Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 583
Chapter 583: True Colors
“Commander Su?”
The gang leaders stood at the entrance to the VIP room and stared at him.
“I’m fine. I’ll mobilize forces now to get rid of the fire at Rose’s territory.” Su Lun forced a smile and walked outside.
Two built and fully armed bodyguards immediately followed behind him.
Su Lun frowned a little.
The two bodyguards spoke at the same time. “Vice Gang Leader, we’re already very regretful that we couldn’t stop Meng Chao from ambushing you just now.
“We swore to Mr. Jin before that we’d rather have our bones crushed than let you lose half a fingernail. Please be at ease, we’ll definitely not let the same thing happen again!”
Su Lun pondered this for a while before he nodded. He did not reject the two bodyguards’ good will.
He first arrived at the temporary equipment warehouse and got himself a set of light motorized armor that was suitable for his build.
Then, he returned to the room where Meng Chao first ambushed him. He stared at the hole at the center of the room. It led straight underground and was still burning. Thick, black smoke came out of it, and screams could be heard from the floors below.
“Vice Gang Leader?” The two bodyguards were puzzled. “Are you thinking about going down? It’s really chaotic down there, and you’re not that strong…”
“It’s precisely because the situation down there is so chaotic that I must go down and take a look. It’s so I can give orders effectively.” Su Lun smiled. “Naturally, I’m not strong enough to be able to put up a proper fight, but Phantom Bear Xiong Wei is down there, and I have plenty of loyal lair fighters around me as well. I even have the both of you ready to risk your lives to protect me, so why should I be afraid?”
As he spoke, he jumped down without hesitation.
The two bodyguards exchanged a glance before they followed after him.
Xiong Wei was growing more and more enraged by the chaotic terrain under the coliseum. The berserk monsters and fighters were attacking everything in a frenzy because of their panic, and they blasted the walls apart until the maze-like underground was in pieces. The place looked like ruins.
What was even more terrifying was that the Demonic Black Mountain Bulls Meng Chao encountered were not the only ones affected. There were dozens of monsters who took in Deification Capsules ten times the dosage that a human could take. They self-combusted and turned into fireballs that rolled around the floor.
Another problem was that the vitality of monsters was much stronger than that of humans, and they also had a lot more fat.
Even after they turned into fireballs, they did not die. Instead, they sped up and crashed everywhere from the pain, which made the burning fat spill everywhere.
They were like napalm bombs taking part in 100m races. The smelly and poisonous flames spread all over the underground space.
The entire area was filled with red, orange, blue, green, yellow, and purple flames.
Fierce black smoke that looked like they were demonic organs squirming could be seen everywhere.
And monsters jumped out of the smoke all the time. They were burning and bared their teeth at anyone they saw.
Humans whose faces were even more monstrous than the monsters’ were all over the place, since their mental strength indices kept dropping, and they shouted while firing their guns and swinging their weapons.
Chaos. Chaos. Chaos. The entire underground space was full of chaos.
Red Brows Su Lun moved calmly through the fiery, hellish, and chaotic world.
He first went to the place with the loudest and densest cries for murder, where he ran into many fighters whose armor were in tatters. They were badly battered and covered in wounds.
“What’s going on?” he asked sternly after grabbing one of their collars. “Where is Gang Leader Xiong?”
“H-He’s ahead. More than ten monsters surrounded Gang Leader Xiong, and he’s them in a killing frenzy!” the fighter answered in a panic.
Perhaps it was because there was a strange attraction force between vitality magnetic fields, but the powerful people released incredibly dazzling spirit flames that made them look like burning torches in the darkness, which attracted monsters to them.
If one did not bother to suppress their vitality magnetic field or restrain their breathing and heartbeat, they would become a huge target for monsters.
Many monsters acted like insects attracted by the light. Like moths flying to flames, they would charge at the powerful humans, as if they had self-destructive tendencies.
Hence, it was not strange that Phantom Bear Xiong Wei was surrounded by a large batch of monsters.
Of course, even if the monsters shut under Mutual Gold Coliseum ate a large amount of Deification Capsules, they still did not manage to become Apocalyptic Beasts.
The Demonic Black Mountain Bull was already one of the strongest.
Hence, the monsters would be unable to kill Phantom Bear Xiong Wei just by themselves.
A spark appeared in Su Lun’s eyes. He continued downward and walked to the even more chaotic and dark battlefield.
The two bodyguards followed him. They were puzzled, but they did not dare to question or suspect Su Lun’s actions.
They bypassed a few battlefields where the sounds of gunfire and monster roars were mixed together.
They gradually entered a dark tunnel filled with smoke.
Not a single human was in the area.
Of course, there were no monsters around either.
Finally, one of the bodyguards was unable to hold back from speaking. “Vice Gang Leader, I don’t think there are monsters here.”
“No. There is,” Su Lun said with a smile.
