Chapter 93

In the lower levels of Black City, Rat and Big Head, along with a few close subordinates, were fighting a retreating battle. The four leaders of the Green Snake Gang, however, were leading their elite forces in a relentless pursuit. The two sides had met by chance and naturally engaged in battle. Rat and Big Head's side was outnumbered and, despite their desperate resistance, they were at a disadvantage.

Rat, though small and thin, standing only 1.5 meters tall and weighing no more than 70 kilograms, was agile and fierce. He darted through the crowd like a shadow, living up to his name as others struggled to hit him, while he left a trail of chaos in his wake.

His arms were equipped with mechanical weapons. When he clenched his fists, three half-meter-long steel forks would shoot out from the mechanical devices on his forearms, making him particularly effective in the chaos of battle.

He burst through the melee like a gust of wind, his beady eyes fixed on Black Snake in the crowd.

Black Snake was a towering figure, standing nearly two meters tall, making him stand out in the crowd. At that moment, he was holding one of Rat's subordinates by the neck, lifting him into the air with his immense strength, as if displaying him to the crowd, and then he snapped the man's neck with a single hand!

"Ha ha ha..." Black Snake bared his gleaming white teeth in a triumphant sneer. Suddenly, he sensed a strong sense of danger and, in a panic, he used the corpse he was holding to shield himself.

With a "swoosh," the corpse was pierced through by three steel forks, which continued to thrust towards Black Snake's chest after piercing the body!

Black Snake quickly pulled his stomach in, but it was too late. The steel forks had already pierced his abdomen.

"Damn!" Black Snake cursed in pain, his face pale and sweat pouring down.

But Black Snake was a fierce fighter. He pulled the steel forks out of his abdomen and then grabbed them with both hands, twisting them with all his might.

There was a "crack" as the bones in Rat's arms were snapped!

Rat gritted his teeth, severed his own arm with a swift strike, and then quickly turned to circle behind Black Snake.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

The steel forks on Rat's remaining left arm rapidly stabbed into Black Snake's back, his speed reaching its peak, turning Black Snake's back into a sieve in an instant!

"Roar—"

Black Snake let out a piercing scream of pain. Though he was a powerhouse, he suddenly burst with a speed far beyond his usual, turning around and grabbing Rat tightly with both arms, squeezing him so hard that Rat's bones creaked.

Under normal circumstances, Black Snake could have strangled Rat to death, but with his severe injuries, the effort caused the numerous wounds on his back to bleed profusely, preventing him from using his full strength.

Rat was also seriously injured, and his strength lay in speed, which made it impossible for him to break free from Black Snake's grip.

Flower Snake saw an opportunity and charged over, wielding a short dagger in each hand, one held normally and the other in reverse. He aimed to cross the daggers and sever Rat's throat.

At that moment, he suddenly heard a whistling sound from behind. Startled, Flower Snake turned his head and saw a large bald head hurtling towards him like a cannonball.

It was Big Head!

Big Head's special skill was the "Iron Head Technique." While fighting White Snake, he noticed Rat's life was in danger and decided to risk everything to save him.

He flew through the air, parallel to the ground, like an arrow, with his bald head as the arrowhead. If he hit someone with this move, it would be enough to knock down a wall, let alone a person.

Flower Snake could kill Rat with a cross of his daggers, but he would inevitably be hit by Big Head. This one-for-one trade was not something Flower Snake was willing to do, so he quickly dodged.

By dodging, if Big Head continued his original trajectory, he would have killed Rat.

Big Head gritted his teeth and forced a slight change in direction, shooting past Rat and Black Snake with a "whoosh."

"Boom—"

A unlucky man was hit in the stomach by Big Head and was sent flying into the wall, his torso bones shattered, and even a large hole was punched through the wall, embedding his buttocks in it.

"Phew..." Rat, who was being strangled by Black Snake, was almost suffocating, his eyes rolling back. Suddenly, he saw a flash of cold light slicing towards him!

Rat instinctively ducked, and the cold light passed over his head, seemingly not targeting him.

Black Snake, who was tightly hugging him, stiffened, and Rat felt the strong arms loosen. Blood rained down on him.

Rat quickly broke free from Black Snake's grip, looked gratefully at the person who saved him, and recognized Wang Ge, whom he had met earlier that night.

Wang Ge arrived just in time, and his ring-blade took the opportunity to behead Black Snake. It was also because Black Snake was tall and Rat was short that this move succeeded in decapitating Black Snake!

"Great job, Wang Ge!" Big Head, who was still fighting White Snake, praised Wang Ge. Wang Ge was now his subordinate, and he felt very proud that Wang Ge had killed Black Snake.

