Chapter 989: 976 Chapter: Clan Assessment (Extra Update Notice) Chapter 989: 976 Chapter: Clan Assessment (Extra Update Notice) “Don’t come any closer!”
In the narrow alley between two residential buildings, a woman who had just finished work and wore a look of exhaustion leaned against the wall, her face filled with terror,
because in front of her was a man whose eyes emitted a crimson glow in the night, saliva continuously dripping from the corners of his mouth as he approached.
“Heh heh, human, you can try to run. It might add a little fun for me before my meal,” the ghoul, resembling a street thug, sneered as he cornered the human in the dim alleyway.
“Ah—” When the woman saw the monster, with three swaying Kakugan tails behind him, drawing closer, she finally couldn’t hold back a scream that was utterly exhausted.
“Don’t waste your strength. This alley is my hunting ground. No sound you make can escape from here,” the ghoul, irritated by the woman’s scream, audibly expressed his impatience.
“Please, spare me!” The woman cloaked by the shadow of death had tear streaks on her face and began to tremble uncontrollably.
“Hmph, you humans are so useless!” Seeing the prey in front of him, the ghoul smiled coldly, for he noticed a puddle forming and gradually expanding between the woman’s legs, “Facing death, you fully expose the weakness in your nature. It’s unbelievable that such creatures as you could ever dominate this world.”
“Mr. Ghoul, doesn’t it hurt your back to talk about weakness when you stand on the side with absolute power?” At that moment, a mocking voice resounded leisurely.
The ghoul suddenly looked up, only to see a figure in white leap from the roof of a nearby residential building. During the descent, streaks of light flew out, catching up with him and attaching to his body.
Boom!
“White clothes!” Seeing the Star Armor Master who had just appeared, kneeling on one knee and slowly standing up before the prey he had been eyeing, the ghoul’s face turned extraordinarily ugly.
“Star Armor Master!” Unlike the ghoul, the woman who thought she would be eaten by a creature of urban legends looked at the Star Armor Master with his incredibly cool entrance and shouted in surprise and delight.
And hearing the startled cries before and after, the Star Armor Master who deliberately created such a cool entry was utterly satisfied.
“Mr. Ghoul, you said humans show their weakness when facing death, but you ghouls don’t seem to be much better. I’ve seen plenty of ghouls kneeling and begging for mercy!”
“You…”
Whoosh!
Just as the ghoul tried to come up with a retort, a beam of purple light shot from afar, piercing through the back of his head.
Crack!
In an instant, the head of the unconventional ghoul exploded like a watermelon, with red and white matter scattering all around, then the headless body swayed and collapsed to the ground.
“…” The Star Armor Master in white stood dumbfounded, watching as the purple streak of light in the night sky gradually dissipated, his heart a stampede of mythical creatures. He hadn’t even finished showing off, and it had just begun!
…
“Heh heh, that’s what you get for showing off. Now how’s that for uncomfortable?” Meanwhile, over a thousand meters away from the alley on top of a skyscraper, Muria shifted her gaze from the sight of her Purple Night Sniper Rifle and revealed a malevolently amused grin.
Muria had seen everything through her scope, including the Star Armor Master’s showy entrance, so she deliberately waited a while, and when he was halfway through his grand display, she decisively took the shot and killed his scene-stealing target.
“Time to split! Time to split!”
After snatching a kill, Muria packed up her sniper rifle and leaped off the skyscraper, swiftly leaving the scene, as she was not yet ready to face the Secret Agency that cleansed the city of Different Species.
No more than five minutes after her departure, a group clad in white coats rushed up to the rooftop, arriving at the very spot where Muria had been sniping.
“This guy must be insane, interrupting us every time!” A youth with an inexperienced look picked up a shell casing from the floor, his face showing frustration.
Do you have any idea how much preparation is needed for a novice Star Armor Master to show off? First, finding a fixed hunting spot for a Different Species, then moving the Star Armor to the designated location before the ghoul began hunting, and lastly, timing the jump from a high place to rapidly complete the arming of the Star Armor before landing.
Each time you try to impress in front of a Different Species, it takes a considerable amount of time, effort, and also courage, risking even life itself.
And just like that, his performance had barely begun when his intended object of show-off was shot dead, leaving him incredibly frustrated. It was like being full of anticipation, everything prepared, only to be told by your girlfriend that her period had started, an excruciatingly uncomfortable feeling.
