Chapter 556: Path Of Blood
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The retinue under Damon’s command were made up of low tier rcenaries from the Middle east. They would fight for anyone who could provide them with money and sustenance.
However, after Chen Fan defeated wave after wave of militia, the leaders of those rcenary groups felt they had underestimated the situation. Chen Fan trucked along, storming through Kyrgyzstan to Uzbekistan, obliterating over thirteen local militia groups.
The smallest group had a bit over a hundred fighters while the largest group had more than a thousand.
In less than half a day, Chen Fan had killed more than three thousand n. However desperate those militia groups were, they faltered before Chen Fan.
Their reluctance to fight forced Damon to turn to the professional rcenary groups.
anwhile, in a mountain valley near the city of Qarshi in Uzbekistan.
“Boss, you’re saying our target this ti is just one individual?” A brawny white man asked as he cleaned a Barrett M82 while he had a cigar in his mouth; one of his arms had a three-headed viper tattoo. There were more than a dozen fully ard soldiers around him.
This was the Poison Viper rcenary Group.
They were a mid-size professional rcenary group; it ranked at hundred and sixty seven in the world’s rcenary list. They mainly operated around Afghanistan, taking smaller jobs such as extraction missions.
They had state of the art equipnt, all of it manufactured in the U.S.
Humr, armored vehicle, heavy machine guns and RPGs, you na it.
“The client will pay us ten million bucks for slowing down our target for half an hour,” said Reno, the leader of the group.
His face was disfigured by a large scar, and therefore, his moniker among his comrades was Scarface Reno.
The brawny man slapped his thigh and shouted, “Oh shit! Ten million? The Yankees paid only half that for a full-on war in Afghanistan. Let’s do it! Even if he’s so kind of martial arts master, so what?”
Everyone agreed with him and chuckled.
They risked their lives for only one thing: money. Around their neck of the woods, ten million dollars was enough to hire an entire regint. Although the Poison Viper rcenary Group was small, they were experienced fighters and had even faced off with a few Grandmasters in the past.
“Boom!”
A blaring explosion erupted from the distance.
Reno pulled a taut face and said, “Those must be Number-Four’s mine traps. The target is close.”
The others quickly readied their weapons and stood in battle formation.
“Balls! Number-Four used to be the explosives expert at the Arican Navy’s Seal Unit. Not even the Dragon’s Fang unit from China could have detected his mines. That bitch is dead at!”
The Brawny man guffawed.
Even the Extraordinary Ones or Mixed Martial Arts Masters would have been severely injured if not outright killed by landmines.
Before his words faded away, another wave of explosions ca up.
“Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!”
Each explosion sounded closer to them than the last. When the last mine was set off, it sounded as if it had detonated only a few ters away.
“What’s going on?”
Everyone was shocked by the turn of events.
They had set up over a few dozen land mines along Chen Fan’s path. It would take an explosion expert a few hours to avoid the land mines.
However, Chen Fan had stord through the minefield without stopping for a second.
“Those landmines should have destroyed a rkava main battle tank,” the Brawny man murmured in disbelief.
“KOM!”
When the last explosion was detonated, no one could believe their eyes as they watched an azure figure fly out from the explosion. The violent explosion spat out deadly tal shards, but none of them could have hard the azure figure. Even his clothes remain untouched.
“What the...”
Reno narrowed his eyes as he found the azure figure familiar.
“Bang!”
The Brawny man fired his Barrett M82. A shot from the Barrett M82 Anti-material semi-automatic sniper rifle could penetrate the tal plates on armored vehicles.
What happened next made everyone flinch.
Even Reno rounded his eyes in utter disbelief.
They watched as the azure figure extended two fingers and stopped the bullet. The bullet was lodged right in between his fingers, looking as deadly as a cigarette butt.
“Oh my god!” the brawny man exclaid. He was so shocked that he didn’t even notice that his cigar had slipped out of his mouth.
Not even grandmasters or Mixed Martial Arts masters dared to take a hit from a Barrett M82 at point blank, much less stopping the bullet with two fingers. How powerful was this guy, exactly? Was he at the Transcendent State?
