Immediately, the doors and windows closed shut.Not only did the door that Fred had walked in from earlier close completely, but the windows that had let light filter through also closed one after another.In just an instant, the entire main hall of the Sun Goddess Temple turned into a secret room, sealing off all Fred’s escape routes.Arnkatla, on the other hand, had already retreated the moment the main hall door closed. She was now peeking at Fred's figure through the crack of the door with a sneer on her face.Just as Fred had noticed in Astra, she was truly the vicious sort.Arnkatla was, of course, no ordinary woman since she had been sent by the Espionage Society to carry out a special operation in Somerland.Even though Fred had only met her once in Astra, Arnkatla was also aware that he had seen through her.Fred was so powerful that even four grandmasters and an S-Class assassin were unable to keep up with him. He even killed them all.This was not something Arnkatla
Boom!The four strongest realm masters of the Espionage Society put on a magnificent sight by striking at the same time. In just a split second, winds raged, and the main hall of the Sun Goddess Temple trembled from their palm strikes.After their attack, one of the realm masters immediately shook his head arrogantly and said with a sneer, "It seems that we’ve certainly gone overboard for such a small problem! How many people in the world can defend again this one palm?”"Hehe, that's true!"Another one of the realm masters also nodded, a faint smile on his face. "It’s only a pity that we took too long to strike. We were too domineering and ended up killing the brat directly. We never even got to appreciate his expression of regret and despair."But it's okay!"The remaining two realm masters just scoffed. “We can hang the brat’s body outside the temple. On the one hand, the Battle of the Gods is about to begin. Powerful individuals from all over the world will inevitably flock
At one man’s suggestion, the other three acted.Practically in an instant, the four realm masters simultaneously shifted their feet and jumped forward with ferocious killing intent as they rushed toward Fred like starving tigers.Just as one of them had suggested, they all targeted Fred’s limbs respectively with plans to break them first so that Fred would not be able to dodge or escape them.Then, they would torture him slowly.Fred did not seem to react to the four of them besieging them. He stood where he was, motionless.One of the realm masters abruptly sneered when he saw this. "So, it's really because I didn’t use my full strength just now. You brat, you can’t even react now that I’m going all out!”With that said, the realm master was the first to reach Fred. “Sirs, allow me to be the first to strike!” he sneered.Ferocious smiles appeared on the other three realm masters’ faces when they heard that.This was because the first realm master had already reached Fred."Li
All was quiet.Even the pants had completely ceased at this moment.The three realm masters that Fred was looking at now had initially worn cold and haughty expressions.This was because they were the noblest existences in the Espionage Society other than the leader!They were also the most powerful! To them, the other members of the society like Arnkatla, and the grandmasters like Lord Ulfhrafn, Lord Fridgeir, Matias, and some others, were ants!Fred, the Somerland brat who had so brazenly broken into the Espionage Society, was even more an ant!Yet what happened now?One of them already reached Fred. The first thing they were supposed to see was what they had discussed before they struck, and that was to either break an arm or leg of Fred's.Yet… Yet, Fred had just glanced at him before asking him to kneel, and he actually obliged! This was completely out of reason. One of them even rubbed his eyes thinking, that his vision was deceiving him. In fact, apart from them, e
They were now terrified as they began to withdraw their gazes from Fred.Step!Fred moved one step forward.The three of them were instantly jumpy as they took a step backward and exclaimed, “You… What do you want?”There was no answer. Fred just took another step forward.They backed up!Fred took another step.They backed up again!Fred took three steps forward this time and they did the same backward.They were losing their heads from fear as they moved backward repeatedly. One of the realm masters also almost tripped and fell.Finally, Fred stopped and said faintly, “Is this the Espionage Society of Sunrise Island?”The moment he said that, the realm masters’ faces flushed, but they did not dare refute him.None of them wanted to be the next Moritz, the next realm master to be crippled.Crash!Finally, the leader of the Espionage Society who had been sitting upright with a mask on his face stood up behind the curtains through the silence.Instantly, Fred’s aura that
How could this happen?How was this possible?The scene before the realm masters stunned them!The leader of the Espionage Society was the most unique and honorable person in the entire society!This honor was not only given to him because he was the leader who stood above tens of thousands of people. More importantly, it was because the leader was the strongest individual in the entirety of the Espionage Society.He was stronger than the four of them combined!The earth had trembled under his slowly raising hand like he was a god…Yet they could not tell what was going on clearly now. Even the leader of the Espionage Society himself might not understand what was going on as he had been sent flying by Fred’s attack like some dead dog.Was there anything more outrageous than this?"Brat, you... How did you do that?”The leader of the Espionage Society finally recovered from his daze after a long time, perhaps due to the realm masters’ piercing gazes and Fred’s attitude that wa
