Chapter 179: 179


    Chapter 179 – Battle of Liyang - Part 9


    Although it took Tong one second to kill and leap to another target, Huangfu Song and his men managed to react after Tong killed the 10th archer .


    Soldiers with shields in front surrounded him to limit his movement . Spearmen on the second line held their Javelins and were ready to toss them to Tong .


    "Brat! Surrender! You’re surrounded!"


    Tong looked around and noticed that he was surrounded so fast . Heughed .


    "Wow! I’m impressed . You have amazing disciplined soldiers, and they even moved without order! Should I say, as expected from the elites of the elites?"


    "If you knew it, you can surrender! Unlike those scoundrel friends of yours, I promise I will give you another chance in life!"


    Tong nodded in admiration . This person’s psychological persuasion was also good . He checked his system map to see who themander was . The name "Huangfu Song" appeared on the location of the speaker .


    ’Jackpot!’


    Tongughed out loud by reflex after realizing that one of the grandmanders of the three armies was here .


    "Has he gone insane?"


    "He’s lost it . "


    "Well, that’s obvious . Any cornered rat will show its true inner side . "


    The shield bearers gossiped after they saw Tong’s reaction . On the other hand, Huangfu Song did not think that way .


    ’His eyes and his expression aren’t clouded with fear! That’s not a despairedugh!’


    Huangfu Song had a bad premonition . From his ability to read people, Tong did not reveal a hint of an insane person or a despaired prisoner .


    He trusted his instinct . This young man had to die right now .


    "Men! Kill him now!"


    "HAHAHA! It’s toote! You can’t escape! [Time Stop]!"


    Though Tong wanted to scream "ZA WARUDO" as the skill activation, he was afraid that one of the [???] sins would act up again . Every time he acted like a chunnibyou, this [Sin] always got stronger .


    <click>>


    <time stop="" activated . ="" you="" have="" 10="" seconds="" remaining="">>


    The world became colorless as everything in this dimension was paused .


    "I wish I have a road roller in my inventory ..."


    Tong leaped over the shield formation that surrounded him andnded in front of Huangfu Song .


    As usual, Tong took out a sharp de and sliced his neck in one sh .


    <you have="" 8="" seconds="" remaining="">>


    He gazed at the boiling grease in his inventory menu . He wanted to burn everybody here again as he did in the other day . However, he felt terrible for the people in Puyang Region since they had nothing to do with this battle .


    If Tong used the grease fire again, the innocents in this area would suffer as the wind still blowing southwest .


    "But I have other ways to kill all of you!"


    Instead of using grease fire, Tong ejected hundreds of cubic stones into mid-air from his inventory . These cubic stones moved by the discharged force and came to a stop . These over-a-ton stones hung over their heads, waiting for the time stop effect to run out .


    "I guess I should call it the mini-road-da-roller-da!"


    <you have="" 2="" seconds="" remaining="">>


    "Whoops! Time to bail . "


    Tong started running away from this location to hide in the shadow of the trees nearby . He had not nned to retreat to his camp until he farmed all lifespans from these men .


    <you have="" 1="" second="" remaining="">>


    Tong snapped his fingers . ’Zero!’


    <the flow="" of="" time="" shall="" resume="">>


    "Huh?"


    "What!?"


    "Where did he go?"


    Tong frowned from listening to the voice of the panic soldiers . A-hard-object-hit-the-meat sound, crushing impact sound, or bone cracking noise did note . Aside from the soldiers’ voice, it was silence .


    ’What happened!? I thought I used those boulders to crush them . Why!?’


    "General!"


    "General is dead!"


    The soldiers already noticed that Huangfu Song’s neck was sliced open . He already fell on the ground and stopped breathing .


    Even though Tong stocked another 20,000 lifespans for the final reward of his soulmate quest, he was not happy with this development . Something was wrong during thest few seconds when he escaped back into the woods to hide .


    ’Dammit! If those stones killed the soldiers, my [Time Stop] skill would have been leveled up!’


    ’What exactly is going on?’


    Tong took a peek to see the situation outside as his radar map was filled with red dots .


    What he saw astonished and shocked him . The cubic stones were floating upward instead of falling . In mid-air, a white-haired old man in a Daoist robe was standing on one of the cubed rocks .


    ’Who!?’


    Tong looked at his radar map by instinct, yet the system map did not show him on it .


    ’How!?’


    "You must be thinking [How is this possible], right?" A haughty female voice sounded behind Tong .


    Tong sensed terrifying killing intent aura from the voice behind him . He leaped to the side by reflex .


    "I’ll repeat your words, little demon . It’s toote . You can’t escape!"


    A white hand pieced through his iron armor and dug into his chest, breaking his ribs . The hand grabbed tight onto his beating heart and squeezed it .


    Blood leaked out from Tong’s five orifices as multiple of his blood vessels ruptured from the sudden burst of blood pressure .


