The Death List Novel - Chapter 318

Chapter 318 Battle of the Dark Beasts
“Growing to be stronger than anyone else, just simply pursuing strength. This is that fellow’s creed!” The macheteman stroked his chin and muttered to himself, “A single firearm used by the gang alone can’t do any harm to Watkin’s body.”

“Yes, he is the strongest person in the brigade!” The chivalrous man looked down at Watkin, who had entered the sheep herd. He smiled and replied, “It’s like a gorilla dealing with an ant. It’s really hard for them to specially come here to die!”

He had the best relationship with Watkin and didn’t play cards with his companions. He just stood by the cliff side with a sunny smiling chivalrous man and swept the array for Watkin who was in battle. If the situation wasn’t right, they would lend a helping hand.

…

“So strong … is this the Phantom Brigade?” Coolapika looked at the scene in the telescope and said in a heavy tone, “The guns are useless against him. The gangs that rushed over have all been exterminated. I’m afraid this batch won’t last long.”

“Really?” Da Zuonie asked in disbelief.

“See for yourself!” Coolapika sighed and handed him the binoculars. “The spiritual energy on his body can be clearly seen with the naked eye, and … the scene of corpses scattered all over the valley,” he said solemnly.

“That guy tore people apart like paper. Do we have to fight against such a person?” Koboldman Skuwara spread out his hands and said resolutely, “This is simply courting death. I will definitely not go!”

“The same goes for me. I’m afraid I won’t be able to defeat him no matter what.” Bi Xin shook his head and added indifferently.

“… Indeed!” Da Zuonie lowered his binoculars somewhat unwillingly and had to admit that he and the others were powerless. “However, we can’t just retreat like this. We have to think of a way …”

“Wait, there seems to be a heartbeat behind us!” The melody suddenly interrupted Da Zuonie, a drop of cold sweat hanging from his forehead. They weren’t far from the valley. If the brigade made dumplings from the rear, they would be in a dilemma.

Everyone was shocked at the same time and hurriedly turned around to look. On the mountain path leading to the open valley behind them, an earth dragon wriggled towards them, as if a giant python was shaking its head and swaying its tail beneath the ground.

Everyone quickly dispersed, surrounding the earth dragon to form a semicircle. However, the creature below didn’t seem to have any ill intentions towards them. The earth dragon rushed to the front of the crowd and a wriggling meat worm emerged from the ground.

This chubby purple meat worm quickly wriggled in front of everyone and turned into a slender purple-skinned man.

“I’m an earthworm from the Dark Beast. Which organization are you from?” The purple-skinned man tilted his head and asked.

“We are the bodyguards of the Norstra Family.” Da Zuonie heaved a sigh of relief and replied solemnly.

“Looks like you are also psychics.” The earthworm swept its gaze around everyone and nodded. “However, the battle here is not something you can participate in. It’s better to go back quickly!”

“Those people are not ordinary fellows. They are all super criminals who kill people like drinking water.” In the darkness behind the earthworm, three odd-looking eccentrics slowly walked out. “Experts should be in charge of dealing with them!”

“I’m a sick dog!” One of the three, a tall and thin man with a sickly face, said indifferently. Then, he pointed at Fatty and the dwarf on his left and introduced, “They are leeches and porcupines.”

“Leave the Phantom Brigade to us Dark Beasts.” The earthworm dived back into the ground and walked calmly towards the open valley with the other three.

“Captain Da Zuonie!” After the four Dark Beasts entered the valley, a familiar voice came from behind Coolapika and the others.

“Qin Lun!” Da Zuonie looked at the young man in surprise. “You’re here, too. Where are Mr. Yin and Ms. Lisa?”

“They have already left York City!” Qin Lun smiled and replied, nodding at Coolapika and the melody.

“Aren’t you participating in the battle?” Da Zuonie pointed at the four people in the valley in surprise, “Then they …”

“Haha, the Dark Beasts are a large organization. They are only hired by the Mafia. They are the direct Dark Beasts of the Tenth Old Man, but we are not.” Qin Lun waved his hand and explained the complicated relationship between the Dark Beasts with a smile.

“Yin and Lisa asked me to stay here just to return the favor. After all, without Miss Nyon’s prophetic poem, I’m afraid the three of us will be buried in the auction house.”

“Qin Lun, what do you think of the next battle?” Coolapika asked cautiously with a divine light flashing in his eyes.

“I don’t know the abilities of those four Dark Beasts. It’s not easy to judge.” Qin Lun smiled and said, “Wait and see.”

The young man looked towards the empty space with deep meaning in his eyes. He did not think highly of the battle between the four Dark Beasts. Yin and Lisa had once told him that the yin beasts directly affiliated to the gang were not the strongest of the yin beast organizations, and their words were filled with disdain.

Although Yin and Lisa’s comments were a little exaggerated, Qin Lun believed that they should not be lying. Otherwise, Yin and Lisa wouldn’t have agreed to leave York City the moment they saw the video of his auction.

Da Zuonie and the others anxiously turned their heads and continued to observe the situation on the open space.

