Chapter 261: 149. This is a pot of delicious thick porridge!
He had to slink back to the General Church.
So he kept enduring.
But now, it was no longer necessary!
Once the holy war began with the artillery, the Blade Demon would appear on the battlefield.
Sooner or later, it was bound to appear!
Might as well appear now!
"Roar!" The Blade Demon let out a roar. Bode sensed it instantly and turned to confront it, only to see the Blade Demon moving at incredible speed. Its back flashed with metal, and flames unexpectedly erupted from it.
Zhou Shaoyang had modified an ion accelerator on Blade Demon’s back, enabling sudden bursts to instantly enhance its speed.
A cold, sharp long blade was swung at Bode, and as Bode dodged sideways, another blade aimed for his throat.
Intuition told Bode that his muscular body could withstand bullets, but facing these unknown-material blades, he might not be able to resist. The creature’s power was terrifyingly immense, so Bode didn’t take it head-on; he used his metal arm to block single-handedly!
Bang!
A massive force made Bode feel like he had been hit head-on by a truck. The blade struck his metal arm, sparking brilliantly.
He swung a sonic-boom punch at Blade Demon’s chest, and the extraordinary force sent it flying. The Blade Demon, agilely rotating several times in midair, landed steadily. Bode looked at his blooded fist, with scarlet blood slowly dripping down.
A large gash was cut open on his fist.
Although the wound quickly scabbed over and healed almost instantly, it still made Bode feel uneasy.
When his fist struck Blade Demon’s chest, several sharp blades suddenly grew from the previously empty chest.
It directly pierced through Bode’s fist.
The Flesh and Blood Calamity could strengthen its body, rapidly repairing muscle density and body damage. Though it wasn’t a major injury, it showed Bode how troublesome this entity could be.
He was not afraid of this blade-filled creature, but to subdue it would take quite an effort.
Fortunately, the entire battlefield was intense, but it seemed the Apocalypse Society only had this one Blade Demon.
No overly powerful individual strength.
In this case, under the efforts of his sub-commanders, they’d break them one by one; along with the personal abilities of the security squads and Tasting Commerce Association’s armed personnel, they could quickly clear out these peripheral ordinary tokens.
By then, when reinforcements arrived, this Blade Demon would be nothing to fear.
Zhou Shaoyang had already fled to a safe place, hiding behind a rock, noticing what Bode might be thinking, a sinister smile emerged from his face.
"Deputy Director Bode, you must be thinking your men could quickly solve my followers, right? You have helpers, but damn it, don’t I?"
Bode suddenly saw Zhou Shaoyang pull out another flare gun from his pocket aiming at the sky, and at this moment, Bode’s heartbeat quickened.
Bode suddenly remembered something.
Bill Hawke mentioned there was a traitor among the sand bandits... The fighting was so chaotic, the war came so quickly they forgot about this immediately!
"Not good!"
Just as Bode was about to warn his brothers who were at a disadvantage, the Blade Demon struck faster. Its body turned into a cold light, fiercely attacking Bode.
This forced Bode to split his attention to deal with the Blade Demon, helplessly watching Zhou Shaoyang fire the signal flare into the sky.
The signal flare went up.
The second-in-command of the sand bandits, Skinning Knife, and his men Vinny had been shrinking at the back of the entire team.
Always waiting for a signal; now they saw the flare ascending. The signal finally arrived, and Skinning Knife exchanged a glance with his men, silently raising their guns, aiming at the backs of the security squad and the association’s armed members!
Rat-a-tat-tat!
When the four sub-commanders and Bill Hawke were in the front of the battlefield, engaged in hand-to-hand combat slaughtering Apocalypse Society’s followers, the gunfire sound from behind suddenly turned strange.
Bill Hawke turned his head fiercely, eyes wide with shock.
These damn sand bandits had backstabbed them!
The backstab was so unexpected!
Not only did many of the association’s armed personnel and members of the security squad get backstabbed, but even some of Lang Liefeng’s sand bandits did, too.
Lang Liefeng had an arm pierced and fled in a sorry state.
This sudden inside-and-out coordination completely disrupted all the factions’ deployments. Instantly, Black Thorn members opened fire, determined to obliterate all living forces!
Lang Liefeng hid behind a rock, looking at Skinning Knife who was grinning while firing at him, and shouted, "Fuck your mother, Skinning Knife! You dare betray me, I’m going to skin you alive!"
"Fuck you, Lang Liefeng! When there’s a pretty woman, you’re the first; when there’s a lot of stuff, you’re the first. Brothers can’t even get a sip of soup. Playing with women, we can only play with what’s left after you’re finished, the crippled. Eating food, we can only eat what comes out of your damn ass!
Making you the leader was the biggest mistake of my life, damn it, I’m going to cut your head off right now!
Brothers, you know how Lang Liefeng usually treats you. Follow me, Skinning Knife, and I guarantee you’ll have soup to sip and meat to eat!"
The sand bandits were inherently selfish and forgetful of loyalty.
Now seeing the two main forces being fought until they couldn’t lift their heads, the cowardly and death-defeating sand bandits heard Skinning Knife’s call and instantly many bandits defected on the spot.
They decisively turned their guns towards what, up until then, were their companions in the security squad and the commerce association’s armed members.
Goodness, the whole battlefield instantly turned into a complete mess.
Whether it was the security squad or the association’s armed personnel, they were seeing red, and didn’t care if the bandits beside them had defected, they shot first!
At this moment, it turned into utter chaos!
