Chapter 103: Blood Bath
"Attack!" Undel unleashed a blinding light of power that instantly crashed into Carter's body.
Following his attack, dozens more of Aresoul Magicians focused their peak strength! Hundreds of different magicians completely flourished with 50 percent of their strength!
The Aresoul, like all the Nations, had made plans for almost every situation, but a Founder showing up at the base was high up on the list. Thus, they immediately attacked with all their strength. Hundreds of doorways full of Ki slowly snaked outwards and smashed into a growing cloud of smoke. Instantly, Carter seemed to disappear before a large explosion ripped apart the land.
Boom!
The ground for a few meters got ripped apart and a large crater appeared where Carter once stood. A nearby Aresoul lower class soldier hadn't been able to move in time. Thus, his body got sent flying into the air and crashing into the stage where Una looked on in disbelief.
He flew right past her and crashed into Kreal as he fumbled for the keys in his pocket. Undel had given him the keys yesterday and challenged him to choose death over his future. Kreal had a real chance of becoming a Commander or even a leader of one of the Twenty Stations! Would he really give that up for a girl?
"Well, this sucks," Kreal saw a body flying towards him and crossed his arms. His torso the next moment seemed to disappear into a nearby tree, bending it and causing it to immediately split into pieces.
Boom!
A few more final explosions crashed into the growing crater. At the same time, Undel tossed out his arm.
'All men! Stand back!" Undel waved behind him and pointed at the guard towers. "Get in formation 96! We can't let him escape!"
Undel had always wanted to have a reason to get promoted, but his strength compared to many others was simply not measuring up. However, the Aresoul also had meritorious promotions. If he managed to kill a Founder of the Horned, his future would be carved in stone!
As such, his passion seemed to somewhat blind him from the proper manuever. If he decided to not look good, and instead told everyone to keep attacking with all their might. Carter might have really been in trouble.
However, Carter simply sighed and looked down at his bucket. With the water leaking out, his eyes seemed to turn almost pure evil. Looking at it in the smoke, blinding him from all around him, he sighed and gently jumped from the ground.
Swoosh!
Carter landed on the platform by Una and gently grabbed the Ax that had fallen by her side. Waving his arm, the neckbrace around her instantly fell off. However, her tears had not yet abated.
"Una, get me more water," Carter cracked his neck. "Go that way. I'll go get a new bucket."
"Carter… You-you really saved me," Una rushed to hug him before he hit her with the bucket. "She almost instantly remembered the tales of Founder Carter, and grabbed the bucket."
Founder Carter had really pinned the nail on the crazy in his last 100 years. Some said because he was trying to break through to above the S rank, he'd intentionally let himself live in a strange stage. However, he also really did some crazy shit! Una remembered him breaking a mountain for no reason or, well, because he simply wanted to see the sky, so of course she did what he wanted!
"Good girl," Carter sighed and looked over at Undel who seemed to be standing in the center of a star. All the men behind him had between 5 and 8 doorways open that fully embraced their power. However, not a single one of them wasn't terrified of staring at one of the revered Founders.
Frankly, if the Founders hadn't gone completely bat shit crazy, the Horned would be the strongest Nation! However, this one didn't seem insane at this moment! Founder Carter looked angry beyond belief! And he kept staring at the damn bucket!
"I… I think you're the one," Carter turned and made sure Una had found a clear path to safety, "Get me a damn bucket! Do you hear me!"
"Fire 50 percent!" Undel waved his arm. "Damn it! Break every bone in his body!"
"Hmmmm, I expected that," Hundreds of blasts got shot at Carter as he jumped into the air. He turned and smiled, shattering a cloud with a small pillar of Earth beginning to form behind him. At the S rank, turning any type of Ki into Earth Ki became possible! Basically, from thin air, he started to create an extremely terrifying spear of earth! He sighed and watched a large cloud of smoke coming into the air before he remembered something from a long time ago.
"I once made a promise… To someone… Not to do something," Carter sighed and dropped his arm. "I guess if I kill all the Aresoul it will shift the balance of the Furnace. I guess I'll just kill that idiot."
Carter instantly appeared in front of Kreal and picked him off the ground. A few trees behind him toppled over from his quick movements, the ground shattering beneath him in several directions.
"You? Who made you kill her? TELL ME NOW OR YOU'LL DIE INSTAEAD!" Carter smacked Kreal three times in the face, and then smacked him again for good measure! Hurry up! Your mother made an idiot or something? Tell me!"
"Undel. The guy in the center of formation 97." Kreal coughed out blood and shook his head. "I-I'm sorry. Tell her I'm sorry."
"Yeah, hopefully she'll catch you," Carter stepped off his back foot and tossed forward with all his strength. His muscles instantly bulged before a person shot through the sky and pierced the clouds. Carter shook his head, wondering if he'd overdone it. He had gotten really close to the area above the S rank, and sometimes forgot to hold back.
"Sigh, he might really hit her," Carter walked into the cloud of rising smoke and crossed his arms. "Ugh, so disappointing. Maybe if they give me a bucket I'll forgive them?"
Carter stepped off his back foot and caused the smoke cloud to burst into ten pieces before he made sight of Undel dropping his jaw in disbelief. With only 1 percent of his power remaining, after fighting Kreal last night, he could barely create a small shield before a fist touched against his cheek.contemporary romance
The force of it was so intense that he felt himself pick off the ground before he saw his shadow disappear from the floor.
Boom!
Undel spun into a mountain so sharp it seemed to cut the landscape. A second later, a cloud of blood appeared where he hit the rock. At the same time, Carter sighed and watched the men around him slowly falling to the floor.
"That's for my bucket, you asshole." Carter sighed and shook his head before smacking a soldier to his side. "Now you, tell me where the damn exit is and bring me a bucket! Otherwise, I'm about to shove his head up your ass!"
