In the darkness all around, heavily armed warriors kept appearing. Judging from the uniform protective gear and equipment, they were obviously mercenaries of the Hell Hounds. There were dozens of them.

Lucifer is the best rookie in the Crescent City mercenary industry in the 150th year of Dawn. Of course, Nobai knows this person.

It's just that the two sides have never had any interactions and no grudges. She doesn't understand why this guy came to her door.

Now that Grandma Zheng was in the opponent's hands, Nuobai didn't dare to act rashly. She pressed her palm to signal Lucifer to calm down, and then wanted to use her cell phone to negotiate with him.

However, the mobile phone was severely damaged in the explosion just now and is no longer usable.

Seeing this, Lucifer grinned and said, "Do you want to ask me, we all have no grudges in the past, why would I target you? And why do I know you live here?"

"First of all, I want to make it clear that I really have no personal grudge against you. But there is nothing I can do about it. Someone is paying a lot of money to buy your head on the dark web. If you can make good money, why not make it?"

Nuo Bai couldn't help but narrowed his eyes after hearing this.

Dark web?

Why was her information exposed to the dark web?

Where did it leak from?

Grandma Zheng's voice interrupted Nuo Bai's thoughts. She asked Lucifer tremblingly: "Who are you? Don't harass her! Otherwise I will report it to the police!"

"Report a crime?" Lucifer seemed to have heard some joke and pointed at the electronic countermeasures unit at his shoulder. "The signal has been blocked by me. Where can you report a crime?"

He continued in a joking tone: "Old woman, you seem to have a good relationship with this girl. Let me ask, do you know who she is?"

"You think I'm a bad person? You're wrong! She has chopped down more people than I have ever killed! I'm just a newbie in front of her, okay?"

Grandma Zheng's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty. She went back and forth between the sneering Lucifer and the ugly-looking Nobai for a long time. Finally, she shook her head and muttered: "No, she is a good child and cannot be a bad person."

After hearing this, Nuo Bai bit his lips and his chin trembled slightly.

"Believe it or not, I'm too lazy to say more. Anyway, she knows it." Lucifer looked at Nobai playfully and teased, "I was quite surprised when I heard that you retired."

"In this city, I have never seen any great mercenary reach your level, and finally be able to land safely and escape."

"Are these days of retirement comfortable? Taking a walk every day, raising cats, no longer having to fight with people, no longer having to worry about commissions, does it feel like a dream?"

"Don't be stupid, Nobai, from the moment you step into this business, you will be a mercenary for one day, and you will never be able to escape from this circle."

"Have you ever heard that sentence - there is only one place for the legends of Crescent City to end up, and that is the cemetery."

At this point, Lucifer put a gun to Grandma Zheng's head, looked at Nuo Bai and smiled and said, "Let's make a deal. It's very simple, your life in exchange for this old woman's life."

"You have been a mercenary for half your life, you have killed so many people, and your hands are full of sins. It is not easy to meet an elder who cares about you. You can't just ignore him, right?"

"Stand still. It will be over soon. It will be over in a few seconds. If you dare to move, I will blow her head off."

Nuo Bai gritted his teeth, feeling numb in his heart.

She could feel that there was a sniper targeting her in the dark.

Although the Crimson Rose Blood Code has a strong recovery power, if its head is directly blasted by a large-caliber bullet, it will be difficult to recover.

Fatal attacks cannot be directly received, they can only be avoided.

But Grandma Zheng is in Lucifer’s hands. If she hides, she doesn’t know what this lunatic will do.

what to do.

what to do.

The atmosphere almost solidified under the pressure, and the passage of time seemed to be infinitely stretched and became extremely slow.

Nuo Bai stood there in silence. After her identity was exposed, she didn't even dare to look at Grandma Zheng because she was afraid of seeing a pair of disappointed eyes.

Grandma Zheng's eyes were sad, silently watching this child who had been accompanying her in every possible way for many years, but who had turned into a murderer in the eyes of others.

Lucifer smiled slyly, his eyes full of amusement, as if he saw that the 500 million bounty had easily entered his pocket.

Just when the pressure was at its peak, something amazing happened.

Grandma Zheng suddenly threw her frail body at Lucifer, bumped his face with her head, and shouted: "Baby girl, run quickly!!!"

Nuo Bai felt cold. She wanted to tell Grandma Zheng not to move, but her voice, which was mute from birth, could not make any sound at all.

Lucifer's face was hit, but it was obviously impossible for an old woman to hurt him.

