2 MINUTES LATER.
If you were suddenly plunged into a fight without any good feelings, what would you do?
Would you fight with all your valor, or would you cringe back and hide for your life?
For Marcus, his choice was definitely the first one.
7 silvery, lighting-tinged serpent leapt out from the tip of Marcus' battlestaff, which shot straight towards Travelers who rushed at him.
"Hiss…" With their bodies imbued with the quickness of lightning, the serpents were able to reach the 5 incoming Travelers before they could even react.
"Ahh!!" Hisses of pain could be heard by Marcus as the lightning serpents sizzled the incoming Travelers with their lightning-filled bodies. None were spared, as their defenses were not enough to stop the lightning from exploding inside them.
"5 down, a lot more to go…" Marcus only spared these incapacitated Travelers a glance as he resumed spamming out attacks again, this time to another group of Travelers who approached him from behind.
Marcus slammed his battlestaff behind him, which then caused the ground 15 meters all around him to shake with unceasing intensity. Cracks began to appear on the ground as every person above the affected area experienced dull, penetrating pain inside their bones and bodies.
"Ahh!!!" The Travelers who wanted to attack Marcus from behind were caught by these shakings, rendering them helpless as none of their prepared countermeasures were able to stop Marcus' attack.
"Thud." So just like the Travelers that were defeated by the lightning serpents, these come-from-behind Travelers fell down incapacitated too.
"…."
For a normal person, the sight of countless Travelers unconscious in front of him will surely be a good scenery, enough to make him happy.
But for Marcus, the piles of unconscious Travelers around him did not make him happy.
Instead, it filled him with more worry.
"It's been already 2 minutes since we started to fight the Travelers here, but even with all the Travelers that we defeated, there is still a lot of them standing? Argh, this is making me nervous!" Marcus thought to himself sullenly as he tilted his head, which allowed him to dodge the flying spear that was aimed at his neck a second earlier.
As this spear flew behind him, Marcus flicked his battlestaff like a ballerina, an action that conjured a large stream of water that is shaped like a dragon. Once it has appeared, the water dragon bit the spear like it was a candy, before throwing it back directly at the direction that it came from.
"Ah!" The spear hit back its user with twice the force that it was used, which resulted on audible shout of pain 500 meters away.
"Tsk! I already have taken down 512 Second Stage Travelers with 653 Second Stage Companions, 65 Third Stage Travelers with 12 Third Stage Companions, and 2 Fourth Stage Travelers, but the whole area still looks like they are full of enemies!" As if he had not noticed the absurdity of his takedowns, Marcus continued to chide himself with worry. "If we go on doing this, is there a chance that we can still win?"
As if he had eyes at the back of his head, Marcus continued to attack even while his mind was worried.
This time, he summoned a large, flaming demon-like creature from within his battlestaff, which proceeded to trash the 4 Travelers and their 5 Companions behind him. This demon only existed for 5 seconds, but that time was enough for it to defeat its targets.
"Sigh, things could have gone worse for us if we were still feeling sick. It's a good thing… that one of the Travelers in our group healed all of us." Marcus swiveled his head upon saying this, with his eyes looking directly at a green-clad female Traveler.
This Traveler was busy fighting at this point too, although the sickly complexion on her face made it look like she was about to pass out. Something seemed to have been forcing her to stay upright, as she continued to attack with increasing ferocity towards the enemies.
Seeing this only made Marcus shiver, as the current appearance of this female Traveler was a direct contrast to her meek attitude earlier.
"How the hell did this female Traveler heal all of our nausea earlier? It looks like she used some ability… to absorb all of our sickness. Is she alright from doing that?" Marcus added to his mind as he observed the way that the female Traveler moved. "If she's really absorbing our sickness, where does she bring it? Does she have to experience all those sickness, or is there a way that she stores it?"
"…Ah, thinking more about her won't help me more. I just have to be thankful that she healed me. For now, I just have to focus on fighting!" Realizing that now is not the time for idle thoughts, Marcus silently slapped himself as he forced himself to focus.
This action allowed him to dispel his worries, which made him feel a lot better compared to earlier.
"…"
With his mind now free from worries, Marcus was finally able to see a positive situation on the current battle.
"Hmm… why am I even worrying for my comrades? From what I can see in the last 2 minutes, none of the Travelers in our group had been defeated yet. Only those from the enemy side has been defeated, and their number keeps on falling down as time passed by!" Marcus smiled widely upon realizing this, with the frown on his face now completely gone.
Unlike what he was thinking earlier, the situation the battlefield was much more positive. He and his allies were clearly wining, and it was by a margin that is hard for their enemies to overcome at this point.
"Hah, why did I even act like we were about to lose? None of my allies have been defeated yet, and it was the only enemy Travelers that fall down like weeded weeds! This situation is a great win for us, so I should be really pleased! Hahaha, yes, I am really pleased!"
And with this happy discovery, Marcus' spirits were fired up, which then bolstered his next attacks.
Attacks comprised of different elemental attributes continued to shoot out of Marcus' battlestaff, giving him great variety of attacks against his opponents.
No matter what kind of power they use, Marcus had an answer for this, making him almost undefeatable right now.
But even when he was already dominating the place with his power, Marcus' mind still could not help be distracted, as another topic appeared in his mind.
