Chapter 158: Let The World Taste Pain For Once!
In the valley, after the two hundred shield bearers of the Four Major Powers fell neatly to the ground, the whole place became deathly silent. The apprentice-level archers on both sides of the road were especially stunned, their eyes almost popping out.
“How is this possible?”
“What exactly did they just do?!”
Faced with the suddenly dead shield bearers, everyone was dumbfounded. They had no idea what the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall disciples had done to so easily pierce through A6-grade heavy shields, and even simultaneously penetrate the A6-grade armor behind those shields.
One had to know that even if a Quasi-Martial Artist used a B2-grade compound bow with B2-grade arrows and struck with full force, they would at most pierce an A6-grade heavy shield and knock the shield bearer back a few steps.
To pierce an A6-grade heavy shield and then pierce A6-grade armor, that was something only a Beginner Martial Artist might be able to do.
But those people from the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall were clearly all ordinary people. Even wearing A6-grade battle armor, their strength only increased by one hundred kilograms. The idea that they could use B2-grade arrows to pierce A6-grade heavy shields with bare hands was pure fantasy.
“Boss Rosa, I’m not dreaming, right?” The young man of the Forest Race stared, dumbstruck, at the dead shield bearers of the Four Major Powers. “Those shield bearers aren’t playing dead, are they?”
Each of those shield bearers was at least an Advanced Apprentice. If they had been instantly killed by a Martial Artist, or even a Quasi-Martial Artist, he could have accepted it. But being instantly killed by ordinary people completely shattered his worldview.
“If you could survive with a big hole in your chest, then they might be pretending to be dead.” Rosalina looked at the fallen shield-bearing apprentices and spoke in a cool, indifferent tone.
Although Rosalina sounded calm, inside she was already in turmoil.
Ordinary people instantly killing shield-bearing apprentices was something unheard of.
However, for Rosalina, this still was not the most important point. What truly terrified her was that the attacks just released by the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members were so fast that even she could not react.
In other words, as long as the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members executed that move accurately against her, she would be dead for sure.
And as more than two hundred members of the Four Major Powers suddenly died in the valley, the rest of their people could no longer remain composed. Looking at the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members, their eyes were filled with fear.
Since the beam unleashed by the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members could kill the shield bearers, it could naturally also kill anyone wearing A6-grade armor.
“Kill!”
Just as the Four Major Powers fell into panic, Luo Wu Shang suddenly spoke from within the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall crowd.
Luo Wu Shang’s voice was calm and gentle, but in that moment all members of the Four Major Powers felt an unprecedented chill, as if this was the key that opened a beast’s cage, unleashing everyone from the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall to slaughter in all directions.
“Damn it! Vinsonk! Take them out, now!”
Dibos watched the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members charging in all directions and instinctively gave the order to the burly middle-aged Martial Artist in B2-grade battle armor.
As for Gar Bei En and Gais Peiwen beside him, they were frightened by the sudden charge of the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members and were momentarily stunned.
However, the Beginner Martial Artists in B1-grade battle armor following them stepped forward to shield the three.
Whether Dibos, Gar, or Gais, as the eldest young masters of their families, they were usually high above others, their words deciding life and death. Each of them had the strength of a Limit Quasi-Martial Artist, but they had never truly experienced life-and-death combat.
Suddenly facing a battle that could threaten their own lives, their fear was perfectly normal, just like every newcomer’s first time on the battlefield, instinctively terrified in the face of unknown life and death.
On the other side, Vinsonk, the Limit Beginner Martial Artist of the North Ao Family who had received the order, immediately began to command the battle without hesitation, directing the Four Major Powers to counterattack.
“Everyone, calm down. To unleash that kind of attack, they have to throw out the arrows. As long as we do not let them touch the thrown arrows, they are just a bunch of ordinary people!”
Vinsonk’s angry shout instantly calmed the terrified members of the Four Major Powers. Seeing the charging Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members, they became much more composed.
