Chapter 121: Chapter 110 Do You Understand? _2
"Big Brother Taff, I know who that guy is, he's probably the Outsider rumored to have some connection with Young Master Sun."
Upon hearing about Young Master Sun, Taff was taken aback, but he scoffed at the mention of an Outsider.
"Connected with Young Master Sun? Have you lost your minds? Does doing a favor by completing a task count as having connections? Fools, waving a big flag to scare you all."
A look of mockery spread across Taff's face, the part not covered by his boxing headgear.
"I was received by Young Master Sun himself when I arrived, but you don't hear me claiming to have connections with him, do you? Invoking a person of high rank's name as if it's candy, and you took it seriously."
At this point, a look of realization also appeared on Taff's face.
"Oh, so it's because of him that you have the guts to refuse me? Interesting. If he really shows up, I'll break his limbs and see if Young Master Sun will punish me for his sake."
Just then, the roar of a motorbike grew louder as it approached.
Accompanied by the sound of drifting, Tao Yu pulled up in front of the convoy, stopping right beside Panda.
He then looked up and saw Taff standing alone in the middle
"Brother Panda, is that him?"
Just as Panda nodded, Taff on the other side gestured towards Tao Yu.
"Come take a look, kid. You've got a pretty face; you don't think that by flaunting it, you'll catch the eye of the nobility, do you?"
Looking at the other's peculiar gaze and expression, Tao Yu suddenly felt a bit nauseated.
This was eerily similar to that Lizard guy's look, but damn, this Taff is a man!
Seeing Taff beckoning, Tao Yu gestured Panda to stay quiet and walked forward.
"Wait a second, this guy is different, as long as he doesn't kill you, I'm afraid Young Master Sun won't say a thing."
Panda hurriedly tried to hold back Tao Yu.
But Tao Yu's shoulder trembled slightly with strength, causing Panda's fingers to go numb and release their grip.
"I have a measure of it."
With that casual shake, not only did Panda feel a numbness in his palm, but Taff's facial expression also became more solemn, and he said with a touch of surprise,
"Strength? Interesting."
Then, watching Tao Yu approach, with a somewhat playful expression, he said,
"Kid, you don't think that mastering a technique of strength makes you remarkable, do you?"
"Really taking the nobles' approachability for granted, as if it were license for your own insolence..."
Watching Tao Yu rapidly approach, Taff laughed heartily and lifted his hand towards him,
"It might be impressive in the Outer City but, in the Inner City..."
Taff's hand turned into a claw, aiming to lock onto Tao Yu's shoulder.
It seemed like a simple grab, but combined with his footwork and rhythm, it was particularly subtle.
Tao Yu had to either disrupt his rhythm and retreat hastily or be caught under the grip of the claw.
But Tao Yu didn't pause for a moment; his hand turned into a tiger's claw, and with a sudden side step, he brushed past the claw strike, directly reaching back towards his attacker.
Power exploded from his feet, strength burst forth.
The cement pavement cracked, with pieces flying!
The sudden burst of speed genuinely startled Taff. Is this an Outsider?
But before he could adjust, a sudden tiger's roar resounded in his head.
As if a fierce, vibrant tiger was pouncing directly at him, his entire field of vision filled with tiger shadows.
The claw hadn't arrived, but the roar came first, pure thoughts driven by the Fist Intent, completely overwhelming Taff before even making contact!
To the bystanders, there was just a faint sound of a gust of wind accompanying the claw strike, and then they saw Tao Yu's claw smash hard onto Taff's face.
Strength erupted, instantly splashing blood.
While Taff's head was protected by a boxing headgear-like Yuan Force item, his entire face appeared torn, drenched in blood revealing white bone, the eyes turned into bloody holes.
The entire man fell backwards.
Tao Yu casually tossed the eyeball he plucked out onto the ground, shaking off the blood on his hand with the vibration of his strength.
Ignoring the shock of the others, he drew his AT200 from behind his back, raised the muzzle, and started spraying bullets towards the metallic woman in body armor and her team behind her.
Ratatat~
Blood sprayed wildly, screams rose and fell in succession.
There were a few stray counter-shots fired haphazardly into the air.
But they were all meaningless!
[Intuitive Shooting - Modified]+[Basic Shooting - Modified], combined with the AT200's AP (Armor-Piercing) bullets, instantly resulted in a bloodbath.
"What?"
The woman clad in the metal armor had not anticipated that Temor would be taken down with just one encounter!
Her shock caused her to be half a beat slow when it was her turn to fire.
She could only barely manage to draw the short knife from her waist and hold it out horizontally for defense.
Her mind was racing.
"AT200, probably armor-piercing bullets, damn it! I can't get hit too many times..." Discover hidden tales at m,v l'e|m-p| y r
As this thought flashed through her mind, she was continuously retreating, trying to take cover behind the truck.
But by then, a bullet had already struck the blade of her knife.
Dang~
It felt like a heavy hammer striking her head, as if she was being torn apart.
It was as though she was trapped inside a giant bell, being struck repeatedly.
The Shadow Force attached to the bullet erupted like splashing ink, even the tough knife blade was left with a black crack.
Paired with the armor-piercing bullets, the second and third shots followed in quick succession!
Klang~
The knife blade shattered, the bullet struck her forehead, leaving a crack on her armor as well!
"No!"
Despite the tearing pain in her head and seeing double, she still let out a final cry of despair.
Pu-chi~
The subsequent bullets tore through the armor, drilling directly into her skull...
It was just because of her initial shock, a half beat's slow reaction to the first shot, that there was no aftermath!
She was instantly killed by the spray of gunfire!
Even a fully armed Inner City Pioneer met this fate, let alone the others who were powerless to fight back.
As the gunfire ceased, and the sound of empty casings falling was heard,
Tao Yu casually ejected the magazine and inserted a new one.
Then he methodically loaded bullets into the empty magazine, one by one.
He turned to look at his own team and casually pointed at his eye, then at Taff who had been concussed and was still twitching, and said
"He's not dead yet. One by one, you all go. No one gets left out, understand?"
Witnessing Taff struck down by Tao Yu in one hit, and the team decimated in less than a minute,
Everyone left, including Panda, was nodding their heads incessantly like pecking chickens.
"Understood! We understand completely! Boss Tao, rest assured, the rest will be arranged by me..."
Panda immediately pulled out his gun and fired two shots at Taff's legs, then turned back with a malicious grin and said
"We're all complicit in today's incident. The boss is merciful for sparing our lives. Don't be ungrateful..."
The crocodile man also quickly stepped forward to deliver the second finishing blow, and also turned to roar
"What are you waiting for? Want to die, is that it?"
Even Qimen, who was lying on the ground, propped himself up with his hands and crawled over rapidly, aided by his Mechanical Arm, letting its blade stab into Taff.
Then, looking up at Tao Yu, he added
"Boss Tao, rest assured. Taff's family is indeed powerful in the Inner City, but collectively, we three families are not weak either. We're all in the same boat."
"In the Abyss, death is normal,"
Panda kept a watchful eye on the others, urging them to step forward while also reassuringly addressing them.
If Tao Yu was an Inner City person, he wouldn't really have anything to fear! Everyone knew their own limits.
But with an Outsider acting so ruthlessly and not knowing the situation in the Inner City, he was afraid that caution would lead to eliminating everyone present.
That would be a truly wrongful death...
No need to eliminate us, in the Abyss a few deaths are manageable!
In Floating City, many have died in the Abyss, not to mention a new generation from the Inner City?
After all, it's all just a matter of relying on good talent, a decent background, and having access to more resources—that's all. Together, we're not inferior, and not many would go to great lengths to avenge a dead person...
