BXBX NOVEL Chapter 36 - 36, How Did You Do It_l
Bawudong, with his hands behind his back, turned to look at them in a calm manner.
After giving the two people and one skeleton a sweeping look, he spoke with a hint of surprise, “I truly underestimated you all, but it doesn’t matter, you’re going to die here anyway.”
It seemed that this elder of the Church of Divine Punishment didn’t have much emotional reaction to the deaths of his underlings.
Instead, he was more eager to kill a few more of his opposition.
No one responded, but the atmosphere around them began to grow increasingly tense.
The next second, the team of professionals charged towards the opposition all at once.
However, Bawudong’s speed was even more remarkable. Like a flash of lightning, he charged straight towards Autruck, his powerful, thick-leg sweeping out.
Autruck blocked with his longsword, Bang! A thunderous sound echoed as an air wave dispersed.
Under the immense force, Autruck’s body slid backwards uncontrollably for a few meters, his arms numb.
Bawudong retracted his leg, grabbed the incoming short blade with his hand, sent Basen flying, and swiftly dodged Cavina’s sweep at his midsection.
The burly man exhibited remarkable awareness and agility.
This was a stark contrast to his physical appearance.
Bang Bang Bang!
Seeing the opportunity, Wu Heng pulled the trigger. Bullets flew, splitting the air as they raced towards their target.
Maintain this posture, I don’t believe you can evade bullets.
Bawudong, who was crouching, turned his head to look, his body instantly covered in a layer of scale-like hard skin, almost as if he had put on a set of heavy armor in an instant.
Ding Ding Ding!
The bullets hit Bawudong’s body, leaving dents behind.
Seeing this, Wu Heng’s eyes instantaneously widened.
This wasn’t about the level of strength or fighting power anymore.
A body that could withstand bullets, how was that possible?
I went through all this trouble to get these bullets, and before I could fully utilize them, you’re just standing there taking them, it’s going a bit too far. The gunshot just now had infuriated Bawudong, who was in the middle of a fight.
A pair of cold eyes looked over, filled with rage and intent to kill.
He straightened his body instantly.
At this moment, Autruck once again attacked him fiercely, his longsword carrying the whistle of the wind as it slashed towards him. Bawudong dodged sideways, his back curving as his scales blocked Cavina’s attacks.
Bawudong rotated once more, swinging a straight punch towards Basen who was by the side.
Bang!
His fist smashes a window, sending stones scattering all over.
Bawudong, suspended in mid-air, grabbed two pieces of broken stones and hurled them towards Wu Heng with full force.
The stones were as fast as bullets, their whistling sound the only warning.
Wu Heng only saw his motion but couldn’t keep up with the stones. He dodged to the side instinctively but was still hit by a piece of broken stone.
His leather armor made a bang sound as if he had been firmly hit by a hammer, his body retreating several steps.
Enduring the bone-breaking pain in his chest, he once again aimed his weapon at the enemy and pulled the trigger.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The bullets fired again, leaving marks where they shattered his scales upon impact.
However, there was no substantive damage inflicted.
The trio on the main battlefield continued to engage Bawudong.
The elder’s battle power far surpassed Wu Heng’s estimation.
What profession was he in, that allowed him to grow scales on his body?
The reinforcements were taking forever to arrive.
It couldn’t possibly be that all the guards in the central district have been withdrawn, could they?
Bawudong, a giant in stature, displayed extraordinary agility in dealing with the three-person attack. However, he frequently glanced in Wu Heng’s direction, as if planning to charge over and kill him at any moment.
The attacks from the professional team kept coming, their weapons striking his scales, emitting a series of clanging sounds.
Whiz!
Bawudong charged forward with a knee strike, which hit Basen square in the chest.
Crack! Crunch!
The sound of bones breaking and mechanical locks resounding simultaneously. Basen, who was sent flying, was reeled back in by a silver metallic ring.
Under the piercing light, a silver-white handcuff linked Bawudong’s ankle to Basen’s wrist.
The sudden change made Bawudong, who was pulling back his leg, stagger momentarily.
Autruck and Cavina charged forward again, their iron swords simultaneously slashing down on top.
Clang!
Their weapons struck the scales on their opponent’s back as if striking an iron shell.
Enraged, Bawudong lifted his leg to kick Basen, who was chained to the other end of the handcuff, intending to kill the guy who was holding him down.
Just then, the illuminating light suddenly dimmed.
A falling object could be heard from above.
Bawudong instinctively looked up, his right hand forming a blade, swinging towards the sound above him.
Thud-!
It was as if he were striking a water balloon, with liquid splattering in all directions.
The next second, he felt a searing burn on his face.
As the light turned back on, Bawudong swayed his body, constantly rubbing his eyes with both arms.
“Kill him, quickly!” Basen yanked the handcuff, forcefully spreading Bawudong’s legs wide to restrict his movements.
Autruck and Cavina, with weapons targeted at the neck and skull.
Thud-!
The sound of blade penetrating flesh rang out, leaving trails of bloodstains.
Wu Heng also quickly approached, maintaining a safe distance, aimed at the head and fired.
Bang-!
Bawudong’s head jolted back, but he didn’t immediately fall.
Bang Bang Bang-!
The sound of gunfire was non-stop, with bullets raining onto his head like droplets.
[Experience gained +125.]
Bawudong’s body fell backward, and with a crash, he slouched against the corner of the wall.
Autruck didn’t let his guard down; he stepped forward to slash at the decapitated body.
Thud!
His sword cut Bawudong’s neck cleanly, sending the severed head rolling down.
It was only at this moment that they all let out a sigh of relief. Exhausted, they sat on the ground to regain their strength.
They took out their potions and drank them down.
“Captain, is there anyone else?” Wu Heng asked, leaning against the wall.
Autruck said, “With Bawudong dead, there shouldn’t be anyone else.”
“If there is, we’re going to have to run. We can’t keep fighting like this, we’ll end up martyring ourselves for the guild.”
“Mm!” Autruck grunted in acknowledgement but didn’t say much else.
At this moment, the sound of numerous footsteps echoed from the hall.
The three of them stiffened and immediately stood up, alertly watching the front.
In the dark, a torchlight was seen followed by a Cheetah making its agile appearance.
Then came Slyther, clad in leather armor with an iron sword hanging from his waist, and the leader of Black Stone Town’s guards, surrounded by a large number of soldiers.
Slyther swept his gaze over the decapitated body on the ground, his voice cold and stern, “What happened?”
Autruck pointed at the body and said, “Bawudong, Elder of the Church of Divine Punishment.”
Everyone frowned, then their faces changed dramatically.
If Bawudong was in town, then who did the ones who went out of town go to arrest?
The torches lit up the Hall of Professionals again.
The crowd that entered in a single-file was divided into several small teams, inspecting the surroundings, protecting the Town Hall and City Lord’s Mansion, as well as treating the injured and searching the crime scene.
The rescuers bandaged the wounds of the three survivors and provided medicinal and spirit potions for treatment.
After drinking some, Wu Heng was noticeably more revitalized.
At this moment, the squad inspecting the surroundings returned and reported, “Leader, Mrs. Slyther, a total of eight dead. We found no injured survivors or other enemies.”
The leader of the team furrowed his brows, looking at the wounded four. “There’s only three of you? Did you kill all of them? How did you manage that?”
