Chapter 169: Who Would I Hit If Not You?
Vigilante A left halfway, and after Fatso Liu explained a few words, everyone showed understanding expressions, “Eh, heroes. It’s normal for them to occasionally show up for business activities. However, their main job is still to serve justice. For mundane matters of the secular world, it would be nice to just let them take care of it…”
Qi Yan, standing on the stage, silently stared after the silhouette growing further away.
Vigilante A immediately appeared at a cliff above the ravine, exactly where that group of people passed by.
Fang Ning thought, “I have to say, Sir System’s perception is as amazing as ever”
Vigilante A glanced at the marks on the ground, and found out that it faintly lead to the South. He immediately pursued it.
Before long, he entered a place with rocky buttresses. There was even a glimmering pool nearby.
Vigilante A halted, standing by and watching.
Fang Ning observed carefully. He only noticed that the cold winds of this place howled and roared. There were stone pillars erected everywhere, the flora was bleak and desolate, and the cold pool had frozen over. It was certainly a common midwinter scene one would find in the North, as if nothing unusual had happened here in a very long time.
He could only open his mouth to ask, “Is there anything wrong about this place?”
The System replied, “Ambush.”
Fang Ning said, “Where?”
The System, “You don’t need to know. Just hide.”
Fang Ning was speechless, and obediently shrank himself in the System Space. Before long, his phone lit up.
He opened it and found out that he received a piece of news on his QQ app. The sender was from Zheng Dao, who said he had already contacted the Truth Department.
After reading, he conveyed the contents of the message to the System. He asked about the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy as well as the specific location of this place before replying to Zheng Dao.
Five minutes had already passed, but Vigilante A remained motionless, standing still as a statue.
The three people who planned the ambush started to get impatient, and communicated telepathically.
“Sina, Kamal, there’s no time. Attack.”
“Alright, Maram. Looks like after he got injured, his watchfulness has increased even higher. An ambush would not work after all.”
“I still feel that doing this would be too dangerous. An injured lion is more frightening after all.”
“Stop griping, Kamal. Bring out the courage you youngsters ought to have!”
After the three finished their telepathic conversation, they split up into three directions and slowly revealed themselves.
Fang Ning only just now realized the location of the ambush.
A face with more than a few wrinkles belonging to a rather old middle-aged caucasian man suddenly appeared in front of Vigilante A not far away, beside a stone pillar.
A caucasian woman then suddenly appeared above the frozen pool, standing southeast from the middle-aged man. Her appearance was rather pretty, her hair was tied with several long and thin braids, and there were quite a number of orbs woven into the braids.
Lastly, was a young and handsome caucasian man. He appeared among the flora, and stood southwest from the middle-aged man.
Earlier, no matter how much Fang Ning searched, he could not find them at all. He sighed in his heart. Nevermind frontal combat, when it came to scouting out the environment of the battlefield, the System was a hundred thousand miles better than he.
According to their positions, Fang Ning immediately sketched out an image in his mind, and found that it formed the shape of a triangle.
If Vigilante A moved forward just a few steps, he would end up getting surrounded.
“Hmph, Vigilante A, so you did chase us after all. I just knew that someone like you would never be able to ignore this matter. Even if you don’t step inside our kill zone, you are outnumbered three to one. Next year on this day would be known as the anniversary of your death!” The middle-aged caucasian man glared sinisterly at Vigilante A, as if he had an absolutely irreconcilable vengeance with him.
Fang Ning hurriedly advised the System. “Don’t forget the routine I told you earlier…”
“Yeah,” replied the System.
Vigilante A said, “Who are you people? We have never met each other before, so what enmity do you have with me? Why have you set up an ambush in this place?”
The middle-aged caucasian man actually replied him. “Seeing the fact that you’re a strong opponent who shares the same level as me, I’ll let you take the truth to your grave. The three of us are the disciples of the Three Hindu Gods. I am Maram Desan… the heir of the God of Creation.”
“Kamal Roza… the heir of the God of Destruction.”
“Sina Aradhan… the heir of the God of Preservation.”
The three introduced themselves along with their long full names. By the time they finished, three minutes had passed.
Fang Ning expressed, “I only remembered the first two. I can’t be bothered to listen to the last one…”
After they finished reporting their names, the middle-aged Caucasian man called Maram folded his arms across his chest and sneered, “We have stated our names. As for our enmity? You should know very well in your heart! Did you think that we would be clueless about what happens in the Land of Heritage? I was one step too late, and the entrance was sealed by the Truth Department, and now I am sealed out. However, God is supreme. The God of Destruction has already transmitted all the images from his incarnations in the secular world to us. It was you, you arch-criminal. It was you who killed Master Shaz.”
Vigilante A replied lightly, “It used its strength to bully the weak and willfully committed all sorts of outrage. It annexed the land of others and had no regard for human life at all. I merely carried out the mandate of Heaven, executing it was an act of righteousness!”
