Child of Destiny

...

Seeing that Owen was walking toward them, the Wild Brothers quickly assumed their battle formation and got ready for the battle.

But before they could even adjust their positions to where they were supposed to be, Moyong Qi, the eldest of the three, suddenly noticed Alucard staring at them like a hunting beast stalking its prey.

A single look at this guy with a Vampire Race was more than enough for Moyong Qi to realize that he could not afford to leave the guy unchecked. He knew that they would be in trouble if he let Owen and Ithilien work together with Alucard.

After a quick calculation inside his head, he immediately cup with a conclusion. He had to face Alucard alone and keep the guy in check if they wanted to have a chance for this battle.

Ironically, he was supposed to be confident that they would win this battle if the three of them worked together like they usually did. But Alucard’s presence in the field changed everything.

He was not sure what exactly was bothering him, but he could tell that he must keep Alucard in check to make sure that they would be able to avoid any accidents.

Thinking about this, he turned to his brothers and instructed. "You two keep Owen and the girl busy. I have to face Alucard first and confirm something."

The two looked at their big brother for a while before the second eldest asked. "Are you sure about this, Big Brother? That guy may not be that well-known as those top gods, but he is still a Maverick God that could be put on the slevel as those highly ranked Godlike Players." @@ @@

Hearing those words, Moyong Qi could not help but give the two a sneering glance before saying. "Do you think I don’t know about it? I am not foolish enough to challenge someone on that level without a plan."

These words gave the two younger brothers an idea that their eldest brother was planning to reveal his real capabilities in this match, which he had been hiding for quite a while now.

"Are you sure about this? I am not sure that it will be worth it for this round," said the youngest with a frown.

"I agree with the youngest, Big Brother. I think you don’t have to reveal all our cards right now. We know that this is an important battle for us, but I don’t think it is the right tfor that yet," said Moyong Gui, the second eldest, before quickly adding. "Look at Vendetta. He can show his real capabilities in the previous rounds, yet he has only shown what needed to be shown to everyone."

"Moreover, unlike the others, we have more paths that we can take even if the project got disbanded by the Big Boss. It is not like we will not have anywhere else to go once the club project fails," he added as he tried to convince his big brother.

Moyong Qi shook his head when he heard those words and refuted them. "Vendetta is different from us. No one knows how the corporation has ’convinced’ him to join the club project, but we can tell from his earlier ’conversation’ with the president that something is going on between him and the corporation."

"We may be in a different case since we have volunteered to join the team for the benefits that they have offered us. But the scan’t be said once we lose our worth to them."

"We may be a worthy piece on the board right now, but it can change at any given time. They can throw us away once we lose that ’worth’ they see from us."

He then paused as he went back to another topic that his second brother had mentioned. "You said that we have other places to go after this project failed, but have you ever thought there is still getting out of that place once you have entered it?"

Hearing that, the two younger brothers could not help but pause as they tried to digest his words. Then they later looked at Moyong Qi with wide eyes as they seemed to have realized something.

Moyong Qi shook his head repeatedly along with a bitter smile, lowering his voice. "We have already been involved in the organization for quite a while now and stumble upon ssecrets within."

"What we know may not be that deep into their secrets yet, but it was enough to hold us in place and prevent anyone from leaving."

"There are only two outcomes for pieces that have lost their purpose. One is to be completely disregarded while the other is used for other ’purposes’ just like those lab rats from the headquarters," as he said this, he lowered his voice and made sure to cover his mouth so that any camera angle would not be able to see the movements of his lips, preventing other people from reading them.

"The president that already warned us earlier when talking with Vendetta," he added as he clarified for his somewhat slow brothers. "He is warning us to act the sas Vendetta and see what will happen next."

"He may not have anything against us for now, but the scan’t be said later once we have messed up their plans," he continued before turning ahead of them where Owen was already halfway through the swallow river and preparing for the battle.

"Just do your job and perform well. Even if we lose this round, I will make sure that nothing will happen to you later," he said as he started walking away from the two while locking his gaze on Alucard, who seemed to be patiently waiting for him.

Moyong Gui and Moyong Han looked at the back of their elder brother before sighing. They then turned their attention to Owen and Ithilien, who were already prepared to fight them.

"We will go with our usual tactics against a knight and a marksman," said Gui as he stepped forward, planning to face Owen head-on.

"And the main target?" Han asked.

"Neither!" responded Gui with a smirk.

Hearing that, Moyong Han could not help pausing for a moment as he knew what it meant. The expression on his face then beca little serious as he tried to confirm the words of his second brother. "Are you sure about it? It is going to be a little troublesgiven our current composition."

Moyong Gui glanced at his youngest brother before saying. "Have you heard what Big Brother has said? Just perform like how we usually do, and he will deal with the rest."

The youngest went silent for a moment, fully understanding what it meant. "Then are we going all-out as well?"

"Need to ask for more?" asked Gui with a sneering expression on his face.

Getting confirmation from his second brother, he started cracking his neck as he twirled the weapon he was holding, which seemed to be a hybrid between a spear and a magic scepter.

"Then I guess I have to show what I am capable of," said Han as he suddenly waved the spear scepter and summoned a huge group of mana spears pointing forward.

With a casual wave of his hand, those spears swiftly flew forward, targeting Owen and Ithilien at the stime.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Seeing the incoming attack, Ithilien raised her longbow as she aimed forward along with the magic arrow nocked on the bowstring.

She infused her mana into the arrow as she pulled the string in a full arc, curving the bow perfectly before suddenly releasing it.

Whoosh!

The arrow flew at extrspeed, dragging a strong gust of wind along with it that turned into a spiral storm that spun rapidly as it flew over Owen’s head.

Shriek!

Not long after, a huge bird made of wind element was formed, charging straight to the hail of mana spears while opening its beak wide.

Boom!

The cry of this wind creature created a storm that blocked the incoming attacks, obliterating them.

The Moyong Brothers were already expecting this to happen, which was why they were already preparing for the next move before that bird made of wind element destroyed all the mana spears.

Boom!

But before they could even complete their preparations, the bed of the swallow river shook a little, making them somewhat lose their footing.

While they were trying to regain their footing, a flash of light suddenly flickered ahead of them, forcing the two to raise their heads.

When they raised their heads, they saw a huge golden figure standing in the middle of the storm, holding a shield and a hammer in each hand.

Not waiting for that golden figure to make its move first, Moyong Gui quickly picked up his shield and used one of his transformation skills, turning himself into a half-giant warrior rivaling the opposing party’s height and body structure.

Roar!

Not long after, the two figures clashed against one another, seemingly resembling a collision between real titans. Explore more stories with .Côm
