Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps_l
Translator: 549690339
After a moment of stillness, and before part of the crowd could react, the scene rapidly shifted from quiet to lively again, filled with an air of schadenfreude.
Upon careful observation, the surrounding merchants, mercenaries, and soldiers all bore a gleeful smirk.
They looked in the direction of Leo Ray, whispering and beginning to discuss amongst themselves.
“Hmm, this young whippersnapper of unknown origins dares to mess with the
Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps? Quite brave.”
“Yeah, he seems to have the power of a Tier 1 Nine-Star, such a waste of youth.
I’m guessing it’s going to end with him being crippled by the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps, right? I wonder if anyone would be able to save a limb for him?
“You see the guy next to him wearing the priest robe? I think a nun’s habit would suit him better, hahaha! ”
“And the burly one who looks strong, probably didn’t have the aptitude so he had to resort to building muscles. He looks intimidating, but he probably wouldn’t stand a chance against a Mushroom-hitting Pig?”
“You loudmouths, keep it down and enjoy your tea! It’s delightful to watch the show whilst sipping tea, isn’t it? Natural milk tea from the Hundred Ranges, only ten Silver Dragons a cup! Limited stock, first come first serve!”
On the other side, Leo Ray faintly curled his lips upon hearing the enthusiastic chatter of the onlookers.
Just now, because Stella Clark’s kick was too fast, the attention of the surrounding audience was only drawn when the unfortunate chap was sent flying yet again.
Moreover, the four companions at his side had all suppressed their aura to the minimum, virtually indistinguishable from normal people.
Due to the vast gap in power, these mercenaries, who were all at the peak of their second tier, couldn’t identify them at all.
As a result, he, a Tier 1 Nine-Star, oddly became the strongest among the five of them in everyone’s eyes.
Understandably, everyone naturally assumed that it was him who had booted the opponent away earlier.
At this moment, Leo Ray couldn’t help but sigh: “Good gracious, I just wanted to take a leisurely stroll through the city. Why does it have to be so challenging?
On the other side, others: Taylor, Gideon Black, Serena Clark, and Stella Clark, have all heard the mockery from the crowd.
Already enraged, their eyes glinted with a chilling cold that was not easily detectable.
These lowly creatures could discuss anything else, but the fact that they dared to discuss the Lord was unforgivable!
Signaling the others to stay calm, Leo Ray, who was surrounded in the center, continued to ponder his next move.
At this moment, he had no doubts that as soon as he, in his capacity as the Lord, gave an order, the area would soon be eternally quiet within a short period of time.
However, this move was obviously pointless and would only disrupt their original plan, especially since they were all foreigners here.
If they were to act now, it would inevitably alarm various forces within the city.
As for the chatty onlookers, Leo Ray didn’t take them to heart.
When the time was ripe and their power was fully revealed, these people would naturally bow at their feet.
Meanwhile, three menacing-looking mercenaries had already shoved through the crowd and were striding towards them.
These people were the unfortunate fellow’s companions from the Blood
Scorpion Mercenary Corps, who had a great advantage in their previous fight.
Without even glancing at these mercenaries who were gradually approaching,
Leo Ray took the chance to notice-
Another weaker mercenary squad had basically been wrecked, with three of their members lying unconscious on the ground.
Two other mercenaries, a man and a woman, were barely standing due to their injuries. They were being held captive by a member of the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps. Their necks had swords pressed against them, making them unable to move.
Looking at the familiar battered female mercenary, Leo Ray couldn’t help but frown: “I feel like I’ve seen this young female swordsman somewhere before.”
“Lord, that female mercenary used to travel with Merchant Kenneth in the forest. She is one of the surviving mercenaries. I think her name is… Hanna Shawn.”
At this moment, Serena Clark whispered from the side.
“So it’s her.”
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray immediately showed a sudden realization on his face.
On the other side, the three menacing mercenaries had come close and were slightly spread out, forming a semi-encirclement.
At first glance, under two large and small suns, three blades coated with traces of blood emitted a chilling glow. It was as if signaling a ruthless slaughtering was about to happen.
Meanwhile, the other onlooking mercenaries and merchants subconsciously stepped back a few steps, making a large space for them and forming a new ring for the fights.
For a moment, all kinds of glances filled with malice, laughter, and sympathy were thrown in their direction.
After all, in the Blood Scorpion’s camp, there were two battle-hardened Tier 2 powerhouses and one Tier 1 Peak about to break into Tier 2.
On the other hand, among that young man’s team, only he himself was a Tier 1 Nine-Star, and the other four, though uniquely dressed, were not even considered as powerful individuals.
With such a power disparity, the outcome was self-evident.
At this moment, many spectators already had a picture in their minds of the victorious faces of the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps.
Immediately, from the trio of the Blood Scorpion Mercenaries, a man with a long-handled axe and a grey light armor stepped forward.
With a touch of ease, he swung his weapon that weighed at least a hundred pounds, spun it in the air, then forcefully landed it onto the ground, attracting gasps from the spectators.
“That’s Noah Woods, the vice-captain of the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps! I heard he recently reached the state of a Tier 2 Five-star. He once killed a mature Tier 2 Six-star Demon Beast, the Armored Ground Dragon, with a single axe strike!”
“A Armored Ground Dragon with a skin that’s on par with a high-grade Tier 2 heavy armor? Isn’t that attack comparable to a Tier 2 Peak powerhouse? The ones on the other side are surely doomed.”
“Alas, why do these foreigners step on everyone’s toes, just to mess with the famous Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps of Cyan Town?”
At the gasps of the surrounding mercenaries, a smirk of pride appeared on the face of a man named Noah Woods.
First, he took a lascivious look up and down Serena and Stella’s bodies and then held his axe in a threatening pose and grimly addressed Leo Ray: “Boy, you dared to attack the Blood Scorpion Mercenary Corps. I don’t care if it was intentional. Today, none of you are leaving Cyan Town!”
“Well, I never thought I would experience such a familiar scene for myself one day..”
