Chapter 35, Divine Punishment Sect

Chapter 35, Divine Punishment Sect

The bullet pierced through the neck, blood spraying out.

The man was still trying to retreat, but his body was already beginning to collapse.

With a thud, he fell to the ground.

But his hand still reached into his chest, trying to pull something out.

Barson quickly ran over and kicked his head, causing him to pause slightly.

Wu Heng also approached and pulled the trigger again on the man lying on the ground.

Bang bang~!

The gunshots rang out, and the bullets pierced through his chest.

The body completely stopped moving.

[Gained +64 experience]

The system prompt appeared, confirming the enemy was dead.

He ordered Barson to continue guarding the surroundings.

After Wu Heng reloaded both his and Barson's magazines,

he picked up all the empty magazines that had been thrown on the ground.

He glanced at the corpse on the ground, which was already oozing blood, and abandoned the idea of taking the body to the zombie world.

Otruluk and Kavina's situation was still unknown, and if there were signs of a fight afterward with no body found, it could easily lead to suspicion falling on him.

These thoughts quickly passed through his mind, and then he quickly ran forward with Barson.

At the same time, he wondered if the guards outside had noticed the situation here.

If no signal was sent outside, it might be possible that no one would ever discover what happened here.

He came to a sudden stop, quickly finding a window facing the flower bed.

[Grease] was spread all over the flower bed, and he pulled out a lighter, lit a cloth strip, and threw it in.

Whoosh~!

Instantly, a fire roared to life, illuminating the entire night sky.

Now, someone had to notice.

Once they saw the fire, they would come to check on the Adventurers' Guild while putting out the fire.

If that didn't attract the guards, it would mean the entire Blackstone Town had fallen.

In that case, it would be better to return directly to the zombie world.

After doing all this, Wu Heng continued running toward the hall.

...

In the hall,

Kavina was surrounded by five people holding longswords or daggers. These individuals wore different outfits, but they coordinated very well.

They were attacking Kavina.

In the shadows not far away, a figure in a black robe with a raven on his shoulder was silently observing.

From time to time, he released blue energy spears, restricting Kavina's movements.

It was as if he was toying with his prey.

Kavina was not in good condition, her entire body stained with blood, covered with various sword wounds.

Her blonde hair under the helmet had matted with blood, sticking to her pale face.

She continued to swing her longsword, fighting with the people around her.

"Young lady, I see you have talent. Why not join us?" The black-robed man's voice rang out, seemingly magical, causing some to lose focus.

Kavina panted slightly, staggering on her feet, but snorted coldly without responding.

The black-robed man nodded, gently patting the raven on his shoulder.

Caw~!

A sharp cry came from the raven's mouth.

Kavina instinctively glanced over, only to find the raven staring back at her.

Those eyes seemed like an abyss, devouring her spirit.

In the moment of her distraction, the people around her swung their swords at her head.

The iron sword was about to come down.

Whoosh~!

Suddenly, a bright light shot from the distance, sweeping across their eyes.

Before they could react, deafening gunshots rang out.

Bang bang bang!

Bullets pierced through the darkness, shooting forward.

Although none hit, they managed to briefly intimidate the attackers.

They retreated, putting some distance between themselves and Kavina.

Barson moved quickly in the darkness, rushing into the group and picking up the stunned Kavina, retreating into the shadows and disappearing.

Wu Heng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Whoosh~!

The sound of wings flapping echoed.

In the dim light of the flashlight, a black-feathered raven was already flying overhead.

Wu Heng looked up in surprise, instinctively meeting the raven's eyes.

In the next moment, the raven's eyes expanded like a spreading abyss, and Wu Heng suddenly felt dizzy, as if his soul was being devoured.

But then, the feeling disappeared instantly, and his vision cleared.

"What the hell!"

The flashlight smashed into the raven's head with a bang, sending it flying into the wall.

"Kill him!"

The black-robed man roared in anger from afar.

The five attackers in the darkness quickly charged.

As they drew near, Wu Heng turned his gun and pulled the trigger.

After laying down Kavina, Barson also pulled the trigger, the bullets crisscrossing through the hall, and the five attackers fell instantly.

The black-robed man in the distance panicked, turned around, and tried to escape into the darkness.

Wu Heng shone the flashlight on him and pulled the trigger.

Barson quickly followed, both pursuing the target.

The bullets tore through the darkness, piercing the black-robed man's body.

[Gained +55 experience.]

The black-robed man was dead.

After confirming the kill, Wu Heng quickly moved to Kavina's side.

She was covered in blood, her body full of wounds of various sizes.

To have held on against so many attackers for so long, she was indeed impressive.

He took out two potions from his backpack, pried open Kavina's mouth, and poured in the 'Healing Potion' and 'Antidote Potion.'

He wasn't sure which would work, but saving her life was the priority.

After some thought, he opened a bottle of Mana Potion and poured that in too.

Cough, cough!

Kavina coughed violently, the potion spilling from her mouth.

Then she opened her eyes, "What are you doing?"

"Giving you medicine. Are you alright?"

"Nothing too serious."

Wu Heng nodded, "You rest for a bit. Reinforcements should be here soon. I'll go check on the captain."

"No, let's go together. He's facing a stronger enemy." As she spoke, Kavina shakily stood up.

A stronger enemy?

Wu Heng now understood why Kavina hadn't run and fought so hard.

If she had run, Otruluk would have faced even more pressure.

Wu Heng nodded and didn't plan to leave her behind.

It was unclear if there were other enemies; staying together would be safer.

"Alright, let's go!"

...

The two of them, along with the skeleton, moved quickly down the corridor.

Thud, thud~!

From the darkness ahead, heavy hammering sounds echoed.

Turning the corner, they saw a towering figure battling the captain, Otruluk.

Hearing footsteps behind him,

the two figures quickly separated, both looking back.

Wu Heng and Kavina also looked at the enemy.

It was a strong man nearly two meters tall, with bulging muscles and bare arms. He fought with just his fists, using no weapons.

Meanwhile, Captain Otruluk looked rather disheveled.

His breathing was heavy, and his silver armor was dented, indicating he had taken a heavy blow.

Seeing his two teammates arrive, a hint of relief appeared on Otruluk's face, "Did you call for reinforcements?"

"They're on their way," Wu Heng replied.

Whether the reinforcements were coming or not, now was not the time to say he didn't know.

Otruluk nodded and continued, "Elder Bagdong of the Divine Punishment Sect, skilled in martial arts, very strong and agile."

Damn it!

The Divine Punishment Sect is here, and Blackstone Town's main forces are outside the city.
