Chapter 79 – Mass Extinction
The members of Scarlet Hands who were lying down on the ground smirked . They thought their opponent probably didn’t have grenade so they were just bluffing .
It’s a shame that their opponent was only three hunters . Even though they could evade the firearms attack, they struggled just to avoid it .
He was about to get up when suddenly a shadow appeared .
A strange round creature appeared in front of him .
“What the—“
Woosh!
Its long sword pierced through the member’s chest .
The same fate happened with the rest of the team .
Although most of the Scarlet Hands’ member was a double awakening hunters, they couldn’t block the puppet’s sharp blade .
Some people lied dead on the ground . The remaining members of the Scarlet Hand began to fight back .
Suddenly, another ball was thrown towards them . The balls expanded and transformed mid-air . Shortly after, the puppets rolled and landed on the ground . Their thick and powerful arms were holding a sword .
Some members who hadn’t got the time to react was suddenly penetrated by the puppets’ swords .
They panicked .
“What the hell?!”
“Shoot! Quick! Shoot them all!”
“What’s going on? It’s useless to aim their hands or feet—“
Then, screams were heard .
Basic warrior puppets weren’t strong, but they had no fear of death . As long as they could move, they would still continue attacking .
A puppet was hit by a fist but it didn’t cause much damage . The puppet’s sword sliced its attacker in half .
On the other side, a puppet was beaten into pieces . But it suddenly hugged a member and it exploded like a bomb .
In the chaotic situation, the basic warrior puppets could take down the Scarlet Hands’ member one on one, or even one to two .
The tide of war turned .
Above, Ling Minjie was stunned .
They had the situation under control a while ago . But suddenly the situation changed .
“Is there any puppets controlling ability from the collected information we investigated?”
Scar thought for a while and shook his head, “No, it’s probably their hidden trump card . But I had no idea that two of them were hunters with ability . ”
Everyone knew the value of a hunter with ability .
If the ability was of a common kind, then it would only slightly increase the combat outcome .
But both of these abilities were exceptionally good .
Lin Mingjie was envious .
“Fortunately, both of them will die here today . Otherwise, with such ability, they could became a superpowers . ”
“You two should get down . Be careful, don’t let them escape . ” Lin Mingjie said to the two Captains behind him .
The two captains nodded and immediately jumped down from the third floor .
In the middle of their jump, a silhouette flashed . One of the captain’s body burst with blood . His head lowered and fell down to the ground .
Never to rise again .
After the other captain landed on the ground, he cautiously looked around .
Soon, he saw Tang Yu coming out from an abandoned machine .
As if greeting him . Shortly, he threw another round ball .
“Haha . ” The leader of the Scarlet Hands smirked . From his observation, this puppet’s strength was not very good . His team members were killed because they let their guards down . But now, the captain was fully prepared .
He withdrew his sword and wielded it .
‘—Just have to destroy the balls before it transformed . Then it would be a junk . ’
Boom!
Beyond his expectation, the ball didn’t transform into a puppet . Instead, the ball suddenly exploded!
The captain was engulfed in flames .
Obviously, he had no idea it would be a different item .
………… . .
Above .
Lin Mingjie and Scar were both cautious .
The young man who just killed a captain in a single strike was now around them . They felt his figure approaching .
Slash!
A wound appeared in Scar’s arm .
“Boss, what should we do? This guy is too fast, we can’t catch up!”
Gray Blade entered his fighting state, his natural aura explode .
The three of them was at the same level of awakening . Moreover, it was 2 on 1 .
Lin Mingjie’s eyes were solemn .
“You must also be a hunter with an ability to increase your speed . But unfortunately, your speed is not enough because I can also—“
Between his speeches, his skin turned bronze, his entire body enlarged until his shirt exploded at once, revealing finely build muscles .
It’s his special ability .
Muscles! Also known as transformation .
Every aspect of his physical quality greatly improved .
“catch you!”
When Lin Mingje stepped on the ground, the iron floor dent . He rushed straight forward with a violent momentum .
Ordinary people would be shocked and scared to death by this oppressive momentum .
Scar could no longer keep up and just shouted, “It’s amazing how someone could force the boss’ transformation ability . ”
The two man engaged in a close combat .
They fought fiercely . Scar was dazzled .
Suddenly, Lin Mingjie was wounded . His whole body stumbled back . A deep scratch was spread along his chest .
If he wasn’t in the transformation mode, the slash wound would be enough to make him severely injured .
At that moment, fear was reflected in Lin Mingjie’s eyes .
He felt like a prey .
And his enemy was the hunter .
“With this kind of skill, you can’t be a new hunter! Who are you! I know you must be someone sent by our enemies to kill us!”
Lin Mingjie wanted to escape, but speed was Gray Blade’s advantage . If he fought him one on one, he could still withstand his attack . His confidence caused him a great loss in the battle .
His whole body was covered in wounds .
He understood that he couldn’t escape . He bit his teeth and exploded in his final form .
One last blow!
His fist aimed at Gray Blade’s waist . But before it even touched him, he saw Gray Blade’s shadow split into two figures . Both figures rushed towards him from his left and right side .
Suddenly, a dagger penetrated his heart .
He was defeated .
……… . .
Beside them, Scar saw his boss was defeated . He didn’t dare to step forward to help .
Even if their powers combined, they couldn’t beat the young man . He better took the chance to escape .
He secretly slipped from the side of the factory .
A low voice was heard .
“Freeze . ”
Chill wind came from every direction .
Scar found his movement was getting slower . He struggled hard to move . However, a long sword pierced through him .
Tang Yu withdrew his long sword . He yanked the blood from his sword .
He looked at Scar who was falling on the ground .
“This time, the rewards would be handsome . ”
………………
A few streets away from the Scarlet Hands headquarter .
Lin Wei was standing in the center of the team when one of his subordinate came to report .
“Boss, a gunfight broke along in the Industrial Road . Maybe some mercenaries were fighting . ”
Lin Wei waved his hand, “That’s not important . We should focus on more important thing . ”
Suddenly he frowned . Industrial Road…it’s a bit familiar .
He remembered .
Ming Jie once told him that his mercenary regiment had a headquarter outside the city . In one of the factory building along the Industrial Road .
“Guards and First Corps, follow me . Others, continue with your mission . ”
