Of course all this equipment was the courtesy of the Nebula System.
Zach zoomed in on the scene to witness the way these people fought each other.
The horned girl was by no means a damsel in distress. She was somehow controlling a huge amount of fire as it spun around her like a fiery tornado. Embers of fire shot out and struck her assailants from time to time but they were prepared as well.
The assailants had some means to keep the fire at bay as they raised their hands and redirected the flames behind them.
No matter how powerful the horned woman might have been, it appeared that she was no match for the group surrounding her.
Zach could already see the outcome of this skirmish but he wasn't ready to take action yet. He needed to study the enemies more. He had to understand the way they fought and whether his weapons would be effective against them since they were even able to defend against fire.
The girl gritted her teeth and growled at the men in frustration and anger but they didn't take it seriously and only laughed it off as if they had long been tired of such a routine for a long time.
The leader of the men, who looked to be the most guttural out of the lot, had a scraggly beard that looked disheveled and dirty. But just his tall and burly frame was enough to deter any monster.
Zach's intuition was screaming that the leader was dangerous.
"That giant looks dangerous. I need to do something before he takes action."
Just as Zach was about to move, the leader that had been right in front of him, vanished into thin air as if he had never been there in the first place.
"Where the hell did he go? Is this some kind of teleportation ability? It could be enhanced agility as well. Let's wait a bit more." Zach had already witnessed that common sense was no longer applicable in this world. He had to think out of the box.
He calmed himself down and pondered on the various possible permutations for such an action on the part of the enemy leader.
And that was when everything clicked into place. He activated the analysis lens' built-in infra red vision and took a look at the scene.
As he had expected, the invisible figure of the vanished giant was rushing towards the woman with a brisk pace from the exact position that he had vanished before.
The woman on the other hand, unaware of her impending doom, was still focused on the little goons following after their boss.
Zach felt that either the woman was too tired to notice what was happening or she was just that dumb. Either way, he couldn't stay hidden much longer.
Before Zach could make a move, the enemy leader had already made contact with the fragile looking woman. He bashed his shoulder into the woman with quite a momentum causing her to fall on her bottom.
The woman looked quite surprised since she had been unable to understand what had hit her. The foolish woman had yet to notice that the enemy leader had been missing until then.
The fire that she had been maintaining around herself had extinguished since she had lost concentration. She tried to cast the fire shield once again but only a few embers ignited before even they were snuffed out.
The woman was in fact too tired to cast a single spell. She had been fighting on her own against the whole gang of unruly bastards by herself for a considerable amount of time. She could barely lift a finger to defend herself let alone using her fire element that was quite draining on her.
Zach could see a mass of red moving towards the fallen woman. The mass of red was obviously the enemy leader who was closing in to finish the job.
There was nothing that Zach could do to stop the inevitable. The leader made a quick work of her and the woman was defeated before she could even figure out who was responsible for her undoing.
"Boss, what should we do with her? She looks like the kind that would fetch a good price on the market. If she is a virgin she might be worth a fortune as well." One of the bastards had a lewd look on his face as he asked his boss about what to do about the woman in their hands.
The boss on the other hand looked at him as if he was some kind of idiot who hadn't seen enough of the world.
"You idiot, look at her. Does she look like she would be a virgin? Where in the world have you seen a succubus that was a virgin? She is used goods at best."
Even though the leader had a condescending look on his face as he addressed his subordinate, a perverted smile spread over his face as soon as he took in the rare physical features of the woman.
No matter whether she was a human or a succubus, her figure was definitely unforgettable.
"Why don't we enjoy her first before selling her off in the market?" The leader let out a guttural laugh before looking at his subordinates as if waiting for them to compliment him for his cunning and quick thinking.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ Another subordinate that had a lanky and thin frame but a pockmarked face laughed the loudest after his boss. There was always someone like that in such a group that was only around because of their cunning and smooth tongue. These people always knew what to say in any situation to please the boss.
This one was no different either. As soon as he knew what the boss wanted, he started flapping his tongue like a loyal dog that he was.
"As expected of our boss; you are definitely the brightest of all of us. Why didn't we think of that?" The subordinate flattered without any shame while the rest of his compatriots side eyed him like he was dog poop at the side of the road.
On the other hand, their boss found it quite pleasing to his ears. The words uttered by the lanky one satisfied the vanity of the boss as he pushed out his chest by a few inches and his back straightened a bit more as he tried to walk more gracefully.
"Hmph…you useless lot have learnt nothing despite having followed me for so long. You need to squeeze out every little benefit without affecting the price of the product before selling it on the market. It's like wasting every bit of the animal carcass other than the meat just because it doesn't sell for much. You need to squeeze out every penny before selling the meat." The boss lectured his subordinates like an experienced professional in the field who was trying to look after his subordinates.
The boss gave a slight pause after having lectured them for a good quarter of an hour. He looked at them for affirmation and to see the looks of worship in their eyes but found only blank looks instead. As if his words had been too much for them.
"Maybe it was too much for their little brains. I should keep it down to their level next time." The boss figured that his subordinates had been unable to keep up with his level of intellect.
In reality, the subordinates who had been through this torture numerous times knew that the boss would go on like this for a long time if they gave him even the slightest hint that they found his lecture helpful. Even the lanky one didn't speak out this time despite being fully aware of what the boss wanted from them.
The boss let out a grunt as he looked at all of them one by one in disgust and disappointment but then thought that he needed to give them a carrot as well.
"She might be a succubus but she is a hot one. Since you all have worked hard, I might consider letting you all have a turn once I am done with her."
As expected, the subordinates started flattering him at once. The boss finally gave a nod of approval.
