When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 397 - 151 First Kill of Star Sea BOSS, Unlock A-class Superpower User Advanced Task [10k Monthly Votes]_4
Unfortunately, Stone Crystal Company did not put an Assassin on Molten Rock, which caused her to not complete the newly triggered Task, so she had to take matters into her own hands.
But thanks to Fabian striking twice in succession, inflicting Severe injuries on Molten Rock and his deputy, she now had full confidence in personally extinguishing the Fire Transmission House's fire through controlling Black Fu.
...
"Boss, you better come back early."
The underlings at the Fire Transmission House stared eagerly at Molten Rock.
Molten Rock silently nodded.
This time, having suffered such a huge loss, he would absolutely not let Fabian off, but that was to be dealt with later. For now, the urgent matter was to quickly secure a Spaceship and reconnect with his former boss to thank him for the efforts made to protect him.
He did not bring too many people with him, just a few trusted followers. First, having more people meant spending more money on the spaceship, and second, his underlings were mostly unfit to be seen in public and did not qualify to meet with anyone from the Dead Line Pirate Group.
"Let's go."
Molten Rock called out, his face looking extremely terrible.
When he returned, the first thing he would do was kill the perpetrator who had stolen his spaceship, and then he would focus on drumming up more business. Only with money would he achieve a higher status, and only with a higher status would he have the opportunity to seek revenge on Fabian.
The hover motorcycle roared through the grey-brown dirt, heading straight for the nearest interstellar travel company docking station.
The wind blew against Molten Rock's face, flipping his tangled hair back.
The freely blowing wind slightly lifted his spirits, when suddenly, he noticed a few strange white lights in his field of vision.
What's that?
Molten Rock had just felt something ominous when suddenly, several streams of Black Flame burst from the ground beneath his hover motorcycle, instantly reducing it to rubble.
He was highly focused and being a Martial Artist, had adjusted his posture before falling, avoiding the tangled, thorn-like Black Flames on the ground. The others weren't so lucky; those with better luck only fell and hit their heads while attempting to dodge, but the unlucky ones fell directly into the Black Thorn flames and were burned alive, emitting screams like slaughtering pigs.
"Who is it, Fabian, or..."
Molten Rock's body surged with True Qi, his swollen frame seeming as if wrapped in flames, terrifying in its might, although only he himself knew he was just putting on a show.
The country bumpkin's resistance and Fabian's attacks had left him with at most three-tenths of his peak power, his steel-like skin riddled with web-like fissures.
Responding to him were around a dozen white Flowing Lights flying in from the sky.
Molten Rock vibrated his fists, consolidating his Qi, and as he shouted, a fire wheel the size of a grinding stone flew out, shattering the approaching white Flowing Lights.
He protected himself, but his men weren't so fortunate. Except for his deputy, who was also an A-level Superpower User, the rest were hit by white lights, struck through their chests, spurting blood wildly.
"Damn it!"
Molten Rock charged out of the range of the Dark Thorns, his anger palpable but not completely losing his rationale. As he sprinted, he attempted to contact others for support, but upon pulling out his communicator, he discovered that the signal was being jammed.
The enemy came prepared!
Damn it.
Molten Rock crushed the communicator in his hand and shouted, "Cover me!"
The surviving Fire Transmission House thugs didn't dare to delay, hastily pulling out various firearms.
Their guns weren't like the crude ones from Ancestral Origin Star but rather various Magnetic Rail Rifles, Electromagnetic Snipers, and Particle Guns, weapons not to be underestimated.
Tatatata—
Molten Rock charged forward under the cover of a rainstorm of Electromagnetic Bullets and Particle Beams.
After quickly closing the distance, he finally saw the attacker clearly; from the outline, it was a completely unfamiliar person. However, now he couldn't care less about whether the attacker was familiar as he felt an incredibly terrifying oppressive force.
The person, wearing a simple mechanical face mask, was flanked on both sides by ten Black Balls, which absorbed the surrounding light, forming a small twisted field around themselves, with five more similar Black Balls floating in an arc above their head.
Although he didn't know what these Black Balls were, their faintly emitted aura similar to that of the Black Flame sank Molten Rock's heart like falling into a valley.
This was a formidable enemy!
In his current state, any prolongation of the battle would completely turn the situation against him, but he had nowhere to dodge; the moment he saw the person across from him, those fifteen Black Balls had already activated.
Fifteen black beams interwoven, slashing towards Molten Rock like a hundred-meter Black Blade wielded fiercely. He hurriedly dodged, Bursting energy beneath his feet, shifting tens of meters sideways explosively. When he turned back to look where the "Black Blade" had struck, all he saw was a huge crater and the ground smeared with thin Black Flame.
This move... felt increasingly familiar!
In the next second, he saw Black Fu charging straight at him. Her speed wasn't particularly fast, but to him, already Severely injured, it required his clumsy response.
"Think you can kill me that easily!"
Molten Rock swung his fists, weaving a dense net of fire in front of him.
This move was surprisingly effective; the Spiritual Ability Beams shot out from the Illusionary Law Ball, whether slicing or shooting, all failed to break through the barrier of the fire net, which seemed like the Wall of Sighs.
