Chapter 484: Martial Arts Exploding the Mecha
"Xingliu was killed..."
The woman who lost both eyes leaned against the wall. Yero had her eyes and one ear taken by Lingxin, but she actually calmed down. Or rather, she saw the hope of survival in these guys whose fierce reputations also circulated.
At this time, she was using her perception ability to conduct intelligence gathering.
And on the periphery of this building, a translucent barrier was wrapped around it. This was a barrier capable of isolating all auras. The caster was a Reincarnator codenamed [Black Box]. This person wore a special black high-collared outfit, the collar completely covering his mouth, and his bangs covering his eyes. It was a quite special and mysterious avatar type.
[Black Box] mastered multiple barrier techniques, and at the same time, was very good at using barriers to kill.
Lingxin looked at Yero's only remaining ear and didn't snatch it again. Before the battle started, this woman's perception ability and curse-killing ability could still play a little role.
Her cold eyes swept over everyone. Including herself, there were only five people left. This made her mood extremely bad.
The two who died happened to be Jiang Ming and Xingliu, who had strong frontal combat power. She suspected that Mercenary Tao had perceived everyone's existence from the very beginning, so he deliberately killed the targets who could fight him head-on first.
"Quickly determine a battle plan! Mercenary Tao is approaching here!"
Black Box suddenly spoke up, his cold voice also revealing a sense of urgency. He had already realized what loophole appeared in his barrier technique.
No, that wasn't a loophole in his ability, but an environmental problem caused by this Deathmatch Mission created by the Space!
This huge city was dead silent. Besides the few of them, there were no other humans.
Therefore, even if he completely concealed the auras of himself and the others on this building, if Mercenary Tao's perception could cover a certain range, encompassing this building along with other places.
Without the cover of other humans, the other party could probably still detect the anomaly of the place he concealed.
Black Box's urging made the others look at Lingxin. Except for that mysterious Reincarnator who mastered teleportation magic, the identities of the other few had all been confirmed.
They acknowledged the strength and resourcefulness of this wicked woman Lingxin, so they faintly regarded her as the core.
This group of fierce people who committed crimes and did evil in various mission worlds behaved incomparably obediently under the pressure of Mercenary Tao.
Standing on the edge of the rooftop wearing a hood, the Reincarnator caught the performance of this group of so-called fierce people from the corner of his eye, a mocking smile on his lips.
These dregs are only so unbridled and crazy when playing with other people's lives, yet they pretend as if it's their true nature.
In the end, it's nothing but bullying the weak, nothing but bullying the soft and fearing the hard.
What fierce people? They're just a group of idiots who forget themselves after getting a little power.
He looked down on this group of people, but in order to kill a guy like Mercenary Tao, he still had to wait, still had to endure. He needed this group to force out all of Mercenary Tao's strength as much as possible.
Lingxin looked up, moving her gaze from Black Box and Yero to the chestnut-haired boy leaning against the outer wall of the rooftop on the other side.
The other party was constantly picking at his fingers, seemingly having torn off a large piece of skin and flesh because of tearing off the burr skin on the edge of his nails. Amidst the flowing blood, this boy actually revealed a satisfied smile.
"[Akira], you will go pin down Mercenary Tao head-on later. I will use my ability to coordinate and protect you. No problem, right?"
Lingxin's tone was a bit heavy. This boy codenamed Akira was somewhat mentally abnormal, seemingly having a fondness for pain different from ordinary people. But he was probably the Reincarnator with the strongest frontal combat power among the remaining group.
Akira looked up, nodded, and revealed an idiotic smile. His eyes emitted a red luster that made people feel uncomfortable.
[Survive!]
He heard a woman's voice sounding in his ear again. Akira felt his body move subconsciously, as if wound up like clockwork.
With a flash of light, a behemoth crashed to the ground.
Boom!
These abandoned buildings completely couldn't withstand a Knightmare weighing several tons. Accompanied by the sound of the roof rupturing, the several Reincarnators all reacted instantly.
They all knew Akira's special ability very well. It was an alternative rule-based ability. Someone used the ability named Geass to impose a command to survive on Akira.
Therefore, Akira would instinctively erupt with unparalleled potential from various dangers, and then create miracles to survive.
Since Akira suddenly made this movement, it proved...
"Mercenary Tao is here!"
Yero's voice almost broke. Her face was pale. Feeling that Mercenary Tao, who had only disappeared for an instant, reappeared, and was already right below this building!
Only a few dozen meters away from them.
For Reincarnators like them, this distance was no exaggeration to call face-to-face.
At the same time Yero gave her voice-breaking warning, Lingxin spread her palm.
[ROOM]!
The Op-Op Fruit ability had been executed. In the next moment, Yero felt the world become quiet; her last ear and eardrum had also been taken away.
Lingxin's expression was cold. The blue and white ROOM covered everyone. In the next moment, they swapped positions with debris on a building thousands of meters away.
Kaito turned his head, looking straight at their newly transferred position without any hindrance.
A smile hung on the corner of his mouth. Actually, it wasn't that complicated at all, like using perception ability to cover the whole city and noticing the slight difference between the place where the barrier technique was applied and other normal buildings.
There was completely no such operation.
He merely... marked all these weaklings, that's all.
Kaito's eyelids lowered, the smile completely spreading.
Bang!
A Gauss sniper cannon shell accelerated to the limit abruptly pierced through the building. But Kaito took a step to the left one step ahead of time. With one step, he had already moved four or five meters away.
That pitch-black shell entwined with lightning turned into a ray of light, directly piercing through the entire city and exploding over ten kilometers away.
Blue and white lightning spread from over ten kilometers away like an energy force field. Various electronic devices and perception-type abilities would be affected.
Bang!
Another shot!
Akira sat in the cockpit, the optical image completely capturing Mercenary Tao's figure. He revealed a fanatic expression, his whole spirit completely concentrated, entirely unable to feel the existence of any other people.
In his eyes, only the human Mercenary Tao remained!
Bang!
He tilted his head, forcibly locking onto Mercenary Tao on the optical image and firing consecutively. That specially made Gauss sniper rifle, which could completely be called a cannon, constantly changed firing angles in his hands.
But what puzzled him was that Mercenary Tao's figure was like a phantom, stepping ahead of time every time, perfectly dodging his shots.
The flight speed of the bullets from this specially made Gauss sniper rifle approached Mach 10; it was almost impossible for a human to dodge.
"He can... read minds..."
Akira's voice was a bit slurred, but it was still perceived by Yero on the rooftop. However, having had her last ear taken, Yero lay on the ground, completely having no intention of communicating with the others anymore.
"Everyone will die..."
Yero spoke as if giving up on herself.
Kaito dodged three shots as if taking a leisurely stroll, and had already arrived in front of this blue and white mecha. He held his left hand vertically in front of him and pulled back his right arm.
Countless alarms instantly lit up on the instruments in front of Akira.
[Survive!]
That curse-like voice sounded again. Akira's movements were like a demon; the mecha instantly lifted its left leg and jumped as if rotating backward. The thrusters started, and it crashed straight through the building, flying towards the outside.
Kaito remained unmoved. Turning towards the sky, he threw a punch from afar.
Boom!
A blazing white cloud dragon broke through the air, instantly hitting that mecha.
