  In the next moment, the countless metal particles that had constructed the tower shield shot out like a machine gun. The dense metal torrent ruthlessly struck Jed's body. As Jed screamed miserably, he was pushed out of the alley by the torrent of water. When he landed on the ground, there was not a single piece of good meat left on his body.

  Muscles, bones, and even organs were severely damaged. Over ten thousand metal particles were being shot out at a speed of around 500 meters per second. Even an expert would not be able to withstand such an impact. Only, Zero had deliberately let go of the important spots on Jed's body, such as his heart and head. As a result, although Jed was heavily injured, he was still alive.

  The battle outside of the library had also ended. Four of the people who had attacked had died, one had been electrocuted by Berrien, and the other one had had his tendons and tendons cut off by Feng. Lying beside Jed, he didn't look any better than the leader.

  With a flick of his wrist, the Colt appeared in his hand. He walked to Jed's side and aimed his gun at Jed. Although Jed did not know how Zero produced the sniper rifle, he knew that once it was shot, it would be useless. At such close range, the impact of the bullet could shatter his entire head.

  "Alright, I'm not planning on playing any boring games with you. Let's get straight to the point. Who sent you to kill us?" Zero asked.

  Jed clenched his teeth, he hated selling out his employers the most in his line of work. Otherwise, even if they survived, no one would trust them in the future.

  Zero did not say anything. He shifted the muzzle of his gun and shot.

  Jed immediately said goodbye to his left leg, the bullet struck his knee and the huge impact separated his leg. Jed let out a blood-curdling screech, his ten fingers desperately grabbing onto the ground to prevent himself from fainting.

  "You think I don't dare to kill you? To be honest, the other party sent you guys here to die. Didn't he tell you who we are? " "We are the warriors of the Hall of Heroic Spirits. Even if you can kill me, you will be hunted down by the warriors sent by the Hall of Heroic Spirits. If you know who we are, I don't think you'd dare attack us, so your employer deceived you. "Then, will you keep secrets from such a person?"

  Jed's pupils immediately dilated.

  Hall of Heroic Spirits?

  The name pressed down on his chest like a mountain, making him almost unable to breathe. With the fall of the Southern Remot, the name of the Hall of Heroic Spirits became well-known to the humans of the continent. The news of the Remot being attacked by the living corpse had already spread across the entire coastline. Hall of Heroic Spirits also started to spread in the big cities along with the disappearance of the news. From the news, the Hall of Heroic Spirits possessed a force that was not inferior to the Dark Council's. Moreover, some old people knew that in the war that almost destroyed the entire coastline 30 years ago, as the opponent of the Dark Council, the other party was an organization that called themselves the Hall of Heroic Spirits.

  Just as Su Yun had said, if shshshead known earlier that her target was the Hall of Heroic Spirits's Warriors. No matter how much money she gave Jed, he would not accept this mission. After all, no matter how much money she had, he would still have to spend it with her life. That was why Zero was right. The employer had purposely deceived him with regards to intelligence!

  "Let me tell you, he …" Jed was about to say something, but suddenly, an arm sized needle shot out from his mouth and heart!

  Immediately, Jed couldn't say anything. At the same time, the other two who had yet to die also had their hearts and heads stabbed. They died on the spot.

  Murder to silence everyone!

  Zero immediately activated the Shadow Jump's ability and instantly appeared on the rooftop of the nearby buildings. He searched for the killer's scent, constantly scanning the area. Finally, he locked onto a figure that was on the rooftop of a tall building two streets away.

  The figure waved to him, then turned and jumped down from the other side of the building. Not long after, the engine of a motorcycle sounded, and a heavy motorcycle spewed out a grey dragon.

  Chapter 350 - Celebration (I)

  With a cold harrumph, Zero crouched and pulled the trigger, locking the machine in an instant. The muzzle shot out a beam of light, which surged forward at a speed of 2000 meters per second. As the beam drew an orange tail of light in mid-air, it formed into a spinning armor piercing bullet. The shell of the armor piercing bullet was wrapped in a layer of gray energy as it shot straight towards the enemy's heavy motorbike.

