Evolving My Mythic Legion With A Legendary Skill-Chapter 141: Cannon Fodder

Shen, bringing along a big part of his guards to search the domains, arrived near the huge settlement.

According to him, by stealing the treasures these lords had brought, he was helping humanity.

"Hmm there are a lot of domains, I am sure they must have a few precious things." Shen mumbled as he gazed around at all the domains.

Then his attention was attracted by the only domain that was standing beside the makeshift settlement, it looked so much different than anything he had seen.

"Huh? Why does that domain have so many buildings?" he wondered, and even the wood it was made of was so special.

’That is only at the 2nd Order?’ he thought, after all wood only remained at the 1st and 2nd orders.

"Go and search all the domains there, I will personally check out this one." He was sure this one was definitely holding some precious treasure.

"Yes sir!" the officers working under Shen all bowed before hurriedly running towards the settlement.

They all knew that their head officer was doing this without any permission so they had to search as many houses as they could before the Warden found out about it.

He could stop them but wouldn’t be able to punish them.

Shen’s connection had kept Arnold from even cursing him out even once.

With his hands clasped behind his back, he walked towards Neil’s domain, walking proudly.

Instead of his battle suit he was wearing an expensive looking robe, as he was about to meet someone important earlier but had to end his meeting.

"Sir, we have received strict instructions from the warden, you can’t search this-" the guards that Arnold had left behind instantly came to stop him.

Though they felt helpless, this guy was too arrogant and didn’t follow rules, they couldn’t do anything against him.

"Hmph you mere cannon fodders dare to stand in my way?" he huffed, his eyes glowing with a faint light.

The bodies of the several guards instantly froze, they couldn’t even move their eyeballs.

Shen possessed a skill related to the mind, so he could easily control others’ bodies.

His skill was pretty great but didn’t increase his power as much in direct combat.

Though with the essence transformation manual he had made up for that, at the 3rd Origin, the lords could change their essence significantly.

So most used it to make up for their weaknesses, even if the manual wasn’t highly suited for them.

So along with his mind abilities, he also possessed fire elemental essence.

Even the minds of the guards were frozen, they couldn’t even send any message to Arnold.

Chuckling to himself, Shen proudly walked closer to the domain, the buildings didn’t seem ordinary in it.

He stopped before the door and was even more surprised to find the barrier that surrounded the domain.

These wooden walls which seemed ordinary at first glance were also special.

’I don’t know if there is any treasure inside or not but this domain alone is a treasure it seems.’

Extending his hand, he touched the shield, even more surprised to find how sturdy it was.

Anyone under the third silver class wouldn’t be able to break it, even if they attacked for days.

But Shen was at the silver class of the 4th Origin, for him it was weaker than even paper.

CRACK CRACK

Applying some pressure, the barrier broke almost instantly as the walls started to crack.

He pushed the door open and stepped inside.

His gaze passed over the main building, the healing hut, the kitchen, the prison, the archer towers, and all the other things.

"Looks like this domain has been upgraded to 2nd Order less than 6 months ago." Since that was the case, then this domain was still under the 6 months protection.

And so he wouldn’t be able to enter the main building.

"Looks like he has got a lot of subjects too, then, let’s start the search." A hideous grin appeared over his face as he excitedly approached the first building which was the barracks.

BOOM

But he had only taken a couple of steps when suddenly a person landed before him with a loud thud.

"Where do you think you are going?" Neil stood before Shen, glaring at him.

"Oh." Shen was surprised at this guy’s speed. Even for someone at the 3rd Origin, he was quite swift, Shen almost didn’t notice him.

"Of course I am here to check this domain out, I have to make sure you didn’t knowingly or unknowingly bring a disaster from that place here." He said, showing a wide grin.

Neil was seeing him for the first time but he already hated that face a lot.

"Are you doing this after taking Arnold’s permission?" Neil asked, his frown deepening.

Didn’t that guy promise that their domains wouldn’t be touched? Are these humans still the same, going back on their words when it benefits them?