Almost instantly, killing intent filled the three realm masters’ eyes as they hoped for the leader of the Espionage Society to kill Fred immediately.They wanted this not only for the Espionage Society’s divine power but also to regain their dignity after having backed away repeatedly due to Fred's intimidation.The leader of the Espionage Society naturally sneered and said, "Boy, now it's my turn—”“Oh yeah?" Fred cut him off directly."You’re guarding yourself against my left hand, but what about my right hand?”Right hand?Before the Espionage Society leader could react, there was another familiar clear sound.Slap!It was the same intensity, the same feeling, and the same embarrassment!Just when Fred's right hand came swinging, the leader turned himself into a cannonball again and flew away…Outside the Sun Goddess Temple, Arnkatla and other members of the Espionage Society were all gathered here at this moment. Everyone was staring at the temple in front of them, their
Finally, the dust had settled and the victor had been decided!Not only did Arnkatla think this, but so did every member of the Espionage Society present.They even thought that this moment came a little too late!Just as the long-haired man said before, the four realm masters were the strongest apart from their leader.It was an extremely rare phenomenon in the Espionage Society’s history that four realm masters would attack at the same time!Thus, this siege should have ended a long time ago!In addition, the leader of the Espionage Society had even personally made a move. It was reasonable that the winner was decided immediately.As for who the victor and the loser was, did they even need to ask?The person who had been kicked out from the gates of the temple at this moment and had disheveled hair could only be the ignorant Somerland brat, Fred!Arnkatla immediately shouted loudly, “Fred has been defeated. Don't let him escape!"“Alright!”The long-haired man also nodded
Marciella walking away did not bode well with the giant snake. Marciella was its food! How could it accept that its food had escaped?Marciella had not moved far yet. She reluctantly looked back at Fred.She did not know how Fred would handle the River God. She could only hope Fred would be okay!When Fred saw that she had left, he geared up, rubbing his palms in glee. He had an eager look on his face, which confused the giant snake.It was the snake’s first time meeting a man like Fred!How strange indeed!At this time!Suddenly, Fred said with hostility etched on his face, "Hey, Big Snake, what are you going to do now?"The snake's attention was entirely focused on him, which seemed off to Fred."What I’m going to do?"The giant snake fixated its eyes on Fred. It felt that it could handle a human like Fred easily.“I’m going to kill you with one bite! How dare you look down on me like this!"The giant snake rushed toward Fred fiercely at a speed so fast that no one could
Fred was annoyed by the giant snake's arrogant tone. Fred squinted his eyes at the snake and asked in confusion, "Why are you making that face?"“Huh?"The giant snake was shocked. He thought that Fred would submit to him, but to his surprise, Fred was not shaken at all.The snake was about to lose his temper.“Dirty snake, haven't I made myself clear enough? I think you are probably sleep-talking if you want me to hand over my people to you..." Fred said impatiently.At this moment…Feeling that it was being ridiculed, the snake said suddenly, "You punk, this is the first time anyone spoke to me this way. What is your name?"“Me?"Fred was stunned subconsciously, not knowing what the snake wanted. Suddenly, he understood.“Did you want to know my name so you can remember me, bow down before me, and become my follower? Sure, I’ll give you that chance!"He was adding fuel to the fire. The giant snake almost spat out blood in anger!"What? You want me to follow an immature bei
Huh!?Putting aside Marciella, even Fred could not hide his shock as a giant snake appeared from under the water!A giant snake!How could it be!?Fred's eyes widened at the sheer size of the snake. "A Giant Snake… Is this the so-called River God?"Moreover, the size was humongous. The snake must be at least ten stories high!What a huge snake!Fred finally understood why he felt a powerful force under the water!There was a sharp glint in the giant snake’s eyes! That was the blinking light from time to time!"Who comes here? Are you from the village? Who do you plan to sacrifice to me this time?" As soon as the giant snake spoke, Fred realized that this was not the first time it had done this.The snake seemed familiar with the ritual process. Obviously, the villagers had witnessed this giant snake before. This was the meeting between the two sides! Fred felt uncomfortable at this. As for the giant snake, it felt bemused when it saw Fred. The snake had never seen Fred befo
