Guild Wars

Chapter 949 Teaching Them A Lesson 1

Well, it would naturally take time for the information to disseminate between the various forces of the plane. The Eternals in the room were too shocked to even speak, and it was obvious that they would likely spread the information to forces behind them or sell it for profit.

They did not know Shuangtian from anywhere and had no reason to take care of her secrets for her, though this was not exactly a secret. Of course, the issue was that if she felt it was so, she could easily silence them here and now…

Thinking like this, the sensible ones among them like Hurst, Andreas, Leon, Dexter, and Kirlia were filled with fear and trepidation, wondering what would happen in the next few seconds, which would likely decide their life and death.

As for Riola, she seemed to not care in the least and was thoroughly excited from head to toe, laughing happily as if she had seen her dead parents again as Batman.

Helen was the most distraught, still deathly p[ale as if she had caught her lover killed in their bed and the killer pointed a gun at her family too. She wasn't even looking at Shangtian, but rather at the numbers before her.

Shuangtian took in their reactions and regretted that she didn't have Draco and Eva's mental abilities, but she didn't waste time. Immediately, she channeled her bloodline and summoned around 10 golems of the Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Light, Dark, Lightning, Sound, Poison, and Wood element respectively.

All of them were at the Eternal level and directly pulled their energy from her, giving them unlimited battle power and regeneration as long as Shuangtian could maintain the supply.

She did not unleash the Abyss golem because that was her trump card, and there was no need to use it here.

Suddenly being surrounded by these giant golems with menacing intent and radiating Eternal level power, the fellows here became wary, with some directly displaying ugly expressions.

"Um, miss Shuangtian, what is the meaning of this?" Leon took the initiative to ask with a bitter smile.

Shuangtian smiled. "This is my Eternal talent. I am just testing it out since this is the first time I have had an accurate reading of my power and talent, so I can't help but be moved. I'm sure it won't cause a problem right?"

The group shared a look and sighed in their hearts. This was baked bullying, and she was not nearly as benevolent as they thought given that she claimed to be a newbie and had a very young life aura.

"What does miss Shuangtian want? State it clearly." Andreas asked coldly, stepping forward.

Shuangtian glanced at him, then all of them, and smiled. "I assume the Mercenaries Pavilion has a rule that prevents the personal information of members from being leaked? A basic privacy policy?"

The hearts of the Eternals went cold. This time, Hurst came forward and nodded.

"That's right. Regarding your exemplary talent and results, the Mercenaries Pavilion will not share it with any third party, not even our other branches or headquarters."

Shuangtian clapped happily. "That's perfect! Because it would be extremely terrible for me to enter a conflict with any of you lovely people if I ever find out a third party knows this."

"I mean, it's only fair to hunt anyone who shares my information down and torture them to death, because the effect of my details being released would have the same outcome for me, no?"

While saying this Shuangtian glanced specifically at Helen, who was still silent. Seeing that Shuangtian had focused on her, Helen shivered and snapped out of her stupor, before smiling weakly.

"That's true." She muttered unwillingly.

Before Shuangtian could end the matter her, Riola stepped forward with a smile. "Why stop here? What if they share the information with important factions that don't release it to the public? Then those organizations can use this time to plan how to deal with you."

"Since we gave her our promise, why don't we sign an Eternal Agreement? That should officiate everything and prevent any mistakes." She concluded with a playful smile.

Hearing this, the expressions of all the fellows here changed. They glanced at Riola with dissatisfaction, and Helen even bit her lip as she glared with hatred.

Shuangtian froze when she heard this and her expression became dark. She simply waved a hand and the 10 Eternal Golems attacked the 6 weak Eternals straight away.

The group were shocked by Shuangtian's sudden move and were forced to defend themselves hastily.

Hurst was punched head-on by the earth elemental golem, which changed its fist into a giant boulder that glowed with pure elemental energy as backdrop. That way, it dealt both physical and elemental damage with its hits!

He used his flow control ability to manipulate the flow of air around him to form a barrier of sorts. He then comboed by using the flow of heat within the atmosphere to condense into a small fire dragon that rushed at the golem.

The fist of the golem hit the makeshift wind barrier that was created through the rapid increase of the flow of air in one spot and was immediately shattered, causing Hurst's face to change.

The fist struck him right in the chest, caving it in deeply as he was sent flying into a nearby wall, almost blasting through it. He simply coughed out blood and a few innards before sliding to the floor uselessly.

Leon was shocked like the others but reacted the fastest thanks to his Extrasensory talent. Not only did it make his perception hairthin, but it also greatly increased his reaction speed.

