King’s Awakening - Chapter 459:
Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Role Swap!
We’ve been duped!
The members of Deathz, who had been confident in their plans, now tensed as they looked at the unveiled White warriors.
Obviously, they had been tricked. The supposed weaklings from the Jones family had been replaced by battle-hardened warriors in white.
God of Heaven War!
Earth War God!
Mystery War God!
Yellow War God!
And a dozen or so other with formidable auras, names unknown.
This…
Speechless, the Deathz members glanced at each other. All eyes then turned to their leader, the Judge.
“Damn it! Our signals have been blocked!” The Judge growled, anger flickering in his eyes.
“Judge, what should we do now!?” Someone demanded.
Despite their arrogant manners and contempt for the White War Department, facing them now, the Deathz members felt a chilling uncertainty.
They did not consider themselves capable of besting the White warriors in a head-on confrontation.
These were seasoned veterans, each one’s skills honed through life or death trials on the battlefield, reacting to death’s edge with a swiftness mere mortals lacked.
If they were still lurking in the shadows, assassination would provide a slim chance.
But now, their cover has been blown, and they faced the warriors directly.
It was suicide comparing their weakness against the other party’s strength.
As the Judge took in the sight of the serious White warriors, he issued the orders. “Retreat! Disperse! Everyone, scatter! As long as we can hide, they can’t touch us!” His words steadied their forces.
The Judge knew well enough that panic would only lead to worse chaos.
Despite their formidable abilities, the Deathz members were not adept at fighting as a unit.
The only chance of survival lied in scattering.
Upon giving his orders, the Judge turned to leave. In the blink of an eye, he was gone like an arrow from a bowstring.
Damn it!
Someone broke his silence, hardly believing the Judge’s resoluteness.
However, there was no time for hesitation. On seeing his departure, other Deathz members dispersed, unwilling to tangle with men from the White War Department.
“Kill them all! Leave none alive!” God of Heaven War decreed, leading the pursuit towards the retreating Judge.
Instantly, the Judge sensed an unsettling wind at his back. Just like being targeted by a wild beast, an eerie sensation swept over him.
“God of Heaven War!” He snarled in desperation. “I admit that we may not be your match in a fair fight.
“However, don’t you underestimate Deathz. If we are determined to escape, pursuing us will cost you dearly! Are you really willing to risk everything?!”
God of Heaven War, in response, outpaced the Judge with a few strides and blocked his path.
“Risk everything? Against you lot!?” God of Heaven War retorted emotionlessly, drawing a blade from his waist and without hesitation, slashing at the judge.
“You!”
Seeing this, the Judge was infuriated. But, against the oncoming blade, he had no choice but to evade.
His evasion, however, failed to fend off the pursuing blade, which swerved cunningly towards him again.
Hisss!
The Judge sharply inhaled in surprise, his pupils dilating, his hairs standing on end.
I’m finished!
The Judge quivered at the thought, just as the blade from God of Heaven War sliced across his neck.
At the next moment, he felt a warm flow on his neck as though something was gushing out, even emitting a wave of warmth.
Is this what death feels like?
It seems…not as painful as imagined…
The last thought sprang in the Judge’s mind before he collapsed into a pool of blood.
No one bothered with his fate as God of Heaven War was already in pursuit of the remaining Deathz members.
“Shit! The Judge is dead!” Those still fleeing were struck with dismay, as though hit by something unbelievable, their breaths caught.
Everyone knew the Judge was one of their most formidable. Yet, even he had fallen to God of Heaven War’s blade.
The White War Department was much stronger than they had anticipated!
A pang of despair and fear hit the fleeing Deathz members, overthrowing their senses.
But they had no choice. Their only chance of survival was to escape by any means necessary.
“You should’ve realized you could be killed when you chose to kill others!” Earth War God blocked several Deathz members, and then charged at them.
Boom boom boom…
In the blink of an eye, like bowling pins hit by a ball, those Deathz members were knocked off their feet, their eyes steadily losing their spark.
Meanwhile, Mystery War God had also intercepted several Deathz members.
Mystery War God held two daggers, agile as a slippery eel, mysterious and unpredictable.
Everywhere he went, his daggers were drenched in blood. In just a few seconds, seven or eight bodies had fallen behind him.
On the other side, Yellow War God had also finished his fight, leaving seven or eight corpses behind him.
After dealing with their opponents, the Four Great War Gods—Heaven, Yellow, Mystery, Earth—didn’t pause. Instead, they immediately changed directions and pursued the other fleeing Deathz members.
The night was bound to be a bloody one.
Everywhere, corpses and blood bore witness to the bloody scene.
However, for the White War Department, this was another day in the office.
The ones they killed tonight were none other than the wicked Deathz members. If they didn’t kill, the ones dying would have been themselves and the people of Dragon Realm!
