Chương 10: Special Bullets

When Hugo magically pulled out a rocket launcher, Shi Tian had nearly thought his eyes were drowsy and saw things wrongly.

However, when he glanced again and saw Hugo, the elderly man who was using the rocket launcher to aim at the mutated Hounders, he was sure that his eyes were not playing some tricks.

The rocket launcher truly came out of nowhere and Shi Tian began to wonder if that was the current technology of this world.

To be able to store a rocket launcher and pull it out without much effort, was a game-changing event.

Under the watchful eyes of Shi Tian, Hugo fired off his rocket launcher, directly landing at the mutated Hounder.

BOOOM!

A loud explosion occurred, and just when everyone thought it was effective, the dust scattered away slowly, only to reveal the mutated Hounder completely unharmed.

The mutated Hounder made a snorting sound and propelled itself toward Hugo, seemingly ready to retaliate against him for shooting a rocket launcher.

"Hmph, a damn hound dares to show such a vicious glare and attack me?" Hugo sneered coldly, seemingly unfazed by the mutated Hounder launching toward him.

Using the strength of his legs, Hugo kicked backward to gain some distance between the two. Afterward, he aimed his rocket launcher at the mutated Hounder.

BOOM!

Another shot was fired point blank at the mutated Hounder, and this time, the mutated Hounder seemed to have taken quite a toll.

It was shot backward and blood began leaking from its flesh.

Meanwhile, Hugo started laughing wildly as he blew off some smoke from the rocket launcher.

"Normal bullets and rockets don't hurt you, but I doubt you can withstand modified ones created by Espers," Hugo smirked.

"Don't waste too much of those special bullets, Hugo. Those cost a lot to restock and these mutated Hounders aren't worth it." Yolanda suddenly said from the sideline.

Hugo nodded his head.

"Rest assured, I know the limit of our budgets. Look at Xavier struggling with that mutated Hounder. I would be damned if I continue to save these special bullets."

Right as Hugo finished his words, he proceeded to fight the injured mutated Hounder, who had begun to retreat after realizing his defense failed to deflect Hugo's new attack.

Shaking his head, Hugo turned into a madman and chased after the mutated Hounder to finish it off.

As for Xavier, he also managed to slice the head of the second mutated Hounder using a dagger that was glowing in a bright color.

Throughout this entire process, Shi Tian was amazed by their fighting strategy and how easy it was for them to kill these monsters.

It was a far cry from when he recalled that the monsters first appeared in their world and began to slaughter humans like they were nothing.

'But what is this Espers they are talking about? Did humans really obtain some superpower that usually happens in movies?' Shi Tian thought to himself.

Although he was far away from the battlefield, his eyesight was quite good to the point that he had seen Xavier's smooth and swift movement.

Despite his rough and brash action, Xavier was able to avoid a direct confrontation with the mutated Hounder and constantly retaliate by using his dagger to slash at the same area.

The dagger was originally attached to the assault rifle on Xavier's hand, but realizing that normal bullets don't do anything, he detached the dagger and began melee combat.

This was something that not many people could do since one mishap means death.

Sometime later, both the mutated Hounders were killed, their corpses being dragged by Hugo and Xavier respectively.

"Heh, what a hoard we got today. Two mutated monsters are going to be worth a fortune. This trip wasn't wasted." Xavier smirked and began to imagine what type of stuff he could buy.

"I can drink some good booze after a long day," Hugo was eager to return back to drink some alcohol.

And as the two were ready to head back, Yolanda's expression changed as she quickly warned.

"Wait, there's another monster rapidly approaching us." She yelled out.

"3 kilometers… 2 kilometers… damn it, it's beneath us."

The next moment, the ground beneath them ruptured in the air and a new monster appeared.

Yolanda, Xavier, and Hugo managed to regain their foothold after making some gymnastic movements as horror filled their faces.

In front of them was a robotic monster that towered over everything in its path, its metal tentacles whipping through the air like the arms of an angry octopus.

The robot monster's body was composed of a tangled mass of metal and wires, its glowing red eyes scanning the area.

The tentacles were the most striking feature of the monster, each one lined with razor-sharp blades and capable of extending and retracting with lightning speed. The monster used them to devastating effect, slashing through abandoned buildings and rusted vehicles as if they were nothing more than paper.

As the monster moved, it emitted a low, menacing hum, the sound of its motors and servos working tirelessly to keep it moving. Its movements were fluid and graceful, yet somehow unnatural, almost as if the creature was alive yet not quite of this world.

Not to mention Yolanda's group, even Shi Tian was frightened slightly when he saw the monster's appearance before calming down.

'Was this why some of the buildings I came across had some slash marks? Was it all due to those razor-sharp tentacles?' Shi Tian managed to deduce the clues and realized that the mutated Hounders were no different than sewage rats compared to this new monster.

While Shi Tian was wondering how Yolanda's group was going to fight the monsters, he saw the spiky-haired dude tuck his pants and run toward the vehicle.

"Where are you going, Xavier?" Hugo called out in anger.

"Hmph, that's a Tenceloras, and even with those special bullets, it wouldn't deal anything to it. You all can stall for me." Xavier sneered coldly and stepped on the pedal, going into reverse mode as he prepared to retreat.
