By the time Wesley reached the front, the dozen or so people including his subordinates had mostly been killed by the gray cat. Only two or three people were still struggling to hold on.
Seeing Wesley charging at it with a savage expression, the gray cat glanced at him with a grin and dodged to the side. It controlled the gray mist to continue slaughtering the rest of the people. More than ten seconds later, the last subordinate also died with a scream.
At this point, the subordinates that Fox and Wesley had brought were all wiped out.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Wesley's forehead and cheek muscles twitched. He was obviously very angry.
"Big guy, it's your turn next."
The gray cat said with a smile as if it didn't notice Wesley's furious expression.
"Stupid bitch, I'm going to kill you!"
Wesley shouted angrily and charged out like a mad lion. The energy around his body burst out and gathered on his fists in an instant. He smashed out like a cannonball.
"A man with a mouth full of vulgarities is not welcome."
The gray cat was not afraid. It controlled the gray mist to surge toward Wesley like a flood and said with some strength left in it.
Boom!
In his fury, the power of Wesley's punch could be said to be unparalleled, directly dispersing the gray fog that was attacking him. However, the dispersed gray fog only paused for a moment before continuing to surround him and surge towards him.
The scene of his subordinates dying was still vivid in his mind. Wesley didn't dare let the gray mist get close to him. He could only withdraw and retreat, but the gray mist chased after him like maggots attached to bones.
On the other side, Fox, who had lost his weapon, was also in a desperate situation. Most of his strength came from his blade, and without his steel blade, his combat strength was immediately reduced. In the blink of an eye, he was cut multiple times by Lin Lichuan and was covered in wounds.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, Fox was terrified. He struggled to hold on while shouting loudly:
"False White!
I'm a member of the secret police. If you kill me, the second prince will never let you go! "
"You talk too much."
Lin Lichuan dismissed Sasuke's Shikai and restored the blade to its original state with a thought. Then, he released Hyorinmaru.
The air temperature in the harbor dropped sharply in an instant.
The fear on Fox's face deepened as he sensed the chilliness coming at him. He no longer had any desire to continue fighting. He let out a strange cry and turned around to escape.
However, before he could run a few steps, he heard a loud and deafening dragon roar coming from behind him.
Shocked, he looked back and saw a giant frost dragon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. A terrifying chill poured over him like a flood, instantly drowning him.
In the blink of an eye, a sparkling ice sculpture appeared in the middle of the harbor.
After taking care of Fox, Lin Lichuan dispelled the Beginner Release and turned to look at the gray cat. He discovered that the girl was forcing Wesley into a corner and holding the upper hand.
Wesley's strength was slightly lower than Fox's, and his bio-energy level was around Level 17. In terms of pure strength, he was actually about the same as the gray cat, but his abilities were completely restrained, and he didn't dare to let the gray mist get close to him at all. In this situation, he was already doing his best to avoid the gray mist, much less touch the gray cat.
Seeing this, Lin Lichuan couldn't help but let out a sigh.
After the gray cat materialized, its ability to use the Zanpakuto's abilities was far greater than his. In the gray cat's hands, the gray mist seemed to have a true spirit, and it could be manipulated as if it was its own arm. Even if it encountered an opponent a level higher than it, it still had a chance of winning.
"Even the gray cat has this kind of strength. I wonder how strong the Zanpakutos like Hyorinmaru and Senbonzakura will be after they materialize?"
A trace of anticipation flashed across Lin Lichuan's mind, but he could only think about it at this point. It cost 100 crystals to exchange for a divine body, and it was too expensive. Right now, he only had less than 200 crystals left, and he still needed to draw a Nightmare Card. He couldn't use them casually.
While he was thinking, the gray cat and Wesley's battle had reached its climax. After punching the gray mist several times in a row, the gray mist finally caught up to Wesley and surrounded him in an instant. When he broke out of the gray mist again, there were countless bloody wounds on his body.
However, what shocked Wesley even more was that he had lost sight of the gray cat.
In the next second, a whistling sound came from above his head. Wesley's expression changed drastically, and he wanted to throw himself to the side without hesitation. But just as he moved, a heavy blow suddenly hit his head, and he fell forward with a muffled groan.
Lin Lichuan saw everything clearly from the side. Taking advantage of Wesley's vision being obstructed by the gray fog, the gray cat jumped up from the ground and nimbly climbed up a nearby container. It swiftly circled around to Wesley's side and bent its knees. In the next second, it jumped high into the air like a spring that had been compressed to the limit and landed a heavy kick on Wesley's head.
This move was out of Lin Lichuan's expectations. He saw the shadow of Bai Zhan in it, and he did not expect the gray cat to be so skilled in physical arts as well.
Even if Wesley was a martial practitioner and had an extraordinary physique, he could not immediately catch his breath after receiving such a heavy blow to the head. He lay on the ground and could not react. It was at this time the gray cat stretched out its hand, and the surrounding gray mist gathered towards its palm as if it was being pulled by an invisible force. It reformed into a long sword and turned into a flash of lightning that stabbed towards the back of Wesley's head.
