Chapter 4024 Hopelessness
In the following days, Levi continued creating pills. He had been captivated by the wonders of alchemy. More importantly, the various pills crafted were excellent in their functions. Although Levi did not need them, people around him found the pills useful.
They were effective in gaining strength, treating internal injuries, boosting capabilities, and very helpful in other special areas. As long as the ingredients were complete, Levi could craft the pills by following the contents recorded in the ancient manual.
Unbeknownst to him, Wilma and the other members were infuriated by his umpteen rejections. “Levi is so full of himself. How dare he turn Ms. Myers down again and again!”
“It’s his honor to be made the Vice Chairman, but he refused the generous offer. He must have a death wish.” “We must teach him a lesson. Otherwise, he might think he’s indispensable to the Prime Association.”
The crowd was outraged, and Wilma, too, went ballistic. At the same time, she was secretly making plans to give Levi a taste of his own medicine.
Three days later, Levi went to Lightspring to catch a breather after being so engrossed in alchemy.
Luckily, the reward was plentiful.
Right then, he sensed a deep, murderous intent brewing near him.
“No matter how much the trees long for peace, the wind will never cease.”
Levi’s lips curled. Although he could not confirm the opponents’ background, he was quite certain that they were most likely from the Cordierite Association.
I can totally understand why the Cordierite Association is reacting this way. I’ve killed so many of their men. It’s impossible for them to settle with the compensation and do absolutely nothing, isn’t it?
Levi purposely walked toward the secluded area and entered an abandoned manor.
“You’ve been following me for a while now. Hurry up and show yourselves!”
Hmm?
The assassins were surprised that Levi had called them out. They were good at hiding and had never thought that they would be exposed so easily.
Clearly, this dude was playing us when he led us into an abandoned manor.
“Get rid of him!” a stern voice instructed.
Immediately, several silhouettes appeared from various directions and leaped into the manor.
Levi turned his head only to be greeted by men in all types of attire. About ten of them wore robes with a skull embroidered on their tunics.
“Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to see the assassins from Skull Mire! This guy must be something else.”
“Isn’t it good? Saves us some trouble.”
Murmurs arose from the crowd.
Chuckling, Levi asked, “Are the assassins from Skull Mire great?”
As soon as he finished his question, Levi vanished from his spot.
“Watch out!” one of the assassins from Skull Mire alerted.
Unfortunately, his warning was a few seconds late. Alarm bells rang in the assassin’s head.
Bam!
Before the assassin could shriek in pain, blood gushed out from his mouth, and he died on the spot.
“This one is not easy to deal with. Come on. Let’s charge forward together!”
The team from Skull Mire attempted to besiege Levin in unison. However, what happened next made the bounty hunters’ jaws drop.
Levi weaved through them in a flash, taking a single life with every move he made.
“That’s it? The assassins from Skull Mire are this weak?”
“It’s not that they are weak, but their opponent is too strong.”
“Let’s launch an attack, or else no one can escape unscathed.”
Even though the fighters came from different organizations, they understood the meaning behind the saying, “United we stand, divided we fall.”
No matter how lucrative the paycheck was, one needed to stay alive to enjoy the fruit of one’s labor. Otherwise, everything would be just a dream.
Now that the bounty hunters had a chance to tackle Levi head-on, they finally realized how horrifying their predicament was.
There seemed to be a divine aura on Levi, a super powerful one that made everyone feel completely hopeless.
A strong sense of hopelessness and anguish engulfed them because they knew they could never defeat Levi.
With immeasurable energy and devastating force, Levi decimated all the assassins in the blink of an eye.
Upon getting rid of them, he arched his brow as he sensed an aura approaching him.
He swiftly dodged the attack and hid in the ruined living room.
