Archmage: God-level Modification System - Chapter 35
Chapter 35: Massacre
All of the Mages were terrified.
When they saw the first slash that Ronald had executed, the fear in their hearts was magnified infinitely.
More than a hundred people were killed by this slash. Even the fog was cut open, and a clear crack could still be seen now. Under the fog, there were clear wood shavings.
No one here could see exactly how far the slash went. This also meant that the people at the back were still in an extremely dangerous position.
One second.
Two seconds.
The fog slowly spread back and only then did it make up for the crack caused by the slash earlier. That spectacular scene would probably be unforgettable for the rest of their lives.
The five members of the Black Cavalry Mages, including Dama, stared blankly at the fog. They only came to their senses when the fog gradually healed.
Silence!
“Ronald’s strength seems a little too terrifying.” Huffy smiled nervously.
If this slash hit him, he would definitely be killed on the spot.
“I’m afraid even I can’t stop this move.” Damo’s expression was heavy. He had to admit that the threat of this slash was enough to make him uncertain whether he could block it.
Even the lawless and condescending Spada felt the urge to retreat. He said in a low voice, “Boss, should we retreat? I have a feeling that the five of us combined will not be able to shake him.”
“H-He’s too strong,” Chirner said grimly, like a sick man.
The five of them could feel the terrifying strength of Ronald. It was not something that they could withstand with their combined strength.
“Trying to leave now? I’m afraid it’s a little too late.” Damo shook his head with a wry smile and looked at Ronald. “From the beginning, his gaze has never left us. It means that if we make any abnormal movements, we will face that terrifying slash.”
“Do you think you can dodge it?” As soon as he said that, the other four people stopped talking. They lowered their heads, feeling increasingly depressed.
Being stared at by Ronald, they didn’t even have a chance to escape. Under such circumstances, it was obvious that they were in a desperate situation.
They had originally thought that they would at least be able to escape unscathed.
But when they met Ronald, they realized that it was all just their own fantasy.
Behind Ronald, Sword Demon was full of admiration and was in a high mood. “My lord’s swordsmanship is too perfect. But this is still far from the limit. My lord, you have yet to use your full strength.”
That’s right! Ronald had yet to use his full strength. He had only used 10% of his strength in that slash just now. If he were to use his full strength, the shock it would bring would be far more than that.
Alpha and Delta were all smiles and relieved. At least, Ronald’s amazing swordsmanship allowed them to be fearless.
There was nothing to fear about the Mages ahead.
Anyway, no one could shake Ronald’s swordsmanship, and that was enough.
At this moment, Ronald held the black-golden greatsword and looked at the Mages in front of him calmly.
Wherever his gaze passed, the Mages lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.
“You want my life? With your current strength, you are not qualified!” The corner of Ronald’s mouth moved slightly as he said calmly.
The black-golden greatsword cut through the air. At the tip of the sword, a sharp slash illuminated the dark environment. It was like a bright moon, dazzling beyond comparison.
Swish!
The slash hit a group of Mages.
Boom!
There was a loud explosion.
Countless Mages began to wail in anguish. More than 20 of them had been slain by this strike.
Moreover, the slash still penetrated through the fog, allowing everyone to see the shocking scene.
Currently, there were less than 300 Mages and knights left.
They had lost almost half of their men, and the number of deaths was still increasing.
“No, no, don’t kill me!”
“I surrender. I don’t dare anymore. Let me go.” Most of the forces chose to beg for mercy. They knelt on the ground and cried.
Ronald remained unmoved, his face calm. Then he threw another slash.
Swish!
The attack pierced through the crowd and killed countless knights on the spot. Even their corpses could not remain intact. Some of them were even cut into two by the clean attack.
Fresh blood splattered everywhere, and the ground was dyed red with fresh blood. The smell of blood gradually rose, causing a terrifying scene to appear here. It was like hell, with countless corpses lying everywhere and piling up into mountains.
