Chapter 55: Showing Up
Liu Yue ran onto the corridor, with no time at all to observe the surrounding environment, hastily picking a direction to continue fleeing for her life.
After realizing she couldn’t resolve the monster according to the original plan, her first thought was to find a way to survive from the monster’s clutches, not even having time to care about Xiao Xueyin’s side.
And precisely because of this, in her panicked flight, she didn’t even notice the large mass of distorted air not far away.
The “Green Giant” quickly followed out, but the [Immortal Leap] effect had already automatically deactivated due to the distance influence.
Without that special attraction, his motivation to chase and kill Liu Yue wouldn’t be that strong.
Compared to Liu Yue who was already almost at the other end of the corridor, the current “Green Giant” was instead more curious about this strange thing beside him.
Ten Blades’ group completely didn’t dare to continue moving; they all held their breath, staring intently at the monster not far away.
Bang~ Bang~
The “Green Giant” strode closer, each step on the ground emanating a sense of power.
Seeing this scene, someone in the invisibility cloak couldn’t help but say in a low voice.
“Fei… Fei Bro? This doesn’t seem right.”
Not sure if it was too tense, or he forgot that the invisibility cloak wouldn’t cover sounds.
As soon as the words were spoken, the “Green Giant” immediately roared violently and swiped his claw toward the mass of air where Ten Blades was located.
Rip!
A piercing sound rang out, like some kind of leather being torn.
Fortunately, before the monster truly struck, the death fighters scattered from the invisibility cloak.
Although it seemed a bit chaotic, there were no casualties.
Liu Yue heard the movement and instinctively glanced back.
When she saw so many death fighters suddenly appearing, she was immediately dumbfounded.
So many people ambushing in the corridor, what did they want to do?
She instinctively suspected it was a trap.
But on second thought, it didn’t seem right.
Mainly, it wasn’t necessary; the Survivor Alliance’s death fighters themselves had no advantage.
“Probably an accident; they look like they wanted to wait until the final moment to appear.” A mild voice sounded in Liu Yue’s ear.
Liu Yue was startled by this sudden voice, immediately turning her head to find the source.
“Brother Lu? Damn, you scared me.”
She patted her chest with lingering fear and hurriedly asked: “What the hell is this thing you’re carrying? And where did you run off to before?”
Lu Bai set down Ren Baoshun in his hand like bringing local specialties to visit relatives, chuckling as he said.
“This is a Survey Corps death fighter.”
As for where he had gone before?
He had originally only planned to settle scores with A Gu, but ended up getting a USB drive and taking out a bunch of death fighters along the way; explaining it would sound like boasting, so Lu Bai simply didn’t mention it.
Liu Yue didn’t know the specific situation, but since Lu Bai didn’t explain, she naturally knew better than to press.
“This guy is still alive?” She poked Ren Baoshun with her finger.
“Yes.”
Lu Bai turned to look toward the monster’s position and added: “Now probably isn’t a good time for catching up.”
The corridor was now in chaos; just in the time he and Liu Yue exchanged a couple sentences, several more holes had appeared in the walls on both sides of the corridor.
The “Green Giant” was still in an unstoppable state.
Whether power, speed, or even defense ability, all could be considered overpowered.
Ten Blades’ death fighters fought collaboratively, relying on team power to barely hold on.
The attacks the death fighters occasionally launched on the monster had minimal effect.
If this continued, casualties were inevitable.
Boom!
The monster smashed a large pit into the ground with one fist.
Fei Xiao narrowly dodged from under the sandbag-sized fist, but his face showed no joy of successfully escaping.
Just as Lu Bai said, their exposure was an accident.
In their plan, they should wait until the battle was nearing its end before appearing to wipe out the remaining death fighters in one go.
However, not only did they not wait for that decisive moment, they got entangled by this troublesome monster.
The situation was dire.
Fei Xiao observed with the corner of his eye; he could clearly feel that the intensity of the battle in the Staff Department office hall had dropped significantly.
Without any communication, both sides in the battle tacitly chose to hold back.
Although it had indeed started as a life-or-death fierce fight.
But just observing the surrounding corpses would reveal that basically all the dead were soldiers; not many death fighters had been taken out.
Even though many death fighters were injured, in terms of total numbers, they still had the advantage over Ten Blades.
For death fighters, there are no eternal enemies.
Fei Xiao had no doubt that if someone took the lead, these death fighters would definitely unite to take out their suddenly appearing fresh troops first.
Er Bao’s round face showed a grave expression, appearing somewhat comical.
“Boss, what do we do?”
Fei Xiao tentatively blocked another fist from the monster; the terrifying power sent his whole body flying backward.
He got up again, rubbing his numb elbow; through a breach in the wall on one side, he could observe the scene inside the office hall.
While they were dealing with the “Green Giant,” the battle in the office hall had quietly and completely stopped.
Realizing these guys were all watching, Fei Xiao gritted his teeth: “Lure this guy over there.”
To be frank, they weren’t without a way to deal with this “Green Giant.”
But Fei Xiao had come with the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind plan; naturally he couldn’t accept becoming the mantis instead.
Hearing Fei Xiao’s words, Er Bao decisively shouted to draw the monster’s attention.
Soon, his arms gradually softened into a rubber-like texture.
He assumed a horse stance, roared, and swung his arms.
His arms punched the monster like machine guns, fists so fast they left afterimages.
Er Bao retreated while punching, entering the office hall.
The damage was just so-so, but it was enough to enrage the monster.
Anyway, to Er Bao, the death fighters in the office hall were all enemies; he didn’t need to distinguish, just lead it to the crowded area.
“What are you trying to do?”
“Don’t lead it this way, get lost!”
“Fei Xiao, you’re courting death.”
“Watch out!”
Er Bao’s intent was too obvious; it was clear what scheme he was up to, so the watching death fighters couldn’t help cursing loudly while scattering in all directions.
The death fighter playing with playing cards was ruthless and didn’t talk much; without a word, he threw a playing card gleaming with sheen at Er Bao.
Snap!
Before the playing card hit Er Bao, it was shattered by a fast-passing object.
Fei Xiao on the corridor smacked his lips and disdainfully spat.
