The Fourth Disaster: People become gods through high martial arts and gaming

Chapter 182 A Shocking Night

"What did you say? The people from Obsidian Martial Arts School attacked?"

"Are you sure you read that correctly?"

When Eugene heard his subordinate's report, he was stunned. He felt that his subordinate was joking.

He only killed six ordinary members of the Obsidian Martial Arts School; how could the Obsidian Martial Arts School possibly come knocking on their door directly?

You should know that their Double Head Gang is not comparable to the declining Iron Heart Gang.

The gang alone has more than 8,000 members, and the number of quasi-martial artists is over 1,000, including three quasi-martial artists who have reached the microscopic level.

Although his father, Nison Walker, was the only martial artist in the entire gang, he was a genuine mid-level martial artist. In terms of power ranking within the Red Moon Merchant Guild, he was much higher than the Iron Heart Gang, ranking among the top 300. He possessed a considerable number of B2-level battle armors, making him far superior to the Iron Heart Gang.

Now that Obsidian Martial Arts School is at war with the four major powers, how could it possibly provoke the Twin Heads Gang again?

"Young Master, it's true. They sent over a hundred men who charged directly at our current base. The people below are resisting them," reported a subordinate who was only a mid-level apprentice.

"A mere hundred-odd people dare to attack our Twin Heads Gang? Are you sure you're not mistaken? Not a thousand?" Eugene felt that his subordinates were playing him for a fool.

More than a hundred people came to the Twin Heads Gang's headquarters; it was no different from sending them to their deaths. Even if the Obsidian Martial Arts School wanted to show off, they wouldn't send only such a small number of people.

Not to mention, how could such a small group of people possibly make such a commotion?

You should know that the training room he was in was on the second basement level of the main camp. If no one had rushed into the building, there would have been no way to make such a commotion.

To get inside the building, there are layers of guards outside, numbering over a thousand, and four extreme quasi-martial artists wearing B2-level armor are stationed at the first-floor entrance. Even a B2-level martial artist would find it impossible to break in.

"Young Master, it's true." The subordinate, who was only a mid-level apprentice, said with some fear, "Although the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy on the other side has fewer people, they have six martial arts experts. They are wearing B1-level battle armor, and they can basically take down those quasi-martial artists wearing A6-level battle armor in one hit. Only the four elders wearing B2-level battle armor can barely put up a fight..."

"Six martial artists? How is that possible?!" Eugene was stunned. "Has the Obsidian Martial Arts School gone mad? I only killed six of their henchmen. Do they really need to go all out with the Twin Heads Gang?!"

Becoming a martial artist is the dream of countless aspiring martial artists in the suburbs. Even with the full support of the resources of the suburban gangs, and after learning the intermediate martial artist training method, he only has a 60-70% chance of becoming a martial artist.

Most of the major forces in the suburbs do not have martial artists in charge. Any suburban force with a martial artist in charge can easily rank in the middle level. If there are two martial artists in charge, they can generally rank in the upper level.

As for the Iron Heart Gang being only at a mid-level, it's entirely because the Iron Heart Gang had been at odds with an upper-level force for many years, depleting a large amount of its fighting force. Otherwise, the Iron Heart Gang's overall strength wouldn't be much weaker than the Phosphorus Fire Gang's.

The major powers in the suburbs are now wary of the Obsidian Martial Arts School because of the battle with the Iron Heart Gang. The Obsidian Martial Arts School has four martial artists on the surface, plus the school master Lin Qi's exceptional potential.

As long as Lin Qi and the other three martial artists do not perish, the Obsidian Martial Arts School is destined to become a dominant force in the suburbs, not much less powerful than the Bei'ao Family.

Now, the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy has sent a total of six martial artists over, which is simply a joke.

"Young Master, what do we do now? Those six martial artists are already on their way, and the four elders won't be able to hold out for long." The intermediate apprentice's subordinate asked anxiously.

The threat posed by six novice warriors wearing B1-level armor acting together is far more than just the sum of its parts.

That's no longer something an ordinary force can contend with, especially in the city. Without one or two thousand fully armed elite troops, it would be impossible to wipe them out.

If it were to actually kill someone from some powerful faction, aside from the top ten gangs and families in the suburbs, probably no other gang or family could stop them.

"Trying to kill me won't be that easy." Although Eugene was somewhat flustered, he calmly ordered, "Immediately notify all the elders in the vicinity to return to the camp for reinforcements. Everyone else at the camp, fight a flanking maneuver and stall for time until the four honorary elders return, then we'll surround them together!"

While six martial artists are indeed formidable, the Twin-Headed Gang is not without the ability to cope. If it comes to a war of attrition, the Twin-Headed Gang could easily wear down not only six martial artists, but even sixteen.

With martial artists in the city forbidden from fighting each other, the greatest threat to them is decapitation strikes, which involve killing key figures from opposing forces.

He had just killed six people from the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, and the Academy immediately sent six more martial artists to attack him, clearly intending to eliminate him and demonstrate their power to the major forces in the city. All he could do was wait for the four honorary elders who had reached the Subtle Realm to return.

