"Are not you afraid?"
He Ao turned his head and looked at Thorne's men who were driving beside him.
"ah?"
At this moment, this subordinate was holding the steering wheel tightly with both hands and looking nervously ahead. He Ao's greeting made his hands tremble, and the slowly moving vehicle shifted to the side.
However, he immediately straightened the steering wheel, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He stared at the road ahead without looking at He Ao, "I don't understand what you said."
"What I mean is, take a look at the laser cannon at the back. If you open the door now, you still have a chance to survive."
He Ao glanced at the rearview mirror and said calmly.
"Do it!"
The moment He Ao said these words, before the driver could react, the two Thorne's men sitting in the back row immediately roared, rushed up from behind, and pounced on He Ao, trying to restrain him.
Live in Heao's body.
At this time, the driver nervously pressed the autopilot button and pounced sideways on He Ao.
It seems that the people in this car are all Thorne's absolute confidants, the kind who are willing to die for Thorne.
The laser cannon at the rear quickly completed automatic aiming.
The laser cannon Thorn had been inspected and tested, and he dared to buy it only if there were no problems.
At such a close distance, the modified G-04's overclocking blow is enough to damage the C-class.
He Ao shrugged, and his body shook violently, sending those around him flying away.
Then he directly put his right hand on the door handle of the jeep, and suddenly exerted force on his arm. The hard and smooth steel door wrinkled, protruded, and curled like paper.
Accompanying this process was a sudden muffled sound. The steel door was pushed open without any hindrance, and the bolt of the alloy car lock was broken.
Then Ho jumped out.
All this happened in the blink of an eye. Thorne's men who were trying to restrain He Ao had just been thrown away by He Ao. Before they could react, He Ao had already successfully jumped out of the car.
And at this moment, the laser cannon at the rear burst out with bright light, instantly piercing the off-road vehicle.
As the molten heat wave swept around, when the bright laser cannon burst out, He Ao's figure had already flashed beside the off-road vehicle behind him.
The man sitting in the co-pilot quickly took it out and grabbed it, but was instantly stabbed through the throat with a sharp dagger.
He Ao looked at the back seat of the off-road vehicle. Thorne, who was sitting in the back seat, was nowhere to be found.
It seemed that Thorne had just used the help of those dead men to entangle He Ao and the cover of the laser cannon, and Thorne decisively jumped out of the car and ran away.
He never wanted to kill He Ao from the beginning, but wanted to seriously injure He Ao and create an opportunity for himself to escape.
He Ao pulled out the dagger and looked at his men who were sitting in the back row with Thorn just now. Blood flowed down the sharp blade.
"Do not kill me!"
The subordinate sitting in the back row immediately raised his hands and pointed in the direction behind He Ao, "Thorne is going that way!"
He Ao turned around, turned on Super Memory and took a look at the surrounding details in that direction, but saw no trace of Thorne's actions.
At this moment, the subordinate who was tremblingly giving directions just now and the driver raised their guns at the same time, aiming at the back of He Ao's head.
Their finger is on the trigger.
The next second, the sharp dagger pierced the fleshy neck, and bright red blood splashed on the cold roof of the off-road vehicle like spring water.
"You are loyal."
He Ao, who had already appeared on the left side of the off-road side, calmly pulled out the dagger. The sharp dagger spun in a brilliant pattern in the twilight, and then in the next second, it penetrated the driver's neck before he could adjust his body shape.
Bang bang——
The sound of several bullets being fired into the metal shell of the off-road vehicle echoed all around.
In the driver's wide eyes, the men sitting in the two off-road vehicles behind him had already poked their heads out, aiming at He Ao and shooting.
He Ao turned on his super memory, glanced around, and found traces of Thorne in the opposite direction.
Thorne was very careful, his steps were very light, leaving almost no obvious traces.
But in Chaoyi's eyes, these traces are so clear.
All the men on the off-road vehicle behind him ran out of the vehicle and used the cover of the off-road vehicle to attack He Ao.
