Demon Slaying System - Chapter 106
As whole of the track was illuminated by bright shining lights of white, shadows of these puppets are prone to be formed as a result. Which may be connected to one other creating a invisible path for mark to exploit.
” Sigh! Red king you had forced me to reveal an another card! ” Bellowing internally, mark activated his darkness extract, and slipped through the shadows on the floor, before stopping at the center of his army.
As soon as he reached to the center, the thing he was waiting for had activated.
Clang!
” What’s going on with the brain of this levi to begin with? ” The spectators were startled to see a sudden change in the pattern, the troops were maneuvered.
The spectators didn’t knew that Mark was an array master, so they could only reason the changes going on the test track was levi’s thing.
The disordered puppets repositioned themselves into giant circles, with blue elites on outside, surrounding the black troops inside.
With tall wall like shields of blue elites, fenced with sharp blades and long spears pointing out, they started moving in circles like a giant ferris wheel, but this time horizontally.
The blue elites with their large build, struck the shields down to ground, and brought them closer to the adjacent ones in a phalanx, but dragged the Shields in rounds along the circles they were moving about.
The long spears and blades, which were protruding out had started trimming the enemies surrounding them.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Several sparks were generated at the beginning by the clashings, which later made the entire of the blue shields paint with the red of sparks.
The whole of the army acted as a single mechanical unit and slashed the whites before throwing them meters away from the original position.
Mark naturally was in the centre of the giant structure, made by interlocking units of the black puppets that binded among themselves, mechanically.
Mark at his current powers was capable of exerting strength, which was no weaker than a half step aura king.
So he played a crucial piece in the center which enhanced the momentum, with which the structure rotated.
The combined strength, this structure exhibited was no lower than an aura king.
So the white troops with their measly cultivation of initial order aura lord became slaughter targets, which earned exp points to mark.
One minute later.
” Haha… Never had the red king predicted that the attempt to separate me from my army has paid him heavily! ” Mark laughed in internally.
Earlier the red king had deployed a large part of his army to stop mark. So half the army had reached the other side and tried preventing his entry.
But at last, it paid the red king heavily. Not only was mark about to save his troops, he was killing a large chunk of white army while leveling.
All in all, the efforts of red king to deceive levi had turned into an experience points for mark.
Comming back to present, the blue cavalry had almost annihilated the black, but had equally sustained heavy injuries leaving only a few intact ones, for marks use.
” Hah! At last I am about to escape out this encompassment! ” Mark exclaimed in with a bright smile over his face.
But all of a sudden, the white troops acted strangely. Both the intact ones and the bodies which were killed had started floating to sky, before shortly flying towards the direction of white tower.
” What kind of sorcery is this? ” Mark doubted him vision for a while, before comming to notice that the red king, which originally was on top the white tower had decided to come down for battle.
It started merging it’s body with the army it called back, and was becoming larger with seconds passed by.
Within a matter of seconds, the Red king became a mega structure of hundred meters, a huge puppet dresses in long kings robes of red, with a long royal spear in gold, flashing rays of destructive red in his hands.
Screech!
Like before it made a huge screech before throwing that huge spear towards mark.
Boom!
The entire unit of mark got destroyed in a flash, with the debris of them scattered around in bits.
The scene was terrifying to watch, even the spectators who had watched tons of these test since young were startled.
They were startled, as this was the first time, they seen the mega transformation of the red king, whose powers were equalling a half step aura emperor.
Good thing that it’s might wasn’t comparable to an aura emperor, if not there wouldn’t even be an hope for the testers to pass the test.
The destruction had covered the entire floor of the fourth division, and almost killed mark, who had escaped the collision by hair breath.
Luckily mark managed to get out the structure, traversing back to the black tower in an instant, saving his own life.
” Fuck! How could this red king become strong all of a sudden? System is there a way to kill him? ” Mark asked without a moment delay as the red king was walking towards the black tower slowly covering tens of meters, in a single step.
” Ding! Responding to host! Yes, there’s a way to kill the Red king. Could host bear the pain resulted in the process? ” System replied back waiting for his answer.
” Pain! What pain hadn’t this mark not experienced till today? Just tell me… what’s that method you mentioned and I’ll try that, even if the feasibility is low, less than a single percentage, it’s worth a try! ” Mark bellowed in immediately looking at the looking at the figure of red king, which took back his spear from the ground, shaking the entire floor as a whole.
” Ding! … ” System made a ding before explaining mark the way to deal with him, but the way it spoke had shown mark that even system wasn’t sure weather he could pass this test by this way.
” Levi! I have an important mission to you, putting aside the irrelevant things occurred between us before, use your dark matter on it’s right arm and make sure that you immobilize it for a while! ” Mark exclaimed hastily.
” Why the hell do I have a need to listen your command, any way? ” She questioned him back, with a killing glare.
” You… are you longing to get slapped like before? ” Mark bellowed back with a threatening glare.
” You… ” Looking that the four were present around, levi did not want to embarrass herself like before, so she only grit her teeth hard before compromising to marks orders.
” Dark matter! ”
An orb of darkness started to form within her little palm, before expanding to a large sphere of a meter width.
Whoosh!
The black orb went straight towards the red king. But the red king made a mistake which he would regret later.
Using the spear in its right arm, he casually swung it towards the orb, only to find that it changed its trajectory moving away from the spear before hitting his right arm and dissipating later.
Pull!
The right arm was involuntary pulled in towards the ground, and attested tightly as if it was struck on super glue.
Screech!
The red king had fallen down to ground, and was present kneeling on his one knee barely managed to prevent itself from falling down flatly.
Slash!
