Chapter 206: 114 Eighteen Potential Points_2 Chapter 206: 114 Eighteen Potential Points_2 “Tap tap tap…”
He walked up to Viper, his shadow completely enveloping the figure before him.
“Die…”
Bai Xiao didn’t want to torture the other party; it was aningless.
He leaned forward slightly, and with a snap! The bloated shadow, like the head of a tiger, opened its ferocious mouth and swallowed Viper’s life whole. From the corners of the mouth, blood gushed out in spurts.
Eventually, in a nearby depression, a pool of blood ford.
Rising slowly, Bai Xiao took a deep breath.
He suddenly turned his head, looking at a certain spot at the end of the alley.
“The one in the corner, you’ve watched for so long, isn’t it ti to co out?”
However, the voice echoed, but there was no movent from that side.
It seed as if Bai Xiao had made a mistake, and there was no one there.
Bang!
A black figure, like a tank, smashed through the wall at that spot.
In the corner, a gray shadow retreated rapidly, as fast as lightning.
Bai Xiao pursued, his arms lashing out wildly, one after the other like sharp javelins. Bang bang bang! A pair of hands clad in black gloves collided swiftly with Bai Xiao, causing a burst of loud bangs mid-air. Due to the excessive force, the delicate gloves tore apart, revealing an ordinary palm underneath.
On the back of that palm, nestled within a circular pentagram symbol.
A simple towering tree emblem, emitting a strange bloody hue.
As if the next second, blood would truly seep out from the pattern.
“Who are you!?”
Bai Xiao’s montum was explosive, his body rubbing against the air, creating a terrifying noise. His right fist, wrapped in Fla Steel Air Flow, blasted out.
Bang!
The figure’s other gloved hand, used for blocking, also exploded.
It revealed a number marked on the back of the hand: D1145.
The other did not answer but suddenly turned and leaped away.
A fierce iron-red hue tinged Bai Xiao’s skin all over as he locked onto his adversary with eyes as sharp as an eagle’s. He drove his Hard Skill to the extre, the raging power spreading from his core to all his limbs.
Just as Bai Xiao was about to make his move,
The pentagram on the figure’s right palm began to glow faintly, a sense of danger enveloping the area, as if an Evil Ghost was about to break free from deep within his body.
Simultaneously, in the distance,
Two or three figures were sprinting at high speed, their montum formidable.
It seed that they were no weaker than Viper.
Even, so had a presence much stronger than Viper’s.
Thud!
The iron-red giant stomped on the ground, forming a deep crater.
Bai Xiao halted his charge.
“It seems… today it must end here…”
He cast a deep glance at the gray figure who had leaped over the wall, withdrew his gaze quietly, and turned around, disappearing at the end of the alley in an instant.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Twenty seconds later, at the final battlefield,
Three brutal presences ca to a halt.
They lowered their cloaks and bent down to check on Viper’s condition.
On the ruins of the wall, Viper’s chest had been pierced through, revealing a red heart that had ceased to beat. The dense Ghost Patterns on the body’s surface were broken and erased, indicating that he had fought to the very last mont. The fatal wound was a twisted neck, his eyes closed, deprived of life.
“Who was Viper’s target!?”
“That shouldn’t be right, as an Advanced Killing Ghost, how could he be counter-killed by his target? The missions given by the organization are almost always foolproof…”
Two Killing Ghosts stood up slowly, asking with gravity.
“Viper’s target was Zhao Cheng, an Elite Disciple of the Fierce Bird Sect.”
“But, he had already completed his mission!”
The third Killing Ghost spoke while checking the information.
“Oh, it was backup!”
“Viper ca to support us just like he did. The team that needed support was led by Gujiu; their target for today was Bai Xiao, who only joined the Fierce Bird Sect as a formal disciple last month!”
Upon hearing this, the remaining two Advanced Killing Ghosts looked at each other in disbelief.
“Impossible!”
“Could it be that Bai Xiao killed the Gujiu squad and then killed Viper, who ca as backup? He’s just a formal disciple, far from being an elite. Killing Viper without core strength is impossible! We three should all be clear on this…”
“What could be the reason then?”
