Chapter 140: Have to die
Hell beings were mostly fire elements. Although the Hell Hound was a weaker one but it also inherited this element.
The flame ripples spread outwards. They didn’t look quick but in truth, they were even faster than the speed of humans running.
The soldiers chasing Ye Zhongming were shocked when they saw a monster covered in flames appearing. When they saw it charging at them, they hesitated as they waited for orders and that meant that they lost the chance to escape.
The flame ripples spread past those soldiers that didn’t escape. Their bodies lit up. The flames were the terriying red color like the ones on the body of the hound.
Cries rang out. Those people who were lucky to flee understood the pain that those burnt were feeling.
Those cries didn’t last for too long, only a few seconds. No one could last for too long under such flames and they turned into ash, it was as if they didn’t exist in this world.
There were originally 200 people who came to stop Ye Zhongming but the flame ripple burnt over 30 right away.
The sudden attack caused many soldiers to retreat in terror. They clearly saw that an evolved wasn’t able to dodge and was burnt to death.
Even an evolved couldn’t take it so what about them? The group that tried to surround Ye Zhongming spread out because of that.
Ye Zhongming didn’t remain here as he knew that the Hell Hound couldn’t last for too long. He didn’t even bother to see what the effects of the hell hound’s flames were. He dashed beside a withering tree and pointed to summon a giant treant that charged mercilessly towards soldiers at the side.
But this wasn’t over. Ye Zhongming also pointed at a lamp and a metal monster appeared which charged in another direction.
Ye Zhongming ran while turning stone, metal, trees into summoned monsters to help him block bullets and attract attention.
Ye Zhongming paid little mental energy to summon them, the least required to give life to them. Their durability was around 5 and after being hit by a bullet, they disappeared.
But these monsters still terrified the soldiers nearby. They aimed their guns toward those monsters instead of Ye Zhongming.
He naturally wouldn’t give up such a good chance, running out of their encirclement and disappearing into the darkness.
On this side, the hell hound had burnt many people and blocked those chasing Ye Zhongming. Its eyes looked around as if it was looking down on the world. n0VeLUSb.C0m
But the humans’ attacks didn’t stop. The mental storm gathered on this hound’s body. No choice, it was like a lamp in the night sky due to the flames and was more eye catching as compared to the level two wheel. Its body was really huge too so over half of the bullets hit its body.
Although their life forms had much higher defence towards guns than humans, but when it was focused fired by hundreds of guns, the hell hound was still knocked back. One of its horns was even broken and from within there was a red liquid that flowed out from inside.
The hell hound roared in rage and started to pick up speed before jumping right into the crowd.
Even when it was injured, it was far quicker than the humans.
“Kill it, kill it!” Chef Jin and Director Wang were in the crowd. They had different weapons. Chef Jin held a thick rod with a grey glow. Director Wang held a chain that was also a grey weapon.
The two of them chased with the other evolved but bumped into this hound. They realised that the person with the two star potion had disappeared. If they couldn’t kill this terrifying monster right away, they would lose the chance to catch him.
Their eyes were red, they led the evolved to battle the hell hound.
If one had to pinpoint the hell hound’s level, it was between one star and two star evolved. But because of its flame element, it wouldn’t suffer much when it fought a two star evolved.
In terms of strength alone, if either Chef Jin or Director Wang met the hell hound, even if they weren’t eaten, they would be forced to flee.
But now that they worked together and had other evolved to help, the other soldiers were able to injure the hound. Under such a situation, they had an advantage.
The Hell Hound charged into the crowd. Like the flame ripple, it caused the humans to dodge and scream. But they slowly realised that as long as they didn’t touch its body, those flames wouldn’t hurt them.
Thus, they got more and more bold. With evolved blocking in front of them, people would get close to the fire. They attacked the crucial joints and other areas like eyes, ears and stomach. This caused the hound to pay a heavy price. In the end, it was caught off guard and was hit on the head by Chef Jin with the rod.
The hound finally ran out of energy and fell to the ground. It struggled but was unable to get up.
An evolved saw the chance and used its spear made from a steel rod to stab into its eyes, sticking it right into its head.
The Hell Hound’s body shook and the flames started to dim. That evolved smiled in glee. Although Director Wang and Chef Jin who had grey weapons were always at the front but it was an honor to get the final hit and he would be able to brag about it.
But he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was off. He glanced and saw people retreating. They were shouting something but he couldn’t hear it.
He looked around in terror and then he realised that a flame line had spread beneath his feet and had lit up his body!
Only when it died did he realise that it wasn’t that the others weren’t making a sound, he was being burnt so badly that he had lost feeling.
Seeing his men die one after another, Director Wang’s expression was really bad. The evolved that was burnt to death by the flame ripple was his men, this one was too which reduced his strength. Including himself, his side only had three evolved.
Chef Jin didn’t show any more arrogance as he knew that they were facing a common enemy. He looked at Director Wang and nodded as they continued to chase towards where Ye Zhongming fled.
One of them had to die today.