"Of course I am. How else can I be searching these domains then?" Shen shrugged, there was no match for him in shamelessness.

And what could this guy even do? Between the 3rd Origin and 4th Origin the difference was like a newborn human and a peak strength mutant elephant.

Shen thought that he would just kill this guy if he kept at it.

Neil clenched his fists, as he glanced at the guards, he couldn’t see their faces but they were just standing there.

Didn’t it just mean that Arnold had really given permission to this guy?

And he was at the 4th Origin, there was no way he would go against the warden’s word on his own.

As expected, humans were disgusting creatures.

At first Neil was thinking of staying in this settlement for some time, but now that thought disappeared completely.

It was better to just take his domain and stay away from these humans.

Or better yet just go to his teacher.

"I see, but I still won’t give you permission to search my house. I will just leave this settlement, so get out!" Neil spoke, suppressing his rage.

He wasn’t afraid to fight, but doing so might just get him more enemies and the fight might hurt the ones in the domain.

"Oh, whether you want to stay here or not, I am going to have to search it. Now step aside before I make you." Shen’s expression turned chilly too as he spoke threateningly.

"..." Neil’s expression relaxed, it seemed there really was no other choice, he sighed.

"Sure go ahead." he spoke, as Shen nodded with a smile, after all this guy was not stupid he thought.

But Neil wasn’t yet finished, "And die motherfucker!!"

[Agility Lock Activated!]

[Target Locked!]

The first thing he did was steal Shen’s speed, then his right hand flashed at extreme speed.

The head officer who had completely relaxed was taken off guard, he tried to dodge but much to his shock, his body was greatly disoriented.

As if it was not listening to him as well as just a few moments ago, as if his very agility had been stolen.

BANG

With a loud explosive sound, the fist connected with Shen’s nose, as the sound of it cracking rang out.

He was instantly blasted out of the domain and fell more than twenty metres away, his face skidding across the ground.

’W- What just happened? How? I got attacked?’ confusion, rage and many more emotions flooded his mind.

He couldn’t understand what just happened, and stayed there lying on the ground, his face buried in the ground.

His underlings who were starting to search the other domains all ran out in shock.

The shame of being seen in such a state made him even more angry, no matter what, this guy had to die.

His body shot up, eyes bloodshot.

He could feel the gazes of dozens of men, all looking at him in shock, it felt more like mocking to him.

"You brat!! You are courting death!!" Shen screamed, his bloodshot eyes glowing faintly.

Neil knew, without the phantom phases he wasn’t a match for this guy, even with those phases he wasn’t sure of victory.

"Boy, how about you let me take over? I can crush this guy like the bug he is." A tempting voice sounded in his mind.

’Get lost.’ Neil didn’t even consider her offer. In his normal state he could use some of the phantom’s ability but it was nowhere close to the phantom transformation.

And he didn’t want to reveal his identity as a phantom, that would bring too much trouble.

He would be hunted by everyone on the Zoratian planet.

But Shen didn’t give him any time to think.

Invisible threads shot forward and connected with Neil’s mind, his body suddenly froze.

’What? He has a mental type of skill?’ Neil tried his best to move but it was all useless.

"Hah You darn brat, how dare you disrespect me!! Do you even know who I am? Do you know who is behind me?" he shouted in utter rage.

Right now, Neil was like a puppet in his hands, he could kill him with a thought.

"I will make you an example, this is what happens when you forget your place and offend someone you shouldn’t!" Shen shouted while at the same time sending out mental signals.

CRACK CRACK

Both of Neil’s arms bent backwards all of a sudden, his skin was torn and black blood started to drip out.

Shen was a bit surprised by that sight, but he didn’t think much and continued to shout,

"Scream, cry and beg for mercy brat, you thought surviving that place made you someone big? You are just a bug that I can crush with a mere thought!!"

In the next second, Vritra’s shoulder was ripped open, flesh and bones clearly visible as Shen laughed maniacally.
