Chapter 4: Newcomers to the Universe Chapter 22: Top-notch Master (Part 2)
Not only did the guards defect, but even the front, back, and side doors of the Chang family mansion were all open, and the maids and servants walked out with their hands raised high, shouting, "Spare our lives, spare our lives, spare our lives. "
The Huayue Gang's expression changed when they saw this.
Shouting "surrender and no killing" to shake the enemy's morale is their usual tactic. It is normal for a few guards to defect occasionally, but if even the maids and servants lined up to leave, it was a premeditated move.
"Be careful." Elder Feng said coldly.
The captain of the Red Moon team nodded.
"The traitor shall die!" Along with angry shouts, dark red balls were suddenly thrown out from the four walls of the Chang family mansion. These balls either hit the walls of the street, were chopped down by the Huayue Gang members, or fell to the ground.
But without exception, these dark red spheres eventually exploded, and red mist spread.
"ah."
“Ahhh~~”
Immediately, a gang member covered his chest in pain, his body trembling and fell down. The red mist spread, causing panic among some members of the Huayue Gang.
"Hold your breath!" The captain of the Red Moon team shouted, and the 500 Red Moon team members stood still calmly. They were the elite of the entire Huayue Gang. Even the most ordinary members could generally hold their breath for ten minutes, and the slightly stronger ones could hold their breath for twenty minutes. If they were third-rate masters, they would have reached the cellular level of control, and their breath-holding ability would be even stronger .
Captain Chiyue looked at the red mist that was spreading and becoming lighter, and said indifferently: "This is the most common five-poison smoke! The area around is not closed, and the five-poison smoke will become lighter and lighter under the wind. It will only take ten breaths for it to be no longer a threat."
“This young master of the Chang family is really skilled enough to be able to obtain dozens of five-poison smoke balls.” Elder Feng chuckled.
He had been through many crises in his life, and had seen many methods that were ten times more powerful than the Five Poisonous Smoke. As a first-class master, with his control and perception of the surrounding environment, it was almost impossible to threaten him with some insidious tricks.
After ten breaths, the Red Moon Team was completely unharmed, but more than thirty of the Fenghu Hall's five hundred elite soldiers were killed, causing the Fenghu Hall Master Cui Xiaodao to look unpleasant. The remaining gang members also became a little timid and became more cautious.
"attack!"
The captain of the Red Moon team gave the order coldly.
The 500 members of the Red Moon Team, led by each team leader, surrounded the Chang family mansion. At this moment, with an order, all the team members took out a flying axe from their waists! Fenghu Hall Master Cui Xiaodao also gave an order at this moment, and all the gang members took out a flying axe from their backs.
Throwing axes are the most commonly used throwing weapons by gangs.
There is no threshold to use it! Just throw it in a general direction, and there is no need for accuracy. Because there is no need for accuracy under the dense cover of flying axes!
“Wow, wow, wow!!!”
Countless flying axes were blurred under the light of the night, and vaguely cold lights could be seen reflected in the air. Countless flying axes whistled through the air and enveloped the Chang family mansion.
"Go!" Captain Chiyue ordered again.
Boom boom boom!!!
One by one, the team leaders stepped forward. They were all top-notch experts. In terms of strength and speed, they were already at the same level as Xu Jingming and his team, but they were inferior in terms of weapon skills. But they kicked out! The walls of the Chang family mansion were kicked down one after another, and more than ten gaps were kicked out.
Five hundred members of the Red Moon Team charged in through more than ten gaps.
"kill."
"Kill." While charging, the members of the Red Moon team threw their flying axes again!
Each team member carries three throwing axes! With each of them throwing the axes with at least a thousand pounds of strength, the sheer number of throwing axes... is enough to scare many enemies.
…
The Chang family has already given up on the periphery, and all its personnel have retreated to the core inner house.
"The Chang family has raised me for three years, and today is the day for me to repay them."
"Sir, if they want to hurt you, they have to step over my body first."
"Sir, please hide inside the house and leave the outside to us."
These guards are all fearless and brave.
Those who are afraid of death would have fled from the battlefield long ago!
Chang Yi sighed secretly when he saw this: "Among the ordinary guards, there are three 'third-rate masters' who are space citizens hired by me! The others are all natives. These natives are really loyal and righteous."
