New Puppet
Dozens of people opened fire simultaneously, almost reaching the point of fire coverage in this street less than ten meters wide, with sparks and stone chips from bullets colliding with buildings visible everywhere.
However, despite the intense gunfire, they were unable to hit Qing Chen and Kabri.
Just like the metal storm of the steel dome of Prison No. 18, when it was first activated, bullets poured down like rain, but not a single drop hit Qing Chen.
Qing Chen and Kabri were like navigating through a series of winding tunnels, with bullet walls forming the tunnel walls beside them; a collision would mean certain death.
But they didn't die.
"It's our turn," Qing Chen said with a smile.
The moment they passed another future member, a spurt of blood suddenly shot out from the back of that future member's neck.
It's as if some unknown force is taking away life.
The most terrifying blades are those that are invisible yet palpable.
The moment you feel it, the result could be death.
There weren't many future members who came to hunt down Qing Chen and Kabri this time. They were first bombarded by "Kabri", and 35 of them were accurately killed.
Now, on this very street, they face the combined Puppet Master and Knight True Qi, reaping the rewards.
Even more terrifying, however, was that after the deceased members of the future were cut up, they turned into dust and dissipated into the air before they even had a chance to fall.
Qing Chen kept harvesting and sacrificing, so that he left no blood or trace in his wake, as if no one had ever died.
The Puppet Master was unusually excited; its initial resistance had turned into joy.
Let it become a knife if it can. As long as there are enough sacrifices to allow it to evolve into a higher form, that's a good thing.
It smells so good.
Abby said, "Kyle, you go in front, they can't hurt you!"
A C-Class future member roared, his entire body's surface skin turning into a hard rock, and he charged towards Qing Chen.
However, Qing Chen nimbly dodged, leaping onto the wall and lightly springing his leg to avoid it.
But this future member wasn't so lucky. This time, when the Puppet Master cut in, everyone saw with their own eyes the cut seams on the C-Class expert's body, and his skin cracked inch by inch like stone.
The future members were terrified.
These blades are so sharp, they even managed to break through the supposedly strongest defense of C-Class Awakened!
It didn't even last a moment.
Kyle also turned to dust.
Qing Chen and Kabri didn't even need to engage in close combat, and no one could slow them down.
They roam the dark streets, wielding invisible blades.
Abby knew things were going badly; this level of battle would be difficult to stop without a master like Mike.
He wasn't even sure if the arrival of B-Class would be of any use, or if only the personal presence of an A-level officer would suffice.
Currently, there is a significant gap between Level A and C-Class in various Time Walker organizations.
At the level of Awakened, most people's highest level of awakening for the first time is C-Class. To awaken to a higher level, one must be a genius among one in ten thousand.
At the level of cultivators, most cultivation lineages require at least ten years to reach C-Class.
At the level of gene warriors, there isn't enough time yet for everyone to use all the gene serums.
Therefore, B-Class are now just as scarce as A-level individuals in various organizations; they are strategic resources and truly Chosen One.
Abby is only C-Class.
He knew that being crushed in an instant could easily destroy morale.
Li Minghao is too cunning. He actually chose such a clever time to harvest the middle-level members of the Future Organization.
Unless Mike can quickly provide support, there is no way to salvage the current situation.
Yes, at this moment, Qing Chen was still disguised as Li Minghao, intending to frame him to the end...
This greatly confused Abby. Didn't the intelligence say that Li Minghao wasn't good at fighting? How come he was so powerful in battle?
The intelligence was wrong!
Abby thought about many things at that moment: the conspiracy of another local Time Walker organization in North America, Kabri's infiltration of the Future Organization, Li Minghao's alliance with another organization in North America to cooperate from the inside...
He seemed to understand everything, yet he didn't fully comprehend it.
My thoughts returned to the battlefield.
Abby knew that if they had enough people and followed orders, they could find a way to break the situation.
However, before he could come up with a solution, the future members in front of him had already turned around and started to run away.
People often say that a defeat is like a mountain collapsing. This doesn't describe how miserable everyone is when they are defeated, but rather that no one can stop the mountain from collapsing and no one can motivate those deserters back to the battlefield.
Abby also wanted to escape, but he suddenly looked up at 'Li Minghao' and found that the other's gaze was fixed on him.
It's over.
He knew what that look meant; the other person was coming for him!
Abby turned and ran, switching her communication channel as she ran. "Mike! I've run into Li Minghao!"
Mike, panting, asked, "Do you need my help?"
Abby was silent for a few seconds, then calmly said, "It's okay, he's already escaped."
On the long street, Abby stood stiffly, feeling as if his wrists were wrapped in weightless threads, making him Puppet Master completely unable to move on his own.
At that moment, the black friend finally understood why Kabri had been acting so strangely these past few days; it turned out he was being controlled by someone.
Using the same method.
So, when was Kabri controlled?
Abby suddenly realized that it should be when the North Pole and the Radiant Brilliance meet! But at that time, neither Kashima nor Kamishiro will be in the Greenland waters.
At one point, Abby had a thought: Could it be that this Li Minghao wasn't the real Li Minghao?
But he had no way of telling anyone the answer he held in his heart.
Qing Chen had thought about it for a long time. All the well-known people from Kamishiro, Kashima, and the Future Organization had gone into hiding. If he wanted to fill the quota of two puppets, he had no chance at all.
But he quickly came up with a solution: since he couldn't find the other person, he would reveal his whereabouts and let the other person come to him.
So, he waited for Abby.
At this point, all of Qing Chen's previous accumulation began to slowly reveal its extraordinary potential.
The advanced form of the Puppet Master, with C-Class strength, also means that he can control two experts of the same level to form the prototype of a sword formation.
If he only controls two D-Class opponents, he still wouldn't be able to defeat a skilled opponent with just one hand.
However, if he controls two C-Class individuals after being promoted to C-Class, he can still fight a B-Class opponent head-on.
The quantitative change has finally led to a qualitative change!
The next moment, Abby also moved, and the three figures began to chase after the remaining members of the future.
The future members were shocked. It turned out Abby was also an undercover agent?!
In less than five minutes, the few remaining members of the future were caught, killed, and sacrificed one by one.
Qing Chen did not linger on the battlefield. He turned around and quickly left with the two puppets. He turned off Abby's phone and threw it away to prevent them from following him.
He did want to use Abby to infiltrate the enemy, Future Organization had lost so many people that it was impossible to explain, so he should be cautious and use Abby to do something else.
No sooner had he left than Mike, who had finished the battle, arrived.
When Mike first overheard Abby's phone call, he felt something was off and that Abby's words were a bit strange.
However, Mike looked at the deserted street. There was no blood, no corpses, only gunshot marks on the ground and walls. It seemed that the battle had ended shortly after it began, and there were no casualties.
It really looks like one side quickly retreated after a brief battle.
Mike switched the communication channel Abby was using, but found it completely silent; no one spoke.
He called Abby again, only to find that her phone was switched off.
That's all for today. Consider this a day off. Writing 10,000 words a day is too much for someone as clumsy as me. I need to take a break and adjust my mindset.
