A World Worth Protecting Chapter 66: You Guys Sure Are at Having Fun
With this thought, Wang Baole inhaled deeply. He had used everything he had on this slaughter—only then did he manage to turn an unfavorable situation to the current situation.
Seeing the mosquito fly away, the possibility of the elder surviving and chasing him left him with no more time to consider his methods. That was especially so with the mosquito flying over him!
Kill! Wang Baole roared internally, his gaze turning icy. As the pills dissolved and heat flowed through him, his body erupted with strength. Pushing his speed to the limit, he ran toward the seven people.
Although his appearance would originally have been noticed immediately, the mosquito flying back had distracted the seven men who still had a lingering fear.. Wang Baole used this time to get closer to them.
"Wang Baole!" When they noticed Wang Baole, he was already within hundred feet of them. As his Pulse Enrichment cultivation exploded, he moved his body and took out his megaphone. He delivered what was the strongest and loudest sound in those ten plus years, one that surpassed anything from before.
This sound was just too loud, and Wang Baole had spared no expense to trigger it. At this point, the megaphone could no longer take it and shattered. However, the moment it shattered, an earth-shaking sound wave exploded like a typhoon, and it was even visible to the eye. It swept across everything.
Although the seven men in black were prepared, they were still too surprised to defend themselves. They were all shaken and had to pause, their brains humming.
This humming and pause were a chance for Wang Baole. His speed increased again, and he closed the hundred feet gap.
But not everyone was shaken by the sound waves. Three people had already pulled out their own Dharmic artifacts before Wang Baole took out his megaphone, and they had formed a protective barrier. While they were shaken, too, the impact was not large. Seeing Wang Baole's arrival, the three of them roared and headed straight for Wang Baole!
Two of the men were peak Pulse Enrichment that Wang Baole dreaded.
If this had happened in the past, Wang Baole definitely would have retreated and circled around them. His gaze, however, was ferocious. Not only did he not retreat, he even increased his speed. The instant before he got close, he flipped his right hand fiercely and gave a low shout.
"Capture them!"
As he spoke, Wang Baole took out seven ropes and seven puppets from his storage bracelet. These puppets were his last resort. There were male, female, and even beast puppets. When they appeared, they followed Wang Baole's orders and flew straight at the two peak Pulse Enrichment middle-aged men in black.

The men's expressions changed, and they immediately tried to block. However, there were too many puppets, and they were extremely sturdy. The puppets also used ropes to try and bind the men—this made them difficult for the men to handle. One of the men even retreated and vanished as five puppets and four ropes chased him.
The remaining man was not able to dodge. Ropes bound his legs. As he fell to the ground, two puppets wrapped around him firmly. While he struggled, the peak Pulse Enrichment middle-aged man's expression changed.
From the explosion of sound waves to the binding puppets' attack, it had all happened too quickly. Wang Baole wanted to take the chance to kill the man with his sword. He noticed, however, that the man's gaze flickered, and he held something in the palm of his hand. He looked away, ignoring the peak Pulse Enrichment middle-aged man, changed direction, and crashed into the third man in black.
This man in black spat out blood. As he abruptly retreated, Wang Baole waved his right hand. In that instant, ten flying swords appeared, each of them sharper than the last, and flew straight at the fleeing man in black.
Even as the screaming man in black took out his Dharmic artifact to block, it did not help. The swords passed straight through him without stopping. As he panted, Wang Baole headed for the other four men.
Although they had been stunned by the megaphone, in the face of danger, these pale-faced men retreated with the intention of retaliation. Wang Baole, however, waved his hand, and seven small seals smashed at them. The seals got even closer and started to explode. A seal one of the men did not dodge in time on the head, and he fell to the ground.
"Heavens! How does he have so many Dharmic artifacts? Even if he is from Ethereal Dao College's Dharmic Armament faculty, it shouldn't be like that!"
The other three men trembled. Wang Baole's Dharmic artifacts were powerful as he had used superior-grade Spirit Stones to form the Spirit Kernel cores. Their self-destruction might was nontrivial, and even if it did not hit them, it was enough to make the other three men spit blood. As they retreated, Wang Baole rushed forward. His fingers flashed purple and slashed across one man's neck.
He raised his right foot and kicked the crotch of another man. As the pained cry reverberated through the air, Wang Baole broke the wrist of the last man, directly hitting the other man's forehead, his expression terrifying. He panted roughly and looked at the trapped peak Pulse Enrichment man.

