Picking Up Attributes From Today - Chapter 348
“Little fellow, come with me!”
As though a hawk swooping down on a little chick, Eric reached out his massive hand and grabbed at Meng Lei. Bathed in flames and giving off mighty divine power, he was as though a God of Fire from the heavens that had descended upon the world.
His action badly frightened the 100 “wild oxen” and sent them into a panic. They raced into the distance as though they had gone mad, causing the ground to shake and dust to swirl about everywhere.
“I’ve been looked down upon again,” lamented Meng Lei with a slight shake of his head.
He evaded Eric’s enormous hand with a flash of his form and said, “My friend, what’s the meaning of coming to blows the moment you have a disagreement with someone else?”
“He actually dodged it!”
Eric, the Fire Titan, was a little taken aback. A hint of ire came over his features right away, and he shouted, “Lowly native, die!”
Eight fire dragons rose into the air around him and lunged at Meng Lei with their claws brandished and their fangs bared. Then, they came together to form a prison of flames that trapped Meng Lei within.
“Come over here!”
Eric snorted and grabbed the prison of flames—together with Meng Lei inside—over to himself with a casual swipe. He warned, “You’d better behave, or else!”
Meng Lei broke into a slight frown and asked, “Who exactly are you guys? Why are you capturing me?”
Eric didn’t pay Meng Lei any heed. Instead, he flew toward the other Titans with the prison of flames in tow.
As though they were looking at a cheap and lowly ant, looks of aloofness, contempt, and high-and-mightiness adorned the Titans’ faces as they gazed upon Meng Lei.
“Answer my questions,” Gregg said aloofly, “If you dare utter so much as a lie, I’ll make you wish you were dead. The first question—what is this place?”
“I don’t know,” answered Meng Lei.
“You don’t?”
Gregg broke into a frown and said coldly, “Aren’t you a native of this world? How could you possibly not even know what this place is?”
“Who said I’m a native?” Meng Lei rolled his eyes and said, “Alright, you’ve asked your question. It’s my turn to ask mine now. Listen up, if you dare utter so much as a lie, I’ll kill all of you right away.”
“…”
The Titans stared at Meng Lei in astonishment. They hadn’t expected a native to actually have the nerve to talk to them like that. That guy was too full of himself!
Meng Lei didn’t bother himself with what the Titans thought at all. He asked, “Tell me, where are all of you from?”
“You worm, you’re courting death!”
Gregg’s countenance turned icy-cold at once, and a surge of pressure weighed down upon Meng Lei right away. The wave of pressure was exceedingly powerful, so much so that even most typical Great Demon Gods would find it hard to bear. However, it was as if it were non-existent to Meng Lei.
“How dare a mere high-level Sky Titan behave so audaciously in my presence? Who gave you the guts to do so?”
Meng Lei let out an icy snort, upon which an even more violent force crushed down upon Gregg.
Boom!
A huge jolt went through Gregg, and a shrewd glint shone in his eyes as he exclaimed, “You’re a high-level Sky Titan!”
“What?”
“He’s a high-level Sky Titan?”
His exclamation raised a great furor among the Titans.
Gregg’s words were tantamount to a hydrogen bomb going off with a thunderous boom in the Titans’ minds, causing loud droning in their minds as the blood drained from their faces.
The contempt, aloofness, and high-and-mightiness in their eyes disappeared in a split second. They were replaced with disbelief and a deep sense of fear and reverence.
High-level Sky Titans were absolute powerhouses even in the Thunderbolt Divine Realm, where experts were aplenty. They couldn’t not respect and revere them!
“I’ve surprisingly made a lapse in my judgment!”
Gregg had an overcast and sinister look on his countenance. His eyes bore into Meng Lei for a moment before he finally said, “Let’s go!”
Gregg was a high-level Sky Titan himself. However, he didn’t have the confidence to beat Meng Lei in a fight.
Rather than coming to blows with Meng Lei, only to gain nothing in the end, he might as well just leave at this point. Exploring the Boundless Plane at the fastest speed possible was what he should be doing at this moment instead.
Therefore, he made the prompt decision to leave.
“Go? Did I allow you to?” Meng Lei said dispassionately.
“What do you want, mister?”
Gregg gazed coldly at Meng Lei.
“You may leave, but not before answering my question,” said Meng Lei. “You may leave once you’ve answered it.”
