Chapter 11 A-022 Rakshasa

Now that fire poison couldn't harm Suren, Yan Gui's plan had also failed.

If he didn't actively show himself and attack, he wouldn't be able to do anything to Suren.

And Suren wouldn't just sit and wait for death. He controlled the Eight-Armed Spider Spears and immediately began to run wildly.

Before, he was wary of Yan Gui finding an opening for a fatal blow, but now, after injecting the "X-Agent," his body's toughness, resistance, and recovery ability were getting stronger and stronger.

He was now confident that Yan Gui couldn't kill him with a single blow.

On the contrary, the moment the other party couldn't help but attack would be the moment the victory or defeat was decided.

Although he couldn't see the surrounding situation, Suren could roughly tell which direction was south. Without a word, he charged straight in that direction.

The spider legs had the ability to ignore obstacles. He climbed over walls and buildings, not caring whether there was a road or not, and his speed became faster and faster.

However, even so, the cloud of smoke followed closely behind, like a shadow.

Even though he was full of openings while running wildly, Suren didn't care at all.

The two chased each other south all the way from Green Street.

Suren originally thought that Yan Gui would see the openings he was exposing and couldn't help but attack. After all, if they really went to the complex terrain outside the city, the situation would be even more disadvantageous for the pursuer.

But unexpectedly, just when both of them were looking for opportunities to kill each other, something unexpected happened.

A cloaked figure rushed over at high speed and blocked the way.

The person opened his mouth and questioned, "Sangbu, are you from the Umbrella Organization?"

The voice was disguised, and it was impossible to tell whether it was male or female.

...

Suren watched as someone blocked his way, and initially thought that a high-ranking professional from the Umbrella Organization had arrived.

But the moment he saw the cloak, his expression immediately became very subtle.

The person was wearing a black cloak with an ancient style, making it impossible to see his face.

It looked a bit like a cloak of concealment used by high-ranking professionals in the black market's small circle, but whether it was the material or the workmanship, it was visibly several grades higher.

It wasn't an ordinary pure black. This cloak had beautiful patterns simply outlined with golden lines: snakes, eagles, lizards, fire dragons, thorny flowers... hidden metaphoric patterns that appeared in alchemy books.

The golden patterns on the cloak looked like decorations, but when combined, they seemed like some kind of profound alchemical array. Upon closer inspection, one would feel a strong sense of mystery.

This cloak looked like something from the homes of those truly wealthy ancient nobles.

Moreover, another factor caught Suren's attention.

The instant that person caught up, Suren saw a golden "§" symbol on the back of the cloak.

Suren had seen this symbol twice before. Once was when he had just transmigrated, and one of the five statues in the underground altar of Stormwind Manor was engraved with it.

The other time was on the back of the [Isaac's Alchemy Manuscript 3] in his arms, at the core of the eight-pointed star alchemy array.

Now this cloak was the third time.

Suren guessed that this symbol was related to some kind of S-grade talent.

Because when he awakened [S-018-Omniscient Eye], the statue with the "ꧧ" symbol had shattered along with it; then, when he awakened [S-004-Death Reaper], the statue with the "☽" symbol had also shattered.

Usually, clothing with obvious markings represents a certain organization.

Like the Iron Cross of the Knights of the Cross.

This cloaked person must be from a mysterious organization.

Suren's first reaction was that the person was Mr. Black, because he had gone to the basement at 88 Ginkgo Street, and Mr. Black should already know that he had been there.

But looking at the cloaked person's aggressive aura, he immediately ruled it out.

Mr. Black always gave people the feeling of being as still as a deep well, while this person was radiating a fiery killing intent, revealing an overbearing aura.

Since he couldn't sense any "malice," Suren stopped and didn't move rashly.

The other party had caught up with a few leaps just now, so his physical strength must be extremely strong.

Now he was questioning Yan Gui, so the situation didn't seem like he should be an enemy.

...

Yan Gui heard the cloaked person's question and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

The cloaked person didn't answer at all, and asked again, "You only need to answer, yes or no."

Naturally, Yan Gui couldn't lie through his teeth. After all, there was also Suren, who knew the truth, at his side. He could only change the subject, "What does it have to do with you?"

"So that's it."

The cloaked person's tone was a bit overbearing.

If you don't admit it, so be it.

If I say it is, then it is.

As he spoke, his aura rose higher and higher, and he seemed ready to attack.

Yan Gui was baffled by the other party's aggressive aura and snorted coldly.

But he obviously realized that the other party had bad intentions, so he didn't hide it anymore. He said directly, "Now that you know I'm from 'Umbrella,' what do you mean by stopping me?"

Yan Gui could tell from the cloaked person's aura that he must be a high-ranking professional. If they really fought now, he, with a broken arm, would definitely suffer.

