Chapter 178: Shape knife, and greed eats greed

A lot of criteria had to be satisfied before this kind of stone could be formed. The gem itself didn’t contain a lot of magic warrior power like magic cores or energy stones. However, it had a different use. After finding a Magic Forge Master and getting it processed with a lot of special techniques, this gem called Son of Earth could absorb the warrior power from energy stones or energy cores and purify them to a great degree.

After a warrior used up a lot of their warrior power, they could only find a place to self-regenerate or use an energy stone or energy core to speed up that process. But if he or she had a Son of Earth gem that was reforged by a Magic Forge Master and fully charged with warrior power, they could instantly suck all that warrior power into their body and use this newfound warrior power instantly!

In terms of how much warrior power a Son of Earth gem could contain? It was up to the quality and size of the gem and the techniques and ability of the Magic Forge Master.

There was an old saying among all warriors; “Having a Son of Earth was equal to having another life!”. Although this saying was a bit exaggerated, it fully explained the value of these gems.

The Son of Earth gem that Boss Leong had was about the size of a thumb. If this Bosc was able to find a Magic Forge Master and reforge it, he could sell it for more than a hundred thousand gold coins!

Unfortunately, Magic Forge Masters were too rare to find, and there was no chance that Boss Leong could get in touch with one of them since his social class was way too low. Therefore, he had to bear the pain and sell it off to make some money.

“It is Son of Earth.” Bosc picked up the green gem off of the ground as he said with an earnest and serious expression; “A demon warrior’s second life…”

“Yeah.” Boss Leong nodded continuously as he said, “When I get the chance, I will find another one for Mr. Bosc… Ah!”

Boss Leong’s painful cries suddenly resounded in this quiet village. His fat body bent down, and only his head looked up at Bosc. His small eyes were filled with shock. He couldn’t believe what he was experiencing “Why… why is this happening?”

Boss Leong couldn’t believe why Bosc could pull out a sharp knife and attack him. He also couldn’t believe why Bosc who was a Mamen Demon and was very polite a moment ago would appear this vicious and violent.

“Why?” Bosc sneered as he looked at the two precious items in his hands, “These two items are worth fifty thousand gold coins, are they enough for me to kill you?”

“But…” Fatty Leong slowly kneeled down as he struggled to stay away from the Grim Reaper. “But, if you don’t kill me… we have more opportunities to cooperate in the future…”

“I can find someone else next time.” Bosc pushed on Fatty Leong’s forehead and sent his fat body backward. He said quietly, “Action.”

As soon as Fatty Leong got stabbed, every mercenary pulled out their weapons and started to battle with all the Belia Demons who were charging at them.

Qian Jin sighed as he looked at Boss Leong who just died. Mamen Demons were known for their greed, and they were also known for their short-sightedness. They didn’t care if they had future cooperation opportunities, and they were only able to see the benefits right close to them and could ignore the damage on their creditability. This fatty was blinded by the gold coins, so his ending wasn’t too surprising. The only thing was that this demon could just take Son of Earth of Stars Ancient Metal and go?

A Belia Demon’s axe was already right in front of Qian Jin’s forehead. This demon could already see the red and white blood and brain matter spurting out of the wound that was about to appear; bloodthirst and aggression filled his eyes.

But at the next moment, this Belia Demon felt that his hands were burning. A strong pull made his body lose balance, and he felt a tough kick against his abdomen. His body flew outward uncontrollably, and his axe also flew backward and rotated in the air. This axe quickly enlarged in his eyes as it quickly caught up to him.

Puff! The blade on the axe cut into this Belia Demon’s chest and soon nailed him onto a wooden wall of a house. Blood dripped onto the ground as it slid off of the handle of the axe.

“Sleep amongst the stars…”

Qian Jin heard the Abela’s chanting from behind and killing intent instantly filled his body! At this critical moment of a fight between citizens of the Zence Empire and the demons, the little princess of Crystal Magic Tower was trying to get the revenge of being thrown into the mud!

An unknown fire spell wasn’t targeted at the demons who were attacking them, but rather on Qian Jin.

Bam! Abela got hit at the back of her head by a palm, and her chant was instantly stopped as her body softened and fell down.

Zachery grabbed and held onto Abela with one of his arms and gestured at Qian Jin to show his apologies. After that, he turned around, left the battle, and quickly disappeared into the night with Abela.

Zachery had to go. After a simple look into Qian Jin’s eyes, he had read the determination; Qian Jin would definitely kill Abela, the uncertain factor in the team.

Zachery dashed into the dark as he turned his head and looked at everyone who was still in the battle. He sighed as he knew that he would do the same as Qian Jin if he was in his shoes. The only thing was that Torrent Battle Fort’s days at Yulee State was really not good. The reason why he was out here protecting Abela was because he was trying to get future benefits for his union. If Abela died here, Torrent Battle Fort’s life at Yulee State would be even worse than it was now; how could a warrior union formed by ordinary warriors compare with all the mages of the Crystal Magic Tower?

