Chapter 91: Ambition of Fire

On the roof, the One-Eyed Owl, which was the manager, was confronting Shinohara Yukinori and the others. The manager's goal was not to fight but to buy time.

"It seems you have made a name for yourself now. Perhaps I should have taken your dominant hand a few years ago, just like your superior, Special Class Investigator Shinohara."

The manager was currently in the Kakuja form, wrapped in armor formed by kagune, his back full of thorn-like kagune. That was Ukaku, possessing long-range attack capabilities.

The manager's current state integrated attack and defense, and his recovery ability was very strong.

"A-Pan."

Shinohara Yukinori called out the nickname of Kuroiwa Iwa beside him.

Kuroiwa Iwa nodded. The two had been partners for several years and basically understood what the other was thinking.

"Hirako, stay."

Shinohara Yukinori began to arrange personnel to fight the manager.

"Yes."

Hirako Take had a passerby-like appearance, but his strength was unquestionable. Although he was a First-Class Investigator, he had strength not inferior to an Associate Special Class.

"The rest of you, go annihilate the other members of Aogiri Tree."

That was what he said, but in fact, Shinohara Yukinori was tactfully sending the others away. Those people didn't even have the qualifications to die; they would only hinder the battle.

"Amon, you go too."

Shinohara looked sideways at Amon Koutarou. In Shinohara's view, Amon was a good talent, just too immature and lacking rich combat experience.

Unexpectedly, Amon stood in place without moving.

"Amon."

Shinohara's tone became heavier.

"I also want to fight with you all."

"This is the commander's order. Obey obediently!"

Shinohara's tone began to become serious.

"I also want to stay. Please let me fight with everyone."

Amon Koutarou, this hot-blooded young man, clearly wasn't afraid of death; there was even a hint of pleading in his tone.

"You are an 'excellent talent who would be troublesome if dead'. Get out!"

Shinohara's meaning was actually that you are dragging us down, get out quickly.

Amon, that naive youth, clearly didn't understand and stubbornly stood his ground.

"I..."

"Don't drag us down during the battle."

The situation was critical; Shinohara didn't have time to worry about Amon anymore.

"Hirako, I'm truly sorry."

Shinohara's words were full of apology. He left Hirako Take behind, so Hirako Take might die in this battle.

"I am clear about my own strength. This is what I should do."

Shinohara nodded and looked at Kuroiwa Iwa on the side. The two pressed the switch on the back of their necks simultaneously.

"Click, click, click~."

'Arata' climbed onto their upper bodies, forming a suit of blue-black armor, which flashed with a faint blue light in the night.

"Let's go!"

Shinohara roared angrily and rushed toward the manager together with Kuroiwa Iwa.

On the roof of a tall building in the distance, a group of contractors stood or sat, watching this scene through the telescopes in their hands.

"How is it? Are the main missions almost done?"

The white-haired old man, Master Master Han Yu, put down his telescope and stood in front of the crowd with a smile.

"Lord Master Master Han Yu, our main missions have already been completed."

"Hmm, very good. Xiluoluo, how many people are you still missing?"

Cold Fish looked at the little girl Xiluoluo.

"Two people. Can we..."

Master Master Han Yu raised his hand to interrupt Xiluoluo's words.

"Talk about it later. Now the CCG has the upper hand. We have already gained quite a few benefits in this battle. It's time to retreat. One cannot be 'insatiable'."

Xiluoluo revealed a look of unwillingness, but in the end, she didn't dare to say anything. She was a worker; her combat power was touching.

Master Master Han Yu and the other contractors left the roof one after another, but one contractor was an exception, and that was Fire Burst, who was in an alliance with Master Master Han Yu.

Fire Burst sat on the edge of the roof, holding a timer in his hand, which showed 144 hours and 3 minutes, which was six days.

The time on the timer was a countdown; the entire timer was a diamond-shaped metal block, looking very precise and giving people a sci-fi feel.

