Altar of Monsters - Chapter22

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With one fleeing and the other two chasing, the three of them quickly rushed out of the abandoned park and ran on the road.

Dense fireballs constantly attacked the two of them. Although they played a role in blocking them, the effect was not obvious. The distance between the two of them and Fang Ping was still closing.

In front of them, a railing appeared in front of Fang Ping. Outside the railing was a vertical fort that was thirty to forty meters high.

"This is great!"

Fang Ping was excited. He quickly ran over and placed his hand on the railing. With a push, he flipped over the railing and jumped down the fort.

Whoosh!

The wind whistled in his ears. His body was in the air and there was no support under his feet. Fang Ping's heart was beating wildly.

With a height of thirty-four meters, his chances of survival were not high. But he did not hesitate to jump down.

Because he had a trump card that could save his life!

Whoosh!

His whole body burned with orange flames. No, to be precise, he turned into orange flames. He turned into an orange flaming man and fell from the sky.

This was his trump card that could save him from falling from a high altitude!

The ability of the Flaming Fruit had the property of being immune to physical attacks. With the property of being a flame, even if he fell from a high altitude, it would be difficult to hurt him.

In fact, if he was strong enough, he could be like the other holder of the Flaming Fruit ability, Sabot. He could rely on the recoil force of the flames from his legs to fly in the air.

But with his current strength, it was difficult to provide that kind of recoil force to fly in the air. So he could only choose to turn his body into a flame to be immune to the physical impact of falling to the ground.

Boom!

Fang Ping, who had turned into a flame, fell to the ground. The flames splashed and scattered, but they quickly gathered again and returned to being Fang Ping.

Jumping from a height of thirty to forty meters, as expected, he did not suffer any damage.

The ability of the Logia fruit to turn into an element was, to a certain extent, very abnormal.

Looking up, he saw that Bai Gang and He Chong had appeared by the railing. They were looking down with obvious hesitation. Obviously, they did not have the ability to turn into an element like Fang Ping. They could not ignore a height of thirty to forty meters.

"Are you confident?"

He Chong asked Bai Gang.

His ability was the same as Fang Ping's. He wasn't good at strengthening his body. Without elementalization, jumping down from here was no different from committing suicide, so he could only place his hopes on Yu Baigang.

"It's too high. I'm afraid even I …"

Hearing He Chong's words, Bai Gang quickly shook his head.

What kind of joke was this? His current physical strength was indeed far beyond that of an ordinary person, but it was not at the level of Superman. If he jumped down from here without any cushioning, although he would not die, he would definitely be seriously injured.

"We can only go around from other places!"

The two of them decisively chose to take a detour. Clearly, they were not prepared to risk their lives to kill Fang Ping.

Whoosh!

Seeing that the two of them seemed to be preparing to take a detour, Fang Ping did not dare to stay where he was and quickly left.

After running for a few hundred meters, a road appeared in front of him.

It just so happened that a taxi was coming. He hurriedly flagged it down and told it a place. Then, the taxi quickly left.

The taxi drove for half an hour before it stopped in front of a hospital. Enduring the pain, he walked into the hospital for treatment.

His hands were severely scalded and his right arm had more than a dozen stitches. Conservatively speaking, he would need to rest for at least half a month.

After leaving the hospital, he hailed a taxi. Another half an hour later, he appeared on the street far away from the hospital.

He could not go home. He could not even stay near the hospital because the other party could use the hospital as a clue to find his whereabouts.

"Gugu —"

Walking on the street with his hands and right arm wrapped in gauze, Fang Ping's stomach was seriously protesting.

He found a snack bar and endured the pain in his right arm to eat. He considered looking for an informal hotel to stay.

If it was a formal hotel, he would need to register his ID. He was not sure if the organization called Hellfire could find him through the registered ID, but he did not dare to take the risk.

"Damned Hellfire!"

When he thought of the Hellfire, he felt a burst of anger in his heart. It could be said that he bore a grudge against this organization.

Of course, he did not have any thoughts of revenge now. He could not even deal with Bai Gang and He Chong, let alone an organization that seemed to be more powerful than the two.

He could only remember this for the time being. When he had the strength, he would slowly take his revenge.

Ding, ding, ding!

At this moment, the phone rang. Fang Ping took out the phone with difficulty and answered it.

"Fang Ping, I heard that He Chong and Bai Gang are asking about you. They may want to harm you. You have to be careful. Do not go to the Demon Countermeasure Department."

As soon as the phone was connected, Xu Wei's worried voice sounded.

Fang Ping looked at his hands and the gauze wrapped around his right arm. The corner of his mouth could not help but twitch slightly.

Wasn't this call a little too late?

After a moment of silence, he said helplessly.

"It's not a possibility. They have already done it. Not long ago, these two guys appeared near my house and blocked me."

"What?

They have already attacked you. Are you … okay? "

Xu Wei's voice was full of concern.

"I suffered some injuries, but I managed to escape."

"What are you going to do now?"

"Let's find a place to hide and heal our wounds first."

"Why don't you come to my house?

With me and Ah Qing here, even if He Chong and Bai Gang find our place, they will not dare to come. "

"This … okay."

After some consideration, Fang Ping agreed. Temporarily staying at Xu Wei and his sister's house was indeed a safer choice than finding an illegal hotel.

…

Xu Wei gave the address. Fang Ping took a car and arrived at Xu Wei and his sister's residence.

It was a small two-story villa with walls and a garden. The style was European.

It was somewhat unexpected. Such a small villa, even the cheapest one, would cost at least several million yuan. Even if the siblings were Awakened, it should be difficult for them to afford such a villa.

"Fang Ping, you're here. Come in!"

Xu Wei and Xu Qing appeared and warmly welcomed Fang Ping in.

After half a month, Xu Qing's injuries seemed to have almost healed. Seeing Fang Ping's curiosity, she explained.

"This was left behind by our parents."

"Left behind?"

Fang Ping keenly noticed the word "left behind".

"They were also Awakened. But five years ago, they were killed together."

Xu Wei added.

Fang Ping did not ask further. After all, they were not familiar with each other.

However, according to his judgment, their father or mother should not be weak. Otherwise, they would not be able to afford such a villa.

The three of them sat down in the living room. Fang Ping took the initiative to reveal.

"This time, the reason why He Chong and Bai Gang knew where I lived was because they bought information from an organization called Hellfire. Do you know this organization called Hellfire?"
