Chapter 333: One Man Kills a Group of Phantom Thieves
"But then again, the vampire's innate physical body is really abnormal. Although the protective fighting spirit was broken, the chest cavity was not smashed by a punch..."
Ryan looked at the rapidly recovering concave fist mark on the chest of the vampire opposite him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and muttered something in his heart.
The vampires have extraordinary physical talents and super healing abilities. As long as their heads aren't blown up by a punch, the injuries are rarely fatal.
This is a bloodline talent that most people cannot envy.
However, Ryan just sighed.
His current healing ability is no worse than that of high-level vampires.
Even stronger!
…
[Blood Devil] Lyudmila was hit by his punch, and her chest caved in. As for Ryan, only a few bloody marks were left where the steel claws had grabbed him.
The essence of [Condensing Qi into Gang] is to compress the Dou Qi. This ability not only enhances the "physical penetration" attribute, but also makes his own body-protecting Dou Qi become extremely condensed and enhances defense.
Moreover, in the past year, Ryan has been looking for thunderstorms to refine his body, and his "God of Steel Realm" has already been fully developed. At this moment, his muscles are like cast iron.
After all, the opponent is a veteran strongman among the fifth level. If it were any other fourth-level extraordinary person, no one would dare to take this claw with their body.
But for Ryan today, it was just a barely successful defense.
However, this kind of external injury on the slope will disappear in a flash.
The two separated as soon as they touched, and [Blood Demon] Lyudmila's face became extremely ugly.
He couldn't figure out why Ryan was able to break through his protective fighting spirit with one strike and almost broke his ribs, while his full-strength claw didn't hurt him at all.
"Where the hell did this freak come from..."
For a moment, Lyudmila did not associate Ryan with the Lord of Black Dragon City.
After all, the mysterious city lord rarely showed up in the city. Moreover, how could such a high and mighty city lord appear alone in the wilderness?
However, through this test, he naturally knew that Ryan was a powerful enemy who should not be underestimated.
He didn't rush to take action, but instead asked tentatively: "Brother, may I ask which route we are taking? I'm from the Red Devil Group, maybe there was some misunderstanding between us before?"
"Misunderstand?"
There was a curve at the corner of Ryan's mouth.
He had been in the Phantom Thieves before, so he knew exactly what these guys were trying to do.
This is a common method used by thieves. If they encounter a soft bone, they will eat it. If they encounter a tough bone, they will... play dirty tricks on him.
After all, he killed a squad leader in front of so many people. This was a mortal feud, and he would never let it go like this.
Ryan glanced at him and said calmly, "In recent months, your 'Red Devil Phantom Thieves' have robbed at least dozens of hunting groups in this area and killed more than a thousand people. Am I right?"
Lyudmila frowned and asked, "Are you an official of Black Dragon City? Or... a bounty hunter?"
I thought he was just a lone traveler in the wilderness, but from the tone of his voice, it seemed like he was here for their Phantom Thieves?
"That's not wrong."
Ryan shrugged and didn't want to explain further.
He has a "Goblin Communicator" in his hand, which allows him to keep abreast of the information coming from Black Dragon City.
The Black Dragon City Intelligence Department has accurate information proving that this group of thieves from Sid were instigated by the Sid royal family to specifically cause trouble for Black Dragon City.
In the past six months, this "Red Devil Phantom Thieves" has committed dozens of crimes, but has never been caught.
Ryan didn't come here specifically for them. He just happened to be practicing chasing thunder clouds nearby and didn't expect to run into them.
…
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden explosion in the air.
“Bang!”
At this moment, a gray-robed wizard hundreds of meters away suddenly changed his expression, and before he finished chanting the black magic, he swallowed it immediately.
Because at this time, a figure appeared right in front of him.
Before he knew how his sneak attack was exposed, a fist flashing with purple lightning had already poked his magic shield.
Then, the scene reappears.
Before, [Venom Fang] Kino was killed with a single punch, and no one else could figure out why their second-team captain suddenly became so incompetent.
But now, the wizard understood.
"Why can't my magic shield block this guy's fist?"
The gray-robed wizard widened his eyes, watching the unobstructed fist penetrate the magic shield and hit his chest.
Because the power was so great, he didn't even feel the slightest pain.
In the last moment of his life, he understood and wanted to say something, but it turned into blood foam that spurted out of his mouth.
“Puff~”
The gray-robed wizard was hit in the chest by a punch and died on the spot.
The Phantom Thieves who were hiding on tree trunks, in bushes, and behind boulders not far away were stunned.
If the previous counterattack by the captain of the second squad was an accident, then now they finally realized what kind of horrible monster they had provoked.
…
"Another one solved..."
Ryan calmly pulled his fist out of the enemy's chest.
I looked at the scar on this guy's face and found it matched the one on the bounty order.