  The knight in the carriage waved his hand and a continuous wall of earth was erected behind him. With such a defence, not to mention bullets, even the missiles would be able to intercept it. Unexpectedly, the armored bullets kept coming through the walls of earth, chasing the motorcycle.

  Standing on the rooftop, Zero saw an energy flame erupt in the distance. Flames sprayed out, blowing up a ton of dust into the air and then slowly dispersing it. This blow, however, was as powerful as a small tactical missile. It was the special ability of the Shadow Wanderer, [Death's Critical Hit]. It added a layer of non-attributed energy to the bullet, causing it to instantly fuse and release an explosive power that was comparable to a missile.

  However, not only did Zero's brows not relax, they creased even more tightly. The motorcycles and riders emerged as the smog cleared the street some two thousand meters away. The rider's entire body was wrapped in an earthen yellow energy layer. That was Earth Elemental Su's defensive force field. The Knight pointed to zero, then stuck out his thumb and pressed down heavily.

  Only after making this provocative gesture did he turn the car around. However, he didn't dare drive on the straight road this time. Instead, he turned into the alleyway on the street, and in the blink of an eye, he was nowhere to be seen.

  Su Yun clapped her hands, and the Colt disappeared. He stepped back into the shadows, and in the next moment was outside the library.

  "How was it? Did you see who it was?" Feng walked over and asked.

  The others had already boarded the SUV and were ready to leave. Zero shook his head and said, "The other party is wearing a helmet, so it's impossible to see his appearance. His body is more neutral, so it's impossible to tell him apart. The only thing he could be sure of was that his opponent was someone who possessed the ability of Earth Elemental Su, and his rank was not low either. Just by constructing the Earth Elemental Su's defensive force field, he was able to block bombs that were equivalent to small missiles. Also, he was at least 900 meters away from us when he killed those trash just now. If we do not have the special medium to activate his ability, that would mean that his ability's coverage would reach almost a kilometer. This is an incredible distance to cover. "

  "So you're saying that we don't have any idea at all. We can only go back and ask Chief Instructor, and see who it is that doesn't welcome us." Feng laughed coldly.

  Zero jumped into the car and said, "Let's go. If they were hostile to us, there would be more attacks like today. At the level we are at today, we're just testing our strength. "

  Feng nodded his head, agreeing completely with what Su Yun said. He found the door, sat in the driver's seat, and started the engine. The exhaust pipe of the off-road jeep exhaled a cloud of gray smoke, the jeep made a turn at its starting point, and took the lead to drive in the direction of the Asgard.

  Outside the ruins of this city, there was a heavy motorcycle speeding across the endless wilderness. The Knight lowered his body to almost the same height as the car as the motorcycle accelerated. In a blink of an eye, the speed had increased to 400 kilometers per hour!

  The knight was wearing a dark yellow camouflage uniform, which almost made him one with the wilderness. If it wasn't for the high-speed movement of the motorcycle, it would be hard to distinguish him from a distance. As he was driving, the motorcycle suddenly started to shake irregularly. The rider kept slowing down, but eventually the whole bike was lifted off the ground, skid
ded twice on the ground, and stopped in front of a sandbag.

  The rider in the carriage fell to the ground and rolled a few times before stopping. He was lying on the scorching ground. A moment later, the knight sat up and took off his helmet. Beneath the helmet was a young face with a faint smile on its deep outline. He looked at his left hand, where blood was seeping out. The knight had to tear off a sleeve, break it down into a strip of cloth, and finally tie it around his arm to stop the bleeding.

  He patted off the sand on his body and stood up, saying, "Damn it, shooting from 2130 meters away and continuously shooting through five walls of earth can still hit me. This isn't something that can be done by just relying on your sniping skills. The destructive energy layer added on the bullet should be the Shadow Wanderer right? How abnormal, before we went to battle, I seemed to have been in the wind shooter, and in just one battle, I advanced? "

  As he spoke, he walked over to the motorcycle and pulled the big guy up. After checking, the knight heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily the motorcycle was not broken, otherwise he would have to walk back.