He Ao withdrew his eyes from Thorn's footprints and glanced at these men. The next second, his body disappeared from the spot.
Huh——
Accompanied by the sound of flesh and blood bodies falling to the ground, the thin sound of gunfire was like the sound of rain that gradually stopped when the summer rain stopped, slowly returning to silence.
The twilight shines on the flowing blood, giving off a faint brown-gold fluorescence.
The thin and tall figure stepped over the spreading pool of blood and walked deeper into the street.
······
Boom——
"What the hell,"
Sitting behind the counter at the entrance of the store, the clerk of the modification shop who was playing games on a portable game console was startled by the door that suddenly opened, causing the death of the game character.
He stood up angrily and was about to greet the visitor's family when he saw a dark muzzle pointed at his forehead.
"Sir, do you want to buy something? Is there any machinery that needs to be modified?"
"Give me the bracelet, hurry up"
Thorne glanced at the clerk with cold eyes and said quickly.
"OK."
The clerk quickly took off his bracelet and handed it to Thorne.
"Unlocked."
Thorne glanced at Xi screen's bracelet.
"Okay, okay,"
With a smile on his face, the clerk quickly unlocked the bracelet and handed it to Thorne again.
Thorne took the bracelet and glanced behind him. He was now standing in front of the first store at the entrance of the street.
And this clerk was the first person he saw after entering the street.
There were not many pedestrians on the street outside, and the whole street was deserted.
At this time, the clerk saw Thorne looking back outside, and then quietly touched his hand under the counter, where there was a black pistol.
The modification shops in the West District have some gang connections behind them, and they are even gang industries themselves.
Thorne, who was looking at the street, turned back, glanced at the clerk, and pulled the trigger directly.
Then he stopped looking at the clerk, put away his gun, picked up his bracelet and walked out the door.
In the end, the clerk failed to reach the gun under the counter. His body leaned against the wall behind him and slid downward slowly, with blood covering his cheeks.
Thorne left the shop and rushed onto the street, running wildly.
While running, he took the unlocked bracelet and immediately clicked on the dialing interface of the bracelet, quickly inputting the phone number as he walked.
"Mr. Thorne, who do you want to contact?"
At this moment, a cold question suddenly sounded in Thorn's ears.
Thorne only felt a figure appear behind him at a speed he couldn't catch. His cold eyes looked over his right shoulder and looked at the bracelet on his hand.
This figure was so close to him, so close that the other party could easily stab a dagger into his back if he wanted to.
Thorne didn't know why the other party didn't kill him, but he didn't hesitate, rolled forward suddenly, then turned back and aimed at the figure and shot him.
His marksmanship was very good, and the shot hit the target in the eye.
boom--
With a soft sound under the dim light, the flying bullets were bounced off by the cold dagger blade.
Then the blade was slowly moved away, revealing the same cold gaze behind it.
"Jace, you said you wanted to let me go."
Thorne took two steps back and glanced around, wanting to grab a hostage. However, he found that the few pedestrians around him were frightened by the sound of the gunfire he just fired and fled in all directions. They were not within his reach.
interval.
"You have now left the Zarot area,"
He Ao looked at his face calmly, "And weren't you attacking me just now?"
"Jace, we can discuss anything. If you want money or people, I can give it to you."
Thorne looked at He Ao and backed away carefully.
At the same time, he held his finger on the bracelet and pressed the dial button.
"You seem to be hiding some information?"
The cold dagger passed through the gap between the fingers and scratched the edge above the palm of Thorn's hand holding the bracelet.
Thorne felt the cold blade, subconsciously let go of his hand, shrank back, and the bracelet in his hand fell to the ground.
"Jace, don't bully others too much."
Feeling the blade approaching, Thorne turned over and backed away, quickly distanced himself from He Ao, and looked at He Ao angrily.
He had realized that He Ao seemed to be playing a trick on him.
