The Creatures That We Are-Chapter 357: Sir Jin

When the slaughterers first appeared, Heavenly Dog had fought alongside the others, but to disappointing effect. There were too many slaughterers scattered in too wide an area, and they were quick and grappling with his teammates, making it difficult for Heavenly Dog to use Spatial Dissection, and the risk of friendly fire was high.

Thus, Heavenly Dog came up with a bold plan.

He took flight and attempted to use Spatial Dissection near the ground in a wide range, like cutting a cake horizontally near the bottom.

However, he would need time to gather energy, at least thirty seconds.

And during the process, Ronnie had used Disorientation. Although Heavenly Dog was farther from the battlefield, he was still influenced by the Talent, resulting in some delay.

Now, Heavenly Dog had finally finished casting his Talent.

He activated level 4 Spatial Dissection at the entire road, and the Talent reached level 5 the moment it activated!

Lying on the ground, Gao Yang felt the space around him freeze for a second. Then a meter above his head, there was a strange, almost imperceptible sense of something splitting. He saw the cut surface of the displaced space like the gap of a broken glass, disappearing after a short second.

Then the space of the entire road returned to normal.

All awakeners were lying on the ground, while the standing slaughterers had stopped fighting.

Two seconds passed.

The majority of slaughterers split in half, some at the thighs, some at the waist, some at the chest, and some—while in motion—ended up cut diagonally.

Three slaughterers alone survived the onslaught.

All other slaughterers collapsed like toppled building blocks, their blood splattering before pooling and painting the entire road red, forming streams of blood.

Gao Yang, Nine Frost, Ronnie, and Green Tea were the first to rise to their feet. They rushed toward the three surviving monsters and made quick work of them.

Heavenly Dog slowly descended on a car.

Clack.

With a shudder, the top of the car leaned slightly to the side. It was clear that it had been cut in half as well, and the top part had slipped from the bottom part.

Heavenly Dog gasped for breaths. The move had exhausted almost all his power, but given the result, it was worth it.

If he hadn’t made the move to slaughter most of the slaughterers, at least one third of Team Seven Shadow would die in the fight.

“Ah...” Old Seven, with his arms cut, leaned against the curb, crying out in pain.

“Help him!” Green Tea shouted, wiping blood off his face.

“Citrus, give me a hand!” A blonde frail girl with a black newsboy cap and a first aid bag picked up Old Seven’s two arms.

Citrus took them and pressed them to Old Seven’s stumps. The girl in a newsboy cap then took out two shots of Medicine C and used them on Old Seven’s stumps. Half a minute later, the arms started stitching back together, but at an incredibly low speed.

Placing her hands on his arms, the girl muttered under her breath.

Soon, Old Seven’s arms went limp like rubber, but properly reattached.

“You’ll be fine in five minutes,” said the girl.

“I’m fine, Rain River. Go save Three Strings!” Old Seven was still worried about Three Strings despite his sickly condition.

The girl named Rain River shook her head with pain flashing through her eyes, the dark look on her face darkening further. “His heart was pierced. I can’t do anything.”

“Fuck!” Old Seven cursed, bursting into tears of guilt. “It was on me. It was all on me... If only my air bullets were a little stronger, Three Strings wouldn’t have died!”

“Damn it! Damn it!” Old Seven couldn’t move his arms just yet, so he slammed his head against the concrete walkway behind him instead.

“Old Seven.” Green Tea had come up to him at some point, and he cushioned Old Seven’s head with a hand. “I know you and Three Strings were close like brothers, and I won’t stop you from seeking death. But not now, not when you still have to avenge Three Strings.”

With snot and tears running down his face, Old Seven nodded vehemently. “Revenge! I’ll get him revenge! I’ll slaughter these sons of bitches!”

The encounter left them with one dead, two seriously injured, and six lightly injured. Their cars had been destroyed by the wide-range Spatial Dissection, no longer drivable.

Thankfully, there was a bus parked by the bus stop nearby. The driver was most likely on his last trip, and unable to resist the urge to sleep, he parked by the road before blacking out.

Gray Bear carried the driver off the bus before starting the engine. The others hopped on, making their way to the Western Suburban Park.

...

Team Azure Dragon, 3:45 in the morning.

The car Joker was riding in slammed into the display window of a clothes shop.

The grating alarm of the shop blared, while the car smoked.

Bam!

Joker kicked the door of the passenger seat open, jumping out of the car.

A few seconds later, the door in the back opened as well, and the other team members filed out. Outside of one whose forehead was bleeding, the others were relatively unscathed.

“Stand behind me!” Azure Dragon, having gotten out of the other car, shouted from the center of the road.

The others followed his instruction, crowding behind him, while Four Rainbow and Joker stood on his right and left.

“There’s only one enemy, but they’re strong.” Azure Dragon had already sensed the presence. “Here they come.”

No sooner had he said that than a dark figure appeared in the sky.

Azure Dragon looked up. From his perspective, the backlit figure happened to be at the center of the blood moon, as if they had jumped off from there. freewebn ovel.com

Boom!

The figure landed twenty meters before Azure Dragon, crushing the ground beneath their feet and scattering countless shards of rock, the resulting shockwaves strong enough to force their eyes close.

Azure Dragon’s eyes twitched.

The enemy was an old man with white hair, long braid, and a face covered in beard. The wrinkles on his face looked as if they had been etched with a knife. His killing intent was razor-sharp, and his eyes bright with fighting spirit.

He was wearing nothing but a pair of black pants and kung fu shoes, revealing his well-built muscles.

Glancing at Azure Dragon, he declared in a booming voice, “Your name!”

“Azure Dragon, Qilin Guild,” Azure Dragon answered without fear. “And you?”

After a two-second pause, the old man said, “Sir Jin, shadowstalker, pride monster.”

Azure Dragon scoffed. At least the old man was being open.

Hands clenched into fists, he got into a fighting stance with one hand in the front and the other pulled back. “Come on.”

Sir Jin barked out a laugh. “So you’re Azure Dragon. I’ve wanted to fight you for a long time. What a shame. A real shame. The one I’m looking for tonight isn’t you.”

He dropped to one knee with two hands on the ground, like a sprinter getting ready to take off.

Two seconds later, he shot out like a bullet and disappeared, leaving a burst of powerful currents in his wake, the ground cracked and sunken.

Outside of Azure Dragon, everyone was shocked by the display of power.

Was this the level a pride monster was at?

“Do we give chase, Elder Azure Dragon?” Four Rainbow asked with uncertainty. If they wanted to catch up, they would have to take a helicopter.

Azure Dragon thought for a moment. “He’s heading toward the White Lake Hotel. Don’t bother. We’ll continue with our mission.”

Four Rainbow was still worried. “But...”

“Fret not.” Azure Dragon cut him off with a smile. “While Sir Jin is strong, he isn’t Guildmaster’s match.”
