Chapter 171

The deafening roar stopped abruptly. Many people looked toward the source of the sound and saw a shocking scene.

Gu Ding had grabbed Yarrow's wrist with one hand. There was not a single wound on his body. This was completely different from what everyone had expected. Everyone had thought that Gu Ding would have been blown to smithereens by Yarrow's fierce attack. It was worth noting that Yarrow was a Rank-11 Gene Body. Even a Rank-10 Gene Body would have fallen long ago under such a high frequency of attacks. It was impossible for him to survive. However, Gu Ding had done it and was unscathed.

It wasn't just the spectators. Even the Marauders felt their hearts go cold when they saw this scene. They knew their boss's strength very well. No one had expected a kid who had only debuted less than half a year ago to be unscathed after taking so many of their boss's attacks. It was only then that they realized that their crew had picked a tough nut to crack. This time, they might really have to break a few teeth.

Benny and Annie had bitter expressions on their faces. Benny was barely holding on against Biggie. Biggie's swordsmanship was too exquisite. Benny knew that he could not hold on for long. He had been relying on his body movement and defense to hold on. He had planned to hold on until his boss finished off Gu Ding, but he did not expect the situation to turn out like this. He regretted suggesting Yarrow to fight.

Annie had always been a violent woman, but after fighting Ayesha, she realized that Ayesha was even more violent than she was. The little girl, who looked like she was still an adult, had the strength of a Peak Rank-10 Gene Body. Her strength was different from True Vitality. It was strange and powerful. After the two of them started fighting, she realized that she was completely suppressed. Moreover, it was in the strength that she was most proud of. She had thought that everything would be over once Yarrow finished off the fight. However, it seemed that Yarrow was in big trouble.

Ayesha, who was fighting Annie, also saw what happened. She was a little surprised. Yarrow's attack just now would not have been able to avoid serious injury even if she was the opponent. After all, Yarrow was a Rank-11 Gene Body.

…

It was not that Yarrow was weaker than Gu Ding when Gu Ding grabbed his wrist, but he was really scared. He could clearly feel that Gu Ding was not injured by his attack. Instead, his aura was getting stronger.

Moreover, Gu Ding's smile revealed signs of extreme danger.

He knew that Gu Ding was a close-combat martial artist, so he made the right choice. He broke free from Gu Ding's grip and quickly retreated.

Just as he made his move, Gu Ding made his move as well. His golden primary power surged into his right hand, and he grabbed his left leg, which was in the air.

Yarrow reacted in an instant. His right foot brought a silver Righteous Force with it as he stepped toward Gu Ding's chest. A silver beam of light shot out from the bottom of his foot and hit Gu Ding's chest violently.

Gu Ding did not dodge at all and took the hit head-on. Now that his Ultimate Arts had been activated to Level 10, his defense was four times stronger than before. It could be said that none of Yarrow's attacks could hurt him. Yarrow's previous attack had caused Gu Ding to feel pain, but now that his defense had increased by four times, the seemingly fierce kick was no different from a tickle to Gu Ding.

Gu Ding pulled hard and pulled Yarrow, who was trying to escape, back. He clenched his left hand into a fist like a hammer, and golden primary power surged into it again. Then, he slammed it down on Yarrow's chest. This time, he planted a curse on Yarrow that multiplied his damage.

Just the first blow alone had a strength of 4,896 million points.

Although it did not break through Yarrow's defense, he felt a slight dull pain in his chest from the impact. He could also clearly feel that Gu Ding's attack power had increased again. Ignoring the pain in his body, he tried to break free again. The Righteous Force on his left leg exploded, but Gu Ding's right hand was like a dead machine. It was not affected at all, and it continued to clamp down on his left ankle.

Then, Gu Ding's second punch landed. Once again, it carried a dazzling golden light and hit Yarrow's chest. This time, Gu Ding's attack power had reached 9,792 million points. This level of attack was extremely close to Yarrow's defense of more than ten million points.

Yarrow felt as if his chest had been hit by a heavy object. The pain was more than twice as strong as before, and it was extremely close to the limit of his defense. Only then did he vaguely understand what Gu Ding's ability was. "My God, he has the ability to double his attack power. Every attack is twice as strong as the previous one?! This time, he's close to the critical point of my defense. Next attack … "

Yarrow's guess was actually not far from the truth. However, Gu Ding's ability was not attack or defense, but damage stacking, and there was a limit of three attacks. However, according to Yarrow's calculations, Gu Ding had attacked him four times so far, and each attack had doubled his attack power. Therefore, Yarrow did not know where Gu Ding's limit was.

