I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot Chapter 1243: 18.81 First Grey Star - Under Attack

Chapter 1243: 18.81 First Grey Star - Under Attack

Capital City

The reddish sun began to set in the west, gradually fading the light from the world. People were on their way home from work, some restaurants were still open, and some families were enjoying their evening dinner together. Some people were running home to see their loved ones. It was a peaceful scene to enjoy.

The four great clans represent the four main elements: fire, wind, water, and earth. The Lu Clan represents fire, the Mo Clan represents water and ice, the Fu Clan represents wind, and the Clan of Yi represents earth. These clans are the pillars of the capital city and a symbol of strength.

Other clans, such as the Gu Clan, are considered only second to these four great clans, but because they specialize in one element, they cannot be included.

Aside from the four great clans, clans that house a Heavenly Guardian are another symbol of strength, not only in the palace but also in the world. These Heavenly Guardians protect humanity's danger zone, preventing high-cla.s.s beings from emerging and leaving the land where humans live.

The majority of these clans possessing Heavenly Guardians belong to the neutral faction, meaning they have no allegiance to the royal family or the n.o.bility and exist purely for the sake of their own families or the city as a whole.

Nightfalls...

A few of the creatures that had infiltrated the city had divided into factions; one was moving toward the Gu Clan, another toward the Lu and Mo Clan, and a few toward the city's center to stir up trouble. The Barbarians moved simultaneously, and as the populace was finis.h.i.+ng their supper, big, nude men began to appear in various places.

The barbarians materialized right in front of the palace in the middle of the city, much to the amazement of the locals who at first were unable to identify these strangers. The strangeness of the scene ended when one of the common people, rus.h.i.+ng home, happened to run into the barbarians.

Thud!

"Ouch! Don't suddenly stop and stupidly go on the road! Hey! Are you listening?"

The man's last memory was of a ma.s.sive morning star falling over him, smas.h.i.+ng him completely into a paste of meat and blood, splattering flesh and organs across the road before the previously audible commotion abruptly stopped and some nearby people started throwing up.

Urgh~ Pukes!!

There are some people who finally recognize these beings and start shouting.

"B-Bar...barians. These men are barbarians! Run for your lives!!!"

AHHHH!! NOOO!! HAHHHH!!!!

Seeing the weak humans running around them, the barbarians chuckled and started a ma.s.sacre in the middle of the city.

"Gegege~ Weak Humans! All should die!!!"

"Kill! Kill all these weaklings until the strong one appears!!!"

The disturbance reached the ears of the palace and was reported to King Xingmo. Immediately, the center of the city was filled with blood, flesh, and organs dispersed over the cemented road at the walls of the houses and buildings. There is death everywhere.

At the palace,

"Your Majesty! The barbarians had sneaked inside the city and started a ma.s.sacre! What should be done?"

"Let's go! Those rude primitives should be killed. Find the Barbarian King and Heavenly Guardian Yi Kun for this Emperor!" w.a.n.g Xingmo commanded.

The knights saluted before heading out of the palace to battle the barbarians in the capital city. The group of five adversaries that materialized in the city center was merely a distraction. There were more barbarians elsewhere.

Meanwhile, at the Gu Clan...

Heavenly Guardian Gu had drunk too much tonight and did not antic.i.p.ate the Barbarians storming into their mansion tonight, so the Gu Clan had just celebrated the unfortunate circ.u.mstances facing the n.o.ble Faction by being forced to buy their resources at five times the original price.

Over half of the Gu Clan members were slain in this surprise attack; by the time the Heavenly Guardian Gu and his son heard the message, many of their people had already perished, and the messenger himself had been smeared in blood on his way to deliver the news.

"My Lord, Young Lord! The Barbarians had appeared in the territory. They started killing everyone on sight. Please help us, my lord!"

Heavenly Guardian Gu frowned at this situation. "How is the reaction in the other clans and the palace?"

"Answering to the Lord, there was no response. They, like us, must be under attack as well."

"How many have entered our territory?" Heavenly Guardian Yi Kun asked.

"There should be ten barbarian warriors. What should we do, my lord?"

Heavenly Guardian Gu looked at his son, Gu Hen, and didn't speak right away, making his own son a bit uncomfortable.

Gu Hen asked, "Father, what should we..."

Heavenly Guardian Gu gave his son his final embrace before pa.s.sing him to the knight next to him. Upon witnessing this, the messenger and the Gull knights realized their lord's scheme right away. Barbarians are ruthless and would not stop until all of their prey is killed, and the Gu Clan is obviously one of their prey.

The Gu Clan would not have been able to escape if someone had not blocked the barbarians and bought them some time to escape. The young lord was knocked out by his father at the last minute.

"My Lord...?"

"I will block the barbarians. You guys seek help from the Mo Clan's hidden G.o.d. Beg him if you have to. To survive, there is no other way!" Heavenly Guardian Gu said.

The Gu Clan's servants and knights wept silently at this decision, realizing they had no choice but to protect the Young Lord because their Heavenly Guardian is prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice in order for the rest of them to live.

"Starting today, the clan leader is Gu Hen. Elders, I will leave the clan in your care. Use the hidden tunnel to leave. As for the rest, until this old man dies, no barbarians should be able to come after you!" Heavenly Guardian Gu declared.

