  After another miss, one of the guards cursed, "Fuck, is that even a person?"

  "To be honest, I don't know how to answer that question."

  Suddenly, a voice came from behind him. The guard was shocked. He was a hidden sentry, located in a small room on the fifth floor of Duke Mansion. The guard quickly turned around and used his rifle like an iron rod. He could be considered to have trained with Su.

  However, there was an empty feeling coming from the top of the spear, and the spear swept through the air. A shadow flashed in the darkness, and a cold sensation appeared between his eyebrows. The guard suddenly realized that his opponent's gun had already reached his vitals.

  "Ability users …"

  After saying his last words, under the silent barrage, the guard's entire body was lightly bounced up by the impact of the bullet and then gently fell down. He had turned into a corpse, lying on the windowsill with his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe that he had just died.

  The scattered gunshots sounded in other parts of Duke Mansion, but very quickly, the gunshots disappeared. Every sentry was at least a hundred metres apart, but zero was not restricted by space. When night fell, the Shadow Jump could be used to its fullest. Zero was like a death god in the dark, easily taking the lives of all the remaining guards.

  When the last guard fell at his feet, Zero said lightly, "Two more."

  One was the leader of the guards, Cordol, and the other was naturally the main target of zero, Mayor Mensa!

  He suddenly shivered. Even though the giant Cordol was standing beside him, he didn't feel the slightest sense of security.

  The mayor trembled as he took out a revolver, which was filled with six bullets. This weapon, which Mensa used to play with when he had nothing to do, had to be used one day. But with the gun in her hand, Mensa was more at ease. He suppressed the fear in his heart and asked Cordol: "How is it?"

  After the old butler was killed, Mensa called Cordol over. Cordol was a typical muscular man, every muscle line extremely clear. His face was filled with seriousness. After hearing the mayor's words, Cordol shook his head and said: "It's not good, it seems that all the guards have died. Mayor, why don't I escort you away? "

  "Leave?" Mensa first smiled bitterly, then roared, "Where can I go? Leave the Pavaric? I can't do it, this must be an assassin hired by Charon that pig. He wants to take over my share, don't even think about it! "

  Cordol shook his head: "Master, our lives are more important than our wealth."

  After a few intense breaths, his rationality gradually gained the upper hand: "Cordol, answer me honestly. How much chance do you have of killing that assassin? "

  Cordol pondered deeply before replying, "If I were to increase the distance between us, I would not have the slightest confidence. If it is a close combat, then at least, there is a thirty percent chance of winning. "

  Before Mensa could reply, a man's voice rang out softly. "Thirty percent? You overestimate yourself. "

  Cordol suddenly turned around, and saw a man dressed in black clothes and black pants standing at the door. However, the door of the study room was last moved, Cordol's pupils contracted, he could not figure out how this assassin came in.

  Of course, he did not notice that Zero was standing in the shadows. Moving between the shadows, teleporting from the outside to the inside of the door was an easy task. Now all that was left on the list were the big man in front of him and Mensa, who was huddled behind his desk. However, Zero didn't look at Mensa. An ordinary person, even if he was the leader of a town, was just a corpse in front of him.

  This was just a matter of time.

  So when Zero looked at Cordol, he was the last obstacle.

  In theory, Cordol, who was at the fifth stage of strength, was not a match for a zero. However, Zero never looked down on anyone because those opponents that looked down on him all died under his spear. Zero did not want to make the same mistake. Thus, even if he had to face the normal guards outside of Duke Mansion, he would fight with everything he had.

  Cordol instantly understood Zero's intentions. This man was so cold that he did not seem to possess any emotion. This meant that the killer in front of him was not impulsive, and there was nothing more scary than a calm killer. Cordol took a deep breath, and with another loud roar, he exploded with power at the fifth step, causing the muscles in his entire body to swell even more. In the next moment, the big man already charged towards zero like a tank.

