Chapter 652 - Returning to the Ancient Dreams (31)
Chapter 652 of "MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again" kicks off revealing secrets: Gui Heās Blood Qi was a full three parts more than Lu Hongās, and since... Keep reading!
Gui Heās Blood Qi was a full three parts more than Lu Hongās, and since learning those three active skills of the Angry Blood Warrior from Lu Hong, Gui He had already made a basic judgment about this professionāthe fearlessness in the face of group assaults!
Witnessing Gui He being engulfed by the crowd of Leopard people, everyone present was pessimistic about Gui Heās fate. After all, there were far too many foes; even if Gui He was strong, there had to be a limit to his power, certainly...
In a single breath, streaks of blood light burst forth, continuously spurting out from within the Leopard crowdās encirclement.
The next second, a river of blood tens of meters wide burst forth from the void, rampaging through the Leopard crowd like a Barbaric Bull. The weaker Leopard people were grievously injured upon contact with the Blood Riverātheir hearts and lungs shattered. If not for their beastly transformations enhancing their physiques, they might have already met their doom.
Though not dead, those Leopard people lost the ability to fight again.
Looking at the rows of fallen Leopard people, the audience erupted: "Certainly... Thatās bullshit! Who the hell can tell me why Gui He is so freaking awesome?"
Looking at the younger generation he had cultivated for many years crumbling to pieces with just one strike from Gui He, Bao Si nearly leaped up in rage.
Under the onslaught of Blood Transverse Sky, only a dozen or so Leopard people struggled to hold on.
But Gui He voluntarily retracted the power of his Blood Qi and spoke, "Come on, let me see the battle skills of your Leopard tribe."
Feeling humiliated, the Leopard people let out furious howls, charging at Gui He from all directions.
Facing the encircling attack, Gui He took a deep breath and completely removed the enhancement of his Blood Qi. The green turtle shield on his back erupted with light, firmly protecting him.
The next moment, countless clinking sounds rang incessantly.
The Leopard people fiercely clawed and bit, but the green light surrounding Gui He was like a heavenly rift separating two worldsāso close, yet eternally untouchable.
Down in the viewing area, Elder Turtle Secondās mind was in complete disarray. Initially, the mysterious power that Gui He displayed was not something owned by the Turtle clan, exceptionally strong and unpredictable. But now, the Bloodline Power that Gui He was triggeringāhow could it possibly be more formidable than what he had displayed himself? How old was Gui He? How could his Bloodline Power be stimulated to such an extent? At least six levels up, right?
Elder Turtle Second shifted his gaze to the turtle patterns on Gui Heās back, Seven... Seven... Seven patterns?!
From one to twelve, these were the signs of the Turtle clanās Bloodline Power manifesting. When the Turtle Bloodline Power was activated, a mysterious green turtle shell would appear on the Turtle clanās back. The mystical patterns on the shell represented the level of Bloodline Power one possessed. Members of Elder Turtle Secondās generation, the mainstay of the family, were generally around the ninth to tenth level, and this level of Bloodline Power corresponded to between Third Transition levels three and seven.
With seven mystical patterns, Gui Heās Bloodline Power could already crush any master below the Second-Transformation Peakāthose few early stage Second Transition Leopard people naturally fought in vain, unable to break through Gui Heās defenses.
Elder Turtle Second stared intently at the mystical patterns on Gui Heās back, eager to understand why Gui He, whose Bloodline Power was just barely at level four a year ago, could have such a dramatic growth in combat power in such a short time.
Under intense scrutiny, Elder Turtle Second indeed noticed something amiss.
The mystical patterns on Gui Heās back were no longer purely green but were tinged with a faint shade of blood.
Was it that mysterious force that had spurred the growth of Gui Heās Bloodline?
Elder Turtle Second made up his mind; regardless of the outcome, he must take Gui He back to the Eastern Sea headquarters. Once Gui He could reveal his secret, the Turtle clan would undoubtedly emerge as a powerful and influential family among the beast clans in a short period, freeing themselves from the fate of servitude!
Bao Si had the opposite idea of Elder Turtle Second, determined to kill Gui He after witnessing his astonishing performance. Bao Si resolved that Gui He must not be allowed to walk out of the boxing gym alive!
As Gui He prepared to execute those few Leopard people, Bao Si made his move.
But this move was completely within Gui Heās control.
Gui He was waiting for Bao Si!
From the beginning of the wager, Gui He had been fishingāwaiting for Bao Si to lose his composure and strike first.
