In a well lit up hall way, two men dressed in black could be seen walking and chatting, one of them with a long scar on his cheek while the other wore a cap and was currently smoking.
"Damn I thought our organization was a terror, but whoever this monster is, I really don't want to meet him," the man on the left who had a scar on his cheek said.
"yeah I get what you mean, analysis said he wiped out the city in one move, I mean one move, how is that even possible, I didn't know Kaiser level cultivators were that powerful," the other man said as he puffed out some smoke.
"Heh, heh, heh" the scarred guy muffled his laugh, and then looking around as if checking to make sure there was no one nearby, he leaned towards his friend and whispered, "I heard that the person who wiped out the city was not a Kaiser level cultivator".
"What" the other man shouted in disbelief, "a Kaiser level cultivator is the strongest level of cultivation, and a general level cultivator can't wipe out a city, so only a …." The man said and then trailed off in realization with shock appearing on his face.
"Hah, ha, ha, you idiot, it seems you finally realized what I mean" the scared man mocked,
"Impossible "the other man whispered still in shock.
"It's the truth, the person who did this has a cultivation higher than the Kaiser level, and there are even rumors that he is the one responsible for the storm crater," the scared man said with a proud grin on his face,
"You mean that huge crater that contains a never ending storm of purple lightning and fire," the other man asked still in disbelief.
"Yep," the scared man answered, a Knowledgeable look on his face as he continued," they say that there was a clash between a mysterious rank 8 beast and that powerful person, and their battle resulted in the formations of large craters and finally the storm crater.
This piece of news has every powerful nation and organization looking towards the Ergand federation, some are suspecting them of breeding a powerhouse and demanding to investigate the storm crater, though the recent destruction of a Maamion city has reduced some of the heat on the federation as every nation is now wary of this new force and preparing themselves for the mysterious threat".
As the two men moved, the scarred man kept on showing off his knowledge when suddenly the hallway they were inside began shaking, and before they could even make sense of what was happening, the ceiling broke apart as a large boar burst through and crushed them with its hove before they could react.
"Damn it you killed them both" Seth scolded looking at the men whose bodies had been crushed beneath the boar hooves.
"Oaar"
The boar squealed as it bowed its head, all the while trembling in fear.
Seth sighed and looked away from the trembling boar, the boar had been the unlucky beast he had come across during his journey, and on seeing him it had immediately tried to run away but an order from Seth sent it squealing and running back to him.
The boar had been quite fast as it thundered through the forest, but its back was such an uncomfortable ride that Seth had to stand up the whole time, and to make matters worse, the boar was damn stupid, time and time again, Seth had to correct its course and out of frustration, he began giving it some kicks which seemed to make it focus harder on going the right direction till some minutes later when it would lose focus again and go off course, compelling Seth to kick it again, bringing about an almost endless circle of beatings.
"Just go," Seth said as he waved his hand at the beast, he didn't have any plans of riding a boar in the foreseeable future.
With a loud grunt, the beast jumped up and out of the hallway through the hole in the ceiling it had created, leaving Seth all alone to the footsteps he could hear rushing toward his position.
The hallway Seth currently stood in was a wide one but with a relatively low ceiling, it was likely part of what should be a base.
Seth had tracked his murderer's scent all the way to some remote village filled with farmers, he ignored the deserted state of the village which was probably a result of the rank 5 boar charging forward and recklessly throwing its aura around,
"Well, it also indirectly saved their lives". Seth thought.
With an order, Seth had the beast charge into a hill that was just close to the village, and with a boom, he was in a hallway.
With his hands in his pockets, Seth strolled further into the base as alarms rang all over with that annoying red light of a thing flashing all around and into his eyes.
A few minutes into his walk and he saw a squad of 10 well trained men blocking his path.
Seth called them "well-trained men" because they were all dressed in a uniform of green with yellow patches, and they had stopped some distance away from him and lifted their guns at him in well-ordered sync.
"Stop where you are, identify yourselves, and state your intentions for being here or else we will take you …." A man who was probably the leader of the group stepped forward and was saying when Seth interrupted his speech with a question.
"Are those actual qi guns?" Seth said with his eyes brightening up in interest, back in the day Seth had played around with normal guns, but the thought of having a qi gun had never crossed his mind, not even the Moroc city military possessed such guns.
Regular guns were unable to penetrate 2nd stage soldiers and above and were mostly used by non-cultivators in their brawls and squabbles, but qi were guns were different, they were special guns which are said to be able to pierce into the skins of soldier level cultivators and even some first stage generals, they were even rumors of a qi gun which was a magic tool and could pierce through a Kaiser level cultivator.
The ability to fire fast bullets at any soldier level cultivator and easily neutralize them was a great desire for millions of people, but unfortunately, they could only desire it as the prices and availability of qi guns were incredibly off the charts, they were so difficult to get that even grade D, C and most grade B cities military didn't even possess them, but today Seth actually got to see a bunch of them, they even looked more advance than the one's he had seen online, and he couldn't help but be intrigued by them.
"Fire" the man who had spoken up said without hesitation when he saw Seth continue walking forward, and a hail of thin red blast immediately flew towards Seth.
