The Legacy System

Chapter 474 – 474: Losing Control?

"Yes!"

Even though she said that yes just to answer to that action of his, so it was more of a goodwill return, she said that confidently with the thought that she would die the next moment.

But something weird happened the next moment as she felt something seemingly enter inside her body, a weird screen appeared in front of her eyes, and then she felt dizzy and almost lost conscience.

Before she finally lost conscience she felt a bitter liquid appear in her mouth and slowly go down her throat, as a gentle voice seemed to directly contact her Soul Avatar,

"Don't worry, now you are fine! Nothing will happen to you!"

The one who was the most shocked by the whole scene wasn't Ice or Eric, but the Leader of the insurgent, he would have never thought that the poison would take effect at that moment.

To everyone, it looked like Ice had died on his hands, as Eric seemed to grow angry, enraged, and particularly vengeful as well. In simple words, he seemed to have lost it.

"How dare you!? Killing her in front of me! I Kill You!"

He seemed to have lost it so much that he was even unable to threaten the enemy grammatically correct. This thought got reinforced immediately after as well.

Eric's eyes turned bloodshot, while veins started popping all over his face, and he jumped in attack just like an angry and blood-seeking demon.

The target was none other than the Leader of the insurgents, which was incapable of understanding the current situation.

This poison shouldn't have worked for at least two more days, yet the results were right in front of him, even though he couldn't believe his eyes.

Not only that, even as an experienced soldier who had gone through numerous difficult situations, he still couldn't help but fear the current Eric that was coming for him.

After all, people were still able to hear to reasons and threats, but an animal, or monster that had lost the ability to think was extremely dangerous.

The effects of that could be easily seen with his own eyes, as Eric was running towards him using every bit of energy and stamina he may have to take his head.

Quite a number of knives and different sharp materials seemed to leave wounds on his body, and turn his current situation even more bloody, but he didn't seem to stop.

In but a few minutes, Eric had actually managed to close the distance to the Leader by half, despite the heavy crowd of people in front.

It felt like Eric had decided to die in that attack, with the sole purpose of taking the Leader's life.

That made the crowd in front of the Leader protecting him, develop their own thoughts. First, Eric seemed to be targeting only the leader and not them, so they didn't have to lose their lives.

They didn't have to exchange their lives with a chance for their leader to escape, it didn't make much sense, so they were more worried about their lives than their leader's life.

The second was about the people that had helped the Leader from the beginning, it looked like Eric would surely die the moment he killed the Leader, so they saw this as an opportunity.

They could not only get rid of the monster that had entered their house, but at the same time they could open up the Leader's spot for their selves.

The others might not know this, but they were all aware of the real idea behind the insurgence. Their Leader wanted to lead this place himself and turn it into his private palace.

With this place in their hands one day or another they would be able to train a formidable force and take a position in the top organizations and powers of this world.

Seeing this opportunity right in front of them, it would be extremely shameful of them not to take advantage of it, so they all started creating a distance.

How could a fox not understand how the other foxes thought, the Leader immediately understood the difficult situation he was in, but the truth was that he couldn't escape from it.

The best thing he could do right now was to quickly take care of Eric as soon as possible. He needed this damned monster to die if he wanted to continue living and be the rightful leader.

Seeing that he wasn't left with much of a choice he could only use his last remaining card, earlier than he thought.

He had intended of keeping it as a secret weapon, in case there was another idiot who thought of insurgence like him, but now he was forced to use it.

"Act now!"

'Bang~!'

With such a simple command, only one sound was heard, but this wasn't a gun sound anymore, but actually an RPG sound.

Some way this bastard had gotten his hands on an RPG but considering the noise and the incoming projectile Eric could easily determine that this was a handmade RPG.

Meaning that this thing was assembled from the parts of the guns and other things available in his Nightless Stone City.

He had to admit that whoever did that had quite the talent, but at the same time, he had to admit that he didn't like it in the least.

Not only was that darn thing going to destroy the infrastructure of his city, but it would also kill a lot of idiots around him, meaning a lot of lost SP and Exp points lost.

As he had created a bloody road through these people until now, he had actually gained quite a bit of SP and Exp points, and even the Legacy System's upgrade was close to 70% ready.

Surely the people dying around him still gave him SP points, and Exp points, but the points were extremely low compared to his personal killing them.

So, he wasn't happy with the situation, but at the same time, a thought appeared in his mind. He could use the RPG to simplify his job.

With those thoughts in mind, he quickly picked up a relatively two-fist stone and then hurl it towards the handmade RPG.

'Bang…, Boooooooommmmmmm~!'

A lot of people looked at him as if he were crazy, when in fact he couldn't be happier. The rock he threw at the RPG crashed with it, resulting in a powerful explosion.

The surprising part was that the explosion clearly shock the people around him, and even forced the majority to fall on the ground, but it didn't do anything to him.

Quite on the opposite, he looked to be perfectly fine despite the explosion and actually took this opportunity to kill the enemies while they were down.

He would have loved to start talking to them about ideals and make them change, but once a bastard betrays he wouldn't change his character simply.

Furthermore, he needed them to die in order to receive some nice SP and Exp points, alongside the upgrade completion of the system, and the awakening of his Fairy.

The Leader and his lackeys could only look at the situation in front of them with fear and despair, as the monster in front of them was even able to use an RPG to his benefit.

They were done! 

100% done!

Thinking like this, the Leader seemed to have forgotten about his ideals, ambitions, and greed, as he quickly left the Mansion's front area to run towards the exit.

The insurgents' morale was already low seeing the bestial attitude of Eric into killing them. Seeing their Leader and his lackeys run away made that morale plummet into an all-time low.

The small hills of bodies on the way were a perfect demonstration of how stupid their actions had been, as they couldn't help but regret ever listening to that bastard.

To make matters worse, Eric didn't seem to have the intention of taking any prisoners, he truly seemed to want to eradicate them whole.

Considering the current situation, they felt that they had no other choice but to try and escape this place with all they had.

In fact, the escape and run-away had started quite some time ago, as more than a few hundred people had run towards the tunnel, with the hope to get outside and escape!

Cui La and Hilda were instructed to hide and not stop even one of them. Seeing the tunnel unguarded they were extremely happy and felt like they were about to enjoy freedom.

But the moment that they truly entered the tunnel, screams of fear, despair, and regret were left behind only.

In order to make sure that none of them escaped the tunnel with his life due to some terrible stroke of luck, Eric had ordered the puppet to rip their heads, whoever tried to escape.

His decision might sound cruel and vicious but considering his current situation and the importance of that place, then he could be said to be fully justified.

Furthermore, he wasn't some kind of God or Hero, he was just a selfish man that wanted to live his life for his own selfish reasons.

After cleaning all the idiots that were affected by the explosion of RPG and seeing the leader and his lackeys run towards the tunnel, he just chuckled and run behind them.

This was what was called a good pincer attack, one side would greet them with the ripping of their heads, while the other side would cut them in many pieces.

No matter which side these bastards chose, they were bound to die there and then…