The laser cannon did not hurt He Ao, although he did not expect to use the weapon purchased from He Ao to hurt He Ao at first.
However, his subordinates did not give him enough time to escape. It was speculated that the injury on He Ao's back did not affect He Ao's actions. The absolute strength gap broke all his plans.
He now understood that he had been guided by He Ao from beginning to end.
He couldn't escape from He Ao by relying on his own strength alone.
He hesitated for a moment, then quickly opened and raised his teeth, and the tops of his upper and lower front teeth collided three times.
The twisted and terrifying blue light burst out from his mouth, and then pierced Thorn's skin and penetrated his body like a tube inserted into flesh and blood.
"ah!!!"
Thorne's body continued to swell, and thick, long strips like mechanical pipes squirmed under his skin, filling his body like a balloon, bursting his expensive-looking clothes.
Hidden in the mouth?
He Ao stared at Thorne's expanding body. This should be the extraordinary item Thorne used to protect himself.
It seems that Thorne did not get the genetic potion from the mysterious man, but he had a supernatural item with similar effects to the genetic potion.
This extraordinary item seems to have some ability to temporarily enhance Thorn's physical fitness.
He Ao mobilized his consciousness to look at Thorne. The originally weak energy in Thorne's body quickly expanded with the activation of this extraordinary item, crossing the limit of D-level and entering the threshold of C-level.
But it seems that the price required for this extraordinary item is extremely high, otherwise Thorne would have used this item when Hexi 'invited' him.
Even if there was some room for relaxation in the situation and some hope of life, Thorne would not activate this extraordinary item.
"Jace, look, you are not the only one with such powerful power."
The abundant power made Thorne's confidence expand to an unprecedented level. This was the first time he came into contact with C-level power. This power was as intoxicating as the most beautiful poppy flower.
Compared with this power, he was as weak as an ant before.
Now he somewhat understood why He Ao didn't kill him directly just now.
Because he doesn't deserve it.
His own strength is too weak, so weak that even He Ao disdains to regard him as an enemy worthy of attention.
But it's different now.
Along with this power comes courage and the desire to kill.
He is now looking at He Ao, as if he were looking at a fat mass of fat. The whispers from the depths of his soul echo in his ears, asking him to kill the enemy in front of him, plunder the opponent's flesh and blood, and stuff the opponent's limbs into
in one's own body.
He Ao stared at Thorne at this moment, watching the protrusions like energy pipes constantly beating under Thorne's skin.
Watching his tall body expand nearly three times.
There is almost no change in the size of this body. The entire body seems to be made of piles of flesh and blood, and every inch of flesh and blood is pulsating. They seem to have their own consciousness and are eager to devour other flesh and blood.
And this crazy state has obviously infiltrated Thorne's consciousness, making this conservative and cautious middleman emit a rare greedy desire to kill.
He stared at He Ao and opened the corners of his mouth, revealing huge teeth like wild beasts covered with sticky saliva.
"Jace, you seem confident that you can defeat me?"
When the extraordinary item was activated, He Ao had the opportunity to launch an attack, but He Ao did not. Instead, he allowed Thorn's body to expand and complete the strengthening.
Although He Ao had just launched an attack, Thorne was confident enough to dodge it, but he felt contempt from He Ao's attitude.
He looked at He Ao with a ferocious smile, and made a sound similar to mechanical vibration, "You will pay the price for your arrogance."
"You should be happy now,"
He Ao looked at Thorn calmly, at the shadow that almost spread to the flesh and blood giant at his feet, "It's like a drowning person sees a straw, and a person in the abyss sees a slit of light. You touch it in despair."
hope."
He slowly raised the dagger in his hand. The last trace of the sunset was submerged by the end of the city, and the hazy night gradually fell.
The automatic street lights on the street slowly turned on.
"You know," He Ao looked at Thorne with a smile, "Tini also had hope like this."
He raised his feet and stepped forward step by step under the dim light.
