Speed Is King

Chapter 183 One Million Runes

“You’ve been gone from his life for far too long to be able to determine accurately what he would or wouldn’t do, Princess.” Fat Wall said sarcastically. “Look, Fifth brother and Sixth brother will kill the three of them very soon, and it would completely be because Second brother told us “kill all who bear witness to your actions.”

BOOM!! A massive eruption of energy shot out towards them as a golden pillar of energy clashed powerfully against a red dragon.

Autumn stared at the clash of energies in amazement for a moment. Both the human boy’s attack and her Fifth brother’s attack was far stronger than she had thought possible.

“Did Second brother begin to change after he started practicing the manual he got from the Ancient Inheritence?” Autumn asked Fat Wall softly.

“Does it matter? All that matters is that Second brother is now extremely powerful! I am not afraid to tell you that.. He has graduated from the Emperor level!” Fat Wall said proudly.

“What? That’s impossible! The chasm between Emperor and Hegemon is extremely wide! He would need to master two different forms of Elements to the highest level and fuse them together!” Autumn cried out in shock. “And isn’t Second brother’s body the Pure Light Heavenly Body? How could he master a different form of Element so easily?”

“Hehehe. Of course it was because of that powerful sword and manual! That manual is a wonder. It somehow allowed Second brother to master the Dark Element so quickly! In fact, Second brother even allowed us three brothers to practice the initial stages of the manual. We are now powerful users of the Dark Element in addition to our base Elements! In fact, I am even a Quadruple Element user because I originally was training in THREE different elements! HAHA!” Fat Wall couldn’t help himself but boast proudly to Autumn.

“Not good. Definitely not good. How on earth did you guys manage to escape Master’s detection?” Autumn asked with a trace of panic in her voice.

“Ha! Master has been in his closed cultivation session for so long that he probably don’t know many things that is happening in the mountain! Things like Second brother’s expansion of power and influence..” Fat Wall sneered at Autumn.

“Expansion of power and influence? How could he do that? Eldest Senior Brother would never allow him to do such a thing!” Autumn said in disbelief.

“Eldest Senior Brother has been really quiet for the past few months. You may not know it because you’re always out exploring the universe all by yourself, but as of last week, we have more than ten brothers and sisters openly declaring their allegiance to Second brother! Including use three brothers, we have fifteen in Second brother’s faction already. That leaves only five disciples unaccounted for. Eldest senior brother, his three faithful cronies and you! Hahaha!” Fat Wall laughed in satisfaction.

“I see. The mountain is in far worse shape than I envisioned it to be. Second brother is so strong now..” Autumn said with a slightly quivering voice which contained a very slight trace of killing intent.

If Fat Wall wasn’t feeling so satisfied and so full of himself, he would have definitely noticed it, and realized that Autumn was simply acting and leading him by the nose like a naive lamb to the slaughter!

But alas for him, he merely laughed and continued to spill much needed information regarding the situation back home for Autumn.

“Strong is an understatement! Second brother’s grip over the mountain is as complete as the air that permeates all of the planet itself! Nothing moves without him knowing, and nothing is uttered without him hearing. The Fortune Hermit Mountain is as good as his! Hahahaha!” Fat Wall laughed happily.

“Planning? HA! I guess it’s safe to tell you everything now, considering that you can’t do anything. Let me tell you a highly confidential secret. It’s no longer in planning mode! Second brother is probably moving against Eldest senior brother at this moment! He and his three cronies have been holed up in his damned cave for many weeks now. He’s probably afraid of Second brother’s growing power! But now that he has given Second brother the time he needed to consolidate his strength at the Hegemon level, Eldest Senior Brother is doomed!!

Why do you think we dare to kidnap you this way? It is because the taking over of Fortune Hermit mountain is already underway! HAHAHA! Twelfth Junior Sister, when you return home to Fortune Mountain, you will return to Second brother as the leader of the mountain!” Fat Wall declared with utmost confidence.

“I see. In that case, then I have no need to remain polite with you.” Autumn said in a calm voice that was vastly different from the emotional one she used earlier. The change was so huge and so sudden that Fat Wall immediately took notice.

“Huh?” Fat Wall managed to say before a blinding surge of light shot out from Autumn Rosenbloom.

BOOM!!

Autumn’s powerful Emperor level energy rolled off her lithe body in horrifying waves and rippled Fat Wall’s energy cocoon around her into shreds. historical

“You’re an Emperor too?” Fat Wall shouted in complete shock.

“I am not just a fake Emperor like you who got boosted by some evil manual. I am a true Emperor with a perfect breakthrough!” Autumn sneered at Fat Wall and unleashed a powerful energy that surrounded Fat Wall like a cocoon, doing unto him exactly what he did to her earlier.

“Perfect breakthrough? With your Celestial Chaos Body? Doesn’t that mean..”

“One million runes.” Autumn Rosenbloom said softly as her energy continued to rise higher and higher.

It rose so high that the five who were fighting a few kilometers away from her immediately stopped and looked over at her direction.

“One-one million runes?!?!” Fat Wall gasped as he tried to break Autumn’s cocoon apart with his own Emperor level strength. “Impossible.. But this power..”

Fat Wall suddenly stopped struggling and sighed.
