Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 298 Since you want to smack us, then let me smack you too

If Alex was here, he could have easily pulled out an excuse in front of the newcomers.

But Queen Mother and Professor Frances were not Alex, so buls***ing is out of their league.

As such, the only thing that they could do now was to fight.

"..." Both of them stayed silent, as they prepared themselves to attack.

The newcomers, whose grey robes were swirling along with the wind, gave a startled gasp as they too assumed their fighting stances.

"Leader, these two..." One of the grey-robed people said as he looked at the one leading their group.

"I know, these two surely are up to no good." The ’leader’ replied. "Just look at how they reacted to our presence. They must be someone sent by the TimeMasters!"

The leader’s voice sounded melodious, making Queen Mother realize that this one was a female.

"This woman seems to be so sure of herself." Queen Mother thought to herself as she narrowed her eyes. "Is she confident about her power? But from what I can sense, this woman is-"

"Boom!" Before Queen Mother could continue her thoughts, the five newcomers started to make their moves!

Silhouettes of glowing orbs appeared behind each newcomer, with each newcomer having one glowing orb behind them.

The only exception was the leader, who has 3 glowing orbs behind her.

At the instant that these glowing orbs appeared, the power around the grey-robed people suddenly tripled, as if the orbs provided them with a boost of power.

An unknown type of energy began to flow out of their bodies, which circulated all around them.

Both Queen Mother and Professor Frances frowned as they saw all of these happenings. That energy that came out of the newcomers made them feel a little apprehensive, and also a little curious.

The frown on the faces of the two seemed to have been obvious, as the leader of the newcomers started to laugh, with her voice sounding like the tinkling of the bells.

"What’s the problem you two? Don’t tell me this is your first time facing a group of Dao Core Practitioners?" The leader said as the energy coming out of their bodies started to increase. "And here I thought that you two are just pretending to be weak. But from the looks of it, you two could have not even stepped into cultivation!"

"..."

"Hmph, since I am in a good mood today, I might decide to spare you two." The leader said ’magnanimously’ as she flipped her hair. "Just kowtow in front of me, and I will accept you as my servants."

The leader then made some licking sounds as her eyes landed on Queen Mother’s voluptuous body. "Especially you, beautiful woman. If you accept my offer to be my servant, I will make you experience bliss under me!"

"Well said leader! Well said!" The companions of the leader behind him shouted eagerly. The leader seemed to be pleased with this, as a smile appeared on her face.

"But if you will not follow me, then we will have no choice but to eliminate you two. After all, we can’t have any outsiders on this place!"

"...."

**************

Under this threat by the leader, both Queen Mother and Professor Frances seems to be not perturbed, as they started conversing to themselves calmly.

The newcomers were forced to watch as Queen Mother and Professor Frances started talking to each other like there were no people around them.

"Frances, how strong do you think these people are?"

"Tree girl, I can see that these people are all around Third Stage of power."

"All of them at the Third Stage? That makes me relieved. But Frances, how did you know their power level?"

"Tree girl, during my stay at the last world, I created a biological sensor which can detect power levels of any individual. Right now, that sensor is inside my head, feeding me information directly."

"Frances, can you also put those sensors on me too? That actually sounds cool."

"Tree girl, as long as you let me take a sample of your blood, I will place a sensor inside you flawlessly. All I need is just a drop of your blood."

"It’s all settled then, Frances. Let’s do it late-"

"You two! Are you mocking me right now?" The leader seemed to be unable to contain her rage as she glared at Queen Mother and Professor Frances. "I offered you something out of my goodwill, and yet you dare to ignore me? Do you want to die or what?"

"Hmph, if you want to attack us, then you better do it now." Professor Frances said as she sneered at the leader. "Didn’t you say that you will kill any outsiders? Come on, do it now!"

"...You asked for it! Don’t you regret saying those words!" The leader shouted out as the professor’s taunt on her worked. "My comrades, let’s blast these bastards into pieces!"

"Boom!"

The glowing orbs behind the newcomers started to absorb the unknown energy, as the newcomers pointed their fingers at Queen Mother and Professor Frances.

Once all the unknown energy was absorbed, all the glowing orbs combined with each other, forming one large orb.

This large orb then changed its appearance, transforming itself into a massive boar.

The boar, which was the size of a mountain, raised its hooves menacingly as it glared at Queen Mother and Professor Frances.

The ground beneath the boar’s feet began to crumble, as if the boar’s weight was too much even for the ground.

At the instant that this boar appeared, all the newcomers waved their fingers in a pattern as they shouted,

"Combined Core Qi Spell: Descent of the Mountain-Bashing Boar!"

"Roar!" After they said this incantation, the boar in front of them let out a bellow as it rushed towards Queen Mother and Professor Frances, with its tusk pointed directly at their bodies.

The whole forest seemed to rumble as the boar approached the two.

Even the air seemed to be affected too, as the nearby trees were toppled by the wind generated by the boar’s movement.

"Roar!" The boar’s muscular body began to ripple as the unknown energy inside its body started to strengthen it. Its eyes began to turn red as its movements started to get powerful.

