Chapter 33: How Can I Thank You All? My Comrades-in-Arms!

This group of “villains” was really just too gentle.

Feeling the destructive gas in his energy center surging, Chen Yu didn’t know how to express his gratitude enough.

Compared to the friend who had inflicted a “blessing” on him, these three here were his true comrades-in-arms…

“Chief…” One of the three warriors pulled out a dagger from his waist. Then, his face full of exhaustion, he said, “We’ve already weakened his internal strength by at least 60%. If we attack him together… there’s still hope.”

“Can’t we weaken him one more time?” Zhang Qing forced himself to endure the pain of his broken arm.

“Cough…” The man vomited a mouthful of filthy blood and said, “Do… Can’t do it…”

“… Then let’s just do it together.”

“Yes.” x3

Looking at the four men slowly gathering around him, Chen Yu let out a sigh. He started to take off his protective suit, which was meant to block out the radiation around him, one piece at a time.

“He… what’s he trying to do?!” Zhang Qing was shocked.

At this moment, they were positioned at a spot that was already very close to the source of radiation, and the radiation was at extremely high levels!

At this time, taking off one’s protective suit…

Was he intending to commit suicide?

“Clang-dang.”

“Clang.”

“Slap..”

After taking off his entire protective suit, Chen Yu hopped in place a few times, twisted his head about and stretched his muscles, and then picked up the Tang knife and said, “This time, it’s so much lighter. You guys can attack me altogether.”

“Impossible…”

The four warriors stopped in their tracks at the same time and looked at one another. Fear was reflected in all of their eyes.

Zhang Qing stiffened his neck and twisted his head about to take a look at the Geiger counter inside his mask.

[1145mSv]

Inside the protective suit, the concentration of radiation was 1145mSv.

And outside the protective suit… it was at least 15000mSv and above, right!

“He…”

“He really is… a Level 3 warrior…”

“Or even higher than…”

The four men’s faces were filled with desperation.

After suffering through a series of “negative” attenuations, he was still able to freely expose himself in an environment where the concentration level of radiation was above 15000mSv.

Just what kind of monster had they run into…

After a long moment of silence, a pale-faced Zhang Qing spoke: “Can… you let us go?”

Chen Yu’s face was devoid of expression as he replied, “You guys didn’t intend to let me go.”

“We just wanted to bring you to a place to meet with our superiors.”

“If you’d come with friendly intentions, an invitation would’ve sufficed.” Chen Yu raised his Tang knife and went on to say, “But you guys chose to kidnap me in this god-forsaken place in the middle of nowhere. I seriously don’t think that you guys will let me walk away alive after the meeting.”

“…” The group of four could only remain silent.

None of them was a fool.

Because the meaning of this kind of unrelenting “malicious intent” was already very clear.

In the Foreign Realm, which was full of radiation, a dying warrior was an all-too-common sight…

“There’s no way to retreat.” Zhang Qing’s eyes were bloodshot as he shouted, “Do it!”

With madness also appearing in their eyes, the other three men gathered their last ounce of internal strength, waved their daggers, and charged towards Chen Yu while shouting, “Kill!”

“Kill!!”

“…” As Chen Yu tightly gripped his Tang knife, his internal strength erupted as he stood ready.

With the multiple boosts to his physique, power, agility, and even internal strength, he was, currently, the one with the strongest combat capability on the scene.

One injured and handicapped Level 2, three exhausted Level 1s, it was impossible for them to be his opponents…

But the next second, Zhang Qing, the leader of the group, actually turned to escape with immense speed and agility after his teammates made their move to charge forward.

And he didn’t forget to throw a round grenade before he left…

“It’s… it’s a stun grenade!”

For a fraction of a second, only a shriek was heard, and Chen Yu could see the grenade exploding with a loud bang!

“Duang!!”

There was a dazzling white ray of light.

An indistinguishable airwave spread instantly!

A loud noise of over 180 decibels directly hauled the other three subordinates off the ground.

And Chen Yu…

[Subjected to damage by white light: Temporary vision +4866; Vision +14; Internal strength +11]

[Subjected to damage by sound waves: Temporary sense of hearing +2649; Temporary sense of balance +1882; Temporary mental stability +4601; Lung health +16; Sense of hearing +14; Internal strength +264…]

“Sound waves can also expand internal strength?!”

