Overgeared

Grid’s fist slammed into the middle-aged man’s face, and Laurel cried out in surprise. Grid withdrew his hand and tilted his head to the side. The man’s face looked like a dented pot.

“Why is he so weak?”

“How can a man not wearing any armor withstand Your Majesty’s fist?”

“Kraugel said they regenerate quickly even when their body is cut into pieces.”

“The regeneration power seems to vary greatly depending on the techniques they know and the treasures they have.”

“There are also items...”

Grid nodded and examined the chains that bound the middle-aged man’s limbs.

“You have taken away all his belongings, but you can’t detain him in the usual manner?”

“Yes. He used a technique called Soil Release to hide under the ground like a mole. We had a hard time catching him again. Right now, Braham’s magic chains have sealed away his spiritual power so he can’t pull off the same thing again.”

“You can interfere in spiritual power using magic... There are many tactics to deal with them. So what is his rank?”

Grid’s eyes were cold as he glanced at the middle-aged man. The prisoner was a maniacal outsider who dared to kill three civilians and fifty-one soldiers in the heart of Reinhardt. Fortunately, the nearby players had stepped in and put a stop to his massacre. Had they stayed on the sidelines and did nothing, there could have been a lot more casualties.

Grid wanted to kill this person right that very second.

“A raid team of over eighty people and a party of nine with an average level of 400 was almost wiped out by him alone, right? Does he have the rank of a Great Person? Or is he a Saint?”

“U... Uh...”

“Can he not speak?”

“That might be because all his teeth were ripped out.”

“Tsk.”

Grid poured a potion on the middle-aged man’s face, who quickly recovered. He looked around in shock.

“I can’t believe that potion can exert such excellent medicinal properties even though I didn’t ingest it and turned it into spiritual energy...!”

“Talk in a way I can understand.”

“Gasp! Ah, that... The medicine that us cultivators use are usually in the form of a round pill. We have to swallow them so they can be effective. In order to obtain medicinal effects, we need to use spiritual energy to gradually dissolve the medicine in our bodies... The red liquid given by the elder is commendable because it has medicinal properties without any complicated processes.”

“So what is your rank?”

“...If you are asking me about my degree of cultivation, it is foundation building.”

“What the hell is that?”

“Ah! You don’t seem to know that much about cultivators! Allow me to explain. A cultivator is someone who accumulates cultivation in order to attain the great dao. The realms of cultivation are divided into qi refining, foundation building, core formation, nascent soul, and soul transformation.”
