Chapter 96 How Do You Want To Die?
A chuckle escaped from Justin's mouth when he saw Lola's behavior.
'She did better than expected.'
Standing on top of the highest building, he watched the battle going down below without any expression on his face.
He had a plan for selecting these four for this mission. With his ability and perception. He knew the strongest people in the camp and he was somewhat surprised by their population.
He turned his gaze from Lola's and looked in another direction.
In front of a building, a lady in her late twenties stood with two short daggers in her hands.
A couple of meters from her was another person dressed in a purple robe with a long whip.
The two ladies stared at each other for a couple of moments without uttering a word. The cold gentle breeze blew their robes back and forth.
Everywhere was silent. Suddenly, the two ladies moved at the same time.
A cloud of mist came out of the first lady. The mist quickly covered the surroundings like a fog.
They disappeared into the mist without making a sound. The mist moves back and forth. As time went by, the mist became thicker, making it quite impossible to see through.
Bang!
A streak of lightning appeared amid the mist and a cry of agony spread throughout the surrounding area.
The mist shook vehemently while its thickness reduced a bit. Inside the mist, a lady holds her chest and struggles to stand up.
She licked the blood at the corner of her lips and said.
"H-how can you be this strong!?" her voice quivered in horror.
She was Natasha the second in command of the camp. She was at the peak of First Circle Existence and she was gradually filling the requirement to level up to a Second Circle.
Only the leader of the camp was a bit stronger than her. In the sense that, he just had a breakthrough to the Second Circle a couple of days ago.
Now, seeing a lady younger than her and who was monstrously powerful than her shocked her to the core.
'I thought I developed faster…. But alas, I'm a frog in the Well. ' The thought left a bitter taste in her mouth.
She wanted to stand on top of the world with her newfound power. She almost achieved it. In the end…
"Though you are stronger than me. I won't go down without a fight." She murmured.
Natasha blended with the fog and raced toward the expressionless Susan.
She moved in a zig-zag motion, trying to confuse Susan. Nevertheless, Susan didn't move an inch from her position.
Her eyes were firmly fixed on a point. Suddenly, she made a move.
"Lightning world." Her whip snaked toward her back and a bolt of lightning flashed out of her whip.
Natasha's eyes widened. All the hair on her body stood straight and her instinct was on the full drive.
Quickly, she abandons the thought of attacking Susan and retreats. But she made a mistake.
This wasn't an ordinary attack. The lightning world covered the mist, filling it with a bolt of lightning.
Before Natasha could realize what was happening. The attack was in front of her.
Time froze for a moment and her heart failed to beat.
'Is this my end?'
Bang!
Natasha was thrown out of the mist, crashing into the nearby building. At once, the mist disappeared and the cold expressionless Susan stared in Natasha's direction.
A deep hole appeared on her chest and blood flowed out of her major orifices. Besides, smoke came out of her body like a smoking fish.
Her long bluish hair was burnt to crisp. No one would imagine the peerless beauty to turn into a bald woman in a short battle.
She raised her head with some difficulty and stared at Susan while trying to open her mouth.
Blood gushed out from the open mouth and life drifted from her body. Her head fell to the ground, deader than dead.
Seeing this, Susan exhaled slowly and turned to the surrounding building.
She knew some people were hiding, waiting for the outcome of the battle.
Suddenly, a group of men came out of the opposite building. They stare nervously at Susan.
In front of the group was a middle-aged man. A bead of sweat covered the man from head to toe while he was shivering.
"P-Please don't kill us." He said.
"Are you part of the people that force people into a slave and choose to sacrifice humans to the beast?"
The group kept quiet and stared at the middle-aged man. Seeing this, Susan didn't need to wait for an answer. She already got one.
Whoosh!
A streak of lightning danced toward the group. Seeing the incoming attack, the leader of the group woke up from his stupor and shouted.
"Run!"
At once, the group bolted in different directions, running for their lives.
However, Susan was already prepared for this.
Whoosh!
A lightning silhouette flashed through the street at an unprecedented speed.
Shortly, a miserable cry of agony reverberated throughout the street.
Dead bodies filled the street with smoke coming out of their bodies.
"Please don't kill me. Please…" A middle-aged man fell on his knee and pleaded.
"W-We were forced to do it." He added with tears gathering at the corner of her eyes.
In front of him was Susan who was cold staring at the middle-aged man.
The man waited for Susan to speak but he failed to hear anything from her. He raised her head and saw her piercing gaze and his heart stop beating for a moment.
Recovering from her initial shock, he shouted.
"I know where all the camp resources and I can tell you where the leader is—"
Bang!
The man flew back and crashed to the ground, puking out blood. Smokes came out from his chest and a ghastly injury appeared.
All his innards came out covered in blood and steam. Tell death, his eyes were wide open. He didn't believe Susan would ruthlessly kill him without uttering a word.
A smirk appeared on Susan's face when he saw the man's dead body.
'It is your kind that I hate the most.' She thought in disdain.
She turned and left; though she knew some people were still hiding in the building. But that wasn't her job.
Nasir and the Pipe man would deal with them.
Meanwhile, Lola had tears at the corner of her eyes and her breath was erratic.
She had been fighting for some minutes without rest. Her power was diminishing every second.
"Don't come near me. Stay back." She shouted.
Her wind attack hit a man and it sent him flying. However, the man didn't sustain any life-threatening injury.
He dusted his body and rushed to join the intimidating fight.
They saw through her weakness. She was still a kid and couldn't stand the chance of killing a human being, though she had the power.
The men that surrounded her were only threaded people. At first, they feared her but now, it has changed.
"I don't have all day." The leader of the group said coldly.
"Go catch her. We need to move. " He added.
"Alright," A voice said from the back.
A silhouette disappeared from the last car and rushed toward the cat and mouse fight in the distance.
Bang!
Ah!
Lola was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground. A couple of her ribs were broken.
She raised her head and looked at the man dressed in black from head to toe.
Fear gripped her heart and her face whitened. She puked a chunk of blood and fell back to the ground, looking at the sky.
"Big brother Justin. Where are you?" Tears dripped from her eyes.
"Right here?" A calm voice echoed in her ear.
With some difficulty, she turned and saw Justin smiling at her.
A smile appeared on her whitened face. "I…. Know Big brother Justin…. won't let me face….. this bad people alone…" Her voice trailed off and she lose consciousness.
Justin looked at Lola for a moment before she turned to look at the man in black.
"Did you realize what you just did?" he asked calmly.
A long black spear appeared in the hand of the black man but his hand was trembling. He didn't know but he couldn't stop it.
"She is just a small child and you hit her like that"
Bang!
Ah!
The black man flew backward and crashed to the ground. The sound of broken ribs echoed in the surroundings.
His black dress was torn and a bony face appeared under the hood.
He was an ugly young man.
Seeing that his cover was blown. He puked another chunk of blood. His appearance gave him an inferiority complex.
He had been mocked and laughed at. But when the apocalypses descended. It gave him hope to change its fate.
In the end, he chose the wrong side.
Justin stood calmly on the spot and looked at the leader of the group.
"I have to say, your scheme runs deep. You make people fight your battle while you brainwash those helpless people to sacrifice themselves for your course….." He paused before he asked.
"How would you like to die?"
