Chapter 204: Chapter 178, Life and Death Struggle_1

Anel’s head burst open abruptly, warm blood spurting in all directions.

Gianluca jumped up abruptly, before he could make a move, another orange light bolted toward him almost simultaneously.

In front of him, a light-yellow energy shield formed, wrapping his body within.

The bullet was slightly obstructed, but it still penetrated the light shield, hitting Gianluca’s waist and abdomen, causing blood to splatter.

“Master~!” cried the servant sitting next to him.

Gianluca grabbed her body and used her as a human shield.

Almost at the same time, another bullet flew by, piercing through the back of the servant, who slumped into a pool of blood.

Gianluca rolled and crawled behind a sofa, shouting loudly, “Guard, Megel, where are you? Get over here now.”

Crackling~!

A man dressed in armor, along with several guards, hurried over.

They helped him up and dragged him to the middle of the hall, away from the windows.

“We have sent people to search the surroundings,” said a guard.

Gianluca took out a potion and drank it, then angrily exclaimed, “It must be Wu Heng, it must be him. I want him dead. Arrange it now.”

Bang~!

Another gunshot, everyone’s heart skipped a beat.

In the courtyard, someone yelled, and a search guard with a bullet hole in his forehead fell to the ground.

Bang~!

Bang Bang Bang~!

Gunshots continued to echo in the courtyard; well-equipped guards fell one after another.

No one could locate the enemy; it was as if the night sky was punishing them at random.

Killing people here at will.

Everyone hastily sought cover, with no one daring to expose themselves.

Meanwhile, the shouting Gianluca fell silent.

It seemed that, at this moment, his side was the one being slaughtered at will.

….

Atop one of the buildings.

Wu Heng observed everything happening in the distant mansion through a telescope.

When he discovered that his first shot had not killed Gianluca, he was somewhat disappointed.

If he had killed him directly, he could retreat now.

The yellow light shield protecting him.

It was clearly a high-level magic item or Special Item that could even block bullets from a sniper rifle.

“Money is good; he didn’t even die.”

In this world, not dying means nothing has happened.

A few potions, or equipping healing items, could restore one’s health.

There was no risk of wounds worsening, leading to death.

Looking through the telescope, Wu Heng glanced at the building opposite again.

Now he was cornered; Gianluca must die today.

“Lieyi, continue to target him,” Wu Heng ordered Lieyi before turning towards the Big Head Skeleton beside him, “killing spree, leave no one alive.”

Rustling~!

Down below in the streets, there was a sudden loud sound of bone friction.

The dense, piercing noise was uncomfortable to hear.

Skeletons like a surging bone tide, spread out after emerging from the alleyways.

Began charging towards the building across.

Skeletons climbed over each other, hurdled over the enclosure, and the sealed iron door was forced open.

Under the horrified gaze of all the guards, they swarmed into the courtyard, instigating a slaughter.

In an instant, the sound of wailing and fighting broke out.

Gunshots rang out from time to time.

Gianluca, protected by many guards inside the building, stared at the invading bones with the fear of death rising in his heart.

Why is this happening!

Why are so many undead appearing in the city.

Why haven’t the ‘Iron Guard Knights’ patrolling the city arrived yet.

He had money and items.

Even if he was old, he could survive with a few Special Items. He couldn’t die here.

“Hold on, the Iron Guard Knights will be here soon. I pay them so much money every year, they can’t just watch me die,” Gianluca lost his usual composure, seeing the equally anxious guards, his heart sank further, “Protect me, each of you will get 10 Gold Coins, protect me, and you’ll have endless money.”

The fight in the courtyard was over.

All the guards had been swallowed by the skeletons.

And these skeletons, with hollow eyes, were all staring straight into the building.

“Form a defensive formation, hold on until the city knights come,” the captain of the guards gave a cold command.

Everyone immediately formed a battle formation, protecting Gianluca behind them.

They began to kill the invading skeletons.

….

In the Outer City Area.

A troop of several hundred people swiftly traversed through the dim streets, everyone armored and sword-bearing, clanking as they moved.

Some people standing on the roadside did not avoid them.

They just watched them pass by.

In Lundham City, gang fights were not unusual.

There were countless large and small gangs.

Every day there were gangs being destroyed, with new ones emerging.

Especially small gangs, a few more would pop up every day.

But the established, large scale gangs, few dared to mess with them.

The White Wolf Gang was one of them.

Not only was it established earlier, but it also had a complicated relationship with the Inner City Area.

“Sister-in-law, the gang has just started developing, now we’re having direct conflict with the White Wolf Gang, this could cause some losses,” a gang backbone sped up his pace and came over to persuade.

He was relatively tactful.

For the Pinned Gang to challenge the White Wolf Gang, it was undoubtedly like hitting a rock with an egg.

The one to be destroyed would only be them.

Even if you want to go crazy, find a suitable opponent; don’t directly charge towards a stone.

Wen Mansha, dressed in a brown leather jacket, her fiery red hair tied up, her face was cold and serious.

She was well aware of all this.
