Chapter 1449 The Second Set of Plans
“I’ve been discovered.”
Meng Chao sensed that the bodies of all the uninvited guests around him were emitting an aura that was even more ferocious than that of the elite Turan warriors.
It was likely that the blood of this vanguard had been added with some “seasoning.” After the human body spontaneously combusts, it would emit a unique and unconcealable smell, or perhaps he had a chip implanted in his body that could monitor his physiological data in real-time.
Once his heart stopped beating, it would immediately send a signal to his companions.
He did not expect these uninvited guests to be so professional.
Meng Chao could only activate the second plan.
“Getting rid of these guys is not a problem.
“The problem is that there is no way to kill five drones at the same time. It is inevitable that they will leave their own images.
“These drones are too cunning. One of them is actually hovering hundreds of meters in the air, not moving at all, ready to escape at any time.
“Moreover, I still don’t know the identity, purpose, and the identity of the mastermind. “Judging from the guy who killed himself without any hesitation just now, the rest of the uninvited guests don’t care about their lives and the lives of others. They are cold-blooded killing machines. No matter how many people I can capture, I will only get a few piles of ashes in the end. It is impossible to dig out any clues and evidence from the ashes.
“No matter who the opponent is, the competition between us has just begun. There’s no need to expose our trump cards for the sake of a few useless troops.
“Then, we can only take a gamble.”
Before the uninvited guests surrounded him, a series of weird noises were echoing inside Meng Chao’s body.
Not only had his body size changed, but his bones and muscle fibers were twisting nonstop, too. The way he exerted his strength was completely different from his real self.
He even temporarily blocked five dragon meridians, twenty-seven main veins, and more than eight hundred branches. He changed his breathing habits and changed his fighting style from the Ultimate Style to Overkill Style.
He had just finished adjusting when ablack shadow lunged at him from behind like a cheetah covered in thorns.
With Meng Chao’s real level, of course, he could easily dodge the uninvited guest’s attack. He could even kick his opponent’s internal organs into pieces with a scorpion kick.
However, he controlled his nerve reaction, the rhythm of his organs, and even the surging of his vitality magnetic field to the standard that a heavenly state expert who was good at killing was supposed to have.
It was not until the uninvited guest quietly moved two to three meters behind him that he was “suddenly alarmed.”
It was too late for him to raise his leg and kick. He could only roll into the mud with the uninvited guest in a sorry state. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The uninvited guest was highly skilled in close combat.
His forehead, elbows, knees, and every part of his body could be turned into an invincible lethal weapon at any time.
In half a second, Meng Chao had taken seven or eight elbow and knee slams from his opponent.
He had even been hit hard on the bridge of his nose by his opponent’s hard skull.
For Meng Chao, such elbow, knee, and head slams were equivalent to using a Fascia gun to relax his muscles after a moderate-intensity daily training.
Now, however, Meng Chao was very cooperative with his opponent’s attacks. He kept contracting his muscles and tearing apart his bones, simulating the cracking sound of bones in his body, making his opponent feel the “impact of fists hitting flesh.” As a result, he misjudged Meng Chao’s combat strength. It was with great difficulty that he “scrambled” to break free from his opponent’s embrace. Meng Chao also counterattacked with the sharp blade that he had just snatched from the sharp soldier.
However, it was as if the bridge of his nose had been broken by a headbutt. Tears and mucus blurred his vision and affected his breathing, causing him to feel dizzy and lose his balance. Meng Chao’s grip on the blade and the angle of his slash were both incorrect. The tip of the blade merely cut into the uninvited guest’s skin and flesh, and it was stuck in the other party’s violently contracting muscles.
Meng Chao jerked his blade, but he was unable to pull it out. He only left a shallow wound on the other party’s skin and flesh that appeared to be shocking, but in fact, it did not affect his battle prowess at all.
Meng Chao believed that after this battle was over, his opponent would definitely carefully study every wound he left on their bodies.
This long and shallow wound, which had wasted too much strength and exposed too many flaws, would definitely make his opponent come to a conclusion: He did not know how to use a knife at all.
As expected, the uninvited guest did not waste the flaw that Meng Chao had exposed on his own initiative.
He hacked his palm at the wrist joint of Meng Chao’s right hand that was holding the knife.
Meng Chao took the initiative to detach the wrist joint. At the same time, a crisp cracking sound came from the inside of his bones as he pretended to have a dislocated and fractured joint.
When the sharp blade left his hand, he held his soft palm and let out a painful groan.
The other party took the opportunity to snatch the sharp blade away. He backhanded and stabbed at the space between his ribs, trying to cut open his lung.
Meng Chao staggered backward, but he did not notice that another uninvited guest had appeared behind him.
The other party was like an iron-armored rhinoceros with a crystal engine installed in its body. It accelerated to its maximum speed and crashed into his back brutally.
