Despite being outnumbered and surrounded, Cao Han's tone when asking questions made it sound as if he were the one surrounding them all.
Faced with his sudden question, the scene fell silent for a moment, with only the sound of swallowing saliva being heard.
The pressure that Cao Han alone exerted on so many of them was simply terrifying.
Those selected for the action team are no fools. Judging from Cao Han's lightning-fast movement, it can be quickly deduced that he most likely used a speed-type incantation to dodge.
but!
However, deducing the truth doesn't change their predicament of being helpless!
For users of the "super speed" type of Word of Power, it can be simple or difficult. The simplest way is to use overwhelming force to overcome all other methods, and you can easily do it by being faster than your opponent. The difficult way is to use high-risk Word of Power on a large scale, which also comes with high risks and high rewards.
Just like Chu Zihang's Word of Power: Lord's Flame.
Unfortunately, the Doomsday Faction still follows the "rules" set by the former Secret Society in some aspects, such as how to deal with people with unstable bloodlines and those who possess high-risk Word of Power.
Of the entire task force, only Captain Levi's Word of Power: Blaze possesses widespread destructive power.
The release generates a massive amount of flames, used to burn enemies, creating an effect akin to hundreds of tons of fuel being ignited in the streets of a city.
Everything has its advantages and disadvantages, and the same applies to the power of words.
After gaining a wide-area AOE ability, the biggest problem with the Word of Power: Blaze is its insufficient damage output.
Ordinary flames may pose a deadly threat to ordinary people, but for truly powerful enemies, such as hybrids with extremely high bloodlines or even pure-blooded dragons, the burning and high temperature generated by ordinary flames may cause damage, but not enough to kill them!
Even Principal Angers' ultimate weapon, Time Zero, is not perfect.
At least when facing pure-blooded dragon enemies with dragon bodies, the killing range is greatly limited by the weapon in hand, which is the legendary nail clipper for trimming nails. Anyone who has played a game called "Monster Hunter" should have a deep understanding of this.
"It seems you're not very willing to give me an answer."
Cao Han looked around the scene without paying any attention and found that the team's equipment was quite complete, the number of people was not small, and many of the hybrids had considerable strength within his perception range.
If it was indeed such a team that attacked Novsky and his group with a premeditated attack, Novsky couldn't be blamed.
"You seem to recognize us."
Levi felt as if he had been hit by a speeding train when Murphy kicked him. Not only did his bones feel like they were about to fall apart, but even the slightest movement caused waves of pain.
In the heat of the moment, one simply doesn't have time to think about anything else; the idea of using clever tricks to get someone out is completely unfounded.
If Murphy could achieve that level of skill in the blink of an eye, he would have been better off blocking the attack for Levi; there would have been no need for such a fuss.
Despite his physical discomfort, Levi's mind raced as he began to analyze the current situation.
It's fortunate that the enemy didn't start a massacre right away.
Moreover, through those two short sentences, he also learned that the other party was a mixed-race individual, just like himself.
This only made things more awkward, since they had initially treated their opponent as a pure-blooded dragon, resulting in a huge blunder.
If... if they had chosen the same old approach and waited for the worst, things might not be like this now...
The thought of regret had barely crossed his mind when Levi immediately cut it off.
"Judging from the reactions of the others, you must be the one in charge here." Cao Han abandoned the "evolution value" in front of him and turned to look at Levi, who had fallen into the pit from the previous kick.
"Everything just now was a misunderstanding, we are the end of the world..." Levi spoke very quickly, trying to buy time to explain the misunderstanding between them.
But Cao Han's next words plunged Levi into despair.
"It's impolite not to reciprocate! One person is enough for questioning; the rest are unnecessary!"
Even the most good-tempered person would get annoyed if someone attacked them with four missiles without saying a word.
Moreover, because of the previous attack on Novsky, Cao Han's impression of the Doomsday Faction had already been greatly diminished, and now it's even worse, dropping to rock bottom, and they've been added to the enemy list.
When dealing with enemies, there's no need to be so particular about how you strike.
In the eyes of the rest of the action team, Cao Han seemed to still be "standing" in the same place until the action team member closest to him fell to the ground in the snow and ice and made a sound. At that time, the original "Cao Han" gradually vanished into nothingness.
That was merely an afterimage created by moving too fast.
The team members who lay on the snow could only be described as having passed away peacefully. They were killed instantly by Cao Han's unreasonable strength without feeling much pain.
Although Cao Han moved too fast, no one could tell how he made his move. One second they were breathing the same air as their teammates, and the next they were lying on the ground, dead without knowing why.
A huge shadow of death loomed over everyone.
"don't want!!!"
"Let them go!!!"
"Move your legs! Get moving now!!!"
Trapped in the pit, Levi could only rage in vain, and faced with Cao Han, who was in the Time Zero Domain, he could only feel utterly powerless and desperate.
action?
He couldn't even decide what to do. It was as if, in the blink of an eye, his teammates, with whom he had lived and trained, were being harvested like wheat in a field.
