Chapter 529 - Slaughter, Slaughter (2/2)
The Libyan rebels looked up instinctively and saw Mie, the lone sniper, whom their lieutenant colonel had ordered captured alive with a hundred thousand dollars bounty on his head.
BANG! BANG! RAT TAT TATAT!
They immediately reacted and started to shoot blindly.
However, Xiao Luo was quicker and more agile, and he had already moved away from the stairwell entrance when they started shooting.
The rebel fighters did not hesitate this time, and they went after Mie with a vengeance. Just as they reached the fifth floor, they saw a man wearing camouflage fatigue standing in a battle-wracked and empty hall with his back to them.
“Put your hands in the air!”
The captain yelled, keeping his gun trained at Xiao Luo.
“Haha, haha, haha …”
Xiao Luo’s shoulders were shaking as he burst out in cold-blooded laughter.
The laughter made the rebel fighters cringe, and their hair stand on ends, for it was a mysterious, devilish laugh which struck fear into their hearts.
“Did you hear me? Put your hands in the air!” the captain yelled again.
Xiao Luo slowly turned around. “You guys don’t even know if you will still be alive in the next minute, and yet you think you have the right to ask me to put my hands in the air?”
There was no emotion in his eyes, and they were blood red and glowering–a sign to his enemies that he was lusting for blood. The temperature in the room suddenly plunged down to the freezing point.
R-red… his eyes had turned red!
The rebel fighters felt their very souls leave their bodies in fear, for they had never seen a man with these blood-red eyes. Instinctively, the captain sensed the danger, and his will to survive kicked in. “Open fire, kill the man!” he yelled.
Even a reward of a hundred thousand dollars suddenly did not seem like much, and in fear, the rebels pulled their triggers.
BANG! BANG! RAT TAT TATAT!
As their guns blazed away, bullets flew in all directions, and shell cases were strewn all over the ground. Hundreds of shots rained down on Xiao Luo in seconds.
But it never occurred to anyone that the moment they opened fire, Xiao Luo was no longer where he was.
He was gone?
Where did he go? Was he a ghost?
The rebel fighters were dumbstruck, and a sense of fear prevailed as they looked for Xiao Luo all over.
Suddenly, the captain felt a strange chill at the top of his head, and as he looked up, all he saw was a steel rod smashing down on his head. He did not even have the time to react as the steel rod smashed into his head forcefully.
THUD!
The captain fell dead when he got struck. His brain disintegrated into mush when the steel rod cracked his skull into pieces. Quantities of blood and whitish brain matter flew from his head, and all that was left of him was a decapitated corpse slumped on the ground.
The rebel fighters were horrified when they saw their captain lying dead without his head. This unknown man needed only one blow to do that– was he a human or a monster?
In fear, they started to shoot wildly.
But Xiao Luo turned into a phantom, and no bullets could hit him. He ran through the rebel lines in a flash and struck each one of them with a staggering blow to their heads using a steel rod that he had picked up.
Every blow took a rebel fighter down, and they all had their heads smashed in, splattering blood and brain matter all over the floor.