Psst!
The soft sound of a sharp blade piercing through flesh rang. As if struck by lightning, Wesley's body abruptly froze and then slowly went limp.
"Phew ~"
Wheeze exhaled playfully and allowed the longsword to disintegrate into gray mist before slowly dispersing into the air. Wheeze, on the other hand, turned its head to look at Lin Lichuan. The corners of its lips curled up into a brilliant smile.
"Well done."
Lin Lichuan walked to the gray cat's side and looked at Wesley's corpse. After thinking for a moment, he crouched down and searched the corpse. A moment later, he withdrew his hand, and there was a poker card in his palm.
'Queen of Spades'
.....
Half an hour later, Lin Lichuan brought the gray cat back to the residence of the military bureau.
The heavily guarded military bureau was nothing to the duo. There were not many Transcendents in the remote Western Sheng City, and it was not much better than Linyang City. There were not even a few Silver Ranks, so naturally it could not stop the duo from coming and going as they pleased.
After returning to the room, Lin Lichuan immediately took out the password-protected box he obtained from Fox and placed it flat on the table. Then, he violently broke the password-protected lock on the box.
The gray cat also came over curiously at this time, ready to take a look.
Crack!
As the box slowly opened, wisps of cold white mist escaped from inside the box. When the lid was completely opened, the duo looked inside and discovered that the box was covered with a layer of black velvet. Embedded on top of it were glass syringes.
These syringes were only the size of an index finger, and were small and exquisite. There were five syringes in a row, and ten syringes in two rows. They lay quietly on the black velvet, and the light red liquid inside shone with a hazy luster under the light.
Lin Lichuan was slightly surprised. He did not expect that the password-protected box would contain such things.
Out of curiosity, he reached out and picked up a syringe and examined it carefully. When he flipped it over and saw the words' QH-04 'printed on the glass syringes, he could not help but reveal an expression of' as expected '.
When he found the identity card unique to the Card Cards on Wesley's corpse, Lin Lichuan had already guessed that the contents of the password-protected box were definitely not meteorites. Now that he saw it, it was as expected.
"QH-04 syringes, huh … I wonder how they are related to the KH-03 syringes and the KH experiment subjects we encountered before?" A puzzled thought flashed through his mind.
"Master, what are these things?" The gray cat poked at the syringes in the box curiously.
"Some medicine."
Lin Lichuan was halfway through his words when an idea suddenly flashed through his mind. The KH-03 syringes had the effect of temporarily greatly increasing one's strength, but the price was that the user would fall into a state of weakness after using it. Wasn't this the same as' Berserk 'to a certain extent?
The first letter of Berserk just happened to be KH, and the numbers behind it should be referring to which generation of the syringes were developed, and so on. The meaning of QH-04's name was probably more or less the same.
"QH … strengthening, huh." Lin Lichuan muttered to himself.
At the side, the gray cat persevered and asked, "What medicine is it?"
Coming back to his senses, Lin Lichuan answered casually, "It should be a medicine that can strengthen one's strength."
The gray cat's eyes immediately lit up when it heard this. It said joyfully, "Then let's use it quickly!"
Lin Lichuan shook his head, "We can't use it. This syringes might have some kind of side effects. It's not too late to use it after the investigation."
After saying this, he closed the password-protected box and put it back into his backpack. He was going to discuss it with Lin Zhenyi the next day.
After doing all this, he turned to look at the gray cat. Suddenly, he remembered that the gray cat was also a problem.
Could he retract the materialized Soul Slasher?
The gray cat didn't feel embarrassed at all when Lin Lichuan stared at it. Instead, a sly light flashed through its eyes. It put one hand behind its head and the other on its waist and made a seductive pose.
"Do I look good, master?"
After spending half a day with the gray cat, Lin Lichuan had already experienced the gray cat's eccentric personality. Seeing the gray cat's reaction, he was unmoved and directly asked the question in his mind.
"Sigh, you're chasing me back so soon."
The gray cat's disappointment immediately overflowed, but it still answered honestly, "I can turn back into the Soul Slasher."
"But master, if you want to use my Shikai again, you'll have to dispel the transformation first. This way, you'll have to use another transformation if you want to materialize me again."
"Is that so?"
Lin Lichuan frowned slightly. When he came back to himself, he nodded slightly at the gray cat and said, "Turn back into the Soul Slasher first. I'll release you when we return to Linyang City."
"Then master must hurry. It wasn't easy to materialize and move freely. It's too uncomfortable to turn back into a motionless Soul Slasher again." The gray cat complained, but it still did as it was told.
There was a flash of black light, and the tall cat girl turned back into the Soul Slasher in an instant. It fell to the ground with a clang.
Lin Lichuan quickly reached out and caught it. He held the hilt for a while and felt it for a while. Sure enough, the feeling he had before was gone. It was as if the Zanpakuto had become an independent existence.
"Thank goodness I didn't materialize Hyorinmaru or Senbonzakura, or I would've lost a transformation."
He shook his head and put the Soul Slasher back into his backpack.
