Chapter 607: Alix and the captain vs Afaro.
The screams and alarms started going off just as Alix was finishing her poison distribution. She had not yet neutralized Afaro and his guards, which was a deliberate move on her part. The captain needed to work out some of his aggression while she wanted to test out the strength of the guards and Afaro personally.
Because of the noise, it became noticeable that a lot of people in the stadium were no longer moving, they were as stiff as corpses with the exception of their eyes which were roaming around in fear.
The previously loud stadium was now filled with an eerie silence as they became alerted to a looming danger. Those that had not been paralyzed by the poison resorted to screaming and running which made them easy targets for the soldiers who shot them with bullets that paralyzed them as well.
At least Alix’s poison was painless, the one coated on the bullets was more deadly, and the infected parties were howling in pain.
Afaro’s guards surrounded him, meanwhile, protecting him as if he was such a precious fragile item that could not be harmed.
Their weapons pointed outward as they looked around nervously. It was not their plan to move if they did not set their eyes on the attackers lest they head directly into the danger.
"Who dares to trespass in my territory?" Afaro yelled out.
He unleashed some of his power and the sea trembled, shaking the town as a wave of water swept through. It bounced back against an energy shield which Alix had recently acquired from the prison dungeon.
She smiled cunningly when she saw the shock on Afaro’s face. Without access to a great deal of water, he was not the god of the sea but the god of a small stream.
