Chapter 23 Annahilation
But as soon as he engaged the black-robed attackers, his confidence faltered. He had seriously miscalculated; there were more than one late-stage warrior. There were at least more than 3, and their formation was so weird that all of them acted as a whole.
Their movement was very calculated and precise. And their formation was strange, moving as one, each warrior covering the other\'s blind spots with calculated precision. No matter how hard Tang Guang attacked, they blocked him, deflecting his blows with ease.
"Who are you? Why did you attack our Anyu Gang?"
He questioned, but he received no answer. He was instead met with a sword that attacked him directly in the neck. He narrowly dodged it and backed up.
"Who really are you?" he shouted again, frustration in his voice.
"Yu Jian, target the weakest one!"
Yu Jian, hearing this, rushed towards John along with Tan Guan. After fighting for some time, they already recognize the weakest link in the opponent.
They both attacked John, ready to seriously injure one and destroy the opponent formation.
John who watched all this stood firm. He didn\'t dodge the attack and directly met with it. He recognized that these two were the strongest ones. On his side was Ruben, who was already an apprentice knight.
John directly met with Punch of Yu Jian, just as he was about to be punched. A fast sword sliced from Ruben shot towards Yu Jian.
Yu Jian hurriedly dodged it but still was injured, and blood splattered everywhere. His left hand had a deep cut, with blood flowing continuously. If he is not treated quickly, he will soon die of blood loss.
"What another Late Stage Warrior? How could there be so many?" Yu Jian shouted with horror.
"You must be from one of the two major families. Only those families have such strong strength."
He shouted, but his words were not taken seriously by Ruben. He chased after Yu Jian; he will kill this injured man quickly. John and another one also quickly followed, ready to surround Yu Jian from three directions.
Tan Guang was also alone, engaged by another apprentice knight. He watched Yu Jian being surrounded and getting more and more injured.
"Die, die!" Tang Guang screamed, fighting with a frantic desperation.
"Look around you; now you are the only uninjured one." The knight who was fighting Tan Guang taunted
Tan Guang\'s face sank hearing this and turned to look around. Almost all of the people were injured and dying.
\'Opportunity\' the apprentice knight sliced his knife at the neck of Tan Guang.
Tan Guang, who seemed oblivious to all of this, suddenly caught the sword with his hand. Blood trickled down Tan Guang\'s arm as he gripped the sword, his face twisted with fury.
He then roared and directly punched squarely in the head of the apprentice knight. The Apprentice Knight fell to the ground due to the impact of the punch. It was a solid, strong punch in the head by the strength of a 9th-level warrior.
The apprentice knight groaned, struggling to move after the blow.
"Hmph! Trying to play such a childish trick on me," Tang Guang spat. He was about to stomp the apprentice knight when he was met with two other knives.
"This really is trouble." He looked at the fallen body of the apprentice knight with some regrets; he lost the best chance to kill the opponent.
The fight raged on for several more minutes, but the sounds of battle began to fade. Almost all the Anyu Gang members were dead.
The only one standing was Tan Guang. He was seriously injured, with one of his hands cut off.
"I can\'t... stand this anymore..." Tang Guang gasped, his vision blurring.
He backed away quickly and took out a small pouch from his body with trembling hands. Inside it was a lot of powder. He began pouring it into his mouth. The more he poured, the redder his body became.
His body turned a deep crimson, the powder surging through his veins, pushing him far beyond his limits.
"Now... you all... will die!" Tan Guang shouted difficultly and rushed forward. He has just consumed a lot of blood boiling powder. He has no chance of surviving now; even if he miraculously survives, he will be a cripple. His only intention now was to at least kill one of the attackers.
"Retreat," Arthur commanded, and they began retreating in group. This guy has just consumed a lot of unknown drugs.
"Retreat; look at his body; it will not last for long. Fighting now would be foolish."
Tan Guang tried to catch up to them and fight them, but they were running around faster and faster.
"Ahhhh! Don\'t run fight with me," Tan Guang shouted in desperation before he collapsed to the ground.
Arthur and others watched from a distance. They didn\'t walk near Tan Guang to check on him.
A few moments later, Tan Guang looked up at them with a miserable smile and finally collapsed. His body twitched once before going still.
"I knew it; he was faking it."
"Yeah, if we went to check on him. He would definitely throw the final punch, burning his remaining life away."
"Good thing we\'re taught never to lower our guard, even when the enemy looks dead."
"Jaron, are you ok? You were punched directly in the head."
"I\'m fine, just a little lightheaded," Jaron replied with his hand in his head.
"Don\'t try to deceive the enemy with these kinds of low-level tricks. You were lucky that we were around and stopped that guy from further attacking."
As they were talking, they began harvesting the lives of those who were injured and groaning on the ground. There were also many who were faking their deaths. No was left alive.
However, Luis was not present here. He was deeper inside the headquarters, searching everywhere for hidden people and killing them. Xiao Wei was behind him gathering all the innocent captured people and maids.
\'This is a perfect place for my new base,\' Luis thought as he roamed around the place.

[I wanted to end this fight with Anyu Gang in 2 chapters, but as I wrote it became more and more. Is it interesting for you guys? I tried gang fight instead of just protagonist shining alone.]
