Chapter 48: Eating Black (Seeking Follow-up Reading)



As they moved away from the small town, the surroundings became more and more desolate. Looking at the black fog rising at the edge of their vision and the distorted world in the distance... Qin Jinnian was still somewhat uncomfortable with it.

What exactly are the so-called 'fragments of the dark world'?

He thought.

The five masters and apprentices in front had been following the lone traveler from a distance. They were obviously very experienced in this and did not gather together, but moved forward in a scattered manner. Moreover, because they were wearing a set of black, in this somewhat desolate world, if you did not observe carefully, it was actually difficult to find them.

Of course, they also did not notice Qin Jinnian who was following them about a hundred meters behind... Although they were vigilant enough, someone kept looking back from time to time during the tracking process.

But darkness became Qin Jinnian's best obstacle to avoid... Who let his superpower be shadow control? As long as he cast a dark shadow over his body, let alone a hundred meters... Ten meters or twenty meters, it would be difficult to see his figure without careful observation. Although it was not completely invisible, it was still useful.

After walking for about half an hour, there were no other people around. Qin Jinnian saw that the man wearing the faceless mask put down a bag from his shoulder and squatted on the ground, doing something unknown.

After looking at him in confusion for a while, he found that there was suddenly a long thing in his hand...

Then I realized...

This guy is assembling a gun.

Are we going to take action?

Qin Jinnian's eyes narrowed as he saw that the scattered people had all taken out their weapons...

Almost all guns.

In fact, at the low-level super-weapon stage, firearms are more popular than cold weapons.

After all, range is truth.

Ten steps away, the gun is fast.

Within ten steps, the gun was accurate and fast...

That's the truth.

But once one's cultivation reaches a certain level, thermal weapons will gradually be eliminated... There is no other reason. As one's cultivation becomes deeper, the strength of the human body also becomes stronger. In the future, not to mention guns, even artillery shells will not have much lethality to super warriors.

And against the weirdness, firearms seem to be somewhat powerless...

Some of the strange bodies are strong enough to ignore guns. Some of them simply have no entity...then there is no need to be afraid.

Of course, this refers to ordinary firearms and ordinary people.

Bullets made of special materials... or superpowers with the ability to give bullets energy... are not included.

At this moment, the 'five masters and apprentices' all took out their weapons, and the one wearing the faceless mask was already squatting on the spot, with his gun ready.

Qin Jinnian's eyes flashed, and then he quietly moved forward, approaching behind the five people...

At a certain moment...

Boom!!! With a roar, flames burst out from the gun in the faceless man's hand.

The lone black-faced man about three hundred meters away suddenly had his head exploded with a bang, spurting out a lot of blood. He fell to the ground without even a chance to groan.

“I succeeded!”

The faceless man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to have no psychological burden at all about taking a stranger's life with a single shot.

This made Qin Jinnian, who had just approached about fifty meters behind them, stunned, and then he looked at the black-masked man in the distance.

He was silent for a moment, then quickened his pace a little.

"I didn't expect it to be so easy... Let's go, get the stuff and leave quickly..."

The faceless man whispered with some excitement.

The other four were also very excited. They all nodded, then stood up and planned to quickly go over to get the "goods" and run away... They had done this many times and knew that delay would lead to unexpected events.

Just about to move.

The faceless man quickly put away his gun, without dismantling it, and went to get the "goods".

But at this moment...

"ah!!"

But the scream only lasted for a moment and then stopped abruptly, and then there was a sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

The faceless man was stunned for only a moment, and then the hairs on his back suddenly stood up.

This was not the first or second time that he had used guns in the black market, so he knew exactly what he and his men were up against.

Damn, they are actually robbing each other?! He was shocked, but he did not turn back immediately. Instead, he rushed forward and shouted, "Enemy..."

The word "袭" has not yet come out.

He heard three shrill screams in succession, but the screams stopped abruptly as soon as they started.

He turned his head in shock, and then saw an incredible scene...

Behind him, his four accomplices had all lost their heads.

A dark mass of unknown objects turned into tentacles, wrapped around his four accomplices. The tip of the tentacles was a spike, piercing their chests. However, there was a second black tentacle, which was a sharp blade, dancing around them...

He almost instantly imagined the scene just now...

A dark thing came out of the darkness without warning, and instantly wrapped around and pierced the chests of his four accomplices one after another. Then, when they screamed subconsciously, the second dark tentacle turned into a sharp blade and mercilessly chopped off their heads...

Looking at the four blood-spurting mouths, the face of the faceless man under the mask had turned completely pale...

Not frightened by the horrific scene before my eyes.

It was because he realized who had attacked them.

"Super, superpower..."

He was trembling all over, and the excitement he had just felt turned into a bone-chilling coldness at this moment.

What made him feel even colder was that he finally realized that... there was also a cold black thing on his body, wrapped around... his legs, hands, torso, and even his head...

And he didn't even know when these things appeared!

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!..."

He threw away the gun in his hand almost instantly, raised his hands high, and shouted: "I don't want the goods, I have money, I buy my life!"

A hint of coldness appeared on his neck. His whole body froze and he tilted his head slightly. Then, the fear in his eyes seemed to overflow...

Because at some point, a sharp black blade had appeared at his neck...

It is very likely that if he had not immediately expressed his willingness to buy his life, his head would have been rolling happily on the ground like his companions...

The air seemed to be stagnant, and the faceless man was trembling all over. He felt that his legs were no longer his own...

He had experienced life-and-death battles before, but this was his first time to see a scene like today! Even now, he hadn't seen where the enemy was! Time seemed to pass extremely slowly at this moment, one second felt like a century. Just when the faceless man was soaked in sweat, something finally happened in the field...

The dark thing that was wrapped around the bodies of several people slowly shrank back into the darkness, looking like a living thing.

But the faceless man didn't feel at ease at all... because the dark thing on his body was still there.

"How much are you going to pay for your life?"

A cold voice appeared, but the faceless man still didn't see where the other person was.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he knew that he had met a big boss whom he could not afford to offend.

I'm afraid they are all extremely powerful among the super-powered people!

He made the judgment in his heart, but his words were extremely decisive. He did not look around to find the person who was talking. He looked straight ahead and shouted, "Ten million! I will use ten million to buy my life!"

Ten million, his heart was bleeding.

But after realizing that the other party was a super-powerful boss, he knew that he couldn't save this money...

Would a super-powered person care about just a few million?

The scene suddenly became quiet, and the faceless man's heart was trembling, like a prisoner waiting for sentencing...
