Chapter 291: Making an Impression

Over the following weeks, every eye in the galaxy was turned at Hell. The guerilla warfare was becoming increasingly intense. As Jack leveled up, the Animal Kingdom tried not to underestimate him.

I finally found a target! the Sage said a week after they attacked the nine-person party and nearly escaped the Wardens wrath.

Everyone else jumped up at once. Lets go!

Twelve late D-Grades and six deacons were flying over the sea, chatting idly as the ones with the sharpest Dao perception scanned the waters below. This time, there was no dramatic entry on Jacks side. They instantly teleported in and unleashed their most destructive attacks.

The Animal Kingdom cultivators barely had time to react. A Meteor Punch tore through them, killing a handful, while a burning sun blossomed in their midst, making them scream. Dordok arrived just then, smashing down his steel greatclub to complete the ambush.

Half the enemy immortals were killed instantly. The remainder fought hard, but Jacks strength was now so great that they barely stood a chance. A hastily activated projection stone transmitted the scene of Jack, Shol, and Dordok annihilating an entire squadron of the Animal Kingdoms finest. The entire planet gawked once again.

At the same time, word spread out immediately, and billions of people across the galaxy flocked to their local projection centers to watch the Animal Kingdom suffer.

Two minutes after the start of the battle, the Sage appeared and shouted, We have to go!

The other three rushed to his side and teleported away right as a C-Grade eagler flew in from above, showering the area in sharp winds that decimated both the water below and the one surviving Animal Kingdom cultivator. Jack and his companions narrowly escaped.

Damn it! the eagler exclaimed, breaking the still-active projection stone as well. Damn it all!

The four warriors appeared in the underwater cave that had become their lair. What level are you now, Jack? Shol asked.

215! Jack exclaimed joyfully. He couldnt stop grinning. Im going so fast now! Were farming those guys like its nothing!

Do you think hes stronger than you now, Shol? Dordok asked playfully, to which Shol snorted.

Dont be an idiot. I was the second deacon of the Exploding Sunone of the strongest D-Grades in the galaxy. I could not lose to someone thirty levels below me.

Jack simply laughed good-naturedly.

Meanwhile, back at the planets capital, the Warden was going crazy. They did it again! he roared, flaring his nostrils. Theyre toying with us! We need to capture them!

What should we do, uncle? Maximus asked. He was personally invested in capturing Jack Rust after failing once.

What can we do? the Warden replied helplessly. Increase the patrol size even more. Reinforce every team with high-ranking deacons. Have every Enforcer on the planet join the searchwe must find them before the entire galaxy is laughing at us.

Maximuss eyes widened in shock. Youre putting C-Grades on search duty?

We dont have a damn choice, the Warden snapped back. The Grand Elder has given me full reign over these Enforcers. If I say they go on searching duty, they go on searching duty. Make it happen!

Yes, uncle, Maximus replied, teleporting away.

I guess so, Shol replied, hardening his gaze. I may have technically left the faction, but I remain a proud member of the Exploding Sun. Lets show these Animal Kingdom pricks what were made of.

Thats the spirit!

The date of Jacks duel with Li Qian came and passed. By now, any assaults they made on the Animal Kingdom forces had to be very carefully prepared. The search parties were large, and there were too many C-Grades wandering the planet. One mistake could ruin everything.

At the same time, they could not delay. Time was pressing. The duel with Li Qian could be missed, but the end of Earths grace period could not.

Over the following two weeks, the Battle Brothersthey liked the name, so they adopted it for themselvestook some risks.

One raid happened just a week after the previous one. They assaulted a search party which included the fifth-ranked deacon of the Animal Kingdom, a female sharken covered in scars. Shol held her at bay while Jack, with the assistance of Dordok, went to town on the rest of them. After killing seven immortals, Shol and the Sage grouped up with them, unleashed a barrage of attacks to make some space, and teleported away, narrowly dodging the white-robed C-Grade man who came to capture them.

The man did not say anything, nor did he grow angry. His eyes were calm and pure, as was his Dao.

After that, the Animal Kingdom grew so desperate that they commanded all search parties to stop carrying projection stones. There was no other way. Every new battle recording threw splashes of mud on their public image.

Unfortunately for them, Jack and the others had already collected a decent number of projection stones from their previous assaults. They could just record the battles themselves, then send the recordings to the Sages connections and spread them across the galaxy all the same.

Another week after the previous battle, the Battle Brothers attacked one more group. This time, the enemies were more prepared, so the battle did not go as smoothly. Dordok suffered an almost grievous injury, while Shol had an arm broken. Jack fought three deacons and nine late D-Grades at the same time, killing half of themthough the fact that he could teleport while they could not certainly helped.

They escaped in the nick of time, barely dodging the Wardens furious assault. Once again, the terrain under them was leveled, and the surviving D-Grades were sent flying away by the shockwave.

Damn it! the Warden roared again after making sure there were no projection stones around. In his six millennia of life, he had never felt so powerless before. Hed always been a proud, invincible prodigy. Nobody had ever toyed with him like Jack Rust did!

Brat! he screamed to the heavens. I will pull out every single tendon and bone in your body!

Jack did not hear thatbut if he had, he wouldnt have cared the slightest bit. The Sages teleportation brought them back to the underwater cave, where Shol and Dordok sat down to tend to their injuries. Jack could afford to take it easier, since his regeneration was extremely effective.

Most importantly, the successive battles had helped him reach Level 230. He was overflowing with power.

I think that was our best battle yet, the Sage said. I bet the recording will become a best-seller.

Are there best-sellers in the galaxy? Jack asked.

There are best sellers everywhere.

Good. The more we can harm the Animal Kingdom, the better, Jack replied, but not with his usual jovialty. His present mood was not the best. With all that was happening, the Animal Kingdom was gearing up more and more, and the chances of them successfully escaping in time were so small they might as well not exist.

And they had to hurry. Hurry a lot. Because, between all the weeks and months of this guerilla warfare, a lot of time had passed. Before he knew it, the one year deadline was almost up.

The grace period of Earth would end in exactly two weeks.
