Chapter 121: Fierce Battle, Bai Cangshu
【Wuxin】's heart pounded violently; he kept his communicator clutched in his hand, ready to call for backup at any moment.
Although he did not possess that person's kind of brain, having followed the other party through so many missions, he should at least be able to understand how this Infinite Dimension Game was meant to be played.
Deceit and treachery; discard all rules and common sense, and fathom every Reincarnator with the most malicious intent, regardless of whether the space's arrangement deems them your teammate or your opponent.
Everyone except yourself is an enemy.
Only a dead Reincarnator is a good Reincarnator.
He gasped for air, looking at the veteran Reincarnator whose heart he had crushed, and felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart.
But suddenly, he realized something was wrong; the other party was twitching and had not died, and the space had not popped up a kill notification.
He retreated two steps in nervousness, took clear water from his Backpack and splashed it on instantly, and the bloodstains on his body began to dissipate.
At this moment, Jiebo, lying on the ground, finally spat out the blood foam in his throat, and a strange smile actually appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"You actually came out, you idiot, heh."
"One last reminder: watch out for that Tao Baibai, he wants to peel off your turtle shell..."
Having said that, Jiebo collapsed on the ground and made no further sound, and the appearance of that corpse changed rapidly, turning into the likeness of a woman.
Wuxin still did not see a kill notification, and fear now filled his heart; suddenly, thinking of Jiebo's words, he immediately went to the edge of the rooftop and looked at the chaotic street below.
The riots between gangs and police were still continuing, the number of dead and injured was constantly rising, and the figures of some heroes had begun to appear; his gaze shifted constantly across the scene.
That guy, that guy wearing a pink robe with an incredibly ugly face, was Tao Baibai.
Gone!
His heart beat with extreme violence, and a certain fear struck rapidly.
The failure to hunt down Jiebo made him realize that these famous Reincarnators were far more formidable than he had imagined, not at all comparable to the Reincarnators he had faced before; they all possessed some kind of trump card.
Step.
A light sound of landing rang out; Wuxin held his breath and turned around, and sure enough, he saw that terrifying Tao Baibai had already jumped onto this rooftop.
The other party first glanced at the woman's corpse left behind by Jiebo, even digging out some internal organs and flesh from the hole in the corpse's chest, and carefully ground them with his hand.
This scene made Wuxin even more certain that this guy was probably a freak too.
Bai Cangshu sniffed the blood; it had long since rotted and stunk, like a corpse that had been dead for who knows how long.
But the marks on the wound were very fresh.
This guy Jiebo really did have some special abilities; whether it was that kind of energy that stung his Spirit or this current special ability to substitute death, both made him very difficult to kill.
"Since that's the case, I might as well kill you first and get the card before doing anything else."
Bai Cangshu suddenly turned around and looked straight at the transparent 【Wuxin】; the corners of his mouth hooked up, revealing a grim smile.
"At a time like this, don't tell me that card isn't on you."
"If so, I will be very disappointed..."
Thump!
The ground shook violently; in his horror, Wuxin immediately pressed the communication device.
"Come save me quickly!"
He could no longer spare the thought of why Tao Baibai was able to discover him, because a massive Force had already appeared from in front of him.
The light of the protective talisman had just lit up when it crackled and subsequently shattered.
Bang!
Wuxin was struck by the residual force and instantly slid backward, unable to control himself.
Golden Ripple flowed over Bai Cangshu's right arm, the joints instantly dislocated, and he took a fierce step forward, his right hand stretching out a segment to grab the transparent figure sliding backward.
His senses were sharp; although the other party's Transparency ability made his internal organs transparent, rendering them completely invisible, the sound of the other party's heartbeat was very clear.
This guy was probably an inexperienced Reincarnator who could not control his emotions and heartbeat during drastic changes, allowing Bai Cangshu to see through him directly.
Bai Cangshu grabbed the other party's body with one hand, his expression changing slightly; the next moment, he pulled back violently, destroying the other party's center of gravity while his right palm retracted—the pain of the dislocated joints was nothing to him in the face of his level 7 Ripple Qigong, and it healed instantly.
Bai Cangshu's right palm spiraled and tensed.
The terrifying creaking sound made Wuxin's heart sink to the bottom; his spine stung, and the pain of facing death directly made his whole body tremble.
I'm going to die...
【Xiandao Luochazhang】!
The air was torn apart by the spiraling Force, and the searing white air emitted a terrifying whistling sound.
Boom!
The space in front of Bai Cangshu became Empty, and a more intense sonic boom followed; the gale directly shattered the airflow stirred up by the Rakshasa Palm into white foam that dissipated with the wind.
Bai Cangshu retreated two steps, his heart beating violently, and his figure had already expanded.
