Bam!
After smashing Constantine's head with one punch, Lou Cheng lifted his left leg and lashed out again with a whip kick. With a layer of blazing blue flames, his kick landed on his opponent's body. Smoke and dust flew up, and the body that hadn't completely fused back together was torn apart again. His body was set ablaze and slowly burned, emitting specks of red light.
Only then did Lou Cheng heave a sigh of relief.
He had never heard of a Mighty One who could "resurrect" after being dismembered. Even the Vampire Emperor of the Samanno Royal Family couldn't do it. Only the Mission Sect had always claimed that the Savior from two thousand years ago could do it. However, they had added too many religious elements and mysteries to this story, so it wasn't as believable.
Who would have thought that Dark Night Bat would be able to accomplish such an unbelievable feat? It was almost like a miracle. If it weren't for the fact that he had a premonition of danger and the alarm in his heart hadn't been lifted, he might have been able to escape. There would have been no end of trouble.
Just as Lou Cheng was about to burn this strange enemy to ashes, he suddenly realized that the blood flowing out of his body had changed into different shades of red. There was dark red, rusty red, pale red, bright red, bright red, and so on. They intersected with each other, dotted with faint blue and milky white, and bubbled from time to time.
This didn't look like blood at all. It looked more like a carelessly added chemical reagent!
Constantine's muscles and tendons were also wriggling, each growing in a collapsing fashion. Some were paralyzed, while others grew new fingers. It was a hair-raising sight.
"Gene collapse …" muttered Lou Cheng, frowning slightly.
He had seen the tragic state of a gene collapse in the military's research materials. It was very similar, except that Dark Night Bat's blood was even stranger.
After a few seconds, all the changes disappeared. The flesh lost all signs of life. Some rotted rapidly, while others were perfectly preserved.
"This is so f * cking weird …" Lou Cheng couldn't help but curse. He found a piece of flesh the size of half a palm, sealed it in layers of ice, and kept it in his pocket. As for the rest, he smashed down with his fist, causing blazing white flames to spread in all directions as they collided with the ground, burning them to ashes, leaving no medium for resurrection.
After doing all that, he finally had the time to think about how Dark Night Bat could come back to life.
"Could it be that his body structure has mutated to the point that it's similar to an earthworm? As long as it's not cut vertically, it doesn't matter if it's split in half?"
"But just now, his heart was his heart, his lungs were his lungs, and his liver was his liver. There was nothing special about it."
"Perhaps his mutated root pulp is similar to a single-celled organism and can survive for a while. As long as it gathers again within a certain period of time, it won't completely lose its vitality … And this' gathering 'is guided by the mind, so there shouldn't be any problems with the brain?"
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. I'm not a researcher. I'll leave it to the military."
"But there's one thing I'm certain of. Dark Night Bat's resurrection ability needs to be prepared. Otherwise, he could very well trade my life with injuries … Although Ren Li's Sky Burial is powerful, it doesn't threaten my life right from the start. It's more of a serial attack …"
At this point, Lou Cheng still didn't know the names of the two enemies just now, so he could only call them by their nicknames.
After looking around, Lou Cheng didn't stay any longer. He left Khukhang at high speed and headed back to the port city of Fartouat. He only rested for a while when he found a secluded spot in the desert. He used the Confrontation Formula to clear his mind and body and accelerate the recovery of his injuries.
…
After Lieutenant General Amon led the troops to occupy Sathah's military base, he returned to the temporary base amidst the lingering gunfire. He waited for a long time but didn't see the Mummy or Constantine return.
"He doesn't want his sarcophagus anymore? He's so badly injured … "Amon was puzzled. He felt that something was amiss and immediately got up. Traversing through the urban jungle, he sprinted back to the battlefield where Sathah had been forced to self-destruct.
He looked around and quickly found the Mummy's severed arm and palm. The yellowish white bandages were all gone, and the charred skin had been sliced clean like a fruit, leaving only flesh and bones.
"He's dead!" Amon narrowed his eyes, shocked and furious.
There must have been a fierce battle here! Unfortunately, the gunfire in the military base was louder and the flames were brighter. Amon didn't notice anything amiss.
Plus, no matter how badly injured the Mummy was, he was still a Demigod. He shouldn't have been killed so easily. Did Dark Night Bat do it?
Amon followed the trail, but it had been a long time. His aura had long since dissipated, so he could only give up halfway. But in the meantime, he found Constantine's attack that had split the ground open. He found the flesh and blood that had been deliberately set up. This made Amon overturn his previous guesses. His heart grew colder and colder.
When he sent a regiment of soldiers to search the surroundings, he finally found another battlefield. He saw shattered bones covered in brain matter and ashes everywhere.
"Dark Night Bat is dead too …" Amon gasped, his heart skipping a beat.
After working together, he had a better understanding of Constantine's strength and expertise. Judging from his mysterious behavior, he definitely had some hidden abilities. Even Amon wasn't confident in winning, let alone killing him.
