Chapter 169: Return to the Capital (1)
The energy surged and poured into the sword.
Chen Yu’s longsword swept across!
Shua!
A bloody scar immediately split open from the nose of the lizard beast.
“Roar!”
The beast cried out in pain and jumped up high, its sharp claws waving like a windmill.
“Retreat!”
With Chen Yu’s order, the three of them decisively spread out in a triangle.
Boom!
The asphalt pavement that the three people were standing on was instantly torn apart by beasts.
“What the hell are you doing?!” Zhang Tie became furious.
“All the exotic beasts have come out. Don’t let them rush into the building facing the street.” Chen Yu shouted loudly.
“Hurry up and leave! It’s too dangerous!”
Chen Yu forced back a rabbit-like exotic beast with one sword strike as he raised his voice, “What’s the danger? Are you going to help me or not? If not, scram!”
Zhang Tie: “…”
Watching Chen Yu jumping around the exotic beast, Zhang Tie fiercely stomped his foot.
Bang!
The ground cracked.
“This father only knows that there’s no one in the Elite Class who can be at ease.”
After swearing, Zhang Tie burst out his Qi and rushed into the battle. With a straight punch, he directly sent the exotic beast, which weighed dozens of tons, flying away.
Boom!
The exotic beast fell down, causing the ground to shake.
After opening fire, Duan Ye didn’t forget to make a hand gesture. “66666…”
“Six your balls! Get away from me, you mage.” Zhang Tie kicked another one away, “If you really can’t do it, find a high point and throw a grenade.”
“A real fighter dares to fight.” Duan Ye imitated Chen Yu’s words as he crazily released the bullets that boosted his Qi towards the front. “Run to the back and throw a bomb? That’s a fighting landlord.”
“…”
Zhang Tie felt that he was going to explode.
Puchi!
Zhang Tie stabbed his long sword straight into the abdomen of a mutated beast. Chen Yu then teleported away. “These mutated beasts are all above Level 2. Pay attention to your safety. The fastest one is that lizard. Duan Ye, stay away from him.”
“Okay.”
Duan Ye nodded as he retreated over 10 m. at the same time, he suddenly put his palms together and mobilized his Qi to create a high-temperature fireball in front of him. Closely after that, he changed a pair of magazines and aimed at the front. After that, he fired several rounds.
Bang, bang, bang, bang…
The whistling bullets penetrated through the fireball and ignited the special bullet.
After colliding with the skin of the exotic beasts, these burning bullets fiercely exploded!
Boom, boom, boom…
The 4 exotic beasts who wanted to escape from the left and right sides were forced to retreat.
“One bullet is 320. Brother Tie, remember to reimburse me.”
Zhang Tie was dealing with the most exotic beasts in the central region. He had no time to recover.
Besides the 3 people, Bahuang Yao was walking on the edge of the battlefield. As she observed the situation, she would stab towards Zhang Tie with her dagger from time to time.
Facing a Level 2 exotic beast, she could not fight it head-on like Chen Yu and Zhang Tie, nor could she use Duan Ye’s long-range attack. Therefore, she could only keep moving around and look for opportunities.
However, she was the first one to notice the abnormal situation.
“Brother Tie! The ground is shaking! Something came out of the hotel!”
Zhang tie became spirited as he immediately retreated.
“Roar…”
At the next moment, a huge monster drilled out of the ground and swallowed the exotic beast that was still fighting Zhang Tie.
Kacha… Kacha…
Accompanied by a biting sound, the exotic beast that was at least 15 m long disappeared from the mouth of the ‘huge beast’.
“At least Level 3…” Zhang Tie’s eyes turned solemn, “or Level 4 exotic beast.”
Wuwuwu–
At this moment, police vehicles finally arrived and hundreds of police officers jumped off.
“Team B, go around from the back! Go, go, go!”
A police officer in charge of commanding shouted several times on the walkie-talkie before looking at Zhang Tie. “What’s your profession?”
“Assistant.”
