Mercenary Harem in Murim Novel

Chapter 81: Chapter 81 – Vs Heartless Undertaker [2]

The name Heartless Undertaker came from his killing style where he dug corpses' hearts and brought back the dead to fight for him.

His technique wasn't something he invented. It was a lost art that Supreme Evil created. And because this person only focused on that power, his martial art capability was low.

"I can do this all day."

After saying that, Leo raised his leg and stomped his chest. The electricity gathered from his foot and electrocuted the man again.

It was a vicious cycle.

Every time Heartless Undertaker was destroyed, his body regenerated and Leo would destroy it again. The demonic martial artist Qi seeped out of his body every time his body returned to normal.

Sensing that Qi, the moving corpses around him got closer and tried to attack Leo. But he didn't need to care about them.

Crackle-

Blue electricity exploded from his body and electrocuted the moving corpses around him, burning them into crisp. The others that escaped the range were cut apart by Jack's bullets. All of them perfectly hit their hearts, destroying them and making them unable to move.

Heartless Undertaker saw it and his eyes widened in surprise. He never expected to encounter such a group.

When his head regenerated enough for him to move his mouth, he spoke.

"Who... Who are you?! You are not martial artists. But you are stronger than any martial artist I have seen. Are you some kind of demon sent from hell?"

He didn't expect to get an answer, but Leo replied, his eyes still shining blue.

"Demons sent from hell?"

He chuckled.

"Nope. We are just normal humans. We're nothing short like a demon. Don't put us on the same page as you who can hurt and massacre innocent people just for fun. Your kind is worse than any demon."

"You know nothing, human! We are fighting for the greater good. Murim's balance is broken, and the Supreme Evil's return will bring back the age of martial arts and balance the world. The world needs Master to fix it!"

Heartless Undertaker was adamant in his belief. He was sure that the Supreme Evil would bring a better world for all martial artists.

But, Leo had heard the same excuse a hundred times over.

For the greater good? He couldn't help but laugh loudly.

That was what those large corporations said. They put rules and regulations for the sake of greater good. However, that was far from the reality.

All of their rules, regulations, and taxes were created to benefit themselves, not the common people. And the people below them were oppressed, left to rot in poverty while their CEOs lived a lavish lifestyle.

At that moment, Leo's communication device rang.

"Leader, we have secured the epigraph." Shui's voice rang.

Following that, Jack spoke in a hurried manner.

"Bad news. Many people, approximately hundreds, are approaching our position. They must've been attracted by the sound of battle and that strange cloud. What should we do, Leader? Should I shoot them? Holy shit, they are fast!"

Sounds of battle shouldn't attract those martial artists too much.

If Leo had to guess, they must've connected the strange purple cloud with the opening of the gate.

And now, they were coming to investigate.

Leo sighed and replied.

"Shui, how long do you need to finish securing the epigraph?"

"A minute. Chiaki is helping me, and Coco is still guarding the entrance. I think we will be done before those guys arrive."

"Make it 30 seconds. Run as fast as possible and enhance your body with Nanites. I will hold them off with Jack."

"Yes, Leader."

There was no other way. They needed to finish the job.

With that said, Leo looked at the corpse under his feet and sighed.

'He left such a troublesome gift behind.'

The cloud must be Heartless Undertaker's last effort to drag Leo down to hell with him.

"Well, at least we're getting paid handsomely for this job."

He could only hope that he didn't regret it.

"Boss, there's another group approaching from the South. They are starting to fight each other as they approach. I don't know how many they are, but their numbers are increasing."

Leo narrowed his eyes.

'Another group? That's perfect.'

"I will go to your location now." He said, turning off the communication device.
