And those three hunters quickly exchanged glances, then imdiately split into two groups. Two of them charged straight at Jiang Shu, while the third hunter symbolically sprinted toward Red Clo.
It seed that because this was an urban area, or perhaps because they had received orders to capture alive, the three hunters did not use firearms. Instead, their rifles, after a few seconds of "clacking," transford into long sticks.
But before Jiang Shu could react, Little Yi stood in front of him, extending a hand to stop Jiang Shu from stepping forward.
Yi: Although there are three, I am sufficient.
He exuded the aura of a martial arts master.
Then its figure moved, its mantou-like feet flying off the ground as it wore tiny shoes, causing a series of "pitter-patter" sounds with its footsteps.
The two hunters swung their long sticks in the air, chopping directly toward Jiang Shu’s shoulders, seemingly intent on shattering them completely.
But Little Yi had already closed in next to the two hunters, and it quickly lifted them off their feet, striking each of their knees with its palms.
It seed a terrible force was transmitted into the hunters’ legs, causing them to stumble imdiately. The double sticks they had already swung only hit the marble ground in front of Jiang Shu.
"Boom! Boom!" Two consecutive booming sounds erupted.
The sticks missed Jiang Shu by a whisker, striking heavily on the ground in front of him, instantly scattering stone dust and billowing smoke.
But Jiang Shu, within the smoke, hadn’t moved a step. It was as if everything was within his calculations; he rely brushed the dust off his clothes and silently watched Little Yi and the two hunters tangled up.
However, all of this was only seen by Red Clo, who was pressed to the ground. The truth was that Jiang Shu hadn’t reacted to the two sticks at all. Even a millisecond more, and he would have turned into a poker card and fled the scene.
Now that he had pretended to stay, he had to continue pretending. Therefore, he still didn’t retreat, but his alertness had been heightened to the utmost.
Of course, Little Yi didn’t possess any great strength. The brief palm strikes that caused stumbling were just the effect of Derivative Entry·Three Noes Hypnosis.
Jiang Shu tried to use the Foreknowledge Technique to sense the hunters’ combat thods, but was unsuccessful. In this room, he could only see himself and Red Clo, because whether it was Little Yi or the three hunters, all were robots.
Just as he had initially speculated.
Apart from robots, it was hard for Jiang Shu to imagine where this "Heavenly Descending Army" had co from.
And due to the interference of robots on both his and Red Clo’s futures, he couldn’t see any useful visuals, which was a flaw of the Foreknowledge Technique.
Only fifty percent of the battery was left.
Little Yi was already feeling trendous pressure. Its original design was not for combat; it had already disabled the opponents by using Three Noes Hypnosis, and the two hunters, as it had anticipated, were being cautious of this nonexistent "great strength," making them fight awkwardly.
But even so, it inevitably fell at a disadvantage.
Thus, it needed other Derivative Entries for help.
So, it made ti to cast a pleading gaze toward "Old Monster Jiang."
Jiang Shu nodded slightly; he gave Little Yi the ultimate Law Class ability "Shadow Cutting," and also handed over the "Paper Card Technique," which he almost never parted with.
Aiming for a quick battle and a quick resolution.
Indeed, the result was as he had anticipated—after acquiring the combination of these two powerful abilities, Little Yi needed only five seconds to finish off the three hunters.
Precise calculating capability combined with "Shadow Cutting" and "Paper Card Technique"; without any relevant information on the enemy, Little Yi’s combat power was enough to instantaneously eliminate the three hunters.
"Hmm?" A puzzled sound erged from Red Clo’s mouth. He was still unclear about what had just happened.
One second ago, the two hunters were overpowering Little Yi, and the hunter pressing him even had spare energy to watch the show with him. How had Little Yi suddenly managed to annihilate all three of them at once?
Red Clo felt the motor oil that had splashed onto him, and with so disgust, he flicked it onto the ground, but his brain was still rapidly processing.
What had he just witnessed?
Such terrifying kinetic energy hidden within such a small chanical body; moreover, it used a thod he hadn’t clearly seen to swiftly kill all three hunters.
These terrifying robots, if he rembered correctly, there were seven of them!
And this one is still the only weakling that can’t fly!
In the past, Red Clo hadn’t felt this way, but now he suddenly realized that this guy’s physical strength was also insanely frightening, probably not far off from a T1 Combat Sequence...
"So what are you planning to do next?" Jiang Shu pulled sothing resembling a test tube from his pocket—it was silver and completely sealed. He looked up at Red Clo with a mocking expression, "Our fence-sitter, Mr. Red Clo, exactly which side are you on?"
"I..." Red Clo gave a grimacing smile, not embarrassed by his actions in the slightest, "My surrender earlier... I was just worried that they’d kill on the spot since I had openly trampled the law. But you’re different, they definitely wouldn’t kill you. When I earn Tang’s trust, I can set you free. Trust , I’m capable of that."
"Fine then." Jiang Shu didn’t say much about this obviously perfunctory explanation.
Clearly, Red Clo’s previous act was just him continuously playing the fool. Jiang Shu had always been skeptical about this guy, so obviously, he wouldn’t fully trust him but wouldn’t completely disbelieve him either.
"So what do you plan on doing next?" Jiang Shu changed his question.
Red Clo touched his non-existent goatee, then continued, "I’ve decided to first infiltrate Tang’s camp, then beco his closest confidant, and spy for you. When the ti cos, we’ll cooperate to capture him."
After speaking, he smugly added, "Trust , I’m capable of it."
"Indeed, I also believe you’re capable. And more coincidentally, I have the conditions to support it," Jiang Shu nodded convincingly, then he pulled the cap off the silver syringe and plunged it without hesitation into Red Clo’s arm.
"Eh? What is this stuff, it’s so cold..." Red Clo blinked, not forgetting to continue his antics even then.
However, he soon changed his deanor, his eyes bulged out, his tongue stretched out long, clutching his neck, looking like he was about to suffocate.
Finally, he fell down stiff.
Just like that, he really died.
"So much drama." Jiang Shu shrugged; this dicine was the poison that the chanical disciples had developed.
A single dose was lethal, and it only showed as myocardial infarction. Perfect for murder, arson, and handy around the house, it didn’t take up space, so he always carried a dose.
Back then, the cri boss Garcia had died from this poison too, though he didn’t have Red Clo’s extravagant acting skills.
It had to be admitted, at tis like this, the poison was surprisingly useful because it could directly kill Red Clo and preserve his body perfectly.
Just take it along then, since he could resurrect him later anyway.
Now he also thought of the best way to deal with these villains—kill them with this dicine, preserve their bodies, and then lock them up in prison using Paperman for resurrection.
It prevented them from committing evil through spiritual resurrection and easily ensured they served a lifeti sentence, giving them a good chance to reflect on why they opposed the great Magician Jiang Shu.
Isn’t this more interesting than Arkham Asylum?
It also satisfied Jiang Shu’s sowhat strange collecting desire.
What could be more thrilling than collecting super criminals?
Yes.
That was to occasionally let these super criminals out to work for him, which was why Jiang Shu preserved Red Clo’s body.
Hero Prison.TXT.
Of course, this plan still needed refinent; even Jiang Shu couldn’t guarantee he could fully control people like Clo and Tang.
Though, the concept was really thrilling.
A Paperman version of Arkham Asylum?
Interesting.