There were seven men against him, and he had already killed five of them!
In that glance, he saw that the peak Pulse Enrichment man in black who had been lying on the ground had extricated himself, albeit with some difficulty. This was because there were not enough ropes on him, and he had only been trapped by two puppets. When he looked at Wang Baole, he looked extremely shaken and relieved. He raised his hand at Wang Baole and flung the unusual pill in his hand aside.
"Wang Baole, you are indeed clever, but you have missed the best opportunity to kill me!"
Wang Baole's gaze flickered. It was true that he had previously planned to kill this man first, but the man seemed to have something in his hand. Although he could have been bluffing, if it was real, Wang Baole would have gotten entangled in it. If the four unconscious men had woken up, Wang Baole would have lost his advantage.
That was why he had given up in that moment and decided to kill the other five men first. Like this, even if he had made a wrong judgment, he still had a chance of winning this fight.
"It's not too late now!" Wang Baole's gaze was icy. He rushed toward the peak Pulse Enrichment middle-aged man. With a twist of his body, the man faced Wang Baole.
The two of them fought quickly. In the span of ten breaths, they had already clashed more than ten times. This was especially impressive as the middle-aged man in black had already cultivated to peak Pulse Enrichment and also possessed a saber Dharmic artifact. When he swung the saber, it exuded Spirit Qi, and it clashed against Wang Baole's purple sword many times.
Just as the middle-aged man had gotten used to Wang Baole's rhythm, Wang Baole's gaze flashed. The devouring seed in his body erupted, and a terrifying suction expanded from his body.
The middle-aged man in black was cunning. Although he looked like he had gotten used to the rhythm, he had been on alert the entire time as he did not dare belittle Wang Baole. Nevertheless… he had no idea that Wang Baole was actually this skilled, exceeding even the Ancient Martial realm!
After all, in this fight, all those who had experienced Wang Baole's devouring seed had died!
He did not even have time to use the methods he had prepared due to his caution. Suddenly, something dragged his entire body as his pupils grew wide. Before he could even make a sound, Wang Baole's purple sword had already shot through his throat!
Even in death, his eyes were wide open, his right hand grabbing onto Wang Baole's clothes. With unwillingness in his gaze, he fell to the ground.
Wang Baole bent down, his left hand on his knee as he panted greedily. When he took the purple sword back, he heard footsteps from behind him. He turned to look.
In the dark of the forest, the wind seemed to hold… the elder in black!
The elder's vision was red. He walked within ten feet of Wang Baole and looked at the bodies around them. After a long while, he looked at Wang Baole again, his hoarse voice reverberating lowly.
"If I had known things would turn out like this, I wouldn't have accepted this assignment. It's a pity… I can only kill you now!"
The elder raised his gloved right hand and grasped his tightly. In that instant, a whirlwind appeared around him, unbelievably strong and seeping with killing intent.
At the same time, not far from there in some low-lying grass, the other peak Pulse Enrichment middle-aged man in black was looking ahead in fear.
Around him, there were a few strands of broken string; there were five puppets on his body, three of which were large and fierce, while two were maidservants. All of them were wrapped around him expressionlessly. It appeared that unless they were damaged, they would not let go.
If it had only been that only like that, it would not have scared him. However, at that moment, black fog appeared opposite the middle-aged man. In the fog, there a was a monkey-like figure—it was a shriveled thin youth with his mouth protruding and his chin like an ape's. This youth looked like he was one with intention to betray, a capricious person that bullied the weak and feared the strong. He squatted in midair and placed his finger in front of his mouth. Shushing the middle-aged man in black, his gaze swept across the puppets.
"Be quiet. Don't disturb those fighting over there. But you guys… are quite interesting. The people of this world really know how to have fun. These puppets… not bad. Don't be afraid, relax. My malignant star masters won't let me kill people. I came here to help you…"
As he spoke, a peculiar expression appeared in his eyes, and his right hand reached out to the puppets.
Suddenly, the puppets began shaking. It was as though… something was different.

Life in Zora's Domain
An AU about Mipha's and Link's life together post Calamity. I tried to have some fun with this story, taking it in different directions, developing Mipha's and Link's family, making up some adventures, and creating some connections to other Zelda stories. But the main theme is Mipha's and Link's love for each other and building a happy life together. I'm sure I don't always succeed, but I try to keep the story light hearted and generally opt for happy outcomes.The first 2 chapters now incorporate the prequel stories 'His Future is in the Past' and 'Beginning Life in Zora's Domain', so this AU is self-contained in one story. If you've already read the prequels just jump to Chapter 1 - Studying. Cover art where available is by Nurple(twitter dot com/nurpleynurple) and used by permission. Spoiler Warning: This story has spoilers! On the other hand, if you haven't played the game this story won't make sense. This writing is a work of fan fiction using characters and events from the world of The Legend of Zelda TM: Breath of the Wild, which is owned and copyrighted by Nintendo. I do not claim any ownership of the world or its characters. It is a work of my imagination and is for entertainment only. It is not part of the official Nintendo storyline.
