My Ability Pool is Superior - Chapter 237: Crises Abound
The street was empty, with all kinds of shops smashed into a mess.
A gust of wind blew from somewhere, rolling a plastic bag along the ground.
Dao Long poked his head out from the alley entrance corner and scanned left and right, then hurriedly ran toward the residential building across the road.
While running, he shouted, “Brother Bai, take this path.”
Lu Bai was unfamiliar with many places in Chikan Bay, so following a local like Dao Long was obviously better.
Although taking these remote paths was a bit troublesome, it was still safer than walking openly on the street.
There was no choice; Chikan Bay had now turned into a battlefield.
It wasn’t just prison guards who would launch attacks; after the chaos intensified, all factions in Chikan Bay had become armed hunters.
Shops, buildings, rooftops… bullets could shoot out from these places at any time, and a moment’s carelessness would turn one into a sieve.
In the corridor of the residential building, several prison guards stood against the wall, slowly moving toward the rooms inside to check for any oversights.
But before they could take a few steps, several prison guards heard the house door behind them kicked open.
Dao Long’s figure flashed in like a ghost, quickly taking out the several prison guards; throughout the process, they didn’t even fire a single shot.
“Brother Bai, let’s go upstairs.”
After Dao Long said this in a low voice, he took the lead and ran toward the corridor.
“Wait a moment.”
Lu Bai suddenly called out to Dao Long, looking strangely at a house door nearby.
Incidentally, although the title worn by a death fighter floats above them, this anchor point is actually the death fighter’s head; as long as they tilt their head, the title floating above will shake along with it.
Right now, in Lu Bai’s line of sight, half of a colorful artistic font was repeatedly sticking out from that house door and then retracting.
It felt like the death fighter inside the door was trying hard to stick to the house door and eavesdrop on the movement in the corridor.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Bai silently walked to the front of the house door, gathering grandmaster-level internal energy fully into his right hand in a clenched fist posture.
He roared like a thunderclap from a clear sky.
“Iron Fist Breaks Wind!”
The next moment, his right fist blasted out, instantly shattering the house door into pieces, accompanied by wisps of blood mist from behind the door.
[Ding!]
[Points +1, Current Points: 58, Current Rank 1/107]
After hearing the mechanical system prompt, Lu Bai didn’t enter the room to check the situation; he turned and followed Dao Long upstairs.
One obvious fact was that since the prison guards entered, the number of death fighters had declined to a certain degree.
After all, they were students from Ojima High School; whether it was the various factions inside Chikan Bay or the prison guards outside, no one would show mercy when encountering them.
Even worse, the roads out of Chikan Bay were tightly blocked by the army.
The strength of the vast majority of death fighters wasn’t much stronger than ordinary people, so facing such a dire situation, their only choice was to find a place to hide.
Whether they could survive was completely up to luck.
And from the current situation, the luck of these death fighters trapped in Chikan Bay was clearly not very good.
Thinking of this, Lu Bai felt slightly melancholic; he could only say that he wasn’t strong enough yet to personally take out all the death fighters.
“There’s more than five squads of prison guards in the plaza ahead, and the leader is at least a senior prison guard; we can only avoid them by going this way.”
As soon as the two reached the rooftop of this residential building, Dao Long bent down, and under the cover of the several bedsheets drying there, they quietly reached the rooftop edge.
“Brother Bai, have you noticed? Over there, there, and there.”
Dao Long pointed to several directions in succession: “There are definitely snipers equipped with tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets; if you take a hit from those bullets, even a grandmaster wouldn’t feel good.”
Lu Bai looked in the directions Dao Long pointed but saw nothing wrong.
After all, his eyes hadn’t been quenched by internal energy, so in terms of vision, he was even inferior to some Houtian martial artists.
Lu Bai then nodded: “I see.”
“Brother Bai, in a bit, when I count one, two, three, we’ll jump to the rooftop opposite together.”
Dao Long tensed his muscles all over and counted down in a low voice.
……
On the solid wood desk, there were piles of empty wine bottles scattered haphazardly.
In the glass display cabinet on the right side, a large number of books were neatly placed, though they had never been touched.
The man sitting in the office chair poured himself another gulp of alcohol, making his rosacea nose, caused by years of heavy drinking, even deeper red.
Bang bang bang!
Intense knocking sounded, and two burly men, in their urgency, didn’t wait for the man with rosacea nose to open the door before violently removing the office door.
The man with rosacea nose had just lifted his butt off the cushion to open the door when he saw these henchmen had already barged in, so he sat back down heavily.
“What’s going on with you all?”
“Boss, big trouble; cops have come to our territory.”
One of the henchmen said urgently.
“Let them fight their fight; don’t provoke them. Anyway, Ojima and Nanxing Association, those top factions… wait, what did you say? Cops?!”
The man with rosacea nose was extremely shocked, sobering up more than half from the alcohol.
Having mixed in Chikan Bay for so long, he couldn’t remember how many years it had been since he last heard the word “cops.”
The henchman nodded frantically, speaking at top speed: “Yes, not Ojima or Nanxing Association people; it’s cops! Lots of cops!”
The man with rosacea nose’s expression turned serious in an instant, anxiously asking: “Do you know what’s going on? Why would cops come to Chikan Bay?”
The henchman was about to reply when he was blasted by a terrifying punch wind.
Limbs and flesh splashed everywhere, instantly turning the entire office into the scene of a perverted killing case.
The man with rosacea nose confusedly reached to touch his face, pulling off a strip of flesh.
“Ugh~”
He came to his senses and immediately hunched over, retching continuously.
Haide Prison Area Chief walked in from the gate, scanned the interior of the office, and too lazy to do it himself, waved his hand: “Only two left, whatever, capture them.”
Several fully armed prison guards rushed into the office like hungry wolves and tigers, controlling the two criminal forces members on site who were already scared out of their wits.
Haide Prison Area Chief lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth, making as if to turn and leave.
Such top-level combat power naturally wouldn’t be wasted on cleanup chores.
However, at that moment, two unusual noises came successively from the rooftop, attracting his attention.
He looked up at the ceiling for a while, then asked the man with rosacea nose, who was already half-scared silly in front of the desk: “There are people upstairs?”
The man with rosacea nose subconsciously shook his head: “Up… upstairs, there’s nothing.”
Haide Prison Area Chief was noncommittal and gave a look to the subordinate beside him, signaling him to take a few people upstairs to check.
