Chapter 217 - Fierce and Ambitious Man, Blood Devil (1/2)
Very soon, most of the cloud of dust and smoke that rose due to the intense battle had dissipated. So long as one’s eyesight wasn’t too bad, they could clearly see the situation inside the death pool.
The huge fish-scaled gorilla was lying on the ground, hanging on by a breath. Its four strong and robust limbs were like caterpillars that had suddenly stopped squirming, creating a strange appearance joint by joint.
Already, one-third of the scales from that ancient fish-scaled armor had fallen off from being thrown over and over again. In many places it was like damaged water pipes, spraying blood instead of water.
Owing to those high-intensity throws, one of the eyeballs of the fish-scaled gorilla had been smashed. Having lost the eyelid protecting the eyeball, a fountain of blood squirted from the eye socket like a mountain spring in the rainy season.
Qin Fen’s body had already returned to its normal condition. Except his face was a bit pale.
The strength of the fish-scaled gorilla was still beyond his estimated level. When he forcefully received this monster’s attack, Qin Fen’s blood and vital energy were sent into turmoil from the shock of the violent power.
His bones might not have been broken by the fish-scaled gorilla, but the two-way impact made every joint in his body squeeze together, causing him a whole lot of pain.
Seeing that the fish-scaled gorilla could not stand back up from the ground and was not too far away from its death, Qin Fen finally took a deep breath of relief as the true energy within his body erupted once more.
At this time, a smile had appeared on his pale face.
Sometimes, it’s really hard to distinguish between good things and bad things.
Because he broke through to six-star class by creating a boxing skill during his retreat, Qin Fen had lost the opportunity to break through to an even further level. However, that savage blow from the fish-scaled gorilla had stirred the bottleneck in his body that should have been broken through, which resulted in this eruption of his true energy.
Looking down at the fish-scaled gorilla on the ground, the corner Ming Kun’s eyes twitched constantly. If he was asked to deal with this monster, it would be impossible for him to win so quickly and in such a splendid manner.
Among the eight-star martial artists, except for a few martial artists who were practicing unique exercises, perhaps there was none that could finish this fish-scaled gorilla faster than Qin Fen.
As for six-star martial artists, Ming Kun was highly skeptical. Even if you searched the entirety of the Federation, one could not find a second six-star martial artist who could beat an eight-star mutated beast into a crippled monster.
Taking a sidelong glance at Wang Hao, whose face was brimming with smiles, he secretly praised General Wang Hao’s unique insight.
“General Wu, it seems that…haha…” Wang Hao said, applauding leisurely, “I have won this gamble of life and death…”
Wu Lianda’s eyes and ears twitched fiercely. Never before had he seen such a matter, never before had he suffered such a big loss. Suddenly, he fiercely tightened the grip on the cane in his hand so that everyone could hear cracking sounds coming from it.
While everyone thought that this old general was venting out his loss of face, the sole eye of the crippled fish-scaled gorilla lying flat on the ground burst forth with a red gleam as it pounced at Qin Fen with incredible speed.
Right this instant, its mouth opened wide.
The head of fish-scaled gorilla wasn’t too big, but its sudden opening of the mouth was like a snake swallowing a mouse. The extent to which it could stretch his jaws was simply shocking, it was almost enough to swallow Qin Fen whole.
This change in the situation was rather too quick; so quick that before everyone could react, Qin Fen had already been swallowed by the fish-scaled gorilla.
Finally, a smile appeared on that gloomy face of Wu Lianda as he slowly spread his palm open. To everyone’s surprise, the ball that was used as the handle of the cane had a circuit board installed inside.
There was no need for any further explanation. Wang Hao also knew that this circuit board had a special relationship with the fish-scaled gorilla below. Supposedly, some kind of stimulating circuit was installed in its brain, which broke the four limbs of the fish-scaled gorilla into a dozen more pieces, so that it would rise again and give one final blow.
Almost everyone standing by the edge of the death pool drew in a cold breath of air at the same time. The attack of the fish-scaled gorilla was just too sudden and too fast.
Everyone placed themselves in Qin Fen’s shoes and believed that even if they were standing in the field, they too might get killed by this fatal blow.
“Hahaha, Young General Wang.” Wu Lianda, throwing the cane on the ground and reaching out to take another one from his subordinate, looked at Wang Hao with his face radiating with happiness. “It seems that you have nothing to do with this ton of powder of mine…”
“Look at that gorilla! It seems like it is in pain!” Suddenly someone by the death pool shouted, interrupting Wu Lianda’s happy speech.
Following that man’s shout, Wu Lianda turned his gaze at the fish-scaled gorilla in the pit.
The fish-scaled gorilla that had just erupted with the sudden blow was now lying on the ground. His eyes filled with incomparable pain. Its head was fiercely shaking at a rate of tens of times per second constantly.
The neck muscles under its scales were showing irregular peristalsis movements. Even some of the scales that had still not fallen off were standing erect due to this tremendous force.
Creak…creak…creak…
Suddenly, creaking noise came from the chin of the fish-scaled gorilla as its jaws moved up and down at uniform speed. Meanwhile, Qin Fen, who had just been swallowed, was like Pangu separating heaven and earth.
Only, while Pangu separated the heaven and the earth, Qin Fen was separating that stinking mouth of the fish-scaled gorilla.
“This…” At the sight of this, Wu Lianda was completely flabbergasted. This had completely exceeded all his estimates.
