CHAPTER 313: CHAPTER 195: MELEE—CHAPTER 196: STORAGE TALISMAN? (END OF FOURTH UPDATE)

Chapter 195: Chaos (Third Update)

Seeing the guard about to wake up, Youyou raised her hand for another knife-hand strike.

She thought for a moment and then took out a dose of anesthetic, pouring it into the guard’s mouth.

There was little time just now, and she couldn’t care less about this person. Now, pouring down a dose of anesthetic was also for his own good.

More than two minutes later, the alarm suddenly blared, and Qu Jianlei flashed out, floating out of a ground hole, "Run!"

Youyou dashed out, still asking, "What did you do?"

Is this the time for questions? Qu Jianlei was a bit amused, but he still answered, "Accidental touch."

In fact, it wasn’t accidental. After entering the reserve vault, he saw a massive amount of gold and rows of safes.

He collected the gold and smaller safes into his storage ring, which was so full it could hardly hold anything more.

There were two large safes that he couldn’t stow away, so he took out tools for brute-force cracking.

Just as the safe opened, the alarm went off. Qu Jianlei immediately saw... it was filled with transformation potions!

"Unlucky!" He took dozens of boxes of transformation potions and turned to run.

He ran fast, but two B-level warriors in a nearby residential area instantly became alert and sprang out.

One of the warriors had a gold attribute, and the other had a water attribute, "Where do you think you’re going, little thief?"

"Vine Binding!" Youyou formed a gesture, and several vines suddenly emerged, directly binding the gold attribute warrior.

Gold can overcome wood, but the binding skill from the wood attribute is far more powerful than the wind binding technique.

Caught off guard, the warrior’s body jerked to a halt. As he was about to struggle, more vines emerged to bind him.

He was shocked for a while, "Two B-level wood attribute warriors?"

The other water attribute warrior had already taken action, aiming a water tornado directly at Qu Jianlei.

A water tornado is not only impactful but also binding. Seeing the pair, he definitely aimed for the man first.

Qu Jianlei’s body flashed aside, dodging the water tornado, then, like a phantom, flashed beside the gold attribute warrior.

"How dare you!" The water attribute warrior roared with anger, but inside was puzzled: How could someone with a wood attribute have such a good body technique?

The gold attribute warrior had just broken free from the vines when a dazzling blade light slashed down, faster than lightning.

He was so terrified that he was both shocked and furious, yelling, "How dare you!"

What does it matter if he dares or not? Qu Jianlei slashed down, the head flew, blood splattering everywhere.

"Water Arrow!" The water attribute warrior had already adjusted his emotions, a dense barrage of water arrows shot towards Qu Jianlei.

He was trapped in a one against two dilemma, but he had responsibilities as a guardian, and couldn’t retreat.

However, at that moment, he felt his body tighten slightly, horrified once again, "There’s a third person?"

It was Xiao Moshan, executing a standard wind binding technique.

After using the wind binding technique, he grabbed Youyou and began a desperate escape, completely ignoring Qu Jianlei.

Qu Jianlei dashed forward, dodging a large area of water arrows, then used another vine binding.

However, the water attribute warrior broke free from the wind binding technique desperately, shifting quickly to the side.

Couldn’t hide anymore! Qu Jianlei fired a bolt of lightning without hesitation, "Thunder Dragon!"

The water attribute warrior was shocked once again, "You are..."

But it was too late. The lightning struck him heavily, leaving him charred all over, barely clinging to life.

Logically, Qu Jianlei could have left quickly, but the opponent had discovered he possessed two techniques, and he had to silence him!

He flashed his body to the water attribute warrior again, slashed down, grabbed the opponent’s pouch, and fled.

This battle seems lengthy in words, but it really didn’t take long, totaling only twenty seconds or so, not even half a minute.

However, with the fight starting here, it wasn’t long before others noticed, discovering the collision of multiple techniques.

Since it was a battle between B-level warriors, those below B-level didn’t dare to get close and watch.

Even B-level warriors didn’t dare to approach too closely—who knew what was causing this street battle.

A-level ones weren’t afraid to watch, but nearby only Bai Yansheng was A-level, and he had to hold down the research institute.

Upon hearing the alarm, he already reacted that something went wrong with the reserve vault, but he wasn’t in a hurry to go.

His primary task was to guard the research institute, and if things didn’t reach a point of irreparability, he wouldn’t act.

By a twist of fate, Qu Jianlei avoided a big trouble.

His original plan was to use the reserve vault being looted to lure Bai Yansheng out, and then sneak into the research institute quietly.

However, his plan was a bit wishful thinking. Why would Bai Yansheng necessarily go out?

Fortunately, he stuffed too much into the reserve vault, and his storage ring was "too small."

Then he triggered the alarm, leaving no time to covet the research institute.

Plans couldn’t keep up with changes, and in this case, he didn’t even realize he narrowly escaped a disaster.

The B-level warriors at the research institute sensed the fight, first paying attention and then rushing out to assist.

"Just let the second team go!" Bai Yansheng issued the order, "The other two teams, raise your alert!"

However, just as he was speaking, the battle had already ended, and by the time the second team arrived on the scene, the opponents had already fled.

The second team consisted of only three B-level warriors, including the captain, vice-captain, and a highly skilled expert.

Seeing the two B-level warriors killed, the second team felt a bit nervous, "Should we pursue?"
