Chapter 219 The Third Leg of the Spider
The deaths of Feitan and Knight have put the entire Phantom Troupe into a rare state of tension.
This is not out of concern for their own safety, because spiders are never afraid of death.
At this moment, there is only a pure, almost substantial murderous intention filling every member's heart.
They desperately want to find the murderer and then cut him into pieces.
Franklin ended the topic of the group leader going to Liuying Country and turned his head to look at the man in a burgundy suit walking straight towards them.
Until the man came in front of them, Franklin and Peshalev were still sitting firmly on their chairs, their expressions unchanged.
The visitor's posture was upright, with a sinister light in his narrow eyes.
The man in the burgundy suit put his hands in his pockets and looked at Franklin and Lev Levy at close range.
He is Charles, the second-in-command of the local gangster Ino family.
This time, he came alone to meet Franklin and Peshalev. It can be seen to some extent that he is a person who is relatively confident in his own strength.
"A member of the Eno family?"
Franklin slowly wiped the pastry crumbs on his fingers with a paper towel and asked.
The Peeling Lev next to him was silent, staring at Ciel with only his eyes exposed from the gap between the bandages.
Hiel stared for a moment, feeling the fierce aura exuding from the two of them at close range, and slowly took out his hands from his trouser pockets.
No need for secondary confirmation.
The two guys in front of me are undoubtedly members of the Phantom Troupe.
"That's right, I am Ciel from the Ino family, and I will lead this transaction."
Even though the auras of Franklin and Lev Lev are quite intimidating, Ciel is not a bad person either. As the second-in-command of the Ino family, he has seen many storms and waves, and is used to dealing with all kinds of dangerous people.
After Franklin confirmed Charles's identity, he went straight to the point: "According to the terms negotiated in advance, we will pay half of the remuneration first, and then pay the balance after the matter is over."
Ciel fell into a brief silence upon hearing this.
Originally, he wanted to raise the price.
But after feeling the dangerous aura emanating from the brigade members at close range, he rationally suppressed this thought. Although there was no basis for it, he was very sure.
The two spiders in front of him would simply kill him, and they would not care about the revenge from the Ino family.
"Okay."
After a brief silence, Ciel responded.
This simple response marked the formal establishment of the deal that he personally came forward to do.
Franklin and Flaxlev stood up directly and walked past Ciel on both sides.
Humbling on one side was Franklin's heavy footsteps, and on the other side was Peeling Lev's almost silent steps. Two completely different senses of oppression brushed against Ciel's side like a knife blade.
"What a dangerous monster."
Char was motionless, his knuckles were slightly stiff, and cold sweat was running down his back.
It wasn't until Franklin's heavy footsteps faded away that he finally turned around, but he could no longer see the figures of Franklin and Peluolev. As far as he could see, there were only lively crowds of people coming and going.
Char squeezed his palms vigorously to relieve the stiffness from his fingertips,
Tap click - At this moment, several members of the Enoch family came over from a distance.
"Brother Charles, how was the negotiation? How much did you raise the price?"
One of the members asked enthusiastically.
Charles' eyes still stayed in the direction where Franklin and Peellev disappeared, and he slowly shook his head: "It didn't happen."
"Huh?"
Several of his men were stunned at the same time, exchanging disbelieving looks with each other.
Charles put his hands back into his pockets, frowned and said: "Don't mention raising the price, now - I feel that doing business with these monsters may be a mistake."
After negotiating the deal, Franklin and Peellev left Zhongyang City directly.
They drove an off-road vehicle, avoiding the road and driving directly into the countryside.
As Class A wanted criminals, they can certainly walk around as they please, but they cannot take normal transportation.
So they came to Guganyu by smuggling, and when they left, they naturally had to leave by smuggling.
A certain location in the plain area.
The vehicle driven by Moreau was parked on the grass.
"Is this "location" accurate?"
After parking the car, Moreau looked at Curt in the passenger seat.
Curt was currently staring down at the life paper figure in his palm, feeling regular tremors on his fingertips.
Every tremor conveys information like a heartbeat.
The greater the amplitude of the tremor, the closer the distance to the target.
This ability is not only used for tracking.
By carefully observing the changes in the trembling frequency of the paper figurine, you can accurately determine whether the target is moving away or approaching.