In fact, with every step that the boar made, its momentum seems to increase too!

"Hahaha! The Mountain-Bashing Boar is a divine beast that can topple mountains with its mighty rush! Nobody can survive against it!" The leader said out loud as the boar continued barreling towards Queen Mother and Professor Frances. "If I were you, I would do my best to dodge! But its too bad for you two. You won’t be able to dodge our boar anymore!"

"..."

Instead of appearing scared from the massive being that is approaching their way, Queen Mother and Professor Frances seemed to be only barely interested as they gave the boar a sparing glance.

"Tree girl, just like what I told you earlier, we will have no problem here. These people are just at the Third Stage. You can easily beat them."

"Frances, when I saw that boar, I thought I will have to fight with my life on the line. But as it turns out, it’s just an imitation of the real one."

"Tree girl, are you interested on taking it down? I am exactly not good at this kind of stuff."

"Fine, fine. I shall deal with his pig then."

"You bastards! Are you mocking us again?" The leader cried out in anger as the boar roared angrily too.

"So what if we do? Your boar deserves it." Queen Mother replied as she started to walk towards the raging boar.

At every step that Queen Mother took, her body changed, as her height began to increase drastically.

Her body began to thicken too, making her look extremely imposing.

"Pit pat pit pat."

Professor Frances and the newcomers could only watch with wide eyes as Queen Mother’s body grew at every step she took.

One step earlier, and Queen Mother was just as large as a normal tree.

Ten steps later, and Queen Mother was already as large as a building!

"!!!"

More steps later led to the point where Queen Mother was larger than the boar already, with the boar’s height only reaching Queen Mother’s waist!

"Hiiii!" The boar seemed to have lost its bravado after seeing the giant version of Queen Mother. It began to slowly back away as it let out whining sounds.

"No. You don’t get to back away from here. Since you want to smack us, then let me smack you too." Queen Mother muttered as she twisted her body, pulling her right arm back until it was cocked like a gun.

Queen Mother then clenched her right hand slowly as she stored her some of her vitality on her right fist.

When her right fist began to glow brightly, Queen Mother let out a groan as she sent that fist hurtling towards the boar!

"Kiee!!!!" The boar disintegrated as Queen Mother’s fist collided with it, with its body breaking down in just a moment.

The trees all around the boar all disappeared too, as Queen Mother’s punch broke them into splinters.

The newcomers, who were shell-shocked at the image of the gigantic Queen Mother, spat out large quantities of blood as the boar got destroyed.

Their faces turned ashen, as the vitality inside their bodies began to weaken.

All of them began to look panicked, especially when they saw that Queen Mother’s fist was now heading towards them!

"!!!!"

At the moment that Queen Mother’s fist hit their bodies, a golden glow appeared around the newcomers, which slowed down Queen Mother’s punch.

But this golden glow did not last that long, as it was immediately shattered just a second later.

Without any obstructions, Queen Mother’s was able to punch the newcomers directly!

"Crack!"

Multiple cracking sounds could be heard as the force of her punch broke almost all the bones in their bodies.

Blood seeped out of their skin as their organs began to rupture from the inside!

The treasures around these 5 started to fall on the ground, as their control on them seemingly disappeared. Some of the treasures were even destroyed, as they were caught in the range of Queen Mother’s attack.

To anyone seeing what just happened, it was quite obvious that it was an overkill!

"Slither..."

After she punched her enemies into destruction, massive tendrils sprouted out of Queen Mother’s finger, wrapping themselves around the newcomers.

The tendrils wrapped themselves in a net-like pattern, creating a cocoon-like structure around the newcomers.

As her tendrils continued on wrapping their bodies, Queen Mother’s body began to decrease in size, only stopping when she went back to her human form.

At the moment that she reached this size, Professor Frances, who was watching everything that happened with a twinkle in her eyes, gave Queen Mother a smirk as she said,

"Tree girl, that was a nice punch. You sure killed that boar in one hit!"

"Frances, that boar is just a spell. My body is powerful enough to kill it." Queen Mother replied with a sigh. "It’s just as simple as that."

"Speaking of that boar, are you sure that these 5 who conjured that boar are still alive? We need to bring them back to Alex for questioning."

"Don’t worry Frances. That golden glow which appeared earlier managed to weaken my punch to the point that these 5 were left hanging for their lives" Queen Mother replied as she looked at her tendrils. "Yes, these 5 were heavily injured, but they still have some life left in them. As long as I feed them with my vitality, we can interrogate them easily."

"In that case, what are we waiting for? Tree girl, let’s bring these 5 back to our base! We have to talk to them now!" Professor Frances said as a manic glint appeared on her eyes. "You never know... someone form them might die before we can talk to them!"

"Frances, I don’t like that look in your eyes." Queen Mother said as she peered at the professor suspiciously." Are you... planning on using some of your experiments on them?"

"Ha? Did I say that?"

"You didn’t but it’s quite obvious that you plan to do it."

"If I did not say it, then it will not happen."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Then will you promise that you will not do it?"

"Um well..."

"So you are really planning on doing it. "

"Hey!"
