The Martial Unity

Chapter 822 First Blood



The first thing he did was cough thrice into the back of his hand. "Man, this place sure smells weird, it's itching my throat."

"Hmph, the air is completely normal," Squire Darbun snorted. "You can't even breathe normally, are you even a Martial Squire?"

He could not be bothered to give the slightest bit of a damn about the overzealous insecure juvenile with a crush on his team leader. The three coughs were a signal to Kane that an unexpected danger was due.

Since he knew he would not be able to directly communicate with Kane, he had devised many actions that were coded signals. Scratching his head indicated that Kane needed to leave immediately and hide in some tunnel leading to the floor. A yawn meant that Kane needed to leave the dungeon. He had even devised fifteen separate coded signals that each told Kane which Martial Squire he needed to kill with his knife in some emergency.

Kane immediately stiffened as he became even more vigilant of his surroundings even as maneuvered around the group to maintain Void Step actively.

('Fifteen more seconds,') Rui cursed inwardly. "I don't want to waste any more time, so I'm going head to my assigned location. The rules have already been laid clearly, and remember, we don't need to coordinate from here on out. Cough cough cough."

Rui immediately sky-walked away from the direction that the intruders were coming at a rapid pace without trying to seem too suspicious, in a moment he had already moved a hundred meters away from them.

Two more seconds!

"Hey," Squire Darbun growled. "Where-!"

BAM!

A powerful Martial Squire shot into their sensory range, startling them as they bull-rushed into him hard. A huge swarm of Martial Squires immediately rushed the entire group.

ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm "!!!" The fifteen Voidhunters shook as they immediately entered battle mode at the sudden ambush.

BAM BAM BAM!

They had engaged in battle as a clash of fists between the two groups had immediately ensued! Thankfully, Rui had already moved to the edge of their sensory range thanks to hurriedly moving away from the group under the guise of wanting to begin their operation. This gave him great plausible deniability for the timing since no one could possibly chalk it up to him having known in advance that they were going to attack and thus moving away from the target group at the right time.

He glanced at the battle even as he rushed away from it.

Squire Fren was surrounded by a few Martial Squires who did not let her escape. The sheer amount of pressure that emerged from that battle made even Rui stiffen just a little.

BAM BAM BAM!!!

A grade-ten Martial Squire pummeled her guard with heavy blows. He twisted his body with each attack, generating remarkable power that shook the entirety of the atmosphere violently on the twelfth floor. Each motion he made tore past the sound barrier as they left several sonic booms in their wake

Rui did not think that he would be able to take more than several blows of that caliber even with his Flux Earther technique before he was effectively as good as dead.

He was outclassed. There were simply no other words for it.

BAM!!!

Squire Fren grimaced as she withstood the blow with her guard, yet she had not come out unscathed. Her arms were bruising heavily, even swelling visibly, yet they seemed to mend and subside quickly as her high-grade healing factor kicked in. It was clearly much faster than Rui's and was healing wounds very rapidly.

"RARGH!" the Martial Squire threw a powerful blow, at her face, aiming for a knockout.

WHOOSH

The blow hit empty air. Her body coiled around that of her opponent as she began strangling him hard. Her arms locked his arm around himself in a way that strained his shoulder joint extremely hard.

CRACK CRACK CRACK!

The man screamed in pain as her knee borrowed itself into the back of his ribcage from behind cracking it as she tightened her grip.

SPLAT

"ARGH!" She grimaced, gritting her teeth as her back was exposed to a blade attack.

She had no choice but to let go, but she didn't intend to let him go free.

Her legs uncoiled from around him, yet her arms tightened as she spun about using sky-walking before hurling him down in a wrestling-style throw. She employed several gripping techniques, torque techniques and several supplementary technique to throw her opponent down with as much power as she could.

BOOM!

A shockwave the size of a small district rippled across the atmosphere as her opponent shot down towards the ground faster than a bullet!

Normally, this would not be a particularly lethal attack for a grade-ten Martial Squire like him. Yet they were not in normal circumstances at all.

Not at all.

"SSSK!"

Several serpents lashed out, camouflaged below the ground Their mouths opened as their fangs emerged. Yet despite being rushed at with many Squire-level threats, the Martial Squire simply grunted.

BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM!!!

Seven strikes.

Each with titanic power that blasted literal holes in the bodies of the serpents.

A veteran grade-ten Martial Squire whose Martial Path was centered around offensive rapid-fire could not be overwhelmed this easily.

Yet, neither could the tenacious ability of the taipans to survive without a body. Just when he turned back up to return to his assassination target.

SPLAT!

"RGH!" He grimaced as the bodyless head of the serpent still midair, managed to land a single fang into the fleshy muscle above the collar bone.

"AAAAARGH!" He screeched violently in pain unlike anything he had ever felt since the evolution apotheosis to the Squire Realm.

BAM!!!

The head of the serpent almost blasted into fleshy confetti from just a single strike, yet the damage had already been done. The man lost strength in his muscles as the world went dark.

Squire Fren had a vindictive expression in place of her normally detached expression as she watched the man succumb to a potent poison.
