Prime Originator

Chapter 443 - I'll Kill You!

Suddenly, one of the soldiers stumbled, and the large barrel slipped out of their control.

"Oh, no!" The soldier cried out loud.

However, a steady hand was firmly placed on the rolling oil barrel, bringing its forward momentum to a stop.

"Be careful. These are currently precious resources."

"Thank you, General Dales! I will be more careful next time, sir!"

Brigadier-General Dales nodded and urged with an encouraging tone, "Keep up the good work!"

"Yes, sir!"

The soldiers continued to roll the barrels to the designated spot.

Meanwhile, on the edge of the Great Wall's central region, the General Marquis and Supreme Elder gazed down at the battlefield below.

"These Wingrats are endless." Supreme Elder Haldir's brows furrowed deeply.

The number of Wingrats slaughtered already numbered in the hundreds of thousands, but their army showed no sign of reducing.

In the end, the wolves were too few in numbers. They were slowly being overwhelmed by the Wingrat's immense numbers. For each wolf, there would be hundreds to a thousand Wingrats ganging on it.

"Wingrats, huh? Is that what you call them? However, these wolves will not last. We need to do something about these rats. There's too many of them." General Marquis Hendrick commented before pondering deeply for a solution.

The Supreme Elder nodded.

If the situation were already this bad, he could not imagine what the case was for the Wildlands and Great Forest. He needed to check on his tribe and could not stay for long.

As Supreme Elder Haldir controlled the thorny vines to continue lacerating the Wingrats pouring out of the rathole, he thought out loud, "The Wingrats are only coming from the underground. If we can toss a great fire inside and plug up the rathole, we could suffocate them all to death."

"These Wingrats are pouring out of the rathole ceaselessly. It will be too difficult to put a good fire inside from there…" General Marquis stated before his eyes flickered with a solution. "However, it is easier to start it from the underground sewage system while they are still distracted by the wolves."

The underground passage was connected to the sewage system after the Wingrats burrowed their way through.

Even if they do not plan to smoke the rats, they had to seal that passageway. Otherwise, the endless tides of rats would pour into the Crawford Kingdom after they are done with the wolves.

"Then we better do it quickly. Those wolves won't last much longer." Supreme Elder Haldir stated.

"Without a doubt."

General Marquis Hendrick nodded before roaring, "Attention, men!"

"Yes, General!"

The surrounding soldiers immediately stopped and gave the General Marquis their rapt attention, awaiting further instruction.

"Change of plans. We will direct half of the fire and fuel resources to the central sewage system." General Marquis Hendrick said.

After that, he selected the strongest batch of surviving soldiers to follow him into the sewage system and locate the underground hole. Once he completed issuing his orders, he returned his attention to the Supreme Elder.

"Please take care of things here, Marquis Haldir." General Marquis Hendrick requested.

"Naturally."

Supreme Elder Haldir nodded.

General Marquis Hendrick left the Great Wall shortly after receiving the Supreme Elder's confirmation.

Sometime later, the Elder Gustavo and Young Master Judas arrived at the Great Wall. While they were flying high in the sky, they overlooked the situation below.

"It is as father predicted. It is not just the sea monsters that have become frenzied. Even the beasts in the west have gone crazy. This means that…"

Elder Gustavo nodded with a solemn look and said, "Right. These signs have confirmed it. The Cataclysm will indeed happen, and the world shall be plunged into a great upheaval once more."

"But we do know what kind of change the Cataclysm will bring to the world this time. The last Cataclysm pushed forward the evolution of all beings while the one before that ended the world. This next Cataclysm could bring us good fortune. Of course, it could also be the end of all life."

"Well. Looking at this scene right now, does Young Master Judas think the Cataclysm will bring good fortune to humanity?" Elder Gustavo asked with narrowed eyes.

Judas Cortez frowned.

"It's too early to tell. In the beginning stages of the last Cataclysm, it was said that the beasts also went on a rampage—"

"However, that is the beginning stages of the Cataclysm after the world brightened from the sun's powerful solar flare. Right now, that had yet to happen, Young Master Judas." Elder Gustavo corrected.

"Listen to the High Priest's prediction. Nothing good will come out of this Cataclysm. Since we have already seen what we came to see, we should return to the Cortez Fiefdom, Young Master Judas. I doubt the Overseer welcomes our presence here that much."

