Outside the Gate
The police officers and soldiers were extrely busy because they had to make sure that none of the monsters got away from the encirclent. Their work so far has been taxing, so they hoped for the best. Reinforcent that Kevin called has been very helpful.
Nonetheless, this shall be the first and last ti they worked together with the people from Black Street.
"They’re really efficient," one of the officers comnted when he saw how the people from Black managed to maintain their position.
"That’s the sole reason why they’re always winning against us."
"After this, won’t their number decrease by a lot?"
"So do we," his friend replied solemnly.
The difference in casualties between police officers and people from Black Street beca even more apparent when the fight lasted longer. As the police officers focused on defense, there were not many injured or dead people from their side. On the other hand, people from Black Street preferred to attack, so many of them died.
However, in terms of damage inflicted on the monsters, it was people from Black Street that managed to gain the advantage. They defeated much more monsters compared with police officers, which lessened the burden on their shoulder greatly.
At the very front of them, the fight between Lou and Ayres hadn’t ended. The two of them exchanged attacks again and again. Sounds of tal clashing told them that these two were still fighting with all they had.
"Dean, how much longer should we stay here?"
"Until all the monsters defeated," Dean replied calmly, his blade moving at high speed to the monsters. "You don’t expect them to get out that soon, right?"
The leader: "..." actually, I do.
He looked at the ss before him as he rubbed his forehead. If the fight lasted longer, he was not sure that they could hold on for that longer. After all, their stamina was limited.
"If we manage to finish them all before the others’ return, it’ll be great," Dean added.
’It’ll be great if we can survive that long,’ the leader internally thought inside his mind. He eyed the confident Dean with annoyance.
"Their number is not that many," Dean added. "Because the experint subject has decreased considerably, there were not many of them they can use anymore."
The leader’s eyes widened. He was about to ask how Dean could know that when they saw a car approaching. From inside the car, Alice ca out hurriedly. Her eyes darted around in anxiousness.
"Alice!" Dean called.
"Ah, Senior Dean," Alice had t with Dean a few tis in the past because Master Rudy often visited them for training. Although Dean was rely tagging along as his student, it was easy to recognize this man.
"What are you doing here?"
"I co to help," Alice smiled. "My best friend is inside and I won’t let them touch her."
Dean glanced at Lima School for a mont then returned his gaze back to Alice in bewildernt. He knew that they caught Kanae, but he hadn’t heard a word about Alice being Kanae’s friend.
"Are you sure you want to get inside? It’ll be dangerous."
"I..." Alice swept her glance to the monsters behind the group of n. Upon seeing their scary appearance, she was stunned. She had to admit that she wouldn’t like going there if things were like this.
Dean patted the girl’s shoulder. "You should wait for Jason. He’ll co here in a few minutes."
"Jason?" Alice was surprised. "As in Jason Wells?"
"Is there any other Jason that you know?" Dean shrugged nonchalantly.
Alice shook her head lightly. No, there was no Jason Wells that she knew aside from that man. However, it was hard to believe that the sa ’perfect’ young master would participate in this battle. After all, no one could guarantee his safety.
"While you’re waiting, you might want to help out a bit."
"Sure," Taking out a few beads from her pocket, Alice threw them towards the monsters. The beads turned into smoke and dust upon contact, which landed on the body of the monsters. They shrieked and their movent slowed down considerably.
The gangsters were excited when they saw the changes in the monsters. Without any hesitation, they pounced forward.
"That’s great!" Alice exclaid happily. She didn’t know whether her poison would work, so seeing it in action made her extrely happy.
Dean smiled and continued his work. Their collaboration didn’t last long as Jason ca using his car not long after that. He was dressed properly as ’Oro’ rather than as himself.
"You’re late," Dean remarked. "It’s no wonder Tommy always calls you as Mr. I’m always late."
Jason arched his eyebrows. "I’m not an unemployed man like you."
"You’re still busy with your work during ti like this?"
"Of course!"
Dean looked at Jason’s appearance up and down. Although Jason dressed up nicely, there were so traces of tiredness in the man’s appearance. It was clear that he had to finish his work before rushing here with all his might.
"I have co to a conclusion."
"What is it?"
"I’ll never want to be a president of a company," Dean shrugged.
Jason rolled his eyes. "Do you think it’s that easy to be a president? You should try to start your own business first."
"Can you two stop arguing?" Alice asked in annoyance. They were in the middle of a battle! Who in the world would take the ti to banter with each other when their life was on the line?
Jason shrugged. "Don’t be so tense, little girl. Let’s go inside, Kanae should be in the hidden building."
"Ah, ok," Alice nodded her head.
"Stay behind , I’ll protect you."
Dean shook his head lightly when he saw the two of them moving forwards. With Jason’s large sword, it would be easy for the man to move into the sea of monsters. Protecting Alice was another thing, but he was pretty capable, so Dean was not worried.
After glancing around to see the situation, he returned his attention back to the fight.
...
"Did he left?" Neo was asking when he saw Mike returned empty handed.
Mike nodded his head. His fight with Randy stopped just now because Randy darted into the forest. Trying to find the trace of an experienced fighter was not easy. It took him a few minutes to be certain that Randy would not return back.
Neo frowned. "Where do you think he goes?"
"I don’t know," Mike shrugged. "Why does it matter? We should just hurry and finish the task. It’s not easy to get here."
"I know."
The two of them got into the tower. There was no one around them, so they conveniently took the elevator to middle part of the tower. Going out, they noticed that several monsters were already waiting for them.
"Oh great, Mike, can you handle them?" Neo asked.
"Of course, with great pleasure."
As Mike handled the monsters, Neo slipped into one of the rooms. He looked around for a few seconds before looking at the window. At this height, the wind would be extrely fierce, but he didn’t have any other choice.
From the large bag on his back, he took out a large weapon. It was in the shape of a gun, but the size was far larger than normal. In the bag, there were several round balls. The gun acted more like a cannon compared with a normal bullet because of its size.
Positioning himself near the window, he opened the window carefully. The wind slapped on his cheek forcefully as he frowned. It wasn’t too nice to feel the harsh wind.
Ignoring them, Neo aid towards the building. The monsters were coming out from every building, so he had to block their way out. Smirking, he pulled the trigger.
BOOM!
With that, the two began their work of destroying the buildings one by one.
