Meanwhile, Alex and the others had arrived at their destination. He had yet to summon his spirits as he was planning to sneak in first.
Surprisingly, Stina suddenly stopped him by sending a thought transmission. "Master, I feel danger inside."
"What do you mean?" Alex stared at the brothel, halting his footsteps. He pondered for a while before activating his Spirit Eyes, checking whatever inside that could make her uncomfortable. Stina had a sharp intuition for this kind of thing after living for so long, so he believed this.
He was taken aback by what he saw inside. Although he could only see it in the form of energy, he could see a 2-Star Martial Emperor sitting on a couch and having someone suck his pen*s.
The surprise came from the actual woman who actually sucked it. Judging from her energy, she was a 6-Star Martial Emperor, which should be the elder that took charge of this place.
According to their behavior, the woman looked very obedient, piquing Alex's interest. He thought, 'The brothel is not open yet, but there is a customer already? Does this person have a special identity?'
He tried to look around the building, scanning each corner with his Spirit Eyes until he found three people having the cultivation of 9-Star Martial Emperors, making Alex hesitate even to move.
'This…' Alex muttered to himself, wondering who these people were. They should have come to this place with the person in the front, but he did not know how long they were going to stay in this place and their identities.
He took a step back, before recalling one matter. Two days ago, one of the N squad stationed inside the Joyful Union Sect reported that the eldest brother of this sect was likely staying inside one of the brothels.
Noticing this situation, Alex decided to go outside first, discussing it with his spirits. He walked away and teleported before summoning them.
"I am sure you know our situation…" Alex said, calling Sherry, Kyle, and Stina out. "I forgot about this matter since we thought it was a false alarm… And many things to be considered."
"Alright. Leave it for later, what we need to discuss is how we want to deal with the enemies here." Anna stopped him, pressing the matter on hand.
"Yeah." He smiled. "Since they have no plan in backing down and even sent reinforcements, we will kill them as this is a good opportunity to strike them."
"Indeed. Still, three 9-Star, one 6-Star, and we need to be wary against the City Lord of this city." Anna pondered with a serious expression before saying, "I can't think a single thing."
Alex closed his eyes, running through a simulation inside his mind. After half an hour, he opened his eyes, looking at Stina. "Can you take one 9-Star?"
"I can, with this wand." Stina nodded, showing the Fire God's scepter.
"How about if you need to take on another 7-Star Martial Emperor?"
"Hmm…" She pondered for a moment before nodding her head in confidence. "If it is to buy time, I absolutely can. As for killing them, it will depend on our condition."
"Nah. It is only for precaution." Alex shook his head. "I think it is time to get serious."
"Are you going to trap them inside?" Anna realized his plan and asked.
"Yeah. I am going to use my Extended World Array, the barrier array to make the special realm to trap them inside. It should be enough to stop the city lord while we kill them. If they somehow break it, then Stina will stop them."
"Ah, I see." Stina nodded. "Though we need a quite big space to fight those strong people."
"Yeah. I will take care of that… I won't make a sphere this time but a full sky. You can take the fight to the sky while the area is still around the brothel's size." Alex nodded, assuring them.
"So, how is the arrangement?" Anna asked.
"Stina will take one of the 9-Star." Alex then turned to Jeanne, "You will get two of them, can you do it?"
"Is it to buy time or to kill them?"
"Kill them."
She pondered for a while. "May I request to use my True Spirit Body?"
"Granted. We are hiding after today anyway." Alex nodded.
"Alright. I should kill them." She smirked.
"I will take on their young lord or something while Anna… No, I think Artur will fight the elder with your True Spirit Body. Anna will also use her True Spirit Body to make up for our disadvantage by having these three focused on their respective opponents."
"Understood." Anna and Artur replied.
"I will make the array first before sneaking in. I will just use the Gathering Array and Spirit Gems for the fuel so that I can fight that so-called eldest senior brother. The others will stick to kill the rest."
"Understood."
"..." Alex suddenly noticed that Leoz was sitting far away with a sad expression. He frowned and asked him, "What is it, Leoz? Is my plan not suited to your taste?"
"No no… That's not it, Young Master." Leoz shook his head furiously. "It… It's just…"
"Hahahaha…" Anna laughed, realizing what happened. She explained, "Usually, Leoz is your main fighter and fights your strongest opponent. Unfortunately, he can only sit back at this one. I think this is why he is sad. Truly Ridiculous… Hahaha…"
Leoz looked away, embarrassed, making others chuckle.
"Well, you will have your fill in the war a few months later. So, just be patient." Alex sighed.
"Yes, I understand." Leoz bowed his head, looking down to avoid anyone from making fun of him.
"Alright. Time to go back."
They nodded, going back inside of his body.
Alex approached the city again, walking through all the procedures before arriving at the brothel. He took out a bottle from his Inventory, opening the lid and controlling the blood to create many symbols around the building.
He even sealed his power for the moment, afraid of being found out. Hundreds of symbols were produced in a few seconds. Alex's movement was fast and precise, finishing the array in two minutes.
Luckily, the establishment itself was grand as the building had its own space, giving Alex's enough room to create this array without anyone noticing. After that, he teleported himself inside to the area without any signs of people.
