Chapter 1356 - 67: Hello

Chapter 1356: Chapter 67: Hello

The Iron Tank slaughtered the Berserk Barbartray, no matter how the latter was willing to offer a Golden Suit, it didn’t sway the Iron Tank’s determination to kill him.

Meanwhile, Masked Man and Lan Zuo were swiftly closing in on Su Xiao, maintaining a distance of about two kilometers between them.

"This guy is pretty fast."

Masked Man’s spirit was somewhat excited as she successfully locked onto Su Xiao, now enjoying the thrill of a cat chasing a mouse. This feeling was irresistible to her, although she wasn’t aware of the enemy’s strength, it didn’t affect her enjoyment during the pursuit.

"Tell me his exact location, I’ll go engage him first."

Lan Zuo slowed down a bit, as he couldn’t track Su Xiao, he had to stay relatively close to Masked Man.

"Right over there."

Masked Man’s finger twirled a few times, who knows where she was pointing. She couldn’t possibly tell Lan Zuo the enemy’s exact location, and if Lan Zuo wanted to shake her off, it was definitely beyond her ability to keep up.

"..."

Lan Zuo suppressed the urge to kill Masked Man in his heart; before he avenged the blame she put on him, he wouldn’t make a move on this Little Wildcat.

"Damn."

Lan Zuo suddenly spat out curses.

"Oh my god."

Masked Man, standing on a rooftop, immediately hit the brakes; almost simultaneously, the two turned and rushed back.

second, 2 seconds.

Boom!

A fireball emerged about 200 meters behind Lan Zuo and Masked Man. If they continued pursuing, they would have certainly been affected by this rapidly expanding fireball.

The fireball instantly expanded to half a kilometer, and the scorching temperature instantly vaporized structures within half a kilometer.

Heat swept forward, and Masked Man, hiding behind a building, curled up to minimize the heat exposure to her body. An Apollo was detonated.

Just moments ago, Masked Man and Lan Zuo entered Apollo’s explosive range and immediately sensed the terrifying sense of crisis, causing them to retreat quickly.

Minutes later, the fireball formed by Apollo disappeared, the Solar Flame burned fiercely within the explosion range; this was probably the Apollo that killed the fewest enemies, its kill count was zero.

Behind a scarlet wall, Masked Man stood up, her upper body soft metal armor opened, and vapor formed of evaporating sweat dispersed.

Masked Man’s head was covered with black short hair and heavy black eye shadow. With her upper body soft metal armor open, she was completely uncovered above.

Fresh water poured on a masked man’s body; her exterior armor had good thermal insulation performance; otherwise, she would have been dehydrated by now, and water droplets dripped from her hair strands as she took deep breaths of fresh air.

"If affected by that thing, without invulnerability, you’d definitely die."

Chasing until now, Masked Man started feeling a bit hesitant.

The sound of footsteps came, Masked Man immediately controlled the exterior armor to close, wrapping her body within.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Lan Zuo, dryly coughing, came before the Masked Man, his handsome white hair scorched black, emitting wisps of smoke.

"Keep chasing."

Muscles twitched on Lan Zuo’s face, perhaps he could endure taking the blame, but burning his hair, he could never tolerate!

"Alright... alright."

Masked Man’s tone was a bit unusual; she wasn’t terrified, but desperately holding back her laughter.

With a crashing sound, black-gray ashes fell from Lan Zuo’s head, he ten fingers twitched, nearly going mad.

"Pfft~"

"If you dare laugh, you’ll be the first to die today."

Arcs flashed in Lan Zuo’s eyes; this time, Masked Man couldn’t laugh, in a life-and-death struggle, she wasn’t Lan Zuo’s match.

"Lead the way, keep chasing."

"Catch."

Masked Man tossed a tablet to Lan Zuo.

"This is the location, chase him yourself, as for personal grudges, I’m not interested in getting involved. That guy can use explosives to cover his retreat, and can also use explosives to die along with the enemy."

A smile appeared on Masked Man’s face, but her exterior armor helmet perfectly concealed her expression.

Lan Zuo said nothing, disappeared in the form of lightning; moments later, Masked Man reappeared with a grim expression, holding a smoking tablet, the scene was extremely awkward.

Lan Zuo’s expression twisted, he was furious to the extreme.

"5000 Paradise Coins."

Masked Man extended five fingers, each fingertip adorned with glistening metal claws.

Lan Zuo didn’t waste words, directly tossed Masked Man a Paradise Coin Savings Card, after obtaining a new tablet, he glanced at it and stored the device in his Storage Space, then vanished in the form of lightning.

After Lan Zuo left, Masked Man stood, patted the dust off her backside, and even stretched.

"Hmm~ Fooled another one, the lunatics of the travel group aren’t a big deal; let this cat see where you are now... found it, you’ve already exited Zone 21."

Masked Man leaped and disappeared from the spot, seconds after she left, arcs sparkled, and Lan Zuo reappeared.

"Finally shook them off completely, Little Wildcat actually wants to have it all to herself, my Lightning Avatar can only last half an hour, but it’s enough."

Lan Zuo touched his head, feeling a handful of black ash.

"Looks like a new hairstyle is needed, bald might not be so bad."

Lan Zuo walked towards the direction where Masked Man disappeared, his steps unhurried, he wasn’t in a rush, it was easier to reap the benefits than to fight the enemy to the death. Lan Zuo believed in one thing, never act out when you can think it through.

...

Shapodi Archipelago, District 22.

Most buildings in District 22 are hospitals, it’s not far from the Lawless Zone of the 16 District; after pirates fight to the death, they come directly to the hospital.

In the gap between two abandoned hospitals, this is an alley, the alley is about six meters wide, filled with a large quantity of discarded medical equipment, with few human traces on surrounding streets.

In the alley, Su Xiao pulled at his collar’s fabric, checking the gunshot wound he recently received; the gunshot pierced through his shoulder, fortunately, Little Bun healed him a few times, allowing the wound to seal up and scab.

Su Xiao moved his shoulder, the blood scab fell, in the wound’s depth faint blood strands were visible, but it was no longer a serious issue.

After arriving here, Su Xiao stopped running; the vague sense of surveillance remained, indicating the enemy locked onto him; further escape was meaningless.

If having escaped this far, those Lone Wolves could still chase him entirely, Su Xiao was helpless, if such a situation happened, it meant the Lone Wolves had temporarily united, the chances of this happening were low, during a pursuit while still united, those arrogant Lone Wolves were unlikely to achieve it.

The alley was deathly silent, not long after, Bubu Wang appeared out of thin air beside Su Xiao, holding a flintlock gun in his mouth.

Su Xiao took the flintlock gun from Bubu Wang’s mouth, a plethora of prompts appeared.

...

Su Xiao decisively accepted this task; only after being certified, Roger’s Side Gun had value.

As soon as Su Xiao accepted the task, the sound of light footsteps came from above; he looked up.

"Hello, Little Mouse."

Masked Man squatted on the rooftop of a hospital and looked down at Su Xiao, greeting him by raising her hand. She dared to chase him alone because she had an exceptionally strong ability to escape.

Before showing herself, Masked Man already considered what to do if she wasn’t a match for Su Xiao, and concluded that she would immediately create a loud noise to attract other Contractors.

"..."

Su Xiao drew his Long Knife from his waist without a word.