Based on the principle of this ability, as long as you choose the correct position and stand still, you can transform simple "tracking" into active "interception".
Ability is something that does not necessarily have to follow the rules.
As long as it is used properly, it can often produce unexpected effects.
"Accurate."
Cote felt the increasingly intense tremors and whispered: "The target is coming in our direction."
"Okay."
Morrow got out of the car and walked forward along the butt of the car for a distance, then stopped and looked up into the distance.
Relying on the guidance of the Paper Man of Life, they tracked all the way to Gu Ganyu, and finally located the locations of Franklin and Peeloff Lev in Zhongyang City.
It’s just that Moreau did not act rashly, but was cautious enough to watch the movements of Franklin and Fellev from a distance.
Morrow is in no rush as to when to take action.
Furthermore, let’s not talk about whether the Phantom Troupe has any hidden traps. If they do it in the city, the possibility of being exposed later is quite high.
With this in mind, Moreau even restrained himself from “waiting and watching”.
Because there is always guidance from the life paper man, there is no need to worry about losing it.
Based on this, there is no need to monitor the movements of Franklin and Lev Levy intensively.
That would increase the possibility of exposure.
This is what Moreau did.
Just like when he was hunting knights, it was terrifyingly stable.
「Coming.」
A gray off-road vehicle appeared in Morrow's field of vision. He immediately squatted down and reached into the grass with his right hand, sticking it against the wet sand.
Silently, part of the body's manifest energy moved like a torrent to the right hand that was close to the ground.
At the same time.
Franklin and Peellev, who were riding off-road vehicles, immediately saw a car parked directly in front, and.
Moreau was squatting on the grass some distance away from the car.
"Coming for us."
Franklin's eyes flashed with a cold murderous intent.
For every member of the brigade, encountering beings such as bounty hunters is a normal thing.
Because in their opinion, these people who came to seek trouble might be the murderers of Feitan and Xia Ke.
Morrow stared at the gray off-road vehicle that showed no signs of slowing down. Even though it was still a long distance away, he could already "receive" the murderous intent from Franklin and Peellev.
Are you stressed?
Based on his understanding of the brigade, this group of free-spirited guys usually would not reveal such naked murderous intentions immediately even if they saw a suspicious person suddenly appear.
Even the most belligerent Wo Jin can only ignite the will to fight in this situation.
Hence, Moreau can roughly guess the reason why Franklin and Flaxlev reacted so violently. It is most likely because of the deaths of Feitan and Knight.
"It has little impact."
Morrow whispered to himself, and the thought power covering his right hand suddenly condensed and disappeared.
In an instant, a cross star suddenly lit up on the grass in front of the gray off-road vehicle. The faint blue light was mostly obscured by the grass blades blowing in the wind.
At the moment when half of the off-road vehicle's body had just crossed the cross star!
A faint blue flying star shot out from the center of the star array and accurately hit the vehicle chassis.
In the deafening explosion, the violent energy instantly shredded the steel frame.
The entire off-road vehicle fell apart like paper, and a blazing fireball rose into the sky. The broken metal fragments scattered with flames, drawing dozens of red lines of fire in the night sky.
The scorching air waves caused by the explosion swept across the surroundings, bending the blades of grass.
After Moreau succeeded in the attack, he immediately stood up and looked through the churning curtain of fire.
I saw Franklin and Flaylev flying out of the explosion flames, looking quite embarrassed.
The blazing flames left obvious marks on their bodies.
Franklin's always neat robe was already covered with scorch marks, and his exposed skin was glowing with an unnatural red color and peeling off like a wolf fox. The bandage wrapped around his body had been burned to pieces, with only a few strands of charred cloth still hanging on his body, fluttering in the hot wind.
"Release the system?"
Hundred meters away, the attack suddenly appeared from the ground. Even if Lev was not good at analysis, he could rely on his rich experience to judge Moro's telepathy attribute at once.
Even so, he glanced at Franklin immediately.
Franklin nodded, confirming Peellev's judgment.
And at this moment - Morrow's next wave of offensive came.
Fluorescent green flying stars streaked across the sky, trailing a deadly light tail.
On the path of the flying star, the violent airflow was like an invisible giant blade, neatly cutting a deep gap in the turf on the ground.