“Surely you don’t think we’re afraid of you, mister?” Gregg’s voice was deep and low as he threatened, “I’d advise you not to make any trouble. Otherwise, the consequences are beyond what you can bear!”
“Hah!”
Meng Lei let out a peal of laughter. Then, he abruptly appeared right in front of Gregg and threw out a punch.
Boom!
Unable to react in time, Gregg took Meng Lei’s blow right on the chest. As a crisp snap rang out, Gregg’s chest also sank inward right away. One couldn’t even tell how many ribs he’d broken.
“Ugh!”
Blood spurted from Gregg’s mouth. A look of alarm and anger came over his countenance at once.
What alarmed him was the fact that Meng Lei actually possessed such strength, while what angered him was naturally the fact that Meng Lei had actually dared to attack him. He was an elder from the Theodore Titan Gods of the Thunderbolt Divine Realm! Just how revered was his position?
“Elder Gregg!”
“Are you alright, Elder?”
The other Titans were greatly alarmed.
“A difference in strength lies even among high-level Great Demon Gods.” Meng Lei blew the non-existent dust off his fist and said, “And I can beat 100 high-level Great Demon Gods like you!”
“You bastard!”
Gregg gnashed his teeth in a fury. However, Meng Lei’s strength had certainly astounded him. For Meng Lei to crush his ribs with a single punch, it meant that his physical strength surpassed his own.
However, what filled him with shock and horror the most was that he hadn’t even seen how Meng Lei had appeared before him.
“Can you answer my question now?” asked Meng Lei calmly.
Gregg took a deep breath as he suppressed his fury and compromised. “Go ahead and ask!”
“Forget it. Asking questions is too troublesome. I’ll just search your soul instead,” said Meng Lei with a shake of his head. He couldn’t be bothered to ask anymore.
Search his soul?
Gregg’s expression changed dramatically upon hearing what he said. He shouted hoarsely, “Mister, I’m Gregg Theodore, an elder of the Theodore Titan Gods from the Thunderbolt Divine Realm. Are you certain you want to go against us so utterly?”
“The Theodore Titan Gods from the Thunderbolt Divine Realm?”
Meng Lei chuckled. “What the heck is that? Sorry, but I’ve never heard of them!”
“You bastard!”
Gregg gnashed his teeth in a fury.
“Die!”
Since he had already decided to kill them, Meng Lei naturally didn’t hold back. Mysterious Ice of The Depths burst forth as he teleported in front of Gregg.
Crack!
Gregg, a high-level Great Demon God, was frozen where he was in an instant. He turned into a glittering golden ice sculpture and became still and motionless.
“It’s just the rest of you now!”
Meng Lei turned to the other Titans.
“Damn it!”
“Run!”
Scared witless, the Titans immediately turned into a dozen or so streaks of light that fled into the distance without any hesitation whatsoever, wishing they had been born with an extra pair of legs.
“That’s nothing more than just futile struggling.”
God’s Domain spread into the surroundings, instantly enveloping the whole area 10,000 miles of where they were. All the Titans were mid-level Sky Titans, and they moved at incredibly high speed. However, no matter how fast they moved, they would never reach the speed at which God’s Domain spread.
All of them were trapped where they were in an instant. They couldn’t move even though they wanted to and couldn’t escape even though they wanted to. They couldn’t even bat an eyelid!
Snap!
The Titans’ heads suddenly exploded with a light snap of Meng Lei’s fingers. Brain fluids shot out, and bits of flesh splattered everywhere as several divine cores flew over to Meng Lei.
“You devil! How dare you kill us! The Theodore Titan Gods will never let you off! You can just wait for their frenzied revenge to befall upon you!”
The Titans’ roars of fury and hatred rang out from within the divine cores. They practically couldn’t get any more f*cking unlucky! Having been sent to the Boundless Plane to carry out a mission, they had initially thought that they would be able to show their skill and shine and return with a bountiful haul this time.
Who would have thought that they would all be wiped out right after they had passed through the dimensional channel? This was practically enough to drive one mad!
“Revenge? I’m ready for it anytime!”
Meng Lei let out a peal of laughter. Then, he opened his Grim Reaper’s Eye and destroyed all the divine spirits in the divine cores.
It was Gregg’s turn after that…
