Chapter 78
Chapter 78 – Overpowered?
At the forefront, Luo Qiu was surrounded by lightning . He moved very fast .
Obviously, his strength was only at a triple-awakening master . But his speed was faster than most of the high masters in Lindong shelter .
Behind him, Gray Blade had descended on the ground . His robe fluttered and following closely .
Behind them, the second group consisted of Tang Yu and Elaine was chasing close .
At first, Tang Yu felt he wasn’t fast enough . After seeing Luo Qio had almost disappeared from his view, he contemplated and used the one-time acceleration scroll .
A mysterious force blessed his body .
In an instant, his whole body felt light, like fluttering in the air .
He was delighted .
This was the benefit of being rich . Spirit stones were omnipotent .
The third group chased behind . Zhou Jianhong, Chen Sheng and other hunters also wanted to catch up and observe the situation .
Or maybe they could help . The worst case was they could only watch .
Suddenly, something felt amiss .
“Why do I feel like we’re getting farther behind?”
Zhou Jianhong shouted while running very hard .
Chen Sheng snorted . He suddenly blasted his force, advancing forward from Zhou Jianhong and the rest of the group .
Just when he thought he could be closer, in front of him, Luo Qiu and Gray Blade already disappeared from his view . Even the gap between him and Tangy Yu’s group wasn’t decreasing but instead he was left behind even farther . They also disappeared from his view .
Chen Sheng’s expression darkened .
……… . .
“Hhaaaa“Luo Qiu gasped for breath . He felt his energy waning .
But when he looked back behind him, he still saw the figure was still chasing him .
Particularly, he already felt the spirit power in him was almost drained . He could no longer maintain his former speed, but the figure chasing him still maintained a high speed .
“How could he run so fast? I put all my strength into this run . Even the leader and vice leader couldn’t catch up with me, but how could that man run so fast?!”
“That’s impossible . Could he also have acceleration ability?”
“And why these people had such a high endurance?!”
He gritted his teeth .
Suddenly, an abandoned factory was seen in the horizon .
“I’m coming!” Luo Qiu still had hope . He squeezed what’s left of his spirit power and exploded again, dashed towards the factory .
“Boss, help me—“ Luo Qiu shouted, he felt relieved after he reached the Scarlet Hands’ headquarter .
He’s saved .
Now, Luo Qiu really wanted to see how his pursuer’s expression would be after discovering he was led straight into Scarlet Hands’ headquarter .
He was going to turn around when suddenly…
There was a sharp pain in his chest . He froze before he realized that a flying dagger was buried deep in him . The dagger stabbed his heart all the way from his back, piercing his chest . The tip of the blade was cold .
“But how…” Luo Qiu’s eyes widened . He found out his pursuer had finally got him . His pursuer still maintained the posture when he threw the flying dagger .
He was unwilling, but his whole body fell to the front . He gradually lost his consciousness .
The last thing he heard was an angry roar from above .

Lin Xiujie’s eye almost burst from anger .
His most precious member was killed in front of him!
He didn’t care about the seventh team’s demise, but he was distressed after Luo Qiu’s death .
Although Luo Qiu wasn’t the strongest among them, but he was unbelievably loyal and he possessed a useful ability . Under his wing, Luo Qiu could be the third leader, or even the vice leader . But he was killed by an unknown figure .
“Kill him!”
Lin Mingjie grabbed a machine gun beside him and stood . He fired wildly .
Gray Blade blinked, he hid behind an abandoned machine . The bullet hit the machine’s steel material . The gunfire’s sound clashed with metal echoed throughout the factory .
At that time, Tang Yu and Elain finally caught up .
Initially, Lin Mingjie didn’t recognize Gray Blade . But after he saw Tang Yu, he immediately recognized him . They were the three hunters whom they were looking for!
Hatred and angered rushed in his blood . Lin Mingjie went even angrier .
“Bring me their heads! Don’t let them escape!”
The Scarlet Hands members rushed out at the command . They held various firearms and began shooting .
Countless bullets kept coming towards Tang Yu’s direction . The gunshot sound echoed throughout the abandoned factory building .
Gray Blade used his dagger to block the bullets . But he couldn’t possibly block that many bullets .
“My Lord, what should we do? It seems like we just entered the demon’s lair . ”
Several members of the Scarlet Hands approached slowly . Each of them was holding a gun .
They were trying to get to the other side of the machine .
In the other side, Tang Yu and his team were still suppressed by the constant rain of bullets .
“I’ll do it . ”

Elaine held her staff and concentrated .
At the next moment, cold cloud storm rolled out among the approaching Scarlet Hands members . The falling snow turned into sharp ice blades .
Spell – Ice storm!
The people screamed as they were drowned in the ice storm .
Lin Mingjie frowned . Elaine’s ice storm made him anxious .
After contemplating, he yelled at his members below, “Her ability is limited in a certain area and they’re far from us now . Continue firing . ”
The vice leader, Scar, stood beside him, “It seems like they’re not as weak as we thought, no wonder the seventh team perished . However, they made a huge mistake by coming here . ”
“Hm… I’m not sure if it’s a good thing or not, but I won’t control myself . ”
Scar shook his head .
Below, the members of Scarlet Hand no longer dared to approach the three hunters . They continued firing and some others pulled a grenade and threw it to Tang Yu’s location .
“Bye!”
Tang Yu and his team quickly moved to another machine . The grenade exploded with a loud bang in the place where they just stood .
He felt a headache .
There were too many of them and they had the terrain advantage . They occupied the high ground . Even though Tang Yu’s team could do some damage, their enemy still had the absolute advantage .
For now, they couldn’t win against the Scarlet Hand .
Even if they escaped, their opponent had already seen their faces .
Tang Yu looked at the open factory door behind him .
They could escape and the Scarlet Hands couldn’t stop them . Their best option was to retreat for now and came back later with a solution . They could find a way to lurk into the factory and take them down individually .

Tang Yu was stunned after a sudden realization .
He couldn’t stand this defeat!
Why should he retreat?
Tang Yu opened his space backpack in searching for an item that could be useful .
Small sealing scroll .
Pass!
+Defensive blessing scroll .
Pass!
Energy bomb .
That’s not what he was looking for .
Detection lens… he didn’t need it .
Tang Yu kept searching his backpack and suddenly his eyes brightened . His gaze fixed on a pile of small balls .
[Unopened Basic Warrior Puppet]
Tang Yu asked Elaine to condense an ice mirror . He observed for a while and threw the small ball at a certain directions .
Round balls flew out .
A member of Scarlet Hand noticed and panicked, “Look out! They threw grenades! Get down!”
Several people that were standing near the ball’s landing point wildly ran in panic . They lied down on the ground and waited for a while . But the awaited sound of explosion never happened .
“They tricked us?”
He thought in silent, but soon found out a shadow behind him .
