Chapter 439 The Darkest Hour Before the Dawn

“So that's how it is. s.h.i.+wen should also work harder in the future!” Yang s.h.i.+wen was motivated and shook her small fist vigorously.

Liu Feng said with a smile, “Well, don't be so excited. Now get some sleep. I don't think the fighting will be over until daybreak.”

“How can I fall asleep!”

When Yang s.h.i.+wen was talking, they heard the boom of the explosion outside again. The small building where they stayed even vibrated a few times!

Liu Feng shrugged with resignation. He took out a few silver needles and did acupuncture for himself.

Outside, Black Emissary just fired a rocket projectile towards the enemy below. Carrying the bazooka, he turned around and said, “Ha! Justices, you're so cool!”

“Justices, I didn't expect you to be so powerful. You actually killed two people in the blink of an eye!” Though Black Emissary had left just now, he didn't climb the wall again until he saw Justices kill the enemy. Now he turned around and walked up the stairs with ease.

Whew!

Xiaomin also took a deep breath in relax.

“Justices, you really did a nice job!” Standing on the left wall, White Emissary who had been sniping at the Palm Gold Palace also turned back and gave him the thumbs-up.

In this case, although the fighting was still fierce, the Netherworld had basically had the absolute initiative.

However, with so many people partic.i.p.ating from three sides, the battle was bound to be long-drawn-out as long as the three parties wouldn't retreat.

But would these three parties retreat?

The Red Scarf Army, responsible for frontal a.s.sault, would rather be wiped out than retreat since General Berberto had received the money.

As for the Cross Legion in the rear, they could not retreat even if they wanted because the Netherworld had already gone all out. These two forces were engaged in the most brutal close fighting with cold weapons. So there was no chance of retreating.

And on the left side….

On the side of the Palm Gold Palace, flames of the war died down because there were not so many members of Palm Gold Palace engaged in the battle. The Netherworld almost wiped out their opponents as they used the terrain to their advantage and had superior firepower. Even the firing began to die away.

“You think the Palm Gold Palace was just defeated, don't you? Ho-ho!”

However, the baldhead who had been hiding behind suddenly moved at this moment. He quietly lurked in the gra.s.s like a beast stalking its prey at night.

Five minutes later, there was almost no firing on the left-side wall.

Letan Waever, White Emissary, took a deep breath and raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face. But he actually found the blood on his hand. “F*ck! I fought so fiercely tonight that I even didn't notice when I got blood on my face.”

“Yeah. White Emissary leader, more than 50 Gatlin guns that you prepared were worn out under high frequency usage condition.” A member of the Netherworld besides White Emissary gasped and said excitedly.

At this moment, however, a shaft of light suddenly appeared on the two-and-half-meter-wide wall.

“Netherworld, you were doing well. But it's not time for you to relax!”

That shaft of light was actually a big bald head under the moon. That was right. The last baldhead of the Palm Gold Palace appeared.

“Who are….”

Boom!

White Emissary wanted to ask who the bald man was. He had a swift response and had already intended to attack while the bald man moved faster and punched White Emissary on the belly.

The noise made by the punch was as loud as drums. White Emissary suddenly fell down from the wall.

“White Emissary!”

“Old White!”

At this moment, Justices and Black Emissary cried out in alarm at the same time.

White Emissary seemed to lose consciousness in mid-air and his body flew backwards following the parabola.

At the most critical moment, Justices dashed forward and took White Emissary into his arms.

“It's useless. No one can survive since I attacked.” The baldhead smirked and also jumped down.

“D*mb*ss, go to h.e.l.l!”

Black Emissary also jumped off the front wall. In mid-air, he aimed at the baldhead and constantly pulled the trigger.

Bang, bang, bang!

Tongues of flame shot in the night when bullets were released from the gun.

“It's clever of Black Emissary to shoot in mid-air. In this way, his opponent can't dodge no matter how powerful he is.” When Xiaomin saw the scene, a charming smile came up on her ruddy, tired face.

However, the baldhead actually buried his head in his hands in mid-air and turned his body.

Clink, clink, clink….

What's more strange was that the bullets actually made sounds like striking metal when they hit the baldhead.

Threatened by the bullets, the baldhead was only kind of awkward in mid-air but landed on both feet safely in the end.

“Still alive?” Black Emissary who also fell to the ground couldn't believe his eyes.

“How is this possible?” Xiaomin's smile faded.

“It's the bulletproof vest!”

Justices suddenly yelled, “This guy is wearing a bulletproof vest in his clothes. Ordinary pistols can't hurt him.”

“Justices, you are right. The bodyguard of the Master G.o.d of Gambling in Palm Gold Palace is always wearing a super alloyed bulletproof vest.” The baldhead turned and said with a sneer, “Can you guess who I am?”

“Ca.s.sius!”

Justices suddenly lost his cool composure and looked stunned, “Let's fight together. He is Ca.s.sius, a real super master of the Western world.”

