The taller robber had no more options, yet Chubby Harry and his butler still stood there unharmed. The kid from the Budokan who should be dead was standing there, but this little brother had died.
He knew that he had failed, and he had failed in the worst possible way. He wouldn’t be able to report back to his boss, and he could never get over the fact that he had killed his little brother. Therefore, at this moment, he planned to die, but he wasn’t going to die alone!
He had always collaborated with his little brother. He was responsible for sneak attacks, and his little brother did the close-quarters combat. However, his little brother didn’t know that he was actually more skilled in close-quarters combat.
The taller man was losing his mind, and his expression had become creepy as he said, “Boss won’t forgive me for this, so all of you are going to die today.”
He suddenly held the dagger with two fingers. Then, he turned into a phantom, and both of his hands quickly moved in a zig-zag motion, creating many afterimages. Thin white lights appeared in many places, especially at the turning points. If one counted carefully, there were four spots reflecting white lights.
“Air… Airspeed Slash!! Dodge! Mu Fan!!! He’s using a proper dagger technique! Dodge quickly!” Chubby Harry shouted with worry as he immediately recalled this move that he had seen in the videos on the PO Battle Network. This was one of the real combat techniques, and it was a B+ level technique.
Airspeed Slash! The signature characteristic of this technique was that when it was successfully used, three or more spots must reflect a white light! The finger strength and wrist strength of the user must reach level-15 or above, and there was a unique way of exerting force. With this technique, the dagger would reach the opponent at a super high speed, causing harm if not death.
This taller man’s move showed four reflecting white lights! It meant that he had mastered this technique!
“Haha, you know your stuff, fat boy. But since my little brother is gone, I don’t want the money anymore. Today… All of you can die.” He leaped forward, looking like a maniac with the intention to kill in his eyes. He wanted to chop up the kid in front of him to pieces!
Mu Fan’s eyelids twitched after hearing what Chubby Harry said, and his eyes pierced through the web of light that the dagger created, looking at the taller man’s wrist as he took a deep breath.
He instantly stood still, and his heart suddenly started to beat four times faster, pushing the blood towards his waist and leg! The ground below his feet collapsed slightly as Mu Fan lifted his right leg.
Chubby Harry widened his eyes in shock when he saw this. No way! Is this…
Mu Fan suddenly dropped his right leg as his left leg quickly stepped forward, dashing toward the dagger. Just as the dagger was about to touch his body, Mu Fan suddenly shifted backwards and sucked in his stomach. The dagger slashed by right in front of Mu Fan’s abdomen!
Then, his left leg pushed against the ground, sending his body into the air. While in mid-air, his body suddenly folded sideways, going against the law of physics. His upper body was parallel to the ground.
While his waist almost twisted backward, his right leg kicked out like a lightning bolt, striking across the night sky! A huge black semilunar afterimage appeared in the air!
While the afterimage remained, Chubby Harry and Uncle Wu felt the ground shake as if a mammoth stomped near them. All they could see was a red airwave surging then disappearing.
No, that was blood mist!! When the dust had disappeared, so did the upper body of the taller robber.
Semi-Lunar Residual-Wind! That was the famous technique of the Diamond-level player, Dark Right Foot, from the PO Battle Network!
It appeared in real life!
The blood flow slowed down, and Mu Fan’s heart rate returned to normal.
Chubby Harry and Uncle Wu’s jaws dropped as both moves were unbelievably quick. Chubby Harry knew Mu Fan well and was somewhat prepared for this, but Uncle Wu only saw a black half-moon shape flashing by as Mu Fan charged at the robber. In the next moment, the upper body of the robber was gone.
Gulp! Both of them swallowed their saliva, and Chubby Harry was glad that Mu Fan was his friend and not an enemy. For Uncle Wu who had been by his master’s side for many years, this was his first close encounter with such a gruesome and shocking scene. This was all done by the boy who he thought looked innocent and naive.
“Phew, I subconsciously used my full strength. I’m surprised that this technique is so strong.” It was shocking to Chubby Harry that Mu Fan didn’t look scared by the remaining half of the corpse. He seemed calm as usual, and there was only a little bit of surprise on his face.
When it was a matter of life or death, there were only two outcomes – dead or alive.
Chubby Harry didn’t know about Mu Fan’s outlook on life. It was as simple as that… Mu Fan would do anything to stay alive.
“Damn.” Mu Fan suddenly remembered something and said in an apologetic tone, “Both of them are dead, so our lead was cut off.”
Chubby Harry was stunned a bit as well, but Uncle Wu suddenly said, “Wait, let me see.”
He approached the shorter man’s corpse on the ground and moved his arm away, lifting up the shirt. A tattoo of a broken axe was uncovered on the corpse’s forearm.
A broken axe? Uncle Wu felt chills running down his back as he stuttered. “It’s the Broken Axe Interstellar Pirate Group! They are their people!”
What! Chubby Harry was more shocked, and Mu Fan suddenly emitted a murderous spirit since Broken Axe was the interstellar pirate group that caused the death of his adoptive parents!
This interstellar pirate group always moved around on the edge of Subdivision Four, and they even had some mysterious connections with the Caesar Empire that was five light years away.
Horrifying legends about them had been told from planets to planets. They didn’t just want the money but also killed innocents. The bloody murders that they had done were told as tales from people to people.
Since this was close to the border, the military force of UGF was weak here. Also, this interstellar pirate group had two warrior-level mechs that were equipped with generation six engines and weren’t mass-produced. Those two mechs were much better than the mass-produced mechs of the military, and the firepower of these brutal interstellar pirates could greatly suppress the military of UGF during combat.
Yet these people reappeared again after a few years, and their targets this time were the wealthy people in every district!
They dared to play at this scale!
Uncle Wu said quickly, “I need to contact Master and explain this. Young Master Harry and Young Master Mu Fan, let’s leave first.”
He looked at Mu Fan as well as he didn’t dare to underestimate this kid after seeing that stunning kick.
Chubby Harry looked at Mu Fan and said, “Mu Fan, come back with me and see my dad; this is a big deal now.”
“I need to go home first, but I’ll visit later,” Mu Fan replied.
Chubby Harry didn’t try to get Mu Fan to stay as Mu Fan’s expression seemed off.
Meanwhile, Uncle Wu quickly called out to the personnel nearby to clean up the scene.
Mu Fan nodded at both Chubby Harry and Uncle Wu before he leaped into the forest and ran towards his base.
His heart was pumping faster than usual as he had unveiled a part of the truth, and the enemy who had killed his adoptive parents was about to make a reappearance.
Now, he must go back and find Black in the PO Battle Network to figure this out.
He wanted to kill them with his own hands!!!
…
District 1 of Planet Loga was the executive and economic center, and it was the most important district.
In an underground bar within a residential district –
The light was dim, and the screens were bright. Most people had become wasted and were dancing in this noisy place.
A person was sitting in front of a screen below, and he lifted his head up and reported after detecting something “Boss, the signals from the two in District 22 disappeared.” Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
The metal office desk blocked this man’s vision. The dim light avoided that area, leaving only a shadow to be cast onto the wall behind him
“Mhm, ignore them. Their minds haven’t always been here,” an indifferent voice said after a moment of silence.
A buff man standing on the side lowered his head and asked, “Boss, then what about… what about the plan?
“Umm, we’ll continue since Senator Wen will take care of this. How good do they expect us to be when they are this messy?” The indifferent and cold-blooded voice continued, “The time is unchanged.”
“It’s June. Residents of Planet Loga, are you prepared for my arrival? Haha…”