Just as the meteor was getting closer and closer to its target, it split without warning, and instantly turned into hundreds of fluorescent green streams of light, pouring down like a torrential rain, completely covering Franklin and Peeloff Lev, who had just escaped from the explosion.
Faced with the fluorescent green flying stars that came like a rainstorm, Franklin's eyes flashed and he raised his thick arms suddenly.
His thick knuckles fell off neatly like a machine cover, revealing ten dark finger holes.
logs of fire spewing out from the finger hole, dense diamond-shaped bullets spurted out from it like a violent storm, weaving a web of firepower in the air.
The next moment,
The green flying stars collided with the diamond-shaped teleportation bullets, triggering a chain explosion, and the entire sky was suddenly illuminated by continuous firelight.
The shock wave of the explosion blew up the nearby vegetation and trees, and in the scorching hot air waves, the remaining fragments of Lev's bandages were dancing wildly.
After Franklin used his two-handed machine guns to wipe out the flying stars, he did not cease fire, but adjusted his direction.
The dense firepower network of mental bullets suddenly bit towards Morrow's position like a giant.
Just as he made such a counterattack, he saw Moreau squatting on the ground with his hands close to the grass.
The posture was exactly the same as when he destroyed the off-road vehicle before.
"Huh?"
The image of the off-road vehicle's chassis being hit suddenly flashed through Franklin's mind, and his fighting instinct was like an alarm bell.
Him without hesitation, he forcibly intercepted the teleportation, and his strong body jumped out sideways with incredible agility.
Almost at the same time as he jumped out sideways, a blue cross star suddenly bloomed where he was standing, and a flying star flew out from it, blazing past the sole of his boots and shooting into the sky like a rocket.
Seeing this scene, Franklin's pupils shrank.
If he had reacted a little slower just now, the blue flying star would have penetrated directly from under his arm.
In a defenseless state, the violent telekinesis will crush his internal organs like a meat grinder.
This is not alarmist.
Because he was in the state of releasing the power of "two-handed machine guns |", most of the manifest energy of his body was gathered in his hands.
In this state, at least the defense of his lower body is very weak.
/>
Let alone flying stars, even if a gun suddenly appeared from the ground and aimed at his lower body and shot... -.
It would be enough to kill him.
When Franklin was frightened, there was a roar in his ears.
He glanced sharply and saw that Peixiao Lev was hit by a flying star that suddenly burst out of the ground.
The moment the flying star touched and peeled off Lev's telekinesis, it exploded violently.
The violent impact directly blasted away a large amount of soil and grass clippings, and also lifted Lev off several meters away.
But under the protection of "Jian", Peeling Lev did not suffer any substantial damage and landed steadily from mid-air.
After all, the opponent divided the attack strength into two, so the power was naturally not as powerful as the blow that destroyed the off-road vehicle just now.
But at the moment when Peeling Lev's feet touched the ground, a white python came from the side and bit into Peeling Lev's side.
That white is obviously a large amount of paper scraps controlled by Kurt.
Peeling Lev's eyes were slightly cold. He originally wanted to use his ability to transform, but it took a little time to move forward when transforming, so it was obviously not allowed in this case.
He decisively gave up the idea of transforming, jumped back, and avoided Kurt's attack.
The white python made of paper scraps pounced on the grass, bursting like fireworks in a short time. A large number of paper scraps spread out and enveloped Lev.
However, as soon as his thoughts came up, he suddenly felt that the energy of thoughts in his body was fading away like the tide.
「What!?」
Encountered such an inexplicable situation, Lev, who had always been calm, could not help but look shocked.
Hush -
Him - Immediately afterwards, Peeling Lev felt the restraint force coming from his body.
He looked down and saw a translucent chain emerging from the "hidden" state, wrapping around his waist like a poisonous snake.
Hurry up and break free from this chain!"
Left's pupils trembled.
Suddenly a bright red light appeared in front of his eyes.
「Huh?」
Before Peeling Lev could react, there was a tingling sensation on his forehead.
But it was Moreau who stepped forward, holding a ruby bird knife, and stabbed it directly into Peeling Lev's forehead.
"It's so pitiful - it seems that the transformation trick you are so proud of has no chance to be used again."
Peeling Lev was shocked, and before his consciousness fell into darkness, he heard Moreau's voice with a hint of contempt.
