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 .

……… . .

“Hhaaaaa-“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 .
