Chapter 181: The Angry Gu Ding
Gu Ding looked up at the battle ring Elsa was in. He could barely see either Elsa or Tower, just two shadows that quickly collided and separated. Each impact released a sharp, deafening soundâit sounded like iron clashing together, but with a booming sound similar to thunder. With each clash, a violent shockwave was produced.
Gu Ding only knew that the two of them had reached a stalemate. He could not see any deeper within the battle.
âSo far, Elsa has full control and there is little space of the opponent fighting back. However, that Tower guy must have defensive abilities. Heâs only moderately wounded from Elsaâs violent attacks. Elsaâs attacks barely penetrated his defenses, and itâll be difficult to mortally wound him. Itâs going to end badly for Elsa if she keeps this up. There is a time limit to her self-reinforcement. If he makes it through, sheâll be defeated for sure.â Neptune went on to elaborate. âBased on the current situation, it is highly likely that this Tower guy will survive Elsaâs enrichment period.â
Gu Ding knew Neptune would not say such a thing without reason, but he intended to reserve his seal ability for Poisonerâto avenge him for poisoning Lilliath last time. He immediately turned his eyes to Tagore.
Tagoreâs figure flickered, again and again, colorless energy vibrated with each wave of his claws. It tore black holes through the void, like black sickles gouging into a person, and went cutting in Poisonerâs direction.
Poisoner dared not let this terrible attack get close to him. He was doing everything to dodge it. He did not even dare to block the attack. The attack effect was truly horrifying, it tore a gap in the fabric of space. Even if he attacked with all his might, he could only tear a minute hole in the voidâit was less than one ten-thousandth of the size of the hole. He also knew that no matter how strong his defense was, it would be cut in half by attacks like this. Furthermore, he had never focused on bodybuilding and had never deliberately tried to improve his physical strength.
âTagore has done a good job,â Neptune could not help complimenting. âIf you want to use your seal ability on Poisoner, you can get Tagore to change opponents.â
Having known Gu Ding for so long, Neptune could probably guess why Gu Ding did not take over Elsaâs fight directly but instead set his eyes on the battle ring Poisoner was in.
âTagore, let me have that guy. You can help Elsa.â Gu Ding nodded and shouted at Tagore after hearing this.
Gu Dingâs remark surprised a lot of people.
Most of the people present had been invited by Camilia, and most of them were not weak. Many of them were Gene Bodies of Rank-10 and above. These people knew Dark Sectorsâ teamwork mode. Two people in one teamâone was the leader and one was the auxiliary. Usually, the person in charge of the task would be stronger than the auxiliary. Between the two people who came this time, Poisoner was clearly in charge of the mission because the other guy named Tower never even spoke.
Gu Ding wanted to take on Dark Sectorsâ members alone and he wanted to challenge the stronger of the two. This got many people looking at Gu Ding in surprise. Most of the people here have seen the video of Gu Dingâs battle over the last few days. His fight with Yarrow showed that his combat effectiveness was at best equivalent to a Rank-11 newbie. His opponent from Dark Sectors was a Peak Rank-12 powerhouse. Many people were wondering whether Gu Ding had too much to drink.
Tagore also paused in confusion when he heard Gu Ding shout these words to him. However, he still waved his paw and tore another five holes in the airâlike five scythes of Deathâcutting madly in Poisonerâs direction.
Poisoner dodged madly. The catâs attack had a strange spatial power that kept him at armâs length. He did not know whether he could stop it, but he was afraid to try, for the Space Streamâs powers were so great that he would be cut in half and die if he was unwary for even just a moment.
After he waved his claw, Tagore disappeared without warning and when he reappeared, he was already in Elsa and Towerâs battle ring.
He suddenly appeared beside Tower. He seemed to brandish his claw unknowingly. Tower did not dodge in time. He could only raise his right arm to block it. Five colorless ripples swung out and tore five black holes in the void. The five holes instantly hit Towerâs arm. At that moment, multiple splatters of blood shot out. Tower immediately retreatedâhis right arm had broken into several pieces. His severed hand landed on a soup bowl on the table below. The bowl of soup with reddish seasoning turned completely blood red.
They fought so fast that no one knew what was happening until pieces of Towerâs severed arm fell everywhere.