Fred was going to risk it all to open this girl's eyes!The force from the punch was extraordinary! As soon as the tree was hit by the seismic fist, it fell immediately and the whole tree split neatly in two!Marciella was dumbfounded!Although she knew how powerful Fred was, to witness his power was a different thing entirely!"Master Fred, your power is insane!"Marciella could not help but applaud.Fred seemed indifferent, as though he had no feeling at all about this."Is it? Why do you think so?"He looked so indifferent.For Ancient Martial Arts, things did not get any simpler than this!"You’re so strong. Anyway, I don’t doubt you anymore..." Marciella sighed, suddenly feeling very sad. "This is the reward of being educated. If we were more knowledgeable, we wouldn’t be so clueless.”"Haha, if you can't solve your issues, your descendants can work harder," Fred said with a wink.Marciella said, "Mr. Fred, I needed to ask you something! What if our luck was changed ju
What Fred said aroused her curiosity."What does it look like when you offer a sacrifice?"Fred knew he could not speak of this matter. Sure enough, Marciella felt a little downcast after Fred said the words. She did not know why Fred would say such a thing. Suddenly, Fred felt bad about it.He coughed and said, "Don't think too much about it... I just want to find a clue. Maybe we could find a solution. Why does it never rain in your village?""Huh?"Marciella's eyes, which were still a little dejected, suddenly realized what was important and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Fred, are you saying that the reason why it never rains in our village is because someone is behind it?"Although Fred was unwilling to admit it, he could not help but nod. "Yes, this is exactly what you thought!""For real?!"Marciella felt hopeful again when she heard this. She said hastily, "The thing you asked about is pretty simple. You can just check out that place!""That place?"Fred turned around to see w
Marciella found herself nodding in agreement with Fred's harsh assessment. "You're spot on," she said. "That woman is nothing but vile!"Seeing Marciella's reaction, a rare smile crossed Fred's face as he nodded back. "Glad you see it my way," he said.What caught Fred off guard was the villagers' reaction. One by one, their faces turned ashen with despair.It seemed to them that nothing could be worse than the predicament they were facing. The absence of the witch spelled doom for the village—it was like their last shred of hope had vanished. They had all put their faith in her to charm the River God into blessing them with rain, which would have brought some peace to their troubled lives. However, now their chances seemed to have dried up just like their fields. Fred stood there, his face a mask of serenity amidst the chaos.In the moments that followed, the village chief was a picture of despair, his only option was to send everyone home while he racked his brain for a backup pl
"What?"Fred did not even have time to blink before the witch suddenly made a move.It was like a bomb went off.Kaboom!Then, she was dead!Fred dusted off his hands, even surprising himself with his lack of tolerance for the witch.Now, though, he had a real headache. He had planned to clear the air with the witch and lay out the past so everyone would know the full picture.He thought that might just turn things around.The situation changed when she vanished, and Fred's plans were completely derailed. Then again, changing the villagers' minds was not going to be a walk in the park anyway. They were pretty set in their ways, thanks to all the stuff they had been fed.As such, just talking it out might not cut it. Heck, it could even mess with history!With the witch out of the equation, Fred figured he might as well try a different tactic. Maybe if he took out the guy in the cloak and worked his own magic to bring some rain, it could save a lot of hassle. The more he thoug
"No way!"The witch bristled with defiance. She could not accept that she was no match for Fred.As she noticed Fred's focus was locked on her, a sly idea popped up in her mind.Before she could act on it, though, she found herself pinned against the wall by Fred in a flash...Her face contorted in disbelief. She was pinned so tightly that she could not even move!The witch was completely overpowered, her heart racing with panic.How could he be so much stronger than her?Fred, on the other hand, seemed unfazed."What's going through your head? You don't seriously think you can take me on, do you?" Fred asked, his voice laced with skepticism.The witch felt utterly trapped, as if at any second, Fred might just finish her off."Look, I messed up, okay? Can we not do this? I'm old, just a pile of brittle bones—I can't take this kind of rough treatment!" the witch pleaded with Fred, trying a new tactic to get through to him.Fred was not falling for it. He looked at her with a
"Heh, I caught on to you a while back, you know. You've been tailing me, and I'm pretty sure you're here for me. Plus, you don't have the look of someone from our village. That means you are an outsider, and I'm your target, right? Listen, man, we don't have any beef with each other, so why are you sticking your nose where it doesn't belong?"The witch had sensed the raw power rolling off Fred, and it was enough to send shivers down her spine!At that moment, she knew that challenging Fred was not going to be a walk in the park! If she had spotted him earlier in the forest, it would not have been good news for her. For starters, she had no clue how many tricks Fred had up his sleeve, and if he took her down, she and her buddy would be toast.However, the witch was not about to let Fred take her out without a fight! She racked her brain and finally settled on one strategy!She would try to sweet-talk him, hoping Fred would fall for her words just like everyone else, and fall into he