This gray-robed wizard is also a veteran fourth-level extraordinary person, the captain of the 8th Division of the "Crimson Devil Phantom Thieves" [Plague Monk] Sharp, who is good at curses and black magic.
This guy's spells are tricky.
Especially control spells.
If he were to take action, Ryan would be sure to save his life, but it would also cause a lot of trouble.
Therefore, when Thunder Crow sensed the violent elemental fluctuations nearby just now, he immediately chose to strike first.
After killing a fourth-level assassin and a fourth-level magician in succession, Ryan also understood what old man Andrew from the Omar Palace said: after the fourth level, "condensing qi into qi" really requires condensing qi to about one-third of the original level. There is nothing that cannot be broken by a punch.
And now, Ryan's fighting spirit is only about one-third of the original, but it is also seven or eight times that of the same level.
[Condensing Qi into Gang] This secret technique required decades of hard practice to be mastered by other extraordinary people, even for Andrew, a peerless martial arts genius, but Ryan achieved it in just one year.
The dream space of the "intelligent brain" has twenty times more time and completely perfect experimental conditions, which is enough for him to master this technique.
This also gave Ryan the ability to easily break through the fifth-level body protection fighting spirit.
…
Two squad leaders were killed one after another, and everyone in the "Red Devil Group" was stunned.
Ryan directly expressed his attitude through actions.
These phantom thieves also know that today is a fight to the death.
Captain Lyudmila didn't say anything more. The moment Ryan killed someone, he teleported and followed.
Although he was a step too slow and failed to stop Ryan from killing his subordinates, he grabbed Ryan again and went straight to his lower back.
The lower back is also the soft spot of the human body. If he cannot hurt the opponent with this grab, he will know that today will be difficult.
However, the worst situation happened right before our eyes.
It was like grabbing a bronze man, with a dull "clang" sound.
After Ryan knew that he couldn't kill this fifth-level vampire in a short time, he immediately changed his tactics. Taking advantage of the retreat caused by the blood sucking blow, he suddenly accelerated and rushed towards another fifth-level extraordinary in the group - the deputy leader [Iron Hand] Maxim.
This is a swordsman in full steam armor, skilled in using a two-handed giant sword, assisted by a mechanical arm, and possessing astonishing strength.
The guy looked at Ryan rushing towards him, swung the giant sword in his hand and slashed out a huge crescent sword energy.
He saw clearly Ryan's foundation and used the fighter's secret skill [Godspeed] to charge forward.
Although this move has a fast advance speed, it also has a drawback. It can only advance in a straight line, which means that its direction can be easily predicted.
So this sword blocked Ryan's way.
If he tried to get close, he would definitely be injured by this sword.
But……
An unexpected scene happened.
Ryan was extremely fast, his entire body was shining with purple lightning, and he was as fast as lightning.
Just when everyone thought he would be hit by the sword energy, suddenly...
The purple figure actually changed direction irregularly, like natural thunder falling from the sky!
Without any sign of sudden stop or change of direction, he moved quickly and avoided the sword.
Moreover, the speed has not slowed down at all!
This is the exclusive body movement skill [Magical Power: Thunder Shadow Instant] that comes with the secret technique "Thunder God Technique" that Ryan found in the bottom layer of the desert ruins!
Now that he has reached the peak of the "Divine Strength Realm", the muscle strength of his body has just reached the threshold for using this "supernatural power".
His figure is as fast as thunder and unpredictable!
…
"How is that possible!"
On the other hand, [Iron Hand] Maxim's eyes caught the irregularly changing figure, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
Because swinging a sword also has a stiffness time!
When he launched this slashing attack, he just retracted the sword and the figure rushed in front of him.
At this moment, another punch came towards his fully-armored chest.
"Secret Skill: Sky God Strike?"
Maxim looked at Ryan's starting posture. His rich combat experience allowed him to immediately recognize that this was a unique skill of the Qigong master, specifically targeting armored people.
If it was a punch from an ordinary fourth-level Qigong master, he wouldn't have been worried at all.
Even if [Air God Strike] can penetrate mechanical armor, it can't hurt him much.
But... after witnessing the two squad leaders being killed instantly, Maxim had a bad feeling in his heart.
How could he not see that the guy in front of him had mastered an ability that could easily break through high-level extraordinary body-protecting fighting spirit!
And the next moment.
When Ryan's fist touched the armor, Maxim didn't feel much force, but a strange force immediately penetrated the armor, then violently tore apart his body-protecting fighting spirit and went straight to his internal organs!
At this moment, Maxim clearly felt the sensation of being "stabbed" by someone.
He felt like a weak and helpless girl, whose clothes were roughly torn off by a strong man.
"How is this possible... How could this guy completely ignore the gap between the extraordinary levels?!"
However, although he was shocked, this veteran fifth-level strong man was not idle.
Although the Qigong Master's [Air God Strike] is powerful, it is not unsolvable.
At least, the attack range of this martial art is very limited.