"Teleportation."
He checked his surroundings as soon as he appeared inside the room before summoning all his spirits and contracted beasts. "They have yet to notice us. Let's go."
Alex led them through the corridor, arriving at the main hall where they found many people. It would seem other than the leaders, this so-called Eldest Senior Brother also preyed in others.
"Who are you?" The elders stood up. Two of them were old men, while the other one was a middle-aged woman. "Fifth Elder!"
"Enemy Attack!" One of the old men shouted, releasing all his Spiritual Energy to warn the others. Even the 6-Star Martial Emperor woman stopped and rose from her position, taking out her weapon.
Alex and the others already took out their weapons, striking at those who should be struck. Stina immediately stopped the female elder from helping while Jeanne stared at the two old men.
"Young Lord Raku, please go back behind me." The 6-Star elder stepped forward only to see Artur in front of her. "Who are you people? Daring to intrude the Joyful Union Sect branch."
"Kill the men and strip those women." Raku snorted, noticing that they would win with power level alone. Besides, the women had good bodies, it would be a waste to kill them before tasting them first. In fact, he was planning to suck their energy die before killing them.
At this time, Jeanne smiled as lightning sparked around her body. "True Spirit Body, Ethereal Lightning Form."
"!!!" Noticing the spark of power, the two elders swiftly took out their weapons, striking her.
Jeanne used both of her short swords to block this. She smiled. "Ethereal Lightning Body First Charge, Spark."
The swords channeled her lightning, causing a little explosion on the tip of her swords.
The explosions forced the elder to retreat a few steps, giving her precious time. She raised her hands toward each of them, shooting out a powerful lightning strike.
"Ethereal Lightning Body Second Charge, Bullet."
"Bam!" The two elders struck at the lightning, destroying it. However, they looked at their swords, noticing how much power in that strike.
"..." They exchanged looks as they were surprised to see an 8-Star Martial Emperor would carry that much power.
"Fufu… You two are my prey." Jeanne smiled behind her mask.
"Attack her together!" They came to a conclusion to kill her first, ignoring Raku's order.
At the same time, Stina also locked her full energy to the fifth elder. She took out her wand, raising her hand and creating a fire lotus above her. "Fire Lotus, First Petal. Fire of Supreme Phoenix."
A petal flew toward her, carrying intense heat.
"!!!" The fifth elder quickly noticed this and shouted, "Be prepared!"
She took out her spear and created a little barrier on the tip, thrusting it toward the fireball.
"Boom!"
It immediately exploded, but surprisingly, the explosion only went toward her side, destroying a part of the brothel.
"..."
Stina smiled, "You are going to be my opponent."
The fifth elder glanced at Raku, who was protected by a new elder, feeling it would be alright since her opponent was a 5-Star Martial Emperor.
At this time, Artur raised his sword before getting enveloped by white light. The sword released a powerful light as he said, "True Spirit Body. Heroic Knight Form."
A small rectangular appeared in the center of his eyes, filling it with intense white light. If one stared at him, they would feel intense pressure, weakening them a little bit.
A knight's full armor appeared, covering his entire body. The only thing others could see was the intense white rectangular in his eyes, making him look ominous.
He raised his swords before slashing downwards, creating a white sword wave.
"!!!" The elder stepped in, striking the strike with her sword. "Dual Joy Slash!"
"Kh…" The elder finally realized how powerful the strike was after receiving it. She was pushed a few steps back, stopping right in front of Raku. Could not let Raku get hit by something like this, she shifted her stance, deflecting it to the side.
"I shall fight you with my sword." Artur pointed his sword toward her.
The other spirits also started attacking the rest of the disciples. Seeing this situation, Anna also started by raising her scythe.
"True Spirit Body, Dark Butterfly Spirit."
A pair of butterfly wings appeared on her back, entrancing everyone with its beauty.
Before anyone noticed, he walked toward the center of the brothel, placing his hand on the ground. "Activate."
The ground shone as many symbols appeared, covering the ground and wall. A barrier appeared, making him smile. "Stina."
"Yes." She nodded and sent out another petal. However, this time it went toward Raku instead of the fifth elder.
"Array Master!" The fifth elder instantly appeared in front of Raku, creating a huge shield to protect him from the blast.
"Boom!"
After experiencing the explosion, she turned back, asking, "Raku, leave this place right away. I don't know who they are, but they are strong."
"You think I will let him go?" Alex's sound echoed in her ears as he slipped, charging at Raku, who also took out his sword.
Alex already knew this Raku as he was the one who stopped him in that particular city, saying it because he did not catch his woman.
The fifth elder wanted to strike at him, but Stina appeared right beside her, grabbing her hand and throwing her to the air.
"Who are you?!" He glared at the masked Alex as he did not recognize him as he had changed his mask.
"Just a person who wants to kill you." Alex shrugged, thinking, 'It seems I would do that girl a favor by killing this person.'
With this, each of them had their respective opponents.
Alex versus Raku
Stina versus Fifth Elder
Artur versus The Branch's elder
Jeanne versus two old men
Alex shouted with killing intent. "Kill them all."