  As he closed the distance, Cordol punched towards Su Yun's handsome face. That fist had a force of almost a ton. Let alone one person, even a piece of steel plate would be deformed by Cordol's punch. Of course, Ming Dong was not interested in extending her face out for others to carry, so he stepped forward lightly, and with the fist in front of him moving to the right side, Cordol's fist swept past him, and the fighter only blew up the hair on his head.

  Cordol groaned, he instantly used his right fist and chased after Su Yun. With a light chuckle, he quickly stepped on the ground. He had already changed the trajectory, causing Cordol to miss twice.

  The big man's eyes were already bloodshot from killing. He twisted his body like a bear as he spun on the spot and swept out his right fist in a berserk manner. The power of this punch increased again, reaching a few tons, and the fist that broke through the air brought along a strong gust of wind. Mensa had already stood far enough away, but he was still suffocated by Cordol's punch.

  But, Cordol still missed. With a sudden squatting motion, the big man's fist only hit his afterimage. As soon as he squatted down, Zero used his full strength to lift himself up into the air, bringing up a series of afterimages with him. Pointing the pistol down, Zero gently pressed the trigger.

  The muzzle flashed.

  Cordol opened his eyes wide, his motion vision activated to its limit, and he saw a bullet coming out from the muzzle of his gun. The bullet continued to spin with a speed that was fast but still within the range that Cordol could accept.

  Zero held an ordinary looking automatic pistol in his hand. The power of this kind of gun was limited, it was only faster than the left wheel in the Mayor's hands. Maybe with this spear, he could easily take back the lives of ordinary soldiers, but Cordol would not be defeated by a weapon of this level. He grinned and punched the bullet.

  A punch with the power of the fifth step was enough to turn a bullet into a coin.

  However, when the fist and the bullet clashed against each other, Cordol could clearly feel that within this unremarkable warhead, there were actually a few storm-like masses of energy hidden!

  Before he could understand what kind of technique was this, a dazzling light bloomed in front of Cordol's eyes. In the next moment, his figure had already been submerged within the current of energy.

  The Town Mayor Duke Mansion continued to shake from the sound of the explosion as a large ball of flame passed through the building on the west side of the Duke Mansion. The flame continued to spew out for nearly five seconds before it slowly returned to normal. Thick smoke billowed towards the sky. Amidst the smoke, the remnants of buildings were constantly falling down. A burnt smell immediately wafted through the air.

  Mensa sat in the corner with his arms around his head, watching in horror as nearly half the space in the study turned to ash. As if it was attacked by a missile, a huge crack that was dozens of meters wide appeared where Cordol was standing just now. From Mensa's position, he could also see the room below the study. What Mensa did not know was that this strike of zero had not only penetrated the floor of the study, but had also directly carved a path downwards from the building!

  With the gun in his hand, Zero slowly walked towards the dispirited mayor.

  Even Bodon, who possessed the avatar of Darkness Tyrant, did not dare to take the killing blow head on, not to mention Cordol, a Fifth Stage Adept. The reason why Cordol arrogantly smashed his fist at the bullet that hit zero was because his rank was too low and his sensitivity towards energy was not high. As a
result, he did not sense what kind of terrifying power was hidden within that unremarkable bullet.

  Walking up to Mensa, Zero raised the gun. The ordinary pistol made from energy held it against Mensa's forehead. Mensa looked at Zero, and asked in a deep voice, "Did Charon allow you to kill me?"

  "Charon? Do you think he can order me around? " Zero asked.

  With the strength of Zero, being able to easily kill Cordol, it was indeed not something that Charon could afford.

  "Then why is all this happening?"

  Zero said lightly, "It's nothing. You're just blocking my path."

  "Is that all?" After a moment of silence, Mensa roared, "You demon! Kill me if you want, but I will curse you in hell!"

  "Then, goodbye."

  Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger. There was no earth-shattering explosion this time, only a bloody hole in Mensa's forehead. Seeing Mensa's body fall, Zero knew his job was done.

  "Demon? "Maybe." With a faint sigh, Zero's figure disappeared from Mensa's study.

  Theon had once said that under the soil of the ideal nation, the bones of those who died would definitely be buried. As for Mensa, he was just the first victim.