All the surviving members of the Gu Clan kneeled before their Heavenly Guardian with silent tears strolling down their faces.

"We wish for the Heavenly Guardian's victory! May the G.o.d of War bless you!"

After hearing this, the Gu Clan's Heavenly Guardian put on his heavy armor, took out his spear, and left his mansion laughing. Clan Leader Gu knew that he was not a good father because he could not even provide his son with a bright future and that this was his last chance to improve the future of his family and clan.

Though the Gu Clan was not a great clan and was not good with any element, their physical prowess could match that of a barbarian, and they added their clan's natural skill, Berserk. The more a person fights and bleeds, the more powerful they will become.

This ability is not helpful against absolutely strong beings like Ye Jieye, the creature of that tower, or Chaos, but it is the best complement to barbarians whose strength is their physical prowess. However, in order to fully master the skill, one must never be afraid of death, as courage is the catalyst for using it.

Standing under the full moon above his head in the open s.p.a.ce of his Gu Clan, Heavenly Guardian Gu's clansmen warriors managed to kill four of the barbarians when they came onto the field, buying themselves enough time to let their loved ones escape.

"Captain. Human. Another. human. here! Head.

Kakoro. Get. Head. For. you!" The weakest barbarian among the six steps in and runs towards Heavenly Guardian Gu, who was watching the moon to attack him.

Heavenly Guardian Gu turned his head, looked at the barbarians, and smiled like a madman.

"You guys are finally here. I've been waiting for you~"

"Weak. Humans! Should. All. die!!!" The attacking barbarian didn't notice the danger from that mad gaze of Heavenly Guardian Gu.

The captain of this group of barbarians suddenly shouted. "Dodge. Kakoro!"

When Heavenly Guardian Gu was attacked by the barbarian Kakoro, he was not even aware that a spear was going through his neck. Before he could respond, Heavenly Guardian Gu had already severed the barbarian's neck and decapitated him.

Thud!

A headless barbarian fell before Heavenly Guardian Gu and even watched the detached head roll on the ground nonchalantly.

"This Heavenly Guardian isn't done talking yet! As a warrior, is this something you do?"

With these words, the barbarians became serious. Before their hatred of humans, they were a tribe of warriors; it is just that no one outside the tribe treated them like the warriors they should be; all other hunters treated them like stupid people because they could not speak in full, complex sentences like their king.

"Human. Warrior. Fight. Us. One. Vs.

One. Survive. Win. Defeat. Death. Agree?" The captain of the Barbarians asked.

His words were broken, but they can still be understood.

Heavenly Guardian Gu was stunned at first and said, "It was a lie when they said that Barbarians aren't smart. You can understand us right from the beginning. It's just that you can't speak properly."

After giving it some thought, he raised a knightly salute to the five barbarian warriors in front of him, honoring them as such since Heavenly Guardian Gu had treated them with due respect. The barbarians, of course, exchanged glances and saluted in their own unique ways.

Heavenly Guardian Gu said, "I agree to fight a warrior battle of life and death."

The Barbarian Captain spoke, "I. Last. First. Kakayo!"

Another barbarian called Kakayo stood before Heavenly Guardian Gu and saluted him like a warrior, as Heavenly Guardian Gu said.

"You guys can call me Warrior Gu!"

The barbarians nod their heads in agreement. Heavenly Guardian Kakayo spoke, "Warrior. Gu. Fight. With. All."

"Of course! I shall fight with everything!" Heavenly Guardian Gu said, holding his spear in battle mode.

The barbarians laughed heartily at his words. Had it not been for war, these barbarians would have gotten along well with Heavenly Guardian Gu. Sadly, fate turned them into enemies. Nameless and w.a.n.g Xingmo vanquished the barbarians in the central city while a warrior battle was going on in the Gu Clan's territory.

In front of the palace...

w.a.n.g Xingmo is stepping on the chest of the only alive barbarian and is looking down on it.

"Where is your king? I know your tribe can understand human words. Speak!"

The barbarian under the king's foot laughed even if he coughed blood in the process.

"Human. King. Our. Strong. King. Finding.

Strong. Humans. Not. You," the barbarian said.

w.a.n.g Xingmo was not enraged because he knew that he was not the strongest human in the capital city; the Heavenly Guardians and Satan remained, albeit Satan was not present in the city at that time; therefore, he realized that these barbarians might have moved on and joined the great clans.

"You are attacking the great clans. The Fu clan is no longer in the city. There are only Yi, Gu, Lu, and Mo. The Yi Clan is your ally, so it's only the other three. Do you want to attack Lu and Mo Clans? Heh~ aren't you guys afraid of being exterminated?

If Satan and his wife learned what you did while they were gone... the whole Barbarian tribes will be no more," w.a.n.g Xingmo said as he couldn't control himself and laughed.

The barbarian looked at w.a.n.g Xingmo as if he couldn't believe his words and looked at him with disdain.

w.a.n.g Xingmo said, "You don't believe me? Very well. Let's spare your puny life so you can watch your tribe obliterated." He hit the barbarian with his spear, forcing it to lose consciousness.

"Send this one to the underground prison. Also, send a message to the Ye Jieye to the Aurora Glaciers. This time Yi Kun made a very bad move. I don't even have to make a move on him to get him destroyed. Hahaha~" w.a.n.g Xingmo said.