"You don't want to lend these people a hand, Elder Gustavo?" Young Master Judas asked, feeling somewhat unwilling to return after going such a long way to reach the Great Wall.

It was the first time he saw the Wildlands, even if he was only glimpsing at a small part of it from a distance.

Elder Gustavo shook his head.

"Why do we have to help them? They are doing fine on their own. Our intervention will only bring us unnecessary troubles."

"Didn't I cause some trouble back in the palace? I should make amends for my mistake by giving their people some help." Young Master Judas said, but there was no chivalrous glint in his eyes. Instead, there was only disdain when he looked at the weak humans below.

Elder Gustavo frowned immediately.

"Please do not cause any more trouble for me, Young Master Judas. Have you forgotten what you promised me before we set out? Just because there are few Transcendents here, it does not mean we can act as we please. The people above are ever watching." He lectured.

Elder Gustavo had seen Judas grow and knew what his character was like. Most likely, Young Master Judas only wanted to flaunt his strength in front of the people below.

However, they were only at the early stages of Preliminary Accession Transcendent Realm. This was nothing to boast about, much less in the Geyser Kingdom.

"Hm?"

Young Master Judas' attention was suddenly grabbed by something, causing him to turn his head to look. After a slight furrow, he immediately smiled, "They can handle rats and wolves, but what if a Transcendent-level lion beast joins the fray? They will definitely need our help then."

"What do you mean…?"

Elder Gustavo frowned, following Young Master Judas' gaze to see a 'lion' flying towards the Great Wall at shocking speed from a much lower altitude than them.

Since when could lions fly?

"Young Master Judas, that is not a Transcendent-level beast—!" Elder Gustavo tried to warn, but it was too late.

Judas Cortez had already flown over and shot a water slash directly at the 'lion.' The so-called lion was precisely Leon in his lion-headed cloak!

"Hm?"

The water slash was very fast!

In a short instance, the water slash closed most of the distance by the time Leon realized something was shooting at him! However, a brief moment was all he needed to evade the attack!

Swoosh!

Space slightly distorted while Leon twisted his body slightly, allowing the water slash to zoom past him. Even so, the tips lion-head cloak was nipped slightly, but no real damage was done to his Enchanted Equipment.

Leon's high-speed flight was brought to an abrupt stop before he looked up coldly.

"Unexpectedly, the person I was looking for would come throwing himself at me." Leon eyed the person above him with a sharp glint. Only the people he was looking, could fly so high up and with such ease as his mother had described.

The Tier 4 Bone Spear immediately appeared in his grasp.

At the same time, Young Master Judas paused with surprise after Leon glanced up at him. Unexpectedly, it was a person and not a Transcendent-level beast.

"Wait. Hold up, this was a mistake—"

Swoosh!

Veins bulged on Leon's arm before he threw the Tier 4 Bone Spear at Young Master Judas without much care for what the person was saying.

Since the person wanted a fight, it was a fight he was going to get!

The bone spear zoomed through the sky, heading for Young Master Judas at a greater velocity than this own water slash!

"Young Master Judas, look out!" Elder Gustavo warned at the top of his lungs, rushing over quickly while knowing full well he would not make it.

"Sh*t!"

Young Master Judas cursed, sensing the threatening power of the bone spear shooting straight at him. He immediately retreated while conjuring his best defense!

A wall appeared in front of him, spiraling at highspeed! Water Shield, it was one of the Water Awakener's most fundamental skill for defending!

However, the bone spear penetrated the Water Shield like paper! Young Master Judas widened his eyes in shock when the bone spear continued with great momentum and directly pierce through his body armor!

"What?!"

Elder Gustavo's eyes immediately bulged at the sight of the bone spear shooting straight through the young master's body armor.

That was a runic-enhanced armor!

By the time Elder Gustavo reached Young Master Judas's side, a hole had been punctured through his stomach! Although it was not a fatal shot, it caused Young Master Judas' face to be pale.

"Young Master Judas, are you alright?" Elder Gustavo asked with concern.

Judas Cortez glanced down at the hole in his stomach dumbfoundedly. Since he was young, when had he ever suffered such a terrible injury?

His shock quickly transformed into rage. His attack was a misunderstanding, but this person wanted his life! That was unacceptable!

He glared at Leon and furiously roared, "I'm going to kill you!"
