Chapter 93 - Deception
David swiped his hands gently on the box. Instantly, it's component disassembled and after which it reassemble back.
But this time it formed a very light compartment backpack. Raising his eyebrows in surprise, David lifted the backpack and placed in onto his back.
The backpack instantly got a few notches flatter on his back. It was as though there was nothing in his back to begin with. It was very sleek and dark in colour as it merge from its previous color to a darker shade of black.
Making it the same as David's shirt colour.
If one saw it one might just thing it was a vest of some kind.
Xaviar's eyes flashed with a hint of greed within them when he saw this scene. This was an unexpected surprise. It seems that every loot zone was with a corresponding compartment park which means that.
In this zone, although the backpack was only a low level gadget, it was still a Gadget anyways and it has its own uses.
Noone would complain of having too much gadgets in hand.
David smiled, he didn't feel anysign of weight on his back. This was an unexpected gain. So instead of two gadgets, there was three within.
If he were to go to the high loot zones, he wondered how the backpacks in there would be like.
"Do you plan on keeping that to yourself?" Xaviar asked, directly ignoring David's question.
David indifferently glanced at him and he asked "And do you plan on stopping me?" David revolved his blood and the pressure around him began to increase, killing intent flashed in his eyes. It wasn't the first time he had killed anyway, the feeling of killing a human shouldn't be any different than the feeling he had gotten when he had killed the rat in his room back on earth.
Xaviar's expression changed when he felt the pressure. It wasn't literally a pressure in the atmosphere, it was a kind of special wave created by the brain and emitted from the body only which another body could or living organisms with brain and a body could feel.
He could guess David might want to silence him before the others came but he wasn't the least bit afraid. If someone could kill him as they wished, he wouldn't be here standing a lie at this moment.
His confidence returned and his will to do battle rose and he smiled weirdly. "I'm really not one to fight but you can't just horde the equipments all to your self, you have to learn to share."
David snorted. "As though it was your grandfather that kept it there. Why would I have to share with you?" the disdain in his tone apparent.
But in the next instant, the pressure he had been emitting receeded back and his expression softened into that of innocence.
Astonished, Xaviar casted a confused glance at David. He didn't know what just happened. But soon, he found out as the yellow bushes and tress behind him shook.
A figure bursted out from the tress and shrubs with savage expressions on his face.
"Don't you dare touch want I have set my eyes on Bronx!" Icarus voice resounded from behind but it was apparent that he ass still far behind.
Bronx didn't even bother answering to them, he swiftly moved into the location thathe had marked, expecting to see the equipments in place but he was instantly disappointed.
His eyes widened as he scanned the surroundings, he saw both David and Xaviar standing in different directions David had an innocent look on his face but Xaviar was emitting waves of one who was ready to strike.
He didn't think too deeply into the matter, he took a large stride in Xaviar's direction as he asked in a threatening tone.
He was.in no mood for any impractical nonsense. He had to get the Gadget no matter what and from there, he would advance to other loot zones. That way, he could get a few headstart above everyone else.
Winning the competition would become alot easier for him.
Xaviar frowned at the unexpected accusation, then he finally understood why David had retracted his battke waves and had an innocent look on his face.
It was a sinister plot to frame him. But he soon relaxed, If it were that easy to frame him, he also would be here.
He immediately responded "What makes you think the Gadget is in my possession? That guy had it with him."
Bronx eyes hardened as he shouted in a low voice "So you take me for a fool? If you refuse to drop the gadget. I just have to forcefully collect it from you."
He immediately made his move but before he could move, Xaviar hurriedly shouted.
"If I had it on me, why would I still be here." he said anxiously.
Bronx stopped in his tracks. He knew that Xaviar was a trickster, but if Xaviar had truly gotten hold of the Gadget, he would definitely have been long gone. As he wouldn't have waited, to trick him.
He turned his head as he looked doubtfully at the weak looking guy who seems to be still wet behind the ears, even if the guy had taken it, Xavier would undoubtedly steal it from him.
Then he turned angrily at Xaviar. "If you weren't the one who has the gadget, who else has it?"
Scrunching up his face at the accusation, Xavier said "I know he looks weak but don't underestimate him, he took my combat technique without using one to counter it." the seriousness was apparent in his tone.
Bronx paused slightly and the way he looked at David changed.
As he was about to question David, Icarus suddenly ran out from the trees with blinding speed.
His blood was boiling as he was still circulating his blood in the system.
Power filled his body, ready to explode anytime soon.
When he saw there wasn't anything left in the ground, he glared towards the two people there with him, directly neglecting David's presence.
"Who dares touch my things?" his voice was deep and was laced with a murderous tone, speaking towards Xavier and Bronx
It was apparent he was ready to kill for the Gadget and would strike anytime soon.