He casually rubbed the area on his face where he was hit, and his eyes became ferocious: "My dad has never hit me in the face."

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the bullet penetrated Grandma Zheng's head.

The old body fell into a pool of blood and finished its life.

Lucifer kicked Grandma Zheng's body away and pretended to be innocent and shrugged at Nobai: "I gave her a chance. She was looking for death on her own. You can't blame me."

Changes occurred suddenly.

White mist suddenly rose up from Nuo Bai's skin, which was a sign of convection between hot body temperature and cold air. Blood flowed rapidly throughout his body, bringing unprecedented power.

Burning blood!

As the blood temperature continued to soar, those black eyes turned into rose red, staring at Lucifer with fury, as if they wanted to tear him into pieces.

The terrifying sense of oppression made the surrounding Hellhound mercenaries take a few steps back. Only Lucifer remained firmly in place.

"Huh~" Facing Nobai who was in a state of burning blood, Lucifer seemed to have no scruples, whistled and said with a sly smile, "Come on, let me see how capable this legend of yours is."

"boom--"

In the blood-burning state, Nobai's speed surged. He broke the ground with one step and broke through the sound barrier. The violent wind pressure caused the nearby trees to break in half, and he attacked Lucifer at supersonic speed.

However, just when Nobai was in front of Lucifer in an instant, his eyes suddenly turned sharp.

She didn't know why she took the initiative to withdraw, using the powerful force brought by the burning blood to fight against the inertia.

The sudden change in the direction of the force put her body under great pressure. Her blood vessels ruptured and large bruises appeared on her body surface.

Finally, she stopped jumping back, pulled away, frowned and stared ahead.

"Bah bang bang." Lucifer clapped his hands and laughed in a teasing tone: "You discovered it so quickly? Yes, you are really good at it."

It was snowing at this time, and a snowflake fell in front of Lucifer, splitting into two halves and falling to the ground without warning.

The tiny water droplets melted from the snow hovered in the air, and after a moment they dripped in diagonal lines, causing fleeting reflections.

There's something in the air!

It was a kind of nano-steel wire that was thinner than a hair, extremely difficult to detect with the naked eye, and had extremely strong toughness. It was intertwined in front of Lucifer to form a barrier.

At the speed Nuo Bai was going at just now, if she collided directly with her, her body would be cut open without any delay and turned into a pile of broken corpses!

The other party planned the attack first, and there were countless such nano-steel wires arranged around them. Nobai did not dare to act rashly.

She activated the Crimson Rose blood code to differentiate a large number of IPS stem cells in the body into cones and rods.

These two types of cells greatly enhanced the eye's light vision, allowing her to see everything around her clearly in the dark.

Soon, all the nano-steel wires that were originally subtle and difficult to detect appeared in the eyes.

She could clearly see the white marks crisscrossing the area, and each white mark represented a nano-steel wire.

From the time he left Grandma Zheng's canteen to returning home and being bombed down, it only took a few minutes, leaving not much time for the Hellhound mercenaries to set up traps.

The nano-steel wires in their hands have not completely sealed the surrounding areas, and there are many gaps.

Nuobai spotted a gap and rushed over quickly, preparing to bypass the nano-steel wire and attack Lucifer directly.

Seeing Nobai's actions, the corners of Lucifer's mouth curled up in an imperceptible arc.

Halfway through the rush, Nuo Bai suddenly felt something foreign beneath his feet.

Her keen combat intuition made her realize it quickly.

Mines!

She used the power of burning blood to forcefully change the direction of her sprint, and immediately took evasive action to the side.

She was very fast, but the detonation time of this mine was extremely short, only tens of milliseconds, and she was unable to completely escape the explosion range.

"boom!!!"

This is a steel ball mine. After blasting, a large number of alloy steel balls spread rapidly to the surroundings, forming an airtight killing net.

Nuo Bai crossed his arms in front of his body to protect his vitals. Alloy steel balls hit his body like raindrops, opening dozens of ferocious blood arrows.

She fell heavily to the ground, splashing a large amount of blood. Before she had any room to breathe, she felt a sense of oppression coming from her side.

She rolled hard to dodge, but the place where she had fallen suddenly exploded, leaving a black bullet mark.

"Bang!" Bullet marks appeared, and the sound of shooting could be heard.

Snipers lurking in the distance also joined the battle.

Nuo Bai couldn't help but grit his teeth.

There are too many enemies around.

I don’t know how many traps they have left.

It's not good to be besieged like this.

It’s better to escape first.

Revenge must be avenged.