“Oh shit!”
Reno suddenly rembered sothing and was about to warn his comrades.
“Are you trying to stop ?”
The azure figure slowly looked up, then his body flickered out of view and reappeared right in front of everyone. A scintillating Blade Aura had appeared in his hand as if out of thin air.
“Pong, pong, pong!”
Before the rcenaries were able to train their guns at Chen Fan, the Blade Aura sliced through the air, creating an azure arc. Anything within the arc was severed in half.
“He is Chen Beixuan...” Reno said in a shaky voice.
However, his warning had co too late. Chen Fan’s attack had annihilated the entire rcenary group, leaving no one alive.
Chen Fan’s body shimred a little and continued to dart forward. He didn’t even spare a glance at his slain enemies.
The downfall of the Poison Viper rcenary Group was just the beginning of Chen Fan’s killing spree. Ever since Chen Fan entered Uzbekistan, he had encountered many rcenary groups of different sizes trying to stop him.
Those professional rcenary groups were much tougher foes than the local militia.
They had land mines, explosives traps, missile attacks, even anti-material ballistic weapons that could immobilize a tank.
One of the snipers was able to land a hit on Chen Fan with an anti-material rifle. The bullet had penetrated Chen Fan’s Arcane Energy Bulwark and made a small mark on his Fan’s chest. If the caliber of the bullets had been any larger, the shot might have threatened Chen Fan’s life.
“Hm!!”
Chen Fan was annoyed by the sniper, so he used the Li Fire Golden Eyes on him, reducing the sniper and all of his teammates to ashes.
Nonetheless, those rcenary groups were able to slow Chen Fan down with their sheer numbers.
However, as soon as Chen Fan defeated the last rcenary group and entered Turknistan, he was able to pick up speed again as the chances of being harassed by rcenaries was greatly reduced.
Unknown to Chen Fan, his appearance had stirred up the Dark World.
“Damn! What kind of mission is that? All of my rcenaries went silent ever since taking on that job.”
“Sa here. I’ve heard nothing from Poison, Battle Fang and the Ferocious Tigers.”
“Shit! I’ve just heard that the mbers of the Red Shield were all dead.”
“What?”
The news had stirred the rcenary community.
Although it was not as famous as Diablo or the Crimson Wings, Red Shield was one of the top ten rcenary groups in the world. It had more than five hundred battle-hardened figures, including a few A-level Extraordinary Oones.
The power of Extraordinary Ones was on par with the peak of Internal Force.
The combined forces of the five hundred units could kill a Grandmaster and deter a warrior listed on the Dark Roll.
“Who are they up against? Was it the Dragon’s Fang from China or the Blood Wolf Guards from Russia?”
Everyone pondered on, but failed to find an answer.
The client gave little detail about the mission. He only ntioned that the target was an individual, but didn’t say anything else.
“The western Dark World Organization has raised the bounty to one billion.”
The news had made the entire Underground World boil over.
One billion US dollars was enough to hire a dozen top rcenary groups. Such reward was enough to entice assassinas to make a move against Odin or Adam.
People who knew a bit more about Chinese Martial Artists exclaid, “OMG. Are they going after Azure dragon or Ye Nantian?”
So people shook their heads and said, “By the look of it, the three major Dark World organizations in the west are using us as cannon fodder to fight against soone extrely deadly. He is likely an Immortal State Warrior, if not more powerful.”
However, only a handful of rcenaries could resist the lure of a billion dollars. The others flocked to Turknistan, looking for the target.
Suddenly, the nation of Turknistan was filled to the brim with powerful assassins and fighters. rcenary groups had set up camp along Chen Fan’s path, ready to claim the jackpot.
anwhile, Chen Fan was taking his ti traveling through Turknistan.
He was slightly tired after the previous battles, so he decided to slow down a little to recuperate.
“I will be at Europe’s doorstep once I make it through Turknistan and then the Caspian Sea.”
Chen Fan looked to the west; his eyes flashed with deadly intent.
