Nothing is Fair in War

Lin Fan didn't feel right about the feeling of being watched and pulled out a remote in his hand. It was a remote for a second [Blaze Fire Generator] that he had hidden from everyone in the sect. He sighed and activated the remote before a gigantic blue shield shot outwards and blinded everyone in the sect.

The new [Blaze Fire Generator] should be able to take ten hits from any demi-god that was on the planet the last time he checked. There was a five thousand demi-gods on the east continent, and the strongest was in the middle rank of the demi-god realm.

The demi-god realm had three parts to it, the introductory part, the middle phase, and the end part which was called the mortal shedding stage. At this phase, you were already considered a part of the god realm, but still kept your feet in your mortal body. You could become a demi-god once you were in the mortal shedding stage instantly, but most would chose to wait a few hundred years to understand as many laws as they could.

The secondary and primary laws were of crucial importance but there was laws of mundane things that didn't relate to elements and power output. These were called penumbra laws because they had to do with laws that were relatively minor and unimportant.

Lin Fan hadn't even begun to understand the thousands of penumbra laws, but had a pretty good sense of the law of time. He'd reached thirty percent in the mastery of time and also could slightly see fate strings. He looked up and took a deep breath. Nothing seemed to be in the clouds besides the moving midnight doves as they headed towards the ocean.

'You're being crazy Lin Fan... You spent sixth months collecting information on every single demi-god so you wouldn't have this problem... If there was a weapon that could destroy your shields, you would've learned about it by now...'

Lin Fan took a deep breath and walked towards the Fan Sect Workshop before he suddenly felt the ground rumble. He turned to look at Han Zhou who shrugged his shoulders. The only one who seemed somewhat agitated was Glenn Kong.

"Lin Fan... I know I just met you, but... I might have to quit... Keep the books as payment..."

"What?" Lin Fan said before he looked up and saw a large beam of light starting to form in the sky. It looked like a large sun was forming and beginning to grow outward... "What's about to happen? Tell me as my fellow brother in the search of beauty..."

"A real demi-god... Not the kind that I can mess with under such a weak contract... I can stop that one attack for you, but you're going to have to deactivate your shield..."

Lin Fan's face dropped with disbelief as he looked up at the attack. Why would he disable the shields? Was he asking for death...

"I'll hit that attack with this cannon... It should knock my old master back, but then I'm seriously going to flee... The Sacred Ring of Assassins must be here because someone hired them... I'm sorry..."

"Wait! I'll triple your pay!" Lin Fan was sweating as he looked up at a gigantic burning sun beginning to slowly move towards them... "Come on! I know you must have a treasure hidden in there to stop that thing..."

"Move the damn warship! I'll do this job for free, but get this freaking thing out of here!" Glenn Kong sighed and moved towards the generator before he took out a small metal device and clicked it against the first forcefield.

It instantly seemed to deactivate and get sucked into the metal pole in his hand as Glenn Kong turned to the generator and clicked on a remote control he had in his pocket. The generator instantly started to pure and cause all the grass to float up into the air.

The bunnies fled from their holes as Glenn Kong sighed and pointed at the sky.

"Pox Ran... I know you're there! Stop trying to attack my new friend or I'll burn you out the sky..."

"Answer me!" Glenn Kong said before he pushed on the trigger.

A sound that was so horrifying it caused the ground to crack shot out of the generator at the large gigantic sun. The attack he was aiming at was called the [Setting Sun of Dignity]. It was a basic attack in Pox Ran's arsenal that Glenn Kong had seen a lot as a child.

He'd one day been training in the Apotheosis Stage, when he was only ten, when he asked Pox to not hold back. The later smiled and opened up his hand and created a small sun so large that the leaves on the trees melted as if they were wax.

Animals began to die around him from the sheer vibrations sent out from the [Setting Sun of Dignity] before Glenn Kong himself collapsed. If that attack got near the Fan Sect, everyone not in the demi-god realm would probably be disabled.

The war would be over before it even began...

Lin Fan would probably be alright, but his Ocean Realm soldiers would be wiped out. The rules of war were dictated by the planets in charge of Horizon and he wasn't going to just let one assassin ruin his new friends chances.

Loyalty!

Fierce loyalty to someone that he just met was insane, but he hadn't had a friend in such a long time that seemed so genuine! He'd been working for rich men that cared more about hand care then they did about actually protecting some...

"I'm sorry, but who are you again?"

A voice came out of the clouds before the sun disappeared... "I just wanted you to disable the shields... Turn them on again and I'll destroy every single person you care about Lin Fan... Good luck sleeping tonight..."