"Everyone, I am facing a great disaster today." Chang Yi said loudly, "Everyone stay with me and never abandon me. As long as you can survive today, I, Chang Yi, will give you 10 taels of silver."
"Thank you, sir." The guards became even more grateful.
After Chang Yi finished speaking, he glanced at Xu Jingming and the other two, nodded slightly, and retreated into the house.
Xu Jingming, Mr. Lu and Zi Teng are together.
"He really values friendship and loyalty. So many people didn't escape." Xu Jingming said softly.
"Those who are disloyal are looked down upon. In this chaotic world, people admire those who value righteousness even more." Mr. Lu whispered.
Xu Jingming nodded.
"Here they come." Miss Zi Teng looked outside.
Bang! Bang! Bang! One after another, the flying axes shot forward!
The guards immediately raised their shields, but Xu Jingming and the other three stood still, only moving slightly to avoid the flying axe when it approached!
"Let's go out and fight. It's boring to hide all the time." Miss Zi Teng's eyes were full of excitement.
"Go." There was a fighting spirit in Xu Jingming's eyes. Before he became a starry sky life, his actual combat bonus reached 500%. After the transformation, he had been comprehending the first part of "Transformation of Light", and he had a deeper understanding of "Flowing Water Volume" among the five volumes of spearmanship.
Today is the time to verify!
"Kill." Mr. Lu was also filled with murderous intent.
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The three of them rushed out at the same time, only to see the Red Moon team members surrounding them from all directions like a tide. Xu Jingming and the other two were so fast that they were like three ghosts in the night. In the blink of an eye, they rushed over 20 meters and killed into the Red Moon team's formation.
When the three of them passed by, many members of the Red Moon team were thrown into the air, and some fell directly, blood splattered everywhere. The ground was covered with blood, which quickly gathered into streams.
"Kill them."
Everyone in the Red Moon Team was a little shocked and angry.
Xu Jingming and the other three are too strong!
The second-rate masters are very strong! Their speed and strength are far superior to the ordinary members of the Red Moon Team, and their weapon skills are even more superb! Even the Red Moon Team members who have reached the "third-rate" level seem clumsy in front of them. The three "second-rate masters" are terrifying when they join forces, and when they are not afraid of death! It is even more terrifying!
Truly invincible! Killing at will! Wherever they passed, members of the Red Moon team were killed!
"These three are crazy!"
There are also five second-rate masters in the Red Moon team, but the stronger they are, the more they cherish their lives! Five against three may not necessarily win. Because the fight between masters is not just a simple comparison of numbers, even if they are both "second-rate", there are still differences in strength.
Can a 500% actual combat bonus be compared to an 800% actual combat bonus?
How can a fearless person be compared to a cowardly person?
"Elder!" The captain of the Red Moon team looked at Elder Feng, "Too many team members died. I can't explain it."
"Leave it to me." Elder Feng nodded calmly.
The leader of the Huayue Gang spent one thousand and two taels of silver to let him participate, just to deal with the tough guy!
boom!
Elder Feng also rushed out! Although the crowd seemed to be large, Elder Feng's figure moved forward like a ghost, quickly approaching Xu Jingming and the other two.
Xu Jingming felt very good at the moment. Amid the fear and madness of the Red Moon Team, and even when axes were thrown at them at close range, Xu Jingming was highly concentrated, his mind sensing all around. He did not need to deliberately calculate every place, but everything around him naturally existed in his mind.
"It is recorded in the 'Space-Time Volume' of the fifth volume of Gun Technique that in space-time, there are all living things and all forms of all things." Xu Jingming had a vague understanding, "These members of the Red Moon Team each have their own wills. Some are brave, some are cunning, some are cowardly, and some are insidious... Aren't they the forms of all living things?"
"Only by mastering the appearance of all living things can we better understand the changes in momentum. In the Flow Scroll, the flow of water can better conform to the changes in momentum!"
I have practiced the five volumes of spearmanship, but I have only read the "Liushui Volume" to get started, and I am confused about the other four volumes.
Until today! Facing the siege, seeing the various states of being, and controlling the four directions with my spiritual consciousness... I finally understood the true meaning of the description in the "Time and Space Scroll".