Basically, once the ability was activated, he was basically in perpetual bullet time and his senses were about as sharp as a person with Tier 1 VoP. As such, he easily dodged the spikes from the wood element golem and jumped back.

As he normally did when they were working together on missions, he was about to share his perception with the others and be their 'eyes' on the battlefield, but this only left him open to a bolt of lightning to the back.

Sure you could dodge fast-moving spikes of wood thanks to bullet time, but that would not match up to the speed of Lightning. Even if he could sense the charged particles coming over, there was not enough time to move his physical body to react.

After all, Extrasensory only gave him a reaction speed increase. Reaction speed was often split into two, the reaction of the mind/conscious and the reaction of the body.

This was why Ultra Instinct was such a big thing, because it basically allowed the mind and body to be in sync. Unfortunately, this fellow only had the mind bit and his body was relatively normal for an Eternal-level person.

When he was hit, he was blasted forward into the ground and dragged forward for a few meters. Leon shakily raised his upper body and then coughed out a wad of blood, his back smoking as a large patch had been burned into blackness.

Andreas immediately rushed towards Shuangtian, not because she was a weak link due to being a summoner but because his ability was useless on lifeless golems. He could only drain life force, not energy, so he had to go for the living one, which was Shuangtian.

Shuangtian stood there and folded her arms, watching with amusement as Andres was immediately intercepted by the golem of darkness.

"Get out of the way, construct!" he roared as he punched out and then dodged, having faith in his own physical abilities.

The darkness golem simply burst into pure darkness element where Andreas hit, and it seemed to want to suck him into the vortex, Andreas' face changed as he roared and tried to pull his hand out, but like with quicksand, this only seemed to push him in deeper.

He screamed and cried for help, even activated his power to drain life, but as expected, it had no effect on the golem. Eventually, he was sucked in completely as the golem glowed with a malevolent black light for a few seconds while it began to rumble.

Like a faulty washing machine that had done its job and was now spitting out the clothes, Andres was also spat out onto the ground from the black mist within the golem's torso, falling down pathetically.

From a pale face, handsome vampire-like lord, he was not an aged man with his bones pressing against his skin, as if he had extreme anorexia.

The darkness golem seemed to burp and began stronger slightly. After all, the ability to 'drain' and 'devour' were concepts from the darkness element, so Andreas with his mere subset of the devouring ability could not match up to one with the source.

Dexter roared as he fired his guns crazily, spinning in the air acrobatically and dexterously as he wielded his guns in amazing ways. If he were to display even half of these moves in a blockbuster movie, it would likely accrue 5 billion at the box office for sure.

However, all the fancy moves in the world could not save him when the water element golem simply put up a barrier of water which the bullets penetrated, then became trapped in as they were slowed by the viscous and highly dense liquid.

The man himself was extremely pressed by his current task, which was to survive. His power lay in his ability to manipulate guns, and that path had little future in terms of raw power as an Eternal hence why his Eternal Limit was so low.

He could also provide some augmentation to guns to make them more durable, faster, and have better power, but most of his power lay on the weapon itself. If he had good high-quality guns, he could fight anyone of any rank.

That was exactly why he worked here in this Mercenaries Pavilion, to acquire enough funds to buy better weapons and increase his power, then acquire more funds, and so on.

But he met his worst enemy today, which was an elemental user of the water element. Well, most elements had a retaining effect on physical means like his, but water and earth were the worst, and he happened to attract the water golem.

Dexter was forced to roar and jump about because there was a puddle of water chasing him on the floor that would try to capture him within if he stayed too long on the ground, and his perfectly fired bullets only sunk into the water wall conjured by the water golem.

However, Dexter did not have extrasensory and did not realize that the sneaky water golem had released another puddle that was placed where he would land next while his attention was occupied by the first one.

So the moment his foot made contact with the ground, it erupted and covered him fully. Before he could scream he was floating with a water bubble that was reinforced by the first puddle, becoming twice the size.

The bullets he fired while within out of desperation and an attempt to escape became trapped within as the density was like moving through wet clay.

The water golem coldly watched him choke until his face went purple and he passed out before releasing the water bubble and tossing him to the floor.

His eyes had rolled back into his head and his mouth leaked water that was trapped in his lungs, all the while his body occasionally twitched to show he was alive.

Then, there was Kirlia, who was screaming as he endured the attacks from the Light and Poison Golems. Since she was the only other Eternal here that was above the 'weak' tier - which equated to Rank 1 in the local terms of this plane - she was given two to play with.

Naturally, she was not as excited as Little Timmy during Christmas when he received two new toys. Rather, she was on the verge of tears and was screaming for help all the time.
