The Pyramid
The submarine stopped near the land and released an assault boat. A few Black Snake Gang members boarded the boat and advanced towards the land.
Black Rhino and Forest Viper stood on the submarine. Black Rhino crossed his arms and looked at the pyramid in the forest, "Forest Viper, what is the name of the thing that we are looking for?"
"Atlantis Codex. Legend has it that this codex is engraved on a giant emerald, and the person who obtains it will be able to dictate the life and death of all living things in the world." Forest Viper tidied his hair and said.
"Emerald! That thing should be worth quite a lot of money, right? "Black Rhino rubbed his chin and said.
Forest Viper said with a serious expression, "This isn't a problem of money. Obtaining that codex will allow one to obtain eternal life, and that is far more important than money."
Black Rhino waved his hand disapprovingly, "How can legends be taken seriously? This daddy doesn't believe in such nonsense."
At this moment, the second assault boat was already in place, and Black Rhino jumped down from the submarine. "Forest Viper, Ninja, Black Cat, Mantis, the four of you will follow me over. The rest of you will stay on the boat!"
Forest Viper unhurriedly boarded the boat with an unnoticeable smile on his face.
In the depths of the forest, Xia Fei was leaning on a big tree and observing the situation on the submarine.
"That tall and black fella is the boss of the Black Snake Gang, Black Rhino. The short man in black is Ninja, the woman in white is Black Cat, the skinny man is Mantis, and that handsome young man is Forest Viper. All the big bosses of the Black Snake Gang are here." Wu Long said.
Xia Fei turned around and gritted his teeth, "It is indeed this group of people. Are the five of them ability users?"
"En, Black Rhino is a special ability user. His skin is as hard as steel, and even bullets are unable to threaten him. Ninja and Black Cat are speed ability users, and their cultivation is at the Advanced Star Light rank. Mantis is a strength ability user, and his cultivation is at the Intermediate Star Light rank." Wu Long said.
"Then what about Forest Viper?"
"It is said that Viper is also a special ability user. His ability is even more terrifying than Black Rhino's, but no one has actually seen him use it. Not even the FBI has any records of it."
Ninja and Black Cat were Advanced Star Light Ability Users, which meant that their speed was within 71m/s. Xia Fei's speed had already reached 185m/s, which was more than twice their speed. Using his absolute advantage in speed, Xia Fei would have no problem defeating the two of them.
Mantis was a strength-type ability user, and the strength-type ability was one of the most commonly seen abilities. Mantis might have immense strength, but its speed was far inferior to Xia Fei's. Furthermore, Mantis was only at the Intermediate Star Light Realm, so there was nothing to fear. After all, the speed ability was the natural nemesis of the strength-type ability.
Black Rhino had a high physical defense, and it would probably be very difficult to defeat him. If Xia Fei were to fight with Black Rhino, the most probable outcome would be that Xia Fei wouldn't be able to break through Black Rhino's defense, and Black Rhino wouldn't be able to catch Xia Fei, who was extremely fast.
The most troublesome one would be Forest Viper. If his ability was similar to Wild Rose, even if he could only control Xia Fei for a few seconds, the outcome would be disastrous. The reason why the speed ability was so valiant was because not only could it attack the opponent, but it could also be used to dodge the opponent's attack. Without the protection of speed, it was equivalent to becoming a target that could be trampled upon.
"What should we do?" Wu Long asked.
Andre and Charlie were also staring at Xia Fei, waiting for his decision.
Xia Fei didn't answer immediately. He reached into his pocket and took out a box of Hongtashan cigarettes. It was a pity that the cigarettes could no longer be smoked after being soaked in seawater.
He took a glance at Wu Long and Andre, and both of them helplessly shook their heads.
"Wu Long, you will stay here and take care of Andre and Charlie. The two of you will move towards the pile of rocks over there and don't expose yourselves." Xia Fei said.
Wu Long stood up and said, "Are you going alone? No way, it's too dangerous! I'll go with you. No matter what, I'm also an intermediate strength ability user. I might not be able to defeat the others, but I have the confidence to strangle that Mantis. "
"No, you need to be flexible when fighting against many. Your speed is too slow, and don't forget that the other party has two speed ability users." Xia Fei said in a deep voice.
"Sigh!" Wu Long shook his head and unwillingly sat back on the ground.
Andre seemed to want to say something, but before he could think of anything, Xia Fei had already disappeared into the forest, fast as lightning.
From afar, that mournful howl rang out again. Wu Long shuddered and said to Andre and Charlie, "Let's do as Xia Fei said. I saw that his speed was much faster than before. His cultivation must have improved quite a bit during his time in the Grand Canyon. It shouldn't be a problem."
The pyramid was several hundred meters tall and was built with huge white stones. It was very spectacular. The entrance was in the middle of the pyramid, and there was a long staircase leading to it.
Xia Fei hid behind a tree and observed the situation at the bottom of the pyramid. He saw Ninja, Black Cat, and Mantis standing guard at the staircase. There were also several burly men with guns slung over their shoulders, looking very repulsive.
Mantis squatted on the ground and said with dissatisfaction, "The boss and Forest Viper went to rob the treasures, yet he left the three of us to guard the entrance. He must be worried about us, afraid that we'll take the good stuff in the pyramid."
"Don't spout nonsense. If the boss hears you, you'll lose your head. However, I really want to see just what kind of good stuff is in there." Black Cat stood on her tiptoes like a nimble cat. She was dressed in white, and her skin was also very fair. Xia Fei had no idea why such a woman would be called Black Cat.
The ninja on the side was short and stout. He was like a wooden stake that was nailed to the ground in a straight line. He was dressed in a ninja's black outfit and his face was covered by a black cloth. No matter how the black cat and the mantis bickered, he acted like he did not hear anything, his beady eyes looking around vigilantly.
Mantis had a naughty smile on his face. "Cat, if you want to know what's in there, it's actually very easy. All you need to do is to seduce the boss, Black Rhino. I'm just afraid that the boss won't like that black and swarthy look down there. Hehe. "
Black Cat was furious. He leaped to Mantis's side and reached out to grab him.
There seemed to be something flashing in Black Cat's hand. Xia Fei fixed his eyes on it and saw that it was a sharp hook in the shape of a cat's claw.
Ninja, who was standing at the side, flashed and stood in between Black Cat and Mantis. He did not say a word, just like a robot.
Black Cat stomped his feet angrily. "When we get back from here, I'll deal with you!"
Mantis did not mind and continued to glance at Black Cat with a lecherous smile on his face.
Suddenly!
Black Cat vigilantly pricked up his ears and looked into the forest.
"There seems to be something nearby!" Black Cat said loudly.
Mantis jumped up from the ground and pulled out a pair of sharp hammers from his waist. "Cat, did you hear wrong? How many people are there? "
Xia Fei, who was in the forest, was slightly startled. "I've already used Breath Control to hide my aura. How did they find me?"
At this moment, a series of rapid footsteps came from the forest, followed by a shrill scream.
