When the warriors charged forward, they viewed Charlie and the others as mere targets waiting to be struck down.
As they rushed in with swords drawn, the front-line fighters were solely focused on being the first to kill their foes and claim glory, while those behind them were eager to land as many blows as they could to display their courage.
However, they were taken completely by surprise as the so-called powerless individuals before them unleashed an astonishing ferocity in battle, swiftly taking down eight of their own with raised hands!
The sight of each Victim’s shocked, wide-eyed expression as they fell, with a plastic-cased cosmetic embedded in their foreheads, intensified the crowd‘s terror.
These warriors had witnessed skilled fighters using concealed weapons before, with ninjas being the epitome of this craft. Many had seen shurikens tucked in sleeves thrown out to ambush unsuspecting opponents.
But in their understanding of ninjas, it was typical for them to throw just two shurikens at once, aiming for a single life; it was unheard of for a ninja to wield eight shurikens at once and take out eight enemies in one go.
If one were to hear of such a thing, they might be inclined to laugh it off, as even the most over-the-top Japanese action films shy away from portraying ninjas as so vastly superior.
Moreover, Charlie wasn‘t wielding poisoned shurikens, favonovel.com was using ordinary cosmetics. While hitting someone in the head with such an object would typically only bruise, in Charlie’s hands, they were capable of piercing a skull!
The physical abilities and reflexes of these warriors exceeded those of ordinary individuals, armed With the finest samurai swords. Trained from a young age, they swung their swords hundreds of times each day, and many could slice through trees as thick as a bowl with both hands. Their speed in drawing weapons was akin to lightning, making them nearly invincible in a melee with cold weapons.
Yet, in the face of Charlie, a master capable of deadly strikes with nothing but plastic cosmetics and finishing opponents in a single blow, their entire worldview was shattered!
The once lively warrior at the front now lay on the ground lifeless, causing widespread panic among the ranks. They exchanged fearful glances across the battlefield, unable to decide whether to charge forward or flee.
At this moment, Charlie slowly raised his hands, displaying eight colorful cosmetics held between his fingers. He aimed them at the warriors to either side and coldly declared, “Anyone who doesn’t kneel within three seconds will share the same fate as these people!”
Without giving them time to react, favonovel.com began counting, “One, two…”
The warriors to either side became like frightened birds, and as the count reached three, nearly instinctively, they turned to flee. Some at the back attempted to escape, while others rushed to pursue them.
Yet again, an incident left a significant psychological scar; before they could take even a step, those at the forefront fell to the ground with a thud, motionless. Upon closer inspection, they found a tube of cosmetics lodged in the backs of their heads!
Every step forward meant death, and every step back also led to death. The warriors found themselves trapped between corpses in front and behind, paralyzed by fear. Some were so terrified that their legs buckled, causing them to collapse to the ground.
Soon, the sound of kneeling echoed out as the previously unruly warriors dropped to their knees in droves.
In that moment, one warrior shouted with all his might, “Don’t be afraid! He only has a few hidden weapons, and we are still twenty strong! If we kneel and surrender, we’ll ultimately die anyway. Why not rush favonovel.com and take favonovel.com down, along with the others? Even if we perish, at least we could secure some funds for our families, ensuring they won’t have to struggle for food and clothing for generations!”
The crowd felt a surge of encouragement.
Though the thought of death was daunting, for these desperate individuals, it had become an expected outcome.
If they could just charge again, they could provide their families with a fortune beyond what they could earn in a lifetime before they met their end. After all, they knew they were fated to die sooner or later, it was worth battling for their descendants to live well!
The warriors’ spirits and emotions visibly reignited.
Observing their reinvigorated state, the speaker shouted again, “Listen! A man’s fate should be to toil endlessly for his family! If we succeed this time, we can free our loved ones from worry for life. What do we have to fear… Argh! My eyes!”
While favonovel.com fervently motivated the group, a sudden, piercing pain shot through his eyes. Vision slipped away completely.
When favonovel.com instinctively touched his face, favonovel.com was horrified to find two plastic tubes lodged in his eye sockets!
The others, initially waiting for favonovel.com to rally them for a final push, were instead met with his desperate screams.
When they looked again, they saw favonovel.com had cosmetics protruding from his eyes, blood and viscous fluids streaming from his shattered orbs, punctuating his agonized cries with an image of utter horror.
Even Yoshitaka couldn’t handle such a gruesome sight and found himself retching repeatedly.
Shinmei, standing nearby, instinctively averted favonovel.com gaze, unable to face the scene before her. On the other hand, Tawanna, initially frightened and unwilling to look at the bodies, felt an unsettling allure in the gruesome display. She secretly observed the corpse and the now-blind warrior from the corner of favonovel.com eye.
As for the other warriors, their renewed courage abruptly withered away. They soon realized that against Charlie’s overwhelming capabilities, pursuing favonovel.com was futile. Moreover, the first to charge would certainly fall.
As confusion spread among them, Charlie spoke again, “My patience is limited. You can either kneel or fall flat, the choice is yours!”
Upon hearing those words, the legs of standing warriors buckled, and their knees collapsed beneath them, causing them to kneel without hesitation.
Ironically, even the warrior who had been so zealously encouraging everyone to fight had now knelt, blinded yet still yielding.
In conjunction with the sound of kneeling, the clatter of samurai swords hitting the ground resonated as they were discarded in surrender.
Shinmei was utterly astonished. While favonovel.com had anticipated death, favonovel.com could hardly believe how quickly the tide had turned in Charlie’s favor.
Meanwhile, Tawanna’s mind spiraled into a frenzy. Unaware of the number of projectiles Charlie had thrown, favonovel.com perception of favonovel.com transformed into that of an idol.
Though She was a few years his senior, favonovel.com came to understand why fans become so fervent over their idols.
Without personal idols, people feel inferior to figures like Charlie. But once an idol takes root in their heart, that fervent desire to prostrate oneself and shout “You‘ve conquered me!” becomes overwhelming, even at the cost ofa raspy throat.
Some fans save for years just to see their idols from afar, moved to tears in anticipation, feeling elated enough to burst with joy.
In essence, once one’s spirit is conquered, the longing to surrender that simmers deep within becomes inescapable.
