Chapter 206: Men In Black
Xiang Ning perked up as he listened to their dialogue. Miss Fang? Wasnt that Fang Rou? And she had left the fortress too. Who are these people in odd costumes? He eyed them seriously now. First of all, he was sure that the guy wasnt powerful, probably only about tier three. He carried a long box on his back that Xiang Ning couldnt tell what it contained.
Are you finally going to make a move, my lord? another man in a black cloak said, sounding excited.
Thats none of your business. Its time. You two take your positions and fire in ten minutes. After the beasts leave, well meet here again. Understood? said the leader.
Understood! The two other members sprinted in two directions and disappeared.
Xiang Ning looked at his own combat watch, smirking. Ten minutes. He wanted to see what they were up to. Very quickly, he saw the man below put down his box and open it. Xiang Ning squinted.
It was an RPG, and it looked very sophisticated. The man assembled the weapon, carefully loaded a cartridge, and, once he was prepared, aimed. He was aiming at the horde of beasts that was slowly passing by.
Huh? Hes aiming at the herd. He isnt trying to kill them with just that weapon, is he? That doesnt make sense. Xiang Ning watched in bewilderment. Three people wielding three weapons like this would die before they could kill the entire horde.
Ten minutes quickly passed. The people aimed at the beasts and pulled their triggers. A ray of fiery light launched into the air, along with two others that fired at the same time. The three rays reached a certain height before exploding. It wasnt a loud explosion, nor did it seem to startle the beasts, but Xiang Ning saw a transparent liquid descending from it. He was confused, but then the slow-moving beasts suddenly roared the moment the liquid fell on them. They turned into the same beasts he had seen during the stampede. They all had red eyes, and some even started changing.
NO! Xiang Ning gasped as if he had seen a ghost. He had learned how a beast could turn berserk from Aliacontact with the substance produced by the Octoviolet Silversnake! However, he never would have imagined humans would collect the substance to purposefully trigger berserk beasts!
The beasts completely changed in just a minute, all of them roaring in fury as they madly sprinted toward the fortress. Xiang Ning realized he had just discovered a huge secret. He had a bold idea. As he watched the man packing up, he jumped.
The man in the cloak sensed a slight movement behind him, but before he could react, his mouth was covered. He instantly understood that he had been ambushed.
He struggled wildly, but Xiang Ning had sensed his capabilities the moment they touched and realized that the man was weaker than he was, only about tier two, nine-star. He snickered. He ran some calculations. If the rest wanted to return to their meeting point, they would have to wait for the beasts to leave, which would require at least fifteen minutes. Xiang Ning wasnt in a hurry.
Looking at the struggling man, he landed a punch on his nose and no longer covered his mouth. There was a crack, then the man shrieked in agony. It was a shrill voice.
Who are you! The man was furious to see such a young face. He had been ambushed by a kid!
Your father. Xiang Ning punched him again.
Fuck! I dare you to touch me again!
Youre my grandson. Xiang Ning punched again, and this time a tooth flew out.
I
Call me daddy. Xiang Ning punched him again before he could reply.
Wait, stop, stop....
Quick, call me daddy.
YOU!
Fine....
The man panicked, tears streaming down his face. Where did this crazy guy come from? Why were his punches so heavy?
I think Id prefer it if you call me grandpa. Another punch landed and the man could stand it no longer.
Grandpa, grandpa! Please stop hitting me, Im going to die. The man had lost most of his teeth and his face had gone numb. He would be disfigured for life, he thought.
No way, Im younger than you are. Its not like Ill give you an allowance if you call me grandpa. Xiang Ning punched again.
I...I! The man broke down.
Tell me, who are you!
I... I cant say.
Thump!
Who are you guys?
The Seven Deadly Sins! The Seven Deadly Sins! Were members of the Seven Deadly Sins, please let me go.
Thump!
Hey, I answered you, whyd you hit me! the man slurred, unable to properly enunciate his words. He looked extremely pathetic.
Sorry, that was out of habit. What were you guys doing just now? Xiang Ning grinned and continued asking.
The man fell silent, but when he saw Xiang Ning raise his fist, he answered loudly, We-were creating berserk beasts to attack Tranquil City!
Creating beserk beasts? Is that what you fired just now?
Yes... yes.
Dont give me one-word answers, give me the entire explanation. For example, what is that thing? Xiang Ning punched him again. For some reason, he really wanted to punch the man.
The man was in a daze, thinking of biting his tongue and killing himself, but realized he had no teeth left. Where was this madman from? He had no reason at all!
Thats... water thats come into contact with Balamu. Beasts will turn berserk the moment they touch it.
So why
This time, before Xiang Ning finished his question, the man spoke up first without a shred of emotion in his tone like a robot. To exhaust the fortresses.
Then....
We mentioned Miss Fang because her father is a tier seven master. With him standing guard, were unable to destroy Tranquil City. All we can do is set traps to lure out the two children and kill them. Thatll make Fang Zhenyuan leave his position and allow our lord and his beast army to take Tranquil City.
When he finished, Xiang Ning punched the man in the face, this time not out of habit but anger.
The man didnt retaliate and just lay motionlessly on the ground. Please kill me, Im begging you. He had no will to live after having been tortured by Xiang Ning. He knew the consequences of revealing the secrets, this little life of his was no longer worth living.
Uh, I wont kill anyone. Xiang Ning scratched his head and stood up.
Then Ill kill myself! The man punched himself in the throat and died.