The few Rank-12 and Peak Rank-11 Gene Bodies at the party saw the incident. With their superior eyesight, they could capture Tower and Elsaâs movements. When they saw that Towerâs arm was cut off without any hindrance, it sent chills down their spine.
Including Camilia was well aware of what would happen if the catâs attack fell on her.
Tower was a Peak Rank-12 powerhouse, and judging by his fight with Elsa earlier, he definitely has a better defense than the average Peak Rank-12 powerhouses, but it happened in a flash. Now everyone knew how strong Tagore was.
On the other side of the battle ring, Gu Ding stepped out slowly. Ultimate Arts Level 10 was fully activated, Level 3 Rage Attack and Advanced Iron Block were also instantly activated.
Poisoner only glanced at the battle ring where Tower was in. Although he felt some chills in his heart, he still attempted to feign a smile. âIt seems that the little girlâs combat effectiveness enhancement time is coming to an end. To be honest, youâve really surprised us, Gu Ding. Two new members with Rank-12 combat effectiveness. However, itâs naive of you to think that you can help them buy timeâŠâ
Poisoner appeared in front of Gu Ding before even finishing. His spectral movements were fast as lightning, and he grabbed Gu Ding by the neck with one hand. Both Lilliath and Biggie furrowed their eyebrows at this scene and many others secretly sighed that Rank-12 combat effectiveness was indeed too strong to resist. Even if Gu Ding could defeat the Rank-11 Yarrow, he would still be as weak as a chicken to a Rank-12 powerhouse.
âWith one gentle push, your head could say goodbye to your body.â Poisoner laughed sinisterly. âNow get that cat and that little girl to stop, and hand over Lilliath.â
With a slight frown, Camilia wanted to attack but she was afraid that Poisoner would wring Gu Dingâs neck.
âI think youâre confused.â Gu Ding grinned suddenly. âItâs not you who decides my fate now, but I who decides yours!â
Gu Ding said and grabbed Poisonerâs wrist with one hand. Everyone heard a sharp crack in the bones. Poisoner then held his right hand and yelled in pain, âHow did that happen? My powers⊠What have you done to me?â
He then realized that he had lost all his power and had become an ordinary man. The feeling was ten thousand times worse than the loss of his arm.
âLooks like you really didnât do enough research. Didnât you know I have taboo energy before you came after me?â Gu Dingâs statement left everyone in the room completely dumbfounded.
Taboo energy was the energy that enabled Rank-1 Gene Bodies to kill gods. People with taboo energyâif they did not die youngâwould almost certainly become gods. Once they become deities, they would immediately have superior combat effectiveness over ordinary deities.
Camilia was stunned, too. It was at this point that she knew why the big shot was so wary of Gu Ding. Being an ultimate evildoer with taboo energyâif he did not die youngâhe would definitely have the power it takes to rule over Cosmic Sea and become its overlord.
âSeals of taboo energyâŠâ Poisoner gasped. This meant that he could even seal deities, let alone himself, but then he thought about the limits of that ability. âThere must be a time limit for these types of seals, right?â
âTime limit? Long enough for you to die!â Gu Ding said and squeezed his left arm. âThat was just to get back at you for trying to wring my neck. Now this one is revenge for poisoning Lilliath!â
There was another crack, and Gu Ding broke Poisonerâs left hand.
The sealed Poisoner had completely become an ordinary man, but he was still strong-willed, the pain of his broken bones only made him let out a few grunts.
Gu Ding did not intend to end it there. He lifted his foot and crushed Poisonerâs left knee cap.
âAhâŠâ Poisoner finally could not help but cry out in pain this time. He breathed heavily.
âThis is for all the people youâve killed and hurt!â Gu Dingâs eyes were so cold it was like a pool that had been frozen over for tens of thousands of years.
Poisoner could hardly stand at that moment, but he remained firm. âYour torturing methods are still too tender, boy.â
âIs it?â With a slightly sinister smile, Gu Ding let go and he fell to the ground. âThen I wonât bother torturing you. Go to hell!â
Gu Ding said and slammed his foot onto Poisonerâs chest. A sinister force instantly crushed all the bones in his chest and shattered his heart. âThis one is for Dark Sectors. No matter who you send, theyâll end up just like this!â
No one present expected it to end this way. A Dark Sectors powerhouse was killed on the spot by Gu Ding in a matter of minutes.
