The team members' faces were almost distorted due to the exertion.

At this moment, the team member's thighs suddenly exploded.

His center of gravity was unstable, he lost his balance and fell down the stairs.

Lucy quickly retracted Monofilament Wire, and with another flick, the golden lines wrapped around the team member's neck like a spiritual snake.

The latter was shocked.

Trying to free myself.

But in fact, even if the data cable is wrapped around the neck, it is impossible to break free.

Not to mention the Monofilament Wire which is many times sharper than the data cable.

Lucy just raised his wrist slightly.

The struggling expressions of the team members froze on their faces.

His hands dropped helplessly.

The head rolled down the stairs.

Blood spurted out wildly, staining everything around him red.

"Target cleared."

V's voice came from the team's voice channel. "I don't see any enemies here. Now, let's go up and see how Ryoko's mother is doing?"

Lucy didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly stepped on the blood on the floor to the room upstairs.

"This is..."

When she saw clearly what was in the room, especially Kakyoin Chihana, who was kneeling on the ground and seemed to have lost all life, her expression changed.

She rushed to Chihana's side and shook the latter's body.

"Chihana, Chihana, can you hear me? It was Ryoko who asked me to save you!"

Chihana's eyelids trembled slightly.

But didn't wake up.

Lucy looked around, thought for a moment, and decided to drag Chihana out of the pile of dead people first.

She dragged Chihana outside.

Then a table was brought over.

Lifting Chihana, he carefully placed her on the table.

Then he took out a Pneumatic Syringe.

This is "Revival-Kang Type 3" assigned to them by Su Xiao.

It is the best model available on the market.

"Recovery 1" is standard equipment for ordinary mercenaries and can be purchased at street pharmacies.

Type 2 is more effective than Type 1, but it is also much more expensive.

At least only mercenaries who are qualified to enter the next life can afford it.

And "Revival-Kang Type 3" can only be obtained from middlemen, and it is a model that no one with money can buy.

There is no doubt that its therapeutic effect is also the best.

However, Chihana's condition looks really bad.

For insurance reasons, Lucy gave me another injection.

Throwing down the two empty "Revival-Kang Type 3", Lucy then pulled out the personal cable from his wrist and inserted it into Neural Slots of Chihana.

Originally, she wanted to check Chihana's physical condition.

This is the fastest, most careful, and most error-free inspection method.

But as soon as he connected it, he was attacked by the neurological virus that was raging in Chihana's body.

If it had been anyone else, they might have suffered a disaster if they were caught off guard.

But Lucy himself is a highly skilled hacker.

I've even been to the Black Wall.

He was even able to get in and out seven times while being chased and intercepted by the swarming crowd.

Not only that, the Network Access Pod she installed as "Master Kong". Although it is a knockoff, it is also an overclocked version, and its performance is equivalent to the third generation genuine prosthetic body.

The neural viruses attacking Lucy were like hitting a wall. Before Lucy could do anything, they were shattered into pieces and torn apart.

But Lucy's eyebrows were tightened and her expression still looked worried.

"V, can you hear me?"

V said doubtfully, "Yes, I saw you found Chihana, what's wrong?"

"Her condition is very bad. I have tried to help her stop the bleeding, but she was infected by the virus. Her ICE is almost scrapped and the neural network is almost completely eroded."

As soon as V heard this, he immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Then bring her down quickly and we'll send her to see Old Wei right away."

Lucy shook his head. "I'm afraid it's too late, V, you cover me, I will help her remove the virus from her body first."

"But! Lucy, wait--"

To avoid being distracted.

Lucy blocked the voice of the team channel and cut off V's next words.

She closed her eyes.

Concentrate on removing viruses from the Chihana neural network.

"Su."

Listening to V's anxious tone in the team voice channel, Su Xiao held the scabbard at his waist with his left hand and leaned forward to sprint.

The Law Enforcement Group team members who were standing outside the apartment building only had time to ask "Who is it?"

He was kicked in the chest.

Breaking the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window.

The whole person was mixed with glass fragments and crashed into the room.

"I heard it, V, you are responsible for protecting Lucy, and leave the rest of Tiger Claws Gang to me."

After ending the call with V, Su Xiao stepped on the crunching broken glass and slowly walked into the room, casting his eyes on Nantong Zhengshuang and his group in the lobby on the first floor.

"Who?!"

"Asshole!"

The men surrounding Nantong Zhengshuang were shocked and angry.

"Are you the reinforcement that the woman asked for?"

Nantong Zhengshuang The group that didn't even look at it and couldn't get up from the ground for a long time

The staff member just stared closely at Su Xiao who walked in.

Then...

He waved his hand.

Tiger Claws Gang beside him picked up a baseball bat and Katana, and rushed towards Su Xiao.

The reason why he did not fire a gun was to brandish a cold weapon.

It's because they think they have a large number of people here.

Su Xiao There is only one person and one knife.

Heaps can also kill the other party.

Facing Law Enforcement Group, who was coming like a wolf and a tiger, Su Xiao only slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Then he slammed his right foot on the ground, and his whole body flew high like a bird.

The thumb of the left hand gently moves the knife tangent, and the right hand holds the handle of the knife tightly.

A cold light shone on the faces of the team members who rushed to the front.

The latter was hit by this sudden cold light and subconsciously narrowed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that the perspective was very strange.

The world was spinning, as if it was shaking in the air.

Cutting off the leader's head with one knife, Su Xiao spun around in a circle.

While dodging the incoming blade, he quickly raised Muramasa above his head, assuming the same posture as Shigen-ryu.

Law Enforcement Group, who was face to face with Su Xiao, seemed to have anticipated something, and hurriedly put the knife across his head with a look of horror.

Poof!

Muramasa cuts off the blocking Katana without any hindrance.

Then he slashed hard into the opponent's shoulder.

Cut hard from the opponent's left shoulder to the right rib.

This member of Law Enforcement Group was almost split in two by Su Xiao.

The blood surged out like a fountain.

It's just that the fountain sprays water.

And what sputtered out from his body was blood.

Su Xiao did not stand still, but stepped aside.

Dodge the baseball bat coming from behind.

At the same time, he waved his right hand and slit the throat of the team member holding the baseball bat with ease.

The latter dropped the baseball bat, put his hands on his throat, fell to his knees, and twitched like a fish that landed on the beach.

But no matter how hard he struggled, the blood couldn't stop, gurgling out from the blood gaps.

The remaining Law Enforcement Group members were all cowering in fear.

The previous fierce and cruel expression faded a lot, replaced by shock and fear.

From Nantong Zhengshuang giving the order to attack, to Su Xiao killing three Law Enforcement Group.

The whole process took less than ten seconds.

Three of their companions had died tragically under the knife of Su Xiao.

But they haven't even touched a corner of Su Xiao's clothes.

The difficulty of the young man in front of them was far beyond their imagination.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh-"

Under the influence of fear, a team member wearing a devil mask dropped the Katana in his hand with a look of horror on his face, and then pulled out the Kinetic Handgun from his waist.

Just not waiting for him to take aim.

Su Xiao had already stepped forward, as if skating under his feet, passing by the team member.

With a wave of his right hand, a cold light flashed.

The evil ghost mask was cut in half.

The skull flew into the sky.

Blood spurted onto the ceiling.

The team members without their foreheads look like drunken men.

Staggered and fell to the ground.

"Everyone, stand down! Let me come!"
