Bullets flew from everywhere along with couples of glistening silvers being slashed every now and then. Jia was wary with the strength of her opponents as these were still part of the Special Forces, she was ready to battle it out to the death with these people. Fortunately she has her own special weapon, its an ancient dagger she found from one of her expeditions, with it she tried defending herself as well as killing the enemies nearing her. Although her opponents must be stronger than her for atleast a realm, her weapon should suffice to fend them off and escape, though she was still unable to avoid every bullets and daggers aimed towards her.
A man in black appeared behind her without her noticing, she was at the moment fending herself from the attacks in front when she felt pain from her back, an enemy slashed her from the shoulders down, blood gushed out from the wound and Song Jia slightly staggered while killing off her enemy upfront.
--Sh*t it must be an awakener with a special attribute! How could I not notice him?!
Without looking back she immediately slashed the attacker with her dagger, aiming at his vital spots and making sure to deepen the wound while twisting it clockwise ending the man on the spot. She killed an enemy but it is still a fact that she too received a blow.
Seeing the wench being slashed behind, gleefulness appeared from the eyes of the elder. "Keep the flower safe! Master still have uses for it!" After ordering, he gazed at her, looking at her like she's a dead person.
Hah! Still planning to get the flower from her? Dream on! Still sweating from being on defense without stopping she immediately held the wooden box tightly not letting anyone near it, as one of the men was about to grab the box, without any signs she opened it with haste and ate everything inside of it while keeping her life from the attacks.
It taste horrible at the same time sweet. She frowned at the confusing combos of flavors exploding in her mouth but changed her expression to nonchalance at the next second without anyone noticing.
She suddenly thought, Hmp! If i'm gonna die, i'm gonna bring it all with me!
With that in mind, she smirked towards the bastard elder that tried to kill her.
Of course, her actions didn't come unnoticed by the elder, his face turned white to green, green to blue, it was about to reach the color violet next with just a little more taunting. He was about to order his men to stop the stupid girl's idiotic action but before he could even utter a word the girl had already ate the whole thing in her hand!
"Get the flower from her! Even if it is to slice her open do it! Get the flower or else the master would be the one slicing you all up!!" His voice erupted all over the forest scaring the men which made their body involuntarily froze for a few seconds, they trembled at the thought of the elder's threat.
If this isn't a chance then what is? Song Jia grabbed the chance to escape the moment the men in black freezes. She quickly grabbed a pill from her pouch and swallowed it. It was one of her inventions, a pill that could allow an awakener at her realm to match the speed of a person 2 realms higher than her.
--Although it's prowess must be amazing to hear, being able to out run an opponent of the same rank or 1 realm higher than you but it's downside is its only usable for a short span of 5 seconds! Yep it was actually a failure and I was just keeping it as it was a waste to throw them and oh heavens am I glad I was a bit sentimental throwing this out! If we look at how useful it is at the moment, it surely is a life saving grace!! Also thanks to that idiot's scream the guards freezes or else... they're gonna dissect me to pieces!
She shuddered at that thought, she set it aside and just focused on dashing away opposite from where her opponents are, the entranced state of the men in black didn't last long just a couple seconds, but it is enough for Jia to escape, when the opponents return their gaze towards the girl, they are shock at the same time terrified that the girl escape from their clutches! It's just 5 seconds but the girl disappeared like a smoke. This is bad! Definitely bad! the master will gonna slice them all up!
The elder of course also noticed the disappearance of the girl, it could see how it manages to run fast despite its current condition, He was still after all a Senior Master, at least 3 realm higher than Song Jia. If he wanted it, he could just chase Song Jia and finish her off but he deemed it to be lowly to use his hands for such an insignificant matter, just what did I bring these fools for if he was still the one to finish the job?! Thinking this, his anger towards his subordinates rose rapidly, He looked at them pointedly and angrily he shouted at his men. "You fools! What are you all still standing there for?! Go! Find her!"
The members of the 18th Seith Battalion immediately scrambled towards different paths, searching for their target.
While they were all rushing everywhere just to search for her, Song Jia at the moment was running without any directions with all the speed she could muster, her 5 seconds of speed had expired a couple seconds ago already! She looked back to check if someone had already managed to catched up to her and she wasn't disappointed at all! She had manage to catch glimpses of shadows approaching her location.
--Gosh! Aren't they fast?! It's just like only couple seconds ago when we all last met!
She feels like crying but without having any tears to shed, as she was running ahead while looking back she didn't notice a group of shrubs growing before her, behind the shrubs was another cliff. She noticed her situation far too late, as she was one step away before she can fall from a thousand meter cliff!
"Song Jia... Song Jia... tsk tsk. You now have nowhere to go! Hahaha!"
A creepy voice suddenly appeared behind Song Jia making her almost jump out of shock! If I'm not gonna die because of injuries, I'm gonna die because of shock! Gosh!
