Chapter 197 Devilish Muscle Man

If Michael and the Muscle Man represent a clash of strength, then Selena's battle with the Fat Brothers is a prime example of the bizarre.

Selena's figure moved like a ghost, rapidly circling the mountain of flesh. Her longsword transformed into streaks of silver lightning, precisely slashing at the fat man's massive body.

However, the expected sensation of a sharp blade cutting into flesh did not come!

Where the sword touched, the layers of glistening fat displayed astonishing resilience, accompanied by a sluggish feeling similar to cutting through beef tendon.

Most attacks only leave a shallow scar, and cannot even completely cut the skin!

The fat man didn't care at all, and even let out a loud, strange laugh.

Whenever Selena got close, he would brace himself against the blade, and with a gust of wind, his fan-like hand would suddenly strike!

Selena was completely unprepared for her opponent's strategy of trading injury for life. Caught off guard, the tip of her sword left a useless white mark on his ribs, while the huge hand was already slamming down in front of him.

She quickly spun around and retreated, but the edge of the palm strike still grazed her shoulder.

"Bang!"

Selena felt an irresistible force, as if she had been grazed by the side of a speeding car, and was thrown backward uncontrollably.

The vampire's agility forced her to adjust her posture mid-air, eventually sliding several meters to her knees before regaining her balance, a burning pain shooting through her shoulder blade.

If close combat doesn't work, then try something else!

The next moment, without hesitation, she transferred the longsword to her left hand, and her right hand flashed to her waist, drawing the large-caliber Browning pistol!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The muzzle flash flickered in the dim hall as the bullet accurately struck the fatty body. This time, the bullet successfully penetrated the thick layer of fat.

But all they did was crawl inside!

Selena's sharp eyesight allowed her to clearly see that the bright yellow bullets had only penetrated his skin, and the tails of the bullets could be seen through the bullet holes!

The fat on the fat man's body formed a sturdy structure like armor, stubbornly resisting all physical attacks.

The magazine was emptied quickly, making a "click" sound.

The fat man was clearly enraged by the continuous attacks. He let out a deafening roar, like a mad bull, lowered his head, and charged fiercely at Selena!

Its massive body unleashed an astonishing speed disproportionate to its size, causing the ground to tremble.

Selena's expression changed, and she quickly leaped high into the air!

"Boom!—BOOM!!"

The fat man couldn't stop in time and crashed heavily into a thick stone pillar supporting the hall.

The immense impact instantly caused cracks to spread across the surface of the stone pillar, and the entire pillar shook violently, scattering countless dust and debris.

After missing his first attack, the fat man didn't stop and turned around to charge again!

Selena completely abandoned close-quarters combat. She used her speed to dodge attacks and quickly changed magazines while continuing to fire her pistol.

The bullets thudded into the fat man's body, only further fueling his rage.

As she leaped up to dodge once more, Selena's gaze swept across the entire arena. After landing, she quickly rushed over, flicked her toes, and sent the shotgun left behind by the Black Mamba flying into the air, catching it firmly in her hand!

Turn around, load the gun, aim, and pull the trigger!

The movements were executed in one smooth motion, as if they had been rehearsed hundreds of times!

The fat man, who had just turned around, saw the dark muzzle of a gun pointed at him. He instinctively turned back—

"boom!!"

A deafening roar echoed throughout the hall! A barrage of lead bullets, like an angry swarm of bees, slammed solidly into the fat man's incredibly thick vest!

The immense kinetic energy caused him to stumble forward, his filthy robe riddled with holes, revealing his large back, which was also densely studded with lead bullets!

Even a shotgun couldn't penetrate it!

But this heavy blow clearly brought even greater pain and brought his anger to its peak!

"Brother, it hurts so much!"

The eerie shout came from the fat man's mouth, sounding both incredibly strange and comical!

Before Selena could figure out what he meant, the fat man suddenly reached out with both hands, grabbed his already tattered robe, and ripped it off with all his might!

"Rip—!"

The sound of the cloth tearing was extremely jarring. His already tattered robe was split in two, revealing the fat man's slick, massive body, and—

In the center of his bulging, fat belly was a dwarf human body!

That was a horrible, deformed symbiote!