Thorne stared at the thin man and his smiling face. He subconsciously took a step back, and his huge mountain-like flesh trembled.
Strength did not bring him real courage, as if what stood before him was not a thin human being, but an evil ghost returning from hell.
The twisted and crazy soul is crowded under the thin and gentle body.
"do you know,"
He Ao raised his head and stared at the giant in front of him. His tone was very calm, as if he was narrating someone else's story, "When I arrived at the hospital, the doctor told me that Tini did not have to die.
"Three bullets hit her body, one in the lung, one in the shoulder, and one in the abdomen. They were not in fatal places. As long as she gets timely treatment, she will survive."
"What do you want to say?"
Thorne looked down at He Ao's thin body and took a step back again.
The light fell on his head, shortening his shadow.
The dim yellow light shone on He Ao, drawing out two slender shadows behind him, like two towering ghosts.
He Ao raised his hand and looked down at the time on his bracelet, five forty-three.
Then he raised his head and looked at Thorne,
"Did you hear it?"
"What did you hear?"
Thorne frowned, and the murmurs that had been surging in his mind seemed to have stopped at this moment, squeezed by the terrifying madness of the person in front of him.
"The sound of an ambulance."
He Ao's tone remained stable and calm.
He stared at the surrounding streets, at the dim lights, and seemed to have passed through these lights, through the stacked time and space, and returned to that evening four years ago, back to the noisy venue.
The gunman stood in the center of the venue and laughed crazily. The roaring gunshots were mixed with the screams of the people.
The siren of an ambulance could be heard outside the window.
The clock on the wall read 5:43 pm.
The woman who fell behind the podium struggled to crawl towards the door from a pool of blood.
At that moment, she may have been full of hope.
That hope lasted until the gunman in the center of the venue looked at her again.
If it was really a psychotic shooter, maybe she might still survive.
But there are no ifs in this world.
The shooter is not really mentally ill, but a killer with a clear goal.
The whistling bullet hit the back of her head, and the gunshots that followed like raindrops shattered her body and annihilated her life.
When the ambulance arrived, when she thought she was about to be saved.
Just when she thought she could go home.
······
"You're crazy."
Thorne stared at the man in front of him, fear stimulating his soul and stimulating him to make the final act of madness. He did not hesitate to reach out his hand and grab He Ao's body, trying to tear the thin figure into pieces.
"maybe."
The scene in that time was fragmented little by little. It was the scene that Jace had seen on the surveillance camera at the venue.
He Ao turned around and looked at the captured Thorn in front of him. He took a step forward and dodged Thorn's attack, "But are you really normal?"
The change of position caused the two long shadows behind him to close together little by little until they completely overlapped.
For a long time after his parents passed away, Jess had already given up his persistence and the mysterious realm. He only wanted to maintain his last stable family and his wife who worked and worried about him day and night.
What he wants is just an ordinary and ordinary life, just a normal life.
The sharp dagger cut through the seemingly thick flesh, exposing the light blue beating blood vessels inside.
The violent flesh and blood giant twisted its body angrily, trying to attack the phantom figure, but in the end it only added more and more wounds.
Blood with a blue glow splashed down like raindrops in the darkening night.
In the end, the huge body fell down like a mountain, quietly falling into eternal silence.
His eyes widened, a look of fear, despair and disbelief mixed on his cheeks. His body was shattered from behind, as if he had been hit by a rain of bullets.
He Ao put away the dagger, put the tooth stained with blue light into his pocket, then squatted down and picked up the bracelet that fell on the ground.
The call on the bracelet was not dialed until the end and remained on the dialing interface.
He Ao wrote down the phone number on it, threw the bracelet back, and slowly walked into the dim night.
His hand stopped on his chest, holding the pendant stained with blood.
A taxi stopped at the end of the road ahead. The taxi driver stuck his head out and looked at He Ao, who was walking step by step in the darkness, "The taxi you reserved? Where are you going?"