The moment Cao Han reappeared in Levi's sight.
The once formidable team of dozens of people was reduced to just two breathing individuals, or more accurately, one, since the other was actually a dragon.
The near annihilation of the entire group was a devastating blow to Levi, who stared wide-eyed with bloodshot eyes.
It was as if the white expanse of heaven and earth before my eyes had been stained red with blood.
Cao Han deliberately placed that second-generation dragon at the very end.
He was treating this second-generation hybrid as the "main course," while the hybrids from the action team who had died before were just appetizers before the main course.
"Lin Yang."
"I am here."
Hearing Cao Han call his name gave Lin Yang a feeling of being called by the Grim Reaper, and he didn't dare to delay for a second, immediately running out from behind a car.
With his motion capture ability, he couldn't see Cao Han's movements clearly at all. He could only hear the sound of someone falling down first, and then he could find that another hybrid had died.
That is precisely why it instills a deep-seated fear in people.
This reminded Lin Yang of a name: Hilbert Jean Angers, the principal of Kassel College.
Rumors circulate that the same applies when Principal Angers targets people of mixed race.
The enemy couldn't even catch a glimpse of them; they were like ghosts walking along the timeline, each strike taking away a life.
"Contact Lucy Pallas, briefly explain the situation to her, and then have her notify the Academy's executive department to send someone to clean up the mess."
Also, keep a close eye on him; I'll need him later.
"Got it, I've got it covered."
Lin Yang took the phone from Cao Han, and what almost made him burst out laughing was... this person, who was so ruthless and decisive, had such a "girly" phone!
A pink Sony phone covered in various sparkling rhinestones.
Cao Han felt helpless about this, but there was nothing he could do.
After casually borrowing this phone from Su Enxi in Japan, I haven't had a suitable opportunity to change it.
His original plan was to return to school and ask his advisor, Schneider, to reapply for a dedicated device.
Most of the executive department specialists use mobile phones that have been modified by the equipment department. The original phones are still normal mobile phones on the market, but with added chips for functions such as anti-location and anti-theft.
For example, the anti-theft function.
After the equipment department modified the special mobile phone device, if the password is entered incorrectly six times in a row, it will lead to the much-anticipated step.
An ordinary cell phone has been transformed into a bomb that can explode instantly.
The explosion wasn't very powerful; it was only enough to shatter the entire phone into pieces.
In other words, even if their various electronic devices and equipment accidentally fall into the hands of the enemy, the leakage of intelligence can be limited to the greatest extent.
It's just that the plan can't keep up with the changes.
Cao Han can be considered an efficiency pioneer who "passed the school gate three times without entering." He has been out for almost a month now, with one thing after another to deal with, and he has no chance to go back to school at all.
It seems as if he was born with the divine body of a cow or horse.
"So......"
After handing things over to Lin Yang, Cao Han calmly faced the second-generation creature that hadn't moved a single finger the entire time. "There's still some time before the Execution Department comes to clean up the mess. I hope your abilities will please me!"
What a shame!
Cao Han's words would be an utter disgrace to any proud pure-blooded dragon, a humiliation that would be utterly scorned!
Back in the day, when dragons ruled the world, humans were nothing more than ants crawling at their feet.
Unexpectedly, the roles have now been reversed.
Malphite is a rare "wise man" among dragons, unlike most dragons who are obsessed with "power" and "strength".
Even the high and mighty Black King Nidhogg is no exception.
Otherwise, when He created the four monarchs, He wouldn't have made the Dragon Kings into twins, each holding power and authority respectively.
That's because the Black King only saw these two things.
Malphite comes from the most laid-back Ocean and Water faction, unlike the Bronze and Fire King and the Earth and Mountain King who are constantly fighting, as well as the Sky and Wind King who are always stirring up trouble.
Most dragons belonging to the ocean and water element are of a relatively "laid-back" type.
The vast ocean is their best habitat, where they don't need to fight to the death for resources. This is why marine species in the deepest seas tend to be more exaggerated in size.
The fact that the partnership with the doomsday faction can only be described as a "fortuitous coincidence".
Murphy is one of the remnants who escaped from the "Swan Harbor incident".
The Black Serpent, the king of the ocean and water who wielded "power," perished in Swan Harbor. His body was taken away by the Lenin and eventually sank into the Japan Trench, becoming the "breeding ground" needed for the White King to awaken.
One of the conditions for His cooperation with the Doomsday Faction was that He hoped they could help Him find the "Supreme One," the bone flask that the Black Serpent had hidden for cocooning and rebirth.
Do you think Malphite is a loyal black serpent who wants to revive the king of the sea and water?
That would be a gross underestimation of His ambition!
Murphy didn't want these things; he wanted to completely devour the bone flask, steal the power, and become the new king of the sea and water!
The persistent threat of death haunting Murphy's mind caused every cell in his body to emit danger signals.
From the moment Cao Han made his move, it wasn't that He was unwilling to take action, but rather that He dared not!