Once you understand it! As long as you spend some time and effort, you can get started with the "Time and Space Scroll" in ten or eight days.
The most important thing is that Xu Jingming understood the appearance of all living things in the "Space-Time Scroll", and clearly understood the "change of momentum"! It complements the "Flow Scroll"! For a while, Xu Jingming's gun skills, the speed changes, and the coordination of many gun moves. It seems that there is no difference, but in fact the changes are more natural and more in line with the situation on the field.
The same shooting techniques, even the power and speed are sometimes slower, but the efficiency is higher!
As shown on the combat power panel, the actual combat bonus soared from the previous 720% to 850%.
"Hmm? Be careful!"
Just as Xu Jingming was immersed in his insights and the transformation of his marksmanship, he suddenly felt a start.
In his perception, there were indeed some "third-rate masters" who occasionally threatened, but they were all within control. But at this moment, a thin old man approached quickly. Unlike the others, this thin old man was first dressed differently from the Red Moon team, and secondly, he was the only one who rushed up at a very fast speed.
"Be careful." Mr. Lu and Miss Zi Teng also noticed the difference in this thin old man.
The skinny old man rushed over at high speed, and he was the first to kill Mr. Lu, who was the most crazy about "slaughter". Mr. Lu's five knife wheels made the surrounding Red Moon team members dare not approach, and they all made way for an open space.
whoosh.
The skinny old man rushed straight towards Mr. Lu! As he approached, a terrifying mental consciousness erupted!
boom--
Such a terrifying spiritual consciousness, like a physical entity, impacted the surroundings, causing Xu Jingming, Mr. Lu, and Miss Zi Teng to tremble in their hearts.
"Huh?" Mr. Lu quickly threw out two knife wheels to block the thin old man. Miss Zi Teng also threw out flying needles to help her companions. Xu Jingming immediately stepped forward and stabbed with a gun!
A black knife light flashed, easily passing over the knife wheel and blocking the flying needle. The thin old man blocked these hidden weapons easily, even with a sense of freehand brushwork.
"What a wonderful swordsmanship." Xu Jingming controlled the surrounding environment and sensed the appearance of all living things! He could clearly sense the terrifying power of this sword. "My spearmanship, whether it is the "Flowing Scroll" or the initial enlightenment of the "Space-Time Scroll", is good at changes! But this old man's swordsmanship is upright, like a meteorite falling, difficult to break."
All Xu Jingming could do was to adapt to the change and suddenly stab with his spear when the opponent's sword was blocking the flying needles!
"Um?"
The thin old man immediately felt awkward. Xu Jingming's shot happened to be when he was blocking the flying needles and his strength changed! He was forced to change his strength again and used his left hand to block the shot. "This gunman is much more terrifying than the other two."
The knife in his left hand was used to block Xu Jingming's shot, while the knife in his right hand flashed and chopped towards Mr. Lu.
Mr. Lu held two knife wheels in his hands and retreated while resisting.
Ding ding ding!!!
The thin old man's right hand knife was like a phantom, and each time the knife light was very gentle, in the blink of an eye, it chopped three times in a row! The knife light changed three times in a row! Mr. Lu held two knife wheels, and felt that the knife light was too fast, beyond the limit of his nerve reaction. He blocked two knives with his experience, and the third knife still passed his eyebrows, and his consciousness fell into darkness!
Mr. Lu, die!
"He is a first-rate master, retreat!" Miss Zi Teng said immediately.
"retreat."
Xu Jingming also felt nervous and retreated without hesitation!
I just exchanged a move with my opponent! The old man was able to resist him and still kill Mr. Lu... It shows the gap between the two sides.
According to intelligence, first-rate masters have combat bonuses exceeding 1000%. A first-rate master has a combat bonus exceeding 10 times, and a first-rate master has a combat bonus exceeding 12 times, 13 times, or 15 times. Xu Jingming was not sure how big the gap was between him and the thin old man.
But it is certain that the gap is not small! Xu Jingming is still planning to go to the imperial capital, and he is unwilling to fight to the death with his opponent.
"Stop them!" The second-rate masters of the Red Moon team also became brave at this time. With Elder Feng rushing forward, they were also courageous.