“Demon Fighter?” Bosc’s triangular eyes shone a murderous light. He drew out a small battle blade that was only about fifteen centimeters long out of his waist, and this blade looked extra sharp under the light of the torches. “After chopping off your head, I can get some extra monetary rewards…”

“Hey, there is also a bloodline warrior here!”

Duren Burg’s spear had turned into a spear and dashed towards Bosc as his voice still resonated in the air. Three to five spearheads appeared in the air and made it so that Bosc couldn’t tell which one was the real one. The level 6 Demon Fighter strength and the Hydra Bloodline power were both fully utilized by Duren Burg.

“Bloodline warrior? A level 1 tier 6 warrior?” Bosc let out an ear-piercing laugh as he let out the equivalent power of a level 7 Demon Fighter. The battle blade in his hands lightly buzzed with the empowerment of the warrior power as it turned into a chilly shadow and dashed towards Duren Burg’s spear.

A battle axe suddenly struck towards Qian Jin’s waist out of nowhere. At this point, Qian Jin really praised the demon’s courage and ferociousness. Although they knew that their opponents had Demon Fighters amongst them and there were more of them, they still charged and attacked to challenge the Demon Fighters.

The same thing happened again. The Belia Demon’s body flew backward and his axe soon caught up with him as it rotated in the air and nailed him onto the wall forcefully.

Qian Jin moved twice, and the two Belia Demons lost their lives! Qian Jin felt like he was fortunate enough to fight the demons under this circumstance. If he was on an actual battlefield with a ton of demons around him and attacking him, he couldn’t kill them this easily. Also, powerful demon warriors would charge at him and not let him murder their lower ranked soldiers.

A sound of clashing metal was followed by a wood breaking. Under the dark sky, the sparks made from the collision of metal were very flashy. The spear in Duren Burg’s hands broke by the wooden handle and chipped wood pieces flew everywhere. The metal spearhead that was a Warrior Weapon spun at a high speed in the air and pierced through the wall of a building and stabbed into an inner wall.

Bosc backed off for a few steps with his battle blade, and his blue skin had a red tone to it. He shook his wrist a few times as he looked at Duren Burg and praised, “Human bloodline warriors are really strong! Although you are a tier lower than me, a level 1 tier 7 warrior, you still have such a destructive power. Too bad your weapon is of inferior quality and couldn’t help you to kill me. Being able to chop off a bloodline warrior’s head? I didn’t think that I would have such a wonderful chance.”

Duren Burg’s face darkened as he shook his wrist as well as he said: “Such a sharp knife! I can still kill you without any weapon! But I didn’t expect the cycling speed of your warrior power…”

Qian Jin who was at the center of the battle frowned. He didn’t think Duren Burg who had no weapon was in an advantageous position. The knife that Bosc had was definitely a level 10 blade and almost a Warrior Weapon, and that was why it wasn’t damaged after getting struck on by Buren Burg’s spear thrust.

“Ah, let me help him.” Qian Jin took the spear that he got from Four Season Valley out of his warrior dimension; that spear was a Warrior Weapon. “But, if I lend it to this shameless guy, my chance of getting it back would be very slim.” He thought.

Despite his thoughts, he shouted at Duren Burg without any hesitation, “Duren Burg. I will lend you this!”

Qian Jin swung his waist and threw the spear at Duren Burg. After Duren Burg grabbed the spear and injected his warrior power into it, his eyes instantly shone. A bright smile appeared on his face as he shouted back: “My comrade! Thank you for gifting me this spear that represents our friendship.”

An impulse of throwing a rock at him appeared in Qian Jin head. He thought that this shameless dude would try to not to return the Warrior Weapon after the battle was over, but this guy said the spear was a gift right after he got it.

This guy was on another level of shameless. Even if Rollin revived and was standing here, he couldn’t do any better!

The spear was attacking like a dragon! When the Warrior Weapon got into Duren Burg’s hands, it looked like life was injected to the spear. Seven spearheads instantly appeared in the air and the magnificent killing intent enveloped Bosc.

Qian Jin stopped looking at Duren Burg. None of the bloodline warriors were made out of mud. The Hydra Bloodline was one of the top ten bloodlines at Zence Empire for a reason. If Duren Burg couldn’t handle Bosc who was only the equivalent of a level 7 Demon Fighter, then where would be no point for him to live! Although he wasn’t born in the Hydra Bloodline Family, he was still a powerful bloodline warrior.

Some time had passed since the human warriors started fighting with the demon warriors. Although there were more mercenaries, they didn’t get the advantage. If Fanta Kunge who was a level 3 Demon Fighter didn’t lead the fight, they probably would be in big trouble.

As he stared at Fanta Kunge who was in the heat of the battle, Qian Jin praised, “This is a Demon Fighter! If Fanta Kunge wasn’t here, the mercenaries would end up losing. But since a level 3 Demon Fighter was here to lead them, their courage and hope all got higher.

“Let the mercenaries suffer less injuries and causalities.” Qian Jin thought as he jumped into a group of Belia Demons. He moved his index finger to the side of an enemies’ head and poked. Puff! Like a watermelon was punctured by a big nail, the [Dividing Metal Multi-Chops] that was mimicked by Wind and Cloud Warrior Power instantly broke through a Belia Demon’s head.
