Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 505
Chapter 505: The Only Person Worthy of Hunting
If Meng Chao’s reaction speed had been 0.01 seconds slower, the sharp blade that was as thin as a cicada’s wing, nearly invisible, and had no shadow or form would have pierced his temple and sank into his brain.
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang had indeed seen through him, but he did not choose to attack at the moment they passed each other.
Instead, he pretended to be ignorant to make Meng Chao relax his guard.
He then used some sort of method to move in front of Meng Chao and attack him through the wall.
The reinforced concrete appeared to be thick, but to a Heaven Realm superhuman, it was no different from a wet newspaper.
Meng Chao felt the sharp blade brush past his nose.
It cut his skin, and the pain pierced his brain.
But he did not panic nor continue retreating.
Instead, he used the stretch of his cervical spine and muscles to fling his head back and bite down on the blade.
He poured his spirit energy into his teeth so they would be as sturdy as steel. Like that, he could even crush a Hell Beast’s bones to powder.
The blade got stuck between his teeth and did not move for a period of time.
Right away, Bloody Soul shot out from under Meng Chao’s cloak, and with a thud, it sank into the wall from which the blade came.
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang did not expect that Meng Chao would be so alert and courageous.
Not only did he not fall for his trick, he even decided to fight with his life on the line, like some lunatic.
Since he was behind the wall, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang could not swing his thin, shadowless saber.
He immediately made his decision and let go, allowing Meng Chao to take away the shadowless saber.
But he pressed his hands on Bloody Soul’s blade and caught the blade barehanded.
Everything happened too quickly, so both sides did not have time to activate the crystals on their sabers or the killing moves that had already been stored in the runic matrices.
They could only activate their vitality magnetic fields to the max and have them crash into each other crudely. It was as if two waves had rammed into each other with the wall between them.
Boom!
The reinforced concrete instantly shattered.
Debris and dust circled and rubbed against each other at high speed while stuck between the vitality magnetic fields. They turned into blinding sparks and fell on their heads like a meteor shower.
Both of them could not open their eyes because of the sparks.
Meng Chao seized the chance to turn his neck and yanked away Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang’s shadowless saber.
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang did the same and stole Meng Chao’s Bloody Soul.
Meng Chao did not even think. He fired the chain that was encircled by electrical arcs, and it surrounded the second saber that Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang had just drawn, jamming it in place. Both of them were now stuck in the same situation.
Thud!
Meng Chao circulated his spirit energy and used his ability to control objects remotely to fire the shadowless saber at Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang’s face.
Bloody Slaughter Gao Yao threw away Meng Chao’s Bloody Soul and grabbed hold of his second saber with both hands. He summoned his strength to hold Meng Chao’s chain.
At the moment Bloody Soul landed on the floor, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang kicked its hilt, and Bloody Soul turned into a fierce, blood-red light that shot toward Meng Chao’s face.
All this happened within half a second.
It was enough time for them to exchange blows and run through dozens of shocking life and death offensive and defensive strategies in their heads.
In the end, both of them chose to pour spirit energy under their legs and blow through the floor. It pierced the reinforced concrete under their feet, and they fell into an underground maze.
With this method, both of them dodged the fatal attacks that were coming straight at their faces.
They also grabbed their main weapons once more.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
While they were still falling and had yet to regain their balance, they eagerly exchanged the second round of attacks with their enemy.
This time, there was no longer a wall blocking them. Now, they were just competing in terms of strength and speed, and their movements had no flourish whatsoever.
In just three seconds, they exchanged more than one hundred blows.
They were both using sabers that could cut through metal as easily as mud and had unstoppable sharpness, but it felt like they were using heavy warhammers and maces.
Their limbs were like four pile drivers, and their bodies were two large demolition machines.
Not a single floor could withstand their rampaging, monstrous strength.
They created holes that were each more ridiculous than the last on every floor they passed as they fell deeper underground.
In no time, they fell through more than ten floors.
When the Leprosy Village villagers heard the noise, they ran with their hands covering their heads.
The reinforced concrete above their heads was also affected by the shockwaves and spirit energy magnetic fields, so it collapsed and fell down as well.
Both of them fell to the bottommost level of the building.
Right then, there was a sturdy foundation and an even sturdier rock strata under their feet .
The debris that had fallen with them also blocked their paths once more.
However, the debris was not packed densely. The two could still see each other through the cracks.
But even if the debris was packed densely or it was a slab of concrete ten meters thick, it would not be able to stop them from sensing each other’s fierce killing intent.
Meng Chao gasped like an injured tiger.
To create the illusion that he was heavily injured and his spirit energy was drained, when he fell and fought Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang, he did not fight with his full strength. He only used 70%, and he had even intentionally made his spirit energy output hitch to make it look like it was really unstable.
