With a bang!
The elevator wall was forcefully dented, and upon landing, the woman coughed up a mouthful of blood.
But at this moment…
The elevator chimed, arriving at the first floor. The woman quickly forced herself to lunge forward, stumbling out of the elevator.
"Make way, make way…"
The woman pushed aside the crowd at the elevator door and fled rapidly forward.
Bai Ye curled his lips, giving chase immediately.
This was sin value delivered right to his doorstep, how could he let it escape?
Bai Ye swiftly pursued her out the door, but at this moment…
Bai Ye suddenly felt something was wrong, and with a backward leap, he retreated. Then…
*Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump…*
Gunshots erupted abruptly, sweeping towards Bai Ye's direction. Immediately, the glass windows on both sides of the office building shattered, and the surrounding people screamed, either ducking for cover or fleeing in all directions.
Bai Ye rolled behind the office building's reception desk, looking at the terrified receptionist squatting to the side, and said with a smile, "Hi."
Seeing the pulse pistol in Bai Ye's hand, the receptionist shrieked and scrambled up to run like a madwoman.
Bai Ye touched his face and said, "Am I that hideous?"
Bai Ye turned his head to look outside. Two men and one woman, a total of three people.
Bai Ye couldn't help but sigh. Was it necessary to team up to fight a boss? He was just a weak, pitiful, helpless child.
At the same time…
The three people at the entrance of the office building had stopped shooting. A robust man stepped forward and said, "Quick, quick, quick…"
The robust man shouted into the office building, urging the people inside to evacuate.
Meanwhile, the woman and another tall, thin man were outside the office building, dispersing the crowd who hadn't figured out what was happening and were still lingering to watch the commotion.
The Order Faction had its advantages, such as knowing the top ten individuals with the highest sin value in the Sin Faction, and receiving clues to track them down.
However, the Order Faction also had its troubles, primarily due to its many scruples and the inability to harm innocents. If even one person inside this office building were killed, they would lose Order Points, and severe transgressions could even lead to punishment.
Therefore, after ambushing and firing a volley at Bai Ye at the entrance, they dared not fire indiscriminately. Instead, they prioritized evacuating the area to avoid friendly fire.
However, Bai Ye had no such concerns…
Bai Ye stood up abruptly, raising his twin pulse pistols and pulling the triggers.
*Bang, bang, bang…*
A man in a suit cried out in pain as blood splattered from his back repeatedly.
Screams erupted again, and a chaotic crowd began to exit. The robust man was jostled by the flow of people, and when he saw Bai Ye looking at him, he scrambled away to the side.
*Bang, bang, bang!*
Bai Ye pulled the triggers continuously. Beams of azure light struck the ground, shattering it and emitting wisps of black smoke, but failed to hit the target. The robust man rolled and took cover in a safety exit.
The other man and woman quickly arrived at the entrance of the office building, guiding the crowd away, and then raised their guns to charge into the building, but…
Bai Ye's counterattack was faster!
On Bai Ye's shoulder, the plasma cannon had accumulated enough energy, and a beam of light shot directly towards the entrance.
*Boom!*
The plasma cannon beam struck the ground with a deafening roar, instantly blasting a crater and spreading dense cracks around it.
The surrounding glass doors and windows were also instantly shattered by the impact, scattering large fragments of glass.
The man and woman, who had just reached the entrance, were forcefully pushed back before they could even enter, tumbling and taking cover beneath the stairs in front of the office building.
Bai Ye strode forward, sneering, "Three pathetic wretches think they can take sin value from me? Where did you get the nerve?"
At this moment, the robust man in the safety exit poked his head out. Seeing Bai Ye emerging from behind the reception desk, with no more obstacles to shield him, he raised his submachine gun to fire at Bai Ye.
But…
Rokushiki…
Soru!
Bai Ye's figure flickered, like a shifting shadow. Immediately, before the opponent could fire, he suddenly appeared in front of him and swept out a leg, kicking the submachine gun out of his hand.
The strong man was slightly stunned by the sudden change but reacted quickly. With his submachine gun kicked away, he immediately lunged to grab Bai Ye, intending to slam him directly.
Furthermore, judging by the opponent's movements and stance, he was clearly trained or possessed relevant abilities acquired on the world battlefield, such as grappling techniques found in wrestling, sumo, or judo.
But…
Even with excellent technique, it was utterly useless!
Because absolute strength was crushing!
The strong man was quickly dumbfounded. Bai Ye's feet were rooted to the ground as if he were a tree. No matter how hard the man pushed, he couldn't budge Bai Ye an inch.
This was unbelievable for the strong man. He was nearly two meters tall and weighed 120 kilograms, yet Bai Ye, who was at least two sizes smaller, looked like a chick in front of him. He couldn't lift him!
The scene was incredibly incongruous.
Then…
As the strong man was in shock, Bai Ye grabbed him by the back of his neck and slammed him against the wall. With a bang, the strong man's head immediately started bleeding.
Bai Ye didn't stop. He raised his fist to continue his assault, but at this moment, the man and woman had already charged in, aiming their guns at Bai Ye.
Bai Ye's reaction was also swift. He quickly pulled the robust man up, using him as a shield, and drew his famed sword, Bloodthirsty, placing it against his throat.
"Shoot," Bai Ye said with a smile. "Judging by your appearance, you seem to have teamed up on the fly and don't have much affection for each other. Why not just shoot? Sacrificing one person to eliminate me would be quite worthwhile."
The man and woman remained silent, their gun muzzles fixed on Bai Ye. As Bai Ye moved, they slowly shifted their aim.
"Very loyal," Bai Ye chuckled. "But do you think he won't die if you don't make a move?"
*Pfft!*
Bai Ye suddenly exerted force and slashed. The famed sword Bloodthirsty sliced open the robust man's throat.
The robust man's eyes widened. He instinctively reached to cover his throat, but blood gushed out uncontrollably.
And Bai Ye's figure vanished once more in that instant!
Soru!
Bai Ye's figure flickered. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the two. He casually swept out a leg, knocking their submachine guns flying.
The man and woman reacted quickly, rapidly leaping back to create distance from Bai Ye.
In the next instant, they exchanged a look and spoke in unison!
"Beastification!"
"Steelification!"