He instantly entered the posture of his activated talent; his perception of danger was powerful to the extreme, his figure slightly hunched, muscles relaxed, knees slightly bent—the whole person was like a tiger in a hunting state.
A-Train, wearing a blue suit, appeared at the edge of the rooftop, one hand grabbing the trembling "Translucent," while looking at the Asian man who had assumed a stance.
"Chinese Kung Fu?"
A-Train's pronunciation was not standard, but looking at the dangerous posture Bai Cangshu revealed, he truly felt a sense of danger.
Bai Cangshu exhaled a breath of turbid air, the white breath spraying out like a sharp sword for nearly two meters; his attainments in Breathing Style were already extremely high, and he could be considered a martial arts master to a certain degree.
Looking at 【A-Train】, who possessed a Superpower with a top speed of 342 meters per second, Bai Cangshu was poised and ready; the other party not only had a speed approaching the speed of sound, but his body could also withstand the pressure brought by that level of speed.
Therefore, compared to an ordinary person, A-Train's strength and Constitution were actually quite terrifying; crashing into an ordinary person would leave him unscathed.
Wuxin only then came back to his senses; he gasped for air and patted A-Train's shoulder hard, signaling the other party to put him down.
A-Train did not pay attention to this overly weak "Translucent"; except for the point of being transparent, the other party did not have a single bit of similarity to 【Translucent】 and had no combat power at all.
It was entirely because Homelander needed a living "Translucent" that the other party was allowed into The Seven.
"Are you sure you want me to put you down?"
"This guy could probably kill you in a second."
A-Train does not like Mu, but he has leverage held by the other party.
He does not know how the other party knows that news, but he knows that once Mu dies, the pre-set emails will be mass-sent to the Vought operations department and Homelander.
Then he would completely lose everything.
Bai Cangshu slowly straightens his figure, relaxes his entire body's muscles, and suddenly walks toward A-Train step by step, appearing to have no defenses in his movements.
A-Train is confused, then suddenly disappears in an instant.
Boom!
He appears instantly in front of Bai Cangshu and throws a punch; as Bai Cangshu's pupils tremble, he finally catches the other party's figure, but that fist has already struck Bai Cangshu's side profile at this moment.
A great force strikes; Bai Cangshu's figure twists instantly, his right foot swinging up as if casually.
"Watch out!"
Mu warns loudly.
A-Train tilts his head, only then noticing that the right foot, which seemed to be swinging due to inertia, has actually arrived near his head.
He disappears instantly.
Pfft!
The kick misses, and the air emits a dull explosive sound. Bai Cangshu flips in mid-air dozens of times and lands steadily on both feet; there is a bruise on his cheek, but he has not suffered any greater injury.
A-Train looks at his own fist, feeling somewhat strange.
The sensation of the punch he just landed felt very wrong.
Bai Cangshu reveals a smile; the force of A-Train's punch is far lower than he expected—converted, it is likely slightly lower than his own.
This matches the performance in the show where the other party could not gain much of an advantage in hand-to-hand combat against Starlight and others.
In Bai Cangshu's view, A-Train's best method of attack is likely to create distance, run to build up speed, and then directly smash the opponent.
He lifts his foot again and walks toward A-Train.
"A-Train, let's go first!"
Mu has already sensed something amiss; this Tao Baibai's movements likely involve some kind of martial arts-based Superpower. This type of person is extremely powerful in close-quarters combat. He is already frightened by the successive changes and does not dare to fight to the death, even though A-Train was coerced beforehand to hold the line.
He is still worried that he will die.
!
A-Train naturally will not be scared away by an unknown person; he snorts coldly and disappears instantly once again.
Bai Cangshu's pupils tremble continuously, attempting to keep up with the other party's speed.
In the blink of an eye, he begins to adapt bit by bit, able to see blurred afterimages.
Boom!
A punch comes; Bai Cangshu tilts his head, but his cheek is still grazed. A-Train disappears again; in an instant, it is as if countless figures are around Bai Cangshu, continuously striking him.
Bai Cangshu's figure trembles continuously; every time he is hit, his body jolts violently.
Skilled 【Force Dissipation】 allows him to avoid a large amount of such damage; for a moment, A-Train finds that he is actually unable to knock the other party down.
He is angry in his heart; his figure instantly turns into an afterimage, running a circle on the outer wall, then suddenly rushes from the front and throws a punch.
This punch carries powerful speed, and the air emits a whistling sound.
Bai Cangshu's eyes brighten; he exhales and calls out, opening his body as well, with the Ripple circulating on his right arm.
A-Train throws a punch, but in his eyes, the slower Bai Cangshu suddenly thrusts his tensed right hand out like a great spear.