This time however, the topic that he was thinking about was actually important.
"Hmm… now that I noticed it, our group should have lost this battle. I mean, we have fewer numbers, and the enemies have more Fourth Stage Travelers compared to us. With this kind of discrepancy, our group should have been defeated already." Marcus thought with scrutiny as he stared at the ongoing battle around him.
He frowned as he saw his allies easily defeating the enemies, as if they were just mobs meant to be beaten up. These enemies, even with their numerical superiority, still fall down like weeds against Marcus' allies.
None of their defenses seem to work against Marcus and his allies' attacks, rendering the fight to be extremely one-sided.
As for the frightening Fourth Stage Travelers are still in the field, some of them also fall down defeated, as they were being ganged up by Marcus' allies.
"…."
This scenery was enough to make Marcus confused, as he was just not sure if what he was seeing was right.
He was definitely happy that they were winning, but he could not help but wonder on how the hell they are able to win.
Did their enemies suffer a misfortune that weakened them, or was Marcus and his allies just too powerful?
Marcus can still believe if it was the former, as he finds it hard to believe that he and his allies have become extremely powerful now!
"All that I and my allies have done for the past 2 months is practice the Hell Body Diagram. We had no time to refine our powers, as Professor Frances forces us to do her training technique every single day. With that kind of training, our improvements should have been minimal, right?" Marcus thought as he stared down as his skin, which had already turned light brown from his intense training.
"Sure, the Hell Body Diagram could have strengthened our bodies, but this kind of strengthening should not be dramatic enough to make me and my allies this strong…"
"Or maybe is it?"
"Tsk, my mind wandered again. I think I will just ask about these strange events to Professor Frances once we're done fighting. For now, I really have to fight again…"
With another note posted in his mind, Marcus let out a sigh as he forced himself into the battlefield once more.
This time, he did not let any distractions falter him again.
**********
2 MINUTES LATER.
With the seemingly 'superior' bodies and advanced abilities, Marcus and his allies were able to do the impossible.
Their thousand-strong, and intimidating enemies have been defeated by their own hands, and it only took them exactly 4 minutes to achieve it! Such kind of victory is hard to witness these days, especially with the great disparity in numbers.
And to make matters even more intriguing, the amount of people that had been defeated among Marcus' allies were only few. In fact, they can even be counted with one's hand.
This kind of victory is enough to confound anyone, especially the ones who had won this fight
"Did we… really do this?" Traveler Audrey, whose whole robes was stained with the blood of the enemies that she skewered with her rapier, asked the question that plagued the mind of everyone present. "I-I am not really doubting our ability to win, but I think what we did here was a bit of overkill…"
"It really is overkill. There's no need for you to sugarcoat it." Marcus said with a sigh as he rubbed the back of his head. His face still wore the expression of confusion that he had earlier, and it just intensified upon seeing the bodies of their defeated opponents. "Oh, and if you're asking me on how we managed to win, even I don't know the answer to that."
"Well, I think we should just worry about our victory later. For now, let's try looking for more Travelers living in the Celestial Carp Continent." Audrey muttered sullenly upon hearing Marcus' answer. "You never know, someone powerful from them could be hiding somewhere in this continent…"
"You're right, Audrey. We might have won here, but our fight is still not yet done. We need to defeat all the enemy Travelers here, or else we-"
[CONGRATULATIONS FOR TRAVELER ALEX AND HIS GROUP, THEY ACHIEVED FIRST BLOOD IN THE TRAVELER'S WORLD, AND THEY ARE IN THE MOMENTUM TO GAIN MORE WINS.]
"What?" Whatever Marcus was trying to say was cut-off as an emotionless voice suddenly gave this loud announcement. This announcement was so loud that in fact, everyone in the Traveler's World were able to hear it.
[THROUGH THE OPPORTUNITY GIVEN BY FATE, THE MEMBERS OF WERE ABLE TO DEFEAT ALL THE TRAVELERS RESIDING INSIDE THE CELESTIAL CARP CONTINENT. THE TOTAL NUMBER OF THE DEFEATED TRAVELERS SHALL NOT BE MENTIONED HERE, AS SAYING IT WILL JUST SERVE TO EMBARRASS THE CELESITAL CARP CONTINENT MORE.]
"…." The voice certainly had some sense of humor in it, which was enough to elicit some chuckles among Marcus' allies. Marcus however was not laughing at all, as he only frowned from the words uttered in the announcement.
[WITH THE IMMORTAL EMPRESS OUT OF COMMISSION, AND THE DEFEAT OF ALL THE TRAVELERS IN THE CELESTIAL CARP CONTINENT, THE CONTROL ROOM FOR THIS CONTINENT WAS OPENED 5 SECONDS AGO. IT WAS QUICKLY OCCCUPIED BY TRAVELER ALEX.]
"!!!"
[THIS MOVE HAS NOW CHANGED THE LEADERSHIP IN THE CELESTIAL CARP CONTINENT. NOW, IT IS TRAVELER ALEX WHO IS CONTROLLING THE CELESITAL CARP CONTINENT, AND NOT THE IMMORTAL EMPRESS. THIS CHANGE IS A GOOD THING THAT HAPPENED IN THE TRAVELER'S WORLD, AND WE HOPE TO SEE MORE OF IT.]