    "You can die, wicked demon!"


    The owner of the voice, the women in angelic robe, pulled out Tong’s heart from his body .


    Confused, shocked, panicked, Tong stared at the face of the woman . Behind her back, eight white tentacle wings danced in the air . Tong gathered thest bit of his will and strength to chant a word in his brain .


    ’Regen!’


    <you have="" consumed="" 5,000="" lifespans="">>


    There was no time to feel pity for the lost lifespans from this regeneration skill . Tong used this opportunity that the woman thought he was already died by her hand to kick the ground and dashed at full speed toward the east .


    He faced the 10 G-Force again because of the sudden burst of speed . However, this time, he did not ck out . His adrenaline ran into all of his blood vessels, and his brain overclocked in full power, making him be able to temporarily control every part of his body with a single thought .


    Within two seconds the angelic woman let her guard down, Tong dashed 300 meters away from her .


    "Huh? Is he still alive after all that? Oh, right . He has that [Yang Seed] skill . "


    This woman was none other than Liu Yang, the goddess-in-training and the sessor of Athena that infiltrated this dimension . At the same time, the old man who was in the air and was observing them was Zuo Ci .


    "Goddess, that’s enough . I’ve told you to give him a warning, not to kill him . "


    "Ha! He won’t die from just that . If I don’t kill him again, he won’t remember!"


    Liu Yang chased after Tong without waiting for Zuo Ci’s permission . She caught up with Tong within one breath . She reappeared by the right side of Tong as if she teleported .


    "As I said, you can’t escape!"


    A flying kick wasing toward Tong’s head .


    Thanked the overclock mode, he saw a kicking at him . Even with his heightened sense, Tong still felt that the kick was still too fast .


    Tong raised his right elbow and used his left arm as a support . At the same time, he pointed his index finger at the attacking woman .


    ’Eject, boiling grease!’


    All the hot oil from Tong’s [Inventory] was ejected in the shape of jet liquid stream as if it was shot out from a firefighter’s hose .


    Liu Yang’s kicknded on Tong’s arms, breaking them, sending impact to his head, and sent Tong flying into the river . At the same moment, the jet boiling oil mmed onto Liu Yang’s entire body, creating white smoke and burnt her white skins and clothes .


    Liu Yang screamed in pain as her skin reddened from the burn . However, it was temporary as her burnt skins were healing to counter the spreading wounds .


    Although the hot oil could not kill her, burning wounds were still a painful experience for her nheless . She red at the direction where she sent Tong flying in resentment .


    "HOW DARE YOU! [Goddess of War], Weapon creation!"

    <your [goddess="" of="" war]="" has="" been="" deleted="">>


    What she created was an armed ICBM which was set to detonate in 3 seconds . She flew on top of the river where Tongnded and was about to toss the missile into the river .


    "GODDESS! STAY YOUR HAND!"


    Zuo Ci also spread his ten ck tentacle wings and exerted all of his power to stop the missile from falling into the river . It stopped in midair and shuttled upward to the sky faster than light speed .


    The missile wasunched into space within a second . It exploded in the void without creating a sound .


    Liu Yang looked back at Zuo Ci with a frustrated expression . She had just sacrificed her best skill to kill this heretic demon, but this geezer stopped her .


    "You’ve wasted my skill! I demandpensation!"


    Zuo Ci squinted his eyes . This woman still did not know her ce . Besides, his status had tremendously changed into something else that she should not be able to bte him anymore .


    "Be quiet!"


    With a snap of fingers, a lightning cage trapped Liu Yang inside and the electric current zapped into her body .


    "AAAAAAAHHHHHH!" The high-pitched scream resounded the night, alerting both Tong’s soldiers and Imperial soldiers .


    Zuo Ci snapped his fingers again . The cage and the goddess were teleported elsewhere, leaving Zuo Ci alone in mid-air .


    On the river, Tong was floating face-up . Blood was running out from his nose and ears . Thest kick of Liu Yang gave him a concussion . If Zuo Ci left him alone, he would cause permanent severe brain injuries .


    Tong also tried his best to stay awake despite his severe injuries . The clock in the system menu showed 11 . 35 PM . He had to wait for another 25 minutes before he could use his regeneration skill again .


    Zuo Ci dropped himself and stepped on the river . One of his tentacle wings touched Tong’s forehead . He chanted .


    "[Soul of Charity], Heal!"


    The wing turned into a spirit of a young girl . She poured light into Tong’s head, and all his injuries were healed in an instant .


    The spirit reverted into a tentacle wing and returned to the back of Zuo Ci again .


    Tong stared at Zuo Ci in astonishment . He had heard from the system goddess that he should be cautious about these beings .


    "Nice to meet you, young man . I’m Zuo Ci, the administrator of this . "


    "You havemitted great sins that I have toe here personally to warn you!"</your></you></the></you></you></you></time></click>
