Chapter 624 The fated day (5)
?As soon as Lin Fan said this, the eyes of half of the guards suddenly glazed over.
It was as if they had suddenly gone into a trance.
Elder Wang and the fourth master had stopped and raised their guards just in case something happened, but they didn't see anything happen at first.
So they had just relaxed their guards when...
The guards that had glazed over eyes suddenly turned and raised their spears to attack the guards that didn't have glazed over eyes.
This was half of the guards that were here, this was over two hundred people who suddenly attacked.
There were a few guards that were able to react in time and raise their spears to block them, but most of the guards were completely caught off guard and were stabbed by these spears.
In an instant, about 40% of all the guards that the Lin Family Manor had were incapacitated.
The remaining 10% that could still fight were completely surrounded and in no time at all, they were stabbed by the spears of the other guards.
Both Elder Wang and the fourth master were shocked when they saw this, but then the fourth master came back to his senses to roar, "What do you think you're doing?!"
None of the guards reacted when he said this as they focused on taking down the remaining guards that didn't have glazed eyes.
Once all of those guards were lying on the ground, the guards that were still standing turned to look at the fourth master and Elder Wang.
Seeing all of these guards looking at them, both the fourth master and Elder Wang felt a chill run down their spine. They felt as if something bad was about to happen, so they couldn't help taking a step back.
Though Elder Wang and the fourth master weren't afraid if the guards did what they thought they would do, it was still very difficult for them to handle that situation.
After all, these were guards that the Lin Family had raised over the years.
Each guard that was killed meant a loss for the Lin Family since they would be losing all of the resources that they had spent to train these guards.
Death was the end of all things.
The fourth master steeled his face and said in a commanding voice, "Stop and drop your weapons this instant! If you don't, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
He was trying to put pressure on these guards to force them to stop, but that didn't work at all.
All of the guards just faced the two of them and raised their weapons as they stood in a line.
With the glazed over look in their eyes, it was almost as if they were puppets that had no free will at all.
Puppets...
That was right, these people were indeed puppets, though Elder Wang and the fourth master didn't know this.
This was one of the things that Lin Fan had the Control Toad do over the past few days.
He didn't want to knock these guards out since he wanted to use them as cannon fodder against Lin Fan. After all, Lin Fan was just too mysterious that he didn't dare fight him with just Elder Wang.
However, now it didn't seem like he had a choice.
Once he received this confirmation from the fourth master, Elder Wang suddenly brought his hand down.
When he did, there was a large wall of wind that fell down on the guards that were in front of him.
This wall of wind should have smashed these guards into the ground.
Should have, but it didn't in the end because Elder Wang suddenly felt a sense of danger coming from in front of him.
When he felt this sensation of danger, Elder Wang quickly released the wall of wind and dodged to the side.
But he had reacted to this too slowly.
He felt a chill coming from his arm along with a bit of pain.
There was a bit of blood that came out of the wound that had been inflicted on his arm and there was a bit of frost that appeared around the wound.
Elder Wang looked down at the wound that appeared on his arm before looking around to see what had inflicted it, but he couldn't see it at all.
The fourth master however suddenly said, "Elder Wang, watch out for his icicles!"
When Elder Wang heard this, he was confused at first. But then he remembered the scene that he had seen earlier with the fourth master. When he did, he turned to look at Lin Fan who was standing there with a casual look on his face.
But he saw that one of the icicles that he had gathered before was missing.
Elder Wang immediately knitted his brows when he saw this, deducing what had happened.
After only a moment of hesitation, Elder Wang suddenly said, "Fourth master, I don't think I can hold back anymore."
The fourth master had a grim look on his face when he heard this, but he slowly gave a nod and said, "Just do what you can. If you think it's necessary, then do what you must."
Elder Wang gave a nod before saying, "Thank you, fourth master."
Once he received the go ahead from the fourth master, Elder Wang no longer held back.
The wind gathered once more, but this time they formed blades of wind around Elder Wang.
Previously, he had been holding back to try and save the guards.
But now that he felt the threat that came from Lin Fan, he no longer planned on holding back.
If the guards died, then they died.
For Elder Wang, the lives of these guards definitely wasn't worth him risking his life.
The lives of the guards were not even close to having the same value as his life.
With a wave of his hand, the wind blades flew forward.
As he waved his hand and sent the wind blades out, Elder Wang also said, "It's your own fault for falling for the enemy's tricks. I'll send you on your way now."
