles if Yuna revealed herself and her physique.
Minato sometimes saw Yuna's speed, and he also dual cultivated with her. Minato wouldn't utterly lose against opponents whose forte was the speed in a low world and even in a medium world.
It was undoubtedly impossible for high worlds as people who could rival Yuna inhabited those lands.
Alas, Minato's physique surely would reach the high level before such words!
"I will stop you now," Minato declared.
Was it arrogant? Yes, it was.
But that was the path of the Overlord. He had to be arrogant so that he could feed on his enemies' apprehension and fear!
Even though Overlord Enemies were well aware of every Overlord's power system, their hearts momentarily stopped. Minato's declaration boosted his instincts, and he was sure his plan would work.
That plan was to trap one of them.
The bravest and the strongest Overlord Enemy challenged Minato.
His body tensed and focused intensely. In his eyes, Minato's reflection boomed, and his smirk was well recorded.
That man's vision then spread forward as he rushed toward Minato at his peak speed! No, his speed broke through his limits, and he went beyond his acme!
That speed surprised Yuna a little, but not Minato!
He promptly turned around, "Release!"
His magic circles stopped working at once!
Minato's box let the Evil Seed drop onto the ground, then Minato quickly conjured a new box! A box that would trap his enemy!
And it did!
"Thanks for strengthening my magic circles. I think this is the first time I drew them so fast," Minato smiled, then jested a little, "And I think I've had enough of trying to touch the male's hand. I would rather hold beautiful ladies' hands."
"Well done, Overlord," A man trapped in the box briefly laughed, then closed his eyes.
He believed in his death, but also his buddies.
They wouldn't just let him die beneath Minato's power, and that was indeed the truth.
Five enemies attacked Minato in tandem.
Their fists converted their high speed into strength, bringing vast pressure onto Minato. That pressure slowed down Minato, but he defended himself with the box he'd used to trap the man.
Using it as the shield, he blocked the most punches while his hand intercepted one of them! Another one landed on his head, but Minato stood straight, and he seemed too fine!
"Your physique is also outstanding... What kind of Overlord are you?" A man whose punch trembled against Minato's head asked.
Minato shifted his eyes to him, "I happen to know just one Overlord. You are free to share your knowledge before I kill all of you."
His magic circle shrunk then.
It shrunk again... and again...
It kept shrinking until nothing but a paste of blood, flesh, and bones mixed with other juices. That small box disappeared after Minato flicked his fingers.
All juices fell and splashed onto the ground.
Overlord Enemies disappeared again.
One of them shouted, "Let me tell you then! In our long lives, we have never seen an Overlord whose power sucked the hatred from the dungeon! You might be the first man to own the Overlord Harem!"
"You really know how to flatter. Thank you," Minato smiled.
The same man chuckled, then achieved the same feat. His body tensed and burst out with the speed he had never felt!
Alas, his fate was likewise the same!
Minato trapped him in the box, then asked, "Do you know about other Overlords who stand out?"
"I don't," he replied, "All Overlords flaunt either high magic circles aptitude, rune aptitudes, or any other common to high worlds' powers."
"Okay," Minato shrugged, then his box shrunk.
More rockets landed on him.
All those were Overlord Enemies. Their forte didn't pose any problem to Minato anymore. He could trap them all in his magic circle box.
Were Minato strong enough to summon many of those, Overlord Enemies would've been long since dead.
Still, their forte allowed Minato to bring more out of his body and magic circles. Those people did their job, and it was time to clean up!
"It's weird how they didn't try to attack me in tandem after one failure," Minato replied as he turned around.
He stared at the Evil Seed that went out of control.
Its miasma spread into the dungeon's floors...
It seemed like Minato's efforts had slipped away from him, but he just chuckled, "This whole dungeon became mine the moment I stepped in."
He lifted his hand, then sealed the Evil Seed. It was sensitive due to the sudden influx of immense amounts of hatred.
It suddenly lost that source, causing it to become unstable and out of control.
In Minato's box, Evil Seed became docile and the same as ever.
Bei's voice replied to Minato's words then, "Their joint attack was because you trapped their comrade. Once they knew he was gone, they returned to their pattern..."
Yuna added, "They also confirmed Minmin's physique. It's tough as diamond, so they would've looked like clowns the more they attacked you. It would increase your strength further, and they wouldn't die with their heads high this way."
"Heads high... It's all about pride..." Minato nodded, then glanced around.
All dungeon races gawked at him in reverence, even the elves who had been long since aware of Minato's strength.
Their respect grew higher for him, though.
Minato basked in their attention, then chuckled, "Let's clear the tower and get our rewards."
