Chapter 62 Penetration
Chapter 62 Penetration
The signal was transmitted back to the command room via surveillance. Schneider, Guderian, and Manstein held their breath, watching Su An's reaction with bated breath.
They were all experienced veterans; even if they hadn't eaten pork, they had seen pigs run. Jiu De Mai's slash was majestic and domineering; even a high-ranking Death Servant would likely perish. Could Su An stop it?
Their hearts raced involuntarily as they stared intently at the battle unfolding on the monitor screen.
Immediately, their eyes widened in surprise!
Su An stretched out a finger and raised it towards the sky, the tip of which touched the tip of Jiu Dema's knife, and surprisingly, it held.
This scene is so absurd: the weakest little finger blocked the most powerful frontal slash!
Mai Shude's eyes also went blank for a moment; she couldn't believe that the knife the boss had left her wouldn't work either.
In that instant, Caesar made his move!
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Caesar raised his Desert Eagle, aimed it at Mai Shude, and pulled the trigger.
Bang bang bang!
Four large-caliber bullets from the Desert Eagle were fired in quick succession. The first bullet deflected the knife that Jiu De Mai was slashing at Su An. The second bullet struck Jiu De Mai hard in the chest. The third bullet hit her waist. The fourth bullet hit her thigh.
"Perfect teamwork!" Su An praised, raising his hand.
The instant that Mai Shude was caught by the bullet, Su An conjured a tiny blue light at his fingertips and shot it towards Mai Shude's neck without hesitation.
The blue light shot out like a snake, and the dangerous aura made the temperature in Odin Hall much colder.
With wide eyes, at the critical moment of life and death, Jiu De Mai suddenly mustered her strength and roared.
Her golden eyes shone brighter, and her body became full of power. With the help of this immense power, she quickly dodged Su An's blue light, but she didn't completely avoid it. She stared blankly at her left arm, which was empty.
The blue light swallowed half of her arm, leaving not a trace.
Mai Shude quickly regained her senses. She spat out a mouthful of blood, threw out her already damaged bulletproof vest to block Su An's view, and hid herself in the darkness.
The footsteps were light and intermittent, as if she was constantly changing her location and accelerating.
The woman whose arm Su An had taken from her was enraged. If she had only been stalling for time before, she was now truly furious and ready to retaliate!
Mai Shude, gathering murderous intent in the darkness, nimbly circled behind Su An like a black cat, then gripped the hilt of her sword.
The blade is aimed at the opening, at the heart!
It's now!
Half a blade flashed in the shadows, accelerating rapidly behind Su An, getting closer and closer to him!
This was in a blind spot, directly in line with Caesar Gattuso's gun, a spot Su An couldn't react to, and it slashed down hard from behind! Your incantation couldn't possibly work from behind, could it?
As Jiu De Mai swung her sword down, she froze.
Su An chuckled lightly. "Sorry, beautiful lady, there's also defense behind you."
There seemed to be some invisible barrier around him, and no matter how hard Mai Shude swung her knife, she couldn't bring it down.
Mai Shude gritted her teeth, drew her sword, gathered her strength, and slashed again!
The blade flashed, aiming for his waist! Stop!
The blade flashed, aiming for the thigh! Stop!
The blade flashed, aimed at the neck! But it stopped!
The flash of the blade stopped eerily once again, halting in front of the back of the black-haired, blue-eyed man's head.
Despite her continued exertion of power, Mai Shude could not advance even slightly.
After a long while, she gritted her teeth and cursed in resentment.
"Tsk, how are we supposed to fight this?! It's like a turtle shell, are you cheating?!"
She finally gave up, decisively withdrew her blade, did a backflip to create distance, and shouted at her teammates behind her!
"Those who haven't run yet, run now!"
No one responded.
She glanced behind her out of the corner of her eye; those bastards had long since run away. They had all seen Su An's picture and knew very well that he was a monster; their first reaction upon encountering a monster was, of course, to run. Taking advantage of the time that Jiu De Mai was holding off Su An, they quickly made their escape.
"Tsk, time to get out of here."
Mai Shude clicked her tongue and activated the Word Spirit Illumination.
Thin, dense black light flowed from her body, distorting the light around her. In the next instant, Mai Shude disappeared from sight.
There were only faint footsteps and panting sounds on the ground, but these sounds were difficult to discern as they echoed within Odin's Hall.
Mai Shude almost blended into the darkness, and her voice came from all directions.
"The handsome man is highly skilled in martial arts; this humble woman is completely outmatched."
"The revenge for my severed arm will be taken another day..."
In the monitoring room, Schneider, Guderian, and Manstein were pacing anxiously.
"Are we just going to watch this woman leave like this? Is there nothing we can do?!" Guderian, despite his disheveled appearance in his pajamas, looked extremely anxious at this moment.
"What kind of incantation is that? Is there a way to counter it?" Manstein was also extremely anxious.
Schneider sighed and shook his head.
"That should be the Word Spirit Illumination, Word Spirit Serial Number 69. It allows the user and a small area around their body to blend in with the surrounding environment, making only a faint black mist visible. It is suitable for disguise. In such a dark environment, it is almost equivalent to invisibility."
Su An may have no choice but to let his opponent escape.
Schneider paused suddenly as he was speaking.
"What's wrong?" Guderian asked, puzzled.
Professor Schneider smiled. "Judging from the look in our S-class's eyes, he seems confident in identifying the enemy. Let's wait and see."
Kassel College, Odin Hall.
The voice of Mai Shude grew more distant and ethereal, soon to leave the Odin Hall and disappear into the distance.
"You can't leave!"
Su An suddenly started moving, dashing out in one stride and sprinting quickly in a direction in the darkness.
He raised his arm and grabbed fiercely into the darkness, tearing out a phantom image from the darkness with the ferocity of an eagle's claw.
"Aaaaaah! How did you find out?!"
Painful howls echoed from the phantom, gradually solidifying into a human body.
Su An pulled Jiu De Mai out, her wrists tightly gripped, preventing her from moving.
With a snap, she made a tough decision to dislocate her wrist, enduring the excruciating pain as she used the space created by the dislocated joint to pull her wrist out.
She turned to disappear into the darkness, but with a "bang," Su An kicked her up with his knee.
The sturdy knee struck Mai Shude's liver area squarely, sending a wave of intense, terrifying pain through her brain, almost causing her to lose consciousness.
Mai Shude was tumbled and lifted into the air. She had no room to maneuver and was finally completely exposed to Su An. Her location was now known, and even if she activated her Netherworld Illumination, it would be too late!
"Now!"
Su An flashed forward like a tiger, raising his hand from bottom to top, a blue light ball appearing in his palm.
With a soft "pfft".
The blue orb pierced Mai Shude's body without hesitation, the scarlet hole penetrating from front to back.