The four honorary elders who had reached the realm of subtlety were only at the limit of quasi-martial artists, but even their fathers had to give them face because, when the four of them were wearing B2-level armor, their strength was not much less than that of a mid-level martial artist wearing B2-level armor.

With four people present, blocking the attack from the Obsidian Martial Arts School shouldn't be a big problem.

The Twin Heads Building is located in the lobby of a super-large shopping mall.

Large numbers of two-headed lizardmen, wielding A6-level or higher composite bows, continuously harassed Luo Wushang and her six companions who had already stormed into the building with ranged attacks, putting them under considerable pressure.

These lizardmen don't seem to be human; they can actually climb rocks at will. Combined with the mall-style design inside the building, it's practically the perfect battlefield for the lizardmen. They can easily move and shoot on the walls. Since they can't fly, killing each lizardman takes a lot of effort.

In particular, the arrows fired by these lizardmen were mixed with arrows of B2 grade or higher. Even if they were only shot with the strength of a martial artist or below, they could easily damage B1 grade armor. Under the rain of arrows, it became much more difficult to kill a near-martial artist wearing B2 grade armor.

"As expected of a hidden storyline, this strategy is exceptionally difficult." After repelling a near-martial arts expert wearing B2-level armor with a single Starfire attack, Fang Zhen couldn't help but smile wryly as he watched arrows raining down from all directions.

They thought that the six warriors, wearing B1-level armor, could wreak havoc in the team dungeon, but they didn't expect that the difficulty of conquering the Twin-Headed Gang was incomparable to that of the Iron Heart Gang.

With the boost from their B1-level armor, their power is over two thousand with a single strike, and can exceed five or six thousand when using martial arts techniques. However, the lizardmen wearing B2-level armor are no pushovers either.

Without using the electromagnetic cannon, they could only knock back and injure the lizardmen. Every time they tried to finish them off, a large number of arrows would come flying at them, making it impossible to kill these lizardmen wearing B2-level armor in a short time.

Whenever they tried to fire an arrow with all their might, the lizardmen would run far away, especially those wearing B2-level armor, who would instantly run more than fifty meters away, circling the wall in an S-shape. With the electromagnetic cannons being manually wielded, their accuracy was insufficient, making it difficult to hit them.

The tactics of the Twin-Headed Gang are completely different from those of the Iron Heart Gang. If the Iron Heart Gang takes the initiative to attack, then the Twin-Headed Gang plays the game of hit-and-run, focusing on attrition.

Throughout the entire battlefield, Ye Qinglu was the one who fought most smoothly. He wielded twelve B2-level longswords and made full use of his agility. Even though the lizardmen could climb high and move low, they were just moving targets in front of the B2-level longswords and could be harvested at will.

A well-timed, opportune lightning strike can take down a lizardman wearing B2-level armor.

The other five of them combined couldn't kill as many as Ye Qinglu alone.

"It doesn't matter, our goal is to stall for time anyway." Luo Wushang didn't care, and even used the lizardmen to practice her Ghost Light Step, chasing after the lizardmen crawling on the walls.

“Indeed.” Fang Zhen nodded and relaxed, then began to learn from Luo Wushang and practice the Reverse Star Step.

After becoming martial artists, they now spend most of their time improving their martial arts skills to reach the seventh level. However, at the beginner level, each use of these skills has significant side effects, causing stinging pain all over the body and even temporary paralysis in certain parts of the body, making them unsuitable for combat between martial artists.

But now, facing a bunch of monsters below the level of martial artists, there's no such concern. With their extraordinary reaction speed, these monsters' attacks aren't very threatening, making it perfect for practical martial arts training and improving their proficiency.

"How strange, weren't these martial artists from the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy here to find me?" Eugene, lying underground, looked at the surveillance footage on the monitor, watching Luo Wushang and her six companions killing and destroying everything in sight, his heart filled with doubt.

He originally thought that Obsidian Martial Arts School was coming for him, but after Luo Wushang and the other six rushed into the building, they did not rush downstairs immediately. Instead, they killed members of the Twin-Headed Gang all over the first floor, which really made him wonder what the people from Obsidian Martial Arts School were thinking.

For six martial artists to want to wipe out the several thousand members of the Twin Heads Gang is simply a pipe dream.

Inside the Twin-Headed Gang building, more than twenty aspiring martial artists, including Yi Ye Fuyun, fought their way to the rooftop. Although they encountered many Twin-Headed Gang experts along the way, there were far fewer of them compared to the lobby on the first floor.

This led them directly to Nissen Walker, who had been resting on the top floor of the building.

Meanwhile, Nissen Walker was still in a daze, looking at Yi Ye Fuyun and the others who rushed in, his heart filled with confusion and doubt, not understanding what was wrong with the Obsidian Martial Arts School.

His son had only killed six ordinary henchmen of the Obsidian Martial Arts School. If the Obsidian Martial Arts School wanted to explain, he was willing to provide one. He even had a video of the battle with Eugene prepared.

But now the Obsidian Martial Arts School has come knocking on our door, bringing six beginner-level martial artists with them—they've gone mad!