In a flash, two huge black pythons suddenly flashed down like lightning from the smoke-covered ceiling above the two bodyguards. They opened their mouths and bit down on their heads.
No, those snakes were not pythons. They were ferocious beasts similar to the Slit-mouthed Anaconda!
The difference was that compared to normal pythons, these creatures could open their mouths in six different directions at once and eat prey that was five times larger than their heads.
Also, their mouths were covered in dozens of densely packed rows of teeth that trembled at a high frequency.
No matter how sturdy a skull was, it would instantly be ground to powder.
Besides, the two beasts had eaten a lot of Deification Capsules. All their scales stood up high, and sparks flew out of them when they knocked into each other, as if they were blades crashing into each other.
Even if the two bodyguards wore helmets and armor, the metal let out cracking sounds in the super pythons’ mouths. Those sounds he bodyguards’ skins crawl, because it was the sound of their helmets shattering.
Their surprised cries and pained screams were muffled by the huge pythons’ mouths.
The men wanted to draw their sabers and guns, but the two super pythons had already bound them like nooses on gallows. The pythons locked their limbs together and used all their strength to constrict them.
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
The two bodyguards’ joints bent in the opposite direction. They shattered, and white bones pierced their skin.
The bodyguards started spasming violently.
But the huge pythons just brought up their tails.
The ends of their tails were covered in a corneous substance. It made them look like sharp awls that reminded of the tails of scorpions, but were dozens of times larger.
Thud! Thud!
The two monster tails pierced the armor and stabbed into the two guards’ chests.
Their violent spasms instantly ended.
The two huge pythons continued constricting until they crushed the armor and bones into mush. Then, they slowly let go and used three tongues that were as agile as those of anteaters to pry open the humans’ crushed armor so they could feast on the delicious flesh.
Su Lun remained expressionless and did not get himself involved. He just watched calmly on the side.
What was even stranger about this was that the two huge pythons should have gone berserk after taking in Deification Capsules, but they did not seem to have noticed his existence. They did not even look at him and only focused on eating the meal before them.
When the huge pythons swallowed the two bodyguards’ heads and Su Lun was certain they were absolutely dead, he quietly vanished into the darkness.
This time, he was much faster than before.
In fact, he was so fast that he surpassed the speed that a military adviser with no fighting abilities should have.
When he saw burning or collapsed regions, he even moved on the walls or ceilings like a gecko and crept through narrow and winding cracks without hesitation, displaying great 3D mobility and spatial deduction abilities.
On his way, he saw humans fighting fiercely against monsters.
Layers of faint light appeared on him, which was similar to how a chameleon changed its colors. It was also similar to the optical camouflage created by spirit energy magnetic fields. It allowed him to blend into his surroundings, as if he had become one with the darkness.
Sometimes, he was discovered by some monsters with heightened senses, but the hungry and fierce monsters acted just like the two huge pythons earlier. They ignored him and ran past him to attack other humans.
Su Lun’s attention was not on the humans or monsters.
Instead, it was on the marks left in the battlefield around him.
More accurately speaking, he was looking for marks left by Meng Chao.
Sometimes, he would stop to rub his fingers carefully against the scratch marks, slashes, and marks left by impacts on the walls and floor.
At other times, he pressed his ear against the walls, floor, and ventilation pipes to listen to the sounds that came from different floors.
There were also times when he sank into contemplative silence.
Even if he had a helmet and goggles to hide his face, his eyes shone with a dark and sharp light.
Suddenly, he seemed to have heard a sound from the burning and continuously collapsing building.
He immediately turned into a practically invisible arrow and charged into the ruins.
He moved through two collapsed areas and stepped over corpses strewn all over the floor, then jumped down a flight of stairs with two parts broken off of it before going through a hole left in the floor.
The area underneath seemed to be the place where the fire had started.
The air was practically all gone there.
The entire area was filled with thick smoke, and hot poison was practically dripping on the ground.
Amid the crackling flames were humans shouts and screams.
Whoosh!
The light around Su Lun changed again. Like a drop of ink blending into a pool of ink, he blended into the smoke.
His posture when he moved through the smoke made him seem like a ball of slowly squirming smoke.
With the thick smoke providing cover, he soon locked down on the source of the noise.
And he saw an incredibly brutal sight.
It was Meng Chao and Lu Siya!
They seemed to have fought for a long time. Their skin was torn from all the fighting. Not even an inch of it remained unmarred.
Meng Chao was also badly burned and bruised. He looked like a demon who had just crawled out of hell.
Lu Siya might have had a motorized armor to protect her, but aside from her puffed out chest plate, everything else had shattered. Her shoulder guard, elbow guard, and knee guards were all gone, and her limbs were bent in unnatural angles.
Their blood gathered together into a bottomless pool.
Some of it had evaporated because of the flames and dyed the black smoke a hideous shade of red.
