Chapter 78

A Rank-7 Gene Body martial arts practitioner's Cell Index was generally between 3,000 and 10,000 points. Through some special means to stimulate their cells, there were also some who broke through 10,000 points. Moreover, the military had always spared no effort in nurturing talents.

Senior was only 29 years old, but he had already evolved into a Rank-7 Gene Body. Although he was not as good as the demon-level geniuses in the elite army, his qualifications were considered very high among the ordinary people.

In a place like the Army, where there were many talented people, the higher-ups were also very insightful. Naturally, such a talent would not be let go of. After some special training and the use of gene medicine, Senior's Cell Index had long exceeded 13,000 points. His current strength was not much different from some brigadier generals. The only difference was the number of meritorious deeds.

Gu Ding and Lilliath knew very well that the guy in front of them was an unprecedentedly strong enemy.

Not only did a Rank-7 Gene Body's Cell Index far exceed a Rank-6 Gene Body's, but their strength and speed were also on a completely different level.

Gu Ding's Ultimate Arts had been activated to Level 6, and he had even entered Rage Attack Level 2, but he could barely keep up with his opponent's movements. His every attack was easily blocked by his opponent.

Lilliath, on the other hand, struggled even more. Although she had special Pupillary Powers, she could only see the movements of a Rank-6 Gene Body at most. When it came to Senior, she could only catch a general idea. Every time she fired, she relied on her intuition for firearms. Fortunately, she was an excellent gunner, and her intuition for firearms was rarely wrong.

There were two main styles of gunners. One was the violent crushing style, and the other was the team support style that Lilliath was currently doing.

Every bullet she fired was to predict her opponent's movements and obstruct his attacks. This kind of prediction became even more difficult when Lilliath could not completely capture her opponent's movements. However, Lilliath still managed to do it.

In order to assist Gu Ding, she even changed her gun to a smaller size and increased the frequency of her attacks.

The reduction in the power of her gun made her attacks unable to cause much damage to Senior. However, in the team support style, the goal was not to cause damage to the enemy, but to harass and obstruct them.

With Neptune's help, Gu Ding could clearly see Senior's weak points. He did not have many weak points, only a dozen or so. This kind of person who had undergone professional training was fundamentally different from Ter's kind of untrained people.

Gu Ding also knew that compared to his opponent, his attack power was not enough. Only by attacking his opponent's weak point would he have a chance of winning. In less than a minute, he had launched more than a hundred attacks. He did not stop at all, just so that his opponent would not have a chance to counterattack.

After the two of them joined forces, Senior was no longer as relaxed as before because he realized that Gu Ding's every attack was aimed at his weak point, forcing him to defend passively. At the same time, he discovered something else. Lilliath's marksmanship was better than anyone he knew in the Army. He knew very well that with Lilliath's genetic level, she would not be able to capture his movements at all. However, each of her bullets still accurately landed in the right place. Moreover, she and Gu Ding's teamwork was unbelievably good. Every time one of them attacked, the other would immediately find their flaws. Moreover, every time Gu Ding revealed a flaw and Senior wanted to counterattack, Lilliath's bullets would accurately appear and successfully block his counterattack.

"This little girl has used the auxiliary style of fighting to the extreme. Moreover, Gu Ding's teamwork with her is better than some of the partners in the Army who have worked with her for more than ten years …" Senior frowned.

At the port, the fight between the three of them quickly attracted a crowd of onlookers. Someone from the Port Authority also noticed it and began to send security personnel over.

Some busybodies began to record videos of the fight. The security personnel sent by the Port Authority soon arrived at the scene.

"Please stop fighting immediately, or the Port Authority has the right to arrest you for disturbing the peace," a man in a Port Authority uniform shouted at the three of them.

Gu Ding and Lilliath did not intend to stop. They were Interstellar Pirates, and the Federal Port Authority had no power over them.

Senior did not intend to stop either. The Army and the Port Authority were not at odds with each other for a long time. If it were not for the guys from the Port Authority, the Army would have been able to capture at least ten times more wanted criminals than they did now. Moreover, he had expected this to happen the moment he changed into casual clothes and appeared here.

The other party had killed his men. As a man who was protective of his people, he would not be satisfied if he did not teach Gu Ding and Lilliath a lesson.

He used his hand knife to cut off the bullet that Lilliath had pointed at his eyebrows and sped up a little. He wanted to use this method to drag out Gu Ding's attack rhythm. Once the other party's attack rhythm was disrupted, a big opening would appear. It was also the easiest way to solve the current stalemate.

Gu Ding suddenly felt the pressure increase. Although he had been the main attacker since the start of the fight, the other party still perfectly defended against his every attack after nearly ten minutes of continuous bombardment. The other party even took advantage of the openings he exposed to counterattack several times. Fortunately, Lilliath noticed it in time and stifled his movements with bullets. Otherwise, Gu Ding would have been defeated long ago. Now that the other party had sped up, Gu Ding had no choice but to increase the frequency of his attacks. Once he broke free from the suppression of the first attack, the other party's counterattack would be fatal.

"This guy is too strong. Even with Ultimate Arts Level 7 activated, you can't seriously injure him. Moreover, so far, he hasn't even used his Level 2 defense ability. "Neptune did not expect the other party to be so strong.

After all, there were strong and weak Rank-7 Gene Bodies. A weak Cell Index might only be around three thousand, while a strong Cell Index might be more than ten thousand. Neptune could only look up the other party's information as much as possible, but he could not directly scan the other party's Cell Index. However, he could roughly estimate the other party's Cell Index based on the intensity of Gu Ding's attacks. "I did a rough estimate just now. This guy's Cell Index is at least above twelve thousand. Although he's only at the rank of senior colonel, his combat effectiveness is already at the level of a brigadier general. "

Gu Ding knew his own strength better. If what Neptune said was true, he had no chance of winning. He began to think about how to get out of this crisis with Lilliath.

At that moment, Senior suddenly leaped backward and retreated from the battle. His eyes fell on two men in black in the distance, one of whom was being supported.

"Master Senior, Woody isn't dead. He's just drugged," the man who had been following Gu Ding shouted at Senior.

"You guys are different from the Interstellar Pirates I used to hunt down." Senior put his hands back into his trouser pockets. He seemed to have no intention of fighting anymore. "I'll give you a word of advice. Don't cause trouble on this planet."

After saying that, he brushed past Senior and walked toward the two men in black.

"Hey, I have a question I don't understand. Why did you choose to fight at the port?" Gu Ding called out to him.

"My orders from the beginning were to keep an eye on you guys. As for fighting, it was because I thought you guys had killed Woody and wanted to teach you guys a lesson. "Senior stopped in his tracks and gave his answer.

"Who gave you the order?" Gu Ding asked.

"You're asking too many questions." Senior turned his head. "There's one more thing I forgot to tell you. The next time I see you, I won't hold back."
