Chapter 201: Turning the Tables
Long street surface.
After being plowed by the ‘Stone Ghost’ with sound waves, the bluestones laid on the street were nearly all overturned.
The monster lay on the ground, seemingly stunned, with its eyes closed.
Soon, its two dark eyes opened again.
It then jumped into the air, flapping its wings.
Its two large nostrils sniffed vigorously, then turned its head sharply towards the ancient archway at the entrance of the pedestrian street.
Luo Yan climbed up at some point.
The ‘Stone Ghost’ immediately soared into the air, made a sharp turn, and surged towards the archway.
Luo Yan emotionlessly raised his long sword.
Calculating the distance.
As ‘Stone Ghost’ entered the attack range.
Elemental Power suddenly erupted.
In an instant.
The monster instinctively felt a strong crisis, while Luo Yan’s sword slashed from afar.
On both sides of the long street, people hiding in houses.
Saw on the ancient archway.
A white rainbow shot up into the sky.
Hanging in the sky.
Just as ‘Stone Ghost’ was about to soar high, suddenly everything in sight turned white.
Then it felt like falling into a mountain flood, experiencing a powerful impact.
In such an impact, it quickly lost consciousness.
Its body disintegrated directly in the white light, flesh and blood mingled.
Then the flesh and blood were quickly crushed.
Wings, head, body, limbs.
Flesh and blood quickly vanished.
Only the parts not touched by the white light fell and landed on the street.
Suddenly.
The streets were noisy.
Broken claws, broken legs, wingtips……
Many fragments fell to the ground.
Click clack.
People bravely walked out of buildings and took photos with their phones.
And quickly posted these photos on the public network of the underground city and various social platforms.
“Shocking! Monster spotted in the Jinkou Pedestrian Street in District Four!”
“Big news! A monster appeared in the pedestrian street.”
“Look, I took some great pictures!”
“The man on the archway is so handsome, he killed a monster with one sword, protected us, love him so much.”
Various posts quickly filled the public internet, views soaring.
On the archway.
Luo Yan’s phone rang.
Call from Guang Qi.
Meanwhile.
On a building not far from the pedestrian street.
On the roof of a slope, someone half kneeling on the ridge, just putting down a tactical telescope.
Then he said, “Subject 9 has been eliminated.”
“As planned, the target used the ‘ultimate technique.'”
With that, the conversation ended.
A deep voice came through his earpiece, “Based on previous records, his skills are not yet sufficient to use the ‘ultimate technique’ twice in a short period.”
“He thought he could escape our pursuit by running into the bustling market.”
“It’s fair to say he was too naive.”
“Although the market is crowded, it is chaotic and noisy.”
“Such an environment makes assassinations easier!”
“Next, according to the plan. We will disguise ourselves as pedestrians and launch an attack when we get close to him.”
“Get ready now.”
This is the voice of the leader ‘Cobra’.
Responsible for monitoring the pedestrian street is the ‘Rattlesnake’.
The man suddenly said, “Wait.”
“It’s strange, why isn’t the target moving?”
He raised his binoculars.
In the lens, Luo Yan only came down from the archway, but didn’t leave.
Just like that, a brief moment passed.
Several Local Land Bureau vehicles were already honking their sirens and flashing lights.
In the morning, we walked to the street.
Right after that.
A female voice sounded in the headphones, “Boss, there is some movement at the garrison.”
“Those responsible for monitoring over there reported that a vehicle has just left the garrison.”
There was silence in the headphones for a moment.
The leader ‘Cobra’ murmured softly, “Could it be that he plans to turn the tables using Number 9?”
Just as ‘Cobra’ thought.
Luo Yan did not leave after defeating ‘Stone Ghost’.
A monster appeared in the bustling city, naturally attracting the attention of the Local Land Bureau.
The Local Land Bureau is a part of the security department. Even though they don’t have much power, they are official personnel.
Luo Yan’s goal is to use the incident of him killing monsters to contact the official personnel.
In this way.
If the Chu family wants to take further action, they must be prepared to conflict with the authorities.
Of course.
However, this is not enough.
So, Luo Yan also called the Corps and reported the ‘Stone Ghost’ incident.
The Corps can sit back and watch the conflict between him and the Chu family, but they cannot ignore the appearance of artificial monsters in the underground city.
These are two different matters.
In this way.
As a witness and killer of the man-made monster.
Luo Yan will naturally be taken away to assist in the investigation.
Once taken by the Corps.
At least, the Chu family won’t have a chance to act tonight.
The Chu family’s assassins want to use this man-made monster to drain Luo Yan’s power.
Luo Yan, in turn, uses the monster to secure conditions for official protection.
Soon.
The security officer from the Local Land Bureau arrived.
Luo Yan brought them to the monster’s death scene.
The security officer quickly set up a cordon nearby, taking photos of the monster’s remains as evidence.
At the same time, they received a call from the brigade.
They were asked to temporarily protect Luo Yan.
The brigade quickly arrived to pick him up.
Witnessing this scene,
The poisonous snakes fell silent.
“It looks like we have to retreat for now.”
The leader ‘Cobra’ said, “In this situation, it’s hard for us to intervene.”
“Boss, how about letting me try?” A woman’s voice came through the communication channel.
She was the only woman among the Chu Family’s assassins, codenamed ‘Hundred-Step Snake’.
“I can go as a journalist, interview the target, and seize the opportunity to kill.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let him die violently.”
“I can poison him and make him die on the road!”
After some consideration, ‘Cobra’ said, “Alright.”
“But you must be cautious.”
“I understand.”

In the center of the long street, within the caution line, Luo Yan is resting.
As he waits for the arrival of the troops.
His figure caught the attention of a pair of eyes.
‘Hundred-Step Snake’!
She, around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, wore a long orange dress, with a press pass hanging around her neck and carrying a handbag.
Inside the handbag were a handgun, a poisonous blade, and several bottles of deadly liquid.
Known as the ‘Snake’, she excelled in using poison and was skilled in mixing toxins.
Once the poison she made takes effect, even gods cannot save the person.
At this moment, ‘Hundred-Step Snake’ looked at her artificial fingernails used for decoration.
It contains a special toxin.
This toxin can seep into the body through the skin even with just a touch.
It doesn’t act immediately, there is a 30 minutes to one-hour dormant period.
But once it takes effect, the poisoned person will immediately die a gruesome death.
It’s like a time bomb in the poison.
It’s also one of ‘Hundred-Step Snake’s proudest creations.
She took out a recording pen, showed a professional smile, stood tall and confidently stepped up to the warning line.
Show your press pass.
After a brief conversation, the security officer let her in.
‘Hundred-Step Snake’ first took several photos of the strange monsters on the ground with her phone before approaching Luo Yan.
Her plan was to pretend to interview Luo Yan and get the recording device near him.
Then, she just needed to lightly brush her poison-coated arm against Luo Yan’s skin.
The mission would be successfully completed!
