Chapter 172 - Poison Gas
Chapter 172 - Poison Gas
Inside the auction room, the search for the telekinetic-user ended abruptly as the battle between the various families against the Abestel family and Metti group entered full swing.
Weapons were drawn, guns were fired.
"F*ck, f*ck, f*ck! Why are we fighting against all these top families with the Abestel family?! Where is the boss?!"
"I don't know! But if you want to live, stick close to the Abestel family's men!"
The Metti group's men were like a bunch of headless chickens. Without the direction of their missing boss, they had no idea what to do.
They could only follow the Abestel family's lead and fight back with their firearms, keeping the other high-level hunters from drawing close to them.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bullets flew across the room while ice shields were conjured to block them!
Suddenly, an invisible trace of mental force compelled a man to point his assault rifle in the direction of the exposed corner before firing!
"Where are you firing?! You're wasting bullets!" A man with buckteeth immediately reprimanded furiously.
"I-It's not me!" Albion's victim cried.
"F*ck, if it isn't you, then is it your donkey?!" The buckteeth man rolled his eyes.
"It's the telekinetic-user…! I think…?!"
Albion's victim was exasperated, but the person had no other way of explaining despite being treated like an idiot.
Fwoosh~!
Suddenly, the entire auction room was sprayed with noxious gas before several unprepared hunters took a few whiffs of it and had immediate changes in their expression.
"Be careful! The gas is poisonous!"
"Dammit, who is using such underhanded tricks?!"
The various families and their people were furious for an answer, but it was not hard to guess after discovering the Abestel family's subordinates wearing gas masks.
"Dammit, it's the Abestel family!"
"The f*cking Abestel family was behind it!"
The preparedness of the Abestel family was conclusive evidence that they were behind the underhanded attack.
Suddenly, many people felt weak before dropping down to their knees with shocked faces—whilst under the barrage of the Abestel family's subordinates surrounding them!
"Impossible! I didn't breathe in the poison gas! How can I still be affected by the poison?!"
"What an overbearing poison! It can invade our pores to infect us!"
Once the hunters quickly realized the reason, they used their special abilities to ward off the poison gas.
However, it was already too late!
The poison had already invaded their systems and left them in weakened states while the weaker hunters below level 20 were directly immobilized, unable to battle!
"Fritz Abestel! I want your life!"
Gavino Vinci directly tore down the wall to barge into VIP booth no.2 with several subordinates before lunging straight at Fritz Abestel with his grade-3 dagger.
Cling!
Fritz Abestel stood upright with a calm look, his gas mask on, before casually receiving Gavino Vinci's attack head-on with his grade-4 sword.
Bang!
Fritz Abestel slightly exerted his strength with a single stomp and lashed out with his sword before Gavino Vinci was immediately sent flying back into his subordinates!
"Young Master Gavino!"
"Catch the young master!
The subordinates caught Gavino Vinci in a panic before the person gazed back at Fritz Abestel with an ugly look.
"To challenge me, your strength would need to be at your father's level at least! Just accept your death!" Fritz Abestel took a sudden leap forward.
"Protect the young master!"
The four subordinates immediately stood in front of Gavino Vinci bravely with their grade-2 weapons.
Puchi!
"Ahhh!"
Nevertheless, their inferior weapons shattered, and their bodies were slashed into several pieces by Fritz Abestel.
"Bastard!"
Gavino Vinci gnashed his teeth angrily, feeling pained for the loss of his subordinate who protected him with their lives.
"Young Master Gavino, allow us to assist you!"
Reinforcements from other families quickly flocked in the VIP booth with haste, but their heavy breathings showed clear signs of their weakened bodies due to the poison gas.
"With the states that you are in, do you think that having more of you will be enough to defeat me? Come!" Fritz Abestel smirked wickedly with a hint of madness in his eyes.
…
"F*ck!"
After Mr. Reiner was grazed by a stray bullet outside the auction house, following several more shots firing their way, his expression quickly turned grave.
"We've been found out! Shoot them now!"
"Yes, Mr. Reiner!"
Once the order was given, the Bear King and Leopard King's people fired their rocket launchers at the Eastern Allure Hotel, targeting its supporting pillars.
However, Mr. Reiner's men targeted the exposed auction room and caused his veins to protrude on his foreheard immediately.
"Why the f*ck are you aiming at the people in the auction house?!" Mr. Reiner barked furiously at the stupid thugs, causing them to be stunned.
"But you said to shoot them…"
"I was talking about the plan's target, dumbass!"
…
"Incoming rockets!"
Inside the auction room, a hunter quickly warned after discovering the several rockets flying their way.
Many hunters immediately scattered while few skilled marksmen directly intercepted the rockets with flying knives.
Boom!
However, a few still slipped past them and exploded!
Several immobilized hunters were unable to evade nor fend for themselves and ended being swallowed into the flames of the explosion!
"F*ck! We are being targeted by enemies outside the auction house!
"It was must be the Otaku Terrorists! Immediately send some men over to eliminate them!" Godfrey Newman laid down the order before coughing a purplish face.
Boom! Boom!
Rumble!
Several more distant explosions were heard amidst the heavy fighting and gunshots before several quick-witted people had abrupt changes in their expressions.
"People are attacking the Eastern Allure Hotel beside the auction house! They want to flatten us with its immense weight!"
"We need to leave the vicinity of the auction house immediately!"
…
Meanwhile, Albion sat back inside the VIP booth and watched the show with Little Wuxin and Little Sally beside him.
At the same time, an invisible barrier could be seen preventing the poison gases from coming close to their bodies.
"Are the two of you scared?" Albion casually asked.
"Afraid!"
"Very!"
At his questions, the two nodded vigorously while jumping at every sudden explosion going off in the auction room.
"Don't worry.. While I am around, no harm will befall you two," Albion assured calmly.
