Elemental Domain

Chapter 7 Wei

Viper was the founder of Viper Mercenary Group. He was once Reza Empire's military officer. He was expelled because he offended the son of Prince Dolu. Although he was unwilling to leave, he did not dare to retaliate. Fortunately, he was still a Second Grad mage, so he quickly roped in a relatively large mercenary group to work for him.

They constantly wandered around the border of the various countries in order to create chaos to stir up war and sell firearms to profit from it. Viper was a cautious person. Every time he took action, he would in advance find out the strength of his opponent. Then, he would take action to ensure that it was absolutely safe. If his opponent was a Second Grade mage or above, he would always avoid them. This was the reason why the Viper Mercenary Group could survive for a long time. And this time, they would be trading firearms with another mercenary group at the border between Reza Empire and Xia Country. Viper had originally planned to go to a place where no one knew him and spend the rest of his time freely after finishing this business deal.

"Who dares to invade my Viper Mercenary Group?" The dark-skinned Viper asked sternly.

"The person who is going to kill you." A voice came from outside the tent, and Viper felt a hot gust of wind rush towards him. He subconsciously took a few steps back.

Boom! A clear fist print appeared where Viper had just stood.

Seeing the fist print on the ground, Viper's pupils contracted. Why would a Second Grade mage attack his camp? "Enemy attack!" Viper immediately roared.

"There's no need to shout. You can go accompany them soon." The voice came out again.

"You and I are both Second Grade mages. Are you so confident that you can defeat me?" Viper said ferociously, and then layers of pale yellow elements slowly covered his body.

"Do you know? Among mages of the same rank, I rarely lose. It is your misfortune to choose me as your opponent. I will t*****e you well and tear apart your bones one by one. I will make you regret coming to this world." He licked his lips and said.

"Oh, is that so? Just because you have earth type Magic Elements? If that's the case, then you will be disappointed." The sound was mixed with the strong wind as it came again.

Viper barely managed to dodge. He immediately rushed out of the tent. The space inside the tent was too small for him to preform. Thus, he had to go outside the tent. That way, he would not be led by the nose by others. Viper, who had just rushed out of the tent, suddenly stopped. He turned around stiffly, only to see that his abdomen was tightly bound by a vine.

The heads of Viper buzzed. No wonder the other party was so confident, the wood and fire attributes were enough to suppress himself. The person had come prepared. Thinking of this, Viper immediately spoke up, "I wonder which lord I has offended. I hope you can forgive me. If you can spare my life, I am willing to become your most loyal servant." To him, dignity was nothing compared to his life. Moreover, someone who could easily find two Second Grade mages was not a nobody. If he followed him, he might even be able to get promoted. Just as Viper was calculating in his heart, a thin figure appeared in his line of sight. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the person was wearing a ghost face mask.

"I'm sorry, you are not worthy. Today, you will die." The thin figure said, and then another fire fist smashed at Viper.

Seeing the fire fist smashing towards him, Viper desperately covered his body with elemental energy, trying to resist Masked Man's attack.

"Bang!" The fire fist smashed into Viper's body.

A mouthful of blood spurted out of Viper's mouth, and the vines on his body also broke. He reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and Viper said ruthlessly, "Your Excellency, I have no grudge with you. Why did you come to kill me? Don't force me. If a dog is cornered, it will jump over the wall. Moreover, I am still a person. If you push me too far, I will drag you down if I die."

"Oh, a desperate dog jumping over a wall? This phrase is very suitable for you, but are you worthy?" The masked figure pondered for a moment before speaking with disdain.

"You, you are going too far." Viper, who was trembling in anger because of Masked Man, roared, and then he charged towards Masked Man. However, as soon as he reached Masked Man, Viper looked at the golden light that was slashing towards him in disbelief. That was Metal element magic. Viper felt that his brain wasn't enough. Wasn't this person in front of him fire element mage? How could he know Metal element magic? Could it be that he was a dual element magician? Viper immediately confirmed his thoughts. He forcefully stopped himself from moving forward and fiercely lay down on the ground. That was why he managed to avoid the sharp golden light.

"A dual-element mage?" Viper, who had just dodged the attack, thought in his heart. He needed to find an opportunity to retreat, otherwise, he might die here.

"Friend, I don't know why you want to kill me. If it's because of money, I will double the number of people who hired you." Viper carefully probed. He wanted to use this to make the people on the other side lower their guard. It would be easy for him to find a chance to escape. There was a forest less than a kilometre ahead. He was confident that he could survive as long as he could escape to the forest.

"Then I'll leave the money for you to use in the hell. I'm afraid I'll use it to shame my conscience." Masked Man said mercilessly. At the same time, he threw a fire fist at Viper.

The Viper was just about to dodge, but his ankle was once again entangled by the vines. Then, the fire fist smashed into Viper again.

After the fire, the black Viper lay on the ground and struggled. He never thought that he would die like this after being cautious for his entire life.

Lifting his bloodied face, Viper asked, not reconciled to die like this, "Who are you? What kind of grudge do we have?"

"You can call me Wei. As for grudge, I have no drudge with you." Masked Man shook the flame in his hand and replied.

"Then why did you kill me?"

"I killed you to avenge those ordinary people who died because of your selfish desires. Well, you know what you should know. Now, be good and go to die." After saying that, Masked Man raised his hand and a ray of golden light pierced through Viper's heart.

"I don't feel wronged to die in his hands." This was Viper's last thought before he died...

This ghost-faced Masked Man was naturally Li Kong. Ever since he had mastered the Flame Fist, the old man had constantly arranged for him to fight with some evil people. After that, there was the mage. Li Kong, who had just started killing people, had vomited for nearly a week. Now, he was slowly getting used to it. This was because the people he had killed were all extremely evil people. "Next, Talo?" Li Kong muttered to himself, and then carved a neat "Wei" character beside Viper.

"Viper, you bastard! How dare you stand me up!" In a sealed room, the bald man, Talo, cursed. He and Viper had agreed to trade firearms in Gasol City, but Viper had not appeared after two days. How could he not be angry?

"Boss, Viper is very trustworthy. He won't cheat us."

"That's right, Boss. Besides, this is a big deal. It's impossible that he doesn't want to do it. I'm afraid that something is wrong. Why don't we leave first?"

The two disciples beside the bald man echoed.

"En, that makes sense. Xiang Zi, send someone to investigate and see what happened. We will retreat first." The bald man said after thinking for a while. It should be known that their trade were extremely dangerous. A careless mistake could not only ruin wealth, but also their life. Although they had already put life and death aside, who didn't want to live for two more days?

Just as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang and the secret chamber door was blasted open. Li Kong, wearing a ghost mask, slowly walked in and said, "You don't need to check. You will see him soon."

Loud noises kept coming out of the secret room. When the secret room quieted down, there were three corpses with frightened faces lying inside, and there was also a neatly written word, "Wei".

In the next month, the people who had done all the bad things were trembling with fear. They were afraid that the person wearing the ghost mask would suddenly appear by their side and kill them without mercy.

No one knew what the word "Wei" represented, and no one knew who killed these evil people. All of these became enjoyable topics of conversation for the ordinary people in the Chaos District.
