The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 414: Taking Control
Chapter 414: Taking Control
"Let us just get inside. As long as the leader of this territory does not appear, we will go ahead and look for the core of this main territory building, so that we can take it over." Olivia stated before she took a step forward and entered into the main territory building, completely ignoring those that were trembling on the ground.
The three of them managed to enter into the main territory building without any resistance. Of course everybody understood that it was definitely impossible to resist the three ladies. After all, the power difference between them was extremely huge, and that was not something that they could cover with just numbers.
As for the matter of using equipment and so on in order to deal with them, that was definitely an impossibility. After all, for them to be able to control high ranking equipment, that implied that they themselves had to possess high power levels. Otherwise, there was definitely no way that they could bring out the full power of a high ranking weapon.
Olivia and the others could not help but frown the moment that they realized that they could not sense any strong presence within the main territory building.
From this, they could immediately tell that whoever it was that was considered as the leader of the territory was definitely not present. As for where that leader had gone to, they did not know.
"It seems that we will not have to deal with the leader of this territory for now. But even then, we can just go ahead and take over the entire territory. That way, things would be easier for us in this city." Olivia stated with an indifferent expression on her face as she looked around.
The other two ladies immediately agreed. So, the three of them set out to look for the core of the territory. For them to be able to take over the territory, they had to ensure that they took over the core of the territory.
It was a good thing that in order to take over a territory, they did not have to kill the owner of the territory. But instead, as long as they manage to infiltrate into the territory building, before taking over the core of the building, they would be able to control the entire territory.
But of course, it was not as simple as just going to the main territory building, going to the area where the core of the territory was located, before taking it over.
Of course it was quite difficult and a challenge, considering that in order to be able to take over a territory core, a person had to be stronger than the one that was currently holding the position of the territory, or the current owner of the territory should hand over the authority of the territory to the one who wanted to take over the territory.
After going around for about 30 minutes, the three of them finally managed to find where the core of the territory was located. It was actually located in a basement room.
Had it not been for the fact that they were extremely careful during the time that they were looking around, they would have actually not noticed that there was an entrance into the basement in the room that belonged to the leader of the military territory.
The basement room was not that big considering that it possessed dimensions of about 3 m by 5 m. The entire room was not occupied by anything, but at the center of it, there was a small ball that was floating in the air.
The color of the crystal ball that was floating in the middle of the room was green. The moment that they arrived here, they immediately realized that this was definitely the core of the territory.
Without hesitation, Diana took a step forward and approached the core of the territory. Since she was the one who possessed the highest power level among the three of them, she was the one that was going to try to take over the territory.
The moment that she arrived in front of the crystal that was glowing green, she stretched her hand and placed it on top of it.
The moment that she did that, Henry who was already several kilometers away received a prompt about him being able to take over a territory. Without hesitation, he immediately agreed.
Of course he was communicating with Diana, and she had already informed him that they were trying to take over the territory that belonged to the military. They had not found the leader of the territory, but since that was the case, they had decided to take over the territory.
Since Diana was Henry’s summoned creature, whatever it was that she was trying to take over, especially for a territory, was considered as belonging to Henry. So, the moment that she was trying to take over the military territory, Henry was the one who was going to receive the territory.
Just like how Henry had taken over the zombie territory, the same process was undergone, and Henry received full authority over the military territory. The moment that he received the authority over that territory, he immediately handed part of it to Diana.
Having already received control over the territory, the three of them immediately received information on how they were supposed to repair the invisible barrier that was surrounding the main territory building.
They went ahead and utilized several level 9 gold rank mutation crystals that were then utilized as a source of energy in order to recover the invisible barrier that they had just destroyed.
With that finally out of the way, they decided to continue waiting and see if the leader of the military territory was going to come back. After all, they did not believe that even after they had taken over the territory, he was not going to come back.
...
Several kilometers away from Hillstown city...
An intense battle was ongoing as a middle-aged man was fighting against a giant tiger. The battle between the two of them caused the ground under the surrounding areas to be destroyed due to the damage that they could deal.
Both of them had already reached the diamond rank, and the middle-aged man who was currently possessing short black hair, brown eyes, and a muscular stature seemed to be possessing an advantage over the tiger.
As the battle waged on, several skills were launched at each other, with each one of them aiming to destroy their opponent.
"You humans are extremely greedy. It is already good enough that we have allowed you to be going through this place, so that you can get what you want. But now, you have decided to attack the monster race? Do you think that we are easy to bully?" A thick and heavy voice resounded in the air.
The voice was filled with killing intent and hatred. The source of the voice was from the tiger. Considering the power level that the tiger possessed, it was not that strange for it to possess the ability of speaking.
Even after hearing what the tiger had said, the middle aged man did not even bother to respond. Instead, he continuously attacked using his fists.
His hands were covered in a pair of gloves that looked metallic near the knuckles. This was obviously a high-ranking equipment that had dropped after he had managed to kill a high-ranking apocalyptic creature.
There was a sinister aura that was surrounding this middle aged man. This kind of aura made the tiger feel uncomfortable, but there was nothing that it could do considering that it had to fight against this middle-aged man, or he was going to attack and kill all the members of the monster race in the surrounding area.
When the tiger realized that the words could not work on this human, it immediately continued to attack. But of course, the ferocity of the attacks had increased drastically. At this moment, that tiger had already decided to fight to the death with this human.
If possible, it wanted to make sure that the human died. But according to the situation, it definitely understood that it was impossible for it to be able to kill the human. So, to compromise, it decided that it was going to make sure that he suffered serious injuries. Only then would he retreat, and give the monster race a chance of surviving.
The middle-aged man on the other hand did not seem that much bothered by the struggles of the tiger. His expression told the fact that he was so adamant in making sure that he eliminated the tiger in front of him.
The battle continued raging for the next few minutes, before the tiger was completely overwhelmed. The middle-aged man was about to deliver a final strike to end the life of the tiger, but he suddenly paused his movements.
His indifferent expression suddenly changed to that filled with both surprise and anger. There was a complicated look within his eyes as he suddenly gazed into the distance.
"Who is it that has become so presumptuous within the territory that has decided to take over my territory? It seems that some people don’t really value their own lives." The man stated with a voice filled with killing intent.
Then without hesitation, he immediately attacked the tiger that had already tried taking the chance to retreat. Before the tiger could retreat that far, the man unleashed power that was way beyond the one that he had been using to fight the tiger all this time.
Boom!
With just a single strike, the air in front of the man exploded. The tiger that had already begun retreating into the distance was suddenly blasted into the air. It collided with several trees before it ended up dead.
As for the man, after taking the mutation crystal that was within the tigers head, he immediately headed towards the direction of Hillstown city.