"Swish—"

Suddenly, a black shadow shot through the air like lightning. Wang Ge swung his ring-blade back, striking the shadow with precision. However, to everyone's surprise, the shadow could bend!

After being struck, it used Wang Ge's ring-blade as a pivot, bending around and slapping Wang Ge in the face! Even though Wang Ge quickly turned his head, he still lost a piece of flesh, leaving half his face bloody and mangled!

Wang Ge was shocked; this was a rare soft whip weapon!

He quickly reacted, wrapping his ring-blade around the soft whip, preventing it from being retracted.

"Damn it!" Green Snake tried to pull back his "Dragon Skin Whip," but it was firmly wrapped and couldn't be retrieved. What made him even more frustrated was that Wang Ge's strength seemed to be no less than his own.

With a light press of his thumb on the handle of the Dragon Skin Whip, there was a "click," and the half-moon steel blades on the surface, resembling dragon scales, stood up, creating space that the ring-blade couldn't wrap around.

Green Snake took the opportunity to swing the Dragon Skin Whip fiercely, the sharp blades flashing in the air, avoiding the ring-blade and counterattacking Wang Ge.

Wang Ge, now prepared, rolled forward without regard for his dignity, rolling directly to Green Snake's feet and slashing at his legs with the ring-blade as he got up.

Green Snake quickly jumped up, and before he could retract the Dragon Skin Whip, Wang Ge, like a leech, followed up with another slash...

White Snake and Big Head were locked in battle, Wang Ge and Green Snake were fighting, and Flower Snake, always looking for an easy target, chose the one-armed Rat as his opponent.

Rat was originally stronger than Flower Snake, but with one arm gone, he was at a disadvantage. Flower Snake was fighting with great confidence, his two daggers moving like butterflies around Rat, cutting him with numerous shallow wounds. Although not fatal, the many wounds caused a lot of blood loss, making Rat's face increasingly pale and his speed slower...

What was even more disadvantageous for them was that all of Rat and Big Head's subordinates were dead. Now, besides Wang Ge, only Blade was still fighting.

Green Snake's chest was crisscrossed with several deep cuts, and the blood loss made his face pale. However, he was gradually becoming more relaxed in Wang Ge's relentless attacks.

It turned out that Wang Ge had only three powerful moves... Green Snake calmed down. Although he had successfully avoided Wang Ge's powerful downward and horizontal slashes, he had suffered greatly from the third move, "Falling Flowers."

Green Snake thought he had made a mistake, but then realized that Wang Ge only had these three powerful moves. The rest of the time, he was just hacking wildly. Once Green Snake found his rhythm, he could match Wang Ge.

Green Snake was a Level 12 life form. If he hadn't reserved his life gate opening for a critical moment and if he hadn't encountered such an unconventional fighting style, he wouldn't have been so embarrassed by Wang Ge.

However, it was strange that even though he thought he had figured out the pattern of Wang Ge's three moves, he couldn't find a way to counter them.

Moreover, Wang Ge was too smart, always fighting close to Green Snake, preventing him from using the full power of the Dragon Skin Whip. This made Green Snake extremely frustrated, as he was a higher life form and had better weapons, yet he couldn't defeat Wang Ge.

Wang Ge could temporarily hold off Green Snake, and Big Head was struggling to hold his own against White Snake, but Rat was the first to give in. He was already covered in blood, unable to avoid Flower Snake's attacks. Flower Snake, however, was not in a hurry, his face twisted with a perverse grin, slicing Rat one cut at a time, seemingly deriving great pleasure from it.

This can't go on, we're bound to lose... Wang Ge was worried as he fought. Where is Ox? If Ox were here, we wouldn't be struggling so much!

As if on cue, Ox arrived just as Wang Ge was thinking about him.

"Boom—"

The ground suddenly cracked and collapsed, the room shaking violently as if in an earthquake. Amid the smoke and dust, a massive metal monster emerged, its fearsome form revealed.

A five-meter-tall steel giant, resembling a Decepticon from the late 20th century's "Transformers," stood up fully, the large chunks of concrete and debris falling off its massive body like dust. Each movement made the entire world tremble.

"Boom—"

The steel giant's tire-sized iron fist slammed towards Flower Snake, who was torturing Rat!

"Mech?" Flower Snake was taken aback. He quickly dodged, and the steel giant's fist missed him but shattered the wall behind him.

Flower Snake thought he had successfully dodged, but a fist-sized piece of debris flew towards his head at high speed, dazing him and nearly knocking him to the ground.
