novelClashing Head-On
| ← Ch.663 | Ch.665 → |
Jeff shook his head and raised the device to his mouth with a large smirk on his face."Fight him to death."
Kanae's face changed as her body moved to attack Kevin. The man quickly raised his sword as the two of them clashed. Internally, Kanae was fighting with herself as she limited the strength that she exerted.
Even though it was the absolute order that she had to follow, she would never use her skill to attack Kevin. Her movement became slightly sloppier to her usual self, but those who didn't know her wouldn't be able to recognize this slight difference.
'Her strength.... '
Kevin sensed that the power that Kanae exerted was not as much as when she blocked his full power attack. He instantly understood that Kanae could fight back against the controller to some degree. All he had to do right now was hold back his strength to have this'spar' with her for the longest time.
The two of them have just started fighting when Patrick appeared with his spear stained in red color. Wet blood trickled down from the tip as he looked at the two of them with confusion.
"Why are you fighting him, Kanae?"
"She's controlled, " Kevin replied."Take the controller device from Jeff's hand, Uncle."
Patrick glanced at Jeff when he saw the small device on the latter's hand. His blood was boiling with rage as he stared at Jeff full of killing intent. Who dares to hurt his daughter?
Without any hesitation, he dashed towards Jeff. If this man decided to have Kanae attack him, Kevin would be free enough to charge at Jeff. After all, her strength and reaction speed couldn't possibly handle the two of them.
Jeff stayed calm and picked up his other device."Protect me."
Clang!
Patrick's spear clashed with another weapon. His eyes widened when he saw the monster-like-human or human-like-monster in front of him. No matter which angle he tried to see, the one before him resembled both human and monsters, which was quite scary.
His build was big, a bit bigger than himself. One of his hands looked like claws while the other one was normal. His two feet were covered in a layer of clothes, so he couldn't see them. However, he was pretty sure that they were not in normal condition. As for his face, he has one red eye with a wound across his face. Part of his hair was burnt, making it stood up like a Mohawk.
Although his appearance has become a mess, Patrick still recognized this man. After all, he had clashed with the other party a few times when he was young.
"Carlo Kanuri? The vice-leader of the Oval Group that was destroyed two-three years ago?" Patrick turned his head to Jeff with a sharp glint. If that was true, what had happened to this man over the course of time?
Jeff arched his eyebrows."I never knew that there's someone who still remembers him."
"He used to be my enemy."
"That's good, you can continue to be his enemy, " Jeff laughed."He's just a puppet now because of the various experiments Professor Taren does to him. Well, it's his fault in the first place that he accepts the invitation."
Patrick's eyes narrowed. He remembered the past event very clearly. Although the government covered the matter as groups' battle, he knew better that it was not like that. The one who won in the end was Fiore Group, but she didn't take the vial that was supposed to be hers.
Kanae told him that the vial was taken by Carlo by'force. ' Although he felt glad that she didn't take it, the disgusting sight of Carlo in front of him made him felt like they should have just smashed the bottle to the ground.
He might not like Carlo, but seeing him as a puppet like this was clearly another big no.
"Enough chit-chat, " Jeff raised the device near his mouth."Kill him, Carlo."
Without any hesitation, the monster's version of Carlo pounced towards Patrick. Patrick quickly attacked the man but realized that Carlo's reaction speed and strength has grown to a higher degree. He forcefully changed the trajectory of his spear as he attacked Carlo's shoulder, sending the man backward in an uneven manner.
"What did you do to him?" Patrick asked as rage filled his entire body. The Carlo he knew would never reach this level even if that man took his entire life to study martial arts.
Jeff shrugged."Just like you, he awakens his talent in middle age."
Carlo stood up and charged towards Patrick once again. With gritted teeth, Patrick blocked the attack and moved forwards. On the corner of his eyes, he could see the fight between Kanae and Kevin was not as intense as his.
It was not really apparent for ordinary people, but he could see that neither one of them used their real strength.
'They're stalling time. '
Patrick focused his attention to the monster Carlo in front of him. No matter what, he would not let them down and finish this man as soon as possible. The only thing that he could do to help Carlo was releasing him from being a puppet of Jeff.
Jeff watched the fight as he yawned. He only needed to control his voice to make sure that they kept on fighting. While he was waiting, he heard sounds of footsteps coming from behind him.
"Oh, Miss Vena, you're here, " Jeff greeted with a bright smile.
Vena nodded her head coldly. Her indifferent expression has never changed. Ever since she accepted her fate that she would never be able to get out of this place, she didn't place any importance on other people. All she had in her mind was how she could keep herself alive.
"Did he give another order?"
"He's in seclusion to consume the next medicine that Professor Taren gives, " Vena replied coolly."All we have to do is stall the time to not allow these rats to get close to him."
"Ah? He's going to be stronger again?" Jeff's pupil turned large. He had seen Ferdinand's power before, so he knew that this man was not an ordinary person. If his strength was raised to another level, he knew that there would not be many that could contend against him.
Internally, he shook his head lightly. Although he was not sure what Ferdinand's reason to get stronger so quickly, he knew that this man was someone who has strength beyond ordinary humans. Raising them for another level would mean that he would be invincible.
"More or less, " Vena replied.
Jeff nodded his head."Well, stalling time is easy. This is the greatest level of fight here."
Vena looked at the two fights. She was not familiar with martial arts because she abandoned them during her early age. In her opinion, it didn't really matter who would be stronger because she could get more power by controlling people around her.
"Let's make it harder for them, " Vena suggested.
Jeff arched his eyebrows. He smirked."What do you have in mind?"
Vena took out a gun from her back. She aimed towards Patrick with an indifferent expression."This."
BANG!
