Who’s the Most Barbaric of Them All?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Seeing their tribesmen falling with Casey's every move, the barbarians nearby were as surprised as they were angry. They pounced forward. No one noticed that fist-sized Horned Bee Beasts had appeared in the treetops and bushes.

"Kill!" Casey shouted as a bluff and he charged toward the nearest barbarian, making his heart filled with excitement. He did not expect Yang Ling to come up with such a marvelous plan. If he previously was in awe of Yang Ling's powerful abilities, he was now convinced of the man's extraordinary stratagems.

"Don't move, I'll turn nasty if you move!" Alice clenched her teeth as she tied up the barbarians on by one who had lost their strength. She was excited and nervous when she saw the barbarians whose arms were thicker than her waist. She was afraid that these scary dudes would jump up suddenly.

As the chaos continued, the thick smoke on the opposite slowly scattered. It was clear that the barbarians' sacrificial ritual had been disrupted. The more hostages they could tie up now, the more possible saving her grandfather became. Alice became more and more excited, glancing at Yang Ling from time to time who was hiding in the treetops .

To Alice, Yang Ling was a mysterious person. She had never seen a Summoner who could summon this many Magical Beasts, nor had she seen a Summoner who would choose to control low level Magical Beasts such as Horned Bee Beasts and Evil Eyes. But without a doubt, Yang Ling's abilities were astonishing, very astonishing!

Other than his astonishing abilities, Alice had also never seen a man with that black hair and those black eyes. His gaze was sometimes fiery like a ball of flame, sometimes deep like the abyss. But no matter what, Alice could not forget the feeling of his tight embrace, that strange feeling of being flustered and nervous.

In their rage, the barbarians charged over like moths to a flame. But as the road was too narrow, only two of them could approach at each time. There was no way for them to take advantage of their numbers. The barbarians jostling at the rear roared loudly out of anger.

Every time a barbarian managed to get to the front, one of the Horned Bee Beasts that were hiding nearby shot out a near-transparent poison stinger at the critical moment, making the barbarian's body numb. Right after that, Casey struck it with an axe.

Seeing how powerful Casey was, the violent barbarians were both shocked and angry, but they did not suspect anything else in the moment. Just like that, the more barbarians that charged forward, the more hostages they captured. Even Alice's arms were tired from tying the barbarians up, much less Casey, who was doing battle. Slowly, the barbarians suffered a heavier and heavier loss .

 "A bunch of fools, step back, now!"

Just as Yang Ling was worried that he would run out of poison stingers, the leader of the barbarians finally arrived with a group of elite guards. "Since we have friends visiting the barbarian tribe, why don't you show yourselves?"

Feeling a large amount of killing intent rushing past him, Yang Ling realized that while he could fool the average barbarians, he could not deceive the wily old fox, the leader of the barbarians.

Yang Ling had just exposed himself when a messenger beside the leader of the barbarians shivered. He told the leader in fear, "Chief, that's him. His Magical Beasts destroyed everything!"

After narrowly escaping with his life, the messenger of the barbarians fearfully reported the situation to the leader. To him, Yang Ling, who could summon a large number of Magical Beasts to do battle, was a demon. In fact, he believed Yang Ling might even be more terrifying than a demon.

"Horned Bee Beasts that have evolved to the second stage, hmph, so that's why!"

The leader of the barbarians was observant, quickly noticing traces of the Horned Bee Beasts and understanding the secret behind Casey's power. He stared coldly at Yang Ling, "Just who are you, and why have you come here?"

"I am Yang Ling, and the reason for me coming here is simple!" Yang Ling laughed coldly and said slowly, "Hand over all captives, then pay for my losses today, that's all!"

The leader of the barbarians had not said anything when a muscular warrior beside him howled, "Rubbish! Since you dare come here, don't even think about leaving alive! Asking us to hand over all captives is a wishful thinking, hmph!"

