Chapter 191 Identity Exposed
This order was extremely ruthless and effective.
The two superhumans who were called out immediately left the battle and stood back to back. One sensed the subtle vibrations in the ground, and the other sensed the air movement, searching with all their might for any trace of Josie's disappearance.
The remaining enemies, as expected, ignored any potential sneak attacks and unleashed a barrage of attacks on Lu Yuyang, Fatty, and the others.
The pressure on the other side decreased sharply, while the pressure on Lu Yuyang and his group increased sharply.
The enemy still outnumbered the enemy and abandoned their defense, making their attacks incredibly frantic and focused.
"Ugh!"
With a muffled groan, the fat man couldn't dodge in time and was instantly pierced through the left arm by a sharp earth spike that pierced out of the ground!
Blood gushed out, his massive body swayed, and his face turned deathly pale.
"Fatty!" Lu Yuyang's eyes widened in fury. He suddenly pushed aside the two people who were attacking the fat man and shielded him behind him.
The tide of battle turned in an instant!
Josie stood hidden to the side, extremely anxious.
With the enemy on guard, two superhumans were specifically assigned to keep watch on her, making it difficult for her to find a perfect opportunity to launch a sneak attack like before.
On the main battlefield, Lu Yuyang and his team faced a rapidly deteriorating situation due to their numerical disadvantage and the fact that Fatty was injured!
She has to do something!
Her sharp gaze swept across the battlefield, finally settling on the middle-aged man who was constantly issuing orders and was clearly the core figure!
Once Josie locked onto the leading fourth-tier middle-aged man, she didn't hesitate at all.
She rolled inconspicuously under everyone's feet, shrinking to the size of a fingertip, and silently and rapidly approached the other party.
However, the perception of a fourth-tier ability user far surpasses that of a third-tier user.
Just as Josie was about to launch a surprise attack, the middle-aged man seemed to sense the barely perceptible energy fluctuations and killing intent in the air. He suddenly spun to the side, his arm wrapped in violent earth energy, and slashed backward fiercely!
"Bang!"
Josie's dagger collided violently with the rock arm armor that the opponent had hastily conjured, producing a dull thud.
The immense force rebounded, leaving Josie's hand numb; her sneak attack had failed!
Having missed its target, Josie didn't linger. Using the recoil, she transformed and disappeared again, darting around in another direction like a ghost, continuing to look for an opportunity.
Her constant harassment and deadly threats successfully restrained the strongest fourth-tier ability user, preventing him from fully commanding and participating in the siege of Lu Yuyang and the others.
But after several attempts, the middle-aged man gradually figured out some of her patterns of behavior.
When Josie reappeared from his blind spot, the dagger aimed straight at his heart, the man seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and suddenly reached out his hand at an extremely tricky and bizarre angle!
Fast! Accurate! Ruthless!
That large hand, like an iron clamp, gripped Josie's slender neck with perfect precision!
"Gotcha, you little mouse!" The middle-aged man's face revealed a ferocious and triumphant smile, his five fingers suddenly tightening, the powerful force almost crushing her throat!
The feeling of suffocation came instantly!
However, a hint of sneer flashed in Josie's eyes.
Just as the other party thought he had completely taken control of the situation, the sensation in his palm suddenly changed.
That warm neck instantly vanished under his palm.
Damn it!
She got away again!
Josie transformed into an inconspicuous grain of sand, slipping through his slightly loosened fingers in astonishment, and vanished without a trace once more!
"Damn it!" The middle-aged man was furious, but he could no longer detect any trace of Josie.
The battle between the two sides has temporarily reached a stalemate due to Josie's interference and the opponent's wariness.
However, Lu Yuyang, Fatty, and the others were outnumbered. Fatty had a serious arm injury that made it difficult for him to move, and the others were also injured. They gradually fell into a disadvantageous position and were about to be completely suppressed.
At this critical moment.
A thick, inky, cold, and deathly black mist spread out from the edge of the battlefield without warning, like a living, dark tide, moving at an astonishing speed!
"Well!"
"ah!"
Several short gasps and gasps of breath rang out!
On the opposing side, three or four relatively weaker ability users had their necks instantly bound tightly by the eerie black mist, their feet lifted off the ground and forcibly raised.
They struggled frantically, their faces turning bluish-purple, but they could not break free from the restraints that seemed to come from hell!
Shen Han's figure appeared silently on the outskirts of the battle, like the Grim Reaper, his eyes beneath the mask icy cold.
He manipulated the black mist, his voice low but chilling, pointing directly at the middle-aged man: "Tell your men to stop. Otherwise, I'll snap their necks right now!"
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically; he had never expected that the other party had such a strange and powerful accomplice hiding nearby.
Seeing that nearly a third of his men had their lives in the hands of the enemy in an instant, and fearing the consequences, he had no choice but to grit his teeth, raise his hand, and shout sternly, "Stop! Cease!"
The offensive abruptly ceased.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lu Yuyang grabbed Qiao Xi, who had just appeared and was looking somewhat pale, and quickly withdrew from the battle to reunite with Shen Han.
"Take Xixi and go first!" Shen Han said quickly to Lu Yuyang, his eyes still fixed on the enemy opposite him.
Just then, someone in the crowd recognized Shen Han's signature, terrifying black mist ability. Their expression changed drastically, and they quietly turned around and ran quickly towards the depths of the black market to report the news.
Lu Yuyang and Qiao Xi protected the injured fat man and others, and took the hostages controlled by the black mist hostages, slowly retreating out of the town.
Just as they were about to leave the edge of the town, a sharp, venomous voice suddenly came from behind the crowd, like the flick of a viper's tongue:
"That's them! Stop them! They have a power catalyst! Don't let them get away!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Poison Scorpion leading a few defeated soldiers, pointing at Qiao Xi and Shen Han, shouting at the top of his lungs!
He was indeed initially manipulated by Qiao Xi and Shen Han, who were hoping to obtain the sales rights for the catalyst, but he ended up being completely played.
For an entire winter, Josie and the others never appeared again, and he became the target of everyone's anger. He was pressured and suppressed by various forces, his subordinates either died or ran away, and some forces even threatened to kill him to vent their anger after finding the couple!
His only recourse now is to bring them out of the mess and atone for his sins!
This shout was like a drop of cold water into a boiling oil pan, instantly igniting the entire black market!
"catalyst?"
"Stop them!"
Those from various factions who were initially observing the situation immediately stopped observing.
They came here to obtain the Catalyst for Superpowers.
That's something that could drive any power mad!
Countless greedy and fierce gazes instantly focused on Josie and her group, and the superhumans surged towards them like a mad tide!
The situation is completely out of control!
Shen Han made a quick decision and shouted to Lu Yuyang, "Lu Yuyang, take Xixi to your safe zone! I'll hold them off first, then I'll come and meet up with you!"
