Chapter 1707 - 1707: The Terror of the Genetic Man

"Hahahahaha, we still don't know who's going to die today, Jiang Feng! You're the stepping stone for my Rong Family to soar from now on. I should thank you for showing up, otherwise all these years of painstaking work of mine would've had nowhere to be used!"

After hearing Jiang Feng's threat, Rong Xingpu instead burst out laughing, wildly arrogant to the extreme!

And at the same time, that Mantis Man test subject No. 28 had already turned into a gust of bloody stench, pouncing toward Jiang Feng, its twin scythes hacking at him with brutal ferocity!

The instant it struck, Jiang Feng immediately sensed that the attack pattern of this test subject No. 28 was actually identical to that of the Mantis Fist Master Jiao Ziyou he'd kicked to death with one blow earlier!

Looks like the Rong Family still has secrets nobody knows—their real purpose in recruiting and netting all those Tributors everywhere is to use these Tributors, copy their Martial Arts, then pass them on to Genetic Men via genetic programming, finally giving those skills a battlefield to shine on!

These Genetic Men have already been modified into physiques that are perfectly suited to those Martial Arts; if they then gain matching techniques, of course they'll unleash greater effect and even more terrifying lethality!

Besides that, the twin scythes of this Mantis Man were even shimmering with a nauseating dark green glow, soaked with all kinds of fluids—clearly his body had been cultivated to carry deadly poison, a literal killing tool in human shape!

Seeing its twin scythes chopping down, Jiang Feng leapt up, making test subject No. 28 hack at empty air!

Those twin scythes were actually like they'd been forged from fine steel, instantly pulverizing the mountain path's ground, stone chips flying everywhere!

At the same time, Jiang Feng rose into midair, and a sweeping roundhouse kick lashed out, smashing right into test subject No. 28's skull.

This kick was heavy and fierce; with a crack, it knocked test subject No. 28's head crooked, spinning a full hundred and eighty degrees so that its facial features were directly facing backward!

The people of the three major families behind all gasped!

Could it be that this Genetic Man, who looked like he was bluffing behind borrowed prestige, was actually just a paper Tiger, kicked to death by Jiang Feng in one blow again?

But in the next second, something that made their hair stand on end happened!

They saw that test subject No. 28 also realized its own neck had been kicked broken by Jiang Feng, its head deviating from the normal direction.

So it actually hooked its own head with its two Hook Scythes, then forcibly twisted it back around, returning it to a normal position, glaring at Jiang Feng with a vicious, feral stare!

Only now could everyone be certain: Genetic Men were no longer normal humans.

Even a sure-death state could be reversed; it was absurd to the point of madness!

What was even more worrying was that the Rong Family had genuinely succeeded in cultivating this kind of outsider—and this was only a single No. 28… so just how many Genetic Men had the Rong Family created? Where were the previous twenty-seven…

"ROAR!!!"

Test subject No. 28 had already lost human emotion, but it still knew its attack just now hadn't worked, and that it had been knocked into humiliation by Jiang Feng's kick!

It let out a furious roar, raised its twin scythes again, and launched a fierce assault toward Jiang Feng!

This Genetic Man test subject's combat power had absolutely inherited Jiao Ziyou's true teachings, unleashing the full essence of Mantis Fist—every word of the Twelve Character Technique like Hook, Lou, Cai, hang, Sticky, Stain, Stick, Kao, Diao, Jin, Beng, strike—all fully displayed, and even the chained offensive method of "no Diao no strike, once you Diao you strike, once you strike you hit several times" was used to perfection!

Its abdominal legs below also coordinated with glide, Follow Step, Stepping, dragging step and the like, in an instant unleashing a deadly combo and assault on Jiang Feng!

What was even more terrifying was that, because it had been modified, its genes contained the tireless hunting genes of a mantis, so its strength was inexhaustible. In a flash it clung to Jiang Feng in close combat, like a haunting ghost, chaining out dozens of moves in succession, fighting on without death or rest!

Jiang Feng hadn't expected that he'd actually be stuck, even for a moment, to this fully poisonous genetic freak, and he couldn't help but get pissed—had he been giving it too much face?

So, after test subject No. 28 once again failed with a Cai-scythe attack, Jiang Feng suddenly lashed out with another kick, this time driving straight into test subject No. 28's lower abdomen.

And the force was greater than before, enough to crush rotten wood!

He directly kicked test subject No. 28 so hard that its body split apart, its disgusting lower body and abdominal legs dropping to the ground, while the upper half flew off, tracing a parabola and landing smack in the midst of the three major families' forces!

In an instant, several people from the three major families were injured by friendly fire, smashed to death alive by test subject No. 28; the unlucky ones splashed by the poisonous fluids on its body were corroded as if by sulfuric acid, screaming in agony on the spot—some had their faces ruined and went blind, some had their skin split open at a speed visible to the naked eye, flesh torn to reveal bone, a sight too miserable to look at!

"Bang!!!"

Watching test subject No. 28 once again get kicked back by Jiang Feng, and even directly dismembered, Rong Jingfeng's heart sank, his face turning deathly pale, extremely ugly!

His grandfather had already exposed the Rong Family's trump card today—succeed or die trying. If something else went wrong now, the loss would be monstrous, and when he went back he might well have to face Ying Zheng's wrath!

"Grand… Grandpa…" he looked at Rong Xingpu bitterly.

"Don't panic!"

Rong Xingpu clenched his teeth in a grin full of malice, turning to look at test subject No. 28 on the ground.

They saw that after test subject No. 28 smashed a few people to death and squirmed a few times, it suddenly struggled back up again.

Even though it had lost its lower body, it was still stabbing its Hook Scythes into the ground, dragging itself one step at a time toward Jiang Feng with furious hatred!

Even with its rear half like it had been waist-chopped, blood flooding the ground and intestines spilling out incessantly, its killing obsession still burned on; it was dead set on dragging Jiang Feng down to Hell with it!

"Kekeke, this is the advantage of Genetic Men. Their Vitality is far tougher than ordinary people's. Even if all that's left is a single head, it'll still find a way to bite its enemy to death! Did you really think that all the investment our Rong Family poured in over so many years, nearly draining our entire foundation, was for nothing?!"

Rong Xingpu watched the struggling, crawling test subject No. 28 like he was admiring a still somewhat satisfactory piece of work, laughing in pride.

And behind him, even the people of the three major families, including Xiong Yixiao, Che Qiangzhan, and the others, were all covering their noses in disgust, unable to say a word.

This was way too disgusting; it'd be better to just cultivate a zombie—maimed to this degree and still going up to fight?!

What was even more ridiculous was that this test subject No. 28, even when intact, wasn't Jiang Feng's match; did they really think it would be fine with only half a body left?!

The next moment, something came along to slap them in the face!

They saw that in its half-ruined state, when test subject No. 28 finally crawled in front of Jiang Feng, it suddenly exploded with powerful strength, springing up out of nowhere, still brandishing its twin scythes to hack at Jiang Feng—its Killing Aura and offensive power actually hadn't been affected at all!

Jiang Feng truly couldn't bear it anymore—running into this disaster that was still struggling on even at death's door, there was no way not to grind it into dust!

So he picked up a chunk of brick-stone from the ground, took it in his hand without hesitation, and in an instant darted forward to smash it viciously down on test subject No. 28's forehead!

This time, a cold, vicious force swept out in a raging wave, instantly pounding that wretched howling test subject No. 28 into pulp—blood juice splattering, its body turning into scattered chunks, raining down onto the ground!
