He quickly slapped Miss Ada's wandering hand away.
Hmph, women are such troublesome and petty creatures!
Moreover, their method of pinching the soft flesh around the waist is an innate, true damage skill that requires no teaching; almost every woman can use it, and it comes with critical hits and true damage. Hardly any man can withstand it.
Even our very manly Mr. Steve, Captain America, is no exception. While his adamantium butt can withstand Thanos's ultimate punch, it cannot withstand a woman's pinch to the soft flesh of the waist. It's truly a bugged skill—
"I also wanted to use it earlier, Miss Ada..."
"But it's obvious that while the enemies are monsters, they aren't fools. When their opponent suddenly pulls out a weapon that can easily blow them to smithereens, do you think they would still foolishly stand there?"
"Including that dwarven goblin castle lord, he would definitely flee immediately. If that happens, all our efforts would be in vain. Once they know our trump card, they'll only set more traps to deal with us, instead of foolishly taking an RPG rocket hit."
Facing Miss Ada's complaints,
Javier shook his head helplessly and explained. This woman is sometimes very smart, but sometimes, when swayed by emotions, she becomes very foolish.
At the same time, Javier didn't forget to discreetly pinch Miss Ada's fair, round, long leg under her cheongsam. Hey! Don't tell me, the sensation was incredibly smooth and pleasant. Even without stockings or black silk, that slippery, real skin feel was truly good.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not hold grudges overnight; if there's a grudge, settle it on the spot. This was just a little interest collected.
Feeling the red mark on her thigh where she had been pinched, Miss Ada, enraged and embarrassed, lifted her size 39 high-heeled shoe and actually kicked Javier on his butt.
Not using the sharp hidden blade in her high heel for a 'thousand years kill' or a groin kick on Javier's butt was already Miss Ada being very merciful...
...
And on the other side—
Similar to what Javier had said,
The monster Raymond, who was busy tormenting and mocking Leon Scott Kennedy, saw Javier suddenly carrying an RPG. The bug-like face hidden within his squid-like body immediately twisted.
He was not a fool; there were several medieval cannons set up at the entrance of his Salazar Castle. Those things could blast open heavy stone doors.
Even a Plaga parasite giant could be blown to pieces by one shot, and Javier's RPG was clearly faster and more powerful.
If that thing hit his body, Raymond was almost certain he would die immediately, even with his massive squid-like body. He simply couldn't withstand it.
So Raymond immediately thought of fleeing...
After all, he was a Dominant Plaga holder, capable of controlling a large number of Plaga parasite puppets. There was no need for him to die here. If he escaped, he could control more Plaga parasite hosts to attack Javier and the others.
This was a very reliable method...
Therefore,
"Despicable...!"
"Damn, hateful, despicable scoundrel, Leon Scott Kennedy! I didn't expect you insidious and cunning rats to hide such dangerous weapons. Do you think your clumsy plan can succeed?"
"Your trump card has been completely exposed under my wise eyes. You cannot kill me here with your insidious schemes. Absolutely impossible. The farce ends here. I will continue to await you in the subsequent script. By then, you will have nowhere to hide!"
Raymond, floating and drifting in mid-air with his giant squid-like body, looked at Leon Scott Kennedy, who was being toyed with like an ant below.
And the moment he saw Javier use the RPG, he immediately said these strange words for no apparent reason.
And being chased everywhere,
Leon Scott Kennedy, who was being toyed with like a cat playing with a mouse, hid behind a stone pillar in the castle palace. After hearing Raymond's inexplicable words, although he didn't quite understand the meaning, Leon Scott Kennedy could roughly tell that Raymond wanted to escape.
Truly worthy of a noble family,
Even though there's no need to explain fleeing—just turn around and run if you can't win—he insisted on finding a whole list of excuses before finally running. Truly extraordinary.
Nobles...
They truly value elegance and etiquette more than their own lives—!
However, despite saying that,
Leon Scott Kennedy would not allow Raymond to escape so easily. He didn't want to be a cat-and-mouse lure for so long, only to let this damned dwarven goblin escape. He had to kill him on the spot!
"Hey... Raymond!"
