Chapter 775 Sages Battle (1)
"What are you doing here? What is your purpose in invading Leopoldine?" One of the men from the Jansen family there was the first to say something, questioning the obvious.
Hearing this, one of the strongest men there looked at the Jansen family expert and ignored him. "It's not strange that three of you are at the 5th level. Those old siblings were expected to reach our level one day.
But what about the rest of you?" He looked mainly at the women of Lothur, who were at level 23, even though their soul powers were weaker than those of the level 22 men in his group.
He insisted, speaking in a louder tone. "Where did you come from? How did you manage to reach these levels at such a young age? And more importantly, what are you doing in Leopoldine?"
If it were Viktoria who was there, this person and the others would recognize her as Lothur Ritter's wife and the controller of the Ritter Motor Company. But these others had been in seclusion for months, and few foreigners could connect them with the company their states wanted.
As for Lothur, with his altered appearance and hair color, no one there could tell that he was the founder of this company and the alleged hybrid.
The elder of the Jansen family saw his question being ignored and clenched his fists, glaring at the Sages at the 2nd Catastrophe.
Lothur laughed and said. "The dead don't need to know. I hope that with your deaths, your families will not make the mistake of continuing to defy us!"
As he said these words, Lothur moved and activated his Storm ability, focusing on the area around him to prevent enemies from escaping.
Simultaneously with this activation, he crossed the space and appeared among the enemy Sages, surprising them with his boldness.
"You bastard! Are you underestimating us?" One of the two level 23 Sages looked at Lothur angrily and attacked him, forming several spiritual spears around him and charging at this enemy.
But Lothur didn't want to risk a prolonged battle that might draw the attention of the enemies hunting him, so he sped things up, manipulating space while his hands went to the heels of those two Sages.
Lothur had such high affinities and resistances for his level that he could control space so easily that the two level 23 Sages were shocked.
When they felt their heels being wrapped by Lothur's hands, they both looked at that part of their bodies, which had already turned pale, in astonishment.
As good as the special abilities of Soul Bones were, and as much as they contributed to a cultivator's martial prowess, they weren't the best abilities in this world.
The best skill one could have was the ability to manipulate space, which everyone had at a high level, but only a few could develop to a high level.
Soul Bones could help refine these abilities with their absorption bonuses, and once refined to a certain level, such an ability could give one such control over the battlefield and the enemies that its user could be almost invincible!
That's why the two of them shuddered at how easily Lothur could manipulate space, afraid not only of what might happen in this battle but also of what this guy would become if he were allowed to develop further.
"Shit!"
"You really are a monster. I didn't expect that!"
They both shouted simultaneously, the stronger one already activating his ultimate skill as he was pulled through the spatial crack to where Lothur was.
This level 23 man activated his Infinite Void ability, which could destroy everyone in the area, including his teammates.
Feeling the special fluctuation of this ability, which came from a Platinum-grade Soul Bone from an Emperor demon, everyone there except Lothur changed their expressions and became more serious as they tried to retreat.
Confident in Lothur, his two women and the three descendants of Mathias hesitated only for a second before looking at each other and moving against the three enemies trying to escape.
Meanwhile, Lothur smiled as he closed his eyes and felt the special power of this enemy's Soul Bone.
"This is a good skill... I hope the bone is a match for me." He murmured as he opened his eyes, and red patterns quickly formed on his face.
At that moment, the two Sages appeared at Lothur's side, both held by their heels as if they were two swords pointed lightly at the ground.
But their position gave them a better view of the red giant behind Lothur, a creature with an extremely frightening demonic form.
It had horns on its head, a terrifying look on its face, and macabre symbols that made one shudder.
Like a devouring ability, this red giant was the enemy of life; anyone in its presence would feel the threat to their lives and the powerful restrictions imposed by such a being.
Using his best skill, the strongest Sage realized this, and for the first time in his existence, he noticed someone capable of stopping the Infinite Void!
Not only did his ability stop, but while Lothur's bloodline ability showed itself, that other ability regressed!
"No! This can't be!" This person shouted while his level 23 ally paled as he realized what Lothur was.
"So that's why. That's why you all advanced! You submitted to this creature!" The other shouted with hatred, seeing that Lothur was a damned hybrid of human and demon and that these women and the three siblings had succumbed to him.
All the others there trembled with more fear than before when they realized what Lothur was, already breaking into a cold sweat as they tried to escape the area.
"Trying to escape? I don't think so." Elke appeared in front of one of them and activated her highest level Soul Bone's ability.
She stood before the man and delivered a powerful palm strike to the chest of the individual trying to fly away.
The moment she hit him, Elke made him jump in pain. However, an instant after his body changed shape and began to move toward Lothur's red mist, something strange happened.
The soul of that individual left his body and flew uncontrollably towards where Lothur was.
"What?" One of the other two men watched in amazement.
Annaliese also watched her harem sister and smiled, seeing how special Elke's most refined ability was that she could now temporarily remove the souls of her targets from their bodies, rendering them defenseless.
Seeing this, the brown-haired woman didn't want to be left behind and used her own Platinum-grade Soul Bone, joined her hands into a seal, and then made a portal appear behind the other shocked Sage.
This portal seemed to be made of water. In fact, it looked like the entrance to a pipe.
Annaliese's enemy looked back and saw it as he felt an unparalleled attraction between his body and it, gradually ceasing to fly forward and being pulled back.
"Shit!" He realized that once inside, he would be hurled at high speed towards the place where Lothur was, and he felt death approaching.