“There’s nothing you can do about it. If you’re not happy about it, you can try arguing with that big young master!”
“If you guys are willing to back me up, I might just confront him,” the youth with the young-looking face responded to his colleague.
“It’s you who’s frustrated, so of course, you should go challenge him on your own. It wouldn’t look right for all of us to gang up on him.”
“A bunch of cowards, you’re just worried about his identity, aren’t you? What’s there to be afraid of?”
“Since you’re not afraid, why don’t you go challenge him yourself?”
“I can’t beat them!” the young man said brazenly, revealing the most embarrassing truth without a hint of shame. “They’re wearing Phoenix armor, which is God knows how many times better than this cheap, standard-issue Star armor I have.”
“You’re really a complete coward!”
“How is that being a coward? That’s called being aware of one’s own limitations. Knowing you can’t win and still challenging someone to a duel is just asking for a beating, isn’t it?”
…
“So, did you go after a kid’s prey again?”
In the elegantly furnished tea room, a blonde female lounging on a sofa smiled cheekily at the young man entering and asked.
“It was the information you gave me. Don’t you know the outcome?” Muria glanced at Golden Dragon Mother. Most of the Different Species he had eliminated hidden in human cities were based on information provided by Golden Dragon Mother.
The source of Golden Dragon Mother’s information was the secret agency’s database in Dovalir that cleansed Different Species, which seemed to result in Muria frequently coming into contact with members of the city’s secret agency.
“Haha, just asking!”
“Where’s my father?” Muria asked about his Titan father’s whereabouts, who had arrived in the city over half a month ago and then obtained a multitude of Martial Arts Classics from him.
“He’s gone off to deduce martial techniques again,” Golden Dragon Mother said somewhat helplessly. Ansol aimed to create a set of perfect martial arts secrets, devoid of any flaws.
In Ansol’s eyes, every set of martial arts secrets he saw was riddled with holes, the only difference being in their number, and these were undoubtedly intolerable to him.
“That’s not too bad,” Muria said with a smile on hearing that his father was currently deducting martial techniques. He knew his father had a bit of an obsession.
Of course, he did too, but he was lazy. Without his father, Muria would have to deduce and perfect a set of secrets himself, but now with his father tirelessly working on it day and night, he could afford to relax a little.
“It’s good for you since you’re waiting to reap the benefits,” she said.
“Aren’t you the same?” Muria retorted.
“Haha!” Golden Dragon Mother laughed, her Star talent might be high, but she wasn’t planning to give up this path. Compared to a Star Armor Master, martial artists faced fewer constraints.
Take Ansol as an example; he could leave human society and wander alone in the wilderness for five years, but if it were a Star Armor Master, they would have become useless a long time ago.
Star armors require maintenance and repair. A Star Armor Master fighting continuously and unpredictably in the wilderness, without the needed upkeep for their Star Armor, would find their combat effectiveness steadily declining, eventually ending up as food in the belly of a Native species.
…
“Sss, that young master has entered that restaurant again, completely unaware of what he’s doing in there.” A tall, thin man placed down the binoculars in his hands in a high building not far from the restaurant owned by Golden Dragon Mother.
“No matter what happens in there, it’s none of our business. Our only responsibility is to ensure his safety, and I reckon that place is one of the safest in the city.” A burly man spoke with impatience and a trace of fear on his face.
“So, we don’t interfere.”
“Alright, Owl, stop looking. If you bring that Monster from last time back here, I’ll make sure you feel the same pain that he inflicted on me.”
On hearing this, the dozen or so people of varying heights, builds, and genders, all with an air of soldierly hardness about them, paused involuntarily.
They remembered the first time they followed that young master into the restaurant, encountering that black haired man dressed in a Black Robe, with an imposing presence like a Native species lord.
“Is that man really human?” A dark-faced, brawny man rubbed his chest, unable to forget the battle sparked by peeping at Jenos and angering that man.
“Probably!”
…
“Young Master Jelos, the Clan has recognized your martial arts Talent, but the Clan has yet to witness your combat Talent in martial arts.”
“So?” Muria, now back home, looked at the suddenly contacting butler, Paris.
“The Clan has decided to issue you an assessment mission. If you complete the task, the Clan will increase the allocation of Resources for you. Of course, failure won’t affect your current resource distribution.”
“What’s the assignment?”
“Using close combat Star Armor, clear out a gathering point of Different Species in your city!”
