The Death List Novel - Chapter 508
Chapter 508 Blood Crystal
“The one I would rather be welcomed is you!” Qin Lun rubbed his nose with a bitter smile.
Not only were the three people in front of them old acquaintances, they also had a life-and-death grudge against Qin Lun. The skinny white man was Dr. Leo Roberts, a biochemical expert from the Aryan Ark Forces during World War II, who had a biochemical giant bloodline as a result of an experimental accident.
Leo was loyal to Germany, but his wife Keller became a traitor during the Battle of Casablanca and was killed by Kieran. Originally, this was undeniable, but Qin Lun, or Joey at that time, had done too badly. Not only did he lie and trick Leo into making cannon fodder for him, he also broke his promise and used Keller as a human shield.
This kind of behavior made Leo’s hatred engraved on his bones, which was why he abandoned his companions of the Avengers and ran to seek revenge on him during the riots in the River of Death.
As for the other two beauties, they were Little Red Riding Hood Liv Goldman and Black Queen Mila from the Old Fairy Tale Girl Group. Although the two of them didn’t have a grudge against him for killing his wife, they weren’t inferior to each other.
Their teacher, Katrine the Green Huntress, was killed by Kieran in Casablanca. Of course, people like Liv and Mila had already looked down on life and death on the battlefield. Katrine’s death should not have made them feel so jealous.
However, Joey cut off Catherine’s head and put it into the amniotic fluid tank because of her abnormal artistic preference. In front of the Allied superhumans, he had created a “work of art” that resembled a crystal potted plant. It was equivalent to using a big move of mockery to thoroughly deepen the hatred between the two sides.
This had already escaped the battlefield’s hostilities and became a personal grudge between Hunter Greene and him. After the riots in the River of Death, the Fairy Tale Girls, like Leo, sensed Qin Lun’s existence. That was why they decided to split up the two of them to avenge Alcatel regardless of the danger.
“Monica, I don’t know what’s going on!” Before he descended the slope, a trace of worry flashed through Qin Lun’s heart.
The Sandstorm Queen might not have noticed any details, but it was impossible for her to let three superhumans sneak to Qin Lun’s side without any reaction. The biggest possibility was that she had encountered an accident.
“Good job!” The skinny Leo saw Qin Lun pouncing straight at him. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and his body immediately swelled up. His muscles were knotted. However, compared to the biochemical giant from before, the current White Giant had undergone a great change.
The first was that his skin was milky white, like polished marble. The second was that his muscles were well-defined, and his shoulders were bulging high, almost drowning his neck. The muscles on his back formed a strange face. His hands were hanging over his knees like gibbons.
One could tell at a glance that this body contained terrifying power. Apart from that, the most striking change was his eyes. The White Giant’s eyes were now completely unlike humans. It had no pupils and was completely pure white, causing people to be terrified.
Seeing Qin Lun make his move, the others stopped talking nonsense and pounced on their chosen opponents. Grant smiled sinisterly at the former Little Red Riding Hood Liv, while Luke waved his hands and each of his military daggers flew towards Black Empress Mila.
Lieutenant Li Bo was not good at melee combat. He rolled back with his long spear and disappeared from behind the slope. The current terrain was not conducive to sniping, so she needed to draw a distance before she could join the battle from afar.
Liv and Mila exchanged a glance and instantly understood what they were thinking from their companions’ eyes. The two of them made a mistake and moved forward alternately, facing Grant and Luke left and right.
Green Academy’s fairy-tale girls have gone through two generations, and their fighting styles are complementary. With his companions present, he would be able to display even greater combat strength.
Although the two of them appeared at the same time as the White Giant, they did not actually communicate with each other. They did not know of each other’s existence before. Although they were more like fighting against Qin Lun, if a white giant joined in and fought in a chaotic battle, it would be detrimental to their performance, so they had to deal with Grant and Luke first.
“Hmph, the green little apple has turned into a ripe peach. Its collection value is even higher.” Grant swiftly wiped his face. He was already wearing a human skin mask, and his eyes revealed a trace of coldness.
Superhuman lifespans are far longer than normal, and Liv and Mila are at their peak of their prime. Grant, who had fought with the two of them before, although his tone was frivolous, he didn’t dare to neglect them. He immediately put on a human skin mask.
“Mila, be careful. This person’s abilities are a bit similar to mine.” Liv warned her companions cautiously as she stared at Grant, who was rushing over. She shook the revolver in her hand and instantly opened her weapon. It turned into a blood-red Reaper Sickle and faced Grant head-on.
However, Little Red Riding Hood’s judgment wasn’t correct. Grant, who had fought with her back then, was only the third mission world. Although she had a viral bloodline, her physical attributes were weak and she hadn’t changed professions. Because he couldn’t keep up with Liv’s speed, he was forced to simulate himself like that. Now that the clown’s strength had increased, there was no need for him to deliberately imitate anyone else.
