“I don’t know either!”
“These few here are probably fakes!”
Alex merely shrugged, looking innocent. He really did not know the reason either. He initially thought that he would have a fierce battle and even had a plan in mind. He wanted to borrow Medusa’s Aegis Shield to trick Freeborn so that he would be petrified. He would then decapitate him.
Unexpectedly, Alex defeated him soundly with a punch in the end.
“Carefree Immortal King?”
“He didn’t live up to his title!”
He eventually shook his head, and the crowd of onlookers backed off one after another.
Everyone shouted ‘crap’ in their hearts. They still wanted to trample Alex under their feet and take away the storage ring from his corpse… When Freeborn told about Alex walking, the path of ancient Buddhism, they even changed their minds and wanted to confine him as their slaves to serve them.
And now…
“D*mn. He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing!”
“How wicked! He possessed such strength, but he pretended he was powerless. The most shameless thing is that he doesn’t even wear clothes and deliberately displays himself to make us think that he’s a weakling.”
“I hate tricksters the most!”
The trialists were devastated.
Fortunately, the people of Silent Hill had come to bear the brunt. Otherwise, they would have met their demise by now.
“Go, go, go!”
“It’s too perilous!”
“How did it end up like this?”
At this moment, Xerxes said, “Alex, quickly carry the bodhisattva statue away and leave. We’ve blown up the Corpse Princess’ imperial palace, but this ugly monster is immortal. Since she doesn’t show up now, she must be plotting an ultimate move. We might be in danger if we still don’t leave.”
When the few retreating trialists heard that, they all wailed silently.
It turned out that those two had destroyed the Corpse Princess’ imperial palace, but there were thousands of corpse soldiers inside. Thus, the ones who would commit such a deed were definitely atrocious. They could not afford to offend those two people.
In addition, countless corpse soldiers came from all directions like a tidal wave. They were so densely packed that their heads could not be seen at all.
Xerxes was nervous as well.
“Alex, can you defeat them?”
Alex was helpless. “Do you think I’m some Heavenly Emperor?”
He took a glance without thinking about anything else. He focused on attacking that bodhisattva statue, trying to take it down before the corpse soldiers arrived at the scene. Unfortunately, he was disappointed. No matter how hard he had tried or how many methods he had used, they were all in vain.
‘That force field of holy light emanated by the statue is too difficult to deal with.’
‘D*mn. I have no luck with this bodhisattva. Whoever is fated with it should take it away.’
Alex decided to give up as this was truly beyond his capability.
“Let’s go!”
