Chapter 55: Section 55 - Impervious to Swords and Guns

Hearing Chen Fei's full-bodied speech, Shen Fei paused, reached out to touch his chest, and her cheeks quickly flushed with a slight red. "Where is your bulletproof vest?" Behind the bullet-riddled clothes were clearly solid muscles; there wasn't even a sign of blood, clearly no bulletproof vest. She felt extremely embarrassed, but... what on earth was going on? Chen Fei appeared unharmed, but the question now was, where had the bullets that were fired at him gone? "Heh, go to hell and be a pair of miserable lovebirds!" A cold laugh echoed from the chamber's exit. Chen Fei and Shen Fei looked towards the sound and saw three armed personnel blocking the exit, their dark muzzles aimed straight at them. Getting distracted in a battle would absolutely lead to fatal mistakes. Chen Fei and Shen Fei were indeed lacking in experience, and careless for a moment, allowing the enemy to take advantage of their vulnerability. An amateur might hold the advantage for a moment due to sheer luck, but failing to defeat the expert with a flurry of punches, they could easily be overturned by an experienced professional seizing the opportunity. Seeing Chen Fei shot, Teacher Shen Fei was so disoriented that she forgot to guard herself, allowing the other armed personnel to resolutely take advantage and approach the stone chamber's exit. Pfft!~ At that moment, the face of the speaking armed personnel suddenly felt inexplicably warm as if doused with a ladle of warm liquid. Reflexively wiping it off, he was horrified to see a shocking, crimson color. It was blood! Turning his head, he discovered that his comrade to the left was now only standing from the waist down; their upper body had been split into seven or eight pieces, with organs scattered all around, emitting a foul stench. Not far down the cave tunnel, a woman dressed in formal attire approached, her left eye covered with a black patch, and her right hand gently cradling a soccer-ball-sized, ceaselessly swirling Mist Sphere. The swiftly moving mist deep within carried faint, sharp screams, as if from a Hyakki Yagyo, wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves. The companion who was dismembered gaped in shock and roared immediately, "Who are you?" At the same time, he hesitated not at all to turn his gun and fire fiercely. There was no such woman among his comrades. If she wasn't one of their own, then she was certainly an enemy. Bullets had barely left the gun's muzzle before they seemed to sink into a quagmire, all halted in midair, slowly rotating before collectively clattering to the ground. Without warning, a tearing sound thundered in the cave tunnel; the two armed personnel firing with all their might seemed to be slashed across their bodies by several invisible blades, shattering instantly together with their weapons into distinguishable mounds of flesh, and the intense gunshots abruptly ceased. The escapees, Chen Fei and Shen Fei, looked at each other, bewildered. Had they seen a ghost? Three perfectly alive men had been bizarrely dismembered into pieces. "It looks like there's none!" The tone of Hanna Gagel seemed somewhat disappointed as she handed the object back. She then turned to Chen Fei again and said undeniably, "Open your shirt!" Σ(⊙_⊙!)_ What do you want to do? I sell art, not my body, what are you trying to do? Chen Fei felt a chill on his chest as his shirt was lifted. Damn... It was Teacher Shen Fei who did it, looking at this clear-browed, beautiful girl, she was such a person! Hey, hey, can you check the situation first? A boy out in the world should protect himself well. "No injuries!" Seeing is believing, Shen Fei finally confirmed her speculation, coincidentally thinking along the same lines as the female executive manager of the Aircrew Base 911, the two exchanged a look unwittingly. "What?" Chen Fei looked down in disbelief, using the dim light from a corner camping lamp to clearly see that there was not a bullet hole nor a trace of being whipped severely by a tactical belt on his chest; there were no red spots or bruises, only his clothes were tattered, obviously from the bullets. Upon briefly recalling, he quickly remembered that during the shootout, his chest felt like it had been pummeled by a series of small fists, pushing him involuntarily to keep retreating, but indeed he didn't feel any particular pain. Actually, the bullet holes on Chen Fei's clothes were not only in front of his chest and abdomen; being able to roll all the way to the stone chamber where Teacher Shen Fei was located was not just luck. The adversary was skilled in shooting; he had been hit by many bullets, but he was too busy rolling and crawling to notice. "Indeed, it's very likely an Ability Awakening!" Hanna Gagel withdrew her gaze, not too surprised. "How is that possible?" Chen Fei shook his head vigorously. It wasn't like he had never undergone a supernatural talent test. In fact, everyone, from birth, undergoes a talent test at the ages of 6, 12, and 18 to determine if there is an Ability Awakening, Magical Elemental Affinity, spiritual power strength, and Battle Qi potential among other tests. He had completed the three tests long ago and was a completely talentless commoner. Actually, whether his spiritual power was strong, whether he had any special abilities, whether he could perform magic, or whether he could consolidate a Battle Qi Seed didn't really make much difference to Chen Fei. A hardworking commoner really didn't need to think about all these possibilities, and even without these abilities, he wouldn't be easily bullied. After all, it was a society governed by law now; dialling 110 would bring stronger War Professionals, Mages, and supernatural power law enforcement officers to uphold justice. Relying on a slight talent to show off was purely overthinking. The appearance of many new things, in reality, didn't have much impact on the common people's daily life essentials like firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, and tea. "Anything can happen; there are not just one or two cases of people awakening abilities after the age of 60. When we get back to the base, I'll give you a detailed test. Can you still walk?" Hanna Gagel could see that Chen Fei was actually fine, just a bit shocked. -