Meng Chao’s spine immediately emitted a series of cracking sounds.
Blood spurted out of his mouth, nose, eyes, and ears at the same time.
The blood was full of foam, and there was a strange sound of air leaking.
Meng Chao believed that when these uninvited guests resumed the battle, they would definitely think that his spine, nerves, and lungs had been injured by the collision.
These uninvited guests would never have guessed that they were all chess pieces that Meng Chao had calculated meticulously. Every attack of theirs was within Meng Chao’s expectations.
In fact, they were all triggered by Meng Chao’s manipulation and guidance.
Just like this incomparably fierce attack, even though it caused more serious damage to Meng Chao than scraping.
It also allowed Meng Chao to take the opportunity to fly out like a kite with a broken string. He just happened to fly out of the encirclement of seven or eight uninvited guests and landed at the lowest terrain in the valley, where the mud was the richest and was about to turn into a swamp.
Meng Chao screamed in pain as he used both his hands and feet to roll and crawl in the swamp.
It was as if he was stimulated by the desire to survive, and his last bit of vitality was stimulated.
The uninvited guests chased after them relentlessly, but they had stuck too many pieces of animal skins, horns, fangs, and sharp claws on their bodies. Many of them had even filled up a large number of airbags under their disguise. That was the only way they could expand their bodies to the level of the Turan orcs.
When they carried so many burdens and fell into the mud, their flexibility was undoubtedly greatly reduced.
Meng Chao watched as the distance between them grew farther and farther.
The crystal mine’s searchlight was before them, scanning the area back and forth.
The sniper, who had been lurking in the darkness, finally made his move.
Meng Chao felt like he was being targeted by a poisonous snake.
Strangely, the poisonous snake did not have the slightest hint of fierceness, sharpness, or hunger.
It was as if he had just eaten a delicious meal and was about to take a nap in the warm and damp nest with his round belly. He was so lazy, relaxed, and at ease.
Meng Chao’s sudden appearance, or the failure of several uninvited guests to intercept and kill him one after another, did not affect the sniper in the slightest.
He was just calmly conducting a routine shooting exercise.
But now was not the time.
‘Be patient, my friend. It’s not your turn to “strike the final blow” yet!’ Meng Chao muttered to himself in his heart.
He writhed up and down in the mud, sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes left and sometimes right. He looked like a headless housefly that did not know where to go, but he did not allow the sniper to figure out his movements and could not find the most suitable shooting angle.
It was not until he gradually climbed to the highest hill nearby that he opened his back to the sniper.
Meng Chao immediately sensed that his heart was as painful as being bitten by a poisonous snake and injected with venom.
Wait, the pain seemed to be too intense.
With the level of this sniper, he was completely capable of reaping the life of the target without releasing the slightest killing intent.
Until death’s black wings covered the target’s vision, the target would not realize that his heart had already been blown up.
Therefore, the sniper had deliberately released this extremely sharp killing intent to catch Meng Chao’s attention.
In other words, what he was really aiming at was not the heart, but the back of the head or spine.
Meng Chao thought quickly and instantly figured out the other party’s intention. “It’s not the heart, but the spine.
“While I can’t figure out the background of these uninvited guests, to them, I’m the real ‘uninvited guest.’
“They must be very curious about which cloud I came from.
“If they blow my heart up with one shot, they won’t be able to get any information out of my mouth.
“Breaking my spine and leaving me alive to ‘slowly cook’ is the best choice.”
It would be easier if he could predict the opponent’s target.
Meng Chao seemed to have no idea at all as he continued to flee on the hill.
On his back, which was hidden under the mud and his clothes, every hair on his back was spread out like a radar antenna, firmly monitoring the entire space between him and the sniper. It was to ensure that every raindrop and the trajectory of the bullet could be clearly captured.
There was no sound at all.
There were almost no ripples caused by the air being torn apart by the bullet. Even the spirit waves were completely canceled out by the runes carved on the bullet.
Atop Meng Chao’s lumbar spine, a few hairs shivered violently. A small piece of skin directly facing his lumbar spine suddenly broke into dozens of dense goosebumps.
He could almost picture everything in his mind, from the sniper concentrating, pouring spirit energy, pulling the trigger, to the crystal bullets carved with runes rapidly rotating in the barrel of the gun, to the bullets shooting out of the barrel and screaming soundlessly… He could see the entire scene of the shot.
In a direction that all the uninvited guests could not see, Meng Chao’s pupils, which had shrunk into the tips of needles, unleashed an even more intense light than a searchlight.
Every cell in his body was activated in an instant.
He not only had to dodge the crystal bullets that the sniper had already fired.
He also had to “imitate a Heaven Realm expert with the strength of a Deity Realm expert. With the stimulation of the desire to survive and the help of a little bit of luck, he narrowly avoided the fatal blow. However, he still left a wound on his body that was enough to make the other party relax!”
