Chapter 143 - 143 45 Curse·Love·Heart_2

143: Chapter 45 Curse·Love·Heart_2 143: Chapter 45 Curse·Love·Heart_2 The young man in the suit arched his body backward, extending his arms.

The transaction with the Curse Scale had granted him an all-rounded enhancement in physical fitness.

Bullets grazed the cuffs of his suit, causing only mild burns.

“The cost is to take on others’ injuries,” he pulled the trigger, and the bullet flew forward, piercing through the third person’s shoulder, “The return is to reflect my own scars.”

White spectral robes fluttered, and the scales tipped towards the gloomier side.

Cries of terror came from both sides of the entrance, one person’s body exploded with innumerable wounds deep enough to reveal bone, while another’s flesh melted as if rotting away!

Shiyu Lianyi stepped forward, his left fist striking out, with protruding knuckles hitting the strong man’s throat squarely, completely crushing the Adam’s apple.

In but a moment’s breath, three men in black lay on the ground!

A fourth ambusher leaped from behind a sofa, a faint green orb of light in his hand!

The young man in the suit sidestepped to avoid it, shooting the ambusher in the flank.

The impact of the bullet knocked the man down, and Shiyu Lianyi followed up with a roundhouse kick.

His leg lashed out like a whip, the tip of his foot striking the man’s temple, defeating him with a single blow!

A fifth man in black jumped down from the second floor, his submachine gun firing wildly.

The young man in the suit retreated from the recoil of his kick, aiming at the fifth man’s wrist.

The gunman immediately bent down to avoid it, but unfortunately, one of the countless bullets he had just fired “coincidentally” grazed the young man’s leg…

“The cost is to take on others’ injuries, the return is to reflect my own scars.”

The young man in the suit repeated his trick.

The fifth man in black was charred all over and fell down without a sound.

Now, there were no more opponents in the spacious hall, and Kardesia had only just caught up from behind.

She glanced over the bloody scene in the hall and nodded, saying, “You’re actually a top-secret agent cultivated in secret by Zero Island?”

Gongsun had said something similar before.

Your two lines of thinking coincidentally share some similarities.

“My background is…

a bit more cruel.”

While responding, he directed his gaze towards the stairway leading to the second floor.

Eight stairs spiral down from the hall, each backed by a tightly shut door.

It wasn’t a structure you would normally find in a building; it was likely a trap set by that Spiritual Image Mage.

“The cost is—”

“You know, Lianyi,” the blonde girl interrupted his declaration, “This meaningless staircase and the previous trick that inverted the labels—done by the same guy, right?”

“I think so…

Kardesia?”

“So it’s an illusion.

This thing—”

Kardesia clenched her teeth and crouched down, slamming her hands onto the floor.

“Just burn it all down, and it becomes useless!!!”

Eight pillars of flame, thick as tree trunks, rose up, burning the stairs to ashes!

The columns merged above the ceiling, cascading down like a tide, scouring the entire area outside the second-floor doors.

Then, amid a scream, all the stairs vanished, leaving only a short man engulfed in flames falling from the sky!

Kardesia gasped for breath, patting her hands with a sense of immense satisfaction.

“Done!

How do you guys usually deal with these kinds of abilities?”

The young man in the suit thought for a moment and replied with a smile.

“I think your approach is more efficient.”

In contrast to having to figure out a solution, Kardesia’s reserves of strength turned out to be more surprising than he had expected.

To be able to unleash such powerful attacks after such a chaotic battle, what an abundant stamina.

Sensing her companion’s examining gaze, the blonde girl proudly flipped her hair.

“I’m a Superpower User with energy emission.

How could I burn out on something like this?”

Clearly disliking fighting, yet using the term “getting by”…

He kept his thoughts to himself; the priority now was resolving the fight.

After the onslaught of flames, the traps laid by the Spiritual Image Mage had been forcefully broken.

No matter what preparations had been made, only a charred staircase and a tightly shut iron door remained in the building.

The Skeleton Leader didn’t use his powers again.

At first glance, it seemed the gang leader had given up resistance, but it was actually a wise decision: Lianyi’s two previous attacks had proven he possessed the power to counter the Wing of Death; the Skeleton Leader wouldn’t risk exposing his vulnerability to the enemy again.

He was left with only two options: either fight to the death or take the opportunity to retreat.

Which path would the Skeleton Leader choose?

The answer was self-evident.

Almost all the organization’s fighting force was deployed, leaving the leader of the Wing of Death no other choice at this moment.

If the Skeleton Leader chose to flee, he would have no ground to stand on.

The head of a brutal gang would rather die than face such a pathetic end.

He gripped the iron door handle, attempting to twist it.

The door wasn’t locked.

“Kardesia, stand aside first.”

The blonde girl did as told, and the young man, with a gun in each hand, sidestepped and thrust open the door!

“Ah ah ah ah—!”

Hoarse screams and the sound of the iron door crashing against the wall went up simultaneously as the man with the skeletal mask protected his front with a mechanical arm and charged forward like a mad bull!

Gun bullets flew at his head, sparking off the Skeleton Leader’s mask and deflecting aside.

As he was about to get hit by the Skeleton Leader, Shiyu Lianyi rolled to the side, firing his handgun at the ankles of the Skeleton Leader from the ground!

Clang!

The bullets squished into a pile against the tough bulletproof gear, making no headway.

Using conventional weaponry against this fully armored man was pointless!

“It’s no use!”

Lianyi missed his chance again as the Skeleton Leader roared and swung his fist!

The silvery mechanical arm missed the young man’s clothes by a whisker, smashing into the second floor, pulverizing it.

Both men tumbled down into the first-floor hall!
