BXBX NOVEL Chapter 177 Heroing
It had been about 20 minutes since Seth decided to change the people's perspective on who to fear more and from the look of his things his plans had worked out just well, not like he doubted it would.
Back then his action had caused a wave of fear, especially the release of his aura which had most people falling to their knees.
When Seth took back his aura and continued his trek, many people began running away, but the translator whom he had picked up went about shouting some words and managed to keep the crowd under control, maintaining a moderate size.
At this time, Seth was between enemy soldiers, a swing of both red and back to the left and right respectively finishing off the last of the 20 soldiers he had encountered.
Looking forward, Seth could see a few soldiers who had hidden nearby run away, probably rushing to report what had just happened to their superiors.
Whether he killed them off or not, Seth was more than sure that a report on his activities would somehow reach those superiors, and the next people he would face won't be general level cultivators anymore.
Seth wouldn't be surprised if a 3rd stage Kaiser popped up the next minute and attacked him, and in order to prepare for that eventuality, Seth turned to the rowdy crowd behind him.
"Idiots" was the one word Seth had for almost all of them.
He could see looks of admiration from most of the about three hundred and something people behind him, and Seth couldn't help but lament how stupid fear could make people.
Sure he kept everyone safe, but anyone with an actively working brain would know that a time would come when the soldiers in mass themselves would go after the people and Seth wouldn't be able to protect them.
There was also the possibility that Seth would engage in battle with a powerful opponent so strong that he wouldn't be able to control the opponent or control where the opponent's missed attacks went.
Seth was more than sure that there were still more people hidden away, and these people had decided to stay hidden because they had taken this fact into consideration.
"Let's move," Seth said to the translator from atop a pile of rubble which was decorated with a few dead bodies.
The man hearing seethes words, immediately relayed his words to the crowd behind him, and the crowd full of hopes and jubilation began making their way forward, but the explosion of 7 people at the front reminded the newcomers that there were rules to follow.
Having just fired his finger beam, Seth took down his right hand and began marching forward, ignoring the scream and moans that sounded out from behind him, probably coming from the relatives or friends of the people he had just killed.
With a less rowdy crowd behind him, Seth made his way forward, leading the crowd on a march that lasted for surprisingly 10 minutes before he was once more forced to stop.
But this time, things were different as a powerful aura washed over the crowd, turning everyone silent as they were paralyzed with fear, but before the perpetrator could do any more damage, Seth decided to be cautious and intervene.
One moment, the crowd found themselves suddenly embraced by fear, they felt like they were staring at death but before they could succumb to their fears and run away, they felt themselves embraced by a warm soothing feeling, this feeling appearing before them in the form of a blue fire.
Back when Seth had Raijin, his qi reserves had been pitiful, and unfortunately for him by the time he had broken through and drastically raised his qi quantity, he had lost Raijin.
Standing here right now, his dantian smoothly spinning and pouring a steady stream of qi through his qi pathways and into the necklace in his right hand, Seth was brought to a new level of high.
Seth's mind and body were given a taste of a whole new level of power, one which could only be brought out by the potent qi which rested within him.
The blue flames burned bright than ever, blazing all around him and then extending backward and enveloping everyone who was behind him.
The flames, instead of burning and inflicting pain on the crowd, instead brought about smiles and a feeling of peace, the atmosphere behind Seth turning so cheerful that one would find it hard to believe that they were actually in enemy territory.
If one were to stay in the sky and observe what was happening below, they would see a crowd of people actually on fire, yet with none of them fleeing or being burnt.
Seth could hear the silent cry and pleas from the necklace, the presence within it pleading within him.
Seth extracted himself from his feeling of bliss, turned to his translator, and said,
"Tell everyone to stay together and within the blue barrier as we move, and also tell them that anyone that tries to leave without my permission will get burned and the same will happen to anyone who tries to get in".
"Yes Sir" the man and rushed to the back to spread Seth's message and probably add his own thoughts seeing as Seth could hear him speaking far more words than should be necessary to say his message.
With his warnings spread to the people behind him, all it took was a thought on Seth's part for the flames which had encapsulated everyone to move away from them and then turn into a blue dome that covered the entire crowd from top to bottom.
"Tell them to continuously move forward," Seth said as he immediately began walking forward, the translator hurriedly relaying his words as a crowd of over 300 people began marching forwards, while Seth moved to the side to challenge the quickly arriving enemies.
"Two 1st stage Kaisers and a 2nd stage Kaiser, another walkover," Seth thought.