  War never asks why, but whether it is profitable. It had always been this way.

  At the same moment that Zero pulled the trigger on Mensa, far away in one of the rooms of a hotel in the town, Jean ground his teeth against the windowsill.

  Zero, you really are a demon. You used this method to kill everyone in Beaumont, right? Bastard, I'll kill you! Kill you!

  "Calm down."

  On the bed in the room, Alice stretched out her long jade legs. The red wine in her hand was as red as human blood.

  "Why don't you let me get rid of that guy?"

  "Did you forget what the adults said? We have to do it well." If you go over like this, you have the confidence to kill him? Don't forget that there are a few of his friends in town, one of whom is the Destroyer. That woman is not simple at all. " Alice slowly drank the red wine and said indifferently: "A little kid is still a little kid."

  She looked out of the window and saw that the clouds were red, as if they were the color of tonight's blood.

  Chapter 391 - Well of the Abyss (I)

  Jean gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He turned from the window and sat down on the floor. In the evening, he and Alice had rushed over to Pavaric. The two of them still had time to go into the Frost Forest and beat up a Violent Claw Ape, then disguise as hunters and sneak into the city. The Violent Claw Ape's claws and fur were all of the highest quality. After casually selling this prey to a merchant, the two of them took the money to find a hotel called "Time to Meet".

  The original intention was to immediately fight to the death with Zero. He had never lacked courage, not to mention that Zero was of a similar rank to him. Jin did not fear zero at all. However, Alice stopped him, the reason being that, besides Zero, there were a few other capable people in the town. Among them, Team Zero had a Destroyer. This was a force that couldn't be underestimated.

  "That's why we have to be patient, find a chance to kill him once and for all." On the bed, Alice said lazily. She stretched her seductive body. Perhaps because of the alcohol, her body felt slightly hot, and her eyes were hazy as she said to Jin, "Since there's nothing else to do, why don't you go to bed and sleep with your sister. Just like that … I'll make it up to you. "

  Unfortunately, Jin didn't know that the one who destroyed the Beaumont that day wasn't zero, but the enchanting beauty on the bed. "I'm not in the mood for that!"

  Then he jumped up from the floor and stormed out of the room, furious.

  The door slowly closed, and at the moment of closing, Alice's voice came out from the room.

  The bleeding had finally passed.

  Tonight, Charon did not sleep at all. His villa was a distance away from the Duke Mansion, but when the distant gunshots reached his ears, it was as if they were still nearby. The sounds of the gunshots caused the fat on Charon's body to tremble uncontrollably. Even if the gunfire died down a moment later, the silence became even harder. only slept for a while when the sky started to brighten. But half an hour later, old Rob woke him up and said it was the honorable guests.

  Therefore, Charon carried the head that was swollen from the pain from dying through the night, and walked to the great hall with bloodshot eyes. In the hall, Charon found that the young man who went to deal with Mensa on his own had returned. When Charon arrived at the great hall, he was sitting alone by the window. A ray of sunlight gently shone on him from outside the window, making him look a bit divine in the sunlight. He was completely unable to connect it with the person who had massacred the entire Mayor's Mansion last night.

  As for the other guests, they had all left at an unknown time.

  Hearing the footsteps, Zero turned his head and knew that Charon had come. Footsteps were like fingerprints. Everyone's footsteps were different, and when their emotions fluctuated, their voices would slightly differ. Only Sniper Specialist who were extremely sensitive to the change in environment, such as Zero, would notice the difference. Of course, Yoru also had this ability. They were all dancers dancing in the dark, but it was the dance of death that brought terror to others. Although he yearned for the sunshine, as long as this era was not over, he would still have to jump.

  "Mr. Charon, please make some preparations before following me out of the city to welcome some important guests. "Before that, I hope the whole town will be under your absolute control." Zero said.

  Charon used a hand to wipe his face, and said with a smile: "Of course, from last night onwards I have already prepared as necessary. By now, the City Guard and the guard station should have already replaced my men. As for the commoners in the town, I believe they wouldn't dare to cause any trouble. "

  "That's for the best." Zero jumped down from the window and said lightly: "Let's go, don't make the guests wait too long."