“Please give us a set of blessing.”
“Fine.” Zhang Tie mobilized his huge strength and released a set of group blessing within one second.
Chen Yu dodged away from the range of blessing and shouted at the police officer, “It’s not for fighters to evacuate the residents! It’s for fighters to surround this place.”
The leading police officer was slightly stunned. He thought for a moment, then nodded. He picked up the walkie-talkie and issued the order.
Looking at the group of mutated beasts that were being shrunk, Chen Yu gestured to Duan Ye and Bahuang Yao and summoned the two of them. “Do you see that lizard?”
“I see it.” Bahuang Yao nodded.
“Now, we don’t need to worry about the problem of the beast’s spread. It’s too fast. Let’s kill it first.”
After saying that, Chen Yu’s energy burst forth. His body transformed into a shooting star as he held his sword and charged at the lizard beast at the forefront.
“Pa!”
Duan Ye pressed his palms together and circulated his energy. He roared, “Close your eyes!”
The people nearby subconsciously closed their eyes.
“Martial Art — Flash!”
A ball of light immediately appeared above the lizard beast’s head, and then exploded soundlessly.
The strong light pierced the head of the beast.
[Temporary Vision +64%]
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Yu decisively brandished his long sword, aiming at the thick neck of the beast and slashing down.
Shua!
A light flashed past.
The long sword that was augmented with the space slicer was like a knife cutting through tofu, easily cutting off half of the neck of the beast.
“Roar–”
The lizard beast roared, and large amounts of blood spurted out from its arteries.
Then, without waiting for the beast’s claws to swing over, Bahuang Yao accurately seized the opportunity. With a few nimble leaps, she directly drilled into the open wound.
“Martial Technique — Bahuang Secret Technique — Tremor!”
The enormous force that erupted, along with a terrifying frequency of vibration, flowed through the spinal cord into the beast’s brain.
Bang!
In the next moment, the beast’s two eyeballs suddenly exploded, spewing out red and white brain fluid.
Rumble…
The huge corpse fell to the ground with a loud crash, crushing many trees.
The police officers: “…”
“They… they’re freshmen?” The deputy next to a police car stuttered.
“…” After half a second of silence, the police officer took off his police cap. “They’re freshmen from Beijing University.”
After saying that, he threw off his cap and unleashed his Level 3 strength, charging into the battle. “Assault team, all go!”
“Yes!”
Dozens of Level 2 martial artists charged out one after another.
…
Puchi.
Drilling out from the flesh and blood, Bahuang Yao shook off the blood on her body like a cat. She looked at Chen Yu and Duan Ye, who were staring at the dog in a daze. “Where are you? What happened?”
“Nothing… Nothing. Pay attention to the biggest exotic beast in the middle. Leave it to Brother Tie. Don’t go near it.”
“Got it.” ×2
Nodding, Chen Yu raised his long sword, “Next is the second one, that dog…”
Boom!
Rumble…
“Roar…”
Outside the chaotic battlefield, troop carriers arrived one after another to provide support.
As long as their Qi level was above 2, they would charge in ferociously.
“Move out of the middle!”
After several rounds of fighting, Zhang Tie roughly figured out the physical condition of the huge beast. As the No. 1 Battle Force in the battlefield, Zhang Tie issued an order.
The police officer near the center immediately retreated.
Pah!
Putting his palms together, Zhang Tie tried his best to rotate his huge Qi sea and arrange hundreds of Qi into a complex matrix.
“Martial Art —— Curse —— Bad Luck!”
“Here it comes!”
Hearing the keyword ‘curse’, Chen Yu’s eyes lit up. He didn’t even need to insert his sword into the back door of the exotic beast; instead, he directly teleported and stuck onto the back of the huge beast in the center.
Shua!
A bright light enveloped the giant exotic beast and Chen Yu.
[Cursed: Temporary Agility +58%; Temporary Strength +60%; Temporary Reaction Force +47%; Temporary Explosive Force +55%; Temporary Constitution +46%; Temporary Metabolism +72%; Temporary Cell Activity +43%…]
Chen Yu: “Oh~”
Feeling the surging power circulating in his body, Chen Yu rolled his eyes.
