In the blink of an eye, there was a flash of light.
A fierce punch came down, and just before it hit Kratos, Victor finally grabbed his companion's clothes and pulled the big guy up from the ground. At the same time, Miriya's leg whipped down like a fierce knife.
Boom —
The whip kick landed, and a two-meter-long crack appeared on the road and the tiles in front of her. Stone chips flew everywhere. Miriya's superpower could even cut a car in half. Seeing that her companion was in trouble, she used all her strength, and the ground shook like a drum. But after this attack, she was met with a fierce and fierce attack.
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa —
In the light of the water, Miriya flew back, and the punches and kicks were like phantoms, and each hit was like a firecracker. Only then did she realize that she had made a big mistake. Every strike of the man in front of her was strange and fierce, and it seemed that he was good at speed, but it was like a thunderbolt in her hand, and she felt pain in her bones. She took two steps back and blocked eleven consecutive heavy punches, elbows, and three violent knee strikes. Only then did she realize that Victor, who was dragging Kratos back, had put some distance between them. She suddenly realized that the man in front of her had decisively given up on Kratos just now, and wanted to seize this opportunity to defeat her.
Who do you think you are …
Just when this thought came to her mind, she parried the heavy punches with both hands and blocked the hand knife that came with it. A strange wave came from her lower abdomen, and it wasn't until her clothes burst open and the man's fist left her skin that the pain came to her brain.
This is impossible …
The punch on her lower abdomen caused her back to arch involuntarily. In her line of sight, the hand knife broke through her defenses and pierced directly towards her eyes. She used all her strength to tilt her body to the side. The finger drew a semicircle of blood in the air and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
You Jiaming switched his target to her, and the two of them quickly clashed, drawing blood in the air. In less than two seconds, the blood faded, and a golden sword energy finally arrived. With a swoosh, the sword energy slashed through a nearby tree and cut it in half. Seeing that Miriya was in trouble, Victor finally let go of Kratos and rushed over.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! In the rainstorm-like fountain on the road, the trees that were slashed by the sword light shook. Victor was stuck close to Jiaming and quickly retreated, trying to create some distance between them. Milia caught up from behind. Kratos stood there, swaying slightly. He didn't have the strength to stand at all, but because Victor had just let go of him, he didn't fall down immediately. Then, with a bang, he was sent flying, his body spinning in the air.
After pushing Victor back a little, Jiaming changed his target again. Just now, his punch had missed, but it still landed on Kratos' head.
"Ahhh!"
They had never encountered such a situation before. In that instant, Miriya's eyes were bloodshot and she suddenly let out a sharp scream.
The countless drops of water around them seemed to freeze for a moment. In the next moment, the sound waves swept in all directions, and the water drops in the air cracked and exploded again in the ear-piercing sound waves. In the car, Lingjing and Shasha covered their ears. Nearby, the windows of the shops shattered. However, as they were in the middle of the battle, the sound waves only fluttered Jiaming's clothes and delayed his movements. Victor grabbed Kratos, who was still spinning in the air, and threw him back to Miriya.
Miriya hugged Kratos, and Victor stabbed his sword at Jiaming, trying to stop him for a moment. Jiaming also turned around to face Miriya in an instant. He squatted, and the sword light shot over his head.
The vibrating sound waves hadn't stopped yet, and the wildly fluttering sleeves looked like they were being blown by a typhoon. Jia Ming suddenly leaped up and rushed toward Milia and Kratos who were two to three meters away amidst the splashing water droplets. On the other side, the trees that had been cut in half began to fall, and the huge treetops floated in the air.
It was a simple punch, aimed at Miriya's forehead.
His target is me …
With Kratos in her arms, Miriya couldn't fight back at all. As this thought flashed through her mind, she tried her best to turn her head to one side as she retreated. The punch brushed past her face, and the five fingers opened with a snap, leaving a shocking bloody mark on her face. It was as if someone had slapped her with a steel whip. She saw the five fingers move from the right side of her face to the left side of her face. Then, with a flip of the palm, the five fingers stretched out, raised, and pressed down. All the wind in the air seemed to be caught in the palm.
This punch and this slap were all feints. He still had some strength left. This was his real target.
The hand pressed down on Kratos' head, and then a huge force pulled Kratos out of her hands.
Boom —
Blood splashed out. Kratos' head was pressed down by five fingers and fell to the ground like a shot put, followed by his muscular body. Miriya retreated a meter due to inertia and stopped. Victor looked at the scene on the other side.
Only then did they realize that in this short period of time, the opponent had completely focused on Kratos. No matter what, he wanted to kill him once and for all.
This was perhaps an experience that they had not experienced for many years. Their comrade was killed right in front of them, and they were completely powerless.
If you think you're powerful and sharp, then I'll kill one of you right in front of you.
Trees fell to the ground, and leaves rustled. Jiaming stood up and looked at Miriya in front of him. She pounced on him like a fierce tiger. "Kill him!"
