Chapter 107 - Getting Pummeled
Outside of the Hunter Association building, Branch Leader Johnson glanced at the crowded area with a frown before speaking, "Jane, contact the Hunters and have them come back."
"Is there a good reason for that, Branch Leader Johnson?" Secretary Jane queried before adding, "I am afraid they will not be happy if we delay their precious hunting time without a good cause."
"Take a look yourself. There are too many people around the big block of Phantasmium that Mr. Wudi took down. That belongs to our Hunter Association." Branch Leader Johnson spoke before narrowing his gaze, "We must not let smugglers and scalpers rob our spoils—"
Boom!
A figure suddenly shot out from the building at lightning-fast speed, ramming straight into the Behemoth-class carcass and causing mayhem among the mass.
"Watch out! It\'s falling!"
"Ahh, noo!"
People screamed and fled from the tilting carcass of the fallen Behemoth-class interdimensional creature while a select few were frozen on the spot in fear.
"Jane."
"Right on it, Branch Leader!"
Branch Leader Johnson only uttered a single word before Secretary Jane shot towards the terrified people alongside him before escorting the people away from imminent danger.
Boom!
The Behemoth-class carcass\'s upper body struck the ground and shook the earth with its terrible large build, full of Phantasmium, kicking up a storm of dust and soil.
Numerous people suffered cuts and bruises, but otherwise, safe from any grievous injuries and fatalities. Branch Leader Johnson and Secretary Jane sighed with relief as they watched the dust settled.
Shortly after, Branch Leader Johnson scrutinized the fallen-flat Behemoth-class carcass before wondering, "What just happened?"
"It was only for a moment, but I think something flew out from the Hunter Association building and struck the Phantasmium," Secretary Jane uttered.
Soon, Albion\'s figure could be seen walking out of a big crack in the Behemoth-class carcass while shaking his head slightly.
"Little Brother Albion?"
Branch Leader Johnson was startled upon seeing Albion\'s appearance before asking, "What are you doing here? Wait, no. Are you okay?"
"We\'ll talk another time." Albion gave Branch Leader Johnson a side glance before storming back into the Hunter Association building with a darkened expression.
"Oi, Polemos, you son of a b*tch! Do you have any idea who you just ki—?!"
Peng!
Albion\'s body flew back outside in a blue as Emperor Polemos muttered to himself, "Was my kick too soft just now? Who is this insolent person to dare call me by name?"
At the same time, Albion slammed back into the Behemoth-class carcass, causing its large body of Phantasmium to shift and scrape along the ground.
"Ahhh, the monster is still alive!"
"Run, everyone! This place is too dangerous!"
The crowd immediately fled in panic without confirming whether the Behemoth-class interdimensional creature was alive or not. The area was dangerous regardless.
Secretary Jane glanced at Branch Leader Johnson before asking for confirmation, "Should I still contact the Hunters to return?"
"...Yeah, just send the word. Let them know it is optional and not required." Branch Leader Johnson nodded before his lips twitched slightly at the devastation to both the Phantasmium and the area.
At least, the Hunter Association building was still standing strong due to special Phantasmium-transformed alloy reinforcements.
Shortly after, Branch Leader Johnson spotted Albion walk back out of the Behemoth-class carcass again with a darker expression before asking with doubt, "Little Brother… Are you picking a fight with Emperor Polemos? Don\'t do it, Little brother… that\'s suicide."
"Shut up for a moment."
Albion was completely annoyed as he dusted his black shirt, walking back inside the Hunter Association building for the second time with a menacing aura suffused in the air around him.
\'Dammit, I don\'t care if this person is still loyal to the Dark Emperor and can be used by me. Mother f*cker kicked me not once, but twice!\' Albion cussed in his mind.
The person ought to be taught a lesson!
Emperor Polemos immediately sensed Albion\'s menacing aura and turned back for the third time in shock, "This is impossible. How are you still aliv—"
Peng!
This time, it was Emperor Polemos\'s turn to go flying from Albion\'s kicked as his body slammed into the opposite wall and shook the entire building!
Rumble!
"Impossible? This is Spart—Ahem, never mind." Albion coughed before he spat with a solemn tone, "You forgot who I am."
He walked over with a dark look before picking up the shocked Polemos by the leg, slamming the person on the ground left and right, shattering the floor with larges cracks and fragments that rumbled like the powerful beats of a bass.
Shortly after, Albion tossed Polemos in the air before the ground cracked under his feet as he leaped and uppercut Polemos through the ceiling, breaking into the second floor before slamming the person back down to the first floor.
Cao Wudi stood on the spot, too petrified to move a muscle as he watched the two titans-likes figure with unbreakable bodies demolish the lobby with their bare bodies.
\'Such monstrosity! How can anyone have such terrifying brute strength?!\' Cao Wudi\'s eyes suddenly flickered as he was strangely reminded of his master, Old Demon.
Meanwhile, Albion continued to pummel Polemos\'s body like a punching bag with earth-shaking force, devastating the first two floors of the Hunter Association before falling back to the first floor, unscathed without a single injury.
Polemos\'s body was comparable to the strongest tempered metal on Earth, with remarkable resilience against blunt force. He could not be harmed unless Albion truly wanted to beat him to a pulp.
On the other hand, Albion\'s body was even impressive. In fact, the difference between their sturdy bodies was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Having received 43 folds increase in his base attributes from his significant power-up, his True Immortal Body was comparable to an immortal-grade defensive treasure in and of itself.
Grade 7 materials like Bluefire Crystals were no longer able to pierce his flesh, even with the absence of Divine Energy.
After stepping Polemos\'s chest with a stern look, Albion said, "I thought you were the smartest amongst the four generals, so why did you suddenly go stupid, hmm?"
"M-My Lord, I have failed to recognize your greatness in this subordinate\'s haste to meet you again!"
Emperor Polemos was beaten into awareness, and dazed for a long time before his facial expression turned aghast from the realization of having kicked his lord twice.
After being released from Albion\'s foot, Polemos quickly kowtowed and said with regret, "This subordinate has made a grave mistake and deserves death for his transgression against you, my Lord! Please punish this subordinate!"
"Do you think you are useful to me when you are dead? If I kill you, how will I use you?" Albion rolled his eyes in response, stunning Polemos.
"This… what should this subordinate do to atone for his crimes?"
"Hmm… I\'ll forget what happened if you strip naked and run two laps around the inner city," Albion suggested after a moment of thought, thinking it was a great way to test the extent of Polemos\'s loyalty.
But after seeing the emperor decisively started stripping, Albion realized how bad of an idea it actually was.
"Stop! That\'s enough. You have proven yourself loyal enough." Albion quickly barked before rubbing his forehead with a frown, "Besides, a lot of people will be scarred if they see a grown man like you run around naked. It\'s not good for children\'s eyes either."
"Yes, my Lord!" Polemos heaved a sigh of relief.
