Pattaya used to be a quiet place, but remains had been much sought after ever since the regeneration of Spirit Qi, as countless people tried to gain something from them. Not to mention others, Li Yixiao's Black Dragon Spear alone was his greatest advantage as it complemented his weakness in far-range attacks.
In fact, his close combat capabilities were much stronger than the majority, coupled with his tough skin and the mighty Tiger Fist. Nonetheless, it was still way too simple for a Metahuman and was full of loopholes. Now things had changed, with the Black Dragon Spear as one of his trump cards.
On the other hand, Nie Ting's Xin Ting had remained a mystery, for no one was capable of forcing out his last resort.
Sometimes the more mysterious your trump card was, the more dangerous you appeared. Nie Ting was rather good at this.
Remains were of the highest importance, which was a consensus among all. Almost one fifth of the world's most brilliant experts would gather here and vie for the treasures.
Whereas the rest, while with the heart to join, they had no alternatives but to stay back and guard their base. It would be pointless if one's own assets got stolen when their eyes were on the remains.
Despite the rich resources in the remains, it was not justified to risk all one had for them. Therefore, most organizations only dispatched some of their most elite soldiers for the mission, all with a second thought on their mind, to rob those who had not enough power back home...
It was only just last month, that there was a pillage of unguarded magical beasts and mines. Actually, Metahumans needed Spirit Qi as well. Otherwise, why the creation of Metahumans from the regeneration of Spirit Qi?
Lu Shu, however, did not feel as strongly as he did not need Spirit Qi at all. Strength-type Metahumans were special because they required no further power replenishment for their awakening.
Usually, the growth of one's power took ages after a breakthrough. The same happened for Little Fury, who improved itself with slow absorption of worldly Spirit Qi after getting past a bottleneck, until he reached his success.
A thought suddenly struck Lu Shu, with abundant fortune at hand currently, maybe he could consider a generous investment in Big Cat, Little Fury and Naughty Pig with his magical stones and refresher fruits.
No matter what, Luo Cheng would be his base. So why not train a few top-tier fighters?
Although it had been a month since the confirmation of the opening of Pattaya remain, those who had gathered here still tried to refrain from conflicts.
For instance, when they ran into the other earth-type Metahuman just now, it was more or less a friendly encounter "You first" "Haha, thanks..."
As a matter of fact, at least a dozen groups here were enemies with one another due to the competition for interests and influence. But no one was willing to waste their energy before the opening of the remain.
After all, one could conveniently wipe out his foes during the fight for remain resources. Or rather, benefits could well be gained when other rivals had been exhausted.
It was human nature. Everyone hoped to be the last man standing. Thus, the best strategy now was to seek cover while others fought till their last breath...
Of course, patience was not everyone's strength...
Covered in dust, Li Yixiao was almost furious. He wanted to let out a roar: Who the hell did this?!
Do you think it was so easy to have fun for once? Huh?!
Is there still justice in this world?!
The compound was humongous. Many started rising to their feet from the dirt. Li Yixiao's eyes were fixed on everybody, in an attempt to identify the culprit.
Meanwhile, the club managers, the human trafficking organization who tried to abduct Lu Xiaoyu, gathered together, with the unmistakable knowledge that their aggressor was a Class B earth-type Metahuman. They would not wait for another round of attacks although their opponent's intentions remained unclear.
As local scoundrels, they knew very well the sheer number of experts that now resided in Pattaya. If their energy was wasted on this, they might fall into deeper trouble when their plight was taken advantage of.
Do Class B's have some sort of magical weapons with them? This was a commonly wondered question.
Someone lowered his voice and commanded in English, "Leave by sea. Don't stay here any longer."
Li Yixiao could not understand English, but he could identify that the twenty plus people who were retreating were Metahumans.
Should the club not be a place for pretty young girls? Where did all those Metahumans come from?!
Li Yixiao pondered for three seconds, "It must be them!"
That was intolerable. Who was Li Yixiao? The man who screwed everyone up in the Laos remain! Why was he so powerful?
It was because he was unafraid of death, and he would never die!
"Stop right there! No one leaves until I get an explanation!" Li Yixiao demanded, his Black Dragon Spear was already growling in his grip.
Stunned, those in front turned to look at him, but neither could they understand Li Yixiao's words. Confused, the Class B Metahuman frowned, "Could it be him?!"
This person jumped out immediately after the collapse of the building and looked as if he wanted to pick a fight. The only logical deduction was...
Language barrier was the cause of their misunderstanding, but facial expressions were a universal language and Li Yixiao's anger was apparent...
"Is he here for revenge? Was something wrong with the Practitioners we traded recently?" the Class B leader's brows were still knitted together. After a second thought, he decided, "Fall back and hide on the sea until the remain opens. It's not the time for a fight yet."
He made the right move, because he was well aware of how many people were waiting for his fall.
However, it did not mean Li Yixiao necessarily had his sanity as well...
"Stop! Don't run!" Li Yixiao shook his wrists as he darted forward. Instantly, the tip of the Black Dragon Spear opened up, from which a black dragon emerged at once with a loud roar!
On one hand, it was a hasty retreat while on the other, one was venting his sadness and anger. First of all, their intentions largely differed...
Some people had already recognized Li Yixiao in spite of his dusty appearance. After all, his giant build and the black dragon were almost symbolic.
Oh, it was him. We should not fight him, but we can try to secretly exterminate the one he was after...
Sometimes your vibe was extremely crucial in a fight. When you were surrounded by ten but you managed to kill one enemy while remaining unhurt, people will be scared of you afterwards. They would think twice before picking a fight with you again. First off, they could not be sure whether you could be defeated and second, they themselves might end up dead as well...