"You don't need to be so high-sounding about fleeing in disarray. Just say you're afraid to die. I'm right here. If you have the guts, come and kill me. If you're gutless and afraid to die, you can slink away. After all, that's all a dwarven goblin like you is capable of. Fleeing is what you do best!"
"Bang—!!!!"
Facing Raymond, who was about to flee,
Leon Scott Kennedy decisively ran out from behind the stone pillar, holding his Lee-Enfield Rifle. He quickly pulled the bolt and fired a shot at Raymond, then loudly cursed and taunted him.
A very foolish taunt, but it was extremely effective, because nobles like Raymond possess a pride and arrogance that even they themselves cannot comprehend.
After all, he even needed to find a suitable reason to comfort himself when fleeing, let alone Leon Scott Kennedy openly insulting him here.
Even if Raymond truly wanted to escape,
He would be delayed as much as possible. This was a certainty—!
A bullet hit Raymond's squid-like body. The shot caused almost no pain, but Leon Scott Kennedy's words greatly angered Raymond.
He was indeed provoked again. Although his remaining sanity told Raymond that fleeing was the priority, even so, Raymond roared and opened his mouth.
"Gurgle..."
"Ugh—!!!"
A mass of black, vomit-like substance immediately sprayed from his mouth, just like a squid expelling ink, like a powerful corrosive water jet blasting towards Leon Scott Kennedy!
Attempting to instantly engulf this damned ant...
But the quick-witted Leon Scott Kennedy had already anticipated that Raymond would get angry and attack him, so he quickly rolled behind the stone pillar to dodge the attack. The strong black vomit corroded the castle palace's stone pillar, almost melting and collapsing it.
"Pfft..."
But very quickly, Leon Scott Kennedy ran out from behind the stone pillar again, and with a backhand, gave Raymond another shot, then hastily fled to hide behind other stone pillars.
Leon Scott Kennedy and Raymond played a game of 'King Qin circling the pillar,' like a cat playing with a mouse, all to delay time as much as possible.
And this mocking method indeed successfully ignited Raymond's fury, causing him to madly chase Leon Scott Kennedy, determined to spray black water and melt him into rotten flesh.
However,
Raymond, possessed by the demon of impulse, evidently didn't notice Javier, who had already locked onto him with the RPG. The aura of death once again enveloped Raymond's heart.
This situation was very familiar, almost exactly like the ambush on Pesanta the Houndsman before, a case of repeating the same trick.
But the unfortunate thing was, Raymond, this noble, fell for it every time. One could even say... Pesanta and Raymond were master and servant, so their temperaments were naturally very similar—
Chapter 76: Plant Mother Raymond
The shadow of death loomed over Raymond's head. By the time he realized it, it was too late, because Javier had already pulled the trigger of the RPG. Another rocket propelled grenade fiercely shot towards Raymond's massive squid-like body.
"Whoosh..."
"Boom—!!!!"
A whistling jet of exhaust once again swept out,
Crimson flames rapidly propelled the rocket propelled grenade forward. After tracing a graceful arc in mid-air, its cruciform tail fins instantly spread open, and it violently slammed into the back of Raymond's massive squid-like body again.
By the time he realized something was wrong,
Raymond turned his head, preparing to flee, only to find that the RPG rocket propelled grenade was now only a few meters away from him. At this distance, there was nowhere to hide.
His bug-like face twisted in extreme fear, and he covered his eyes with both hands, enduring the RPG rocket propelled grenade impact!
"Bang—!"
"Rumble...!"
A terrifying explosion once again struck,
A horrifying fireball instantly erupted in mid-air, with rolling heat waves and shockwaves spreading out. Scorching hot flames furiously burned in the air.
And Raymond's body, which had been hit, was like a crashing helicopter; it instantly lost its ability to float, completely charred black, emitting thick black smoke as it violently crashed down from mid-air.
"Thud...!"
A dull thud,
Raymond's massive squid-like body fell to the ground, just like Pesanta the Houndsman before. His entire body was charred black, and at this very moment, flames were still burning on him. A foul odor emanated from his body.
However,
Compared to Pesanta's fragmented body, which was scattered everywhere, Raymond's body, conversely, still retained its complete flesh, and its form was relatively intact.
