Chapter 68 - 68 68 Priority Kill

68: Chapter 68 Priority Kill 68: Chapter 68 Priority Kill Half an hour later, several off-road vehicles drove into the construction site. As the doors opened, Zhou Xiao, with his hands tied, was kicked out first, followed by three men who shoved him in front of a building, shouting inside from a distance of over ten meters. The construction site was illuminated by tower lights, and the open space outside was reasonably well-lit. However, inside the building, visibility was poor. Soon, a shadowy figure emerged from within. Zhou Xiao immediately recognized Zhou Ning and yelled, “Sis!” Zhou Ning walked out, glaring hatefully at the people across from her, “Release him!” “Where’s Zhao Sheng?” The well-dressed young man with reflective dress shoes got out of the car and sized up Zhou Ning. “You’re not bad-looking. How about you come with me, and I’ll let your brother go?” Hiding behind a pillar, Hu Wenhao emerged, carrying the unconscious Zhao Sheng. His nails dug into Zhao Sheng’s neck. “Cut the crap, release Zhou Xiao!” The young man looked at them in surprise. “Do you really think I care about the life of a thug? I’m giving you a chance to obey and live through today.” “Stop wasting words with him!” Hu Wenhao threw Zhao Sheng aside and abruptly lunged at the young man, but just then, all the lights on the tower went out, plunging the surroundings into darkness! “It’s an ambush!” Zhou Ning shouted, “Retreat into the building first!” “Think you can run?” Guided by the last image before the lights went out, the young man accurately lunged towards where Zhou Ning had been. However, as soon as he pounced, he was ensnared by resilient and itchy threads, as if diving into water. These threads not only tangled around his arms and legs but also relentlessly burrowed into his mouth and nose, dragging him into the building. Meanwhile, Hu Wenhao and Tian Yun coordinated, one creating a diversion and the other using his speed to snatch Zhou Xiao away. Once they had rescued the person, they didn’t linger to fight but also retreated into the building. “There are now three players directly in front, with a woman in a dress on the tower and two other players who have entered the second floor from the construction site’s main entrance.” In the darkness, Liu Jia reported everything she saw through her binoculars using the earpiece. “I’ve only got one here, but he’s holding something very strange, shaped like a dragon, probably a prop.” Yu Xiaoyu reported from another angle, spotting Ma Yu with long hair, also on the second floor. “Click!” Girl in the painting, responsible for monitoring the rear of the building, made a sound in her earpiece. “At least nine players have arrived so far; one on the tower, three on the second floor, five on the first floor. We focus on delaying the players on the first floor as long as possible and kill those on the second floor,” Xu Huo said sternly. “No problem…” Zhou Ning said, “What about this one I dragged in? He’s not dead yet. Should we keep him to force out information about the Holy Sword Society?” “No need, prioritize killing over delaying when it comes to players who come inside,” Xu Huo replied. Just as his voice fell, a whizzing sound targeted his face. He raised his hand to catch it, and “Omnipresent Strings” pulled him backward, avoiding the attack. By this point, his eyes had adapted to the dark, and he could vaguely see a figure standing in front of him. He leaped up, kicking the figure in the temples! “Bang!” The figure slammed into the wall with a heavy thud, the noise attracting the two other players on the second floor. Hearing footsteps approaching, Xu Huo, in a decisive move, used the strings to suspend the player, grabbed his legs and twisted. A snapping sound instantly silenced the struggling figure. After setting the body down, he added another stab in the heart before getting up and crouching in the corner on his strings. The thick scent of blood soon lured over the next player, who stepped over a stone edge. The next second, he raised his head, pointing the object in his hands toward Xu Huo’s hiding spot, shooting a jet of flame! Xu Huo rolled over and landed, his lighter clinking as he ignited it, “Burn, burn, burn!” Three clusters of flames lit up on the man’s body, but they didn’t catch fire. The man laughed, “I use fire myself, so why wouldn’t my clothes be fireproof?” Xu Huo narrowed his eyes. When the flames had flared up, he had barely made out the man’s face—it was the long-haired man Yu Xiaoyu had mentioned. He was holding a dragon-shaped toy gun, but the flames it shot were definitely real. “Seeing as you also play with fire, how about joining the Holy Sword Society?” Ma Yu patted the toy gun, “There are plenty of good things there, and this little toy was given to me by the Holy Sword Society.” Xu Huo smirked slightly, “A team pulled together by a lowly cannibal player, what future does it have? In no more than three days, the Holy Sword Society will completely disappear from Ting City.” Ma Yu burst into laughter, “I know you ordinary players think you’re something special with your traits, looking down on cannibal players. But even traits need time to develop. It’s your bad luck running into me.” “Is that so?” Xu Huo lifted two fingers, and suddenly the Omnipresent Strings swimming near Ma Yu jerked his neck up, forcibly yanking him into the air! Ma Yu was shocked beyond belief. Seeing the person opposite shoot towards him, he immediately raised the toy gun, but before he could pull the trigger, Xu Huo, as fast as any cannibal player, kicked the gun out of his hand and thrust a knife towards his abdomen! “Shi!” The blade pierced through the fabric but failed to injure Ma Yu. Beneath the outer layer, he wore a black bodysuit that seemed thin yet was able to block the knife’s attack! The unsuccessful strike gave Ma Yu the chance to catch his breath. He grabbed the strings, tilted his head back, and after scraping off a layer of skin, he broke free from their control. He kicked out at Xu Huo to force him back, then followed up with a series of ferocious punches that crackled in his grip! Xu Huo retreated step by step, and despite shielding himself with his arms, he couldn’t withstand the aggression and was finally punched through a brick wall! As he stood up from the rubble and debris, Ma Yu pressed in again. At the same time, another Holy Sword Society player from the second floor blocked his escape from behind! “I’ll help you out!” Huang Junjie, who stayed on the second floor with him, hurried over upon hearing the noise, deflecting the player’s attack with a knife and pulling him away from Xu Huo. Xu Huo glanced in that direction, tore off his right hand glove, and with the strings pulling him up, he surged through the air towards Ma Yu! Kicks met punches in a blur, both sides moving so fast that only their afterimages were visible. But after dozens of blows, Ma Yu couldn’t bear it anymore and retreated. Glancing at his swollen hands and arms, he felt a faint pain, indicating possible fractures. “Are you a cannibal player too?” he asked, uncertain, “Then why oppose us?” Xu Huo didn’t stop. Manipulating the strings, he followed, stepping on the broken brick wall, not giving Ma Yu a chance to get up before stomping down again! Ma Yu rolled away continuously, the ground denting underfoot, leaving a succession of craters that stretched all the way to the balcony! Seeing that he wouldn’t even utter half a word and just pressed the attack, Ma Yu, frantic with anger, asked, “Who the hell are you? Are you from the Special Affairs Bureau?” “You guess,” Xu Huo said, cutting him off at the balcony window, and with a sweeping leg, he pushed back the person trying to jump from the second floor!

Ma Yu fell back inside the building, his eyes flickering as he suddenly lunged for the dragon-shaped toy gun in the corner!