But Xu Jingming and Miss Zi Teng were both good at body movement and speed , and they quickly approached the inner house. Only Elder Feng caught up with them.
“Ding ding ding!”
Miss Zi Teng shot out hidden weapons continuously.
Xu Jingming reached over with a spear. The spear was longer than the sword, but its attack range was wider.
Elder Feng used only one of his two swords to block the hidden weapon, and the other sword attacked Xu Jingming, colliding with the spear. Xu Jingming was good at "Flowing Scroll", and the spear did not seek to attack, but only to prevent any leakage! After blocking three swords in a row, he turned around and fled back to the inner house with Miss Zi Teng.
"Charge in." Elder Feng stood outside the inner house wall and gave the order. Even if he was a top-notch expert, he would not rush in rashly.
Members of the Red Moon Team came forward from all directions and kicked the wall one by one. The wall of the inner house collapsed, revealing a group of guards holding shields. These guards stood in front of the house. Xu Jingming, Miss Zi Teng, Miss Qingyu, and the groom were all behind the guards.
"Protect the young master!"
"Kill one and you'll break even. Kill two and you'll make a profit!"
The guards roared ferociously.
There are still 22 guards here! Among them are the third-rate masters of space citizens hired by Chang Yi, as well as the masters of the indigenous people.
"Surround and kill them." The captain of the Red Moon team ordered, and at the same time he walked in front of Elder Feng, "Let's deal with those second-rate masters."
If we allow second-rate experts to kill, it will pose a huge threat to ordinary team members.
"superior."
Led by Elder Feng, five second-rate masters of the Red Moon Team joined forces, and the six of them charged forward like arrows!
If the second-rate masters of the Red Moon Team were allowed to charge forward alone, they would hesitate, but following Elder Feng, they are full of confidence!
"Here they come." Xu Jingming was in front, holding a spear, followed closely by Miss Qingyu, Miss Ziteng, and the groom . They instantly started fighting with Elder Feng and his group.
"Miss Qingyu and the groom are both second-rate masters." Xu Jingming could feel their strength. The four of them worked together to resist the other six! It was estimated that they could only hold out for a short time!
"So many experts?"
Elder Feng was also a little surprised, but the killing intent in his eyes was even stronger, "But they all have to die!"
He avoided Xu Jingming because he realized that this gunman was good at "gun defense" and was afraid that he would have to fight dozens or hundreds of moves before he could kill him. He chose to rush straight to Miss Qingyu, who looked the weakest! When Miss Qingyu attacked him, a light flashed at her waist, and a soft sword drew a curve, cutting towards Elder Feng. Xu Jingming rolled his spear and swept towards Elder Feng while repelling a second-rate master.
The other five second-rate masters of the Red Moon Team are also cooperating with Elder Feng!
At the same time, a large number of Red Moon team members besieged the group of guards. These guards were only as elite as the Red Moon team, with 22 people on one side and more than 400 people on the other! Even though there were only more than a hundred Red Moon team members besieging at the same time, the guards still began to fall one by one.
"Kill, kill, kill." The guards gritted their teeth and fought.
"If I kill two of them, I'll make a profit." These guards had already prepared themselves to fight to the death.
The situation is very unfavorable for Xu Jingming and his team.
Elder Feng's sword light was unpredictable, and the pressure was too great!
"puff."
The groom was the first to collapse and was stabbed in the chest by Elder Feng!
But at this moment——
"call out!"
Xu Jingming suddenly sensed a very terrifying cold light through his telepathy!
I only noticed it when it appeared.
As soon as it appeared, it had already slashed across Elder Feng's body! Elder Feng's reaction was also very fast. He dodged and blocked the knife light at the same time, but he was still a little slow! Elder Feng's right arm flew up.
"Ah!" Elder Feng screamed in pain and quickly retreated in fear.
"escape?"
The downtrodden man, holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, suddenly stepped forward, a little faster than Elder Feng! He was originally an ordinary guard, but once he showed his fangs, he became extremely terrifying.
