Chapter 57: Nature's Wrath

Accompanied by this explosion, the CCG motorcade stopped. Ghoul Investigators holding assault rifles rushed out of the cars, using the car doors for cover, observing their surroundings vigilantly.

"First-Class Bai Ye, are you okay?"

Mado Akira ran over holding her Quinque.

Su Xiao hid behind a car, signaling Mado Akira not to approach.

The explosion just now might have been just a test, likely trying to see if they could blow him up.

Now Su Xiao was followed by a large number of Ghoul Investigators. Unless the enemy contractor was brain-dead, it was impossible to fight him now.

The firepower of these hundred Ghoul Investigators absolutely couldn't be underestimated.

Unless the enemy contractor could instantly solve these investigators.

The street was unusually quiet, with only the hissing sound of the burning vehicle.

"It seems someone wants to kill us. Why?"

Juuzou Suzuya poked his head out to look, with an eager expression.

Just as Su Xiao was observing his surroundings, preparing to find the enemy's general direction, the enemy contractor actually acted directly.

A green shockwave instantly spread, sweeping over Su Xiao in the blink of an eye.

【You are attacked by 'Nature's Wrath', Intelligence attribute judgment in progress.】

【Judgment result: Intelligence attribute is higher than 10 points, immune to sleep effect.】

【You are immune to the control of 'Nature's Wrath', health restored to 100%.】

After the green shockwave passed, the Ghoul Investigators beside Su Xiao began to fall one after another. These people didn't die, just fell asleep, and slept exceptionally sweetly, with faint green light radiating from their bodies.

Juuzou Suzuya beside Su Xiao seemed to be drunk, his body swaying constantly. Relying on his tenacious consciousness, Juuzou Suzuya actually didn't fall.

Su Xiao grabbed Juuzou Suzuya's head and slammed it against the car door.

"Bang."

The sheet metal on the car door dented a large piece, and a wisp of blood flowed down from Juuzou Suzuya's white hair.

Juuzou Suzuya's originally confused eyes gradually regained consciousness, looking at Su Xiao with confusion.

Su Xiao was still grabbing Juuzou Suzuya's head.

"Are you awake?" If the other party wasn't awake, he was prepared to do it again.

Juuzou Suzuya nodded, and Su Xiao let go.

"What was that just now? I really wanted to sleep."

Juuzou Suzuya didn't hold a grudge at all, instead leaning closer to Su Xiao.

"Juuzou, there will be enemies appearing soon. Try your best to help me delay one or two enemies. Even if the other party isn't a Ghoul, kill them anyway. Understand?"

Juuzou Suzuya nodded.

This was the reason Su Xiao brought Juuzou Suzuya; this little white-haired guy had almost no sense of right and wrong. If it were Mado Akira, she would absolutely not accept such an order.

For Ghoul Investigators, killing Ghouls and killing humans had an essential difference.

"You hide there first and wait for my order."

While Su Xiao was speaking, he took Mado Akira's Quinque and threw it to Juuzou Suzuya.

Mado Akira had already fallen asleep; it seemed she couldn't immune the sleep effect.

Su Xiao stood up, holding Zhan Long Shan, and walked out from behind the car, his attention concentrated to the limit.

The street was quiet, with only the Ghoul Investigators who had already fallen asleep.

The other party was prepared, first using explosives to block the road, then launching group control to weaken Su Xiao's side's troops.

In an alley several hundred meters away, the green-clad girl Ye Zi looked painfully at a piece of parchment in her hand. The parchment was full of mysterious patterns, very exquisite, but at this moment, large cracks appeared on the parchment.

That was a green skill scroll, which could only be used once.

"Queen, if that guy doesn't drop a blood card, we'll be at a huge loss."

The Queen's red lips curled up.

"It doesn't matter. Even if no blood card drops, the subsequent 'World Source' is enough to compensate for our losses, and we can make a big profit. Then I'll collect a healing-type magic staff for you."

Ye Zi's eyes lit up when she heard about the healing-type magic staff, but she suddenly thought of something.