  In the evening, the heavy motorcycle drove into a deserted town. The size of the town was similar to the Angry Reef City, but much more dilapidated. The townspeople lived on scavenging, and there was an old military warehouse nearby with nuclear material such as uranium. However, the catastrophe caused the warehouse to be buried one hundred meters underground, which had already become the lair of the berserk giant rat.

  The townspeople had to enter the warehouse at the risk of their lives and sell the uranium to other cities for money. However, this job was extremely dangerous. Apart from the threat of the berserk giant rat, there were no protective measures against the highly radioactive substance, so the residents of the town usually wouldn't live past the age of 30. Even so, it did not prevent people from entering the underground warehouse.

  Since there was no income, there was no food. Without food, there was no difference between that and death. And even though entering and exiting the uranium deposit area would shorten their lifespan, they would at least be able to live for a while, which would be better than starving to death.

  Under the control of their survival instinct, no one was willing to starve to death. When the knights arrived at the town, they saw a few refugees dragging their tired bodies towards them. They were covered with blood, both theirs and others'. When they left the town in the morning, the team had a total of fifteen people, but now there were only three people left.

  At the entrance of the small town, there were already women and children looking in. When they saw that there was no husband among the returning group, they held the child and cried bitterly. However, after crying bitterly, he could only gather his emotions and walk home with the child in his arms.

  A dead husband's woman and child would be compensated with two loaves of bread and a bottle of clean water, and a woman would need to work or remarry in order to live.

  The Knight was very clear about this kind of lifestyle. After all, he was from this small town.

  If he had not run into that man, the Knight thought, he would have become one of the uranium pickers. They could either die from the contamination in their prime, or be torn into pieces by wild hamster s in the underground warehouse. These were the two ultimate destinies of the man in the town.

  The motorcycle was parked outside the town's only gas station. At dusk, the gas station's convenience store was dark. There was very little gasoline left in the tank. Old Peter, who was guarding the gas station, was napping on his old leather chair that he had picked up from god knows where. His snores could be heard outside the town.

  The knight put his helmet on the locomotive, smiled, and went over and put a hand on old Pete's nose.

  The old man who woke up from his shortness of breath roared, "Who the hell doesn't want to live anymore? Be careful of my breaking your dog legs …"

  After a short period of adaptation, his eyes gradually focused and he saw the Knight. The old man's shout turned into a grumble, "So it's you, Xiao Jin. Get your stinking hands away! "

  Laughing, he let go, and the knight suddenly gave Pitt a hug. "Long time no see, Uncle Pitt."

  "Yeah, I thought you were dead. How long has it been? Two years. " Pitt muttered.

  The knight named Jin patted Peter on the back and said, "Yes, it has been two years. This place is still the same as always. "

  Chapter 351 - Celebration (II)

  It was night, and the town was deserted. The night in the wilderness was cold. Even if the heat of the day could burn off a layer of your skin, at night, the cold would make your soul tremble. Extreme cold and extreme heat tested all the living beings on this planet. Humans, on the other hand, were clearly no better at adaptability than other living beings.

  Especially in such a desolate town, let alone a magnetic energy shield like the Yongye City's, they didn't even have a radiation purification system like the one he had. In this cruel era, poverty meant that one could only struggle on the brink of death.

  However, the gas station's convenience store was brightly lit. The shelves that didn't have much goods on them were moved to the two sides, leaving a rickety table in the open space. There was a simple electric stove on the table with steaming broth on it. There weren't many homes in town that could afford electricity, and the only old generator in town was already facing the dilemma of not having gas to power it.

  Therefore, the townspeople were very cautious about electricity. Old Peter had a private generator, which was why he was able to fill all the lamps and use the electric stove in such a luxurious place.