…

When the four Dark Beasts entered the valley, the members of the brigade who were playing cards on the cliff had a slight feeling. The chivalrous man threw down the cards in his hand and stood up.

“Watkin!” The chivalrous man pointed at the entrance of the valley and shouted at Watkin, “The Lord is here!”

“Hey hey, don’t come down. I haven’t had enough fun yet!” Watkin smiled sinisterly at the Dark Beast.

“Hey, don’t blame us if you’re dead!” The messenger angrily skimmed, sat down again, and greeted the others, “Forget about that guy, let’s continue playing cards!”

Apart from the earthworms underground, the other three Dark Beasts quickly arrived in front of Watkin.

“Dark Beast?” Watkin looked at the three and asked expressionlessly, “Where are the items?”

“Phantom Brigade?” The sick dog sneered and looked at the other brigade members on the cliff. “Isn’t your companion coming down?”

“I can deal with you all by myself.” Watkin pinched his fingers calmly.

“Is that so?” The sick dog remained unmoved and sneered as he narrowed his eyes.

At this moment, the hard rock ground beneath Watkin’s feet suddenly exploded. Earthworms jumped out of the ground like lightning, fiercely punching Watkin’s face.

Watkin, who couldn’t even repel the machine gun, couldn’t help but take a step back under this punch.

However, what was even more shocking was that the earthworm’s fist instantly broke, and its five fingers were almost twisted into a twist by the backlash of the fist force.

“Hey, it’s interesting!” Watkin grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. He straightened his upper body and punched the earthworm in the face. The Dark Beast’s right cheek was abruptly beaten into a pancake shape. It looked like half of its cheek bones had been shattered.

However, the earthworm was a Yin Beast that had experienced hundreds of battles after all. The moment it was sent flying, it flipped its hand and grabbed Watkin’s left arm. It plunged into the ground and firmly stuck the burly man into a crack in the rock.

“Now you have nowhere to run.” The earthworm’s cold laughter came from the ground, “Haha, choose a way to die! Did I pull you into the ground and bury you alive, or were you dismembered by my three companions on the ground?”

“Success!” The three of them sneered and surrounded him.

“Idiot, in this way, won’t you have nowhere to run yourself?” Watkin slowly raised his empty right fist and sighed helplessly, “I thought the Dark Beast would be more fun. It’s truly disappointing!”

A layer of dense spiritual energy rose from Watkin’s body and instantly gathered on his right fist. The entire fist actually emitted a resplendent red light like a diamond, and it abruptly hammered towards the rocky ground beneath him.

“Boom!” A fierce explosion sounded from the valley clearing. Large amounts of spiritual energy flashed out from the ground. The rock layer was completely pierced through like tofu. The spider web-like cracks rapidly expanded on the ground. Countless rocks burst out and splashed, turning into powder in the surging waves of spiritual energy.

In an instant, a huge crater that was more than three meters deep and twenty meters in diameter appeared on the ground.

Standing at the bottom of the pit, Watkin grinned and pulled off a broken arm on his left hand. This was probably the only “relic” left by the earthworm in this world.

…

“Oh … I’ve never seen someone with this level of mental ability before!” Looking at the giant stone pit in the middle of the open space, Da Zuonie and the others revealed incredulous looks. “They are not on the same level as us at all.”

“Super Destructive Fist!” Qin Lun glanced at the prompt on the death list and smiled. To him, the death of an earthworm was very valuable, at least forcing out Watkin’s ability to read.

However, the young man suddenly frowned and glanced at Coolapika beside him. He keenly sensed that something was amiss with the youth, so he immediately glanced at the melody beside him.

“Look behind that person.” The melody seemed to know what Qin Lun wanted to ask and quietly pointed at Watkin.

Qin Lun turned around and his gaze instantly froze. Watkin’s punch just now tore open his upper clothes, revealing a strange and ferocious spider tattoo on his back and waist.

“Is it exciting?” Qin Lun looked at Ku Lapika, whose pupils were slowly turning red, and revealed a meaningful smile.

…

“Alright, who will be the next one to die?” Watkin turned to look at the remaining three Dark Beasts.

“Don’t get too smug. You’ll be the only one dying!” The death of his companion and Watkin’s arrogant attitude immediately aroused the fury of the Dark Beast, and they all pounced towards Watkin.

“Haha, that’s good. I like you guys who aren’t afraid of death.” Watkin couldn’t help but laugh out loud and clenched his fists and punched at the porcupine that was pouncing right in front of him. “Then go die!”

However, in the next moment, he was slightly stunned. His fist was stabbed with countless needle-like hairs, and he was actually unable to kill the porcupine with a single punch.

“I can freely manipulate my hair to soften or stiffen it, like a mattress when it’s soft and like a steel needle when it’s hard.” The porcupine sneered confidently, “No matter how powerful your fist is, it will be useless if you can’t attack.”

Chi! Just as Watkin was shocked, a black figure flashed past him like lightning.

Watkin’s gaze turned cold as he fiercely punched out, but the black shadow nimbly dodged it. At the same time, blood suddenly surged on his shoulder, and his steel body, which was unable to be damaged by rockets, was actually injured and bleeding.
