<h4>Chapter 1399 Raid</h4>
Grey had spent two more days with the Phoenix Faction Leader, speaking nonstop on the array formation. In the end, they were only able to uncover a few more things about it. As they unraveled things about the early stages of the array, it started to get even moreplex the deeper they went.
Grey got to understand why the Faction Leader and the Elders of the Phoenix Faction hadn''t been able to understand the array even after so long. This was an extremelyplex array that required a long period to understand. With what Grey understood, there was no way he would be able to set up the formation. Even making an easy form of it was impossible, there was no easy form of this particr array, you either get it or you don''t.
us was getting bored waiting for Grey so he went to the City close by with the others to have fun.
There was nothing special about the city. Other than the Faction that was close by, there was nothing else to do around.
….
In the Phoenix Faction.
Aries looked at the bored us and asked, "Do you want to follow us for a raid?"
us'' ears perked up when he heard this, and he nodded, a look of curiosity appeared on his face, "You guys go for raids?"
Aries chuckled when she heard this and replied, "asionally. Mostly when we''re bored. There''s a group of bandits that usually nest close to a volcano."
"The volcano is in the woods and close to a path in the forest. They woulde up and you know, rob."
"We''ve been getting reports of kidnaps going on theretely, so we want to go check it out. I''ve been dying it, but since you guys are here, and Grey''s working with my Teacher, I don''t mind taking you guys there."
us turned to Alice and Reynolds who both nodded. They were also in support of heading out for the raid.
Aries took that as the go ahead and took them out of the Faction once again, heading towards the woods.
They disguised themselves so as not to give away their identity and make the banditse out. us was dressed elegantly while the others were dressed as his guards and servants.
us yed his part to the peak as he would asionally cuss at Reynolds. Reynolds didn''t have the chance to speak back since he was technically a guard. Although he couldn''t speak back, it didn''t mean he can''t get back at us while doing his duty as a guard.
He would asionally swing the spear in his hand which would then go on to hit us'' head.
"Fuck! If not for my father I would''ve killed such a stupid pig!" us fumed when Reynolds did it again. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Reynolds dropped his head as us continued cussing at him. us was about to hit him when a group stepped out of the bushes.
"My Lord, you shouldn''t be yelling this much. Don''t you know you might attract bandits?" One of the people who just came out from the bush said with a sarcastic smile.
"Who are you to tell me what to do? Get the hell out of my sight, clowns!" us turned to the person that spoke and yelled at him.
He looked at the others and seeing how they were dressed, he asked, "Are you guys going for a show? I''ll pay good money to watch you guys fool yourselves."
The mouth of the man who spoke twitched when he heard us'' words. They were clearly dressed like bandits, yet us was saying they were clowns. It was clear he didn''t take into ount what they could do to them.
In the group of bandits, three of them were at the Peak of the Elemental Venerable ne, while five were in the Ninth and Eighth stage.
Aries didn''t bring anyone else with them so they were clearly outnumbered. Of course, these people at the Peak couldn''t be measured with us, Reynolds, and Aries'' level, but they were still at the Peak, nheless.
With eight members in the Late stages of the Elemental Venerable ne, this could be said to be a deadly force in the woods. There were still around ten that were in the Early and Mid stages of the Elemental Venerable ne.
"Kid, I don''t think you know what''s good for you, if not, you would''ve shut your mouth." One of the bandits at the Peak said.
"Shut up! What do you know, swine!" us cussed and even picked up a small rock and tossed it at the man.
The rock hit the man''s head, but it wasn''t painful. Although other Elementalists are not like Grey who has trained his physical body so high, they were still Elementalists and their bodies benefit from housing elemental essences. The essences strengthen their bodies and they be stronger. A stone from us wouldn''t be able to hurt a Peak Elemental Venerables, unless the throw was enforced with the elements.
The man looked at us, his eyes twitching from anger.
"What Family are you from? They better be rich, if not, I''ll personally make sure you beg for death." The man said.
us looked at him and smirked, "What does my Family being rich have to do with you? So what if they''re not rich, what will you do?"
"I''ll... Why am I exining to you?" The man wanted to tell us what he would do to him, but then he realized something and felt angered, he looked at those in the Early and Mid stages, "Seize them. Keep most of them alive. The more we have, the better we can benefit from this."
us was already waiting for them toe close. He wanted to make sure they took out as many as they could from the first attack. This will tilt the battle over to their side.
With the numbers on the side of the bandits, they had the advantage. But if they could take out a few of the top powerhouses, or take out most of the weaker Elementalists, they will be able to shorten the gap.
The Early and Mid stage bandits rushed over to where us and the others were standing, all with grins on their faces. Some of the men had their eyes on Alice and Aries. They were both beautiful, so it was normal for these people to have their eyes on them.
Alice and Aries felt disgusted with the way the men were staring at them. Before us and Reynolds could even react, the duo had killed three of the men that went close to them.
us spread out his domain and froze those who were close to him. Reynolds sent lightning bolts at the few who were close to him.
In the space of a second, ten Early and Mid stage bandits were incapacitated by the group of four. One has to know that even though the group of ten weren''t making any attempts to defend, it was still a shocking feat to achieve. The fact that they were taken care of within such a short time was baffling.
The trio at the Peak of the Venerable ne were stunned. They couldn''tprehend what just happened. Their underlings were killed before them and they couldn''t even make any moves.
"You filthy clowns tried to touch me, you have another thinging." us pushed the head of one of the bandits he froze and the bandit fell to the ground, shattering after making contact with the ground.
"What are you looking at? Do you want to experience the same thing?" us looked at the trio at the Peak in a threatening manner.
When they disguised themselves, they originally hid their true cultivation stage, but now, there was no need to hide it.
The trio at the Peak realized they had been tricked by this group of four, but they quickly rxed their minds when they sensed the cultivation stage of the group. Even though there were two at the Peak, the other two only had the strength of an Eighth stage Elemental Venerable. They might be stronger than the regr Eighth stage and Peak Venerables, but they were still outnumbered.
Two Peak Venerables will be able to kill one of the duo at the Peak, and then two Ninth stage Venerables will team up with the other Peak Venerable at the side of the bandits and fight against the second Peak Venerable on us'' side.
This was the n that came to them when they saw the strength of the four of them.
"What''s the point of showing your strength? You''ll still get kidnapped by us, and we will make sure to make you suffer for killing our brothers." One of the Peak Venerable bandits said coldly.
"Do you think you can beat us?" us asked mockingly, a grin on his face.
The man looked at him and turned to the other man at the Peak, "We''ll take this brat."