“Could it be that Bai Xiao was with his master at the ti? Or did he get help from soone else in the Fierce Bird Sect, and it was that person who made the move…”
“Nevermind all that, let’s take Viper’s body away first, then go see if there is anyone alive on Gujiu’s side. If there is, we should learn what happened…” One of the Advanced Killing Ghosts said with an unusually calm voice.
Thereupon, the group headed to the vicinity of the Earth Real Estate office building.
After looking around, they were even more mystified.
The Gujiu squad had been annihilated; there were no survivors.
But the way one of them died was odd—he was shot to death.
A bullet had blasted through the temple, destroying the brain.
And before being shot, this Killing Ghost had suffered severe injuries.
One arm was also inexplicably twisted off by brute force.
“Strange, really strange…”
“I’ve never seen soone die like this.”
…
On a main artery in Xuanshan District of Huaisui City.
Wei Dong was shakily driving with both hands, taking deep breaths.
In the rearview mirror, his face was sowhat pale.
That’s right, it was he who had shot the Killing Ghost dead!
Minutes earlier, Bai Xiao and the Gujiu Squad had been locked in combat, rushing to pursue the Viper. So the last two Killing Ghosts he charged at were one dead and one injured.
The Gujiu Squad hadn’t been wiped out; instead, one survivor had been left.
The gravely wounded Killing Ghost was slumped against the wall, gasping for breath.
Its arm was twisted off completely, pale bones protruding through the red muscle.
It was bleeding out, life slipping away.
But the constitution of a Killing Ghost wasn’t ordinary; in theory, it could still hold on for a while, maybe long enough to wait for a second wave of reinforcents to arrive for treatnt.
However, as the Killing Ghost was gasping for air, its eyes hazily opened.
And suddenly, it saw a pair of slightly uneasy black shoes in front of it.
As well as a pale-faced youth aiming a handgun at it.
Bang!!!
Inside the black car, Wei Dong took a deep breath.
He still felt as if there was an inexplicable sll of blood lingering around his nose.
Even now, Wei Dong still couldn’t believe it.
He had actually taken lives twice in one day!
Once was passive, the other active.
The passive ti was under Bai Xiao’s implication.
The active ti was to clean up Bai Xiao’s ss.
Both tis because of Xiaozi!
Wei Dong was convinced, he was a bit overwheld.
He had thought that even if he were to kill soone, it would be like in the movies. He would do it for a girl he deeply loved without looking back.
But, his first and second tis were both because of Bai Xiao!
“Aaah, aaah, aaah…”
But then again,
The feeling of killing…
It was, in fact, a little thrilling!!!
Wei Dong looked at the rearview mirror.
Although his lips were pale, his mouth slowly curled into a smile.
“Am I… am I infected by Xiaozi!”
…
In Huaisui City, a clothing store.
Bai Xiao ca out slowly, wearing a fitting outfit.
A black coat, loose sweatpants, sunglasses.
He walked into the sunshine step by step, the sunlight reflecting off the lenses.
He approached a small shop next door.
“Boss, give a bottle of iced black tea.”
“Three yuan, help yourself.”
After paying, Bai Xiao stood in the shade and drank it all in one gulp.
The icy sensation was indeed refreshing.
His wounds seed not to hurt anymore, especially around the elbow.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiao walked into the park next to him, chose a black bench covered in green shade, and sat down with his back straight.
This ti, he had earned a substantial amount of Experience.
In front of his field of view, the professional panel displayed.
[Your profession “Martial Artist” has gained 198 Experience!]
[Your profession “Martial Artist” has ascended to LV.3!]
[Profession: Martial Artist LV.3 (4/1200)]
(Extractable)
Finally, after a series of battles, Bai Xiao achieved his goal.
In fact, he was a little bit short after killing the Viper.
So, Bai Xiao chose to attack the observer who was hiding in the shadows.
One reason was to test the waters, and the other was for the Experience.
Sure enough, after a few clashes, he finally filled up the last bit of Experience Points, even surpassing it. The Martial Artist profession reached level three, and his talent, Pure Heart, welcod another enhancent, increasing Bai Xiao’s foundation.
Of course, the advantage of the stronger talent wasn’t imdiately visible.
What was directly visible at first glance was the Potential Points!
The breakthrough of Martial Artist brought a total of eighteen Potential Points!
“Amber, extract them!!!”
