Superman Termination Manual - Chapter 289

Chapter 289: Chapter 187: A Deadly Encounter with Gastella (Part 3)_3

At that moment, Ke Xiaomo revealed only a pair of eyes from the shadows, quietly gazing through the cafe window at the Deception Puppet and Gastella seated by the window.

“The girl in the wheelchair is the exact same one from the photo that Dice Monster sent me. So, she is the one spreading the parasites in this city?”

He watched the red-haired girl in the wheelchair inside the cafe, thinking to himself.

If nothing unusual happened later, he planned to enter the cafe and capture the two players conversing inside, and if possible, leave them alive, since there was much he wanted to ask them.

However, interrogation was something better left to Ke Yinzhi. Ke Xiaomo was only skilled in the art of killing, not in tormenting others. He disliked seeing others suffer, so he mostly aimed to kill with a single stroke.

But his thoughts were cautious, since Dice Monster had mentioned the possibility of encountering people from the “Blood Clan Hunter” organization, he couldn’t afford to be careless.

It’s possible that the Blood Clan Hunters were lurking inside the cafe or maybe en route to it.

Only after knowing their full details did Ke Xiaomo plan to make his move. Ninja, emphasized on the ‘patience’. Before grasping the situation, maintain patience, be cautious, wait for the perfect moment, ensuring one hundred percent certainty of beheading the enemy. This is the rule of the Ninja Sect.

Yet, in the next instant, a streak of light, like an arrow, whizzed past Hong Ge Food Street, piercing through the cafe’s glass window, stabbing one of the players amidst the shower of glass shards that exploded like rain.

An arrow?

It came from the six o’clock direction.

Ke Xiaomo furrowed his brows and quickly retracted his eyes back into the shadow after drawing a conclusion in his mind.

Immediately after, he morphed into a bird-like shadow that blasted over the surfaces of walls.

In just a few seconds, he found the source of the arrow: it was the fifth floor of a nearby abandoned factory.

As the shadowy figure of Ke Xiaomo flew into the factory, attaching to an abandoned machine shaking with patchy light and shadows on the fifth floor,

his pupils instantaneously reflected three figures.

On a pile of scrap metal and machinery, the three figures were positioned at various heights.

Sitting at the top was a woman clad in a light green raincoat, wearing a hood, with a giant bow in her hands and gripping three arrows;

Below her was a man dressed in a denim jacket and suit trousers, wearing a cowboy hat, long hair cascading behind, sporting a beard. He held two silver long-barrel guns in his hands;

And at the very bottom sat a man about two meters twenty tall, with black hair and eyes, a muscular build almost knotted together–a “giant”.

The giant wore a tank top and loose shorts and was sitting at the base of the pile of parts, casually wiping a massive sword.

“This must be the ‘Blood Clan Hunters’ that Dice Monster mentioned, they don’t look Asian. Why would they come to this city?”

Ke Xiaomo observed these three figures, thinking to himself.

At the same time, he could directly surmise that the archer woman and the two-meter-tall giant were probably not weak, as for the cowboy man’s strength, that was still unknown.

First, the archer woman, who had managed to hit a player inside the cafe from a hundred meters away; then this giant, from his appearance alone, it’s apparent how abnormally strong he is.

At that moment, the giant spoke in English, “How’s it going, Lin Ke?”

“Hit him.” The raincoat archer woman named “Lin Ke” also replied in English, “The player Sisteruo met seems not to be very skilled. My arrow was slow enough, I didn’t use my full strength to spare his life.”

“So, we’re taking this player back now?” asked the cowboy man.

“Yes, Howard, go and check on it.” said the giant.

The cowboy man named “Howard” rubbed his head, complaining, “Such a hassle, Flint. Why don’t you go yourself?”

Flint replied, “Quit the chatter.”

Speaking of which, have you guys felt something off just now? It seemed like something entered the factory,” Lin Ke paused, then changed the tone, “It’s nearby.”

Ke Xiaomo, on hearing this, was slightly shocked, thinking, “I’ve been discovered?”

“Of course, I noticed, and I wanted to surprise him. It’s no fun now that you’ve mentioned it.”

As he spoke, the cowboy man suddenly lowered his hat brim and fired a bullet glowing with pale blue flames from his silver gun toward an abandoned machine inside the factory.

In a flash, Ke Xiaomo’s figure sprang out of the shadows, avoiding the incoming pale blue bullets.

The moment the bullet hit the abandoned machine, violent blue flames erupted like a demon unleashing its claws, instantly engulfing the machinery, leaving a scorched trail on the ground.

“Being able to detect me, their skills are indeed not ordinary. Should I try exchanging a few moves with them…”

Ke Xiaomo slightly crouched, ready to flee into the shadows and escape from the ground at any moment.

Flint, Lin Ke, and Howard simultaneously looked towards this uninvited guest in a black ninja suit, face covered with a metal ninja mask.
