Chapter 693

Gunshot

Spurt——!

Following a soft sound, the head of a Second-Tier bodyguard was tossed up into the rain. His facial features glared hideously at those four towering Silver Phantoms, his face full of anger and unwillingness.

He was exactly that bodyguard holding the Detonator. During the melee just now, he tried to attract these Silver Phantoms to approach the second trap, but his strength wasn't as good as the Third Tier Little Five. Having just lured them half a street's distance away, two Silver Phantoms seized the opportunity and directly decapitated him from behind!

The explosive Detonator rolled clattering on the distant ground. Dripping fresh blood splattered like a fountain. The two closest Silver Phantoms had already put on a layer of Blood Raiment, terrifying and ghastly.

Huang Suyue personally witnessed this scene, her face pale as paper.

Relying solely on these three Second-Tier bodyguards, it was absolutely impossible to stop six Silver Phantoms, and under the absolute disparity in numbers, even luring them into the traps couldn't be done... A sense of deathly crisis and despair rushed at her face in the rain, almost suffocating Huang Suyue.

She instinctively wanted to move her legs, drill into the underground steps right next to her, and hide in the safe Shelter. To escape this blood-drenched battlefield, and those few Silver Phantoms that were about to pounce on her...

But her rationality told her, she absolutely couldn't move.

You must know, if this group of Silver Phantoms broke into the underground, those fifty thousand refugees wouldn't even have a place to escape to, and the Shelter would also be reduced to a bloody purgatory.

"Damn it... damn it!!" Another blood-bathed fighting bodyguard, was still desperately stopping two Silver Phantoms, his eyes full of bloodshot streaks,

"I'll fight it out with you guys!!"

He roared angrily, his Divine Path Aura erupting to its peak at this moment. Carrying the sky full of fine rain, he crashed towards the two Silver Phantoms. For a time, he actually suppressed the other party, but before it lasted long, another bloodstained Silver Phantom thrust over from behind, chopping off one of his arms with one strike.

A miserable and shrill scream echoed in the horizon. The child lying by the drain secretly looking outside was also scared completely pale, his whole body violently trembling.

Standing right at the door of the Shelter, Huang Suyue caught this scene from the corner of her eye. After seeing clearly that small figure hiding behind the drain, her pupils slightly contracted... After brief surprise, she looked at this child, her gaze extremely complicated.

This small drain, however, connected the bloody and desperate battlefield with the comfortable and peaceful Shelter. Two figures currently in different worlds and different fates, looked at each other at this moment.

Looking at this child, the youth outside the city who helplessly died in front of her eyes due to wound infection unconsciously surfaced in Huang Suyue's mind.

At that time, she carried an entire fleet's wealth, yet couldn't save the youth's life... Now, she had exhausted all her wealth, but gained the opportunity to save tens of thousands of lives.

Looking at those eyes carrying terror, yet also carrying a child's purity, Huang Suyue's body that was originally still trembling due to despair, suddenly calmed down.

The massacre was approaching, despair was spreading. Unknowingly, this street had already been dyed blood-red.

Huang Suyue stood amidst the blood-red color, like a lamb waiting for death. She already had nowhere to run... But even so, a smile still squeezed out of the corner of her mouth. Towards the child behind the drain, she gently raised her fingertips, making a shushing gesture.

"Shh——"

...

"Miss Huang..."

In the shop across the street, Kong Baosheng's expression was incomparably anxious.

From the very beginning just now, Kong Baosheng had been hiding under the table of this shop. Just as he was preparing to head to the Shelter, he saw those two Silver Phantoms kill Little Five, scaring him into hiding back again... And exactly because of this, he wasn't directly exposed on the street like Huang Suyue and the others, and the Silver Phantoms simply didn't notice his existence either.

He watched as Huang Suyue was intercepted by six Silver Phantoms, and the bodyguards beside her died in battle one after another. His heart instantly leaped to his throat.

"What do I do... what do I do, what do I do, what do I do..."

Kong Baosheng wanted to help Huang Suyue, but didn't know what he should do... When it comes down to it, he was just an Ordinary Person.

"Is there nothing that can attract the attention of those monsters a bit?"

Kong Baosheng looked around. After hesitating for a moment, he hunched his waist and drilled to the back of the shop, consecutively climbing over two walls, and returning to the courtyard of the Jinghong Theater.

Treading the muddy soil, he quickly ran back to the side of the stage, his hands rummaging through a thick and heavy wooden box.

Theatrical Robes, makeup powder, tasseled spears, copper gongs... Large and small items were thrown all over the ground by Kong Baosheng. Finally, he dug out a wind-up wooden horse he played with when he was little from inside...

Kong Baosheng stared at the wind-up wooden horse for a while, then still furrowed his brows and threw it aside, letting out a long sigh.

He felt he was still too naive. Silver Phantoms that could destroy a street with their every movement, how could they possibly be attracted by a small broken wooden horse... Even a fantasy tale wouldn't dare to write like this.

"Is there really no other way?!"

Kong Baosheng looked back out the window. On the street not far away, the second bodyguard also had his head chopped off with one strike. Even though they desperately killed one Silver Phantom before they died, there were still five bloodstained monsters approaching the last bodyguard and Huang Suyue like grim reapers.

Right at this moment, Kong Baosheng seemed to see something. His gaze suddenly landed on the Theater House door in the rain, that section of the Detonator soaking in the bloody water.

He froze in place.

In his mind, that earth-shattering explosion just now instantly flashed back, along with those few bodyguards who drilled into the Dessert Shop to busy themselves even earlier...

Kong Baosheng's fists unconsciously clenched.

...

A mostly shattered Silver Phantom body slowly stood up from the pool of blood.

Following the last bodyguard trading one for one, the original six Silver Phantoms had already been reduced to four. Two of their gazes turned to the only remaining Huang Suyue on the street, walking straight towards her.

And the other two Silver Phantoms didn't target Huang Suyue. In their eyes, Huang Suyue was already a dead person.

They dispersed towards the surrounding streets, continuing to search for traces of refugees bit by bit. One of them was currently approaching the direction of the Shelter entrance...

And at this time, Huang Suyue, under the approach of the two Silver Phantoms, was constantly retreating. Her gaze passed through the gap between the two Silver Phantoms, seeing that Silver Phantom in the rear that was about to reach the Shelter door. Her heart instantly leaped to her throat!

Only to see that Silver Phantom look around, suddenly lowering its head. Its flat head seemed to be "looking" at the ground in front of the underground steps... The messy muddy footprints had already been mostly washed away by the rainwater, but still left some traces.

It slowly raised its head to "look" towards the direction where the underground steps were located.

Huang Suyue knew, she absolutely couldn't let that Silver Phantom continue advancing anymore. Her fingertips touched a wisp of coldness at her waist. She abruptly pulled out that Handgun, aiming at the Silver Phantom and pulling the trigger!

Bang——!!
