Chapter 542 472: The Chase Begins
Suddenly, a glaring red light flickered inside the train compartment, followed by the sound of an alarm.
"Warning, warning. Four unregistered 'Awakener' have entered the compartment. Passengers, please note, communication with suspected Awakeners is prohibited. Please cooperate with the tag catcher's capture operation. If you encounter any suspicious individuals, please report to the station police..."
The alarm abruptly stopped, making the four girls the center of attention instantly, with no need for suspicion their red Awakener tags were as conspicuous as could be.
Seeing the girls, the surrounding people gasped in astonishment, retreated a circle, and began murmuring incessantly.
For these bionics, Awakeners are undoubtedly an extremely dangerous existence, uncontrollable and unpredictable behavior, often reports of Awakeners attacking Disciplinary Officers, threatening public safety appear in the news.
Yet witnessing Awakeners at such close range, it's the first time for them.
"Ignore these people." Xu Xiaoyou said, suddenly realizing something was off, frowning slightly.
"What's wrong, You?" Chichu Chun asked, only to also sense something strange.
She had a very odd sensation, speaking was laborious, saying a complete sentence consumed a lot of energy.
Moreover, her mind became empty and heavy, as if shackled by chains, the words in her head couldn't form sentences. No... She couldn't even think of the words she wanted to express, in some sense, those words seemed extracted from their memory, this state wasn't deliberately blurred but akin to having never seen those words in a dictionary!
"It's the behavioral restriction mentioned in the rules." Bai Youyou judged.
Angelina tried flexing her muscles, quickly running a lap around the compartment, the whirlwind stirred the scattered papers on the floor, upon returning, the flying paper scraps just settled back down.
Angelina's face also looked unwell, her body felt much heavier than she imagined.
"For Shadow Attackers, this is a massive weakening." Chichu Chun drooped her face.
"Hmph."
As everyone tested the limitations of the rules, whether it was their imagination or not, they faintly heard a very cool snort.
Turning their heads, they saw a gaze fixed on them. A tall man stood behind the passage door, wielding a blood-rusted sharp axe, with bulging muscles seeming ready to burst from his tattered denim jacket, through the curved club mask, the heavy breathing was clearly audible.
"It's Jason, Slaughterer dispatched their support position." Xu Xiaoyou's eyes lowered.
"Tag catcher will lift action restrictions in 10s; both Awakened parties, please prepare."
"10, 9, 8, 7, 6..."
Meanwhile, in the adjacent compartment, a blue-haired girl with melancholic eyes sat poised behind the passage door, cradling "Popeya's Coronation." The deep blue starry dress draped down to her ankles, the Silence mask slowly covering her right face, a drop of pitch-black tear congealed at her eye corner. In the darkness, an invisible oppressive sensation spread tentacle-like from her skirt edges.
Her basic attributes enhanced, the girl's attributes soared to Fifth Tier; this attire was her Divine Gift—"Cangmo Ceremony Attire."
And in the compartment before her, corpses were strewn all over, blood flowed like drifting wood, four serial killers lined up, eagerly licking their sharp teeth, awaiting the countdown's completion.
Tang Xin softly chanted, the song tender and ethereal.
The benefaction traversed through space-time, halos expanded from beneath the Light Chasing Garden's crowd.
With the tail end of 'one' broadcast, the countdown ended, the tiger long awaited to shred its prey roared out of its cage. The girl elegantly stood up, Ning Ran's eyes opened, one covering the throat, her String Sword stained with striking red.
The battle was imminent.
Both began fighting simultaneously.
"Anya, try seeing how high this guy's attributes are." Xu Xiaoyou said.
Jason roared, the iron thorn chains pierced through his burly figure, covering his surface, the axe in his hand expanded several times, dense blood aura gushed out.
To express his reverence for the prey, the moment they met, Jason released his Divine Gift—"Blood Evil Slaughter Armor"!
"No need to tell me, I already know."
Angelina ignored the bionics' gasps inside the compartment, grabbed the Abyssal White Flower, and charged forward, stomping sharply, the erupting rocks surged along the compartment path, suddenly bursting beneath Jason's feet, rock pillars instantly restrained his position.
Angelina stepped forward, gripped the lance with both hands, sweeping horizontally, slashing out a silver star moon!
This silver star moon swiftly expanded, producing a slight buzz in the space it passed, yet shattered instantaneously upon colliding with Jason's body, turning into countless tiny light fragments.
"Angelina, what are you doing?" Bai Youyou couldn't believe it, this guy was attempting to attack a Divine Gift with a Two Tier star moon sweep?
Jason coldly snorted, eyes full of mockery as he turned his head, as if ridiculing Angelina's attack, mere scratch to him.
Then, he raised his sharp axe high, suddenly slashing towards Angelina, what seemed like an ordinary strike rapidly enlarged in the silver-haired girl's eyes, occupying the world overwhelmingly, escape was impossible.
At this moment, Bai Youyou arrived, wielding a heavy hammer, blocking the strike head-on, her whole body was numb from the countershock even while using 'Block.'
Jason's attacks followed closely, Bai Youyou decisively abandoned defense further, directly grabbed Angelina, hurling her aside, while she bore a heavy hit, retreated a few steps, once more swung the heavy hammer, collided head-on relying on strong stats.
"This guy's physique post-enhancement, at least exceeds a thousand."
Angelina judged mid-air, simultaneously inserting the lance upside down into the ground, stabilizing her stance, swiftly supporting Bai Youyou from the side.
In Shadow State, Chichu Chun seized the timing, ducking quickly under Jason's arm, aiming the Incineration Cannon at his chest, firing at maximum power directly!
As the blinding white light engulfed the world, a violent boom resounded, making ears ring and head dizzy.
The smoke swiftly dispersed, before Chichu Chun could react, a pair of large hands broke through the black smoke, grabbing violently, gripping her throat, lifting her off the ground, slamming heavily onto the railing, the metal rail crumpled instantly like a toy, blood simultaneously spilled from the girl's mouth.
Chichu Chun gasped heavily, summoned Alice, blocking the incoming heavy fist, her whole body flew backward again, hitting the train compartment, ending up beside Xu Xiaoyou.
In contrast, Jason, under the "Bloody Slaughter Armor's" effect, aside from some scorching, the previous attack left no injuries.
Bai Youyou and Angelina resolutely abandoned entanglement, swiftly retreated, returning to Xu Xiaoyou's side.
"How was it, did you see anything?" The two disheveled girls asked together.
Xu Xiaoyou sneered faintly, a [Fireball Bombardment] in her hand erupted into flames.
"Of course, I saw it all."
Seriousness surfaced on Jason's face, his brother had warned him, the Dark Gold Rose's ability to manipulate fire was extremely strong, be wary.
Thus, under his vigilant gaze, the flame in Xu Xiaoyou's palm suddenly extinguished, she turned and ran, without any hesitation!
"We can't possibly beat this guy head-on, execute Plan B."
