Chapter 1089: Accept the Mark, Or Die
Recently, You Mingyu had been chasing information on the mark of a slave. The information network of the Heavenly Network existed because of the large overseas organizations. But now, You Mingyu had to adjust his deployment and strategy, as the Heavenly Network’s enemy had changed!
It was not that the large organizations could be friendly and not guard themselves against one another. In the present situation, even if these organizations were a threat, the Heavenly Network did not have to pay much attention to them.
The Heavenly Network’s true enemy was the slave owners who had secretly come from the Luniverse, as well as the mastermind behind this.
But when You Mingyu saw the four Practitioners charging towards him, he grew tense. How were they so savage? Since when had he been targeted?
From the looks of things, these Practitioners were North American Practitioners who had been turned into slaves. The slave owner had not appeared. Wait. One of the slaves looked familiar. He seemed like a member of the Phoenix Society!
When the Luniverse turned its attention to the Earth, even a top-notch organization like the Phoenix Society could not escape. It was also very difficult for them to protect their own members.
Once the mark of a slave was forced upon someone, they would completely lose their freedom.
You Mingyu held the purple blade and clashed with the four slaves. Before he could think of a solution, a train suddenly pulled into Franklin station.
The train doors opened. The white lights in the train illuminated the dim station. There were only a few people in the train, all of whom had just ended work. They saw You Mingyu and the rest. Then, their first reaction was to find a place to hide, and secretly observe.
There were many cases of slaves killing people in North America. These slaves did not seem to have any aim in killing these people. They spontaneously killed whoever they wanted to kill, and left after they were done.
This caused the ordinary people to panic when they saw the news. In the past, they were worried that Metahumans would lose control and attack ordinary people. However, it seemed as if they could live in harmony with one another in the past. They did not know what happened recently. Some Metahumans seemed to have gone craxy and started to murder people.
The relationship between ordinary people and Metahumans had returned to square one. The news reported on this without restraint, but very few people knew that this was a true crisis.
This time, they had to face a true demon.
Ordinary folk were treated as ants in the Luniverse. The rigid hierarchy was like a cage. The Practitioners at the top would not treat those below them as humans.
The train doors closed very quickly. The train was about to travel to the next stop, but the four slaves took action. A metal-type Metahuman instantly controlled all the metal parts in the station and aimed them at You Mingyu, including the train.
The passengers in the train screamed in fear. They were afraid that they would be involved in the conflict between Practitioners. The train accelerated. They could only pray that they would be able to leave as quickly as possible!
After tonight’s incident, they might not dare to take a train for the rest of their lives!
The train suddenly flew out, as if it had been pulled along by someone. Countless metal parts flew towards You Mingyu like bullets.
But something unexpected happened. Suddenly, You Mingyu’s body went soft. It was as if his entire body had escaped the gravity of the Earth. His body contorted into mysterious poses, allowing him to dodge the wave of metal parts!
If Lu Shu was there, he would have been able to recognize this. It was the unusual body trick from the Collection of Gods!
Lu Shu had experienced the unusual body trick from the Collection of Gods many times. Furthermore, before You Mingyu had returned to China, he had been hiding in the Collection of Gods. While he acted as a famous international assassin, he hid in the Collection of Gods. He was caught by an informant and had to retreat. In the end, he was replaced by Lu Shu.
He had not wasted his time in the Collection of Gods. He learned the training techniques of the Collection of Gods, including the unusual body trick.
The four Metahuman slaves were all Class C’s. They were very strong.
But they did not expect You Mingyu to possess the speed of a Class B. He was even faster than a Class B.
This attack had come suddenly, but strength was the foundation of a Practitioner when they faced any danger.
Even if four Class C’s worked together seamlessly, they would not be able to kill a Class B!
In the blink of an eye, You Mingyu stood in front of two Metahumans. The blade in his hand was like a purple thunderbolt that flashed past, drawing blood from their necks!
Instant kill!
The two people behind You Mingyu had arrived. The temperature in the small station suddenly rose. You Mingyu could even smell his hair burning due to the high temperature. There was a fire-type Metahuman!
He hurled the blade at the fire-type Metahuman, piercing through his neck. The enemy did not even have the time to react.
The next moment, the blade flew back, piercing through the fourth slave!
But when the purple blade returned to You Mingyu’s hands, someone suddenly fell from the ceiling. He was even faster than You Mingyu!
If You Mingyu had displayed the strength of a peak Class B, this person was slightly faster than him!
The person caught the purple blade before You Mingyu. Then, he reached You Mingyu’s neck. It was a middle-aged man. He smiled. “Your strength is not bad. I didn’t expect to meet such a strong slave this late. Accept the mark, or die.”
Suddenly, the middle-aged man placed his finger on the back of You Mingyu’s hand. You Mingyu seemed to have sensed something. He felt something being added to his willpower, which might cause him to lose his freedom!
It was complete! The middle-aged man broke into a smile. Although he had lost four slaves, obtaining You Mingyu gave him a pleasant surprise!
Suddenly, he felt pain in his chest. He looked at the blood that had appeared at the edges of his mouth with disbelief. “How are you able to attack me?”
The middle-aged man saw that You Mingyu’s expression was twisted, as if he was enduring extreme pain. Of course, the middle-aged man understood that he was using his willpower to get rid of the pain from the mark of a slave. You Mingyu was able to immediately eliminate the mark of the slave just after accepting it!
He could not understand what had happened. He only knew that he had experienced something very strange. He had guessed that they would be involved in a major battle, but as he was from the Luniverse, he had much more experience in war. He had expected the enemy to give up without resistance.
But he did not expect the enemy to be able to escape the mark of a slave. This was a surprise!
You Mingyu suddenly gritted his teeth and said, “How refreshing!”
The middle-aged man was confused.
Then, he died.
When You Mingyu encountered this group of people, he could not conceal his happiness!
He was never afraid of the pain that the mark of a slave would bring!