As a result, new, deep wounds had been left on his right purlicue, wrist, elbow, and shoulder blade. They were so deep that his bones could be seen.
Fresh blood dripped down like from an open tap. The sound when it hit the ground was really obvious in the underground, which was as silent as a grave.
Rip!
But not even a single one of his eyelashes fell.
Meng Chao used his teeth to tear off a strip of cloth from his tattered cloak and bind his slightly trembling right hand together with Bloody Soul’s wet hilt.
Then, he narrowed his eyes and observed Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang on the other side of the debris.
The optical camouflage cloak Gao Yang wore was ripped to shreds by Meng Chao’s saber glares, revealing his metal-like built body.
Just like ace hunters and outdoor survival specialists, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang did not like wearing nano fighting suits.
Strong superhumans like him believed that while nano fighting suits could increase the maximum output of their muscles and distribute the received damage, it would also weaken their skin and pores’ sense of their surroundings. It might even interfere with the spirit energy gushing out of their pores and stop it from circulating and resonating with the planet’s magnetic field.
Besides, once they got used to the increase in strength and the defense provided by nano fighting suits, when the fighting suit was destroyed, their fighting strength would drop rapidly, and it would turn into a fatal problem.
The old school superhumans had the utmost trust in their own bodies and believed that they were the best armor and weapon.
IBloody Slaughter Gao Yang’s distinctive muscles were like an impenetrable armor.
And the intersecting, dense scars as well as the shining spirit tattoos that surrounded them were domineering and shone like medals.
Meng Chao’s gaze moved from Gao Yang’s scars to his weapons.
During their first duel, Gao Yang only had two normal scimitars, and they were both crushed by Meng Chao’s Bloody Soul.
This time, this peerless criminal had switched to two brand new weapons.
There was no need to even mention the sharp saber in his left hand. It was as thin as a cicada’s wing, nearly invisible, and had no shadow or form.
Meng Chao’s gaze stayed on the saber in the man’s right hand for a long time. It was as sharp as a tiger’s fangs.
Meng Chao had seen the saber before, just a few hours ago, in fact.
It was not Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang’s weapon. It belonged to a veteran hunter called Sword Teeth Tiger, who was part of the hunting squad.
At that time, Meng Chao’s curiosity as a harvester had stirred when he saw how extraordinary the saber was based on how the light reflected from it. He asked a few questions about it and learned that more than one hundred fangs and leg bones from three high-grade Hell Beasts were used to create the saber.
Even if it was in the hands of a normal person, they would be able to cut the armor of a main battle tank as easily as if it was toilet paper.
It was no wonder then why only grain-sized chips had appeared on the blade after the fight against Meng Chao’s Bloody Soul that had lasted hundreds of rounds.
No superhuman would leave their weapon.
Meng Chao sighed. By the looks of it, Sword Teeth Tiger, the veteran hunter who was the original owner of the saber, was already dead.
And just as expected, when Meng Chao shifted his gaze to Bloody Slaughter Gao, he saw a necklace on his neck.
It was made of bloody human ears.
Meng Chao knew that many old school hunters loved cutting off the ears of large monsters weighing dozens of tons, because they were difficult to move whole. Sometimes, they would also cut off other parts that were unique to the monster they killed, which would serve as a symbol of their achievements.
In this “hunting ground”, the only “creatures” worthy of being acknowledged by Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang were, without a doubt, Heaven Realm superhumans.
‘He has already killed three Heaven Realm superhumans?’ Meng Chao coolly spat out a mouthful of bloody spit.
The sight was like fuel for his killing intent, and he could not control it anymore.
‘If that’s the case, I can’t spare you anymore. Even if I die here, I have to hold you back. With each second I hold you back, the chances of the heavily injured veteran hunters escaping will increase, and our chances of launching another attack will get higher!’
While Meng Chao was sizing up Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang, the infamous, peerless criminal was also carefully sizing him up in exchange.
He was like a hungry demon in the depths of hell who had just discovered a tasty banquet.
They were engaged in a stalemate for a long time. Then, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang suddenly grinned and did something Meng Chao did not expect.
He yanked off the three human ears on his neck and stuffed them into his mouth. Then, he started chewing on them with loud crunching noises.
In the face of Meng Chao’s shocked and puzzled expression, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang chewed and cackled. “Today, I’ve already killed three prey, but after I met you, I’ve realized that they didn’t have the right to be my prey at all.
“Compared to you, they were weak and stupid. Veteran hunters? They didn’t even have the most basic awareness. They were just pigs waiting to be slaughtered.
“While I was killing them, it was just a boring butchering session. It was not a real hunt.
“Your ears are the only ones worthy of being around my neck.
“You’re also the only one worthy of me absorbing every bit of energy and mobilizing every bit of my intelligence and strength to carry out an exciting hunt that I will enjoy to my heart’s content!”
