Chapter 81 Into the Shadows
Clement, a Sequence 7 "Nightmare" of the "Sleepless Ones" and captain of the Nighthawks of Port Enmat, possessed impressive melee combat abilities. However, the approaching shadows and arms reaching out from extremely close range left him no time to parry, forcing him to retreat rapidly.
Seeing that the slender fingers with blood on the tips were about to grab Clement's neck, Angel raised his revolver, aimed quickly and fired, and a demon-hunting bullet hit Mr. C's arm.
There was a dull thud as a bullet hit flesh, leaving a two-finger-wide penetrating wound on Mr. C's right forearm. Blood and flesh spurted out from the wound on the other side, but most of it seemed to be stuck to each other and hung on his arm instead of falling to the ground.
Taking advantage of the obstruction of this attack, Clement took two steps back, left the range of the shadow, pulled the trigger repeatedly, and fired all the bullets in the gun in one breath.
Two of the bullets hit the shadow floating in the air without causing any impact on it. The remaining bullets passed directly through the shadow and no one knew where they went.
Mr. C then walked out of the shadows. He was still wearing the black robe. The wound on his shoulder that Clement had just attacked had stopped bleeding and no longer hindered his movement.
With this terrifying recovery ability, normal attacks don't seem to have much effect on him...
Angel frowned and observed the opponent's injuries, but did not immediately shoot to continue the attack.
“Gurgle…Gurgle…”
A strange wriggling sound was heard, and the flesh and blood on Mr. C's injured arm squirmed, quickly filling the missing part. The flesh and blood that was stuck to the wound seemed to have its own life, crawling and jumping into the wound. In the blink of an eye, the injury was almost healed.
Now the two of them finally knew how his shoulder wound healed.
"Normal attacks are ineffective, try hitting the head!"
Clement shouted, threw away the gun that had run out of bullets, clenched his fists, kicked his feet, and closed the distance between him and Mr. C.
The tall "Nightmare" with phantom phosphorescent powder on his body looked like a glowing warrior. Relying on his size and strength, he punched Mr. C in the face with a straight punch.
The extraordinary people of the "Sleepless" path are not even inferior to the "Assassins" in close combat ability!
While Clement was holding the opponent back, Angel put away his useless small-caliber pistol and took out the "Thirst for Blood". He spun the "Phantom Phosphorus Eruption" that he had intended to use to surprise the opponent in a sneak attack to the last position, and then raised his gun, looking for an opportunity to attack Mr. C between Clement's flying fists and feet.
After emerging from the shadows, this extraordinary being didn't seem to be good at close combat. He struggled to resist Clement's punches and kicks, and slowly retreated. The wound on his arm, which had almost healed, sprayed a lot of blood under the heavy blow, dripping onto the ground between the two of them.
Could it be that Mr. C is a melee rookie?
Angel frowned and looked at the two men. It was not until Clement kicked Mr. C sideways several meters away that he found an opportunity to attack and raised his gun to aim.
At this moment, her eyes that could see through the darkness noticed a strange smile on Mr. C's handsome face.
"careful!"
Angel's thoughts moved him, and without even bothering to shoot, he turned and shouted to Clement.
"boom--"
A violent explosion sounded beside her ears. The ground under Clement's feet seemed to have turned into an explosive, and Clement, who was standing on it, was blown into a bloody mist. Bricks, flesh and blood flew out, and the impact of the explosion rushed towards her head.
It was Mr. C's dripping blood, and he used the flesh and blood as a bomb and detonated it!
Angel didn't dare to imagine what became of Clement standing in the pile of bombs. He could only take a deep breath, pull the trigger, and send the enhanced bullet fired by "Thirsty Blood" into the body of the grinning Mr. C, making two horrific wounds on his abdomen and legs that sprayed with sticky blood.
"Haha, it's useless. God's blessing allows me to..."
Mr. C, who successfully killed a Night Watchman, didn't even laugh twice. Large amounts of black flames gushed out from his abdomen and thighs where he was shot. The black flames not only chased the spurting blood, burning it up and leaving only a trace of ash, but also gradually spread along his body, as if they were going to completely devour Mr. C.
Angel was extremely surprised. She had not expected that the "Blood Thirst" attack with black flames would be so effective against this extraordinary person whose recovery ability exceeded expectations. Seeing the black flames continuously burning the opposite side, she quickly raised her gun and continued to aim.
Mr. C roared, endured the burning pain, swung his injured arm, and sprinkled a handful of blood in a fan shape. Then, before the blood had even hit the ground, he directly detonated it in the air.
The blast raged, the sound waves echoed, and in the chaos, Angel's hasty shot missed. He watched helplessly as a shadow emerged under Mr. C's feet, and the whole person fell down as if falling into the void and disappeared into the shadow.
"Bang--" Angel poured his spirituality into "Thirsty Blood" and fired a demon-hunting bullet with black flames, which directly hit the center of the shadow. However, this shadow was extremely flexible. At the moment of being hit, the shadow of the hit part scattered directly, leaving a hollow area. The bullet hit the floor, leaving a fist-sized hole, and the black flames went out with a "puff".
The shadow shook twice mockingly, and then, enveloped in the remaining phantom phosphorescent powder, rushed towards Angel at an extremely fast speed.
Oh, right, the Phosphorescent Powder... The "Phoenix Phosphorus Eruption" enhanced by the Black Flame should be able to cause damage to shadows...
"Thirsty Blood" was originally equipped with a "Phantom Phosphorus Eruption" and four demon hunting bullets. In the previous battle, Angel turned the "Phantom Phosphorus Eruption" to the last position. Now, as long as he fired another shot, it would be that special bullet!
Shadow needs to dodge Black Flame's bullets, which proves that he is indeed afraid of Black Flame's harm.
She pretended to be nervous and retreated in panic. The shadow followed her, approaching her at a much faster speed than her, and its area expanded rapidly, threatening to surround her.
The only chance is this shot!
Angel clenched her "Thirst for Blood" and followed the shadow rushing towards her with her eyes.
"No sneaking into the shadows here!"
A low, calm voice came from behind her, and Clement walked out of the darkness wearing a tattered windbreaker. Half of his body was covered in blood, and the other half was covered in mud and sand. His face was sallow, and there was a gash on his forehead. Blood was flowing out of it and flowing down half of his cheek.
But his left hand, which bore the inscription "2-031", was extremely steady, as if he had just snapped his fingers.
An invisible wave emanated from his hand, sweeping across Angel's body and spreading to the entire underground area.
The shadow approaching rapidly in front seemed to be grabbed from the ground by a giant transparent hand, floating in the air, struggling and twisting a few times, and quickly formed a human shape, turning into Mr. C in a black robe.
The black flames on his body had been extinguished as he moved in and out of the shadows. Now several wounds were exposed from the torn parts of his black robe, and flesh and blood were slowly wriggling, filling the gaps.
Suddenly being grabbed out of the shadows, Mr. C's usually calm expression couldn't help but show a hint of panic. Before his body hit the ground, he let out a roar, stirring up the blood and flesh that did not belong to him on the ground, as if trying to gather them together.
As long as we gather all this flesh and blood together...
As soon as Mr. C had this thought, he saw a ball of golden flames mixed with purple and black flames explode in front of him, and then severe pain and burning sensation spread throughout his body.
