Chapter 278 Trap
DeLand City.
Somewhere in the ghetto.
Crunch! Crunch!
A teeth-grinding chewing sound was heard, and a pool of dark red blood spread.
There was no trace of living people around this apartment building, but instead the broken limbs and remains of zombies were scattered everywhere.
Obviously, this is a secret base of zombies.
However, under the illumination of the purple moonlight, all the ghouls fell into a state of madness and started the ritual of 'eating each other'.
As of now, there is only one 'Glutton' left!
Its body was sturdy and there was a tendency for it to grow larger. It swallowed a piece of flesh whole, then suddenly turned its head and looked in a certain direction.
As a participant of the 'Feast of the King', it sensed the arrival of another participant, and at a very fast speed.
“Hehehe!”
It let out a strange cry, and its almost irrational brain had no idea of how to avoid it, and it rushed forward head-on.
Puff!
The Glutton's heavy hind legs kicked the ground, leaving a deep footprint, and ran very fast.
A desire and urgency for "evolution" drives it to accelerate continuously.
Getting closer!
Closer!
After turning a corner, it saw a 'kind' running towards it with a collar around its neck.
"Oh no...it's a trap!"
The last bit of rationality in its head awakened, making it want to escape, but it was too late.
"Fire!"
Various guns and mysterious bullets fell on it, blasting bloody holes.
Bang!
Even with the strong physique of the 'Glutton', after enduring so many attacks, he turned into a corpse like a torn sack and fell to the ground.
"Confirmed target's death!"
Jax stepped forward, confirmed the status of the Glutton, and waved back: "Clean up the battlefield!"
Agents Red, Taber and others immediately stepped forward, opened the black body bag and collected the remains of the Glutton.
The tragedy in the apartment ahead will need to be resolved by the sheriffs.
"Too easy..." Red sighed as he cleaned up, "A mysterious person at the third level was killed so easily..."
"That's because we have a [Silver of Order] leading the team, and we have formulated a perfect plan... Otherwise, when facing a [Quenched Black Iron]-level extraordinary ghoul, it would not even give us a chance to shoot, and would have used illusions to fool us so much that we couldn't tell the difference between reality and illusion..."
Taber lit a cigarette, took a leisurely puff, and blew out a smoke ring with satisfaction: "It's hard to hit the opponent with his speed. Even if we hit him by chance, it probably won't cause a fatal injury... This ghoul is obviously in the middle of a ritual. His brain is broken, so he easily fell into the trap and was targeted by our fire."
"Yes... Extraordinary people of this level are definitely the backbone of the mysterious world."
Jax added, and immediately ordered: "Tonight's operation is not over yet, continue!"
"Yes, sir!"
Red's face straightened and he followed the large group of people to start a new 'hunt'.
…
An abandoned factory in the suburbs.
Under the moonlight, a 'glutton' with a silver chain around its neck ran forward excitedly.
"It looks like another nest?"
Red's face was flushed, half from the intense exercise and half from the excitement.
Tonight's action allowed them to easily destroy the zombie dens one by one, just like playing whack-a-mole.
The merits he had accumulated were even enough to allow him to apply to his superiors to upgrade his mysterious level.
Moreover, he has a strong sense of justice, and killing these dark creatures is an act that is in line with his philosophy and has gained him great support in his heart.
“Go, go, go!”
Red, holding a mysterious gun, his eyes red, kicked open the factory door and rushed in.
The operation tonight went too smoothly, causing the caution he had always maintained to disappear a little.
The next moment, his pupils shrank and he saw the internal structure of the factory.
In the open space, there was only an iron cage, in which was imprisoned a "glutton" with its limbs cut off. Due to the vitality of the extraordinary race, it was not dead yet and was struggling continuously.
“This is… a trap!”
Red felt as if a string in his head had broken.
He turned around fiercely, wanting to shout something to his companions.
But it was too late.
A huge ball of black flame suddenly emerged from the factory floor, engulfing Red, the Glutton that served as bait, and the special forces team behind him...
The last thing Red saw was the slightly wry smile on the face of his partner Taber, and then he fell into eternal darkness, his spirit was extracted and sacrificed to some evil being.
Boom!
A ball of black flame emerged, engulfing the factory and its surroundings.
It all happened so fast.
The special team suffered heavy casualties, and the number of hundreds of people was reduced by half.
“This is… a trap!”
Jax was on the edge of the group and barely survived.
In fact, he should have died at this distance. The only reason he survived was that a light curtain emitting silver light fell from the sky and saved the remaining people.
—Odis Guinier!
This senior member of the special department, a transcendent of [Order Silver], had tried his best, but... he still couldn't save everyone.
His granite face was moved, and his eyes were burning with anger: "The 'soul extraction' of the 'necromancer', combined with a large amount of explosives? Why does the 'necromancer' appear in the ritual of the ghouls?"
"I was only invited by a 'Lord of Gluttony' to come and collect some souls..."
A hoarse laugh was heard in the night, and the figure of an old man in a black robe slowly emerged. His face was old, like a skull, and green will-o'-the-wisp was burning in his deep eye sockets. A smile appeared on his face that could give people nightmares at night.
"Your Excellency, Odis Guinier! The Gourmet Society salutes you!"
Next to the old 'necromancer', another handsome young man came out, as if he was a distinguished guest attending a dinner party, and greeted him very politely: "I hope you can become our precious dinner guest, it will be our supreme honor and joy."
"So, the ritual was a bait, and the real target... is me?"
Audis moved the five fingers of his right hand, and silver chains emerged in the void, intersecting horizontally and vertically to form a giant net that protected himself.
He is a fourth-tier [Silver of Order], and his occupation name is 'Silver Alchemist'!
This is a high-level profession in the 'Tower of Alchemy', which can manipulate the power of a magical metal - Mithril!
Mithril is a special metal created by alchemy. It has excellent ductility and toughness, and can resist the erosion of certain mysterious forces. Therefore, it is an excellent material for making some special bullets.
In the hands of the 'Silver Alchemist', they can produce even more terrifying effects!