  Charon called for the driver in a hurry as he accompanied Su Bai to the city gate. In the carriage, Charon sat far away from Su Yun, afraid that he would be killed if he got too close. With one hand on his chin, he observed the scenery outside the car. As he passed by a hotel called "Time to Meet," he couldn't help but feel some indescribable emotions. This feeling came too quickly and was not obvious. As a result, he quickly sank into the lake of his heart.

  What he did not know was that on the windowsill of a certain room in the inn, Alice was standing naked by the window, allowing the gradually brightening sunlight to shine onto her long neck. Following which, she slipped past the jutting mountains, then to her flat stomach, and finally entered the mysterious black forest. Alice seemed to not have noticed the cold morning air as he watched Charon's seat get further away from his line of sight.

  At this moment, the door opened and Jean walked in. Seeing that Alice's body was unexpectedly naked, Jin's face immediately flushed red. "Exposed Madman, why aren't you putting on your clothes at this time?"

  "I'm not wearing any clothes because someone important just passed under the hotel, so I don't have time to wear them." Alice slowly walked back to the bedside and calmly put on the tight leather clothes in front of Jin, blocking the attractive view.

  Jin's attention had already been shifted from her body to another target by Alice's words. His entire body released a dangerous aura and when he felt her cold expression, he actually hit Alice on the face with a small piece of ice prism.

  Alice changed into black leather pants and said. "Stop your dangerous thoughts and don't plan on doing anything to Zero for now. Instead, we need to hurry up and pack up and leave the city."

  "Why?" Jin asked as he felt the ice shards that had already turned into water.

  "Because the big shots are coming. At that time, this small town will appear to be a bit narrower. If the situation is bad, then our identities will be leaked out. "Therefore, since they haven't come yet, it's best for us to leave quickly." Alice put on her own leather shoes and f
inished dressing herself. Ignoring Jin, she left the room with a gust of fragrant wind.

  "Are you coming with me or do you plan to bet your life on this?" However, even if you are willing to bet, you won't be able to hurt even a single hair on your head. "

  Alice's voice came out, causing Jin to clench his fists. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "He will always pay the price for what he has done!"

  With that, Jin angrily followed Alice. Alice looked at Jin Yu, who seemed like a cat with its hair standing on end, and remained silent.

  When the time reached eight o'clock, the ground shook slightly. Zero and Charon appeared outside the city gate of Pavaric. Su, Berrien and the others had already arrived. Zero sat on the hood of Charon's car. He crossed his hands under his chin and looked ahead calmly. Charon stood beside him, feeling helpless.

  The radiation from the ground became stronger and stronger, as though something huge was passing through silverfrost dense forest. Moments later, a silver-gray command chariot appeared at the edge of the forest. The command chariot with the snow remover installed drove through the snow without any obstruction. The snow was forcefully pulled off the ground by the powerful extraction system, then ground into powder by the high-speed mixer. Finally, the exhaust system sprayed out two high lines of snow on both sides of the chariot.

  Charon looked at the chariot in fear. Whether it was the large-caliber machine guns or the anti-tank missiles, they all represented a terrifying military power that could raze the Pavaric to the ground. Following behind the chariot, soldiers were being transported out of the forest one after another, and into Charon's line of sight. Charon's fat body started to vibrate non-stop again. When an entire fifty or so transport cars drove out, another dozen off-road vehicles equipped with rapid fire heavy gun s and two command chariots drove out. Charon couldn't help but sit on the snow ground with his butt facing the sky.

  Usually, he would have already jumped three meters high, but now he felt as if his body weighed a thousand kilograms, and was unable to get up no matter what. Charon turned his neck with great difficulty and looked at Zero with a bitter and pained expression. Now he suddenly felt that Zero was too kind. He clearly had the power to erase the Pavaric from his map, but he had used the gentlest method possible. In other words, he was considered lucky.
