Pretending To Be A Boss

In the chaotic battlefield, it was nearly impossible to detect him.

It was like hiding a sane madman among a bunch of lunatics.

The situation in battle was changing.

The chainsaw and the dwarf displayed terrifying combat power.

These two, always guarding the clown's side, received new instructions from the clown.

Capture Song Que.

The pressure on Song Que and his companions increased dramatically.

Once the bulky chainsaw appeared, Lin Jue and Gu Luo joined forces to attack.

The terrifying force of a baseball bat and a giant sword capable of slicing through steel struck the chainsaw head-on.

But their feedback was as if they had hit a clump of cotton.

The sharp blades couldn't penetrate the body filled with fat, and the thick layer perfectly absorbed the force of the bat.

The chainsaw's mouth curved into a smile as he lifted his terrifying chainsaw and began to swing it wildly.

Indiscriminately, all hunters who stood in his way of killing Song Que were severely injured by the chainsaw.

Clouds of blood stained the air.

Lin Jue, holding a baseball bat, tried to confront the chainsaw head-on but was instantly flicked away by a flick from Lao Lei.

Lao Lei, who rarely spoke, said:

"Lin Jue, this is an enemy you cannot overcome by force."

Lin Jue quickly calmed down.

He had no doubt about Lao Lei's strength and grumbled:

"It's up to you now, old man."

Lao Lei nodded and flicked his fingers repeatedly.

Thunder struck once more.

The chainsaw, who couldn't be defended against even by the combined efforts of Lin Jue and Gu Luo, showed a painful expression and let out a furious roar when hit by the massive thunder.

But Lao Lei paid no attention. His fingers continued to flick rhythmically, and the lightning followed one after another.

Gu Luo and Ye Feng watched in utter shock.

This was the ace of the top three families?

A burnt smell emanated from the chainsaw.

The big man finally fell.

But before the crowd could even breathe a sigh of relief, a shrill sound like a monkey's screech came through.

Lao Lei looked around in shock as a claw pierced through his abdomen, where just a moment ago there had been no one, and now a skin-and-bones dwarf appeared.

He emerged suddenly, his face contorted with a twisted smile, frenetic and evil.

He made frantic squeaking noises.

The claw that had penetrated Lao Lei's abdomen began to stir wildly.

Lao Lei coughed up blood.

"My lord..."

Lao Lei couldn't finish what he wanted to say as his consciousness began to blur.

The strongest combat power of the Song Family had been ended in such a manner, leaving everyone's mind blank.

The dwarf retracted his claw, and his figure started to fade slowly.

Invisible.

It was only then that everyone realized that this dwarf was the deadliest assassin.

As consciousness was about to dissipate and vision grew cloudy, there was still a hint of fierceness deep in Lao Lei's eyes.

He flicked his index finger one last time.

A massive bolt of lightning fell, targeting Lao Lei himself.

The terrifying thunder was deafening, instantly drowning out all laughter.

Alongside the thunder, there was a piercing scream from the dwarf.

The smoke rolled. Lao Lei died. Beside him was another charred corpse.

The Cyclops was stunned.

Lin Jue's teeth bit through his lips.

Doctor Qin walked up to Lao Lei's body and shook his head helplessly.

The battle of the hunters continued.

It didn't end because of anyone's death.

Song Que's eyes reddened as he said:

"Maintain the previous formation, keep fighting, don't let Lao Lei die in vain!"

The sudden tragedy filled the ranks of Gu Luo and Song Que with grief and anger.

Grief and anger can bring about fighting spirit.

But such spirit didn't last long.

As one wave subsided, another arose.

After the clown's two guardians, fat and thin, fell, Song Que and his people faced another wave of strong enemies.

When Song Que saw that annoying smile on Qi Xun's face, he finally realized something.

Gu Luo was right.

He had been too naive.

The truly terrifying enemies were not the beasts, but the hunters.

In this hunting festival, every team had their preparations, eager to make a big show.

But from the very start of the hunt, they had all become prey to some evil existence.

...

...

Fortress 39, Level 7.

Li Wanye was going through the documents. These were the recent reports from the evolution zone.

His expression was grave.

Song Gengzhao still maintained an optimistic attitude.

"Li, what are you worried about? Don't have confidence in your own child?" Song Gengzhao asked.

"I never liked cooperating with the evolution zone; my son thinks it holds the future for mankind. I knew the evolution zone would send people to attend the hunting festival. What I didn't expect was for Lincoln Fortress to grant them such convenience."

Li Wanye continued:

"They even sent out the best test subjects from the evolution zone, one of them with the terrifying ability to turn thoughts into ice."

"Also, the evolution zone's deadliest assassin, code-named 004. But the evolution zone denies they dispatched the clown."

"To them, the clown is an uncontrollable failure. Under joint pressure from Lincoln Fortress and our Fortress 39, they just sent us internal trial data from the evolution zone."

"The clown originally was an evolution zone physician responsible for hypnosis experiments. He has an intimate knowledge of each test subject that was formed three years ago."

"The clown fooled two evolution zone test subjects, or rather, he had provided psychological guidance to two test subjects before. So, the Hunter's Group from Lincoln Fortress didn't suspect a thing, or maybe they were all hypnotized by the clown."
