Chapter 669: Chapter 651: Chasing and Killing
Lebeite was the first monster to kill the Angel Envoy and leave the building site.
He also clearly understood that running alone onto the street easily makes one a target. These beings referred to as Angel Envoys are quite difficult to kill, and being besieged could be very troublesome.
Lebeite learned to hide,
His method of hiding was something he recently learned in school, combining Gust’s biology lessons, Maximus’s philosophy class, and Teacher Guo’s literature class.
A special mimicry formed on him, with every inch of his skin cooperating with this mimicry.
Perfectly blending with the environment without leaking any aura.
So much so that not even Joke, sleeping among the clouds, noticed his presence.
When he saw balloons appearing in the sky over the city, Lebeite immediately thought of someone he loathed, a vile person who stealthily stole away the misty remains during the videotape incident.
That scent, he always remembered.
Following the source of the scent, he also detected other aromas, first a strong, distinct sweet fragrance, the kind of smell one could enjoy in the school canteen daily.
Then there was Luo Di’s scent, though it was somewhat faint.
Luo Di was in a weakened state.
Upon this intelligence, Lebeite dared not be sluggish and rushed over swiftly.
Quickly seeking out the enemy,
applying suppression,
descending from the sky to stomp Joke’s head into the ground with a foot.
This wasn’t a simple stomp but a form of “top-down” dominance.
Humans love to assert their dominance through this stomping method.
For Lebeite, this assertion of dominance became a rule-based constraint. The oppressed is deemed weak and cannot break free without his permission.
“Long time no see, vile clown… you seem to be working hard! You have become very adept at using the mist, and the skull of the remains is entirely your possession.
What’s above it is forever stained with your stuff and can’t be taken back.
Only option is to kill you.”
Lebeite was about to press his foot down but suddenly paused as if he realized something.
“Wait… it’s better to see your true form first; if it’s covered by the mist, you might escape.”
Lebeite made a very exaggerated arm spread gesture, arms opening completely to 180°.
Inhaling deeply, Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs noⅴelfire.net
The palm slapped atop Joke’s head!
Unbelievable wind pressure and sound erupted between the two palms, even forcing Luo Di to cover his ears while being blown away a distance.
Within fifty meters, the ruins of the casino were all blown away,
even the ground somewhat sank as if a layer had been shaved off.
Strangely, the mist covering Joke’s face was not completely dispersed, only lightly blown away a thin layer, still masking the entire head.
Yet, Lebeite showed a smile, just knowing that doing so was “useful” was enough for him.
If he could tear even a little bit of the mist, then just a few more times, he could rip it all apart.
Clapping his hands a full twenty times,
steam emitting from between his palms,
Lebeite exhaled slightly, watching the lower area… the head under his foot had already emerged, still that skull of remains.
Only it was inflated and colored.
This head would continuously emit mist, infinitely.
Lebeite roughly guessed the reason why it lingered around the head.
“Not being able to see your head makes any attack supposedly meant to kill you meaningless… ‘Covering one’s ears to steal a bell’ really seems applicable to you.
But now that I’ve seen this head, if it’s destroyed, you should die or get injured.
When I came, numerous balloons floated outside~ all being your pre-set escape routes.
I’ve seen many like you who cling to life with despicable methods for profit. You’re the first to take cowardice to an extreme.
Go on, go regenerate via the balloons, let me slowly kill you again.”
Lebeite’s foot forcefully exerted, crushing the skull that had yet to produce mist like stepping on an ant.
Unlike before, when Joke was killed, the flesh would turn into exploding balloons.
The ground was dented into a deep pit,
Lebeite’s shoe was splashed with a white sticky fluid and the body twitched briefly before ceasing movement.
“It’s indeed effective, but if I want to kill you, I need to go a bit deeper… Luo Di~ can you still move? Since this guy is here, don’t let him go.”
As soon as Lebeite posed his question and looked up,
Luo Di, who should have been sitting on the side recovering from injury, was nowhere to be seen.
“Did emotions overshadow the pain? Or could it be that in just a few minutes, he has already recovered significantly?”
Lebeite looked up into the sky,
intending to check where Joke transferred to which balloon, but suddenly noticed that the sky originally filled with balloons now was clean and tidy, without a single balloon present.
Instead, there was still something floating above,
but it wasn’t a balloon, it was a pumpkin.
“This guy’s pretty smart, cutting off the clown’s escape route in advance. In that case, the probability of killing that guy is higher.”
Just as Lebeite was about to precisely locate him, a dense fog suddenly descended upon the whole city, instantly covering it without any transition.
A loud crash came from above,
A winged pumpkin head fell heavily,
Lebeite sidestepped and, borrowing a move he’d casually seen in a basketball game online, caught the falling pumpkin in a manner akin to grabbing a basketball.
“Thanks… there’s something in the mist, be careful!”
Hardly had he finished speaking, a huge silhouette appeared in the mist, a large foot stepping down towards their position.
Lebeite didn’t dodge, just stood there.
The foot came down, yet it didn’t touch the ground, being blocked by a hand.
Lebeite held the pumpkin with one hand and blocked the stomp with the other.
And the giant object within the mist was, astonishingly, a balloon creation! The mist was alive, able to infiltrate balloons to shape themselves.
Just like Joke’s imagination, as rich as it was, the forms they could create were equally powerful.
there were many such mist creations, coming towards them.
Lebeite said softly, “You are Frank, right… I remember you seem capable of creating an inherent domain! Can you fit all these things, plus the mist, into it?
I need to help Luo Di, we’ll finish the fight as soon as possible.”
The pumpkin head in his hand slightly shook and responded, “I can…”
“Your head seems pretty hard, right?”
“Quite hard! Why do you ask?”
Frank’s question didn’t get a response, he only felt Lebeite’s grip increasing, coupled with a throwing motion.
Speed equates to destruction power.
With Lebeite’s throw, an ordinary pumpkin could possess missile-like power.
Frank’s pumpkin head, upon being thrown, collided with the top of the giant creation’s head! Crash… The immense impact broke the creation apart, the balloon shell exploding.
The pumpkin head was indeed hard, perfectly unharmed.
But due to the sudden acceleration, Frank felt nauseous and wanted to vomit, spraying rich pumpkin juice in the air.
After slightly stabilizing,
he also followed Lebeite’s arrangement, opening up his little town domain, trying to fit all the mist in the city within.
in the deepest part of the mist.
On a mattress carried by four employees, Joke’s true form awakened here, the mist swirling around its face becoming somewhat chaotic.
Lebeite’s guess was evidently correct, the earlier stomp indeed caused Joke substantive harm.
Facing the three attacking together, especially with a natural-born monster like Lebeite present, Joke lingered no longer.
He decisively ordered the employees to leave quickly, even helping them inflate proactively to speed up movement in the air.
However, the cloud had not even moved a hundred meters.
The heads of the four employees were all severed.
An ancient and wrinkled arm had already gripped Joke’s throat, a tongue squirmed beside his ear:
“Who allowed you to leave?”