With Bao Siās move, the Leopard clan would no longer have the moral high ground, and should Bao Si fail to kill Gui He, their mismatched status would result in severe sanctions from the Judgment Office, greatly impacting both him and the Leopard clan.
This was a decree set by the once three great top Heavenly Gods of the beast clans, aimed at protecting the growth of the young beastfolk from persecution.
Bao Siās speed was incredibly fast, and with strength comparable to that of a Second-Transformation Peak warrior, he completed his beast transformation almost instantly. The ferocious aura swept through the entire boxing gym, causing those poor spectators to go limp under Bao Siās display of oppressive might. The high-level racial pressure of the leopard nearly dominated everyone present.
In the blink of an eye, Bao Siās claws had already touched Gui Heās green barrier that was close to his body.
The sound of a crisp crack echoed as the protective turtle shell on Gui Heās back shattered directly under the oppressive force of raw, barbaric strength.
Without his shell, Gui He was not without the ability to fight.
At that moment, Gui He endured the backlash from his shellās breaking; the blood qi that had been forced into his heart erupted like a volcano.
"Blood Qi Shockwave!"
Along with Gui Heās roar, the violent Bloodline Power exploded thunderously.
Bao Siās claws had clearly pierced the opponentās skin, touching the spine.
But the powerful impact that followed made it impossible for him to advance even a fraction of an inch further.
Not only that, the force of the impact that burst forth made Bao Si feel a lethal threat.
The two were too close that by the time Bao Si realized something was amiss, it was far too late to defend himself.
With a thunderous bang!
The violent shockwave of the Angry Blood Warrior destroyed the boxing gym and almost demolished the entire street.
Thanks to the defensive power of the turtle bloodline, Gui "Uncle" He, like a rubber ball, was flung far away, rolling unstoppably.
After he stabilized his form, Gui "Uncle" He first checked on his son, then looked with concern toward the ruins of the boxing gym.
When the dust settled, Bao Si was kneeling on the ground, and Gui He was standing over him with a sword pressed against his shoulder, grinning, "Mr. Bao Si, you... youāve lost!"
Yes, Bao Si lost. It wasnāt that he lacked the ability to defeat Gui He at that moment but rather it became unnecessary.
Even if Bao Si were to desperately defeat Gui He now, he would have no chance of killing him.
The commotion was too great, and he believed that people from the Judgment Office were already on their way. Those monsters loyal to the Heavenly Godās laws could almost reach any corner of the capital within three minutes.
"You still have two more minutes, wonāt you try again?"
After hearing Gui Heās precise timing, Bao Si voluntarily reversed his beast transformation, sat down with a thud, and shook his head slightly, "Youāve calculated it all, how could you not have a backup plan? Itās just a shame for my leopard clan... ah!"
Gui He did not speak, still wary of Bao Si, until the arrival of three Judgment Officers.
A Lionheart beastman strode up to them and scolded, "Fighting in the capital, causing severe damage to the city, violates law number seven, according to which you should be detained and can only leave after paying a full fine!"
Having finished speaking, the Lionheart Judgment Officer frowned and looked down at Bao Si, "Bao Si, by taking action against a junior with your senior status, you have broken law number three. You! Including your leopard clan! Will all be punished. From this moment on, all members of the leopard clan must move out of the capital, not to return for five years, and compensate the turtle clan with eight hundred thousand Gold Coins. In addition to this, your leopard clan must gather five thousand warriors to enter the Ice Polar Mines, and atone for your clanās sins for thirty years!"
The words of the Lionheart Judgment Officer sounded like a verdict on the fate of the leopard clan, and now, the once glorious leopard clan was headed for decline.
And all this was because of that turtle youth who had been expelled from the capital; today, he had returned, with a substantial force, stepping over the entire leopard clan to declare his comeback to the capital!
The other two Judgment Officers took Bao Si into custody, but the Lionheart Judgment Officer turned to Gui He and said, "Youāre quite impressive, brave and capable. I now officially invite you on behalf of the Judgment Office to join."
"Thank you for your favor, Sir, but Gui He has no desire for that, I hope you understand."
The Lionheart Judgment Officer wasnāt surprised by Gui Heās polite refusal, he nodded and said, "Come with me to the Judgment Office, you wonāt be free until your family gathers the compensation."
Gui He turned his head to Gui "Uncle" He in the distance and called out, "Uncle, remember to get the money from the leopard clan first, then hurry to the Judgment Office to redeem me, okay?"
