Chapter 205: Chapter 121: Sea Battle_2
Yan Fei calculated the number of people and found that there were only three men in black robes left who had boarded the cargo ship, including the woman in black who was carrying Lu Pingping.
Observing the direction these people were heading, Yan Fei was somewhat puzzled. He didn’t know why they were moving towards the bottom of the ship’s cabin. Could there be something at the bottom of the cabin that would enhance their combat power? Or perhaps there was something there to turn the tides of battle? Despite his confusion, Yan Fei still followed and pursued them below. After finally locating Lu Pingping, he certainly couldn’t miss this opportunity. @@novelbin@@
Fortunately, Yan Fei was wearing a ghost mask, so the black-robed assassins did not know his true identity, mistaking him for an enemy seeking revenge. Therefore, they did not use Lu Pingping to threaten him. Otherwise, Yan Fei’s situation would have been a hundred times more difficult. It was also for this reason that the assassins held out hope for escape and did not unite to fight to the death; otherwise, with their own strength, they would not have been able to kill so many enemies. The individual strength of these men in black robes was indeed terrifying, but there was still a significant gap between their strength and Yan Fei’s. Had they come together, combining their art of killing, they might have been able to stand against Yan Fei, rather than being utterly defeated. Once scattered and fighting independently, none were a match for Yan Fei, who systematically defeated them, leaving them at a complete disadvantage.
As Yan Fei sprinted forward, a dark shadow suddenly revealed its form ahead. Yan Fei had already heard someone hiding in front, so he naturally spotted the black-robed figure. Seeing the figure charging at him, Yan Fei was about to launch Steel Ball Bullets, but the shadow suddenly retreated quickly, hurling an oval object towards Yan Fei.
In the blink of an eye, Yan Fei recognized the oval object as a high-explosive grenade. He quickly moved back and heard the “boom” of an explosion. The grenade detonated, unleashing a massive blast in the confined space, sending shock waves mixed with the flames of the explosion in all directions.
Although Yan Fei saw the high-explosive grenade and retreated swiftly, he was still within the attack range of the blast. In a critical moment, he took out a custom fine steel shield from Universal Space and positioned it in front of him, blocking the explosion of the high-explosive grenade.
As the shock wave of the explosion passed, Yan Fei quickly stowed the shield and let out a painful “Ah” as he slammed his body into the ship cabin, then tumbled to a stop around a corner.
The man in the black robe who threw the grenade followed, hearing Yan Fei’s scream and the sound of his body hitting the ship cabin. However, Yan Fei had been blasted to another branch of the cabin, and now it was unclear what had become of him.
The man in the black robe pursued the branch where Yan Fei was thought to be, but before entering the branch, he threw another grenade in. Another violent explosion ensued in that branch, only this time without Yan Fei’s screams. The man in the black robe cautiously approached the corner, pulling out a mirror to scout the condition of the branching path using the reflective surface. He then saw utter chaos, with a black figure lying on the ground, completely still—none other than Yan Fei who had suddenly launched a stealth attack.
Incredibly cautious, even upon discovering Yan Fei on the ground, the man in the black robe did not let down his guard. He appeared swiftly in the branch, a pistol materializing in his hand, and fired several shots in succession, all bullets hitting the body on the ground. Seeing the corpse remain unchanged, he finally sighed in relief, walked over, and was about to check who had attempted the ambush. Just then, a shadow fell over him from above and charged down at him—it was Yan Fei, wearing a ghost mask.
Yan Fei, in a hurry to rescue Lu Pingping and not wanting to waste time here, pretended to have been killed by the grenade. The corpse was actually one of the black-robed men he had previously slain, whom he had swiftly stowed in Universal Space. He then brought out the black-robed man’s corpse at this spot, successfully deceiving the enemy and causing him to reveal himself, upon which Yan Fei launched a lethal strike.
Yan Fei, having seen that the man in the black robe was adept with firearms, assumed his kung fu would be lacking, yet to his surprise, not only was the man skilled with firearms, but also agile in movement. Even though Yan Fei ambushed him, the man did not panic; his counterattack under disadvantageous conditions was so formidable that Yan Fei felt the threat of imminent danger.
While the assassins of the Assassin Sect were highly skilled, nothing was more unpredictable than their techniques. Their martial arts moves were entirely different from all the moves Yan Fei had ever seen, utterly unconventional and nigh impossible to anticipate. Yan Fei had just gained the upper hand by ambushing his opponent, but amidst the man’s bizarre counterattacks, his advantage began to wane.
In terms of pure strength, Yan Fei was undoubtedly superior to the man in the black robe, and not by a small margin. However, coupled with those strange martial arts techniques, the black-robed man could defend against Yan Fei’s attacks and even counterattack, showcasing the Assassin Sect assassins’ extraordinary abilities. Nevertheless, this was also because Yan Fei had never before encountered such peculiar martial arts techniques; once he understood their patterns, killing the man in the black robe would be as easy as turning his hand.
With time pressing, Yan Fei had no choice but to engage in a fierce battle with the black-robed man. Seeing that his opponent had not lost his fighting spirit and the battle would not end quickly, Yan Fei decided not to rely solely on his own strength. Opening Universal Space, he located a container within it, taking out the container and causing it to appear above the black-robed man’s head. As the container materialized, a large quantity of liquid poured out and drenched the man in the black robe.
