Chapter 670

It was good news that the Clown was using the "Flame Prison Absolute Realm" to attack; it meant the opponent was at his wit's end.

Su Xiao increased his attack frequency and occasionally threw an alchemy bomb. Loud explosions rang out on the rooftop, leaving holes everywhere.

Three minutes later, the smile on the Clown's face vanished. He had a doubt in his heart: did Su Xiao not need mana to replenish his energy bullets? Why was he acting as if mana was free?

Soon, the Clown cast this absurd thought aside. Such things wouldn't happen in Reincarnation Paradise. Although there were many supernatural abilities in Reincarnation Paradise, it didn't mean these abilities lacked rules or limits. At the very least, the Clown had never seen firearms with infinite ammunition. So-called "infinite ammunition" either consumed the equipment's own energy or consumed mana.

"Is his mana above mine? What kind of close-quarters combat is this?"

The usually confident Clown looked at Su Xiao with a sense of helplessness.

"Strength and Agility attributes are similar to mine, Stamina is above mine—could he be developing his Intelligence attribute as well? Developing four attributes simultaneously? This..."

The Clown, who was developing three attributes simultaneously, sighed. His main attributes were Strength, Agility, and Intelligence, with Stamina being on the lower side. This was evident from his previous fight with Su Xiao; his endurance was not as good as Su Xiao's.

Su Xiao ignored the Clown's muttering and poured firepower onto him with the black and white pistols. When the pistols were cooling down from reloading, he would pull out the Spider Queen to fire a few shots at the Clown.

Five minutes later, Su Xiao was still firing at the Clown with the black and white pistols.

With a splat, several bloody holes suddenly burst open on the Clown's chest and abdomen. The Clown glanced at the bullet holes and just smiled.

Click-clack...

The black and white pistols were out of ammo. The shooting took 5 seconds, and reloading would take another five.

"Wait."

The Clown raised his single arm. Su Xiao brought the Spider Queen up in front of him and fired a shot directly at the Clown.

Bang!

Shattered bone and rotting flesh splattered everywhere; half of the Clown's body was blown apart.

Despite this lethal injury, the Clown didn't die. One had to know that his heart had already been blown to pieces.

Drip, drip...

Blood seeped from several wounds on Su Xiao's body. He couldn't hold on much longer. He had been stabbed by a dagger by the leader, hit by a hand-blade from Illumi, and shot by Vini. If he hadn't used three bottles of No. 1 Potion to suppress his injuries, he wouldn't be able to stand right now.

"Let's... talk..."

Su Xiao ignored the Clown entirely and aimed the muzzle of the Spider Queen at the Clown's head.

The Clown had a very high IQ and his words were extremely inflammatory; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to trick a group of believers into working for him, nor would he have been able to lure the Nilapan tribe from the Dark Continent.

This was one of the Clown's skills: Language Master (Passive Lv. 25).

Unfortunately, Su Xiao didn't communicate with the Clown at all. In his view, aside from extracting intelligence from enemies, talking nonsense with them was a foolish act.

He pulled the trigger, and the bullet left the chamber.

With a splat, half of the Clown's head was blown away. Even so, the Clown still didn't die! The survival capability of the Demon bloodline was evident.

Click-clack.

The Spider Queen was out of ammo. Su Xiao put it away and walked quickly toward the Clown.

"Do you want to know the secret of the rule-breakers? You won, I can..."

Su Xiao walked up to the Clown and drew the Checking Zhan Long Shan from his waist.

The long blade slashed down, clean and decisive, and the head, already half-shattered, flew into the air.

"I don't want to know."

Su Xiao flicked the blood off the Checking Zhan Long Shan, the Clown's blood forming a semicircle on the ground.

"Ah-la-la, just 50 seconds short."

The larger half of the head in mid-air actually spoke. This was an extremely unscientific event. The Clown's tone held some regret, but no fear. The pupil in his single eye gradually dilated.

Beep, beep, beep...

An old-fashioned phone in the Clown's arms rang, the time on it frozen at 49 seconds. With a snap, this forced-return item shattered.

【Notification: The Hunter has successfully cleared Rule-breaker No. 10000. The hunting mission is complete (5/5).】

【Hunting Mission: Clear the Gentleman Alliance (Completed).】

【You have obtained Golden Honor Medal x1 (Honor Medal ranks are: Bronze, Silver, Gold, etc.)】

【You have obtained one multi-choice opportunity for a derived world (Before entering the next derived world, the Hunter can choose one from three derived worlds to enter).】

【Notification: The Hunter has completed the mission to clear a rule-breaker alliance for the first time. Because rule-breakers cannot form adventure teams, they mostly form alliances.】

The Gentleman Alliance's violations are as follows:

1. Repeatedly ignoring main quests.

2. Repeatedly sabotaging other contractors' completion of main quests.

3. Profiting from rule loopholes and seriously endangering the stability of derived worlds, having caused the innocent deaths of 289 contractors (Innocent death category: non-normal competition, combat, or deaths caused by utilizing schemes.)

4. Repeatedly contacting Void creatures and intending to leak mission information, indirectly causing one derived world to collapse permanently.

5. Ignoring three warnings and recruitment offers from Reincarnation Paradise (Recruitment content: ignore past mistakes and convert to a normal contractor).

After reading the Clown's case file, Su Xiao couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder. Sure enough, the opponent's team shouldn't be called the Gentleman Alliance, but the Death-Seeking Alliance. They had abandoned all three opportunities to become normal contractors.

Contractors who become rule-breakers are all very capable. Reincarnation Paradise perhaps didn't want these capable contractors to be hunted to death by Su Xiao, so it gave them three chances.

As the saying goes, three strikes and you're out. After three times, Reincarnation Paradise would no longer warn them but would directly send Su Xiao, the god of slaughter, to tell them in a "friendly" way that their death date had arrived.

The Clown actually died somewhat indignantly. After efforts in multiple derived worlds, he finally obtained the Demon bloodline. Su Xiao happened to be present, so the Clown prepared to test the power of the Demon bloodline using Su Xiao.

The Clown was originally half-support and half-melee. Facing Su Xiao, a full-time melee fighter, the Clown's tragedy was a matter of course.

After that, everything went wrong for the Clown. He summoned a moronic demon god, but because their temperaments were severely incompatible, that demon god didn't help the Clown at all.

A demon god full of justice, namely Brother Purgatory Earl—one could guess with their butt that the Clown must have been mentally broken at the time.

But the Clown was no ordinary person. With his limbs severed and the summoned demon god being extremely unreliable, these things couldn't stop him. He utilized the weakness of Purgatory Earl's stupidity and combined it with his own spatial ability to create a single-sided random summoning array, thereby summoning the Nilapan tribe.

After some trickery, the leader of the Nilapan tribe cooperated with the Clown and was used by him as a pawn.

None of this mattered; the Clown had lost, losing to Su Xiao twice.

Su Xiao stood on the rooftop, which could collapse at any moment, and dragged the Clown's corpse off the wheelchair. He sat down; the continuous high-intensity combat had left him exhausted.

Lighting a cigarette, Su Xiao took a deep drag and a smile appeared on his face. No matter how smart the Clown was, he had won in the end, and the Clown had become a headless corpse.

With a whoosh, a dark red flame ignited on the Clown's corpse. Su Xiao's heart tightened—could the Clown still have a backup plan? But the hunting mission was already complete; the Clown must be dead.

The Purgatory Flame burned the Clown's corpse to nothing, and a wisp of black ash was blown away by the night wind toward the distance.

Letting out a long sigh, Su Xiao shook his head. The Clown was dead, dead by his blade.