Moreover, Raymond did not die immediately. After all, he was still a Dominant Plaga parasite holder, and his life force was not that fragile.
But having said that,
In reality, Raymond's situation was not far from death. He was practically half-stepping into the coffin, breathing out more than he was breathing in.
"Ho ho ho..."
A low, hoarse gasp slowly came.
In the center of Raymond's massive squid-like body, a hideous, terrifying, torn wound had been blasted open. Intense high-temperature flames scorched the surrounding flesh, causing it to curl and blacken, almost carbonizing.
A huge circular hole, nearly a meter in diameter, was starkly present, with large amounts of thick, viscous crimson blood flowing like water onto the ground, forming a massive pool of blood.
Raymond's core body lay on the ground, gasping for breath. His half-bug-like face and malevolent eyes struggled to open, staring intently at Javier and Leon Scott Kennedy in the distance with immense venomous hatred.
"Cough cough..."
But very quickly,
With a dry cough,
Raymond's pale, diminutive body coughed up blood from his mouth. His half-bug-like face and grayish-white body were also scorched by the explosion's flames, and he was already on the verge of death. Therefore, Raymond was now no different from being dead.
"..."
"You damned bastards, daring to provoke me with words and then letting me fall into a trap and be ambushed! You insects are truly insidious and cunning—!"
However, even so,
Raymond still didn't forget to furiously curse Javier and Leon Scott Kennedy. As a noble, he had to uphold his elegance, preferring to say that his enemies were extremely cunning and sly, rather than admitting he himself was too foolish.
The explosion of the RPG had inflicted immense damage on Raymond. Even though he didn't die instantly, his entire body was extremely difficult to move. At this point, only a few more shots were needed to finish him off.
"..."
"It seems you won't be able to be proud for much longer, Raymond..."
And at this moment,
Leon Scott Kennedy slowly emerged from behind the stone pillar, holding his Lee-Enfield Rifle. His previous strategy had succeeded, successfully delaying Raymond for a considerable amount of time, allowing Javier's RPG to lock onto Raymond's monster body and inflict heavy damage.
Now that the tables had turned,
Leon Scott Kennedy naturally stepped out and spoke with a faint mockery. However, mockery aside, Leon Scott Kennedy didn't intend to slowly torture Raymond, as his nature wasn't that cruel.
Instead, he slowly raised his Lee-Enfield Rifle, pulled the bolt to chamber a round, and pressed the dark muzzle against Raymond's forehead.
Leon Scott Kennedy was preparing to immediately eliminate Raymond, not giving him any time to recover from his injuries. This enemy, who had attempted to spy on Ashley and the United States Government, had to be subjected to swift and decisive justice.
"Cough cough... Hehehe..."
"Hahaha, you self-important ant, do you really think you've won? It's too early to declare victory now. Even if you deal with me, Sadler is still waiting for you. What's more, I'm not completely dead yet—!"
Feeling the cold, dark muzzle against his forehead and Leon Scott Kennedy's condescending, indifferent gaze, Raymond, who was lying on the ground, resigned to his fate, suddenly coughed dryly and let out a series of cold laughs.
He began to retort verbally, showing no weakness, his venomous eyes on his bug-like face fully evident, as if he wanted to deeply curse Leon Scott Kennedy and the others to death.
"What do you mean...?"
And on the other side,
Leon Scott Kennedy, holding his gun, frowned slightly upon hearing Raymond's words. This dwarven midget was still so stubborn even at death's door. Was he truly just being stubborn, or did he genuinely have some contingency plan? Unable to fathom Raymond's thoughts, Leon Scott Kennedy suddenly felt a premonition of ill omen.
"Rumble—!!!"
However,
Just as Leon Scott Kennedy was hesitating whether to shoot Raymond, the ground suddenly began to tremble violently, shaking as if an earthquake was occurring.
At the same time, the castle palace floor suddenly heaved upwards, as if a dragon was turning over, with something rapidly moving beneath their feet.
The violent shaking made Leon Scott Kennedy's body unstable, almost causing him to stagger and fall to the ground. And at this moment, beneath Raymond's massive squid-like body, the ground suddenly began to sink rapidly. It seemed like a monster underground was digging a hole?!
"..."
"Something is underground?!"