Seeing the barbarians who were all talk, Casey and Alice heaved a sigh of relief. Between the shadows of the trees and the story of the mysterious Summoner, it looked like Yang Ling had already struck fear in the hearts of the barbarians with the previous big victory. Otherwise, if it were someone else, the leader of the barbarians might already have attacked them with an army.

Casey and Alice sighed in relief, but the pagoda mark on Yang Ling's forehead throbbed suddenly. Yang Ling exercised caution and immediately sent a team of Horned Bee Beasts to scout the surroundings. As expected, he soon found that a large group of barbarians were sneaking over under the water. The other party was using a method of diversion.

Advancing through a secret path?

Yang Ling let out a cold smile, quickly forming another idea. Since the barbarians used sneaky tactics, he did not mind giving them a surprise.

"Sir Yang, since this is the first time we are meeting, let me give you a present. Please accept it!" After hearing the report of the messenger and understanding that the barbarians responsible for the ambush were in position, the leader of the barbarians became confident.He shot a look to the guard beside him and the latter immediately threw a heavy bag toward Yang Ling.

Out of curiosity, Casey took large steps forward and opened the bag in a "crack" sound. Surprisingly, his face quickly turned pale. He pointed to the barbarians, unable to say anything. Alice looked over in confusion and immediately screamed, her body shivering. Turned out there were three bloody human heads in the bag, their eyes bulging. They had all died with remaining grievances.

"Great, great, great. This present is not bad!" Yang Ling laughed in extreme fury. "Courtesy demands reciprocity. Since it's the first time we are meeting, I'll return a small gift to you!"

Eye for an eye, and blood must be repaid with blood!

After catching the scent of blood, the horde of Horned Bee Beasts became excited. If not for Yang Ling's control, they would have charged toward the captured barbarians and started tearing their flesh. For revenge, and more for giving out a threat, Yang Ling did not mind giving the barbarians a display of the Horned Bee Beasts' power.

Under the confused gazes of the barbarians, Yang Ling softly clapped his hands. In that instant, a large group of Horned Bee Beasts flew out of the treetops and bushes. After wheeling in the air for a few rounds, they charged toward the captured barbarians.

"No... Save me!"

"Chief, save us..."

...

The captured barbarians struggled, but the Horned Bee Beasts latched onto them tightly, tearing away a large amount of flesh at each bite. In the blink of an eye, some of the barbarians rolled on the ground in pain, and some of them even had their intestines spilling out. In worse cases, some got devoured in an instant by the Horned Bee Beasts, leaving behind nothing but bloodstains.

Seeing the hellish sight before them, hearing the pathetic cries of their clansmen, even the merciless barbarians felt their hair stand on end and bodies shivering. Even the leader of the barbarians was no exception.Yang Ling's present was too shocking, and they did not expect that there would be someone more barbaric than them on this continent.

"Hmph, let's see who'll die more miserably!" The leader of the barbarians waved his arm after clenching his teeth. In that instant, a large group of barbarians emerged from under the water. They charged toward Yang Ling with their gleaming axes raised high.

Caught off guard, Casey turned pale. He clenched his teeth and charged forward with his ax, determined. "Sir, leave and take Alice, quick!"

"Sir, what are we going to do?"

Alice was frightened out of her wits. She looked helplessly at the large group of barbarians charging over, totally unaware of the large group of bloodthirsty Evil Eyes behind her.

"It'll be fine, don't worry!" Yang Ling carried the scared Alice and said coldly, "There's a solution to every problem. Since these barbarians are rushing to their deaths, then let us send them on their way!"

At the same time, looking at the howling barbarians, Casey felt a mixture of emotions. To think that the death got close to him again after being saved by Yang Ling, his wish to get back home seemed so precious, yet remote.

But if he had another chance, he would still charge forward without hesitation.

"Kill!"

Casey lifted the giant ax in his hands high in the air, but he had not struck downward when something unexpected happened! Pathetic cries rang out as the barbarians charging toward him were reduced into mush by a heavy blast of flash bombs.
