Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 1605 1426: Closing Curtains 2

Meanwhile, in a certain location near the Dali's Kingdom, an underground labyrinth.

Boom!

The constantly-rolling lava erupted. Blazing, scarlet torrents of extreme heat surged and splashed all around at a rapid pace. Alex flitted across in a flash, concealing himself entirely in the shadows of one of the towers. He narrowed his eyes to scan the surroundings, turned around, and extended his arm, where a black card flickered in his hand and transformed into a pitch-black sword the very next second. He stooped over, held his breath, and quietly listened to the activities around him.

Based on his investigation earlier, the five steel towers basically served as military towers. As long as he could take them down, the others could pass through the area and enter the door safely. The mission that he gave the others was to take down the functions of the steel towers. If it weren't for the existence of that mysterious, shadowy creature at the bottom of the lava lake, he wouldn't mind crushing his way through. But now… In order to not alert the enemy, he could only deploy another strategy.

Fortunately, based on the situation he observed before, there were groups of five heavily-armored human soldiers. Security was tight in this area. But luckily, Alex had his way around them.

Stomp… Stomp… Stomp…

Rasps of clashing, heavy steel armor resounded. He squinted at the scene and clutched the sword hilt. He was completely hidden in the shadow, waiting silently for the opportune timing to strike. Shortly after, a patrol team marched past him. The soldiers inspected the area, failing to notice the enemy lurking in the shadows beside them. After scanning the area for a few moments, they turned around and headed into another tunnel.

It was at that moment Alex struck.

The instant the soldiers turned around, Alex pounced. The sword in his hand metamorphosed into a dark radiance as he darted ahead. In a dazzling flash, the soldier at the rear was slashed into half like butter. Alex's sword trembled abruptly as black flames erupted inside-out from the blade. He turned around, withdrew his sword, and dashed forward again.

The next soldier ahead turned around subconsciously after hearing some strange movements. But he had only turned halfway before the razor-sharp blade penetrated his neck. Then, black flames exploded to devour that unfortunate soldier. He continued his attack, positioning his sword in a slanted stance and slashing it downward in a straight line. This series of movements was so quick that it only lasted less than five seconds—from when he launched his attack to puncturing the third soldier's chest.

At that moment, the two soldiers at the front seemed to realize that something was wrong. One of them lifted his gun and pointed to the rear. But as soon as he turned around, he witnessed a flash of dark radiance and felt a chilly sensation on his neck. Then, he stopped breathing.

"…!"

Meanwhile, the soldier at the front turned around. After witnessing Alex's presence, he widened his eyes and was about to scream, when suddenly, he swung his right arm forward.

Kacha.

The razor-sharp blade grew in length, metamorphosing into a long whip that wrapped around the soldier's neck and stifled the scream that almost escaped him. Then, the crimson blade spun abruptly, severing the unfortunate soldier's head and sending it skyward before landing on the ground.

"Phew…"

At that moment, Alex heaved a sigh of relief. He swept a glance to the surroundings keenly before lifting the longsword in his right hand and slashing it downward. Savage black flames erupted from the blade in this move, shrouding the lifeless corpses on the floor instantly. In just a dozen seconds, the scattered corpses and filthy blood were swallowed, leaving nothing behind. He returned to the shadows and continued to sneak his way in.

After taking down three teams continuously, Alex finally eliminated all patrols safeguarding the first tower. But he didn't let his guard down just yet as he didn't know how exactly the patrols communicated and rotated shifts. If he had annihilated the patrols that were taking over the current shift, perhaps the patrols might feel suspicious after some time. The most important thing now was to seize the timing. After taking down the three patrol forces and ensuring that no one discovered his presence, he entered the tower.

The inside of the steel tower was dimly-lit. Perhaps due to the lack of electricity, not all the lamps were lit up; some of them emanated a fuzzy radiance along the walls at intervals. But this was to Alex's advantage. He concealed himself in the shadows and killed his way through without being discovered.

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

As soon as alex6 wiped out the soldiers ahead and was about to advance, he suddenly heard a series of hurried footsteps. He turned around, leaned to the side quickly, and fused into the wall, disappearing from sight. Almost simultaneously, a team of heavily-armed soldiers arrived at the scene. Their captain was a young man donned in a black uniform. He swept a glance at the surroundings with an ice-cold expression and let out a snort.

"What exactly is going on? Where are the guards? Why are they missing?"

"Maybe they went to patrol the place. After all, it's time for the next shift…"

"That bunch of useless trash makes my head hurt! Why are they running around all over the place at such a time?!"

Upon hearing his subordinate's response, the captain grunted. Then, he turned around, gazed at his subordinate, and commanded with a long face.

"Get ready. We're going to start the fusion soon. Bring all experimental subjects to Experimental Lab One and give them an injection… By the way, how is Experimental Subject Three doing?"

Upon hearing his question, a man who wore a white coat, like a researcher's, replied immediately.

"Reporting, Sir. The condition of Experimental Subject Three remains the same. We've increased the dosage, but there are still no effects after injecting it into her body. Frankly, if it weren't for the apparatus indicating that everything is normal with her body, we would have believed that she is dead."

"Check her conditions right away. We need to turn her into a Chaos being before the Saint awakens! Remember, if we can't do it, the lord wrath will burn us all into ashes! Hurry up! Don't waste anymore time! Understand, you fools?!"

"Yes, Sir!"

Everyone nodded at his command before turning around to leave. But at the same time, a barrier of black flames erupted, trapping them inside, like a cage. It happened so quickly that some of them didn't detect its presence immediately and were instantly swallowed by the black flames and vanished into nothingness before letting out a shriek. The sudden emergence of the flames stunned the rest. They gripped their weapons and stepped back instinctively. At the same time, a dozen flame tentacles drilled out of the ground suddenly and bound them firmly. The whistling blade airflows extinguished the weak, dancing flames of the lamps. In an instant, there was nothing else apart from darkness.

After a few moments, the darkness dissipated.

Alex emerged from the shadows. Around his feet were corpses, while the black flames gradually expanded to the surroundings, devouring and shredding the remains into bits. The young captain earlier was the only one who survived and escaped the tragedy. But now, his back was against the wall as he stared palely at the razor-sharp blade Alex was pressing against his throat. A slightest movement and his head would be severed right off.

"W-Who are you?"

Widening his eyes, the man gazed at Alex in terror. He couldn't imagine how someone was able to sneak into this heavily-guarded tower. Not only that, but he also annihilated the guards effortlessly.

How can he be capable of easily doing that? What kind of sick joke is this?

"I seem to have heard something interesting."

Facing his question, Alex didn't answer. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the man instead. The corners of his lips perked up into a strange smile.

"Would you mind telling me more about the situation of this place?"

Under the threat of death, the young captain gave in immediately and confessed everything to Alex.