During the conversation, Justices had laid unconscious White Emissary down on the ground. At the same time, he stamped and made a rush at his opponent like a cannonball.

“Justices, you're right. Now that you know who I am, do you think things will be different if you attack me?” Ca.s.sius sneered and also rushed up to Justices.

Bang!

There was no doubt that Justices was forced to step back when their fists collided. And his fist was b.l.o.o.d.y and cracked.

“Ca.s.sius, don't be arrogant. I am still here!” Black Emissary also rushed up, stretching out his big black hands like two steel hooks to seize Ca.s.sius's throat.

“So weak. You are just courting death.” Ca.s.sius completely looked down on Black Emissary. He leaped up and gave Black Emissary a kick on the chest.

Bang!

Kicked by Ca.s.sius, Black Emissary flew backward and spat out lots of blood.

But even so, Black Emissary still didn't put down his hands. Instead, he violently grabbed Ca.s.sius's ankles with his two big black hands.

The sound of ripping.

As soon as Ca.s.sius took his feet back, the bottom edges of trousers were torn. Blood welled out from the rips.

“Not bad, you actually scratched me. But such shameless method might drag down the reputation of the nine soul-reaper messengers of the Netherworld!” Ca.s.sius did a somersault before he landed and said sarcastically.

Ahem… Hhha!

Black Emissary coughed violently and then suddenly laughed, “Idiot. You're the super master in the West, right? But do you know that Black Emissary, one of the nine soul-reaper messengers of the Netherworld, is a master of poisoning? Even Big Boss Yama, the miracle-working doctor, regards my poison as a headache.”

“What?” Ca.s.sius's face suddenly darkened and cried out in alarm, “Feet, my feet. No. My legs are completely numb. What poison is this?”

“This poison. I haven't named it yet.”

Sitting on the ground limply, Black Emissary smirked, “The main ingredients I used were African cobras, South American poisonous scorpions, a.r.s.enic from Celestial Empire and red head spiders from Southeast Asia. I also mixed dozens of different venoms. I've only conducted one experiment after I made this kind of poison. An elephant was poisoned in just five seconds. Anyway, there is no antidote.”

“F*ck…” Ca.s.sius yelled angrily. But before he finished swearing, he slumped to the ground, kicking madly and bleeding from seven openings of his head.

Whew!

At this moment, people present all sat on the ground at the same time. They each let out a sigh of relief and began laughing.

“It was terrible. If we confronted with toughness, only uninjured Big Boss Yama could defeat Ca.s.sius.”

“Yeah. If it weren't for the wicked poison made by Old Black, I am afraid we would have been all in danger this time.”

“Get up, everyone. You need to receive timely treatment.”

When Xiaomin came to help the wounded up and talked about the treatment, Justices suddenly thought of something.

“Time. What time is it now?” When Justices asked this question, he was still looking around. “The firing outside is dying away. We have been fighting for such a long time. Hurry up, tell me what time it is?”

“It's 3:30 a.m…”

“Justices, why are you making such a fuss?”

At this moment, Ghost King and Luo Tengfei came back.

These two soul-reaper messengers each carried a scimitar. Their clothes, faces and scimitars were all b.l.o.o.d.y.

They were followed by a group of members of the Netherworld. These horrible people all looked as if they had come out of the h.e.l.l of blood.

“3:30 in the morning!”

Justices suddenly said loudly, “There is no time for treatment. It is exactly the darkest hour before the dawn! Everyone must be on high alert.”

“Justices, what else should we pay attention to? We almost wiped out 5,000 Red Scarf Army soldiers!” Black Emissary said delightedly.

“Yeah, Justices, don't be too nervous.” Ghost King also mumbled, “This battle started on yesterday morning and went on till the small hours of this morning. The aborigines in the tribe were terrified and lots of soldiers of our Netherworld were killed or wounded. Please don't scare us.”

Boom!

However, at this moment, a sudden boom of an explosion came outside the right wall of the tribe which hadn't been attacked.

The large wall was suddenly blasted through in the middle, scattering large chunks of debris everywhere. The air resounded with smoke and dust.

Presently, ten fully-armed soldiers rushed in. And in front of them stood two old men who were over fifty years of age.

“Who are you?”

“Whoever breaks into the base of the Netherworld will die immediately!”

“No matter who you are, just don't even think about leaving.”

At this moment, hundreds of members of the tribe pointed their guns at the enemy at the same time. Justices and others also stood up and confronted the twelve people who just appeared.

However, when members of the Netherworld aimed at them, they were just 15 meters away from Justices and his fellows, holding their guns.

“Don't be nervous. If we open fire at this distance, no one will be alive.”

“You don't need to ask where we come from and I believe you also know what we are here for. If you don't want to suffer heavy casualties, just take out your high-end weapons and fight with us!”

The two elderly men who led this group of people took a step forward at the same time and provoked the Netherworld with disdain.
