Chapter 485 The Gangster Mechanic (1/2)
Ta, ta, ta!
Alvin escaped hurriedly. He was the final doppelganger left on the surface, and DarkStar's pursuing forces followed behind him like parasites. The one chasing after him was a Grade B Super called Sherman, the vice-captain of Forsyth's squad.
He had already noticed that DarkStar was getting ready to take action and had informed Nagakin and the others to request reinforcements. However, reinforcements still had not arrived, so Alvin was getting anxious.
Bang!
A thick light cannon pierced through the walls and smashed into Alvin's body. A magical shield appeared with ripples on it and blocked the damage before exploding in the next instant. Alvin was sent flying by the shockwave and rolled a couple of meters out.
Not too far away from him, a short dwarf-like man walked over wearing a pair of targeting goggles. He was dressed in a gray mechanical suit and held onto a gigantic cannon almost the size of his body. The design of the cannon was complicated with an extremely thick barrel. Apart from the main cannon, there were a couple of subsidiary cannons, and it was obvious that this was a multipurpose firearm.
This person was Sherman. It is said that he had the bloodline of the dwarfs and was a Cannon Master.
”I only have three protective talismans left, and I wouldn't be able to escape far. If the reinforcements do not arrive, I will be finished for sure. Those from DarkStar definitely won't show any mercy to me…” Alvin's face turned solemn; he knew that things were bad.
Sherman remained expressionless, and he pointed his cannon at Alvin, who was trying to crawl back up. ”Don't move. Unless you find your legs too long.”
Before he could even finish his sentence, the sound of something descending from above could be heard. Looking up, he saw someone weaving through the gaps of the buildings nimbly, dressed in a mechanical suit that looked like the armor of a knight. The white cape on his shoulders fluttered in the wind, and he approached Sherman at high speed. With a Battleship Slicing Blade that was a couple of meters long, it could only be Herlous.
Without saying a single word, Sherman raised his cannon and fired.
Boom boom boom!
Wave after wave of large light balls assaulted him. Herlous' eyes were extremely sharp, and he cleaved apart the ball of lights before they could even reach him.
Weaving through the balls of exploding cannon fire, Herlous cleaved his blade down at Sherman's head right before he reached the ground. However, Sherman had already foreseen this attack and avoided it.

This attack landed on the ground, and a long ditch was created with silvery flames spewing out like lava. The cracks on the ground then extended out a few dozen meters.
”Reinforcements?” Sherman was sent flying by the shockwave of the attack and was half kneeling on the ground. Licking his lips, he could taste the slight metallic taste of blood, and his killing intent burst out.
At that moment, all of the hired mercenaries also appeared and surrounded Alvin to protect him. Alvin could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Reinforcements are finally here.
Over a hundred mercenaries glared at him fiercely, but Sherman was not anxious in the slightest. He pointed his finger at Herlous, who caused him to suffer a small loss, and pointed his finger at his head like a gun before 'firing'. He obviously meant that he had his eyes on Herlous.
The next moment, the members of DarkStar arrived as well. They did not lose in numbers at all and had even more elites. Anur walked out from the crowd and said with a deep voice, ”Godoran, don't hide in a corner. You cannot escape from my senses.”
Hearing that, Nagakin walked out, and the two powerhouses glared at each other in a faceoff. Nagakin's expression was solemn as he asked, ”Where's the other one?”
Anur did not reply, and his gaze swept past the mercenaries. Counting the number of mercenaries present, he began to frown. Almost all of the hired mercenaries were there, and the enemy's camp should be empty. He knew that Ember would definitely return empty handed. However, that did not matter; Ember would not need much time to return, and they would be able to form a pincer attack to cut off all paths of retreat.
Since they were enemies, neither party spoke about their plans. Glaring at each other without a word, the situation was extremely tense.
With a single command, the killing began.
The battle had erupted!
Siii…
Anur's body swelled up, and he turned into a strange looking creature in the blink of an eye. His body was four to five meters tall with an inverted triangle as the head. His body was that of a streamlined beast with thick skin and small little holes all over. Those holes were the key to controlling the wind pressure. A long tail trailed behind the body, and his limbs turned into powerful claws. Eight strange, dog-ear-like bones could be seen on his back with its appearance looking a little like a pair of winds. However, it was a special organ like a tube for it to shoot out air. It extended out from Anur's ribs and allowed the high-pressure gas to cycle between the inside of his body and the atmosphere on the outside. It also ensured a balance of pressure on the inside and outside of the body to protect the body under high speed.
This was what Anur looked like after its transformation. His nickname was Wind Demon, and he had the special ability to control the flow of air.
Bang!
Anur's eight tubes spat out high-pressure gas, and he sped up rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he covered the distance of a few hundred meters and clashed together with Nagakin.
With him as the center, to his left and right were formless wind pressure cannons. The usually gentle air had been transformed into a powerful shockwave and decimated everything in its way.
Boom!
Wherever the wind pressure cannon passed by, the ground would crack, and the windows on the buildings to the side would be shattered. Everyone present felt that it was becoming difficult to breathe as though they were in the middle of a storm.
Nagakin broke through the wind barrier, and his fist smashed squarely onto Anur's body. His golden flames clashed straight on with the formless wind pressure, and both of them were sent flying in two different directions. Wherever they landed, a gray cloud of dust would be kicked up, and a circular crater would form.
By the time he raised his head again, Anur's figure had already disappeared, and only the violent winds were left behind. Nagakin had witnessed this ability before. The little holes on Anur's body would control the air surrounding him to coat his entire body like a shield. He would then use some unknown method to absorb the light rays and make sure that his body was no longer reflecting any light. As such, Anur's body could no longer be seen.
The two Calamity Grade Supers had to restrain each other. If not, the others fighting by the side would be in danger. Just a single Anur forced Nagakin to use all of his strength. If there was another Calamity Grade Super, he would be dead for sure.
Black Star said that the enemy will probably split up their forces. One of the Calamity Grade Supers will probably charge into our base alone. Black Star chose to stay behind to restrain the enemy. Only if we can hold down that Calamity Grade Super will we have a chance to save Alvin.
However, he is only a Grade B Super, and the Calamity Grade is too dangerous to him. Can he really do it?
Nagakin was worried.
