Chapter 473: Second Death
The colorful crystalline shards, growing out of the air like spears, pierced through the ten escort personnel. Eight of them died on the spot; only the two guarding the coffin-like box were not yet dead. They seemed to have used a special item to block the attack of the air crystalline shards. However, this attack was different from others. Even though they intercepted the crystalline shards head-on, the intercepted parts still sprouted more crystalline branches like blooming flowers. And once they penetrated the human body, whether bones or internal organs, they would rapidly turn to dust!
Everyone present had witnessed how formidable these ten escort personnel were. They faced the mutant tide without losing a single person, and this was even with some space-time items being restricted. Yet Laurence Li could kill them with a single strike without even showing himself. Items and characteristics were utterly useless!
Two seconds later, Laurence Li appeared on the locomotive of the train, a cage placed beside him. Inside was precisely that female blood mutant who had almost been killed by Director Yuan moments ago.
Director Yuan was not dead yet. He looked at Laurence Li, revealing a strange smile, then slapped the coffin-like box!
The five sides of the coffin-like box peeled away. As it toppled over, it revealed a rectangular glass cabinet. Inside was not a living person or corpses as Xu Huo had previously guessed, but a cabinet filled with pink gas. As the coffin-like box opened, a mechanical humming sound came from within the glass cabinet. In an instant, the glass shattered, and a massive amount of pink gas rushed out in all directions following the shockwave!
Above and below the train, mutants and humans alike died instantly upon contact with or inhalation of this gas!
Xu Huo died once again. When he opened his eyes, Laurence Li had just appeared on the locomotive. He immediately shouted, "Don't open the coffin!"
This was precisely the moment Director Yuan raised his hand. Alerted, Laurence Li pointed a single finger forward. Director Yuan's arm was swiftly encased in crystalline shards and turned to dust. Simultaneously, similar crystalline shards sealed the coffin, removed the two troublesome hands attached to it, and, from a distance, twisted off the heads of Director Yuan and the other player.
These ten people, Director Yuan and his men, died too quickly and simply, like ten ants by the roadside, their lives holding no weight. But upon careful thought, it makes one realize how terrifying super players truly are. Against ordinary high-level players, there's still a chance for a desperate fight, but encountering a super player probably only leaves the option of lying down and accepting fate.
