Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns

Chapter 121: Siege and Slaughter

Shaan beamed fondly at his granddaughter and teased, "What? You heard I would betroth you to him.

My little Elsa could scarcely bear to let him go, right?"

"Grandpa, stop talking nonsense, or I would stop massaging your shoulders." Heat crept into Elsa's

cheeks. "Also, don't make any promises about my marriage without my consent anymore. No one can

arrange my marriage, including you. And...my future husband must be a real hero..."

Elsa said dreamily.

"Elsa, heroes are respectable. But most of them died miserably. An ambitious lord would be a better

choice..." Unlike the ruthless and cold warlord that the outsiders knew, Shaan was only a loving

grandfather in front of Elsa.

He breathed a sigh of regret.

In his opinion, Jacob was the best choice to take over his legacy.

Unfortunately...

"Grandpa, don't change the subject. If someone dared to be so rude to you in the past, he would have

been fed to the beasts. Why did you let Jacob off so easily? Didn't you have a fight? Why didn't he

suffer any injuries?" Elsa asked.

Shaan smiled bitterly and said, "That kid is weird!"

"He wasn't hurt was because I didn't even fight with him!"

"What?" Elsa was shocked.

When did her grandfather become so merciful?

Shaan smiled and stroke Elsa's head without explaining.

Instead, he changed the topic, "Although I let him go, he needs to walk out of the Triangle Region all by

himself..."

"Were Jeremy and Sancho killed by him? Will the Divinity Phase experts of their country come here to

kill Jacob?" Elsa was curious.

Shaan shook his head, "They are not as free as I am. As the strategic arms of their country, how could

they pick up and leave? Otherwise, they wouldn't have entrusted me to deal with Jacob."

"It's true that they can't come here personally. However, I'm not the only one in the Triangle Region who

can kill Jacob..."

Elsa understood.

...

...

"Mr. Reyes, did you fight with Mr. Khun?"

Alan was so curious and asked Jacob on their way.

Jacob shook his head.

Jacob was a man of keen observation.

When he saw Shaan, he knew Shaan suffered from internal injuries.

So bad that it almost killed this Divinity Phase expert.

Without proper treatment, Shaan would die soon.

He had at most three to five years to live.

Then he would die.

Once Shaan attacked with all his might, his condition would get worse and he might die sooner.

Jacob could kill Shaan with a single move.

But he did not do so.

If Shaan died, the Triangle Region would be in chaos.

Jacob hadn't reached the Divine Sea Realm. Before he had the divine power to move the whole spirit

spring to other places, the

Triangle Region couldn't be in chaos.

Under Shaan's control, the Triangle Region could maintain the agreement with the other five forces and

the spirit spring would be still all there, still all whole.

Therefore, Jacob showed his war face. This was the first time Shaan felt that he did not have the

confidence to kill a Semi-Divinity Phase cultivator.

Under such a circumstance, Shaan did not attack Jacob.

Instead, he wanted Jacob to be his disciple. He knew he didn't have much time left.

He wanted to find a suitable successor.

He wanted to find a man who could poise the Triangle Region and protect his family after he died.

Jacob was undoubtedly a good choice.

This was why the brutal Shaan showed his tolerance towards Jacob.

When Alan saw Jacob shaking his head, he knew Jacob didn't want to talk about it.

He took the hint and didn't ask any further.

Jacob planned to ask Alan about the secluded families.

However, before he could speak, he felt something went wrong.

Alan wondered why Jacob suddenly frowned.

A few seconds later, he felt someone was coming.

Alan was shocked.

He didn't expect that Jacob's spiritual energy was far greater than his. A few seconds ago, Jacob

already knew something was amiss.

"Mercenaries?" Alan said.

Jacob nodded.

A large number of mercenaries appeared around them.

Everything was exposed to Jacob's spiritual will. He could see that crowds of armored mercenaries and

even tanks were approaching them.

There was even a faint rumble in the air.

"Attack helicopters?"

Alan cried out in shock!

"Are they Shaan's people?"

Alan was a little startled. Who else could possess such a large-scale army in the Triangle Region other

than Shaan?

Jacob frowned slightly.

It was possible.

Yet Jacob dismissed this idea soon.

Shaan wouldn't let the outsiders know that he had internal injuries. If he wanted to kill Jacob, he had to

take action by himself.

Instead of sending out his best soldiers.

In the eyes of outsiders, Shaan could kill Jacob between his fingers. Why bother sending his troops?

Even if the army could kill Jacob who was at the Semi-Divinity Phase, they would suffer heavy

casualties. Therefore, this was completely unnecessary.

The worse Shaan's injuries were, the more impossible it was for him to do such a thing. He had to keep

this a secret.

"It shouldn't be Shaan, but no matter who dares to defy me today, he will die!"

Jacob said coldly.

The Storm Mercenary Army that he had annihilated was only a hundred-man mercenary group.

It was a shame that the force was small.

Today, Jacob was expecting a good fight.

"Mr. Dale, you can retreat first. I don't want to hurt you by accident!" Jacob said.

A hesitation flashed across Alan's face. He had invested a lot in Jacob, even includes so many

miraculous pills.

He had done so much to maintain a good friendship with Jacob. How could he retreat at this moment?

If he chickened out in the face of danger, all of his previous efforts would be in vain.

Alan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's fight together! I have your back."

After all, Alan was at the Semi-Divinity Phase. Normal bullets would not be able to pierce through his

Protective Force. As long as he was careful, with his movement technique, he would not be surrounded

or bombarded. He would be safe.

Seeing that Alan insisted, Jacob did not refuse.

Not long after, six tanks came into sight.

As well as five hundred mercenaries.

In the air, two attack helicopters were hovering.

After confirming their target, the army did not hesitate at all.

The six tanks immediately fired at Jacob.

At the same time, the helicopters attacked them from both sides.

The army sprayed their ten centimeters long, high-speed armor-piercing bullets towards Jacob and

Alan.

They blocked Jacob's path of retreat from either side.

These bullets were even more powerful than the bullets from the sniper rifles.

With only one shot, a Virtuoso could be wounded or dead.

These bullets could even threaten the cultivators at the Semi-Divinity Phase.

And now the bullets were everywhere.

On the periphery, the heavily armed soldiers were closing in on Jacob and Alan.

They shot with all kinds of weapons.

Then the shoulder-fired missiles and cannons went off.

If someone looked down from the sky, he would see a horrible scene.

Jacob and Alan were in the middle of the bombing area.

A dense cluster of bullets and cannonballs gathered towards them.

Not only that, the bombing area covered the land and the air.

Their weapons could sweep the whole area within tens of meters radius of

Jacob and Alan.

This army had the experience to deal with Semi-Divinity Phase experts.

They knew that these experts were extremely fast.

They even knew that these experts could move into the air.

As a result, they covered a large area and blocked off all escape routes. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Jacob and Alan could only be bombed inside.