They began using their absolute strength and speed, as well as their superior numbers, to suppress the members of the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.
Counting everyone, the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall had no more than about two hundred and forty people. Among them were over one hundred ordinary people in A6-grade battle armor. Even a Quasi-Martial Artist with A6-grade weapons would find it hard to injure them. But they were still just over one hundred ordinary people whose strength and speed, boosted by A6-grade battle armor, only matched that of Beginner Level Apprentices.
Everyone present from the Four Major Powers was at least an Advanced Apprentice. Any one of them could easily suppress a newcomer from the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall whose strength was only a little over two hundred kilograms. Two of them together could completely immobilize a newcomer wearing A6-grade battle armor, not to mention those Obsidian Martial Arts Hall newcomers without A6-grade battle armor.
One could see a nearly 9-meter-tall, slightly bloated newcomer from the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall looking toward several Limit Apprentices in A6-grade armor within the crowd, his face breaking into a broad grin.
“Six of them! This time I’m going to make a huge profit!”
As this Obsidian Martial Arts Hall newcomer spoke, both the members of the Four Major Powers and the nearby new players looked at his ecstatic expression in confusion.
“This guy is that fierce? Those are six Limit Apprentices! He dares to rush them?” A super rich player in A6-grade battle armor, currently being suppressed by an Advanced Apprentice, stared in astonishment at the newcomer without A6-grade battle armor who was charging into the crowd.
“He’s probably trying to draw attention to give others a chance,” another super rich player said casually.
Right now, only the newcomers in A6-grade battle armor could truly fight against the Four Major Powers. Any other newcomer who threw B2-grade arrows would immediately send the Four Major Powers into a panic like startled birds, making them dodge early and never giving a chance to hand-craft a Super Electromagnetic Cannon.
At best, they could attract the monsters’ attention, which was not very useful.
But before this super rich player could finish speaking, he saw that tall newcomer suddenly grab a Quasi-Martial Artist who was about to subdue a newcomer in A6-grade battle armor.
“You’re the one, my friend!”
“Let the world feel some pain!”
“Detonate!”
Before the family’s Quasi-Martial Artist could react, cursing this lunatic who had grabbed him, the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall newcomer began to expand violently.
Boom!
A blazing explosion erupted in an instant, sweeping a five-meter radius. Countless needle-like strands of fire energy filled the space.
In that moment, the chaotic battlefield fell completely silent.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the site of the explosion.
Within a five-meter radius, everything was charred black. On the scorched ground lay eight bodies: the self-detonating Obsidian Martial Arts Hall disciple, the Quasi-Martial Artist in A6-grade battle armor, and six Advanced and Limit Apprentices in A6-grade armor.
“Self-detonation?”
“What did he have on him?”
The members of the Four Major Powers stared at the scattered corpses, all of them shocked.
They had never expected that members of the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall could not only hand-craft beams, but also self-detonate, and with such terrifying power that even a Quasi-Martial Artist in A6-grade battle armor had been blown to death. It was unimaginable.
A6-grade battle armor was incredibly tough. Even an electromagnetic grenade would at most make the person inside feel a little hot; killing them with it was basically impossible.
But somehow, whatever the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members had inside their bodies allowed them to completely ignore the defense of A6-grade battle armor.
In that instant, the experts of the Four Major Powers who were still grabbing Obsidian Martial Arts Hall members almost instinctively let go and even retreated several meters, nervously watching the surrounding Obsidian Martial Arts Hall disciples, terrified that one of them might lose their mind and blow up together with them.
“Just who are these people in silver-gray clothing?”
Far away, Rosalina, who had been watching the show, stared at the blasted corpses of the Four Major Powers, her beautiful eyes almost bulging.
Hand-crafted beams were one thing. As long as your strength was high and you watched out for the arrows, dealing with them was not that hard.
But what was this now?
They grabbed someone and blew themselves up. Such a ferocious faction was completely unheard of.