“Ding!” Grant’s golden fist collided with the Reaper Sickle, producing a metallic clanging sound.
Little Red Riding Hood felt an irresistible force coming from the sickle. His figure seemed to have been hit by a typhoon and he flew back at a faster speed than before.
Grant’s eyes lit up. The experienced clown was willing to give up such a good opportunity. He immediately stepped on his right foot and a flat footprint appeared on the ground. His huge body instantly caught up to Liv and fiercely punched his opponent.
Liv was shocked and placed the sickle horizontally in front of her chest.
“Success!” Grant grinned sinisterly, and the golden light on his fist became even more resplendent, as if he was holding onto a golden ball.
Just as his fist was about to hit Liv, a slender black figure flashed in front of his eyes. The black image snake wrapped itself around his arm and pulled him back fiercely.
“Boom!” A loud explosion rang out in the area where the two of them were fighting. The rising smoke covered everyone’s figures, and rubble flew out from the smoke, causing a mess of flowers and plants around the park.
By the time the smoke dispersed, the area they were in had already turned into a pit several meters in radius. Grant didn’t even look at the bloody wound on his arm as he stood at the center of the pit with his shoulders crossed.
Suddenly, the slender black figure was Mila’s weapon, the straight blade whip. It had the shape of a wide blade and a short straight blade. There was also a chain blade whip embedded in it. At the same time, the thick scabbard could be folded with the straight blade and turn into a short barrel double barrel hunting rifle. Like Liv’s Reaper Sickle, it had several weapon forms and was a different kind of weapon casing.
Back then, Qin Lun’s idea of making Ayala’s weapon casing was precisely inspired by this idea.
Liv and Mila stood side by side, looking at the pit with a serious expression.
“Liv, he’s getting stronger, and his fighting style has changed a lot.” Mila frowned as he looked at the pit. A trace of fear flashed through his eyes. “This Klug didn’t have this kind of fist power in the past, and he clearly possessed abilities other than the virus bloodline.”
After Casablanca, the Alliance Army and Green College, who occupied the advantage of the main arena, carefully swept through several areas where superhumans were fighting. They obtained some blood samples from Kieran and Grant, so they had a certain understanding of their superhuman bloodlines.
‘”Captain Klug, I…” A figure flashed by Grant’s side. Luke lowered his head and stood awkwardly at the side.
“It doesn’t matter. Green College’s fairy-tale girls have been paired up for a long time. The tacit understanding between them is incomparable to ours.” Grant said indifferently, “I’m in charge of this battle. You’re responsible for the guerrilla harassment.”
Grant remained calm on the surface, but his heart sank. Although he was wearing a human skin mask, the [Gift of the Clown] hadn’t reached the triggering conditions. Moreover, this was his last trump card, so he couldn’t use it at will.
In other words, the Super Sabotage Fist was already his strongest attack method. He was sensitive to the fact that he hadn’t been able to use the two of them to misjudge him at once. Using the Super Sabotage Fist to heavily injure one of them would make the following battle extremely difficult.
“Without the two of us, Elaine and Xena fighting the River of Death alone would be very dangerous. We have to return as soon as possible. It looks like we can only use that thing!” Liv and Mila looked at each other and took out a blood-red crystal from their bosoms.
In fact, the superpower system of the Green Hunters trained by Green College was very different from that of the American Avengers. Most of the Avengers, including Captain America and the Hulk, had evolved their bodies using technological power, and due to the effects of the spatial rift, they had evolved deeper and deeper.
Of course, there were also Iron Man, who used high-tech equipment and technology to surpass humans. However, because of Iron Man’s unique experience, his chest was embedded with a tiny Beta particle generator, and his body was affected by radiation. He could no longer be called an ordinary human. Otherwise, the originally weak human body wouldn’t be able to afford the steel armor.
Unlike the human evolution of the Avengers due to all sorts of accidents, the evolution of the Green Hunters was actually a purposeful and directional mutation. Although each hunter developed different superpowers, their origin was the same. They were all affected by a substance called Blood Crystal.
More than a hundred years ago, the spacetime rift first appeared in the stratosphere of this world. In the following generations, the spacetime rift had been slowly expanding, and some unstable small wormholes had also appeared in remote corners of the Eurasian continent.
Every time a wormhole appeared, a small amount of blood crystals would appear in that area. This substance would cause the local plants and animals to mutate and eventually turn into irrational evil spirits that only knew how to devour life. Green College was established under this backdrop.
As time went by, the Green Hunters’ research on blood crystals grew deeper and deeper, prompting the hunters to gradually evolve and finally possess various superpowers.
The Blood Crystal not only stimulated the slow mutation of living things, it was also an excellent origin ability. After absorbing the Blood Crystal directly, the Green Hunter would explode with terrifying potential in a short period of time. Of course, there would also be great sequelae.
