Chapter 314: The Fight Over The House
Chapter 314: The Fight Over The House
This alert made Bloom more confident in his ability to crush this town. He knew if he gave this mayor time then he would bring an enormous army he couldn't stand against.
Yet his timely arrival here and sealing the entire town helped him greatly. "Dash!" he moved to send one guard flying before killing him. "Hahaha, this is a very interesting situation," he laughed while hitting another guard and killing him.
Every single guard he killed was stripped naked off his gears. "The mansion is less than five minutes away what the f*ck!"
Just as he was doing fine and he was pretty much sure his clones were doing the same, a large circle suddenly appeared on top of the entire town.
"Damn! Such a grand skill this must be a scroll or something!"
He felt threatened and suddenly his previous confidence slammed to the bottom of the ground and was smashed into tiny pieces.
"I need to hurry," he started to run, evading all the NPCs coming at his path as much as he could.
"This won't work," just as the black circle above intensified in color, he started to realize how impossible it was to move towards the mansion in time.
"What is that?" as the color of that circle deepened, he suddenly noticed many void places inside it. "Are these the buildings here?"
He spotted similar shapes of the buildings around on that far circle up above. "So they can't attack the buildings here," this realization made him dart at once towards the nearest building and close the door behind.
It was a normal house for residents here. As he entered, he found three ladies standing in doubt in one corner while they held swords in their shaky hands.
"Stay out you filthy intruder!" one of them shouted and instantly he received a system message.
"System alert: player has been expelled outside the house. Player has less than a minute to either make those owners accept his presence or take control of the house before being expelled outside."
Bloom moved his gaze fast and spotted a fraction of that threatening circle above the town. "It's about to hit in a minute or two," he muttered and realized there was no time to go outside and search for more kind and welcoming hosts.
"Sorry," he honestly said before pointing his sword and using his dash skill to send one of the ladies off the ground, hitting the distant wall and slamming heavily on the ground.
"Slice, stab, stab, stab, slice," as for the other two, he started his own barrage of attacks. He knew they weren't a match for him and they also realized this fact.
Yet he had no other choice here and they forced his hands.
In less than half a minute he killed the three of them before a system notification came.
"System alert: player gained control over the house and now he became the owner of it."
Just before he could heave a sigh of relief, another notification kicked in.
"System alert: player's actions here have been reported to the mayor. The mayor is sending a punitive force to retrieve the house now. Be ready!"
Just as he read this alert, the door of the house slammed open and three guards stepped in.
"No problem then," Bloom sneered before welcoming those three shield bearers with his swords and sent them flying off. Yet just as he hit them, more started to enter the house, and the place started to look crowded.
"Damn it! sword tornado!"
He didn't hesitate to use his strongest skill to clear the entire place off the guards. They either were sent to fly to the walls or even went outside the house through the door.
And he didn't wait for his swords to return back as he took two more and kept stabbing and slicing his fallen enemies.
"Rumble!"
All of sudden and while he was busy dealing with those seemingly endless guards, the entire world around rumbled and the lights even faded away.
And then it looked like an apocalypse befell this town, slamming heavily on the entire town with a dominant black thunder thick tongues that kept dancing and thundering all over the streets.
All the guards were hit and suddenly their actions seemed to be decreased. The number coming through the door went down, but they never stopped appearing there.
"So it can affect them slightly, but won't kill them," he muttered, "not bad."
"System alert: player's clone has been hit by lightning and killed."
"System alert: player's clone has been hit by lightning and killed."
"System alert: player's clone has been hit by lightning and killed."
.
.
"System alert: player's clone has been hit by lightning and killed."
"System alert: player's clone has been hit by lightning and killed."
"System alert: player's clone has been hit by lightning and killed."
Twenty-nine alerts raced in front of his face, making him grit his teeth in frustration. "I didn't even enjoy ten minutes of their aid yet damn!"
He wanted to summon more and form a grand army of his clones. Per the system alert from before, his clones weren't limited by any time during the fight here.
But now he was forced to lose his biggest aiders from the beginning.
As for his pets, he hurriedly recalled them before entering the house. "It's good that I recalled them," he muttered while knowing now the reason behind all this large gush of NPCs towards the house.
"Let it be a slaughter house for all of you then," he ruthlessly said before waving his swords towards the upcoming enemies and waiting for his main skills to cool down.
"Dash!"
"Dash!"
"Sword tornado!"
As time passed, the entire world kept dimming while the flashes of his skills kept the place enlightened. Strangely the skill used here kept wreaking havoc for five minutes straight before finally the light shone again on this town.
"Finally it's over," Bloom took a deep breath before checking on the house around. He killed almost half of the entire guards in the town during these minutes, and now there was no one coming at him.