Yarrow began to struggle frantically. He knew that if Gu Ding's next attack landed, he would be completely defeated. However, the more he panicked and struggled, the more he forgot to fight back. In front of Gu Ding, he was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Gu Ding's left hand clamped around his throat and pressed him to the ground.

In that instant, he felt the threat of death.

Gu Ding's fist, which was imbued with golden True Vitality, did not land on his head. Instead, it landed on his chest. The moment the golden True Vitality collided with the silver Righteous Force, the silver Righteous Force instantly disintegrated. Nearly twenty million points of combat power burst out like a torrent, all of it surging into Yarrow's muscles and bones. It crushed all of Yarrow's ribs without any hindrance, and the huge force caused his internal organs to tremble. Finally, it penetrated Yarrow's body and all of it poured onto the ground.

The originally flat jade ring ground instantly caved in, forming a huge pit that was nearly a hundred meters wide. After all, jade ring stone was a material that was hard and durable, which was why it was used to carry spaceships at the harbor. When a spaceship weighing tens of thousands of tons landed, it would usually only leave a small scratch.

Yarrow spat out a mouthful of blood and instantly fainted.

Everyone who saw this scene was instantly stunned.

"Is this a dream?" Some of them even pinched their faces. They felt that this scene was too unreal.

After all, Yarrow was a powerhouse with a bounty of more than a hundred million Universe Credits. His crew was considered one of the top ten overlord crews in the entire Border River. However, Yarrow had been defeated by a newbie like Gu Ding in less than twenty minutes.

Benji and Annie quickly retreated from the battle when they saw this scene.

"Everyone stop!" Benji was the crew's second-in-command. Hence, the Marauders stopped what they were doing as soon as he spoke.

In fact, more than thirty of their fifty-odd crew members had already been knocked out by the combat robots. The rest of them were barely holding on.

Seeing that the Marauders had stopped, Robert ordered all the robots to stop as well.

Ayesha also pulled Biggie back to Gu Ding's side.

"As the second-in-command of the Marauders, I admit that we've lost this battle." Benji's expression was very ugly because he saw that many of the spectators around them had recorded the entire scene. After he shouted for the battle to stop, more people began to record the video.

"Gu Ding in charge, I hope that we can end this farce peacefully. We, the Marauders, are willing to offer some material compensation to express our apologies. We also hope that you can return our captain to us in one piece. " Benji humbled himself and bowed to Gu Ding. He had also seen Gu Ding's powerful combat effectiveness and was a little worried that Gu Ding would snap Yarrow's neck if he was unhappy.

Neptune checked Yarrow's physical condition and secretly whispered into Gu Ding's ear, "This kid's breathing is a little weak, but his breathing is steady. Although his heartbeat is a little weak, he should be able to hold on for at least three to four hours before he's in danger. I think you can let Lili negotiate and sell him for a good price. "

Gu Ding nodded. Neptune immediately woke Lili up. "Lili, the battle is over. Gu Ding has a hostage. He's the enemy's captain. Sell him for a good price!"

Lilliath took off her metal hat and shook her hair. Then, she saw the unconscious Yarrow. "Looks like this guy is their boss. Good job, Gu Ding! "

Lilliath patted Gu Ding on the shoulder and walked to Gu Ding's side. She crossed one arm in front of her chest and put the thumb of her other hand to her mouth. She smiled at Benji. "How much do you think your boss is worth?"

Benji was put in a difficult position when he heard the question. If he quoted a high price, the other party would definitely ask for a higher price. However, if he quoted a low price, it would not look good for his boss with so many people filming. "My dear lady, please don't make things difficult for us. Our boss is naturally priceless to us. The key is how much he's worth to you, my lady."

"How much is his bounty?" Lilliath asked even though she already knew the answer.

"One hundred and eighty million Universe Credits," Benji answered the question honestly.

"In other words, if we send his head to the Federal Government, we can get one hundred and eighty million Universe Credits. However, we don't like dealing with people from the Federal Government. " Lilliath shook her head. "You attacked us first because of this Golden Eagle, didn't you? How about this, you compensate us for the price of a Golden Eagle. Our ship is second-hand, so we won't ask for one billion Universe Credits. According to the second-hand price, eight hundred million! "

Gu Ding raised his eyebrows when he heard Lilliath's exorbitant demand. If it were him, he would probably ask for three to four hundred million, which was almost twice Yarrow's bounty. However, Lilliath asked for eight hundred million straight away.

"We don't have that much money." Benji's expression was ugly, and so were the faces of the people behind him. "To tell you the truth, when Kohld Blood kidnapped our ship's doctor, he also took a lot of valuable things."