"Protect the elders!" the captain of the Red Moon team shouted angrily, but their five second-rate masters began to retreat, and Elder Feng dived into the crowd.
call out--
The seemingly downtrodden man was extremely fast. Wherever he passed, a flash of cold light appeared, and a bloodstain appeared on the bodies of the Red Moon team members. Each of them was split in two. In just three steps, he caught up with Elder Feng! The two sides quickly fought!
"Spare my life, and everything will be fine." Elder Feng tried his best to block with his left hand knife, and begged for mercy at the same time, "I'll give you silver, one thousand taels of silver, five thousand taels of silver——"
puff!
A cold light flashed across Elder Feng's neck, leaving a bloody mark. Elder Feng's eyes widened.
This scene made the face of Fenghu Hall Master Cui Xiaodao, who was watching the battle from behind, change drastically: "Elder Feng is dead?"
The masters of the Red Moon team were also trembling with fear.
Xu Jingming and others looked at the shabby man in surprise. He was one of the guards before and looked ordinary, but he turned out to be a first-class master?
"Such an expert would be treated as a guest of honor even if he joined the three major gangs. How could he be willing to be a bodyguard?" Xu Jingming and the others were very surprised. "Chang Yi should be reluctant to hire such an expert. Hiring such an expert would cost much more."
The down-and-out man held a shield and sword, took a step, and his blurry figure appeared in front of Xu Jingming and others.
"The young master has already escaped. Let's go too. The Huayue Gang will definitely send reinforcements." said the destitute man.
"Okay." Everyone responded.
The down-and-out man took Miss Qingyu and others and left along the collapsed wall.
None of the remaining people in the Huayue Gang dared to stop him! After all, everyone could see that this down-and-out man was a top-notch master.
A first-rate expert plus Xu Jingming and four other second-rate experts, can the remaining 400 people of the Red Moon Team stop them? No one is willing to stop them!
"A top-notch expert, where does this top-notch expert come from?" Fenghu Hall Master Cui Xiaodao and the captain of the Red Moon Team couldn't believe it.
"Chang Yi, Chang Yi, you have a first-class guard around you. If you reveal it earlier, how dare we attack you?" Cui Xiaodao felt wronged. This Chang Yi was hiding too deeply. Is it necessary to do so? If you reveal it earlier, wouldn't you avoid the disaster?
"Captain, Elder Feng is dead, what should we do now?" the deputy captain whispered.
"Elder Feng."
Captain Chiyue looked at Elder Feng's glaring corpse. This was a first-rate master! He immediately said, "Report to the leader immediately."
…
In an alley.
The dejected man looked at Miss Qingyu, Xu Jingming, Miss Zi Teng and their guards and said, "Let's separate now."
"Thank you, senior." Miss Qingyu nodded. She looked at the other guards and said, "You all are loyal and righteous. The young master has already instructed that each of you will be given ten taels of silver. Go away. There is no need to follow the young master anymore." As she spoke, Miss Qingyu took out the silver from her bag and gave it to them one by one.
At this moment, only eight guards are still alive.
The eight guards received the silver, clasped their fists, and turned away! They were already used to it, licking blood on the edge of a knife.
"That Huayue Clan expert is as strong as me." The downtrodden man watched the guards leave and said, "So I have to look for an opportunity, and wait for the best moment to strike, and turn the tables in one fell swoop! I can't do anything about the death of your companions."
The poor man felt a little regretful about the death of Mr. Lu and the groom . After all, they were two second-rate masters.
Who cares about Xu Jingming and the others, because they are all space citizen players.
"If it weren't for you, senior, we wouldn't have been able to escape." Miss Qingyu said, "Senior, please follow me to see the young master. The young master will definitely be grateful to you."
"No need."
The destitute man said, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Miss Qingyu, "Miss Qingyu, this is a letter left by Master Chang before he died, you can pass it to your son! Since I have helped once, I have repaid Master Chang's kindness! It is time for me to leave Lanyue City. I believe that with my deterrence, the three major gangs dare not easily attack your son! But you need to be cautious in the future."
Miss Qingyu took the letter.
The destitute man turned and left, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
"It turned out to be Mr. Chang's arrangement?" Miss Zi Teng exclaimed.
"That Mr. Chang did it for his son." Xu Jingming nodded, "Maybe he was worried about his son."
Miss Qingyu held the letter in her hand.
There were four words on the letter: "From my son!"
