Chapter 339: Slaughter - Part 2
"It has begun! Heero informed Dominic after looking at his smartwatch. The specter's attack, it had begun.
"But why? Why are you using Sun City as a battlefield?" Dominic still did not understand that part. Why did they have to wait? Why didn't they just attack the specters before the attack?
he wanted to know directly from Heero's mouth.
"In order to catch all the specters and their minions, we need them to come and trap them," Heero pointed to the ballooned blackish layer in the sky.
"That way, we can make sure to wipe out their entire attack force in one fell swoop!"
The plan was to lure out the specters, all of them. He planned to clear all of those forces at once.
It was worth leaving the secret dungeon where Ryan White got his bloodline. Heero managed to gather all the important information. He could also see their discreet movements.
But during this time, he found out that the specters had many gates. There were so many gates they were hiding that even with Niadin's help they could not be tracked.
So when he knew that the Reaper planned to kill him in this year's Fighter Anteriority, he used himself as bait to lure out as many specters as possible.
Especially after he knew the existence of Shadow Bane, the Corrupted Dwarf, and Nightmare, the Beastmen would also be coming. He was ready to use himself as bait to lure them out.
Everything went well, and now all that remained was the execution. If they executed the plan well, they could trap the specters in the city and kill them all here.
Dominic did not have all this information, so it was natural for him to question Heero's decision. After all, his plan put the ordinary people in danger.
"Will you use the same technique you used in the Regal Kingdom?" The legend of the Divine Flame was known to everyone.
Dominic knew why the others had no idea that Heero had created the Flame. The technique was so effective that it easily wiped out the entire army of specters.
If Heero used the same technique, Sun City would be one hundred percent safe. Dominic wanted the least amount of damage to his city.
"No, don't you see that barrier?" Heero pointed to the translucent black barrier.
"That barrier should be able to block my fire. The specters have prepared everything to counter my flames."
"And the force that attacked the core region is not the specters, but humans and beastmen. My flame is useless against them."
Just as Dominic was about to ask a few more questions, the door was flung open.
Bam!
Dominic was a little surprised by the noise as he turned to the door. He saw Luca Lane and his five trusted subordinates, who were also Emperor Class Heroes, coming in.
"Oh, you came," Dominic's words were as if he had expected Luca Lane to burst in. He looked so frighteningly calm.
Luca Lane was confused and somehow felt uncomfortable inside. But it only lasted a moment before he grinned at Dominic.
"Yes, it seems you were expecting me, Dominic," Luca Lane then looked at Heero who was sitting on the chair, "We meet again, President Xing?"
Heero turned his head and waved his hand at Luca Lane with a grin, "Yo, you look healthy, Mr. Luca?"
It was an exchange of random gibberish and Heero played along with the guy.
"Of course I have prepared my body well for today's feast. But I have to hold my desire a little longer, because your wives are not here? Where are they, President Xing?"
Luca Lane no longer held back as he openly addressed his wives.
'I did not know why Lord Reaper was so careful with this guy, but I will claim his head and get my booty! If I bring his head, Lord Reaper will reward me as well.'
'We have six people and they are only two! Glen and Derrek will take care of Dominic, while the four of us will take down this cocky guy!'
Ah, before that I will not kill him but I will cut off all his limbs and make him watch me f*cking his women.
All his wives are hot, and there's even a pregnant one. I wonder what a pregnant woman tastes like?
Luca Lane licked his lips lewdly at the thought.
Heero was still smiling as he stood up in front of Luca Lane, "You're messing with the wrong man, Mr. Luca."
"Hahaha..." Luca laughed out loud at Heero's words, "You haven't realized your situation yet? I don't know if you are an arrogant fool or just overconfident, but I will tell you that you will die in my hands today!"
"We have mobilized seventy percent of our forces to destroy this city! Do you think you can survive?"
"Thank you for the information, Mr. Luca. Seventy percent, huh? That's not so bad..." Heero nodded his head.
If the seventy percent were here, then the remaining thirty percent were either in their bases or outside the city as reinforcements.
