Chapter 242: Aftermath
Jake had just finished dealing a major blow to the Fang hunters by killing their second in command and now, he was gently walking towards Alex who was still out cold on the floor.
Jake's body was still sparking so he used that to touch Alex and immediately, Alex felt a jolt of lightning go through him which jolted him awake as he snapped his eyes wide open and then he looked around when his eyes landed on Jake.
Jake was still on edge as he was wondering if Alex was back or not and then he saw Alex smile.
"I can't believe you completely overpowered me without allowing me to even put up a fight. You are truly a monster." Alex smiled as he slowly got up while twisting his elbow that was broken by Jake and then he swung his hands around.
Seeing Alex back, Jake finally relaxed as the lightning coursing through him receded and Jake fell on one knee as he was exhausted but he could still fight.
Alex stood up and supported Jake while glancing around the room and his eyes laid on the damage that had been dealt to the room and also Clark's body which was laying in the pool of blood.
"Damn! You really did a lot." Alex commented.
"And the fight isn't over yet." Jake said.
"What do you mean?" Alex asked.
Jake didn't respond as he snatched Alex's sword away from him and then he opened the door of the meeting room while glancing at the long staircase that had all the adventurers in the building running up on it heading towards the meeting room. Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire
"Oh! I see what you mean now." Alex sighed.
"Since we are out of that room, I'm sure that our communication is back. Contact Helen and tell them to come over." Jake ordered and Alex got to work.
"Oh!And Alex, I will be a little weak after this." Jake said as he lifted the giant sword in the air above his head as he stared at the dozens of men heading their way with their different weapons.
Jake instantly poured all his Qi into the sword making it not only glow bright, it was shaking tremendously and even cracks were starting to form on it as it couldn't contain the amount of energy Jake was giving it.
'I thought this sword was strong enough to handle this much energy but I guess I was wrong.' Jake thought as he was finally done and he opened his eyes to see the men almost close.
In one smooth motion, Jake quickly swung the sword down and called out. "QI Slash!" And a humongous size of crescent yellow Qi energy came out and crashed into the men at the front slicing them all easily without any resistance.
The energy kept moving and slicing through all the men. Some tried to use their Qi or weapons to combat and try to break the energy but they were unsuccessful as the energy passed through them and totally destroyed them.
Some even tried running away and they were somewhat lucky as the energy finally disappeared after going through five rows with each row having about 20 adventurers heading Jake's way.
So in total, the Qi slash killed 100 men while leaving a measly 20 men alive. Alex who was at the back watching had his mouth open in shock and then dread quickly filled his heart.
'This guy keeps getting stronger everytime. How is he doing this? Although he wouldn't be able to defeat my dad, Jake will surely give him a tough time with the way he is getting so strong.' Alex thought.
"Alex!" Jake called out as he threw the sword towards Alex and he had easily caught the sword by its handle.
"It's all up to you now." Jake said as he weakly walked away from the still stunned adventurers.
Alex not wasting time, jumped from where he was and landed in front of one of the adventurers who was at least seven feet away from him and in an instant, the man's head was seen rolling on the floor.
'I wasn't able to do anything against Clark as he had completely overwhelmed me. Then Jake came over and completely overpower me also making me feel weak and useless. But now is my time to shine!' Alex said in his head as he looked at the adventurers that were ready to fight back.
"I'm sure he isn't as strong as that other monster, let's kill him and finally we can get rid of that monster while he is at his weakest!" an adventurer was heard shouting.
"Well, I can't stand around and let you hurt the boss now would I?" Alex asked as his Qi quickly expanded outwardly and was now visible outwardly like a flame.
Then the Qi flame slithered towards his sword while making it burn bright and strong.
"Although I have a huge Qi reserve than others, but compared to Jake there, it's nothing. But my Qi reserve is still enough to do this!" Alex said as he quickly swirled the Qi to his feet to give him a speed boost.
And in flash, Alex pounced from his position to one of the adventurers nearby then he slammed his sword into his head therefore killing him immediately. Another one threw out lots of Qi projectiles towards Alex and he was able to avoid each and everyone of them.
Then in the next second, the man's head was rolling on the floor. Alex was currently moving almost like a blur as everywhere he went to, dear bodies followed and out of the 20 men, 10 were left.
Then to the adventurers, Alex did something strange as he flipped backwards causing him to land in the exact same spot Jake stood on earlier then he lifted his sword high above his head.
To those watching, it was almost a repeat of what Jake did and they knew what was coming so they tried to make a break for it but before they could, they felt something restraining their movements and no matter how much they tried to move, they were unable to.
Unknown to them that Alex had used the last bit of his Qi to create invisible chains that made them stuck in their position. After getting them to stay still, Alex continued what he was doing.
As his sword was now vibrating with more power and the cracks on the sword was getting larger and larger while the fiery Qi was burning fiercely. In one smooth motion, Alex swung his sword down and an aura of fiery Qi spread out and crashed into the adventurers.
The adventurers felt their bodies being sliced up while still burnt alive. And after a few seconds, they were all dead like the rest of their comrades.
Immediately the last body fell down, the doors to the hall burst open and four familiar faces were seen walking through the room.
"What the hell did you guys do!" Peter said in shock.
