Chapter 753: Chapter 753 Pathetic Peak Form Marquis
The massive sphere of light got sucked into my stomach as I opened my mouth!
They watched as the sphere shrank smaller and smaller, until it vanished completely!
I patted my stomach and belched, satisfaction spreading across my face.
"Not bad; feels good," I said, grinning.
Bert Mercer, standing not far off, had an unbearable look on his face! Sweat poured from his forehead.
"How... how is this possible..." Bert swallowed hard, seeming unable to believe what he was seeing.
I glanced coldly at Bert, remarking, "If this is your trump card, then you’re heading straight to your grave."
Bert Mercer gritted his teeth and, gripping his automatic crossbow, said coldly, "Mason Raymond, you are going too far!"
After that, Bert went crazy, grabbing the crossbow in his hand and repeatedly firing techniques at me!
The sky filled with blazing light, nearly tearing apart the ground beneath us!
Yet I, glowing with golden light, remained completely unharmed.
Despite the heavy bombardment, I stayed in perfect condition.
"Are you finished? My turn," I said coldly.
Bert wiped the sweat from his forehead; just as he was about to speak, I vanished into thin air!
The next second, he saw a golden flash before his eyes.
Then, a massive fist came crashing down on the automatic crossbow!
"Boom!"
My fist, carrying the force of ten thousand pounds and wrapped in golden light, smashed the automatic crossbow to pieces!
Bert Mercer’s pride and joy, his weapon, was destroyed!
"You... you actually wrecked my weapon!" Bert Mercer turned deathly pale!
I sneered, "As far as I know, most of your strength comes from this weapon, right?"
Bert Mercer’s face went white, but he said nothing.
"Without this weapon now, your Peak Form of Military Marquis is probably just hot air," I looked down at Bert with cold killing intent in my eyes.
Bert gritted his teeth and roared, "Mason Raymond, don’t get so cocky!"
After saying that, Bert clenched his fist and swung hard at me!
Although Bert is, after all, at the Peak Form of Military Marquis Realm, his power goes without question.
But this punch landed on me without leaving so much as a scratch; instead, the impact hurt his own wrist badly!
"This... this..." Bert backed up a few steps, panic flickering across his face, before he tried to run!
But how could I give him that chance? A large, golden hand appeared, covering the sky and earth, and slammed down on Bert, pinning him to the ground!
A huge handprint appeared on the ground.
And Bert’s body was nearly flattened into a pancake!
Before Bert could get up, a golden fist was already dropping from the sky!
"Boom!"
With the impact of this punch, Bert’s spine shattered on the spot! Dozens of bones were instantly crushed to powder!
Bert tried to get up, but found that without his bones supporting him, he couldn’t stand at all!
"So, this is the Peak Form of Military Marquis Realm? Pathetic," I coldly looked at Bert.
Bert said painfully, "Spare me... I beg you... spare me..."
"Spare you? You’ve got blood on your hands, and you’ve lived decades too long. Time to pay up," I said coldly.
Bert wanted to say something else, but I didn’t give him the chance.
I reached out a palm, aiming for Bert’s dantian.
The next second, I tightened my fingers and ripped Bert’s golden core out of his belly.
Bert Mercer’s life force rapidly drained away, and in moments, he became a cold corpse.
I played with the golden core, surprised to find that this golden core was several points larger than all the golden cores I had seen before.
"Could it be that the golden core of the Peak Form of Military Marquis is bigger?" I wondered silently.
I didn’t rush to swallow the golden core. Instead, I planned to save it for the day I would break through to Martial Saint rank.
Pocketing the golden core, I picked up Bert Mercer’s corpse and walked towards Elena Green.
"Mr. Raymond, your strength truly amazes everyone around you," Elena Green said with a smile.
"In just two years, Mr. Raymond has shown such power. It’s truly incredible," she added.
I laughed and said, "Miss Green, you’re too kind."
At one side, Saumel Baton remarked, "No wonder Miss Sean likes you. Mr. Raymond, you’re truly like a legendary hero, full of charm."
The praise from the two made me somewhat embarrassed.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll head out," I said.
Elena Green laughed and said, "Alright, Mr. Raymond, see you at the Martial Arts Academy in a few days."
I agreed before leaving with Bert Mercer’s corpse.
——
The next day.
As Ms. Zackary was about to leave the Capital City Martial Arts Association and head to the Martial Arts Academy, she saw the corpse hanging at the gate.
Upon seeing the corpse, Ms. Zackary’s face drastically changed!
Even though Mercer’s body was almost completely destroyed, Ms. Zackary recognized him immediately.
"Bert Mercer... he’s actually dead," Ms. Zackary said with a face cold as ice.
"Ms. Zackary, what... what happened here?" Phoebe Billy, pretending to be surprised, asked.
Ms. Zackary didn’t answer, but ordered, "Get rid of the corpse."
"Yes!" Phoebe Billy replied, quickly nodding.
He was thrilled deep down.
He never expected that Bert Mercer would be killed by Mason Raymond!
Remember, Mercer was in the Peak Form of Military Marquis Realm!
"It seems my choice was right," Phoebe Billy thought to himself.
Without another word, Ms. Zackary turned around and headed towards the Martial Arts Academy.
Once at the Martial Arts Academy, Ms. Zackary went straight to Leticia’s room.
"Ms. Zackary." Upon seeing Ms. Zackary, Leticia stood up immediately.
Ms. Zackary said curtly, "Leticia, come with me right now."
"Where to?" Leticia asked, somewhat surprised.
Ms. Zackary coldly replied, "I need to take you to the Mystic Realm, we can’t wait any longer."
"To the Mystic Realm?" Leticia was even more confused.
Ms. Zackary glanced at him and said, "Bert Mercer died at the hands of Mason Raymond. This clearly shows that Mason Raymond is not the same as before."
"To prevent any accidents, I’ll take you to bathe in Mabel Sean’s blood and inherit her bloodline powers."
Leticia laughed and said, "Ms. Zackary, there’s no need for that. That Mason Raymond is nothing."
"Yeah, I’m just a nobody, why worry?" Just then, a voice suddenly came from the door.
Ms. Zackary’s face turned cold as she darkly said, "Mason Raymond, who invited you here?"
I glanced at Leticia before saying with slight mockery, "Seems like you don’t have much confidence in the dog you’re training."
"Mason Raymond, you’re asking for death!" Triggered by my words, Leticia stepped forward, his aura exploding with force!