'Either way is good for us. I have the location of their secret bases, but the main target still has not appear.'
"Huh? It seems you have gone mad, President Xing," Luca could not help but think that Heero was mad.
He had admitted that the Sun City was under attack, at this point they should have realized that the city, including the people, were facing their doom.
"Hoho, it seems you are not aware of your situation either, Mr. Luca. Don't you think it's too quiet?" Heero smiled at Luca.
Luca was about to scold Heero, but he stopped himself in the middle when he suddenly realized something.
They were in the place of the opening ceremony where thousands of people had gathered. It should not be so quiet.
The current situation was too quiet; it was as if this place was empty. Luca felt something ominous and tried to look outside through the glass.
The thousands of people who had just cheered for the opening ceremony were nowhere to be seen.
"What the fuck?" Luca was shocked. He ran to the window and saw the place below him. He could only see a few people below, and those people were his people.
Just like him, these people were confused and at a loss. They were looking around.
Luca was beyond shock at that time. He could not comprehend the situation he was in.
"How could this be possible?" Luca turned around and was once again beyond shock.
He saw that his five subordinates had been taken care of by Heero. The five men were lying on the ground, unable to breathe with their throats cut.
Heero was standing with a sword drenched in blood. Luca could not believe what he was seeing.
He had only looked at the scene for a few seconds and all of his subordinates had been killed.
Without a sound and without a fight from his subordinates. Heero killed them cleanly.
It could be seen with the naked eye because there was no trace of a fight in the room.
"This is NOT POSSIBLE!!!" Luca screamed at the top of his lungs.
"I said you were messing with the wrong person, Mr. Luca, or I could say Reaper's follower."

The same situation occurred in the outer region. The sudden disappearance of the people caused confusion.
Roman and his companion stood on a ruined building. So far he could not find a single living person.
"What is this? Everyone is missing?" Roman looked around in confusion.
He and his group had marched a few kilometers away from the wall, but all they had done was destroy the building.
The middle-aged man next to Roman furrowed his brow. He unlocked his smartwatch and called the other groups.
"What's the situation there? We could not find a single living person here!"
"Same, the people in the outer region are missing, all of them!" A cold voice transmitted through the smartwatch.
"This could be a trap, what should we do now?" The middle-aged man asked.
They had dipped their feet into the city. They could not retreat at this point, as they had used a lot of resources to conquer the city and kill a man.
"You go ahead, I will retreat to the dwarves. If this is a trap, we can drop the barrier and retreat! Keep reporting the whole situation!" That was the reply the middle-aged man received.
"Looks like we have to keep moving up!"

Meanwhile, the pair of the young man and the middle-aged man rushed back to their original base.
"Roman and his group could not find the humans either! What about the inner region?" The young man asked the middle-aged man.
"The inner region seems to be fine, it's just that they only encountered a few people. This is strange..." The middle-aged man muttered in confusion.
"What about the core region? They should have been fighting by now, right?"
"Ugh, I can't contact our people in the venue." The middle-aged man shook his head in concern.
They had poured almost all of their resources into this attack. If they failed or even fell into a trap, they would be completely crippled.
They would be forced to hide and wait until they could recoup their losses.
The young man had the same thoughts.
"We have to check out the dwarves, I don't have a good feeling about this..."
Both hurried back to their base.
Bam!
They went back to the southeast wall, where the corrupted dwarves were. The dwarves were the main engineer that controlled the barrier, without them they would be trapped inside the city, so the two came back to guard the dwarves.
They rushed into the room and immediately headed for the control room.
The young man sniffed his nose, he could smell blood as he approached the control room.
The young man and the middle-aged man exchanged glances. Worry could be seen on their faces as they quickened their pace.
Bam!
They smashed the door to the control room.
"Hello, this is Hirata's team, we have secured the outer wall!"
Musashi Hirata and Lyera stood in the middle of the dead dwarves as he reported the situation through the smartwatch.
Besides them, there were eight other people. All the corrupted dwarves inside had been slaughtered.
"Good, the inner wall has been secured as well! You can start the slaughter!"
