Chapter 109: Chapter 108: On the Run

"Finally willing to come out?"

Chang Hu stepped over the corpse at his feet and looked up towards the direction of the duplex apartment building.

This outdoor stall was littered with overturned tables and chairs; the diners had long since fled.

After all, facing two Death Fighters with Golden Abilities still inevitably requires the power of parasitic creatures.

Even without parasitic creatures appearing, just the display of their supernatural abilities was enough to scare most of the diners sober and send them fleeing in panic.

Of course, in a situation like this, someone would definitely call the police.

The police must be on their way now.

Chang Hu’s left hand opened a grotesque gash that seemed bloody, yet not a single drop of blood flowed out.

He grinned: "When the police arrive and see Smiling Face nearby, how grateful they’ll be to me?"

Ever since Lv Bai used the official power of the Death Arena to drive him away, he’s been plotting to retaliate in the same way.

He’s even willing to collaborate with the glasses guy he dislikes.

...

The duplex apartment building had no elevator.

The hallway’s voice-activated lights were fairly reliable; they’d be replaced periodically, and the brightness was commendable.

However, being too bright isn’t ideal either.

Lv Bai had just rounded the hallway when he was noticed by two battling Death Fighters.

Their reason for fighting seemed to be Lv Bai.

So when they saw him suddenly appear, they immediately stopped in unison.

"You actually dared to come out on your own?"

"Ha."

The latter laughed once and rapidly launched an attack at Lv Bai.

As he lunged at Lv Bai, his body erupted in a ring of gray smoke, emerging from which was a humanoid beast wielding a Double-Headed Blade.

Notably, the blade was burning with fierce flames, giving a sense of its heat even in the narrow hallway.

[Sword Master Template (Gold): Transformation Ability, upon use, you become a mighty beast with excellent sword technique.]

Neither of the two Death Fighters had used their Golden Ability during their battle.

Lv Bai had noticed this early on.

Most Death Fighters like to hide their abilities, treating them as a trump card, revealing them only at crucial moments.

This guy coming at him directly used his trump card, not underestimating Lv Bai.

Unfortunately, it still wasn’t enough.

The Long Teeth appeared in Lv Bai’s hand out of thin air, instantly piercing the beast.

The transformed Sword Master was indeed massive, almost blocking the hallway.

Stabbing him with Long Teeth felt like a toothpick piercing a steak, barely causing significant damage.

The Sword Master leapt back silently, realizing that this environment was constraining him; too narrow to wield his full potential.

Considering the length of Long Teeth’s blade, Lv Bai too faced limitations, but he could cheat.

[Flash Time] activated, aimed at a slicing angle, directly severed the wolf’s head.

Thanks to the Sword Master’s mighty physique, the other Death Fighter standing behind couldn’t immediately grasp the situation.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lv Bai pressed his attack.

With a quick move, he slammed into the Sword Master’s body, activated [Flash Time] again, swiftly claiming the opponent’s life before he could react.

Today is different from the past; even though he’s curious, he doesn’t intend to allow his opponents to showcase their abilities.

[Ding!]

[Points +4, Current Points: 50, Current Ranking: 1/140]

Lv Bai sheathed Long Teeth, quickly moving through the hallway and exiting the apartment building.

He stood below the duplex, scanning his surroundings.

The Death Fighters wouldn’t be too aggressive, and there was no audacity to block him downstairs.

But Lv Bai had no doubt that at least a dozen Death Fighters were watching him from various spots.

Without seeking them out one by one, he wore a harmless smile in this environment, his provocation evident.

The smile gradually faded, not waiting for anyone to act rashly; he turned and dashed into an alley.

His speed was so fast, it seemed like his feet weren’t touching the ground.

Perhaps stunned, or maybe another plan was in motion—anyway, as Lv Bai entered the alley, no Death Fighter emerged to block him in that direction.

Seeing this, three impatient Death Fighters dashed out from roadside shops, trying to catch up and change the "Node" ownership.

A while later, several more figures followed.

Other Death Fighters kept calm.

Obviously, they wanted to first confirm which competitors remained.

Chang Hu crossed the road leisurely.

Many had seen his performance at the outdoor stall, recognizing him as dangerous, with eccentric behavior, and naturally wouldn’t provoke him.

Chang Hu was equally unsure of who were Death Fighters, so he chuckled and followed into the alley.

Shortly after he left, the sound of police sirens arrived from afar.

Even with serious understaffing because of the city-wide search for Lv Bai, hearing such bizarre reports would definitely dispatch officers to check the situation.

...

This small alley was much like the old city district, with many forks and junctions, the roads not a straight line, making it easy for unfamiliar visitors to get lost.

Along the way, piles of debris and cars parked directly outside homes cluttered the alley; its primary theme was rundown, crowded, and disorderly.

If a house fire broke out in the alley, the firefighters would certainly be troubled by the road conditions.

Yet despite the poor nighttime lighting and complex terrain, Lv Bai sped rapidly through the alley, agile and graceful.

A closer look reveals he didn’t perform any fancy moves like parkour; his way of overcoming obstacles was simple.

Still, whether it was suddenly encountering a garbage bin at a corner or a car blocking the way, nothing affected his speed.

He maintained the same pace throughout, as if he had traversed this path countless times.

Lv Bai leapt onto a car parked roadside, looking back, seeing no Death Fighter following just yet.

He flipped down and prepared to continue when he suddenly heard a peculiar noise.

No rhythm, just a powerful sporadic sound.

Could it be coming from the rooftop?

Upon closer inspection, a jumping shadow was faintly visible.

Like Spider-Man, the shadow shot lines up to the rooftop, dragging its body rapidly.

The shadow continuously shot an elongated object from its hand, but from a distance, it was unclear what it was.

Lv Bai squinted: "A parasitic creature?"