【Magic Spear】!
Pfft!
The air is directly pierced through, and the ripple-shaped airflow instantly impacts and scatters.
A-Train tilts his head, the momentum of the impact dispersed by his own dodging movement; he stares blankly, looking back at the other party's terrifying strike, doubting in his heart if this is some kind of Superpower.
But Bai Cangshu has already stepped forward again, his left hand grabbing A-Train's shoulder. A-Train struggles with force, only to find he cannot break free; the other party's strength is shockingly great.
Bai Cangshu reveals a grim smile, and golden light begins to condense at his right fingertips.
"Run, A-Train!"
Mu warns loudly, also pulling out a firearm and continuously firing at Bai Cangshu.
But Bai Cangshu is extremely keen in his Killing Intent Perception regarding such aiming; he instantly pulls A-Train to change positions. While blocking the shooting angle of the bullets, the light of the Dodon Ray has already fully condensed.
A-Train senses the terrifying energy in front of him, which actually gives him a fear akin to being targeted by Homelander's Heat Vision.
Boom!
A-Train suddenly exerts force with his feet, instantly dragging Bai Cangshu to sprint. The intense speed carries inertia, and in an instant, they crash out of the edge of the building. Bai Cangshu's expression changes slightly, but with a movement of his fingertips, the Dodon Ray is instantly fired.
Pfft!
A-Train is pierced through in mid-air; carrying powerful inertia, he flies out hundreds of meters and crashes into the building opposite.
Bai Cangshu begins to fall from the height of nearly a hundred meters.
"Ah!"
At this moment, passersby and people working in the building finally see someone falling from the building and scream.
Bai Cangshu suddenly spreads his arms in the air; amidst the circulating golden Ripple, his already expanded body stretches even further, as if spreading wings, his figure completely extended.
With his current Constitution, falling directly to the ground from a hundred-meter height indeed carries a significant possibility of serious injury or death.
But Bai Cangshu feels no fear at this moment; he does not feel the terror of death approaching.
He only feels excitement; he knows he will survive.
My time of death has not arrived yet!
Bai Cangshu stretches himself like a weasel; the intense airflow begins to cause him to drift in the air. Bai Cangshu observes his surroundings with his eyes, instantly adjusting his position. He only needs a little bit of external force to be enough to shift his falling trajectory.
He does not hesitate, his fingertips glowing again; the golden Dodon Ray condenses rapidly. The second before he is about to hit the ground, he points a finger diagonally downward.
Hum~ Boom!
A violent explosion occurred, and Bai Cangshu flipped a few times, landing gracefully atop a streetlamp.
He looked up at the hundred-meter-tall building, then looked at his own unharmed self, as well as A-Train who had been knocked into the building opposite, and then connected it to the chaos on the ground, where tear gas smoke and panicked screams were everywhere.
His heart was exceptionally joyful.
"Hahahahaha..."
He laughed wildly, feeling that a certain instinct he had suppressed in his heart all this time was awakening.
He just wanted to do things like this, to transcend all limits, to do anything he wanted to do; enemies could not defeat him, Heaven could not restrict him, and gravity could not kill him.
This feeling is truly too good.
Bai Cangshu laughed with extreme delight; this scene happened to be seen by George and Bobby, who were struggling in panic amidst the smoke, and they inexplicably gave rise to a surge of strength, yearning for the power of Tao Baibai, yearning for the ambition of Tao Baibai.
At this moment, they seemed to understand what it was they wanted to do.
"Ha~"
The two looked at each other, suddenly picked up the riot shields dropped on the ground, and slammed toward the perimeter.
"Screw your law and order!"
"We are gangsters!"
The chaos could no longer be contained.
【Your Reputation in the special faction b45 Gangster has increased, current: Reverence】
Atop the high building, Mu could not care about the chaos below and immediately contacted Vought headquarters.
"We have been attacked, A-Train is injured, requesting support!"
Whir!
A beam of light shone, and the next moment, Mu screamed, his pupils dilating as he looked at his severed right hand.
"Ah, my hand!"
A silver-haired youth appeared on the rooftop, a cruel smile on the face of 【The Boys】.
"You guy, you can't even play hide-and-seek well."
"But that's fine, it saves me some effort."
Hum!
The air let out a sharp whistle; The Boys looked up, saw the circles of sonic boom clouds exploding in the far distance, and knew that Homelander would likely appear soon, so he immediately threw a flying knife, stabbing it into Mu's chest.
At this moment, Mu's ability finally dissipated, revealing his original appearance; The Boys felt a sense of relief in his heart, but rapid Footwork sounded instantly, and the next moment, Mu had already disappeared.
Thanks to Super Orichalcos God for the tip.