"Six days, huh. The preparation time for the interference transmitter is too long."

Fire Burst looked at the manager in the distance and sneered.

As long as the time was up and the interference was successful, his strength would be greatly improved.

"Whether my path is a dead end or a path to the throne, it depends on this experiment."

Fire Burst gripped the staff in his hand until it creaked, and something called ambition was rising in his eyes.

Fire Burst was a very scheming person. Acting impulsive in front of Master Master Han Yu was just a disguise.

One hand brushed over his fiery red short hair, and Fire Burst didn't know why he chuckled.

"CCG faction's perverted brother, I really hope to meet you after the interference is successful. I've heard that you repelled Takatsuki Sen head-on."

Fire Burst let out a hearty laugh, and fighting intent rose in his eyes.

Although Fire Burst was a fire-type mage, his body under the mage robe was definitely not weak; instead, it was full of a sense of power.

In the lower level of the Aogiri Tree stronghold, Su Xiao was rushing toward the top floor in rapid steps.

It had to be said that the Aogiri Tree stronghold was well-chosen; the internal structure was intricate, and to reach the roof, one needed to change stairs several times.

As for things like elevators, because they had been in disrepair for a long time, no one dared to take them, and whether they were powered was a question.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

Su Xiao held the sharp blade, running on the iron stairs.

"Bang."

A crashing sound came from above; someone was fighting on the stairs, but Su Xiao's pace didn't stop.

Arriving at the scene of the battle, Su Xiao saw that it was Noro fighting against Yomo Renji, Uta, and Tsukiyama Shuu.

To be precise, Noro was standing in place taking a beating, with no intention of fighting back at all.

Yomo Renji ran quickly in front of Noro and kicked Noro's upper body flying with a back kick.

Noro's body seemed to have turned into liquid. After being kicked into two halves, the upper body flew out a distance in the air and then shot rapidly toward the main body.

Three seconds later, Noro's injuries recovered. This perverted recovery ability reminded Su Xiao of Nico, whom he had fought earlier.

Compared to Noro, Nico's recovery speed was slower, but he was more durable and wouldn't have his upper body kicked flying with one kick.

Su Xiao stopped his pace. After he arrived, everyone present stopped fighting.

"A very tricky guy has come."

The three of Yomo Renji quickly put on hoods to cover their faces.

"Beep beep beep~."

A hurried sound came from Noro's arms. Noro took out an object resembling a mobile phone, pressed it, and the sound stopped.

"Don't block the road."

Su Xiao tapped the metal railing of the stairs with the back of Zhan Long Shan, emitting a crisp 'clanging' sound.

The three of Yomo Renji retreated, and Noro also retreated after hesitating for a while.

Su Xiao walked up the stairs step by step, stepping on the iron stair treads and emitting a 'thudding' sound.

None of the ghouls present stopped Su Xiao, just watching him vigilantly.

Su Xiao didn't have time to deal with these ghouls; he needed to go to the roof to support

Shinohara Yukinori and the others.

With the faction mission on his body, after obtaining those 10,000 CCG contribution points, he would be able to be promoted to Associate Special Class Investigator and exchange for that bottle of blue-quality potion.

If Shinohara Yukinori and the others kicked the bucket, and he was judged to have failed the mission, there might not be such a good opportunity to earn contribution points later.

With an increase of 4 points in Constitution and 2 points in Strength, Su Xiao's combat power and survival ability would increase by a large margin, especially survival ability.

Su Xiao clearly remembered that when he fought the three girls including Kuroiwa, Kuroiwa's shot almost took his life.

If it weren't for the Queen happening to be standing in a line with him, she would also have been pierced by the bullet. Plus, Ye Zi didn't have much mana left and couldn't continue to heal the Queen.

Otherwise, after a burst of shots from Kuroiwa, he would already be a corpse now.

Therefore, he was determined to obtain that potion that increased Constitution. Survival ability was very important. If his life was lost, then everything was just empty talk. ===== CHAPTER 92 =====
