Chapter 286: A show of force
Wick was speechless when he saw Wapol's expression. He was sold out and still helped others count money. With such an IQ, he still wanted to be a king. No wonder he made a mess of the country and was finally driven out of the country. His palace and throne were occupied by others. He deserved it!
"Jace, Cromalimon, go and give this guy a try and see if he has the strength to chase away the pirates. Don't tell me he's just a fake that Dalton found somewhere. If he cries after being beaten by you, he'll have to ask his mother to comfort him. Hahaha!"
Wapol was still madly testing the edge of death. His father asked him to come to greet the hero, and he came up to give the hero a show of power.
The two henchmen, Jace and Kromalimon, were also very willing to do this, as they were the ones who instigated Wapol.
They could see that Dalton was not in a good situation, and the best thing would be to break Dalton's boasting and influence the king's trust in him. It was really that the information Dalton reported to the king was too fantastic, and the means shown by Vic were somewhat incredible. They didn't believe it was true at all.
When Dalton heard what Wapol said, his face changed drastically and he turned into a minotaur and stood in front of Vic.
Even made him cry? Said such insulting words? If this angered Vic, even the three of them including Wapol would not be able to survive.
He had seen Vic's decisiveness. He killed people without blinking and without any emotional fluctuations.
He didn't believe that someone like Vic would care about the prince of a small country. No matter how high his status was, he was just a stranger. However, he looked back and saw that Vic didn't look angry, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dalton! Get out of the way! Or I'll hit you too!"
Seeing Dalton standing in front of Vic, Wapol was very angry. He was just a retainer, but he went against him again and again. If his father didn't trust this man very much, he would have sent people to arrest Dalton and put him in jail.
"Dalton! Get out of the way! Don't worry, I won't kill them."
Vic spoke calmly. Such ants could not shake his emotions at all. Who would bother with squeaking ants? If he got tired of the noise, he could step on them. However, Vic needed to ask the king for help now, so it was naturally impossible for him to kill his beloved son.
Dalton was relieved after hearing what Vic said. He stood in front of Vic not to protect Vic, but to protect the three ignorant people opposite.
He was completely relieved when he knew that Vic had no intention of killing. It would be good to teach a prince like Wapol a lesson, so that he would not be arrogant and get into trouble in the future. Dalton changed back into human form and walked aside.
"You ugly fellow! You still dare to speak so brazenly even now. You need Dalton's protection. You are still so stubborn. Jace, Cromalimon, come on! What are you still standing there for!"
Wapol was very dissatisfied when he heard what Vic said. It seemed like alms to him. As a prince, he had never been insulted like this before.
Jace and Cromalimon had already pressed towards Vic after Dalton left, but Wapol still thought they were too slow. He himself had no strength at all and had no idea that he needed to be cautious in battle.
Cromalimon was the first to take action. He was a person with special abilities. The hair on his body could grow and separate infinitely. Moreover, the separated hair balls carried strong static electricity and could be attached to people's clothes.
To be honest, it has no power, it's just flammable and disgusting. Cro-Malimon quickly pulled some hair balls from his explosive head and threw them at Vic, his hands moving non-stop as if he was launching hair ball cannonballs.
But all the fur balls penetrated Vic's body, fell on the snow behind Vic, and continued to roll forward, wrapping around the snow on the ground and finally turning into big snowballs.
Cromalimon's eyes narrowed when he saw this. He already knew that Vic was no simple person and suspected that Vic was also a person with special abilities. Although he was alert in his heart, his hands kept moving. The snowballs behind Vic kept piling up, but Vic's standing body was spotless.
Seeing that Cromalimon's ability didn't work, Jace quickly took out the bow and arrow behind him. He was an excellent archer, and in the past, he used Cromalimon's static hair ball to burn people and repel enemies.
It's just that the ball of fur is useless today, but the damage of his bow and arrow is still not low. After a few arrows were shot, the arrows also penetrated Vic's body and flew away.
Vic was clearly standing there motionless, but the attacks of the two men had no impact on him at all. This situation was completely beyond their understanding, and they could only think of the magical power of the devil fruit.
Dalton was also amazed. Although he had seen Vic's simple moves before, he could not figure out what he was doing.
He didn't know how much strength Vic had displayed at that time, but seeing the pirate's lack of resistance, he guessed that Vic had used up most of his strength, and the rest should be on the knife at his waist.
But he still couldn't understand Vic's current performance. Vic's moves were things he had never seen before.
Wapol was also confused by his two lackeys. Didn't they work well together before? They were more and more powerful in bullying the good people, but now they are no match for the man who is suspected of defeating the pirates?
You can't even touch a person, and you still say you are the strongest two heroes in the Magnetic Drum Kingdom? Wapol still can't see how powerful Vic is. He is only in the sixth grade of elementary school. He only knows that whoever can stand at the end will be the winner. The one lying on the ground will definitely not win.
In fact, Vic was moving left and right at an extremely high speed, but his speed exceeded the perception of ordinary people's eyes. Even an animal-type ability user like Dalton could not perceive Vic's movement.
It’s just that Vic always returned to his original position in the same posture every time, so it looked like he was standing there without moving.
If you focus on the snow on both sides of Vic, you can see the snow where Vic's footprints were left, which is the proof that Vic was moving.
Seeing that long-range attack had no effect, Cromalimon prepared for close combat. The boxing gloves were not worn for nothing. He was a boxing master. He and Jace, one was good at close combat and the other was good at long-range attack. They were the king's right-hand bodyguards assigned to Wapol.
Cro-Malimon rushed towards Vic, but Vic didn't want to continue to tangle with the two of them. It was a waste of time. He still wanted to fight in close combat? That was really giving him face.
Vic's right foot quickly drew an arc in front of him, and the snowflakes on the ground were lifted up by Vic's incredibly fast speed. Although the snowflakes were light and scattered, with the blessing of Vic's speed, the power of the snowflakes was greater than that of bullets.
Not only Cromalimon, even Jace who was farther away was hit by the snowflakes. The two of them looked like they were hit hard by a punch. Blood flowed from the corners of their mouths. Their bodies flew backwards uncontrollably and both fell on their backs on the snow.
The two looked at Vic in shock. They were not ignorant kids like Wapol. To make the light snowflakes produce such power was by no means just reaching the speed of sound.