Using the nails on it’s left arms as blades, it torn off it’s right arm, then trying to stand back, only to found out at last that his newly generated right arm had been pulled down, back to the ground as before.
Screech!
Ear piercing loud noises made by the red king had reverberating throughout the fourth division.
” One minute! ” Bellowing it weakly, levi fell down to ground in a half awake state.
” Heal her after i go down to deal with that Red king! ” Mark bellowed loudly.
At the same time, he exclaimed internally ” Why did the system asked me to do this shameless thing? How is that going to help me in clearing this fourth division! ”
” Levi, don’t take this to your hear for real! ” Exclaiming it internally, Mark went towards her before taking the half awake state of her in his little arms, hugging her tightly like some long lost lovers, before kissing her on top her forehead with few fake tears in his eyes, as if this was his last time meeting levi, shortly jumping down to the floor to fight the red king.
” Bo…Bo…Boss! Why did he… and why were there tears rolling down his eyes before? ” Clain exclaimed stuttering.
” Boss, just what were you trying to do earlier? ” Instead of answering her question, Gregor muttered in with shock.
When others couldn’t get a clarity of what’s happening around, things became clear when they saw mark descending down to fight the red king alone, all by himself.
Bam!
The red king which spot the ant sized mark in front of him, descended it’s left palm to smash him to paste.
” No! ” The four bellowed in, when they saw the scene of mark getting squashed.
But they made a sigh of relief, when no blood was found littering on the floor.
Mark dug a tunnel through the giant palm of the red king, moving straight towards the central core.
But the ridiculous healing rate had troubled him deeply.
Several spikes of metals were piercing him repeatedly, though he used resonance to continuously break through his way in, it wasn’t enough.
All his body was cut repeatedly by healing pieces of metals, which made his way in difficult.
” Ah!~~~~~ ” The process was extremely painful, as if hundreds of blades were piercing him from all sides, presenting him with glimpses of hell.
Like a parasite mark entered his way in and was crawling to the direction of core like a digging mole.
One minute later.
for visiting.
Crack!
The effect of Dark matter had ended and the red king became too furious to see a thing entering his body. He directly plucked out his entire left arm to remove a parasite named mark.
” Light… No I need to hasten a little! ” Mark by this time had reached till the shoulder part of the red king, few meters away from chest, but the other side of the tunnel was wide opened, as the red king was trying to throw him out his body.
” Resonance! Resonance! Resonance damn it! ” Using all his might mark started digging to center, even if he necessarily had to undergo mana deficit.
The red king, like some mad man was dismantling his shoulder and thrown it off to a side, looking for mark in the insides.
Screech!
A loud screech was made in anger when no traces of mark was found in the shoulder piece, naturally mark successfully lept into the chest piece, shortly following his way in to the central core and falling well into the golden brown liquid which felt pleasant to his body.
” Ding! Host levels up! ”
” Ding! Host levels up! ”
Blood which was gushing out his wounds ceaseless had stopped thereafter, and his wounds started closing in, shortly promotion his cultivation to level 55 and then to 56 instantly.
” Haha! My level increased, did I enter the mana core? ” Mark examined internally.
” Ding! Host levels up! ”
” Hahaha… I’ll suck you till you become rock dry! ” Mark bellowed in, shortly activating his boundless impetus body.
Red king, just as the over powered strength of his, it had a weakness, it could not derive mana from the floor. Once all its mana was consumed it’s a dead piece to harvest.
Mark originally felt pleasant with the streams of mana flowing in, but shortly felt whole of his body trembling with pain, as if all his meridians were burning on hot iron pan, and his body to a meat piece, fried directly in steaming oil.
” Ah!~~~~~ ” loud screams made in agony were comming from the body of the red puppet. People quickly figured it out to be mark.
The noise went around for an entire minute, before it disappeared it’s traces gradually.
Mark went unconscious, yet was sucking up the entire worth of mana from the red king. Which was composed of the entire army of the enemies, mark had to deal with before.
So the mana was terrifying in quantity, not easy to be absorbed faster, by marks current capabilities.
Pluck!
The red king had to do a last ditch resort and pluck mark out its body, by removing the whole central core at once.
But unfortunately, the body of the red king became paralysed, shortly giving out. When most of its mana was consumed by little mark.
A large core like heart, surrounded by many viens like connecting channels were clearly visible out, when the right arm of the red king struck in, to pluck it out.
Amidst the large structure in faint golden brown, a tiny object was floating in its center, which was found out to be mark.
Crack!
Several cracks started to form and the whole body of the red king dissipated into air, as if it wasn’t present there to begin with.
After the smoke was cleared, a small silhouette was found unmoved, Gregor and others had moved down to congratulate their boss, only to find that his body had also started to dissipate slowly turning into bits of golden light, but at an extremely slow rate.
Levi who now saw the figure of mark dying out sat next to him and cried out one word ” Why? ”
” So time had came for that! ” exclaiming internally, Mark popped out a small wooden box from no where, and tossing it straight into her arms with a wide smile on his face, filled with golden veins, he then spelled ” Cause I was responsible for befor… ” before he could finish exclaiming his words, the whole of the mark’s figure dissipated into dust of gold, leaving no trace behind.
” No! ” All four besides him started crying out for their boss. Though they were acquainted with Mark like some few hours ago! The feelings they developed for him was no way lower to that of an admirable leader.
After grieving around for few minutes, they took the head sized core which was lying few meters away from mark and cleared the fourth division.
All the foregoing tests were easily passed by the others, and they obtained the right to challenge an ranker few days from today, to officially become a ranker of masters division.
Control center
” How could that kid die as such? Something seems wrong to begin with! ” Gilldart muttered in.
