Chapter 257 Murderous Intent in the Night
Chapter 257 Murderous Intent in the Night
Under the cloak of night, on a narrow street.
The African Wild Dog and the American Lion were so evenly matched that it was hard to tell them apart, but Chu Ge charged like a bolt of lightning.
He swung his claws swiftly, both paws striking simultaneously.
The two Survivors had no time to react before their heads were crushed by his blows.
"You have successfully hunted an enemy, earning 200 Survival Points."
"You have successfully hunted an enemy, earning 200 Survival Points."
Two notifications sounded one after the other as the kill count for the Suicide Group rose to 12, leading the kill leaderboard.
Chu Ge felt a surge of exhilaration and began to sniff out scents of living creatures other than humans.
This city battle could perhaps be a great opportunity for the Suicide Group to make a name for themselves.
Soon, he vanished into the night.
The night in Tokyo was beautiful, filled with the hustle and bustle of a metropolis.
People came and went, cars and horses were like dragons and snakes, easily swallowing up an individual without a trace.
Despite its liveliness, there were many dark corners between the buildings.
It was in these shadows that Chu Ge moved stealthily, trusting that other Survivors would do the same.
He kept weaving through the darkness, eventually bound to collide with another Survivor.
"Survival Team 'Beyond Redemption' has annihilated the Survival Team 'Pencil Shavings Redemption'!"
Xiao E was showing off his skills.
He had directly wiped out the eighth-ranked Survival Team on the kill leaderboard!
Chu Ge did not notice the name Rashomon; it seemed that this city battle might be dominated by Beyond Redemption.
However, Xiao E, being an eight-meter-long Giant Crocodile, would easily be discovered moving about the city—a vulnerability.
While contemplating, Chu Ge continued on his way.
"Survival Team 'Rashomon' has annihilated the Survival Team 'Beyond Redemption'!"
The cold female voice echoed again.
Chu Ge was stunned.
Fuck!
It was that maniac Emperor Luosheng again!
What kind of luck was this, encountering him again!
Chu Ge was on the verge of exploding with rage, thinking about Emperor Luosheng's neurotic questioning made his head ache.
At the same time, he felt sorry for Xiao E.
Dying twice in a row at the hands of Emperor Luosheng, no one knew how much that would affect Xiao E's psyche.
"Xiao E, oh Xiao E, can't you be a bit more forceful? I still want to get revenge on you," Chu Ge silently thought, feeling a tingling excitement at the prospect of challenging Emperor Luosheng himself.
He wondered how wide the gap was between him and Emperor Luosheng now.
...
On the rooftop of a residential building.
Gu Tianjiao stood on the roof, looking down at three long-haired dogs on the rooftop surface below her.
The size of these three long-haired dogs was smaller than her, and they barked incessantly at her.
"Playing dog tricks, why don't you speak up!" Gu Tianjiao said disdainfully, her words making the three long-haired dogs rush toward her, attempting to jump up the wall to reach her.
Unfortunately, as soon as they jumped, Gu Tianjiao slapped them back down.
In this back-and-forth, the dogs were infuriated.
One of the white-haired dogs barked, "You nasty woman, come down here!"
Gu Tianjiao laughed, asking, "Are you also Chinese?"
Many people from The Island Nation were part of this city battle; on the kill leaderboard, the Survival Arena automatically translated names into text familiar to the Survivors.
"Cut the crap, come down!"
Another black-haired dog joined in, all of them acting arrogantly.
Even though they lacked in leaping ability, they were confident they could kill Gu Tianjiao on the ground.
Gu Tianjiao said with a smirk, "Well, here I come."
"Come on, you nasty woman!"
"We'll make you suffer in no time!"
"Come down quickly for a one-on-one!"
Facing their provocations, Gu Tianjiao immediately jumped down.
One minute later.
Gu Tianjiao squatted on the ground, licking her paws, with the three long-haired dogs' carcasses lying behind her. Enjoy new stories from empire
Xiao Hero suddenly flew in from the night sky. He circled above Gu Tianjiao's head and said, "I've found Arno, General Lie Hao, Ye Wukong, and Nangong. They've already gathered in an abandoned factory."
Gu Tianjiao nodded and said, "I plan to operate solo. In downtown, being in a group makes us too conspicuous."
Xiao Hero narrowed his eyes and cautioned, "Don't get carried away. You have to be ruthless with your enemies, don't give them any chance, even if they are weak."
Having said that, Xiao Hero quickly flew away.
Gu Tianjiao rose to her feet and ran in another direction, quickly leaping over the parapet of the rooftop and vanishing into the night.
...
Late at night.
Chu Ge lay prone in the park, resting while paying attention to the team leaderboard.

...
Suicide was already in the vanguard.
Chu Ge had only contributed two kills.
He had wandered around all night, and had not encountered a third Survivor.
He was now feeling quite frustrated.
He had no idea what the distribution of the remaining sixteen were.
Rustle rustle rustle——
The bushes not far ahead suddenly started shaking.
Chu Ge's eyes lit up, could that be a Survivor?
He was just about to get up when the bushes stopped shaking.
At this moment, two people came, supporting each other, and Chu Ge turned his head to get a clear view of their faces.
It was a short and chubby middle-aged man with a maid-dressed young girl.
The middle-aged man seemed to be drunk, mumbling to himself, being held up by the maid-dressed girl, his hands rather unruly, which kept the girl continuously whispering and protesting.
Although Chu Ge didn't understand the language of The Island Nation, he could guess their identities by their behavior.
He waited patiently.
He wanted to wait until these two walked far away before making a move.
Suddenly!
A Husky burst out of the bushes, knocking the middle-aged man flying and then pouncing on the maid-dressed girl.
What the Husky did next left Chu Ge speechless.
What the hell was this?
Fucking shameless!
He immediately charged out, coming up behind the Husky, and swung a paw at it.
The Husky yelped in pain, fell to the ground, and died instantly.
"You have successfully hunted an enemy and earned 200 Survival Points."
After the kill, Chu Ge quickly slipped away.
The maid-dressed girl was stunned on the ground, watching Chu Ge's retreating figure in terror.
"Lion... a huge lion..."
She murmured to herself with a pale face, trembling all over, lacking even the strength to stand.
Arriving at another side of the park, Chu Ge slowed his pace.
This park was very large and extremely quiet.
He sensed a hint of murderous intent.
Prolonged life-and-death battles had honed his extraordinary sharp senses.
There were enemies around!
And they were strong!
Chu Ge calmly surveyed his surroundings without stopping.
On both sides were ornamental shrubs, and further back were large trees.
Whoosh!
A sound of something cutting through the air reached him, and Chu Ge instinctively twisted his body.
A feather, sharp like an arrow, whizzed past him.
He immediately turned to look, and saw a mature Rooster standing on a tree trunk, its right claw hanging in midair.
Standing on one leg like a golden chicken!
Very flamboyant!
Chu Ge charged at it immediately, and the Rooster followed by flapping its wings, firing feathers at Chu Ge as if triggered by a mechanism.
