Volume 2: Scales in the Pond Chapter 109: Gluttony, Energy Absorption
The meeting room was in a mess.
Gunfire spurted out and metal bullets swept across the sky.
There were only two subordinates left beside the two high priests, Gluttony and Lust. The other two were already lying on the ground, shot in multiple places, and were dead.
The shadow soldiers did not come empty-handed. Except for the shadow soldiers who were good at close combat and chose weapons such as samurai swords, they emerged from the shadows of the enemy with stun grenades to launch sneak attacks. The other shadow soldiers held VSS rifles using subsonic ammunition and shot at them crazily indoors.
The power of the stun bomb is not that great, but if a psychic is hit head-on by one indoors, most psychics will lose the ability to resist and be shot into a sieve.
The High Priest of Lust and the High Priest of Gluttony were both protecting their remaining subordinates. Neither of them was afraid of bullets, but these two subordinates could not withstand too many rounds.
The Lustful High Priestess was shot in the body, but the bullet seemed to be hitting a drum, and would be bounced away due to its extreme toughness, failing to hurt her.
She was agile and moved quickly in the narrow space of the conference room, using the simplest and most direct hand-to-hand combat techniques. Her super-tough skin would turn into a sharp blade when attacking, covered with silver light, and she could easily cut off a gun barrel with her hand knife.
The Gluttonous High Priest protected his two men behind him and swung a chair leg to beat up the black shadow soldiers who were slashing at him with knives.
He let the shadow soldier's knife chop at him, but it was like chopping at a piece of extremely tough rubber, the blade could not advance an inch .
Bullets flew in one after another, hitting the Gluttonous High Priest, and all of them hit the target, stopping on his skin, and then falling down intact, as if they were powerless.
The two subordinates he protected were not completely immune to swords and guns, but when they were occasionally shot or stabbed, their skin and flesh would vibrate, dissolving and absorbing the force.
The Lustful High Priest moved swiftly and agilely, and in no time he killed several shadow soldiers, snatched their guns, and threw them to the subordinates of the Gluttony High Priest.
Her subordinates did not have the ability of the Seed of Gluttony to absorb impact, so they died instantly under the stun bombs and crazy shooting.
The subordinates of the Gluttonous High Priest caught the guns thrown at them, while he himself fought the enemy with his bare hands.
"what's the situation?"
After repelling the first wave of attacks, the Gluttonous High Priest had not yet fully recovered from the dizziness and tinnitus. He had just protected his subordinates behind him and had endured a lot of flashes and noises, as well as the first round of strafing.
"I don't know, probably someone who is jealous."
"Is he in cahoots with the people in Japan? Or is he one of them?" Seeing that all the shadow soldiers were dressed as samurai, he couldn't help but come to this conclusion.
The lustful high priest looked at the corpses on the ground and felt a little annoyed. The two psychics, one with special enhanced abilities and the other who could help her escape, were unexpectedly killed by the sudden attack of the shadow soldiers.
The Gluttony lineage has thick skin and flesh, and can absorb kinetic energy, supernatural energy, etc., converting it into a fat-like substance to increase their body size and enhance their body functions. As long as they are not hit by too many bullets in a short period of time, they can hold on, so all members survive.
Her relationship with Gluttony was not very good, and she did not think that Gluttony's ability allowed him to escape when facing danger, so in this situation, she would rather look for Pride.
Apart from speeding up time, he is also very good at running.
"Let's leave first." she shouted, because in the shadows around her, pairs of red eyes lit up and dark shadow soldiers reappeared.
These things are not alive and cannot be killed, and they don’t want to be dragged here.
The lustful high priest had just walked towards the door when he suddenly took off from the spot, his head inserted into the ceiling and hung there like a sausage.
"!"
The Gluttonous Priest suddenly felt dangerous because of the silence.
All the newly appeared black-clad warriors were standing in the corners and edges, watching them quietly without launching any attacks.
And the Lustful High Priest was suddenly hanging from the ceiling.
He felt that the Lustful High Priestess was most likely not hanging there willingly, but was hit by an uppercut or something like that.
But he didn't see what the attack was.
The Soul-Eating Blood Robe possessed the body and transformed into a robe engraved with the symbol of gluttony.
Air cannon?
Telekinesis?
He couldn't tell what supernatural power caused it.
His two subordinates were also on high alert, with beads of sweat on their foreheads.
"Official priest, invisible, right at the door." One of his subordinates reminded in Thai.
This subordinate was not specialized in combat, but he had a rare ability of mental detection, which enabled him to understand the battlefield environment, so he had been intentionally protecting him just now.
The Gluttonous Priest understood and said in Japanese: "Jealousy, why don't you show up when you are here?"
He saw so many black warriors and judged that the jealous person now might be from that side.
"What are you barking at?"
But unexpectedly, the answer he received was in Chinese.
The Gluttonous High Priest immediately switched to Chinese. "Jealous, we can discuss this. I'll give you whatever you want, and let me go."
Although he has a slight accent and is not very fluent, he is able to communicate well.
It seems that the chief priests are all talented people, and each of them can speak several foreign languages. Qiao Ji is lagging behind them in this regard.
The Lustful High Priest was hanging on the ceiling. The people around the Gluttony High Priest whispered to him in Thai that the Lustful High Priest was not dead, but was not . Her jaw was shattered and her brain was severely hit. She was not dead because of her strong physique and the multifunctional Lust Seed that was healing her injuries.
Qiao Ji glanced over there and saw more than fifty shadow soldiers engaging in close combat with the arrogant high priest.
Then, a figure in red appeared at the door, and the Soul-Devouring Blood Robe had partially turned into the shape of armor .
A portal appeared next to Qiao Ji. He took out several sets of superpower shielding handcuffs from it and threw them on the ground.
"Put it on."
I will interrogate your base first and salvage a few more souls. In consideration of your honest confession, I can let you live a few more minutes.
When the short Gluttonous High Priest saw the supernatural handcuffs on the ground, his eyes suddenly became fierce.
sniff
He tore off his tattered shirt, revealing a muscular body covered with tattoos, a slit on his abdomen, and a circle of subcutaneous lumps around his waist, like a belt.
He covered his eyes with a piece of cloth, and the crack in his abdomen suddenly opened, revealing an eyeball, which was also the seed of original sin of gluttony.
He said, "Jealous, I am willing to listen to you, but not like this."
Being a subordinate is fine, but he admits defeat.
But wearing psychic-blocking handcuffs?
God knows if you will make me a jealous person!
Being able to become the High Priest of Gluttony, his talent can be considered top-notch. His special ability is kinetic energy absorption. It was because of this that he was favored by the President and was given the Seed of Gluttony to make him even stronger.
Qiao Ji shook his head and said, "You don't want to live a few more minutes."
