The Martial Unity

Now that Kane and Rui were freed up, they were unstoppable together, they quickly began taking down Martial Apprentices one by one.

Kane was like a fish in water, abusing his stealth to the most to launch the Godspeed technique that allowed him to take down Martial Apprentices almost with a single attack. Rui took Martial Apprentices the hard way, yet very few managed to last longer than a short amount of time against him. While his physical parameters were certainly extremely impressive, they weren't beyond all fathoming. There were all-rounder Martial Apprentices that, as far as raw technical parameters went, were comparable to him.

But because of the Mindmirror Brain and the VOID algorithm, none of them managed to last more than a brief amount of time against him.

Rui glanced around the battlefield, spotting his friends.

Fiona was holding her own against two Martial Apprentices just fine. Although the level of dominance wasn't anywhere near to that of Kane's despite being of a higher grade than him. Kane just had a ridiculous amount of affinity with the circumstances they were in.

Fiona was fighting against a long-range Martial Apprentices, applying her Vacuum Palm technique to cut down on the distance between them, hoping to strike him with one of her devastating lethal attacks and win the fight on the spot.

Nel was fighting against three Martial Apprentices with a rabid grin> This was despite getting pushed back by all of his opponents.

('Idiot.') Rui sighed. Rui was certain that he had gone out of his way to provoke himself into those circumstances. He immediately headed over to relieve his friend.

Soon the defensive team assigned to the colonizing convoy of the Sekigahara Confederate was slowly getting overwhelmed. The Martial Apprentices slowly retreated until the numbers' disparity had grown so much by this point that they could no longer even cope.

The defensive convoy had long followed suit, leaving the Bolexeuen Hill.

The mission was a success.

The Kandrian Empire had successfully booted out the Sekigahara Confederate convoy from colonizing the most lucrative parts of the land.

He could already sense from a distance that there was a convoy being dispatched by the Kandrian Empire to colonize and build a defended base in this location. They had not yet been instructed to retreat from the Boloxeuen Hill, most likely to serve as additional protection for the convoy of the Kandrian Government.

A few Martial Apprentices on the side of the Kandrian Empire had died away in the middle of that heated battle. Their bodies had already begun being consumed by the roots of the forest that surfaced and began wrapping around their corpses and dragging them deeper into the ground. A process that Rui still found creepy.

Thankfully, his friends were all safe again once more. Though Rui swore that Nel might have even died had Rui not helped him out at that point.

Once the convoy arrived, it immediately began laying down heavy fortifications around the territory to begin securing it. The convoy had been supplied with its own defensive team that had tagged along with for security. With the defensive and offensive teams together, there was a security force protecting the territory until it stabilized.

It took forty-eight hours for the initial fortifications to be built. By then, the base had obtained enough stability for the offensive team to return to their previous territory. Their mission was complete, after all.

They would no doubt receive praise for their strong victory as well as a fat bonus from the Martial Union. On the other hand, the Sekigahara Confederate grew even more frustrated.

"Our defensive measures didn't work! That Martial Apprentice tore past our trio team meant to keep him preoccupied like it was easy. Then he proceeded to free up his comrade from his harasser. The two of them began accumulating damage onto our force until it became too much!"

The analyst department scratched their heads as they took even graver measures to handle them.

"Five high-rank Martial Apprentices." A sergeant said. "That's how much we'll deploy next time against codename Abyss. It doesn't matter how strong he is. No one in the Apprentice Realm can possibly fight high-ranking Martial Apprentices simultaneously. As for the stealth one, double the number of powerful sensory Martial Artists. He was unable to break past one of them all by himself. Two of them will be more than enough to finally take him down once and for all."

Their subordinates immediately bowed before heading out to make the preparations of executing the orders of their superiors.

He sighed. "Where did such a monster come from? Is he really even in the Apprentice Realm at all? They didn't find a way to smuggle inside the territory a Martial Squire, did they?"

That's how impressive Rui was. The predictions he made were high accuracy, furthermore, the counter-adaptive model of the VOID algorithm was abysmal. It was a style that allowed Rui to squeeze out literally drops of water from a stone.

They hadn't yet figured out his actual identity yet, as of this point. They had heard of similar corresponding pieces of information from the small nations that the Kandrian Empire has squared off against; The Republic of Jerefin, the State of Hreefal and the Kingdom of Nochus. Putting together an even more elaborate profile together.

"I found a lead on the identity of codename Abyss." Sekigaharan intelligence officer noted. "The fluidity and lack of uniformity in his fighting styles resemble that of Contest Rui Quarrier of the Martial Contest in the Kandrian Empire."

"What is the likelihood of this being the case?" The head of the intelligence department asked. "Regardless, continue investigating the Martial Apprentice codename Abyss. We need to look at all possibilities and from the looks of it, this very well might be the case. Gather all of the information on the matter in any way you reasonably can. There's a very good chance we can use it to formulate a way to defeat that monster."
