Chapter 325 This Was Completely on Purpose (2/2)
With Han Xiao behind them, the scavengers were pincered between the two.
”Godoran!” Serpent Braid could not have been happier. He never would have expected the prey to show up all by himself.
Serpent Braid quickly took stock of the situation, and as if realizing something, he turned back to look at Han Xiao. ”So, you're with the Godoran. Do you think just you two are enough to take us on? I will have to thank you first for handing me my target on a platter!”
This development was just what Serpent Braid wanted. He no longer had to waste time searching through the ship—all he had to do was defeat the Godoran and take him with them.
Serpent Braid roared and ran to Kerlodd with his war hammer in hand.
Boom!
Kerlodd held up his shield to block. However, he appeared incapable of withstanding Serpent Braid's brute force and had to take a few steps back after the impact.
Just as Serpent Braid was about to follow up with another blow, over a dozen players suddenly appeared behind Kerlodd. They were all filled with energy, and it was obvious that they were all battle-ready Supers. The scavengers suddenly lost their numerical advantage as that number of Super could easily destroy them!
Serpent Braid's expression underwent a drastic change, as the rage was suddenly replaced with shock and despair.
How were there so many Supers travelling on this low-level spaceship‽
The scavengers had already made a rough estimate of the Short Horn Star's fighting strength before they made the ambush, and there should only have been a couple of grade C Supers on-board. This was because any of the stronger Supers would usually either travel using their own ship. Even if they wanted to save money, they still would not go for this cheap civilian transport. A ship like the Short Horn Star was like a public bus while the more expensive travel agencies were like high-speed railways.
The Green Knight was already surprising enough, let alone the sudden appearance of this group of grade C Supers.
Which rock did these Supers even spring out from? They're even teaming up!
What a disaster!
Han Xiao chuckled and said, ”I also have helpers.”
However, the smile disappeared from his face the next instance, and he said in a cold voice, ”Go!”
Han Xiao and Kerlodd's group rushed toward the scavengers, who were stuck in the passageway, and began the one-sided massacre.
The situation suddenly turned around!
Cr*p! Boss is screwed! Cesoly shuddered, as if a gust of cold wind went up his spine. He was currently taking the group of the hostages back to the scavengers' ship.
What do we do now? We can't save the boss. Let's return to our ship first!
Cesoly felt that things had gotten way out of control, and he was also extremely worried. His only concern at that moment was getting back onto his ship safely. He also was not exactly betraying his boss as his original order was to escort the hostages back onto their ship.
However, the thought of reinforcing Serpent Braid not once crossed his mind. Scavengers were a selfish bunch, and loyalty was basically non-existent among them. The only thing that Cesoly cared about was getting himself out of harm's way.
”The boss wants me to take the hostages back to our ship. Move faster…” Cesoly tried to hurry his underlings along.
Just as he was getting to the middle of his sentence, he suddenly stopped and stared at the corner of the main hall.
In the corner that had been empty just a few moments ago now stood over a dozen people. Hao Tian, Sleepy Winter, Rainy Kim, Bun-hit-dog, and several other players who had promised each other to play some Galaxy after finishing dinner had come online together.
The players were flabbergasted as they took in the drastically different surroundings.
Hey hey hey! What's the situation‽ Why have the passengers been taken hostage? Who are those people pointing their guns at us? Why is the spaceship shaking nonstop? There are even sounds of gunshot from far away. Are we under attack‽
The scavengers in the main hall all had their tongues tied to the back of their throats as they stared at the newcomers.
They had already carefully checked all the rooms when capturing the passengers. Where did these people come from? Were they ghosts‽
The two sides stared at each other with widened eyes for a moment.
As more and more of the scavengers pointed their guns at the players, Hao Tian and the others finally understood the situation.
What were they still waiting for? Kill!
Energy burst forth from the group of players as they released their abilities, crushing the scavengers under their feet in a matter of seconds.
Cesoly completely lost his cool.
”How despicable! You would even resort to ambushing‽”
