Beastmen coalition!
Outer wall
While the imperial army was panicking, Mark had sneakily planed to infiltrate the orange rank camps to wreak havoc.
It had been four days since he left the place, but Mark had noticed several changes in western warlords palace which started him.
Earlier Mark didn't plan on facing them earlier, but when both the behemoths of orange rank bases joined forces, Mark was forced to opt an infiltration ahead of time.
"Darkness extract!"
Transforming himself into a tangible black shadow, Mark quickly dived into the shadow of a patrolling soldier and enter deep into their ranks.
One after the other, Mark shifted his targets and transferred his tangible shadowy body to them until he infiltrated deep into enemy fortress to carry out his plans.
Though there weren't much of grand constructions in the base, the ability of the orange rank bases to build fortress overnight had greatly startled him.
And since the defenses were tight and emperor rank cultivators were plenty, Mark had opt to darkness extract rather than boldly breaking in as he did to other bases before.
Barracks# 241
Hidden within the shadow of the enemy soldiers, Mark stealthily sneaked into a remote military barracks and started his plan from here!
It was a remote corner and even patrolling of soldiers were not frequent over this place, White decided to reap such unsheltered barracks first before proceeding to tougher ones!
" Who are yo...? "
Slash!~
Before the enemy personnel in black armour could question, Mark slid his blade and beheaded the beastmen with a horizontal slash.
" Fuck! An intru... "
Before the enemy personnel could roar out to alert his comerads, Mark used his darkness bind and spelled hundreds of darkness threads, which rendered them motionless under its constrain.
With beastmen being initial order aura kings, they were heavily constrained by Mark and helplessly laid their lives for him to reap!
Slash!~ Slash!~ Slash!~ Slash!~
Slash!~ Slash!~ Slash!~ Slash!~
One... two... five... twenty...
The fight was short lived and in just a matter of seconds hundred soldiers were killed without much of an effort as multiple special abilities were used without holding back!
Traversing! Resonance! Darkness bind! Darkness extract! Warp!
These abilities when used at once had revealed a terrifying might which the beastmen were unable to resist!
Few minutes earlier, Mark caught a boozing soldiers off guard and after constraining him in darkness bind, he killed him clean before others patrols could be alerted by them.
He quickly stored their corpses, wiped out battle remains before exiting the place in a clad pitch black heavy armour to blend into enemy numbers.
With a crude savage mask which covered his face, Mark was completely undistinguishable from others and unless he made suspicious movements around, he wasn't afraid of being caught by the enemy powerhouses..
Since killing a single group wasn't enough to weaken the enemies as a whole, Mark moved to other barracks before killing a considerable portion of enemies and made their corpses disappear as ever.
Five minutes later.
The silent assassination of Mark was going well without hindrance, until a point when a strong peak order aura emperor sensed the disappearance of his soldiers in a strange pattern.
" Strange! Why are the auras of my soldiers disappearing en mass? "
" Gyro, this seat is giving you full command over division two! Investigate this matter for this vice lord at once! We can't lose more of our soldiers! "
A meditating old man with a long beard stroked his hair twice before ordering his lackeys to move out.
" We obey! "
At once several voices rang out with frightening looks and acted complete obedience and if the words of this old man was akin to god!
High order aura emperor Gyro, followed by tens of initial to middle order emperors had bowed down in unison before moving out to investigate.
After these men left, the vice lord once again entered the state of meditation to find the cause.
Plain white cloths which apparently were worn on a skinny body, with a life less blind eyes had made him loss much weak than ordinary, much equivalent to a mortal.
This quality of him was a thing which made others frightened!
The ones who had belittled this old man were long since buried deep so who would dare act proud before him?
Assassinating a bit more than couple thousand soldiers, Mark finally caught the suspicion from this strong peak order aura emperor, so an incoming crisis could be predictable.
Though this powerhouse wasn't able to pin mark's location, he atleast was able to sense that an abnormal had infiltrated his base and he quickly needs to get rid of him, before occurance as such could be repeated
Though Mark was a bit vigilant and cautious with his killings, the disappearance of bodies had ultimately gave him out and alerted the powerhouses to investigate.
" Ding! A serious warning to host, a strong unit of hundred aura emperors are searching for host! Suggesting host to change location! "
Hearing her warning, Mark was startled for a second before exclaiming.
" Woah! Hundred aura emperors? Was Gazil really the owner of an orange rank base? "
" Why is the disparity between the orange rank bases so high? It doesn't really makes sense! "
System remained silent as deaf and after being annoyed by it Mark traversed out the place and appeared at the other end of fortress, few hundreds meters away from current location.
With increase in refinement, his abilities of Law were also enhanced.
The range of traversing which earlier covered few dozen meters now exceeded hundreds.
So all it needs was few seconds for him, before he could completely out run any pursuers and get rid of them by multiple traverses.
Darkness extract, Darkness bind, Resonance, Two point warp and Traversing!
All these abilities which earlier were unable to show their real might with the lack of his strength were now enhanced.
And Mark was very much excited to find this and want to test his powers to limit.
Though he would very much be pleased to fight those aura emperors searching for him, he was quite unfortunate to do so, as his task at present was to trim down enemy numbers and decrease the threat, where he would find an opportunity and goes all out against them with Wendy.
At the other side of fortress.
Mark entered each of the barracks unhindered, slayed them silently, before shortly collecting their corpse and moving to next target present around.
This time he had hastened up his killing rate and traversed instantly when a set number of soldiers were slayed under him.
" Haha! Seems like assassination really does suite my style, sigh if only was my refinement realm was at seventh or eight, orange rank base would be no different from yellow rank under my powers! "
Five minutes later.
One hundred... Five hundred... One thousand... and at last at two thousand!
One after the other, Mark cleared the barracks at high pace! Just like a hidden assassin he slayed the enemy till it reaches couple thousand and traversed to new place to start a slaughter zone.
Since his presence was already discovered, Mark didn't bothered clearing up the mess which made the soldiers who discovered the battle traces panic in fright.
" Damn punk! You'll pay for this! "
The blind old vice lord, almost lost his temper, and when the figure of Mark he's searching for had killed yet a couple thousand, he became furious!
" Pika!! Take division three, search for that scoundrel! He's four to five feet tall, at least a mid ordered aura emperor and a professional assassin on top of it! "
looking at the vice lord who had almost snapped out to temper, Pika bowed down in fright before moving out to search for Mark.
" Pika obeys! "
Looking at the departing figure of pika, the old man sighed before returning back to meditation.
This time his blind eyes turned white and his perception over the surroundings had heightened which made him more easier to search Mark.
" Ding! An another search party for host is investigating out! Suggesting host to play cautious! "
" An another? Seems like they are taking me up for real! "
" Well, seems like I have to hasten up things currently! "
Mark chuckled lightly before entering an another camp of soldiers for slaughter, after all he needs to decrease their numbers right?
