I Spread my Genes to Level Up in the Apocalypse

Chapter 22: Ray vs King

"If you can't get out, do you think I have no other choice?" a sneer appeared on King's face as he closed his eyes, assuming a strange position.

His eyes were determined, and a sense of confidence engulfed him as he lightly struck with a palm.

Boom!

The air seemed to ripple like a stone thrown in a peaceful pond, with his hand as the epicenter covering the entire place and even more.

"Got you."

King snapped open his eyes with a smile and lightly aimed the gun and shot.

The bullet tore through the air as it travelled, completely piercing the wall, revealing a hole where the yellow rays of the sun came.

"Hmph," King stepped on the ground hard, and the same vibration was producing ripples.

Bang!

Another gunshot rang in the air, and another hole appeared in the walls where the rays of the sun fell on the room again.

"If you don't come out even now, then you will face the consequences." King said lightly.

While his nose twitched.

"I definitely hit the target, and the smell of blood came as well, however, he is still walking so fast?" his mind was churning rapidly. "Is the person an awakener as well?"

Just then, he heard a voice come from the door.

"Alright, don't shoot, we can talk."

Then, under his eyes, he saw a black-haired man walk inside the room with his hand up and his left shoulder still bleeding from the gunshot.

"Are you Ray?"

"Long time no see, King." Ray said casually with a poker face.

"Haha, it's really you Ray. How is life going for you?" King said with his eyes flashing in a strange light.

"I am fine." Ray ambiguously replied, not even flinching when the gun was pointed at him.

"Hmm," a thoughtful expression appeared on King's face. "Did you kill my subordinate?"

"Why do you need to know that?"

King's eyes narrowed to a sliver, however, when his gaze fell on the wound of the bullet, his body froze involuntarily.

The bullet wound that was causing bleeding on his shoulder seemed to have disappeared, and the bullet was in the ground.

"Haha, Ray, you are a talented individual, go away from here. I don't want to mess with you." King smiled.

"Okay." Ray nodded his head.

But when he turned around, Ray heard a deep voice.

"By the way, did you really kill my subordinate?"

"Yes." Ray said, feeling the overwhelming killing intent of the man with a sigh.

Almost reflectively, he dodged to the side, and in his initial place, a bullet came.

"I would have let you go if you didn't kill my subordinate, but since you dared to kill them, then you must die." King's expression became apathetic.

"Only I can kill my own subordinate."

Bang!

Bang!

The gunshots echoed in the room for a moment before he ran out of ammunition, however, King's expression slightly changed.

Ray was standing tall and proud with two bullets, one side of his leg and one in his chest. Any normal person would be dead by now, however, he stood as if nothing could faze him.

"My physique is six times more powerful than an average male adult, and my body's natural regeneration is also naturally higher, that's probably why I can stand bullets."

Ray stood calm, however, countless thoughts had already flashed in his mind.

He took out the machete that was in his back with a determined expression.

King was the nickname of this big guy who was about 213 cm tall.

Even though Ray was not too small, standing at around 183 cm, compared to this guy, he was still looking like a baby.

Actually, he had some interaction with this guy when he was in the military, not as a friend but as a foe.

He still remembered that day when he was on a mission to capture him after he broke the handcuffs with his raw strength and ran away.

Imagine the terrifying strength of this guy. If they didn't have guns, then they would have been slaughtered alive by this monster already.

Now Ray needed to face this gorilla, and he had guns too.

Honestly, he was nervous as well, with his leg trembling.

Even if he closed the distance, fighting him in close combat was still a difficult choice.

"No, I am stronger, I am smarter, I am better than him!"

Ray took a deep breath to calm down his chaotic thoughts.

"Did you, brat, really think I was scared of you?" King smirked with an amused smile on his face.

"I used to eat your kind for breakfast. Just because you have awakened doesn't change the fact."

Ray's expression sank slightly before returning to calm. King accurately caught the expression, which made his smirk even wider.

But even then, he didn't move for close combat. Instead, he took out a rifle from his back and aimed it at Ray.

"Baba booey, bitch."

Ray's expression sank further.

Bang!

The rifle was even more terrifying than the Glock-19, but luckily his speed was still able to keep up. As long as Ray could predict the moment of King's hand, then he would be able to dodge it.

Just as the bullet was about to reach him, he had already ducked and moved forward with a ferocious expression.

King frowned as he shot two more shots.

Bang!

Bang!

The two shots were accurately dodged by Ray, however, in the third shot, his previous wound acted, causing him a moment of pain because of his high body movement.

In that few seconds of pause, the third bullet grazed his skull.

Ray broke out in cold sweat, his expression condensed and grave.

With just a few steps, he was able to reach King and swung his machete.

"Hmph," King just had a disdainful expression as he threw the gun, his hand forming a palm that shot towards Ray in an instant.

Ray's expression became weird because of the palm, he could feel the air somehow become heavy and he found it suffocating.

Under this palm of King, Ray found it oppressive to even move.
