Chapter 472 – 472: Starting A Bloody Massacre
"Really!? Then why don't you all die for me then!?"
Even though this time he didn't scream those words, everyone could feel that these words were even more shocking than whatever he had said up to that point and couldn't help but shiver.
For a moment there they all felt like Death, or the Grim Reaper was actually staring at them from the Underworld as if they were staring at some dead people still walking and functioning.
"Everyone kill that murderer, otherwise we all are going to die!"
On the other hand, Eric looked at the Realm 2 puppet beside him, and ordered in a solemn voice containing traces of rage and anger,
"Massacre whoever comes our way!"
His words shocked the two ladies behind him, but the Realm 2 puppet didn't have feelings. Even though Hilda and the others were used to killing after their trip to Africa.
The truth was that they had only killed criminals and lunatics, none of them had been innocent, or at least without heavy crimes.
Furthermore, Eric had actually paid for their freedom, their transport, and everything else until they had reached this point, and now he was going to kill them like chicken?
What kind of hellish situation was this? Still, none of them actually dared to say anything to Eric at that moment, as they could understand his standing and logic, and could see his anger.
Opposite Roy, the crowd of a few tens of thousands of people were actually in an impasse not knowing what to do, stuck between a rock and a hard place.
In these moments though there would always be a bastard that would actually spark the battlefield and start the fight. In most cases, that guy was part of the faction behind the insurgence.
This time it was no different, before the crowd could even make a choice of their own, or pull back due to their fear, some skinny guy clearly stronger than the others appeared screaming and attacked.
"You damn murderer, how dare you to treat us like that!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf one didn't know better they would think that this guy had been some kind of hotshot with a lot of money and status before coming in this Nightless Stone City.
When in fact, he was nothing more than an ex-slave, that Eric had saved from a run-down concentration camp in Africa, as he was watching his wife and daughter played in front of him.
In front of a gun 9 out of 10 cases, everyone would be a frightened cat, that could only think of escaping.
With a gun in their hand, 10 out of 10 people would feel their selves stronger and more powerful than their opponent, and they might even act as a tyrant in front of them.
Each and every one of these guys had been a coward that didn't dare to even think of escaping when they were caught before, but once Eric gave them better conditions and a better life they changed.
From cowards they become tyrants with a gun, thinking that they could easily bite the hand that fed them and keep control of this place.
The best story to describe this situation would be that of the villager that saved and fed a snake while keeping him on his chest to give him warmth, the moment that the snake was healed he turned goodwill with a bite.
These little snakes in front of him were no different. Each and every one of them was a bastard lower than a snake, that he had to clean up without fail.
Seeing that guy take charge and start running towards him first, while the others run after him, Eric just simply walked towards them with small steps.
'Bang, bang, bang, bang…'
Before he had even taken three steps, 10 snipers, and numerous guns were pointed at him trying to take his life.
Still, seeing all that Eric didn't seem to care much before the bullets even reached him, the Realm 2 puppet changed form and turned into a barrier suit for him, defending him from every incoming bullet.
In that situation, even a Realm 3 being wouldn't have a chance to survive the barrage of bullets, but unfortunately for the insurgents and fortunately for Roy, the Realm 2 puppet wasn't a normal one.
Each bullet that was headed at Eric was intercepted by the barrier-suit and instead of making them ricochet due to a sturdier material, they were absorbed by the Realm 2 Puppet.
Once the bullets were absorbed they would slowly be transported towards Eric's hands, and slowly gather there.
When he had finally gathered enough, Eric suddenly made a throwing motion with his hands, and the bullets that were fired at him a few moments ago were actually turned back to the attackers and crowd.
Since this action was quite unexpected from the crowd and the attackers, most of them were unable to actually defend against it as the bullets pierced their limbs and bodies to either cause injuries or death.
In just one move more than 100 people were actually killed from just one action from Eric, making the people behind scared shitless with the situation.
Still, they seemed to understand that there was no turning back now, and they could only advance forward, so without even caring about the corpses of the people in front, they continued to run towards Roy.
Like that, even those that weren't dead yet would surely be squished to death from the numerous people setting over them once they got on the ground, increasing the casualties of the first attack.
Still, despite that, the guns and snipers didn't seem to stop, as they continued to try and pierce his armor puppet and kill him.
Which was extremely accommodating to Eric's plan as they were supplying him with bullets that he could use to kill their accomplices.
With every step, he would take he would make throwing gestures with his hands and throw the received bullets to the crowd killing more and more of these guys.
After his second and third attacks though the people in front of him seemed to realize this as well so the moment he made the gestures they would either get down on the ground or find cover.
The moment that the firing happened they would just start running towards him once again and close the distance.
With their numbers, they were assured that they would manage to trap or kill him, especially after each and every one of them had grown stronger through practice.
Eric didn't seem to care about their approach though, he continued throwing bullets at them, killing as many as he could, as his Legacy System was counting the SP points for him.
What surprised him the most was that even though he had killed quite a few people, reaching the thousands, the SP and EXP points were increasing much faster than normal.
For that reason, he kept doing the same actions without caring much about the outside, as he thought on the reason.
His best thoughts were that he didn't get points only from the people he killed, but also from the ones that died around him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was new information that made him quite happy, but at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder why.
But that wasn't the most important part, as what happened next startled, and shocked him but at the same time made him extremely happy,
"Warning!!! Legacy System has detected large amounts of Spirit Power and Energy around the Host!"
"Warning!!! Legacy System will start absorbing the Spirit Power and Energy wake up the Linked-up Host and Upgrade!"
"Warning!!! Legacy System Task completion at 24%! Please provide more Spirit Power and Energy!"
The moment that Eric saw this notification from his Legacy System, he got extremely happy, his System and his Fairy would once again be by his side and help him.
As for the Spirit Power and Energy, he didn't need to be a genius to understand that it was coming from the dead bodies inside this place.
The more he killed, the more Spirit Power and Energy would there be, and the quicker would his Legacy System wake up and upgrade.
Once these thoughts appeared on his mind, he finally decided to be thorough with his cleaning plans, as an evil and malicious grin appeared on his face, making everyone in front feel a chill course their spine.
It was at this time that the attackers finally reached 10 to 20 meters away from him, ready to clash in a few seconds.
Seeing this, Eric seemed to change his mind and take a detour as he actually made a quick turn and entered inside a house.
Since people were mostly gathered at the area in front of the Mansion the whole place was almost empty, so the house was full empty.
This was great for Eric's plan, as the next moment 15 people entered inside the house following behind him, and the others were around the corner.
Without losing time Eric ordered the puppet to jump forward in attack and injure the enemy before he took their lives right after the puppet.
The first 15 were quickly followed by 20 more, and right after them, there were 50 more. Since he was inside a house the gun holders and snipers didn't have a clear target on him, so couldn't shoot anymore.
It was just like all of a sudden he had actually set up a ring of death and was accepting challenges. Each challenge was a life and death match, with only one possible survivor.
He took even multiple opponents at the same time as well…
