Chapter 236: Killing one person a step
Gunshots could be heard in the sky above the heart of the lake. It reverberated in the ancestral hall that was sacred to Lou Family.
Be it the people here to see the fun or the warriors here to watch the show. Or Lou Xiaoling, who was eating snacks now on the floor. Or the younger brother Lou Xiaohai who was looking on and teasing or big brother Lou Xiaofeng. Or Lou Zhengxiao, who was chanting while holding the Buddhist beads, they all looked at the motionless and headless body, and they couldn’t react.
Ye Zhongming didn’t place the gun down at all. It was as if the person who killed wasn’t him. He walked forwards slowly, and he walked while aiming at Lou Xiaofeng, who was closest to him.
Peng!
The second shot. Lou Xiaofeng, who a second ago was looking at his younger brother, who died now, was the same as him. His head exploded, and he lay bloodied on the ground. n0velusb.c0m
The difference was that this time the Lou Family saw clearly.
“Kill him!”
One of the uncles stood up and pointed at Ye Zhongming, about to take his third step.
Only then did the Lou Family come to their senses, and those warriors pulled the trigger.
A transparent barrier wrapped Ye Zhongming’s body. The bullet landed on it and gave out an eye-catching white light.
Ye Zhongming naturally wouldn’t leave Meng Lin’s Protection Energy Barrier lying there. That fellow was already dead. Even if he was alive, such equipment was a waste on him.
The barrier was excellent defensive equipment using a white ring as a medium. In his last life, survivors often used this thing as a bullet shield.
The user’s mental energy would activate the energy barrier. Each time one was attacked, one would consume a certain amount of mental energy based on the strength of the attack. But the attack couldn’t exceed the defensive limit of the barrier. If not, it would get broken.
Ye ZHongming used the Flame Blade to attack Meng Lin. That fellow also used the barrier, but it shattered shortly. That was because the Flame Blade’s attack strength was above the upper defensive limit of the ring.
The bullet’s strength wasn’t as high as the stacked attack of Flame Blade and Moon Edge. It hit the barrier and only gave out a white light. Each assault rifle bullet would cause his mental energy to drop by five.
Meng Lin was wasting a treasure as it was impossible for him to eat a Brain Bug. Moreover, Ye Zhongming had many jobs, so his mental energy was high. Because he had a low-level giant bloodline, this thing would make Meng Lin a living target. In intense battles, it would lose its effect. But Ye Zhongming was different. He was agile, and he had high mental energy. One had to hit him while he was moving quickly to break this shield. This was hard to do.
But Ye Zhongming didn’t plan to dodge at all. Today he was going to wipe out Lou Family.
Peng.
Ye Zhongming fired a third bullet. Lou Xiaohai mocked his brother and fought with him to get the next two-star potion. Even if he dodged, his head was still hit. He died on the same day as the brother that he disliked.
“I will kill you!”
He opened his eyes when the first son was killed, got up when the second died, and roared when the third was dead. Lou Zhengxiao had gone mad.
He didn’t expect to witness his three sons dying simultaneously one day. As a father, there was also nothing he could do.
Cruel?
Right, it was very cruel. But this was the apocalypse. When you offended others, you had to be prepared to get destroyed. The apocalypse was different from peacetime. Karma was a real thing. If you won, it was because you were skilled; if you lost, you were not skilled enough. You couldn’t blame others.
If Ye Zhongming couldn’t charge onto the island, then his subordinates would just get killed one after another. His base would get occupied, and people would laugh at him. If he were lucky, he would die quickly; if he were not, he would get tortured.
This was reality.
Maybe Ye Zhongming pitied other humans because he felt that if they wanted to solve the mysteries, he needed the support of others.
But this didn’t mean that other humans could take advantage of him. It didn’t mean that they could offend him without paying the price!
That wasn’t his principle.
He could allow humans to flip open the apocalypse, but if others weren’t on the same side as his faction and him, he wouldn’t hold back and wipe out those who dared to block his path.
No matter who it was!
Since Lou Family dared to offend him, they would have to face his rage. If they couldn’t take it, then they would all die.
There was nothing unfair. That was because Ye Zhongming was alone. He was at far more significant risk than Lou Family. If he made a mistake, he would be a dead person.
At this moment, a giant claw appeared in the sky and slapped down at Ye Zhongming. This yellow claw covered the sky above, and there was an intense sound of wind whistling.
Ye Zhongming’s pupils constricted, and he kept the energy barrier. He used a wooden stick to replace it.
Staff of Nature! Water Bottle Protection!
A female figure appeared around Ye Zhongming. Those bullets shot into her body like they shot into the water and became slow before they fell to the ground. The exquisite bottle was so gentle as it hit that giant claw.
Hong!
There was an instant explosion, and the entire hall was shaking.
The claw disappeared, and that female figure dimmed, but it was still protecting Ye Zhongming.
Peng!
A 4th gunshot was fired, and the uncle that first called for him to be killed was attacked.
Ye Zhongming took his 4th step, and a few dozen spear shadows stabbed the blue figure.
Lou Family’s spear technique shocked him for the first time today.
With the lead of several grey spears, those spear shadows were solid and no weaker than guns. It seemed like this Lou Family did have some trump cards.
As for that claw, it was a skill called Heaven Covering Qilin Claw. It was strong, and Ye Zhongming didn’t expect it to appear on the body of a two-star evolved.
Water Bottle Protection finally shattered. The Lou Family members were bloodthirsty, and they wanted to kill the guy who killed a person with every step he took. But when they saw the situation, they all stopped.
A black gun was pointed at their family head.
