A demon amidst the sky-high blood rain!
With these final thoughts, he finally lost his breath, collapsing to the ground with a hint of relief, and unconsciously thinking, 'It feels so good not to have to fight a demon!'
He had many internal struggles, and externally, he also showed many signs of struggle.
All of this seemed to unfold slowly, but in reality, it was not slow at all; only a few seconds passed.
And in those few seconds, in this place, besides the Shadow, not a single person remained standing.
Most of them were already dead, and the remaining few were on the verge of death, ready to perish at any moment.
"This method is simple, but it's too bloody!" The Shadow—who was Lu Chen, collecting funds—looked at the scene before him, sniffing the pungent smell of blood at his nose, and said helplessly.
Killing thirty or forty gunmen in just a few seconds was not an easy feat.
It had to be done with the most effective means!
Stabbing the chest, a laborious way to kill, simply couldn't be used.
Stabbing each person once seemed simple, but it required many coordinated stances. Even with Lu Chen's speed, thirty or forty gunmen would take more than five seconds.
Cutting a person in half was possible, but Lu Chen only did it once and never used it again.
That scene was simply too disgusting.
Even Lu Chen, who was accustomed to killing, couldn't adapt to it.
This was the best choice!
After a casual complaint, he didn't continue, walking to the middle of the corpses, picking up the two boxes on the ground. After confirming they were correct, he left with the two boxes.
Lu Chen's figure disappeared under the cover of the night, leaving behind only a ground full of corpses and blood.
Lu Chen did not return immediately.
Instead, he went to a nearby polluted river, opened one of the boxes, took out the White powder, tore open the packages, and sprinkled them into the river before him.
Watching these things dissolve into such a small river.
Lu Chen was not a good person now, but he would not use such things for profit; Lu Chen still had a basic bottom line.
After doing all this, and throwing the box into the river along with its contents, Lu Chen carried the box full of cash and walked towards his home.
Tonight's harvest was considerable; it could support Lu Chen for some time, and he could finally go back.
You can't keep fleecing the sheep; you have to give them a little time to recuperate, right?
Clink!
As Lu Chen was walking, the knife in his hand suddenly made a soft clinking sound, startling Lu Chen.
Lu Chen stopped and looked at the knife in his hand, only to see that it had suddenly pulled out a little from its sheath.
Lu Chen frowned and looked in one direction.
When the knife in Lu Chen's hand pulled itself out of its sheath, he felt a force attracting it, faintly coming from the direction Lu Chen was looking at.
"It seems I'm not the only one busy in the dark of night!" Lu Chen said with a strange smile.
After amusing himself, Lu Chen began to truly think.
This was not a fantasy World; there was no such thing as 'all blades returning to the source,' and Lu Chen was 100% sure that the knife in his hand was a completely industrialized product, with no such thing as a 'blade spirit.'
So...
"Is it Magneto, or a certain Polaris, Lorna Dane, who prefers not to reveal her name?"
Chapter 11: Pack and Carry (One Extra Chapter)
In Marvel, Lu Chen only remembered two named individuals who could control metal.
One was a big shot among Mutants, Magneto, the radical Mutant leader who had a love-hate relationship with Professor X for decades, their relationship unclear.
The other was Magneto's daughter, Polaris, Lorna Dane!
Which one of them caused all this?
Lu Chen became curious!
Then, without hesitation, he continued to walk towards his home.
Just because he was curious didn't mean he had to know the answer. Why bother with that? If it was Polaris, it would be fine, but if it was Magneto, Lu Chen would be in a lot of trouble.
Mutant affairs were too troublesome, and Lu Chen didn't want to get involved.
However, even though Lu Chen didn't want to get involved, someone wanted to involve him.
As Lu Chen was advancing, next to a building, a woman smelling of blood suddenly descended from the sky, landing squarely in front of Lu Chen.
According to Lu Chen's estimate, this person was likely the one who had just controlled the metal, and also one of the targets Lu Chen had locked onto: Polaris, Lorna Dane.
The floating metal materials around her body and her green hair were the best proof.
Lu Chen discovered her, and she also discovered Lu Chen. After getting up from the ground, she immediately retreated several steps, looking warily at Lu Chen before her.
Lu Chen... didn't look like a good person!
In the dark, dressed in all black, with a black hood and a black mask, completely covered, although there was no blood on him, he carried an unusually pungent smell of blood, which could be smelled from such a distance.
Her injuries didn't compare to the smell of blood on him, despite him being unharmed. One could imagine what kind of environment he had just been in.
And he was clearly not a butcher from a slaughterhouse.
So, the outcome was obvious.
Having barely escaped pursuit, Lorna Dane's mind had not yet relaxed; she was still tense. Now, looking at Lu Chen, she began to consider whether to strike first.
While Lorna Dane was thinking, Lu Chen did not; he moved directly!
Under Lorna Dane's startled gaze, he walked towards her.
Was he trying to attack her? Did he think that her discovery of him would affect the exposure of his identity, so he wanted to kill her to silence her? Was he some kind of serial killer, or a dismemberment maniac?
Lorna Dane began to battle wits with the air.
