Chapter 509: Chapter 505: Revenge

Rumble——

The Sprite Ball Bomb had just been launched.

Before it even hit the ground, it exploded overhead.

Flames soared into the sky, and a violent explosion followed.

Twenty-four mercenaries were taken out by the blast of a single Sprite Ball Bomb, taking away more than half of them, while the remaining ones were all injured.

This was Tom’s method of revenge.

Only Tom dared to play so ruthlessly with the Instant Bomb, releasing it five seconds after starting the Sprite Ball Bomb.

Tom’s Sprite Ball Bomb had a seven-second delay: one second to unpin it, five seconds in his hand, and the last second letting the bomb fly for a while.

If he miscounted by just a second, the Sprite Ball Bomb would explode instantly as soon as thrown.

Never mind injuring the enemy, Tom himself would be blown to pieces with no chance of survival.

Such precise timing, though dangerous, could maximize the bomb’s power, leaving no room for the enemy to even hide.

Almost as soon as the grenade was seen, it exploded overhead, giving no time to duck down.

Such a dangerous operation was something only Tom dared to complete with confidence.

Anyone else might at most delay it by three seconds.

Another second more and no one would dare play with fire this way.

Seeing this, Taotie, hiding in the shadows, silently gave a thumbs-up.

"Old Tom, impressive."

Taotie muttered to himself.

Next second!

Taotie’s eyes turned crimson red, a fierce killing intent rising from his body.

Clang—

Taotie drew the Strange Dagger from his back.

"Everyone, come and die!"

Taotie growled low, leaping out from his hiding spot, swinging the Strange Dagger at the still-breathing Ragnarok mercenaries.

Tom, who was about to throw another Sprite Ball Bomb, saw Taotie surge forward with his blade and silently stopped his action of activating the bomb, cautiously watching the entrance of the Coconut Grove.

If any mercenaries rushed into the Coconut Grove at this moment, threatening Taotie, Tom would fling the Sprite Ball Bomb in his hand.

Providing covering fire for Taotie’s retreat.

Taotie, gripping the Strange Dagger with both hands, swung it swiftly. The gleaming blade whistled through the air, sweeping with the power of sweeping thousands of troops.

Squelch—

The blade flashed, and blood sprayed everywhere.

Three standing mercenaries were instantly cut in half by Taotie’s strike, dying tragically on the spot.

Without pausing, Taotie dashed to the other side, shattering a mercenary’s gun with one swing, then following up with a Mountain-Cleaving Strike to slay the bewildered mercenary in front of him.

In just a few breaths, over a dozen maimed mercenaries were cut down under Taotie’s blade.

"Pah!"

"A bunch of trash!"

Taotie flicked the blood off the Strange Dagger with contempt, insulted them, and turned to leap back into the bushes beside him.

Rustle—

A dense sound of footsteps arose.

Just by the sound, it was evident there were many people.

The Ragnarok Mercenary Group had pursued them.

Tom and Taotie exchanged glances across the distance.

They communicated with their eyes, reaching a preliminary agreement on the strategy to deal with the enemy.

The usual plan!

As soon as the Ragnarok mercenaries stormed into the Coconut Grove, Tom would first give them a Sprite Ball Bomb for a sky-high set meal.

After the explosive fire covered them, while the mercenaries were still dazed by the blast, Taotie would emerge from the shadows, blade in hand, to begin reaping heads.

With such an arrangement, they weren’t afraid of the number of mercenaries.

The more mercenaries rushed into the Coconut Grove, the more Tom’s bombs would blow them up.

The more injured the mercenaries, the more chaotic it would be when Taotie closed in with his blade.

And the more chaotic the scene, the more hesitant the mercenaries would be to shoot.

Taotie would be safer during the slaughter, with no worry of being shot in the back.

As the footsteps came closer, Tom tightened his grip on the Sprite Ball Bomb in his hand.

As soon as those mercenaries showed themselves, Tom would unhesitatingly feed them an Instant Explosion.

And he was generous, not holding back, letting the damned mercenaries have their fill.

Soon, the Ragnarok mercenaries appeared, and Tom quickly scanned them, counting thirty-six, three fully-staffed squads.

Tom sneered repeatedly; the numbers were a bit much. The power of a single Sprite Ball Bomb might not be enough, so he pulled out another Sprite Ball Bomb, activating both simultaneously, and began a silent countdown.

After five seconds!

Tom flicked both Sprite Ball Bombs in his hands, which only had a one-second delay, and threw them out.

Tom’s timing was just right.

Two Sprite Ball Bombs cut through the air, reached the mercenaries’ heads, and exploded the moment they started descending.

With two violent explosions, the mercenaries screamed in agony all at once.

Over a dozen mercenaries had their heads exploded by shrapnel without having time to react.

The remaining twenty-plus mercenaries were also taken down instantly.

By the end of the explosions, fewer than ten mercenaries were left standing.

And they all were injured, in miserable condition, with missing ears or half a face, considered the least wounded among them.

Taotie, who had long been ready to strike, saw this and immediately emerged from hiding, swinging the Strange Dagger to begin crazily taking heads, sending the mercenaries to the afterlife.

Seeing this, Tom did not come out to assist Taotie but held a Sprite Ball Concussion Grenade and a Sprite Ball Bomb, ready to assist Taotie at any time.

Taotie was killing smoothly, the Strange Dagger flying up and down, mercenaries falling under his blade one by one.

Bang bang bang—

Just then, intense gunfire rang out.

Taotie was startled, immediately performing a lazy roll into the bushes to the side.

Tom was also startled, quickly looking towards the sound of the gunfire, seeing that a squad of Ragnarok mercenaries had flanked them.

The gunfire just now was the mercenaries firing at Taotie.

Seeing this, Tom felt a rush of urgency.

The Sprite Ball Bomb in his hand was immediately thrown towards that squad of mercenaries.

This time, Tom didn’t time the Instant Explosion.

Tom’s goal wasn’t to injure the enemy.

But to distract them and provide an opportunity for Taotie to escape.

Boom—

Two Sprite Balls exploded simultaneously.

The Concussion Grenade and bomb intertwined, the firelight and dazzling white light instantly illuminated the entire Coconut Grove as bright as day.

Ah—

The caught-off-guard mercenaries screamed in pain as the white light swept across their eyes.

Seeing this, Tom’s eyes flashed with a cold light, immediately pulling out a Sprite Ball Bomb from his pocket, activating it before throwing it.

Bang bang bang—

As Tom threw the bomb, a burst of gunfire was heard, bullets spraying around Tom.

Startled, Tom quickly retreated.

With a tactical roll, he left his hiding spot.

Next second!

Bang bang bang—

Another burst of bullets sprayed through.

A dozen bullets instantly hit the spot where Tom had just hidden.

Just a bit closer and Tom would have been riddled with bullets.

Tom patted his chest in relief, not daring to linger, immediately dodging to the left as another burst of bullets almost grazed his rear.
