Chapter 487: 4V4

Swoosh!

Gao Yang teleported Qing Ling out of the range of Firework, and Qing Ling’s condition returned to normal.

“Don’t get close to him.” Gao Yang let her down and shared his guess. “The man can manipulate elements. If you stay too close, you’ll end up like the wanderers getting blown into fireworks.”

Qing Ling understood immediately.

“You again! The word is too small!” Xing Kong, Madam Wu, and Cockroach had come up to Smoker, while Heavenly Dog and Officer Huang moved up to Gao Yang and Qing Ling too. Little Tian, on the other hand, had gotten into hiding as soon as he landed.

Gao Yang thought quickly. Eight people. They were four on four.

However, Little Tian had sensed seven people on Tails’ side. Edmond, Ke Yo, and Blood Amber must be around. They had to make it quick.

Gao Yang spoke in a rush, “Heavenly Dog, deal with the one in a fisherman’s hat. Don’t get too close to him. He can manipulate elements.”

“You’re in charge of Cockroach, Qing Ling.”

“You deal with the bald man, Officer Huang. Don’t get near him and don’t get riled up by him, or he’ll absorb your energy.”

Gao Yang would take care of Madam Wu.

Su Xi could be killed at any time. The clock was ticking. Gao Yang was the first to act, teleporting to Madam Wu.

Smoker reached out his hands, but suddenly hit by a strange feeling, he dodged to the side. The space where he had been distorted slightly, and a crack emerged on the ground.

Heavenly Dog had locked onto him with Spatial Dissection.

Bang, bang, bang!

Officer Huang fired at Xing Kong’s head. Xing Kong raised his prosthetic arm to block the bullets, jumping behind a pile of concrete pipes to take cover.

Qing Ling charged at Cockroach with her long blade.

“Haha, pretty girl, we met a...” Before he could finish, fierce slashes decapitated his ugly head. It fell to the ground and rolled, all the while, he was still shouting, “Toy. I’m turning you into...my toy...”

His body hadn’t stopped moving. He had already injected his thigh with holy water.

“Toy!”

Cockroach’s head shouted, flying back to his hand immediately. He reattached his head to his neck in a rough manner, his body quickly bulging and mutating.

His ribcage burst outward, and his heart turned into a powerful vortex-shaped engine. Strange black flames blazed all over his body.

In the blink of an eye, Cockroach had turned into a burly, ugly three-meter tall giant.

“Toy!” He shouted, his voice assaulting everyone’s eardrum.

He dropped down and grabbed the railways under his feet, uprooting them and whipping them like he was shaking a rug.

Clack, clack, clack.

The rusty screws keeping the railways in place shattered and scattered, while Qing Ling, standing on the other side of the railways, was thrown into the air.

Thud.

Cockroach stomped on the ground to launch himself toward Qing Ling, leaving a small crater. He opened his black flame-shrouded thick arms and tried to embrace Qing Ling tightly, his eyes blazing with black fire of desires.

She was his toy! He wanted to break all her bones and reassembled them to his liking. Then he would put a lovely dress on her.

Midair, Qing Ling had long predicted his next move. A second before Cockroach leapt toward her, she activated Metal at full force.

The uprooted railways continued to rise like a ladder, moving to under her feet. Clack. Cockroach’s arms ended up tightening around the railways rather than Qing Ling.

Stepping on the railway, Qing Ling jumped again, flying over Cockroach’s head. Twisting her body midair with her two blades in her hands, she pushed her arms together and turned herself into a spinning top in suspended motion.

After two seconds of gathering her force, she pushed God of Blades to the max and whipped her arms out, her body spinning along with the blades enveloped by cold blue aura, turning into a blue top with blue blades.

She had learned the trick from Wei, Pride Blade.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

The bladed top she turned into cut at Cockroach’s head like a meat mincer, scattering blood, flesh, bones, and black flames everywhere.

In less than three seconds, Cockroach had been cut in half from the head all the way to his chest, the momentum only stopping then. Like he couldn’t feel any pain, however, Cockroach’s arms moved swiftly to hold onto Qing Ling despite the state he was in.

Qing Ling tucked her legs in to dodge Cockroach’s arms, activating Metal to propel herself backward with her blades.

She steadied herself and panted slightly. Along the cut surface bisecting Cockroach, the flesh, bones, and tendons in his chest were already linking to mend the body.

Qing Ling thought back to what Teacher War Tiger had said:

“To deal with an enemy with unusual regenerative power, there is only one tip: be quick!”

“You cannot rest. A second you stop attacking is worth an hour of rest for the enemy.”

“It’s a test of your explosive power. Either you cut them into minced meat in one go, or you get exhausted to death.”

How should she make the most slashes in a short time while using the least stamina? The best solution Qing Ling came up with was the spinning top. The move utilized inertia so that every slash connected to the next without any pause.

Qing Ling adjusted her breathing and crossed her blade-wielding hands, tucking them close to her body in preparation for the spinning top move.

Thud. Leaping with both feet, Qing Ling shot toward Cockroach, spinning quickly.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Cockroach extended his arms to shield his chest, but it was impossible for him to block Qing Ling’s relentless slashes. In two seconds, his arms were sliced off, and the spinning top continued to extend the cut in his chest, cutting down further.

Soon, the cut had reached his abdomen.

Qing Ling jumped back and gasped for breaths.

She couldn’t give him time to recover. She had to cut him in half completely like a firewood until he lost the ability to resist. Then she would turn him into minced meat!

One, two, three.

Qing Ling charged at him again.

...

Officer Huang’s battle was going much easier for him.

Hiding behind the pile of concrete pipes, Xing Kong tried to approach Officer Huang many times, but Officer Huang’s eyes were sharp like those of an eagle, and it took him only 0.1 second to make a shot.

While Xing Kong was quite agile, he wasn’t agile enough to dodge the bullets Officer Huang fired, and he ended up hit in the elbow, abdomen, and calf.

Xing Kong didn’t fear regular bullets, but these were bullets fired with level 5 God of Firearms, which was nothing to sneeze at.

Holding onto his bleeding abdomen, Xing Kong was forced to take cover behind the pile of concrete pipes again. If he couldn’t get in range, his Grumpy couldn’t be activated.

To make things worse, even if he managed to activate Grumpy and absorbed half of Officer Huang’s energy, he wouldn’t be the man’s match. After all, God of Firearms could only exert its full power with the appropriate weapons.

The two Black Gold handguns Officer Huang was holding weren’t going to magically transfer to Xing Kong.

While Xing Kong seemed agitated, he was calm inside, and he immediately concluded, He’s a bad match for me. I’ll lose.

Rather than stubbornly fighting back, Xing Kong suddenly jumped away from the concrete pipes onto an abandoned train car, quickly closing the metal door.

Bang, bang, bang.

Clank, clank, clank.

Officer Huang fired quickly, the bullets piercing through the wall of the train car and leaving a few holes.

Xing Kong braced himself in the dark train car, not moving at all with his hands holding his head.

He had thought it through. Officer Huang was good at fighting at long range, so he wouldn’t recklessly get close. Let them stay in this stalemate with one attacking in the open and one hiding in the dark. He would leave the rest to his teammates.

And indeed, Officer Huang didn’t intend to get close to the train car. He would be at a disadvantage in a small dim space, and his priority wasn’t the fight anyway.

While keeping an eye on Xing Kong to stop him from helping his teammate, Officer Huang looked for Su Xi.

She must be nearby. Perhaps she could be hiding in one of the train cars.

Where would she be? Where...

Suddenly, Officer Huang looked up at the sky, his face twisted with terror.