Taking advantage of the moment of being hit, he retreated rapidly, trying to dissipate some of the force.
Obviously, there was nothing wrong with Maxim's response.
His violent retreat saved him from having his internal organs shattered by the strange force of the punch.
After retreating a hundred meters, he stopped.
Although he groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood, he was not killed.
However, just as he was congratulating himself for responding in time, the armored man's expression suddenly changed.
He suddenly realized something, looked at the mouthful of black blood he spat out, and exclaimed: "Poisonous?!"
The black blood was like strong acid, burning his throat with a burning pain, and it sprayed onto the ground, burning a hole the size of a longan.
How could one be poisoned?
Why would a fighter use poison?
When do toxins enter the body?
Could it be that punch just now?
Questions popped up one after another.
Maxim had no idea why there was poison in the power of his punch.
However, he didn't have time to think about it, because at this moment, the figure rushed over again...
Then another punch, and the familiar burning sensation.
Maxim has confirmed that the poison rushed into his lungs from the force of the punch.
Fortunately, he is a fifth-level flesh-type extraordinary person, his body is not weak, and he can temporarily suppress the toxins in his body.
If you really want to be afraid of a low-level extraordinary person, even if the power of this punch doesn't kill him , the poison will definitely be fatal!
"Such a domineering punch. What kind of 'fist spirit' did this guy comprehend..."
Maxim was horrified.
He immediately realized that if he didn't fight hard, he would probably die here today.
The deputy leader of the "Red Devil Group" put aside his pride as a fifth-level master and shouted, "Brothers, this is a tough one, let's do it together!"
…
Even without shouting, others could see that Ryan was different.
Not only was their leader unable to do anything to him, but now the deputy leader's two sword attacks failed to work, and he was beaten so hard that he vomited black blood.
Obviously not a good person.
With a loud shout, the two hundred or so thieves hiding in the dense forest attacked together, using various killing moves one after another.
Cold guns, poisons, traps, magic...
But Ryan's speed was as fast as lightning and he could not be trapped at all.
The significance of having a large number of people is to "contain" them.
But if the people responsible for the containment cannot even hold out for a single confrontation, this number of people can only be "consumed".
However, it is impossible for these one or two white thieves to consume all of Ryan's terrifying fighting spirit that far exceeds that of his peers.
The "captain-level" extraordinary ones above level three may be able to withstand two attacks, but the other 98% of the monsters can be blown up with just one punch.
Moreover, the Phantom Thieves were horrified to find that Ryan seemed to be extremely familiar with the tactics of their Phantom Thieves Group and had no pressure in dealing with them.
Someone is dying every second...
Every punch Ryan throws will draw blood.
Gradually, as the battle progressed.
The phantom thieves of the "Crimson Devil Phantom Thieves" also realized that they were really facing a real "monster"!
Not only does he have a golden body that even a fifth-order extraordinary person cannot break, he is also resistant to any poison, has an exaggerated "strange strength" that makes a fifth-order power-type extraordinary person ashamed, has exquisite fighting skills, and of course, has the strange ability to break any protective fighting spirit...
If someone masters even one of these abilities, it is enough to make him a famous "master" in the Ice Ridge Wasteland.
But this guy in front of me has it all.
…
Either you win or you run away, this is the confidence that makes Ryan dare to challenge the "Red Devils" alone.
The speed at which his current power can be unleashed is such that even with the vampires' teleportation technique, probably only a few vampires at the ancestor level can catch up.
But whether or not he can be killed is another matter.
Moreover, he can fight and heal.
As long as the injury is not fatal, for Ryan now, the opponent has already lost.
As the number of casualties increased, gradually, the fear of death overwhelmed the group of thieves and they lost the courage to continue fighting.
Ryan was ruthless in his attack, but he charged into the crowd several times, resulting in hundreds of casualties.
Two hundred people surrounded Ryan?
No, it was Ryan who surrounded two hundred of you.
Even the group leader Lyudmila didn't dare to stay any longer.
He knew very well that with such a small number of people, it was impossible for them to defeat this guy in front of him, whose fighting spirit did not seem to be weakened at all even though he frequently "used his ultimate moves".
Moreover, at this time, he also discovered a faint tingling sensation in his body, like a needle prick.
I didn't notice it when we fought before.
But now, as the number of fights increases, that feeling becomes stronger and stronger.
It was as if ten thousand tiny threads were swimming in his meridians and qi sea. The harder they pushed, the more holes they pierced.
"That guy has a hidden weapon in his fighting spirit!"
At this moment, Lyudmila finally understood something.
He thought that his vampire body could withstand Ryan's fist, and his vampire constitution was immune to the poison; but he didn't expect that when he made contact, the "fine needles" had already pierced into his body...
…
Not far away, Ryan looked at Lyudmila who was thinking about retiring, raised his eyebrows, and sneered in his heart: "Haha... It's too late to leave now."
