Chapter 99 - Blank Panther
Jojo stood frozen on the spot, looking at the back of Emma while his last words echoed in her brain. After a couple of seconds, she sighed. She wanted to accept what her commander said, but the image of the death of her fiancé and how those people treat her like dirt appeared in her.
"Commander!" She shouted, walking after Emma.
Hearing Jojo shout, Emma halted and turn his head. "What!"
"Commander, you just can\'t leave me hanging."
Hmm?
Emma was quiet, not quite sure of the meaning of her words. Seeing that the commander was not responding. Jojo took a deep breath. "Commander, are you telling me not to avenge my fiancé?" she looked directly at the helmet, trying to see through the opaque helmet glass.
Understand her words. Emma shook his head. "I don\'t mean that. Live your life as you please. But when the opportunity for you to take your revenge comes. Then, you know what to do." He answered calmly.
Hearing this, all the baffling thoughts in Jojo\'s mind settled immediately and smiled. "Thank you." She whispered. Emma\'s words lifted the heaviness in her heart. If she kept being depressed because of her late fiancé\'s sacrifices. Then, she\'s truly a hypocrite.
While Jojo was still reminiscing about Emma\'s words. She heard Emma\'s word. "And don\'t think about the revenge. Because it will surely come sooner than expected." He turned his head.
What!
This flabbergasted Jojo. She wanted to ask. However, after a few seconds, she decided to keep mute and wait for how things unfold. Nevertheless, she knew the organization she walking for would support her when the time for her to take her revenge.
"Commander, everyone has arrived," Laka announced.
"Commander, we are receiving strange movement on our 9 and 6 o\'clock." A young lady announced.
\'This not good.\'
"Gather around everyone. We\'re moving." Emma communicated through his comms.
Emma picked a box with his rifle in hand and looked at the surroundings. While Jojo\'s injuries were no more a problem. She held her rifle but have some difficulty carrying her box. But immediately, other knights assisted her and carry the box along with his. Seeing this, Emma nodded and looked at everyone. Noticing that every Ghost Hunter was accountable.
"Move!" he commanded.
Right above Emma\'s groups, there are five beautiful butterflies blending with the surroundings. Emma led his teams forward to the unknown. He was sure if he was moving the right way or not. But he knew they must leave this forest if they wanted to survive the beast\'s onslaught.
After walking for an hour, Emma had discovered many dangerous beasts with the aid of the surveillance drones. They could avoid this dangerous beast. However, this does not calm his thumping heart. He saw beasts that were not meant to possibly exist and wondered. What the hell is this! For the umpteen time.
Sometimes, the tremor of the fierce battle of the beast will shake the ground like it was an earthquake, sending shivers at the heart of the Ghost hunters. Without fighting a battle, everyone\'s back was drenched in cold sweats. They knew they were nothing but fish on the chopping board inside this forest.
So, everyone puts their best effort into being discrete as possible. However, no matter discrete they tried. This would go according to someone\'s plan or will.
Emma tried to dodge the beast but to no avail. The only option for them was to fight. \'This goddamn beast.\' he complained.
10 meters in front of them was an animal, 7-meter-tall, sharp claws, black fur with the hue of grey, black eyes with a small pupil of white. Its long tail swirl gently, looking at the unknown creature in its presence.
A giant Panther.
They thought.
"No one should move. When it attacks, don\'t stay in the same position. Find cover immediately. Target its head and probably its stomach… and ready the RPG. Do you copy?" Emma announced a series of commands.
"Copy!" They whispered.
"Fire"
Swiss!
The blank panther attack its prey when it detected a slight movement from its food. While in the air, the panther instinct alarmed from incoming threat, closing its eyes. While also the speed of the panther awestruck, the Ghost hunters. It covered 10 meters in 2 seconds. However, the slight delay in the air made the panther miss the Ghost hunters.
Many bullets hit the panther\'s head, giving it a flesh wound, blood dripping out from its forehead. Nevertheless, it landed nimbly on the ground, turning its head to its nearest target. However, before it could attack, it saw a puny insect in front. This insect was Emma, though. Without further ado, it waves its paw to finish Emma with its sharp claw once and for all.
"Go to hell!" Emma shouted, using the third form of Heavenly stone punch.
Boom!
Emma was pushed back a couple of steps while the black panther swayed gently and took two steps backward, not understanding what just happened. Its look at the insignificant insect, wondering what the hell. Meanwhile, Emma was in another mode entirely.
\'So, these assholes are not strong as the Kpriv. Shit. That stupid snake gave me a false impression.\'
>>You can\'t say that. You were caught off guard. Besides, that snake is full of poison.
\'You\'re right. But let kick some ass.\'
Emma dashed toward the panther with new vigor. While the Ghost hunters had their jaw slacken with their eyes widened.
This can\'t be happening.
Is this truly our commander?
Is he on steroids or what?
Fuck! What this!.
Numerous thoughts were flying in their mind. But one thing is for sure. None of them want their commander to lose. Meanwhile, Emma appeared in front of the panther using his punch movement skill. While also, his helmet displayed the fighting techniques of a panther.
Seeing this, the panther attack Emma with full force. Its paw blurred to the naked eyes. However, Emma was not a normal human being. Besides, the AI captured every movement with the Clock eyes camera. So, everything was like a 3d display in front of Emma.
Emma sidesteps the attack, surprising the panther, but woken by Emma\'s heavy punch in the stomach.
Boom!