"Forget it, I want to resurrect 'Kaka' first; that requires a huge price."

The Queen's face sank; she also knew the price of resurrecting 'Kaka'.

"Alright, after this world ends, we'll resurrect 'Kaka'."

Ye Zi was somewhat moved and just wanted to speak when she was interrupted by the Queen raising her hand.

"That guy is out. Black and White, prepare to snipe."

The Queen took out a metal giant shield the size of a door, ready to meet the enemy at any time.

"Understood."

On the rooftop of a building, Black and White was lying on the edge of the roof, with a tea-colored thick cloth spread under her.

Black and White spat out her chewing gum, her purple long ponytail draped behind her back, her fair fingers pressing lightly on her temple.

"Hum~."

The sound of precision machinery came.

"Click~, click~, click~."

A small piece of head armor appeared on top of Black and White's head, and a detection device appeared in front of her right eye, somewhat similar to night-vision goggles, but the mirror surface was emitting red light and was very precise.

This was a green piece of equipment with multiple functions such as night vision, thermal sensing, and ultrasonic detection, making it an ideal piece of equipment for a sniper.

Black and White's slender fingers were placed on the trigger of the sniper rifle, and the red crosshair in the scope was aimed at Su Xiao.

Black and White hadn't dared to do this before because Su Xiao's perception was truly too sharp.

Su Xiao, walking on the street, suddenly stopped his steps, and a feeling of hair standing on end came.

He was being watched, and by a lethal weapon.

Relying on intuition, Su Xiao began to perceive the source of the danger, and soon he locked onto the general position, his upper left.

Looking in that direction, he only saw a building in the night.

Black and White, through the sniper scope, saw Su Xiao look up and was looking directly in her direction. With a light snort, Black and White was somewhat speechless.

"Damn Intelligence specialist."

While speaking, Black and White pulled the trigger...

Su Xiao was still standing in place. The feeling of danger reached its limit. Suddenly, a faint stinging pain came from the position of his heart, and his body instinctively tilted to one side.

"Bang." A gunshot tore through the night sky.

A gust of wind brushed past his shoulder, bringing a heat flow. On the asphalt road behind him, a hole with a diameter of several tens of centimeters exploded directly, asphalt splashing everywhere.

Sniper!

Su Xiao could dodge this shot not because his speed was faster than the bullet, but because he had made a dodging action in advance, which belonged to prediction.

Su Xiao, who was originally standing in place, suddenly erupted and rushed toward the source of the danger.

"Bang, bang, bang~!"

Heibai fired three shots in a row, but only one shot grazed Su Xiao's sleeve.

The distance between the two closed rapidly, from the original 700 meters to 400 meters.

Heibai's scalp felt numb; she had the feeling of being watched by a beast.

Heibai's fingers pulled the trigger rapidly.

But Su Xiao seemed to be able to predict the trajectory of the bullets in advance, and all the shots were dodged by him.

In this life-and-death moment, Su Xiao's perception became increasingly sharp, reaching an unprecedented level.

Wherever the unknown sniper's next shot was aimed, a faint stinging pain would appear in the position Su Xiao was being aimed at; this was the key to him being able to dodge the bullets.

"Queen, this guy's perception is completely abnormal. I can't lock onto him. Help me buy time; I'm using that move."

"No problem."

The Queen hiding in the alley nodded.

"Ye Zi, you continue to hide here and find an opportunity to heal me."

Ye Zi nodded. Before the Queen rushed out of the alley, a emerald green light appeared in Ye Zi's hand.

"Honor Badge."

The green light on the Queen's body flourished, and the muscles on her arms were visibly bulging.

"I'm going. Keep an eye on my health."

The Queen rushed out of the alley, roaring as she charged toward Su Xiao.

The Queen, who had Stamina as her main attribute, wasn't fast, but during the charge toward Su Xiao, her speed became faster and faster, finally almost becoming an afterimage.

Su Xiao noticed the Queen charging rapidly and could only temporarily abandon the unknown sniper.

"Juuzou, go to the rooftop of that shopping mall and solve the enemy above." ===== CHAPTER 58 =====
