Chapter 1679 Getting Hurt


    "Grey, what happened?" Seeing the restless expression on Grey''s face, Rocky instantly knew that


    something bad must have happened.


    "There''re people over there who want to monopolize the houses that the Godly Genius built for us!"


    Grey said as he panted.


    "What? Who would be so bold to do that?" Rocky replied as his eyes grew rather cold.


    "I actually don''t know who they are because they are not from our slum. However, they wear the same


    ragged clothes as us, so we suspect that they are bandits from other ces..." Grey said hesitantly as


    he shook his head.


    "Bandits, huh?" Rocky''s eyes narrowed the moment he heard this.


    "Yes. They take advantage of poor people just like us. Most of them are also from poor families that


    can''t make a living. Then, they form groups to bully weaker people and collect so-called protection


    fees," Grey answered in a gloomy tone.


    "Well, doesn''t anyone try to subdue and punish them for their crimes?" Rocky asked as he crossed his


    arms on his chest, letting out a frown.


    "No. Those bandits usually don''t stay long in one ce. They just charge protection fees and then


    eventually leave. Most of them are rather vicious, so even the city guards that are in charge of the


    security in the Ghost Capital don''t try to interfere with their business. Well, what can you expect? We


    are just poor people, so no one really cares about our lives. In fact, a few groups of bandits have


    alreadye to our slum before..." Grey recounted in a depressed voice.


    "So, this time, they must have heard that the Godly Genius has built these houses for you. That''s why


    they intend to upy them." Knowing the attitude of these kinds of people, Rocky could already guess


    what they were up to.


    "Yes, I think so too. Right now, the people from our slum are confronting those bandits at the


    intersection. However, there are only very few strong people among us. Unlike them, they even have


    some spirit warriors that could easily trample over us," Grey uttered through gritted teeth.


    "I see. Come on, and lead me to them!" Knowing the situation, Rocky would not stand by and just do


    nothing about it. So, he immediately rushed to the area together with Grey.


    As they arrived at the intersection, he saw some people from the slum confronting a group of fierce


    bandits who held sticks, knives, and even forks. On the other hand, most of the people from the slum


    were just old men and women, and no one was really strong enough to resist the bandits. If they


    continued fighting these savage men, they might end up being seriously injured or killed.


    At the same time, the bandits seemed to be growing impatient. A bald man standing in front of them


    suddenly shouted, "If you don''t want to die, get out of our way! Otherwise, I will have no choice but to


    kill each of you!"


    Although the people from the slum were generally weak, they were so determined not to let the bandits


    upy the houses that were built for them.


    Therefore, even if they were threatened, they had no intention of giving in.


    "You guys are really asking for it! Don''t me me for what will happen next!" The bald man fumed in


    anger and ordered his men to break in.


    Immediately after, the bandits behind the bald man swarmed and rushed towards the people from the


    slum.


    At the same time, Rocky was a bit surprised to see that even if the people from the slum were being


    suppressed, they were still aggressive and their morale remained high. Hence, he immediately rushed


    over and said, "Everyone, go ahead and fight with all your might. I will do my best to protect you!" Right


    after saying this, he took advantage of the people''s morale and activated the Army-blessing Scroll to


    protect and empower them using the spiritual power.


    The moment the people realized that Rocky was with them, their confidence grew higher.


    In an instant, a fierce fight broke out between the two sides.


    Soon enough, the bandits recognized that the seemingly weak and disabled people from before had

    somehow be skilled in fighting and it was as if they had be invulnerable. No matter how hard


    they pushed through, they were unable to hurt and disperse these people.


    In less than half an hour, the bandits, who were supposed to be more powerful, were forced to retreat


    in an embarrassing fashion.


    At the same time, the people from the slum were also confused. They did not understand how they


    became powerful enough to defeat the bandits.


    Seeing this, the bald man, who was the leader of the bandits, finally snapped. He did not expect the


    people from the slum to be so formidable. Hence, he decided to take things into his own hands. All of a


    sudden, he emitted an aura that wasparable to that of a Spiritual King. He seemed to be even


    more powerful than Brett.


    "Topple the mountains and overturn the seas!" The bald man took a deep breath and suddenly


    released a wave of spiritual power. It surged out like a raging wave that instantly surged towards the


    people from the slum.


    Realizing that the bald man wasn''t just a weak person, Rocky was worried that the people might be


    seriously injured. Thus, he quickly urged them to retreat in order to avoid the attack of the bald man.


    Unfortunately, some of them were not fast enough, so they were wounded in the process.


    When they saw that the people from the slum were already repelled, the bandits swarmed up again


    and rushed to the newly built houses.


    Of course, Rocky would not let them seed in their evil ns. Thus, he immediately opened the


    Magic Spiritual Space and summoned Uriah.


    Currently, Uriah had thebat power of an ordinary spirit warrior at the Spirit Realm. Therefore,


    under Rocky''s guidance, it quickly rushed towards the bandits to suppress and kill them.


    Seeing the ferocious spiritual beast, the bandits were shaken to their core. After all, most of them were


    just ordinary people. Although a few of them had some spiritual power, they were not powerful enough


    to be real spirit warriors. Therefore, before Uriah, they were effortlessly ughtered.


    Realizing that they would not be able to defeat the spiritual beast, the bandits fled in all directions.


    It was not until then that the bald man actually noticed that Rocky had summoned Uriah. As his


    expression became more savage, he red at Rocky and wondered who he was, and why he could


    summon a spiritual beast. Logically speaking, a person of his caliber should not be wandering in the


    slum.


    However, the bald man also noticed that Uriah was not as strong as a Spiritual King. Hence, it should


    not be a threat to him at all. Therefore, he nned to kill the spiritual beast first before taking on Rocky.


    Unfortunately for him, his thoughts were already within Rocky''s expectation. Hence, before he could


    even make a move, Rocky suddenly appeared in front of him. In fact, the only reason why Rocky


    summoned Uriah was that he wanted it to deal with the bandits and protect the people from the slum.


    At the same time, he would be able to focus on dealing with the bald man himself.


    Judging from the spiritual power that the bald man unleashed earlier, Rocky could not simply


    underestimate him. Although he knew that the bald man was not as strong as him, he found it strange


    that this man was just a mere bandit. Therefore, he spected that these bandits were not ordinary


    ones, and there might be a force that was backing them up. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them


    to do whatever they wanted in a city like the Ghost Capital.


    Although Rocky did not know the entire truth, he would not let the people of the slum get hurt.