Chen Yu froze for a moment. He was so touched.

“This is so freaking strong and appealing that I really can’t resist it!”

Tears welled in his eyes as he took his knife with him and gave chase.

“Don’t go! Give me the chance to thank you…”

Hearing the sound of footsteps getting increasingly close to him from behind, the fleeing Zhang Qing subconsciously turned back and almost bit his tongue. “Impossible!!” he exclaimed.

That was a specially made sonic bomb…

Level 3 warriors wouldn’t be able to withstand it either…

“Whoosh…”

Like a phantom flickering.

Chen Yu, whose speed was “supercharged” to the extreme, turned into a meteor. In a few blinks of an eye, he overtook Zhang Qing and stopped right in front of him, positioning his knife in the space between them.

“Thump…”

Zhang Qing hurriedly stopped in his tracks. But because of his broken arm, he was unable to find stable footing and fell hard to the ground.

Chen Yu was no gentleman either. Seeing this perfect opportunity, he didn’t even bother taking up a Pose to show off his awesomeness. Instead, he directly charged forward and stabbed his Tang knife into the other party’s back in one clean, swift motion.

“Sneak attack!”

“Pfft!”

Propelled by his internal strength, the sharp blade easily cut through the protective suit as if it were cutting tofu and plunged deep into Zhang Qing’s body.

“Ah!!”

Ignoring the miserable cries of the person beneath him, Chen Yu put up with the uncomfortable position and pushed the Tang knife sideways into the man.

“Pfft-pfft…”

Fresh blood spurted out from the man’s body like a fountain.

Zhang Qing’s cries also came to an abrupt end, as his throat was clogged with blood.

“Pfft-tsk!”

Pulling out the Tang knife, Chen Yu took a dozen or so steps back and cautiously observed Zhang Qing.

And Zhang Qing was, in turn, also giving him a death stare.

Ten seconds.

Thirty seconds.

Fifty seconds…

And then, his body convulsed as the life drained out of him, and his eyes lost their ability to focus.

“…”

After eliminating the Level 2 warrior, who was possibly the most unpredictable element in this situation, Chen Yu finally set his mind at ease.

He stood in the same spot, lowered his head, and looked at the traces of blood still dripping from the blade of his knife. His heart was suddenly struck by a surge of indescribable feeling.

It wasn’t disgust.

Nor was it exhilaration.

It was just purely “discomfort.”

It was somewhat similar to the “empathy” for the dead that a person feels after witnessing a murder…

“I killed someone.”

“It was just to protect myself…”

“For self-protection…”

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yu shook the Tang knife once or twice, bypassed the aggrieved corpse that was staring at him with open eyes, and walked over to the other three men.

One minute had passed, and they still hadn’t recovered from the damaging effect of the stun grenade.

One man had fainted.

One man was shriveled.

One was still vomiting ceaselessly, and his puke was coming out in jets.

Reaching out, Chen Yu lifted the unconscious man and pointed the blade of his knife at the man’s heart. Looking at the other two, he said, “Tell me, who sent you here.”

“…” The two remained silent.

“Pfft-tsk!”

The sharp blade directly pierced through the man’s heart.

Witnessing this vicious, ferocious act and seeing how firm and resolute he was, the two men could feel goosebumps rise all over their bodies.

“Plop.”

Throwing away the dead body, Chen Yu lifted another of the men up. This time, it was the one vomiting. “Who sent you here?” he asked.

“Gag… I… If I tell you… Gag… will you spare my life?

“I can.” Chen Yu nodded his head affirmatively.

“I… I don’t believe…”

“Pfft-tsk!”

He executed a slicing motion with the Tang knife and simply sent the man’s dead body flying as he said, “Die if you don’t believe me.”

“Dong.”

The dead body landed on the ground, spurting and gushing blood…

Then, Chen Yu walked over to stand before the remaining man. He raised his Tang knife and said, “Speak, who?”

“The chairman of Lewei Group.” The last man spoke very quickly. “He was the one who sent us here to get you.”

“Lewei Group…” Chen Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly.
