Chapter 245: Stop him, don't let him die here
The person upstairs must be an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, who could beat Uesugi Yue to the point of feeling inferior to him. He might even be the ancient dragon in human form that the first generation of Lionheart Society members faced.
Therefore, he did not dare to take it lightly at all, and the moment he got close, he used his strongest killer weapon - Time Zero.
This is one of the most unsolvable words in the world. Almost no one can capture the release process of time zero, and the releaser is always at the center of the time zero area, which can be regarded as boundless from a certain perspective!
Ange is the world's top time zero user, and his bloodline is enough to allow him to extend time by approximately 50 times within the time zero realm.
Others would like to split one minute into two minutes, but he can use one second as if it were fifty seconds!
This was the secret of how he beat up Uesugi Yue, a top hybrid, and won the title of the world's strongest assassin.
This is also the reason why he dared to enter this dangerous place alone.
In this world, no one can pass time faster than him!
With the folding knife in his hand, Angé pushed open the door with a sign saying "Closed for Business" and rushed in.
But the moment the door opened, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind -
It seems that Lu Mingfei is dating a beautiful girl today.
Could it be that...
"Bang--!!!"
A rifle bullet with a spiral of air appeared so suddenly that it was still astonishingly fast even in the realm of time zero.
Ange's body reacted the moment the bullet entered the area.
He tilted his head slightly, and the bullet grazed his meticulously crafted white hair, blasting a hole the size of a bowl in the glass door behind him, and then the remaining force penetrated into the counter in the lobby on the first floor.
The trajectory of the flying debris was clearly visible in time zero, falling towards the unfortunate waiter who was lying on the ground, and the scene was like a slow-motion movie.
"Bang--!!!"
The gunshot came half a beat late, and Ange instantly calculated that the sniper was definitely not far away from here, and he also knew that there must be more than one attack.
On the rooftop less than fifty meters away from him, Jiude Mai pulled the trigger expressionlessly, and brass bullet casings popped out wildly, clinking on the concrete floor and dancing among the bullet casings on the ground.
As soon as Ange appeared and turned to rush towards the restaurant, the sexy female ninja had already aimed the FAMAS automatic rifle at the end of the silver-gray figure's route.
Lu Mingfei lacks experience after all, and the fight between dragons and hybrids is far more treacherous and terrifying than the war between humans. Jiude Mai has been following him in secret.
She had already noticed Uesugi Yue and wanted to warn him, but was stopped by her boss and told to wait for the situation to develop.
Only after the intruder Ange appeared did they get permission to shoot.
"Stop him. Don't let him die here."
Mai Jiude, dressed in a black combat uniform, knelt on one knee, with the butt of the modified FAMAS automatic rifle firmly resting on her shoulder.
This French-made assault rifle glowed matte black in the twilight, with fifty rounds of 5.56×45mm M193 rifle bullets ready to go in the extended magazine. As the world's greatest dragon slayer charged towards Chateau Joel Robuchon, he pulled the trigger at the empty main gate!
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang -!"
In full-automatic mode, the FAMAS automatic rifle is capable of firing 25 bullets per second. In the fifty-fold deceleration field of time zero, the flying speed of each bullet plummets!
But even though they had fired in advance, bullets still poured down the moment Angers rushed to the gate!
Ange turned around suddenly, and his folding knife drew a cold arc of light in front of him, accurately splitting the bullet that was coming straight at his face into two halves that embedded themselves into the door panels on both sides.
Then the folding knife drew a dark golden pattern under the moonlight, and actually cut down all the incoming bullets. The main entrance of the restaurant that he was protecting behind him became the only victim.
With Ange's speed, he could easily dodge it, but the waiter who was knocked unconscious and thrown away by Uesugi Yue became an invisible shackle, forcing him to stay where he was and resist!
In the realm of time zero, Angers dealt with the incoming bullets with a gloomy face, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of pedestrians running away in fear at the sudden gunshots.
An office worker drops his briefcase, and the files slowly but surely break free from their restraints, predictably scattering all over the floor.
A couple was squatting in the corner hugging each other tightly, and the convenience store clerk next to them hurriedly retracted his head and tried to take out his cell phone to call the police!
Not far away, an old man covered in blood was furious. He held broken bricks in his hands and pretended to throw them towards the place where the gunshots were heard in the distance!
Two seconds later, all the bullets were fired.
"We're done, time to call it a day~"
Jude Mai threw the FAMAS with empty bullets and smoking muzzle behind her, and took one last glance at the silent second floor of the restaurant. She stretched lazily like a female college student who had just finished a club activity, and walked slowly towards the rooftop gate.
Whoosh!
After she was three meters away, half a broken brick came through the wind and hit the place where she was just now.
Bang!
Uesugi Yue's angry attack did not bring any effect. The outlaw had already left in a cool manner, leaving only bullet shells on the ground.
If the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department traces the case based on the bullet shells left at the scene, they can only trace it back to a certain Osaka gang that was destroyed the day before yesterday, and tonight's shooting will only be regarded as a deliberate outbreak.
Just apologize, bow, and arrest a few gangsters, and the matter will be settled.
The barrage stopped, Angers grabbed the unlucky waiter and threw him aside, then he quickly rushed to the second floor, not daring to delay for a moment!
Going up to the second floor, I found that this famous restaurant looked like it had just experienced a typhoon disaster.