Killing two Demigods in one go, even if one was heavily injured and the other a weakened Demigod, wasn't an easy feat. It might even be extremely difficult. Just the thought of an enemy lurking in the dark sent chills down his spine.
After a few seconds of silence, Lieutenant General Amon returned to the temporary encampment. He didn't search or pursue the matter, afraid that he would accidentally hit a "steel plate" and lose his life.
In the heavily guarded headquarters, he reported to the Pharaoh.
On the other end of the line, there was silence at first. Then, he asked, "Any clues?"
"No. They destroyed the corpse and destroyed the traces. But from the remnants of Imposa's arm and palm, at least one of the enemies is skilled in cutting," Amon answered honestly.
There was silence on the other end of the line again. After a while, he finally spoke.
"Put it aside for now. Maintain order in Khukhang. We'll investigate after this is over … That's good too."
…
Outside Fartouat Port, on a cruise ship, the sky was high and the sea was blue. The wind was clear and the scenery was vast.
Lou Cheng stood on the deck, admiring the waves of the Sea of Death. He took out the satellite phone he had borrowed from the consulate and called his master.
After recuperating, he had completely recovered. He had also changed out of his tattered martial arts suit and was now leaving with the last batch of evacuees from the port city.
"Hello?" Before long, Shi Jianguo's aged voice sounded from the other end of the line.
"Master, it's me. Siris and his family have evacuated from Nile," Lou Cheng explained the final details of the mission.
"I knew about it last night. Not bad. You did well," praised Geezer Shi with a forced smile.
This was supposed to be a difficult mission filled with danger. He might even have to exchange blows with a Physical Invulnerability Mighty One. With his disciple's supernatural ability awakened for the third time and his body tempered by the Jindan, he wouldn't die so easily. But the stimulation would definitely help him build up his willpower and make the great leap. In the end, he advanced in advance without external help. Not only did the mission become redundant, but its difficulty also plummeted.
Lou Cheng briefly described the process and asked,
"Master, is there any urgency with Lin Que? Should I practice the Physical Invulnerability chapter or look for him first? "
With Brother-in-law's strength, it wouldn't be easy for him to get into trouble in the war-torn zones. It shouldn't be a problem to delay it for a while.
Shi Jianguo coughed and said, "There's no hurry.
Old Man Ji has changed his mind. He got Shushan Study's men in the war-torn zones to watch over him and the military to help. He might also go for a stroll himself. You don't have to worry about that. Come back first. Practice the Physical Invulnerability chapter and stabilize your connection. "
Lin Que is a prideful brat. Old Man Ji deliberately sent him to the war-torn zones to train. He asked you to look for him as an excuse to train you. But now, what's the point of training?
"Alright," sighed Lou Cheng.
If Brother-in-law hadn't awakened his supernatural ability in advance for the sake of becoming the national champion, he would have reached the peak of the Inhuman stage by now. If he had trained for two years in the war-torn zones, he might have been able to reach the Physical Invulnerability stage. But he had just entered the Inhuman stage and had just stabilized his foundation. As for the Physical Invulnerability stage, that was even further away.
Lou Cheng closed his eyes and thought about Lin Que's cold and reserved face. He suddenly felt that he wouldn't turn back until he reached the Physical Invulnerability stage.
Hope for the best …
Geezer Shi didn't dwell on this matter. After a moment of silence, he said,
"Are you going to return to Longhu after mastering the basics of the Physical Invulnerability chapter?"
"Yeah. I owe the Dragon King and the club too much," replied Lou Cheng with certainty.
"That's good too. You haven't practiced the Physical Invulnerability chapter of the Fire Sect. If you complete a few more secret missions, you might be able to comprehend the Divine Kungfu of the Restriction Sect!" said Geezer Shi happily.
"Secret missions?" asked Lou Cheng thoughtfully.
"They should have told you before. After joining Longhu, you will occasionally have to complete missions assigned by the military. For an Inhuman, it's very simple. All you have to do is be a security guard and cooperate with some experiments. When you reach the Physical Invulnerability stage, it will be relatively more difficult, but not too dangerous. Cough, dangerous missions. You won't be the only one. Perhaps the Dragon King will participate as well. Anyway, after accumulating enough contributions, you will be able to comprehend the Divine Kungfu of the Restriction Sect of Taoism!"
Geezer Shi gave a rough explanation. Half sighing and half disdainful, he said, "Come back as soon as possible. Once the connection is stabilized and you have mastered the basics of the Physical Invulnerability chapters of the Ice and Fire Sect, you will be considered a true Physical Invulnerability expert. At that time, you will have plenty of opportunities to fight opponents of the same level. There will be plenty of life and death battles. Don't be like Peng and Ren, impatient and impatient to challenge Physical Invulnerability level enemies."
"…" Lou Cheng suddenly felt guilty. "Master, there's something I need to report to you."
"What is it?" Geezer Shi tensed up. His heart was in his mouth.
This brat rarely speaks in such a tone. What did he do?
Lou Cheng cleared his throat and said,
"I met Ren Li last night. Together with her, we killed two Physical Invulnerability experts."
"What did you say?" Geezer Shi raised his voice.