Closely after that, in the next second.
Pah!
[Qi and Blood +3427]
The weakened exotic beast waved its tail angrily and directly sent Chen Yu flying away.
Zhang Tie who was floating in the air frowned. “What’s that ‘whoosh’?”
As it was very dark, he didn’t see it too clearly. However, he didn’t take it to heart as he ordered the whole scene loudly, “This is a Level 4 exotic beast. Its weakness is limited. Don’t come up below Level 2.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he and the two Level 3 police officers rushed up and launched an attack. They wanted to stop this ‘behemoth’ from interfering with the battle situation around them.
Sou–
On the other side, Chen Yu was rolling and flying. He was directly photographed from the ’92’ hotel to a residential building two hundred meters away.
Crash–
The window shattered, and Chen Yu fell heavily into the sofa in the living room.
He penetrated the sofa and smashed a big hole in the floor.
“Cough…”
“Cough, cough…”
Chen Yu spat out large mouthfuls of blood. He endured the pain and crawled up. He looked up and was stunned.
He saw a couple eating noodles on both sides of the coffee table in front of the sofa.
Chen Yu: “…”
The couple: “…”
Chen Yu: “…”
The couple: “…”
“It’s the end of the world outside, and you’re still eating?”
The man: “…”
The woman: “I’m not hungry…”
“Let’s go!” Chen Yu flipped the table over. “Run back and avoid the tall buildings. The further the better.”
“Oh, oh, oh…”
The couple got up and ran away in panic.
Chen Yu spat out another mouthful of blood. He casually picked up a piece of sofa cloth and wiped it clean. He struggled to get up, but he realized that his left leg was already broken.
Then, a sharp pain pierced through his heart.
Chen Yu: “F*ck…”
He sat down on the ground, grabbed his thigh tightly, and began to straighten his bones while cursing.
[Injured: Qi and Blood +664]
[Qi and Blood +542]
[Bone Health +231]
[Qi and Blood +508…]
After the thigh bones were fixed, Chen Yu checked his entire body and repaired the remaining parts of his bones. Only then did he stand up in a lively manner.
Walking to the window, he looked out at the white-hot battle outside the building. Just as he was about to jump down, he caught a glimpse of a familiar object from the corner of his eye.
After a long silence, Chen Yu reached out and picked up the string of things.
It was a necklace.
At the end of the necklace, there was a pocket watch hanging.
“Fight for… fairness.”
Reading the words on the dial, Chen Yu turned his head and glanced at the bowls and chopsticks on the ground. Then he looked at the seemingly endless city skyline in front of him. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
After a long time.
Chen Yu took a deep breath, threw down the necklace, and watched it fall into the dark abyss.
Then, he bent his legs and jumped into it.
Whoosh–
A strong wind blew in his face.
Chen Yu was in mid-air. He was pulled by gravity to accelerate his descent.
He moved his waist to stabilize his balance.
When he fell from the 20th floor to the 16th floor, he threw a decisive punch! He smashed the window on the 16th floor. He changed his punch into a palm and firmly grabbed onto the window frame!
Creak…
A large piece of the plastic window frame was immediately broken due to the huge force of the drag, making a grinding and twisting sound.
After shaking for a moment, Chen Yu let go of his hand and his body naturally fell.
After falling to the 11th floor, he smashed another window to stabilize his fall.
Then, he let go again and used the same trick until his feet stepped on the grass at the bottom of the building.
Straightening up, Chen Yu suddenly thought of the principal of Qingcheng No. 2 High School for some reason.
The attitude of that person who expelled him from the school at that time was probably what most ordinary people encountered.
“…”
“So there are many 92nd hotels here…”
Bang!
Controlling the dantian in his body to rotate, flow, and boil, Chen Yu walked forward step by step.
He crushed the pocket watch while he was at it.
