Chapter 834: Chapter 188: The Might of the Human-shaped Soul Tool _2
What a pity.
Ideals are plump, reality is bony.
When the human-shaped soul guidance devices pulled out more than ten soul cannons, they were like being under a freeze spell.
About ten people, each one targeted by a soul cannon. And those two commander-level figures were being targeted by seventh-level fixed soul guidance cannons.
They felt their hair stand on end, and sweat on their foreheads.
"Is that the fixed soul guidance cannon?"
"What are you panicking for, the accuracy of this thing is touching, as long as you are fast enough, it can't hit you. Everyone, charge together!"
After a brief moment of stun, a look of joy suddenly came across the commander's face.
So it was the fixed soul guidance cannon.
Then I'm not afraid.
This thing is mighty powerful in sieges and large-scale wars.
But when dealing with powerful individuals alone, it's not so effective.
Not to mention.
If it can't hit the target, what's the use of its great power?
However.
The next moment, they suddenly realized they were too optimistic.
The nearly ten cannons erupted with light at the same time.
The soul cannonballs that shot out made them feel there was no escape!
Completely anticipating their predictions.
"How the hell can a human do this?"
The pupils of the commanders contracted suddenly, and their hearts raised to their throats.
All they could do was resist with all their might.
The fixed soul guidance cannons that Qin Xiao used this time were not of the conventional type with wide blast range and large area of effect.
But ones that he had developed himself, with strong armor-piercing shells.
The main feature was their strong penetrating power and high single-target damage.
Bang bang bang bang...
Clouds of blood mist exploded one after another.
In an instant, more than ten black-clothed people were left with only two who could barely stand.
And they were the strongest, two commanders, who were also Soul Douluo level experts.
However, both were already at the end of their strength.
They both had conspicuous wounds on their chest.
Their organs were no longer visible, pulverized by the formidable power.
Hanging on to their last breath, they struggled to survive.
"I didn't feel any strong soul power fluctuation from you. How could you unleash such ferocious attacks?"
One of the two spoke up.
A voice suddenly echoed in their minds: "If I'm not mistaken, you must be from the Xingluo Empire, under the orders of Dai Hao, right?"
"Why don't you talk directly to us instead of using a sound transmission method?" the commander asked with doubt, sneering, "Don't expect to get any information from me. Just think about who you have offended. Really, too many people want you dead."
"Heh, still acting at a time like this? Even if you don't tell me, I already know. After all, the accent of the Xingluo Empire can't be faked.
Rest assured, I will send your bodies back to the army camp, though stripped bare,"
Qin Xiao conveyed with a cold laugh.
"A warrior can be killed but not humiliated, you won't succeed!"
The two commanders exchanged glances, seeing the look of determination in each other's eyes.
Without a doubt, they both intended to use their last breath to destroy their bodies.
"Heh, it seems I guessed right. Then you can be on your way."
Qin Xiao's voice suddenly rang out.
He had already gathered enough information from the eyes of the two.
It was Dai Hao who had sent these people.
Another two soul cannons were activated, blasting the bodies of the two commanders to pieces in an instant.
"Dai Hao, since your intent to kill me won't die, then you should die first,"
Qin Xiao's mind was filled with murderous intent.
All along, Dai Hao had been an insignificant character in his eyes.
The Duke of the Xingluo Empire, with a formidable name, second only to one, above ten thousand, yet he had never taken him seriously.
But such a minor character, still jumping up and down, is like a toad that doesn't bite but annoys nonetheless.
"Huo Yuhao, I've decided. I'll eliminate Dai Hao first, as a form of repayment for using your body."
Alone in the laboratory, Qin Xiao muttered to himself before stepping outside.
First, he stored the Human-shaped Soul Guidance Device, and then he quietly waited right where he was.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
After a short while, one figure after another landed at the entrance to the laboratory.
"Qin Xiao, are you alright?"
They were the guards from the academy.
Originally, Jing Hongchen had arranged for many people to ensure his safety.
However, after creating the Human-shaped Soul Guidance Device, he had persuaded those people to leave.
To him, some Level 6 and Level 7 Soul Masters made no significant difference in his safety.
And having too many people around was too conspicuous.
"I'm fine. Some people tried to attack me, but Xuan Ziwen dealt with them."
Qin Xiao did not divulge the existence of the Human-shaped Soul Guidance Device to them.
He also did not reveal what he was truly capable of.
Those attackers were right about one thing; there were many aiming for him.
Apart from a few people he trusted, he could not easily expose his strength.
"Does Qin Xiao know who dares causing trouble in our Imperial Sun Moon Soul Academy?"
Just then, a voice rose from behind the crowd.
People instinctively made way, revealing Jing Hongchen striding forward, his face flushed with anger and barely containing his fury.
It was clear he had pent-up anger with no outlet.
"This..."
Qin Xiao hesitated for a moment.
Jing Hongchen quickly caught on. He waved at everyone and said, "You all go back for now. Don't come here without my summons."
Relief washed over everyone upon hearing this.
They had already sensed that the dean's mood was far from good and had been contemplating an exit.
Now that the dean spoke, he addressed exactly what was on their minds.
They all wished they could grow extra legs to run away, quickly leaving the place.
"This bunch of incompetents is only good at causing more trouble than help."
Jing Hongchen huffed in annoyance, then turned to Qin Xiao and asked, "Who are those mysterious fellows exactly?"
"The Duke Bai Hu's subordinates from the Xingluo Empire..."
Qin Xiao said only that.
"Dai Hao, it's actually him!"
Jing Hongchen's pupils shrank in surprise.
But his heart relaxed against his will.
After all, to some stubborn individuals, Qin Xiao's identity was quite precarious and could potentially bring unexpected trouble to the Empire, while the Crown Prince and others had ambiguous attitudes towards Qin Xiao and simply couldn't bear to get rid of him.
He thought it had been some radical ministers from the Empire, preparing to take Qin Xiao out.
"So it was Dai Hao who sent people here, that's not too bad..."
"Hm?" Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow, not pleased.
Was that supposed to be a comforting statement?
"What grudge do we have, that you would curse me like this?" he couldn't help but retort.
Jing Hongchen's expression changed, slightly embarrassed, "What did I just say? You must have heard wrong."
"No matter, I'll repeat it for you now. I was saying that Dai Hao has really gone too far, reaching his hands into our Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Guidance Academy, thinking we have no one here?"You can rest assured, I'll see to it that justice is served on your behalf. Right now, I'll go straight into the imperial palace and lay the matter out to the Empire, requesting the Crown Prince to dispatch a large army to strike against him!"
Qin Xiao frowned slightly, asking indifferently, "What do you think are the chances of success for bringing this up?"
Jing Hongchen looked somewhat embarrassed, "Well... given the current situation, it might be less than ten percent... The Empire is preparing for a major move, currently strategizing and plotting."
Qin Xiao stepped in front of Jing Hongchen and gently patted his shoulder, "No need for that, I'll take care of this on my own."
"How do you plan on dealing with it?" Jing Hongchen asked, puzzled.
"Of course by killing Dai Hao directly. To solve a problem, it's best to get rid of the person creating it, don't you agree?" Qin Xiao blinked.
Jing Hongchen was stunned upon hearing this, "You're not thinking of facing him alone, are you?"
"Congratulations, you've guessed it..." Qin Xiao smiled faintly.
Jing Hongchen found Qin Xiao's idea to be unrealistic, "That's impossible. We've sent many to assassinate him without success. How could you possibly do it?"
Qin Xiao explained, "That's because you have no means to get close to him, but I'm different..."