The expensive crystal chandelier fell to the ground, the walls were covered with spider-web-like cracks, the window glass and the solid wood tables, chairs, bar counters and wine cabinets that were imported from abroad at a high price were almost all rotten, and the red wine airlifted from France, Italy and other places spread dark red marks on the horrible solid wood floor, as if accusing the world of its misery.
Ange walked slowly forward, holding his folding knife across his body, scanning every corner vigilantly.
In the collapsed single room, a headless corpse lay quietly, with its head rolled three meters away. On its face was a bloodstained white noble mask, and the cut on its neck was frighteningly smooth, with no rough edges visible at all.
The corpse was holding two short sticks in its hands, and only half of the body was left, with the rest of the body broken into several pieces and falling to the ground.
He rushed towards the kitchen again, only to see several chefs and waiters in white uniforms lying unconscious in all directions. Lying at the top were the general manager and the manager.
Their faces were pale, but their chests were still rising and falling slightly. It seemed that they had been knocked unconscious and thrown here.
However, after searching the entire second floor, he couldn't find anyone. Finally, he saw an open window in the direction of the back door of the restaurant. The evening breeze blew in, blowing the European-style fabric curtains and diluting the bloody smell on the second floor.
He stuck his head out and looked down, only to see a blue convertible Lamborghini Aventador roaring and disappearing at the end of the long street.
There were a boy with short hair and a girl with long hair sitting in the car.
When the Lamborghini turned out of the long street, the young man in the driver's seat seemed to notice something and his eyes tilted for a moment, falling towards him.
The gazes of the old and the young collided across a space of dozens of meters, one side was solemn and astonished, the other side was completely indifferent.
The Lamborghini disappeared at the end of his sight. Angers slowly withdrew his gaze, and the folding knife in his hand loosened a little.
When they looked at each other just now, he felt a chill like a thorn in his back. It seemed that if he had not delayed for two seconds downstairs and tried to intercept the car when it started, he might really die here, this century-old old man.
The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front of them, and the waves in front of them die on the beach, but Lu Mingfei's wave is clearly a huge wave that can kill both the waves in front of him and the beach together.
It’s so horrible, so horrible!
Maintaining time at zero was also a huge drain, so he dispersed the field that slowed down time and accelerated himself, took out his cell phone and called Inuyama He.
Without waiting for the other party to speak, he briefly explained the situation here and asked him to quickly find someone to clean up the scene and not wait for the Tokyo police to arrive before making trouble. Then he hung up the phone and walked downstairs.
In the shadows of the alley behind the restaurant, Uesugi Yue leaned against the mottled brick wall, and every breath was accompanied by a stabbing pain deep in his chest.
There weren't many obvious wounds on his body, and because of his royal bloodline, most of those wounds had stopped bleeding.
Although I can't recover as quickly as I did when I was young, I don't have to worry about dying from excessive blood loss.
Just now he wanted to catch up with Angers, but he heard the roar of a sports car engine coming from the back street of the restaurant. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't even catch up with the exhaust gas of the car.
Ange pushed open the back door of the restaurant. His silver-gray suit reflected the light from the street lamps and neon signs, forming a sharp contrast with Uesugi Yue's disheveled appearance.
He held an unopened bottle of water in his hand and handed it to Uesugi Yue. He had many questions in his mind, but when he saw the extremely lonely look in her eyes, all he could say was just one sentence:
"Have a drink of water."
Upon hearing this, Uesugi Yue looked down at his still shaking hands.
These hands that were once able to easily break steel were now unable to even perform a simple grasping motion.
During the punches with Lu Mingfei, the bones in his left fist were nearly broken. If he had not activated the dragon bone state in advance, not to mention his fist, perhaps his entire arm would have been broken.
The muscles on his right forearm had been deformed, leaving a dark, sunken handprint. At that time, he almost thought that his arm bones were going to be crushed by Lu Mingfei.
Seeing this, Ange unscrewed the bottle cap and handed the bottle to Uesugi Yue: "The people from the Snake Eight Clan will be here soon."
Uesugi Yue slowly raised his head; the broken mask had long been taken off, revealing his weather-beaten face.
The golden pupils had gone out, and the once arrogant look had been replaced by a deeper emotion - an almost desperate pleading that Ange had never seen in the eyes of this old friend.
"Ange..." Uesugi Yue's voice was hoarse. He took the water bottle but did not drink it. He just held the bottle tightly. The clear water and his turbid heart were surging together:
"My daughter..."
He didn't finish his words. When he heard the roar of Lamborghini just now, he knew that things were not good, but he still held on to an almost extravagant hope in his heart.
Ange shook his head slightly and said nothing, but it seemed as if he had said everything.
Uesugi Yue's body trembled violently, the plastic bottle was completely deformed in his hands, and he leaned weakly against the wall, his expression as painful as when he received the testimony sent by Angers.
Ange looked at him, sighed silently in his heart, patted his shoulder and comforted him:
"Things may not be what you think. I know the boy your daughter is with. He is my junior, and he is a very outstanding and remarkable child."
Hearing this, Uesugi Yue raised his head suddenly, like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw: "Really?"
Listening to the sirens coming from afar and the curious looks from passers-by nearby, he nodded with high spirits:
"Let's go first. This is not a good place to chat."
Having said that, he walked away, and Uesugi Yue followed without hesitation.
In the alley across the street, a baby-faced young man wearing a baseball cap watched all this quietly.
After the two old men left, he pressed down the brim of his hat and blended quietly into the crowd.