But if your life is lost here, everything will be in vain.

Just as Nuobai was secretly planning his escape route, he suddenly felt his heart twitching, his knees involuntarily softened, and he knelt halfway on the ground.

Her smooth forehead was covered with cold sweat, and drops slid down her cheeks. Her breathing became sharp and rapid, and her right hand unconsciously grasped the skirt of her clothes at her heart.

what happened

Why can't I breathe?

The mine steel ball just now probably didn't hit the vital point.

Even if it hits a critical point, it should be able to recover with the recovery power of Crimson Rose's blood code.

Just when Nuo Bai was puzzled, something even more shocking happened.

Even though she desperately activated her super-speed regeneration ability, the blood holes in her body that were punched by the alloy steel balls still failed to heal, and instead, strange black blood flowed out.

Crimson Rose blood code. Invalid?

wrong

Not invalid

It's another force raging inside the body, and its destructive speed exceeds the recovery power of Crimson Rose's blood code!

"Hehehe" Lucifer walked around the nano-steel wire, walked slowly towards Nuobai, and asked with a joking smile, "How does it feel to have a steel ball contaminated with python poison enter your body?"

Nuo Bai's hands tightly grasped the hem of his clothes, and the injury became more severe, and he suddenly coughed out a mouthful of black blood.

Lucifer looked at Nuo Bai as if he were looking at a dying prey: "I asked for the poison on these steel balls from a big boss in the company. He is the carrier of the "Python Poison Blood Code" and his strength is " "Exceeding the limit of intermediate level", how long will it take to be a big level higher than you. "

"Even if you are a Crimson Rose blood code bearer, you will be suppressed by this high-level python poison. Those steel balls will continue to release toxins in your body, and you will be in more and more pain."

"I tell you, stop struggling. You're so tired. Just lie down and don't move. I promise to give you a good time."

After saying this, he pointed his pistol at Nobai's head and said with a sly smile: "Bye bye, Silent Death. The 500 million bounty and the fame after killing you will all belong to me."

Before he could pull the trigger, Nobai suddenly burst into flames.

Nuobai had always maintained a burning blood state before, and had stronger physical functions than the Crimson Rose blood code carriers of the same level, which supported her to burst out her final strength in the face of death.

She held a piece of glass in her hand that had fallen from the previous explosion, and stabbed Lucifer in the throat.

Suddenly, a blazing sword light flashed.

Nuo Bai's pupils reflected flying limbs and a round of blood.

"Pfft!"

Her palm separated from her body, and blood spurted out from the broken wrist, staining the surrounding ground red.

Nuobai took a few steps back, and fell to his knees again, pressing the broken wrist tightly, and looked at Lucifer reluctantly.

Lucifer was seen holding a Tang Dao in his hand, which was the weapon she had used. It was obviously stolen from her house before.

Lucifer imitated Nobel's signature move, holding the scarlet Tang knife in his arms, wiping off the blood on it, and then put it back into the scabbard under his coat.

"Click." Tang Dao was put into its sheath and made a cold crisp sound.

He stuck out his tongue provocatively, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "I forgot to tell you, I am also a cold weapons expert."

"Your sword is very good, but it needs another owner. A cowardly mercenary who only thinks about his escape is not worthy of possessing such a top-notch weapon."

After saying that, he motioned for everyone to attack together and end Nuo Bai's life.

As soon as the Hellhound mercenary rushed forward, Nobai suddenly raised his only remaining hand high in the air.

In her palm, a group of rich blood crystals suddenly condensed.

The Crimson Rose blood code bearer not only has strong recovery power, but also controls the blood, and super-speed regeneration is just one of the abilities.

High-level carriers can have more detailed control over their own blood, including changing their characteristics and forms, etc.

At this time, the hardness of the blood crystals condensed by this ability exceeds that of metal, and the power when fired is more terrifying than bullets.

When he saw that Nobai had gathered such a large group of blood crystals in his palm, Lucifer judged what she was going to do and immediately retreated and hid in the canteen.

"Bang!" The blood crystal exploded under Nuo Bai's control, scattering into hundreds of fragments and spreading around.

The Hellhound mercenaries in the encirclement were unable to dodge and were hit by blood crystal fragments. They suddenly screamed and the scene fell into chaos.

After the blood crystal fragments settled, Lucifer climbed out from behind the wall of the canteen, pushed away a few stumbling Hellhound mercenaries, and looked around.

"Bang." He spat on the ground.

Nuo Bai had already escaped in the chaos. (End of chapter)