  The broth on the stove was already cooked, and old Pete brought out two bowls that were not too clean. He then served each of them a bowl of broth.

  Jin drank the broth. In reality, this kind of thing wasn't delicious. Meat was taken from the body of the mutated lizard, and it could only be taken from the muscles of its hind legs. The meat of the lizard was somewhat bitter, and because it contained a trace of Su poison, when one drank the meat soup, their tongue would become numb.

  However, Jin still drank all the broth in one bowl, for no other reason than that this broth was a rare delicacy in his childhood.

  "I heard that you have already become a capable person? "It's really amazing, Xiao Jin. You used to be such a crying slug." Old Pete took a sip of the broth and gestured with his hand.

  Jin wiped his nose with his finger and said, "It's not as simple as being an esper. Right now, I'm an Earth Conqueror."

  "Conquer what? "Earth?" The Old Pete gave a drop of goosebumps to Jin One, saying: "What are you blabbering about, you still want to conquer the earth, you little rascal who hasn't grown all your hair yet."

  Jin smiled bitterly at the old man and didn't bother to explain to him that the Terra Conqueror was a high level profession proficient in the Earth Element in the Meta-Su Region. As long as he was willing to, as long as he controlled the power of earth, a "sandstorm" or "earthquake of the earth's crust" would make this small town history.

  He was no longer the same Gold as two years ago. However, this town was still a small one, and Old Pete was still a Old Pete. Thus, Jin chuckled foolishly and went back to being that silly kid from two years ago who didn't know anything.

  "By the way, Pete, what happened to my mother?" King asked suddenly.

  Old Pete rolled up the last drop of meat juice in his bowl with his tongue into his mouth before saying, "Your mother, Freya, has already left with someone. Not long after you left, you left with a adventurer who passed by the town. "

  "She'll make a good living." King lowered his head.

  Old Pete shrugged his shoulders and said, "Who knows? I heard that there are quite a few women in the adventurer. I don't know about his life, but your mother probably won't die of hunger if she follows him. "

  "Is that so? That's good." Jin lowered his head, not wanting to let Old Pete see the liquid rolling in his eyes.

  When it was about nine o'cloc
k, Old Pete tidied up his things and asked Jin, "Are you planning to stay?"

  "No, just for a day or two."

  The Old Pete nodded and said, "That's right. This kind of small town can't keep an important figure like you anymore. It's getting late, go to sleep. The storage room is still empty. I'll send you a blanket later. "

  Actually, with his power, he would be fine even if he laid on the ground naked, but he was still grateful to the Old Pete for his concern.

  The warehouse was at the back of the convenience store. It was a small room about ten square meters. Jean remembered that it used to be filled with old food and water, but now it was much emptier, and he didn't know if they were sold or unedible and thrown away. But here, King had a special feeling. Every time he was beaten up by his mother, he would run over to Old Pete's warehouse.

  This was his little refuge.

  King found a clean corner and lay down on the ground. Not long after, the Old Pete came over. He threw a patched blanket and a pillow to Jin. King knew it was the Old Man's only pillow, so he pushed it away, but the old man shoved it into his arms with a stinking face.

  When the old man left, King felt warm inside.

  At this time, Jin took out a pocket-sized intelligence brain from the pocket of his camouflage chest. It looks like an old smartphone, but it works a lot better than a mobile phone. At this time, the screen of the intelligence brain flashed with the requested communication icon, Gold opened it, and then placed the intelligence brain on the ground.

  The intelligence brain's screen shot out a beam of light, and images gradually formed inside the light. It was a man, but the image had only reached the man's waist. His upper body was one with the darkness of the warehouse, giving off a mysterious aura.

  A clearly handled voice said, "How's it going, Kim?"

  Jin half knelt on the ground and replied respectfully, "Just as you expected, anyone below the sixth step is no longer a match for them. Compared to before he went to war, Su Yun and the rest have made significant progress, especially Su Yun, who I think has been promoted to Shadow Wanderer. "