The blood followed the trail and sank into the ground, adding a different flavor to the soil. “Dead. Everyone is dead.”
“I can’t survive. We’ve been tricked by Mystic Fire Guild. They sent us here to die.”
“No wonder they didn’t attack Ronald. Instead, they made us work for them.”
“Damn it, I regret it.”
“…”
All the forces who had come here regretted it. They begged for mercy when Ronald launched his massacre.
However, Ronald did not relent because of their surrender.
Swish!
A slash struck the Mages behind.
Boom!
The ground split open, and some severed arms fell to the ground in an arc. The corpses became incomplete, and hundreds of people died on the spot.
There was also a group of people who were seriously injured.
The alliance army of 3000 people gradually turned into 1500! This number was still decreasing. Ronald was like an executioner, his footsteps showing no signs of moving. As long as he slashed his sword, he could continuously kill these people.
“You are all adults, you have to pay the price for your choices. No one forced you to come here to die, it is only because of your greed.”
“Of course, I’m not trying to absolve the Mystic Fire Guild. You guys are not good people, so is Mystic Fire Guild. We are just on different sides.” The corner of Ronald’s mouth moved slightly, and his voice was calm and natural.
Then, he swung the sword again.
Swish! Swish!
The sharp slashes became the most dazzling light in the night.
In this foggy environment, it was exceptionally blinding.
“Ah! Run! That madman! He wants to kill us all!”
“I don’t want to die in this damned place. Run, run!”
“Don’t block my way. Turn back. Mages, run away from here. This place is too scary. Don’t ever come here again.”
“…” Everyone wanted to retreat, and they hurriedly told the Mages on their side to flee with all their might.
At the same time, Ronald’s face was calm as he looked at the escaping Mage in front of him and raised his blade.
Swish!
A slash hit the fleeing crowd.
Boom!
With a loud bang, an ancient tree was cut in half just like that, smashing into the sea, raising waves of ripples. Seawater splashed onto the shore.
To their despair, a series of slashes followed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
They could only watch helplessly as the blade lights flew towards them, but there was nothing they could do to stop them.
They gradually began to feel despair. Since the Mages were killed, it seemed to be about time for their forces to be declared extinct.
In the end, Ronald had no intention of letting all of them die here.
After killing some Mages, he stopped what he was doing. Out of the hundreds of them, only 50 to 60 remained.
Why didn’t Ronald kill them all?
The answer was naturally to publicize his reputation.
These people could not all die. If they all died, who could help him publicize his reputation?
If he didn’t publicize his reputation, there would be many foolish people who would come to disturb his quiet life.
I will leave around 50 of them alive. As for the rest, they will die here.
The corner of Ronald’s mouth moved slightly as he smiled faintly.
Following that, another terrifying slash appeared.
The source of their fear once again enveloped them.
Fear was written all over their faces.
“Ah!” Everyone wailed and begged.
However, Ronald did not show mercy. His hands were stained with blood, and these people died one after another.
From more than a hundred people, it dropped to 50 to 60.
“There are still 40 people left to kill.” With the black-golden greatsword in hand, Ronald walked towards the remaining people.
His figure was like a demon, becoming the biggest nightmare of this group of people. They were petrified.
“Don’t come over! Stay away!”
“Ah, don’t kill me. I can give you a lot of treasure.”
“I was wrong. Please let me go.”
“…”
The remaining people began to kneel and beg for mercy, hoping to gain a chance at survival.
But from beginning to end, Ronald did not show any mercy, nor did he care about the so-called treasure.
In his eyes, wealth was just a number. If he wanted money, he could easily get it. There was no need to go through too much trouble.
“You want to kill me? Of course you have to bet your life.” Ronald chuckled and walked over to one of the Mages. Seeing the pleading look on his face, he raised his hand and took a life.
Beg?
In this place, all of this was meaningless! Ronald’s body was also stained with some blood. The thick smell of blood drifted in the air, making him look like a demon that had crawled out of hell and was constantly reaping lives.