Jiaming blocked her punch, and she grabbed Jiaming's arm with her other hand. Her body swayed, and her right leg slashed across the ground with an air blade that could tear everything apart. Porcelain shards flew in the air as she slashed at Jiaming's waist. Three meters away, Victor waved his left hand and aimed the gun at a car not far away. Then, gunshots rang out.
Bullets flew, blood splashed, and air blades swept through the air.
Miriya, who was about to entangle Jiaming, was sent flying.
The first bullet landed on Victor's gun, and the second bullet knocked the gun away in the air. Then, blood splashed out from Victor's right arm. On the other side, Jiaming still had two guns in his hands. He aimed the gun in his left hand at Victor and kept pulling the trigger. His right hand was almost wrapped in Miriya's arms. Therefore, when the bullets pierced through Miriya's back, the damage was very serious.
Although the immortal's body could heal quickly, it would still decrease its strength if it was suddenly damaged. At such a distance, Jiaming was almost shooting while throwing Miriya toward Victor.
Victor supported himself on Miriya's back, and Jiaming crossed the distance of more than three meters and slammed into Miriya's chest. Both of them were sent flying at the same time.
While they were still in the air, the sound of gunshots rang out again. Bullets kept piercing through their bodies, bringing out blood and flesh. Almost every bullet was aimed at their spines and heads. Fortunately, their amazing intuition saved them. Before they were hit, Miriya kicked Victor's body, and the two of them fell in different directions.
As soon as they landed, the two of them ran wildly in different directions, rushing toward Jiaming from different directions. As soon as the bullets ran out, the three of them rushed toward each other.
The magazine, the muzzle, the sword, and the shadows collided, and the sound of gunshots rang out again. Blood spurted out from Victor's shoulder. Generally speaking, for people at their level, the closer the distance, the harder it was for a gun to be effective. However, in front of them, Jiaming's movements seemed to be designed to subvert this understanding. His hands moved like a dance, and suddenly, blood spurted out from the two of them.
In the car not far away, Lingjing and Shasha clenched their fists as they watched the scene in the water. The three of them kept changing their positions, and the sound of gunshots rang out. Shasha murmured, "They can't beat Jiaming … It's okay … They can't beat Jiaming …"
A few seconds later, a voice suddenly rang out in the air. It was the blond man named Victor. A bullet pierced through his thigh. He suddenly shouted, "Peter … de …"
The shout seemed to have some kind of magical power. Shasha and Lingjing froze instantly. In the empty space next to the car, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the light.
As soon as the huge bat-like shadow appeared, it blocked the view of Jiaming and the lights behind them. A figure broke through the darkness and rushed toward the two people in the car.
Everything happened in a short period of time, but it was accompanied by a bone-chilling coldness. The black shadow appeared in front of them in an instant. No one could react in time. The hand just barely touched Lingjing's neck.
At that moment, it was as if time and air had frozen. The sound of gunshots and water became quiet, and everything was moving away …
*****
Of course, it was an illusion. Time did not freeze. Just as the hand was about to grab Lingjing, the figure stopped in the air for a second. Then, like a windmill, it spun away. Jiaming's back appeared in front of them.
He grabbed the man's neck from behind, then turned around and threw him out. In the darkness of the night, the black figure was like a cannonball that shot across a distance of more than 20 meters. With a loud bang, he smashed into the shutter gate of a shop. The entire shutter gate caved in, smoke and dust billowed, and the door frames on all sides were pulled apart. Broken tiles and cement rustled down.
On the other side, Jiaming threw the man out with his right hand. His left hand swung out and caught the golden rapier that was flying toward him. In the almost frozen scene, the thin and sharp rapier trembled in the air, making a vibrating sound.
"You should …"
After this one second of thrill, Jiaming's cold voice sounded. He reached into the small car and took out a machine gun from Shasha's weapon bag. Then, he fired like crazy, suppressing Victor and Miriya who were rushing toward him. Most of the bullets hit the sunken shutter gate.
"… Time is of the essence."
After he said that, a click came from the muzzle of the gun, and the bullets stopped. The single grenade under the muzzle spewed out flames, and a grenade shot into the dark shutter.
With a loud bang, flames surged out, and the airwave blew the entire shutter gate away, along with countless items. The huge fountain in front of the shop was still going, but it was swept away by the airwave and rushed to the side of the street. The water on the road was swept away by the flames and evaporated into white mist, dissipating in the air. The ashes of the flames fell from the sky, and Kratos' body was blown a few meters away.
A half-naked plastic mannequin fell on the roof of the car. Jiaming looked back and saw Lingjing and Shasha's frightened eyes.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." He smiled at the two of them and reloaded the pistol.
"You guys really make me angry …"
Under the light, he walked towards Victor and Milia, whose bodies were riddled with wounds …
