Armipotent - Chapter 1570: Interference 2
Centurion’s sword hit the empty air. Tang Shaoyang disappeared from his sight as his sword was an inch away from Tang Shaoyang’s chest. He was confused for a moment, but then he looked up.
Tang Shaoyang was right above Centurion. They were separated by three meters, but Tang Shaoyang was in the stance of using Heavenly Revoke. His sword was in his sheath, and his hand was at the sword. At the same time, the image of Heavenly Azure Dragon formed behind him, followed by the roar.
Together with the roar, Tang Shaoyang pulled his sword. With the distance, he was confident to hit Centurion. The double dragon roar resounded in the air. That was what Tang Shaoyang thought, but his sword met with a shield, a red blood shield.
Centurion managed to pull out his shield and blocked the sword. To Tang Shaoyang’s surprise, Centurion completely blocked his sword. The vampire pulled his shield at the same time, and he thrust his sword upward.
An inch away from piercing Tang Shaoyang’s left eye, he used a blink. He did not continue the attack and created a distance from Centurion. He was surprised how Centurion managed to defend his sword from such a distance. His enemy was smart enough to block his sword with a physical shield instead of a barrier. The barrier would break apart with his [Absolute Domination Energy].
“Hah…” Tang Shaoyang let out a small laugh, “An administrator truly can’t be trusted. Another one interferes with the trial and tries to kill the participant. In the end, the rules are just a joke.”
Centurion let out a sigh, slowly pulling his shield. He faced Tang Shaoyang while his free hand touched the ice. The moment his hand touched the ice, the ice broke apart. He did not respond to Tang Shaoyang, “Surrender now!” The order was for Novoa, his sister. If it meant losing his Administrator Class, he would do it for his sister.
Novoa came out from the ice, angry at herself as well as at Tang Shaoyang. Her gaze at Tang Shaoyang has changed into hatred from wariness. She was always wary of Tang Shaoyang before, but it changed into hatred after she witnessed how he killed her two cousins right before her eyes.
“Why did you have to kill them even though you know that we want to surrender!?” She did not immediately surrender from the trial because she had a question from Tang Shaoyang. She wanted to know why he killed them even though they were powerless.
Tang Shaoyang chuckled, shaking his head, “What a stupid question. You are quite strong compared to the others, but in the end, you are also just a spoiled princess. It’s so obvious I killed them because they wanted to kill me. Will you spare the lives of the people who want to kill you!?”
“Don’t even bring such an honor like Mourad. There’s no honor in the battle, only the winner and the loser. Kill or get killed!”
“Surrender right now, Novoa!” Centurion raised his voice.
“But Dinesen and Iversen’s bodies with him! We need to get their bodies, Brother. We need to give them a proper burial! They are still part of our family!” Novoa wanted her brother to ask for the two bodies.
Centurion shook his head because he knew Tang Shaoyang would not give up the two bodies. He knew how important sacrifices were for the Spirit Contractor.
“I don’t have that much time! Surrender right now!”
In the end, Novoa relented and surrendered from the trial. Her hatred for Tang Shaoyang deepened, “I will come back for you!” Those were her last words before disappearing.
“I see… So you are her brother. That makes sense,” Tang Shaoyang nodded, “Now I have to add one more person to my kill list.”
“No! You don’t need to add her name to your kill list. I will make sure she will not go after you, ever. The Valentine Family will not pursue this matter further. Our relation ends here.”
Tang Shaoyang was surprised to hear that from Centurion. He thought Centurion would kill him, so there was no need for him to add her name to the list. That was what he thought Centurion would say. But it looked like he did not want to escalate the conflict further. Of course, he did not believe what Centurion just said.
“Why would I trust someone who wants to kill me? You guys are quite shameless, huh? Even more shameless than me. I am not your naive little sister. But don’t worry, you don’t have to worry about your little sister because I will kill you right now.”
Centurion was strong, stronger than the Administrator he faced in the first stage of the trial. However, he was not fazed by how strong Centurion was. In fact, it just excited him even more.
Centurion shook his head and disappeared as well, teleporting back. That was right, Centurion did not try to fight Tang Shaoyang. He left without saying anything, no threat or anything.
Tang Shaoyang’s bubble of excitement burst out along with Centurion’s departure. He thought he finally would be able to test his limit once more, but he left him just like that.
“Okay, what now?” He turned around to check the other side. He was fighting less than twenty people. There should be more for him on the other side. His spirits and skeletons were still fighting, but a lot of bodies had fallen. It was clear his spirits and skeletons were an advantage despite the number difference.
“Let’s join to finish this early.”
It was as if they could hear him, they responded in unison through telepathy.
“NO!”
Their voices buzzed in his head at the same time, even the skeletons.
“Alright…” He shrugged and started to collect the bodies he killed earlier. There were nine bodies around. Then he ended up watching how the spirit fought. He thought of learning Vandir’s way of fighting, but then he saw the skeleton relaxing under the tree while his undead were fighting for him. He wanted to learn the Death Power, but there was nothing to learn about how Vandir fought. The skeleton carefully observed his summons, taking notes. One of his summons was also his undead.
