Chapter 679: Poor Bandits (1/2)
The five people didn’t stray far from each other while searching for Bai Xiaofei so that they could quickly assist each other once they found him. Although Bai Xiaofei was only a ‘Master Rank’ puppet master, they didn’t underestimate him.
This was a basic rule of bandits. Once they acted, they tried their very best. After all, the number of those who drowned in shallow water wasn’t small.
However, what the five could never have expected was that it was not shallow water they were dealing with, but an ocean trench!
Looking at the nearest person, Bai Xiaofei teleported and appeared behind him, doing a hand-chop to his neck. Without any suspense, the man fell unconscious. His appearance was then assumed by Bai Xiaofei fused with Blackie.
“Old Fifth, how’s your side?” a person close to him shouted as soon as Bai Xiaofei appeared.
Bai Xiaofei was quite an expert in dealing with this kind of trouble. “Nothing yet, that fellow may have a puppet that can conceal him!” he shouted back.
The person immediately seemed troubled. After some struggle, he yelled toward the leader, “F*ck it! We can’t let that fat sheep run away! Boss, use that thing!”
At the moment he turned his body, his brother ‘Old Fifth’ approached him quickly.
“No rush, I’ll use it after we are certain we can’t find him, or it’d be wasted if that boy has no money left on him.” The boss obviously wanted to profit bare-handed, seeming to very much cherish ‘that thing.’
“That f*cker, where can he run…”
As the other man mumbled to himself, Bai Xiaofei had quietly gotten near and startled him.
“Damn it! Old Fifth, don’t scare me like that!”
The man reached out to slap Bai Xiaofei’s head, his face full of displeasure. However, his hand did not land on Bai Xiaofei as imagined but was grabbed by the latter and swung up.
With a loud noise, the man was knocked unconscious by the shoulder throw before he knew what happened.
However, such a noise could not escape the ears of the other three, who quickly turned to check. What they saw was only an escaping figure.
“Over here!” Bai Xiaofei shouted at the top of his lungs while pretending to be injured.
The Grandmaster Rank immediately summoned his puppet – a light blue rope.
“Go!”
The rope flew out and turned into an ice-blue python in mid-air, chasing after the escaping figure. The other two people had also called out their puppets, one was a speed-type Melee Stream that quickly gave chase, and the other a Ranged Stream that attacked to hinder the figure.
