Chapter 123: Exterminator Part 2

The Voltac, that had transformed into what seemed to be a hybrid boar, was flung into the group of his subordinates and with such force and speed, it was too late for the subordinates who had their leader thrown at them, and were all knocked down like pins in a bowling alley.

Lex with a few seconds unoccupied conjured to pills out of thin air and handed them to Angela.

"These pills will help you recover" stated Lex.

'Those are Sky Mortal grade pills that are almost impossible to come by on this so-called continent and he gave you two of them without hesitation. This not only shows his generousness but also his wealth' observed the Jade Empress and Ella who were continuously given pleasant surprises by the ever-growing Lex.

Without time to relax and chat, and not fazed by handing Angela the pills who died for him in his past reality, Lex dashed towards the Voltacs who were regaining composure, as experienced veterans, and charged towards him.

With a burst of power, Lex clashed with the group all at once using his sheer will, strength, and momentum to push them all back as he slashed forth.

The slash of his claws left deep gushes in the bodies of multiple Voltacs who despite their wounds continued with their onwards assault trying to get past Lex and to the weakened females behind him who they were initially after.

Lex battling against the Voltacs was also blocking them off from Angela and Ella and was covering the gap of 20 metres between the buildings either side as they continuously charged towards him.

Continuously clashing with the boar man and the rest of the Voltacs interchangeably, Lex was managing to face against all of them, however, could feel the fatigue beginning to seep through into his body as his energy storages were beginning to dwindle.

With his inextinguishable drive to battle and protect, Lex continued to battle against them with his arctic claws as his armadillo armour began to crack and cave-in, in certain areas under the continuous attacks.

Retracting his organic armour Beast Power that was on the verge of shattered as Lex suffered wounds from the attacks of his multiple opponents, he had to give the Beast Power time to recover as he continued to battle with only Kano protecting his body.

His Arctic Claws that also weren't invincible were beginning to dent slightly under the impact of constant clashes of blades.

The damage to his Arctic Claws was very painful to Lex who formed the Beast Power through inhumanely extending and sharpening his bones, which the Beast Power allowed him to do, as he also retracted his claws, leaving blood dripping from his hands.

The Voltacs left surviving that were numbered slightly above ten with the boar man also still alive, but suffering from claws wounds and fatigue, thought that it was over as it seemed as Lex had given up after retracting his claws and his armour.

Angela was also thinking the same thing and paused from absorbing the energy and vitality from the pills and turned to Ella, knowing that she was very mysterious and powerful, to help Lex.

But she merely shook her head and gave her a reassuring smile as Lex also had a smile. 

Unlike Ella's smile, Lex's smile was filled with killing and battle intent as his adrenaline rush and battle frenzy nature began to reawaken, after having an intense battle with another person for the first time in the past half a year that Lex had been away.

"Time to get serious" stated Lex as he simply summoned a single long katana blade that appeared within his hands.

Lex entered a state where he became one with his blade that was the ultimate state to be in while wielding a weapon as he saw the katana as merely an extension of his body.

After mastering all the weapons through what his master had left behind, Lex knew that is was merely the application of the weapon and he had only just begun to reach the threshold of true mastery of the weapons.

What his master had stated at the end of her weapon inheritance was what made Lex realise just how profound true mastery of weapons is.

After hundreds of years of training and experience, his master had only just begun to tap into the idea of becoming one with your weapon and truly understand and master its use and the control over it.

However she had never managed to surpass that level and after the fatal injuries she suffered after her final battle with Mason, she couldn't continue her contemplation of the idea and left behind the mystery to Lex to uncover.

He had also reached the similar level that she had reached throughout her lifetime in only half a year and if she knew this, she would begin to turn in her grave in frustration but would also be happy with her disciple and torch-carrier that had equalled her prowess in weapons and surpassed her power in terms of cultivation or levelling in her case.

The katana which Lex felt was the most efficient weapon in battles against groups, along with the spear and the halberd, was the reason for his choice of weapon as he was not as swift with the use of the spear and halberd in comparison to the katana.

With a single swift flash of his blade, the heads of three of the Sky Mortal Voltacs were sliced off as they rolled on the ground.

The single slash had drained Lex massively, not only physically but also mentally because of the extreme focus it required for such precision to be possible.

But it left a loud statement to everybody that saw it and despite his fatigue, Lex swiftly flashed towards them making quick and swift movements.

His mind was still, as his focus was his blade, that slashed out, again and again, each time drawing blood and dealing fatal wounds to his opponents as he cut off the arm of a Voltac with ease.

With his forwards momentum, Lex continued his onwards stride as he continuously slashed the Voltacs.

All meanwhile avoiding the boar man who was a threat to him and couldn't be dealt with as easily as the others, and within minutes Lex had exterminated all the Voltacs apart from the Heaven Mortal boar man.

Both were fatigued and strained, but it was evident to both of them that Lex would be the obvious victor in battle and knowing this the boar man, in the final moments that he had left in the transformation form, wildly rushed away from Lex.

"I thought I would have a harder battle than that" mumbled Lex regretfully as he returned his priced katana and formed a bow within his hand through the Item Creation Skill.

Lex with the final power left within his legs and the small amount of energy he had, jumped into the air to get a clearer sight on the Voltac attempting to escape.

Forming an arrow and drawing back the bowstring to its limit Lex closed an eye as he aimed at the boar man while calculating the trajectory of the arrow and the target and released the bowstring.

The arrow with extreme speed flew through the air as it whistled past and pierced straight into the head of the Voltac who stumbled face-first onto the ground from the impact.

Falling into the abyss of death, the Voltac had no chance of living with the extreme loss of blood he was experiencing and the wound to the head that pierced into his brain, but still continued to attempt to crawl away as he died slowly.

The Voltac was only barely managing to cling onto his life and consciousness with his strong will and vitality he had acquired as an experienced Earth Mortal, however, his death was inevitable.

Meanwhile, Lex who had launched himself into the air had no energy or strength left in his body.

Unconsciously and uncontrollably, Lex's body relaxed after his battle was completed and fell crashing down onto the ground.

However just as he was about to hit the ground with his accumulated force from falling from a hundred metres in the air, he seemed to suddenly be halted in space and caught in the arms of somebody.

Lex knew the fall wouldn't be able to kill him and wasn't worried about the fall that he would be able to recover from quite easily with the assistance of pills, but was baffled when he didn't feel any pain and when he opened his eyes, saw Ella's face that was carrying him.

"Let me go" he screamed in shame and embarrassment.

Not only was he shamefully saved by Ella but he was also so close to her and couldn't help but become slightly flustered before such a beauty.

"As you please" she agreed as she dropped him onto the ground.

Lex calming down turned over and sat down as he withdrew two pills, identical to the ones he gave Angela, and swallowed the Sky Mortal Energy Recovery Pill and Sky Mortal Recovery pill that would help him recover both externally and internally.

With the rush of energy and vitality, Lex felt the satisfying and exhilarating feeling of energy slithering like a snake around his body and nourishing it.

"After I recover I will return to exterminate the rest of the Voltacs and reduce the casualties of innocents as much as possible" stated Lex to Angela and Ella who in such a serious situation didn't have time to relax and nodded in agreement with the same plan.