Moreover, there was also that guy with the scythe, watching him like a hawk.

Once he exposed his figure, he knew that his situation would be very dangerous.

"What do I mean? Naturally, to kill you!"

Unexpectedly, bringing out the identity of the "Umbrella Organization" not only didn't improve Yan Gui's situation, but the cloaked person directly released all his aura. With a stomp, he charged towards the cloud of smoke!

...

"So strong!"

Suren's pupils shrank.

Looking at the movement of the airwaves created by the cloaked person's stomp on the ground, he knew that this guy's close combat ability must be extremely strong.

This was a very advanced dashing technique. That stomp wasn't just putting force on the ground with the sole of the foot, but also compressing the air into an air burst and using the force to dash forward.

However, to start killing right away upon meeting, this person's personality is very fiery.

But knowing that Yan Gui is from the Umbrella Organization, he still dares to attack?

In the entire Old Lingdun, there aren't many people or forces who truly dare to actively oppose the Umbrella Organization.

Seeing this, a thought suddenly flashed through Suren's mind.

When he went to inquire about information in the black market before, someone said that a month ago, the woman who bombed the West City Laboratory and had a bounty on her head was cornered by the Umbrella Organization in the North City. Just as they were about to successfully surround and kill her, a "third-party force" suddenly appeared, tearing apart the Umbrella Organization's encirclement and allowing the woman to escape again.

Could this cloaked person be that "third-party force"?

Although he guessed this, Suren wasn't planning to watch the high-ranking professionals fight.

Now that someone was holding back Yan Gui, he wouldn't have to risk using the black scythe to strike a second blow.

Just as he was about to take the opportunity to slip away, unexpectedly...

The battle came suddenly, and ended even more suddenly!

Even though Suren had a psychological estimate that the cloaked person dared to intercept Yan Gui, and his strength was likely not weak.

But looking at the scene before him, his eyes were still full of disbelief!

...

Yan Gui hid in the mist, and wanting to kill him was a considerable trouble for anyone.

But unexpectedly, the cloaked person directly used a big move upon meeting!

When he rushed out, the fiery killing intent instantly surged, becoming higher and higher.

In that instant, the purple and black aura suddenly condensed into a strange illusory figure with delicate features, yet revealing an aura of solemn dignity. With flaming upright hair and six knotted arms each holding a weapon, it was clearly the image of a Rakshasa woman from ancient mythology.

"The Mythological Talent [A-022-Rakshasa]?"

Suren's gaze froze. He recalled the introduction to this rare talent that he had seen in the books.

"No, even an A-grade talent can't possibly be this strong!"

He remembered that the books described this talent as only being able to greatly enhance the physical body, and he had never heard of a talent that could manifest such an external phenomenon.

Moreover, most of the A-grade talents in the entire outer city of Old Lingdun are famous figures, and he had never heard of anyone who had awakened this kind of mythological talent.

Huh... Could it be a second awakening of a talent like Danny's?

Who could this person be?

Suren didn't have time to think.

Because the battle had already ended at this time.

The cloaked person's speed was so fast that he was like a shooting star; his strength was so strong that he sent Yan Gui, who was hiding in the dense fog, flying backwards while spitting blood with a single blow!

Even though Yan Gui had a broken arm, he was still a genuine second-tier professional.

He was defeated with a single blow?

Yan Gui, lying on the ground and spitting blood, looked like gold paper. He obviously recognized who the cloaked person was, and was filled with horror: "It's you! How could you be so strong?!"

But in the next instant, the cloaked person didn't give him a chance to speak at all. With a flash, he kicked him hard on the head again.

A bone-cracking sound that made people's backs run cold was heard.

Sangbu Kachinsky, a long-established veteran cadre of the Knights of the Cross and a well-known second-tier professional, died on the spot!

...

Before he had time to slip away, the battle ended.

Suren looked at this explosive murder scene, clenched the big black scythe in his hand, then loosened it again, and a complex expression of confusion, shock, and emotion intertwined on his face.

The voice, face, and even the figure could be changed by that cloak.

But the style of doing things had a strong sense of deja vu.

When he thought about Yan Gui's expression of recognizing an acquaintance before he died, Suren probably guessed who this person was.

He just didn't expect that she would be so ridiculously strong...

What exactly is going on with the Knights of the Cross? It's one thing that there was a traitor from the Umbrella Organization, but how could she be that "third-party force"?

At this time, the cloaked person looked at Suren, who hadn't escaped, and was staring at her with astonishment. She also seemed very unbelievable and asked, "You recognized me?"

Hearing this tone, Suren was even more certain of his guess. His expression was complicated as he said, "Yeah, Sister Chi-Tiao..."
