Chapter 610 - Awe And Fear
A few moments into battle, Leon withdrew a silver needle, preparing to test his next experiment.
After he instilled a very faint trace of Nihility Law into the silver needle, he spread out his divine sense and shot the silver needle at a mutant rat\'s head.
Swoosh~!
The silver needle quickly shot through the air.
But before it could reach the mutant rat, the power of Nihility Law corroded the silver needle until it was exhausted, causing only the butt of the silver needle to remain, which penetrated the mutant rat\'s head slightly.
"As expected, the power of Nihility Law is too overbearing, huh? It\'ll be difficult to imbue Nihility Law into any of my attacks if it only ends up damaging my weapons," Leon muttered with a slight frown.
He could see that the mutant rat had survived with the butt of the silver needle sticking out of its forehead.
Nevertheless, the purpose of his experiment was not to kill the mutant rat but to cure it.
"Nevermind. I shall try something else," Leon decided.
Swoosh~!
He immediately dived into the sea of mutant rats and singled out one from the group, clutching it firmly by the neck before separating himself from the rest with a single spear swing.
Squeak! Squeak!
The captured mutant rat dangled powerlessly in Leon\'s grasp with its futile resistance before Leon locked onto the Wrathful Demonic Energy in its body and extracted every ounce of it.
Shortly after the energy was refined, Leon tossed the mutant rat back into the group.
Most of the mutant rats ignored it and continued rushing towards Leon in their vain attempts to hunt him down.
However, a few mutant rats paused and circled around the mutant rat that seemingly lost all traces of its berserk state, studying it curiously.
Squeak! Squeak!
The mutant rat tried to communicate.
However, in the next moment, the surrounding mutant rats immediately pounced onto it and tore the thing apart with their sharp teeth.
Within a few breathes, the mutant rat was mostly devoured by its berserk brethren, leaving nothing behind except a few bones and patches of blood.
"It\'s too troublesome to cure these guys. And even if I do, they just become food for their own kind, huh? This is not worth the effort," Leon understood.
It was better to just kill them all.
Once he arrived at this conclusion, he immediately exerted his Nihility Law to the limit, forming a short-range barrier around himself and simply allowed the mutant rats to charge to their own deaths like moths drawn to the flame.
Squeak! Squeak!
The mutant rats immediately cried after charging into the Nihility Law Barrier as Leon watched their bodies disintegrated.
However, there were too many rodents for the Nihility Law Barrier to completely stop the mutant rats from breaching his defense.
"My comprehension of the Nihility Law is still a little low…" Leon muttered casually without a hint of urgency.
With a wave of his hand, he summoned a wall of flames to incinerate his enemies, adding a flame barrier after Nihility Law Barrier.
Any chances of the mutant rats reaching Leon were reduced to zero.
As the mutant rats continued to kill themselves without further actions required from Leon, he took the chance to review his previous experiment on law fusion.
The power of fire and ice law fusion far exceeded his imagination.
"Although I expected the power of law fusion to be great, it was far greater than I had hoped. Is it because I chose two laws of extreme polarity or something else?" Leon pondered.
Most likely, if he was to attempt at fusion two other laws, it would not have been as difficult, nor would it have been as powerful as the fusion between ice and fire.
"I don\'t want to sound arrogant, but chances are, anyone else conducting a law fusion of fire and ice would most likely fail," Leon thought.
He thought he finally understood what it means to be a Hegemon of Primal Chaos, but it seems that there was still much to learn.
"Only people who practice the Hegemon of Primal Chaos would be able to bend the very laws of the universe, I\'m guessing?"
…
Meanwhile, the other beastkin warriors continued to observe the rat tide\'s situation from a distance on the black mountain before their eyes shrank.
\'What kind of power is that?\' The beastkin warriors were shocked.
Beastkin races with bird lineages like their Desolate Crow Clan were all endowed with sharper visions than any other beast races in the Wildlands.
They could see some sort of invisible power reducing the mutant rats into…
\'Is that energy?! This person is some sort of bizarre power to convert living beings into pure energy?!\'
Although the beastkin warriors could not recognize what kind of energy was being produced, it did not make them any less shocked than they already are.
In fact, they were even more shocked!
\'Just who is this human? How could he wield such a bizarre yet incredible power?\' The beastkin warriors\' gazed burned with intense curiosity.
At the same time, some apprehension and fear sprouted in their hearts.
The human\'s bizarre power appeared almost demonic due to their lack of understanding, and because they did not understand it, they feared it.
If the mutant rats could be converted into pure energy, then they could also be as well—If the human decided to use that power on them, that is.
\'This person must not be offended!\' The beastkin warriors thought.
Although they could not observe the whole situation clearly due to the mutant rats\' swarming blotting out the area, only allowing them to peer through the gaps from time to time, they did not believe their eyes deceived them.
The beastkin warriors glanced over to the Little Princess with questions in their minds but seeing that the Little Princess was chatting with her Uncle Jorn, they could only keep silent until she was done.
As for the Blue Luan and the other ladies in the group, the beastkin warriors were not familiar with them enough to strike up a conversation and ask.
"Uncle Jorn, since we do not have to worry about the berserk mutant rats, you can tell me what has been happening in the clan now, right?" Lilith asked.
"Well…" Jorn glanced into the distance for a moment before he nodded, "I suppose we can talk here."
