Chapter 501: Chapter 0501: Attack (Seeking Subscriptions)
“It’s over… Your arrogance ends here!”
Zi snorted coldly, aware that a sniper from the Cybernet division had made a move.
“Is it… finally over?”
Cheng Feng struggled to his feet, spitting blood. He looked around at the half of the conference hall that had been turned into ruins, at the casualties, screams, calls for medics, and members and trainers filming with their phones. He felt like throwing up again.
Would insurance cover this loss?
“Well done, move in, manage the crowd’s emotions, notify the public relations department to get ready…”
Zi spoke into her Bluetooth earpiece when she suddenly froze.
In front of her, a bloody figure wobbled to their feet. It was Parcy!
On his injured neck, where a chunk had been blown off by an explosion, a grotesque swelling was manifesting into features.
“What… a monster!”
Wang Chaoqun exclaimed.
This extraordinary vitality was not something a Professional should possess.
The only similar cases they’d handled were mutated Beasts that were once Professionals, victims of the initial sampling of the Curse.
“A monster? No… It’s just a new form of life. The moment we became ‘Transcendents’, we were no longer ordinary.”
Parcy stepped forward without a scratch on him.
The damage from the gunshot he took to the head earlier had completely disappeared. Moreover, he had gained some ‘additives’.
Gashes on his face opened up, forming rows of toothy maws.
Eyes sprouted on his arms, eerily taking in their surroundings.
“A true curse beast, what’s going on?”
Blood-soaked Wang Chaoqun stepped in front of Zi.
“You don’t understand! None of you do!”
“You’re clueless!”
“You don’t understand the beauty of embracing the mysterious!”
Mouths on Parcy’s face all spoke at once, some revealing forked tongues akin to snakes.
“Seeing you in this state, I think the path of conservatism that the Cybernet division has advocated for us is not wrong,” Zi retorted, then gave a commanding yell, “Attack!”
Boom!
The sniper in the distance took the first shot.
After the dull gunshot rang out, another followed immediately.
Parcy’s head and heart were simultaneously punctured by large holes, yet he stood tall and did not fall.
“Open fire!”
Rat-tat-tat! Rat-tat-tat!
Members of the Cybernet division who burst in brandished submachine guns and fired.
The storm of blazing metal without mercy shredded everything in its path.
“Flames!”
Parcy’s wounded body jumped into action and activated his jet thrusters, becoming a wave of fire and thundering into the midst of the Cybernet division’s ranks.
Roar!
The intense fire devoured everything in an instant.
Ordinary people couldn’t stand a chance in the face of the spiritual flame. There were heavy casualties.
“No…”
Watching all of this unfold, Zi’s eyes bulged. Wang Chaoqun realized that he and the leader might be in for another demotion – if they managed to make it out alive.
The sporadic gunfire eventually died out and even the sniper stopped attacking, likely due to unforeseen circumstances.
Parcy shrugged, fully recovered. Tentacles sprouted from his torso and torso: “Now… without any distractions, it’s your turn.”
“Boss…”
Wang Chaoqun looked at Zi, “There’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you…”
“No!”
Before he could finish, Cheng Feng screamed, “Don’t jinx it, isn’t our situation already dire enough?”
“…”
Parcy frowned, feeling that the satisfactory mood had been ruined.
“But it doesn’t matter, the final winner is still me!”
He was about to step forward when he suddenly looked in another direction.
A figure in a plain shirt entered from the security perimeter. A tall, average-looking middle-aged man announced, “Captain of the Cybernet Special Operations Team, Yang Feixiong, here to provide support.”
“Oh? Finally, someone impressive shows up, second-class?”
Parcy paused but didn’t seem concerned.
In his Profession, even within the second class, he was highly offensive and, coupled with an undying body, felt utterly invincible.
“Stupid man, embracing the curse willingly! Just looking at you, it’s clear your organization experimented on you…”
Yang Feixiong snorted, casting a Rune of Light and Shadow in the air: “Purification!”
A milky white radiance illuminated the entire area, as though a mini sun had manifested.
“Aah!”
In the light, the mouths on Parcy’s face, the eyes on his hands, and the tentacles all over his body began melting, emitting black smoke, and screamed inhumanly.
“According to the latest studies, the so-called curse is linked to an intense negative emotion… The Special Operations Team developed a special spell to counter it, seems to be quite effective.”
Yang Feixiong looked at Zi and Wang Chaoqun, “You two, get back to your team now and take care of this place!”
“Yes, sir!”
Zi and Wang Chaoqun jolted to attention.
“And you, foolish man!”
Yang Feixiong came forward, grabbed Parcy’s head with one hand.
Under the illumination earlier, his undying body seemed to have lost its effect. His body was oozing pus and blood, close to dying.
“You’ve committed murder, and you will face trial in the Cybernet division… Foreigners are really stupid. Do you think one man can stand against the entire Cybernet division?”
Yang Feixiong, a towering figure, looked intimidating, holding Parcy like a bear hoisting its prey, a sight to be revered.
“Heh, heh…” frёewebnoѵēl.com
Blood flowed down Parcy’s cheeks like a tiny stream.
His lips moved, “You are the fools… I know, I’m just bait.”
“What?”
Yang Feixiong’s expression changed.
Zi was rapidly pressing on her earpiece, “Cybernet division under attack, unidentified assailants!”
“Order the nearby officers to assist!”
Yang Feixiong’s expression changed again.
“Heh, heh… It’s pointless… Half of our God’s Hand has come, a mere division will not withstand us, you have no time.”
Parcy chuckled hoarsely, “The Eye of God will avenge me.”
“Their target is… the special prison area!” Zi’s expression changed, “A large number of Beasts that were cursed are detained there!”
“Half of the power? It seems that one of God’s Brain has also arrived?”
Yang Feixiong clenched his teeth, “Damn them.”
Sploosh!
As his words fell, Parcy’s head in his grip lolled to one side, completely devoid of life.
Zi: “…”
Even if you hated this man, was it necessary to kill him? Didn’t you want to interrogate him?
“It wasn’t me… I’m sure I didn’t use that much force. He didn’t die by my hands!” Yang Feixiong’s face shifted, he quickly said, “There’s an invisible enemy hiding nearby.”
Unfortunately, even though they carefully scanned their surroundings, they couldn’t find any trace of the enemy.
An illusory Wing Eye from the Spirit World hovered, like a deity, attentively watching their every move.
