Chapter 378: Yet Another Relative

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Hao Ren had quickly found out that his gun wasn’t suitable for the occasion—it was not because the gun was too small but because, the firepower was too strong.

When fired, the gun could crystalise an area as large as ten-metre in radius, and strike any target within sight. As not the evacation hadn’t been completed, use of the gun might cause civilian casualty, not to mention the harm the radioactive crystalised particles could cause. He had no choice but to tuck his gun and take on the tentacles CQC- style.

Fortunately, he had Steel Membrane Shield; it wasn’t going to be a problem.

He reached his hand into his dimensional pocket and found a pointed-head alloy staff like a spear. The weapon wasn’t made in the empire but a hand-to-hand fight weapon he got it as a souvenir from the Aerymian. He wasn’t trained to use it but he could wield the two-metre long alloy spear like a kung fu panda thanks to his enhanced body.

He sensed a sudden change of wind pressure behind him. With a quick manoeuvre he dodged the tentacle coming from behind him before he wheeled and stabbed the mid section of the tentacle. The tentacle pulled back, trying to fling Hao Ren away. Hao Ren clenched his spear which was planted firmly in the tentacle and got carried into the air. Despite getting flung around, he remained focused. He turned the handle of the spear, a bright light exploded on the pointed-head of the spear and blew the tentacle in half.

“This toy is better than my professional gear.” Hao Ren landed on the ground and took a satisfied look at the spear. “I should’ve asked Hilda for more weapons of surgical destruction like this. I’m short of this category of weapon right now.”

The MDT, now working as Hao Ren’s intelligent hover interceptor brick, said casually, “It’s all about experience. Like every other inspector, from a warrior with a divine weapon you would slowly become Jack of all trades. Sooner or later you would discover that fithing the war of mortal civilisations, sometimes the smaller weapons of the mortals are far more practical than divine weapons.”

Having dodged another tentacle, Hao Ren said back, “You should’ve f**king told me earlier! I’ve only managed to get a stick from Hilda!”

The attack moves of the tentacles were very simple—sweep and thrust. They only attacked physically unlike earlier assumption that they had psyhic power and neurotoxin. Fighthing them with conventional technique would be suffice. Lily was wielding her Fire & Ice Claws like a whirlwind slicing a tentacle in half. She happily came up to Hao Ren, babbling, “Yeah, it’s pay back time! That thing had scared the hell of out me the previous night. Apparently they’re not that powerful…”

“Watch out!” A voice was heard accompanied by a loud boom in the air, Lightning Strike of the bat swarm struck and scorched a severed tentacle Lily was battling a while ago. It was Vivian who had saved the husky. “This thing is very tough. It could live for at least another ten seconds after being severed.”

A burst of hot whirlwind came up back with Becky emerging from it. Despite being an experienced mercenary, she was still the weakest among them all. Now she was already exhausted gasping for air. “Why…why they come out all of a sudden? I thought it was supposed to be two days later?”

Hao Ren looked at the tentacles which kept bursting out from the ground. His brows knit together. “I’ve no idea. Probably there has been changes. Say something, MDT.”

The MDT spoke very calmly, “It’s normal. I said the thing would be fully awake two days later but I didn’t say it wouldn’t toss and turn before it wakes up. What would you do when you first open your eyes in the morning?”

Lily replied, “I used to make a yawn!”

A loud bang was heard as another tentacle emerged from the street. The MDT said, “Right! It’s yawning now!”

Just when Hao Ren wanted to take a jab at the MDT, his suddenly frowned: he felt an unusual trembling through his feet. Unlike the earth-shattering quake when the tentacles emerged, the trembling was more subtle, and this gave a chill to his bone.

In that critical juncture, Hao Ren and Lily came to their senses. “Get out!”

A loud boom came underneath the slab pavement and the street busrt open as the two leaped away. Yet another tentacle was rising up from the ground.

But this tentacle wasn’t at all similar to the rest. It had rougher and lavender coloured skin, smaller lumps on the tip covered in mysterious pattern. Hao Ren had managed to take a glance before an overwhelming sense of dizziness struck him.

Just when everyone thought it was another tentacle rising up, this one was a mutated version!

Becky, the weakest of all, was standing closest to the tentacle. She was struck by the tentacle’s psyhic assault and tranced before walking toward the tentacle with her magical body armoured glow disappeared!

At that exact moment, a sonic boom was heard from afar. A white light pierced through the air and the psyhic-powered tentacle froze in mid air before the tentacle was engulfed in white flame with a loud boom and burned into ashes.

“Are you guys OK?” Ophra was heard coming from afar. Hao Ren turned his head around and saw the female marshal who always wore her body armour emerged from the end of the street with a team of knights. The silver sword in her hand was still emanating an afterglow. Obviously she was the one issued the attack.

Just when Hao Ren waved at Ophra, he saw the air warped around her and the next second she was already teleported next to him!

“Let’s deal with them first.” Ophra wielded her sword, her body covered in a layer of sacred white flame and charged at the tentacles and left behind a trail of ashes wherever she went. The knights were just standing by as if they were used to her spectators watching their marshal going on a killing spree.

Hao Ren and Vivian had withdrawn from the fight. They both gaped at Ophra who was engulfed in white flame, the non-standard sword she was wielding in her hand, and her spatial move. Vivian exclaimed quietly, “This is…”

White sacred flame, specially rune-carved demon-slaying sword, an almost inborn spatial movement skill… these figthing styles were almost overly familiar.

“It’s demon hunter!” Nangong Wuyue was now back, exclaiming in awe as she saw the way Ophra fought.

Becky was pulled out by Y’zaks. Feeling stupefied, she was still recovering from the psyhic influence of the tentacle as she glanced at them. “Demon hunter? Demon hunter has come from the real world?”

Hao Ren pointed to Ophra and said, “We’re talking about her!”

Ophra had finished the last few tentacles off. As half of the ‘subterrainean monster’ were already killed by Hao Ren and his company, and now Ophra had scorched the rest, the monster insticntively knew that this wasn’t the most welcoming breach to come to surface. A moment of rumbling later it had left the area. Ophra tucked away her sword and came up to Hao Ren. “Are you guys all right? Why are you guys staring at me like that?”

Hao Ren couldn’t help but said, “Your fighting skill is…”

“Ahh… I see. I know it’s unusual.” Ophra said matter-of-coursely as she dusted her windcoat. “It’s just an ancient sword fighting technique. Is that anything wrong?”

That stirred a storm in Hao Ren’s mind: the ancients of The Plane of Dreams… are demon hunters in the real world?

But they hadn’t the slightest hostility toward the otherworldlings! Ophra wasn’t hostile toward Vivian!

What happened back then on Earth?

But he hadn’t the opportunity to ask as sirens were blaring from multiple places.