Qin Fen, standing inside the fish-scaled gorilla’s mouth, flipped his fingers, which were as hard as drill rods on each hand, and dug them straight into the bloody flesh of fish-scaled gorilla’s upper jaw before he made his way out miserably screaming fish-scaled gorilla’s mouth, with his one arm still inside it.
Under the excruciating pain, the fish-scaled gorilla tried to clench its two rows of sharp teeth. It believed that its teeth that could even pierce through iron plates could surely bite off the arm of this human.
Qin Fen, with his left hand still inside the fish-scaled gorilla’s mouth, pushed its jaw that it wanted to shut.
At the same time, the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art circulated throughout his body as his muscle fibers were fully activated once more, invading every inch of his body. While his eyes suddenly widened, radiating a furious glare.
He looked closely at the grim look on Qin Fen’s face, and a feeling of trepidation suddenly arose in the heart of fish-scaled gorilla. That ice-cold look made it instinctively feel the approach of its death.
A chilling murderous intent flashed past Qin Fen’s eyes. Just now, he was somewhat careless, believing that this filthy beast could not cause any more trouble already. Had he not taken the initiative to rush into its mouth like a dragon rushing into the pool, his body might have been bitten off by it. It would have been really troublesome.
Recalling what Butcher had once taught, “before the enemy’s head has fallen, you absolutely cannot put your guard down”, Qin Fen felt his face a go little hot.
It was really a big mistake to be so careless in a mission where he could die anytime.
At this moment, Qin Fen decided to completely put the dao of butcher killing into practice. An intense bloodlust arose from Qin Fen’s body, making even the spectators standing outside the death pool feel cold.
Immediately, he pulled his two arms towards both sides!
Crack…swish…
Blood, like water coming out from high-pressure water cannon on a fire truck, gushed out from the wound where the fish-scaled gorilla’s lower jaw had been torn off, dying Qin Fen’s entire body in its blood.
Like a gore fiend, Qin Fen stood there proudly after having thrown away the fish-scaled gorilla with a jerk of his hands that were still inserted inside its upper and lower jaw. He didn’t so much as take a glance at the constantly whimpering fish-scaled gorilla lying powerlessly on the ground.
At the sight of this, the people spectating the death pool were shocked. Many people’s muscles suddenly tightened up as the sound of their gasping rang to no end.
Killing a fish-scaled gorilla was something that some of the people among the spectators could do, but to do it in such a terrifying way…not everyone could do it.
Qin Fen raised his hand as he wiped off the blood on his face before raising his head, looking at Wu Lianda at the edge of the death pool. “Delightful! Is there more? Send one more!”
“Hahaha…hahaha…” Wu Lianda forced his laughter, but there wasn’t any smiling expression on his face, not in the slightest. Slowly, he applauded and repeatedly nodded. “Young ones deserved to be treated with respect, young ones deserved to be treated with respect.”
“Old General Wu.” Now, it was Wang Hao’s turn to have his face beaming with joy. “Thank you very much for that one-ton powder of yours.”
“Haha…” Wu Lianda laughed coldly as he flung his long sleeve. Without speaking any further, he turned around and walked away with his men.
It didn’t make any sense to stay here anymore. Naturally, Wu Lianda didn’t want to see others happy. He needed to swallow his anger and walk away from this place.
As for that one ton of powder!? Why would a dead man need any powder? Wu Lianda’s eyes were flickering with an endless cold gleam. Asking him to give away one ton of powder was equal to asking him to give away half of his forces. This was something he couldn’t do.
The iron gates of the death pool opened once more as the audience took their leave. A blood-covered Qin Fen walked out from the death pool, a place no one had ever left alive.
Wang Hao, with a big smile on his face, made his way to Qin Fen and opened his arms, giving him a vigorous bear hug, ignoring the blood on his body.
A ton of powder! It was his. Even Wang Hao had to sigh happily. He had hit it big.
What’s more, not only had he gained a ton powder, he had also severely weakened Wu Lianda at the same time. The future unification of this area was just around the corner.
“Very good, kid! My eyes really didn’t make a mistake.”
Wang Hao, having given a bear hug, happily retreated while repeatedly praising Qin Fen.
Lin Ling, like a bird, was in Qin Fen’s arms already.
Wang Hao’s subordinates, who had watched this battle with him, were now praising General’s unique insight from the bottom of their heart and also peeking a few glances at Qin Fen at the same time.
“Young man, you have a future.” The honorary presidential special envoy rhythmically applauded. “You are absolutely not a thing of the pond. In the future, you will surely have your place in the Golden Triangle.”
“But of course, Wang Hao’s brother is naturally not bad.”
Wang Hao was still gallantly smiling but for a moment, he turned his head as a murderous intention that could send chills to anyone radiated from the depth of his eyes.
“General…” A soldier in camouflage uniform jumped out of the car and whispered in Wang Hao’s ear. “Chen Feiyu is also out.”
“Oh!? Good news!” Wang Hao’s beamed with joy. “Today I can say happiness has descended upon the house. Let’s go and meet Brother Chen!”
“General, I will take a shower first!”
Qin Fen cupped his hand before following a soldier on another road.
After walking into the bathroom, Qin Fen took off his clothes. Surprised, he saw his body.
My body was covered in fish-scaled gorilla’s blood. Even if the quality of the camouflage suit was really good, it couldn’t be fully waterproof…there should be some blood on my skin. However, why can’t I see any bit of blood on my skin?
After a few seconds of daze, Qin Fen hurriedly rushed down and changed into a set of clothes that had been prepared by Lin Ling. Only then did he rushed to the hall.