A humanoid figure, shriveled like a dried-up orange, with its head and part of its chest clearly protruding from the fat man's belly. Its sparse hair was wet and stuck to its scalp, and its wrinkled skin had an unhealthy grayish-yellow color.

His torso and upper limbs had completely merged with the fat man's belly, with only the extremities of his limbs and his shriveled head sticking out.

So this is the true face of the "Fat Brothers"!

The fat man is the younger brother, while the dwarf fused into his stomach is the older brother!

The wrinkled, fat brother suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes! There were no pupils inside, only a murky, deathly white!

His withered mouth suddenly opened, emitting a high-pitched shriek that was completely inhuman and extremely sharp!

"babble-!!!!!"

A sharp, high-frequency, terrifying mental scream, powerful enough to pierce eardrums, suddenly burst forth from Fat Brother's tiny, almost invisible mouth!

An invisible mental shockwave swept through the entire hall like a tsunami!

Michael froze abruptly, clutching his head and letting out a painful wolf howl as a powerful mental attack surged towards his relatively wild and simple consciousness!

Selena, who was moving at high speed, was struck on the head as if by an invisible hammer. She groaned, staggered, almost dropped her shotgun, and her face turned pale instantly. The severe headache made it difficult for her to concentrate!

This sudden psychological attack instantly reversed the course of the battle!

The muscular monster was completely unaffected; clearly, the headphones on his head played a crucial role.

Seeing that Michael and Selena were both suppressed by the psychic howl, he suddenly fixed his gaze on the little girl standing quietly on the sidelines, hugging a Frankenstein's monster doll—

He seemed to want to kill someone first to establish a deterrent effect, or to vent his bloody rage!

The monstrous body of the demon muscleman charged toward Alessa like a tank. His intact left hand, fingers outstretched, brought with it a terrifying force capable of flattening steel, and slammed down toward Alessa's head! He intended to smash this seemingly weakest target into a pulp with a single slap!

Faced with this sudden and deadly attack, Alessa simply raised her head, her grey-blue eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.

She neither dodged nor blocked, but simply raised her small, white fist, knuckles facing upwards, towards the descending giant palm.

The next moment—

Snap!

A sharp, teeth-grinding sound of bone cracking rang out!

The scene seemed to freeze!

The unstoppable giant hand of the Demon Muscle Man struck Alessa's small fist as if it had hit an indestructible solid steel pillar!

The enormous impact caused the stone slab beneath Aresa's feet to crack and sink, her body shrunk slightly, and her legs and below disappeared into the rubble, but her raised fists and arms remained completely still!

And the devilish muscleman's hand—

But it flipped upwards at an extremely bizarre angle!

The bones in his hand were shattered, his wrist bones were broken and protruding from his skin, and his five fingers were twisted into strange shapes. His entire hand was completely ruined in an instant!

"Ughh ...

The excruciating pain took half a second to reach the Demon Muscle Man's brain. He let out a heart-wrenching scream, staggering backward while clutching his crippled hand, which felt like it had been hit head-on by a battering ram. His face was filled with extreme pain and disbelief!

He wanted to pick the easy target, but he never expected to pick up a steel bullet instead!

Just as the muscular demon opened its mouth and screamed in agony, Alessa moved!

Her small body rose from the rubble with such speed that she left only a blur!

A military-green, egg-shaped grenade appeared in her hand without her noticing, and she deftly flicked the safety pin with her thumb.

Before the muscular man's mouth, which was agape to its limit from the excruciating pain, Alessa precisely shoved the grenade, with its pin removed, deep into his throat!

The muscular man's pupils constricted sharply! His survival instinct made him want to vomit it out immediately!

But at that moment, Aresa's body somersaulted, and her slender legs, clad in lambskin boots, kicked him hard in the jaw from below!

"Bang!"

The upper and lower jaws were struck with tremendous force and slammed together violently! You could even hear the sound of teeth shattering!

The grenade was completely stuck deep in his throat!

Alessa used the force to float away lightly, and even slid backward a short distance after landing, finally standing up straight next to the Chinese man.

Time seemed to slow down.

The horrific screams of the demonic muscleman abruptly ceased, his eyes bulging almost out of their sockets, filled with utter terror and despair. Then, BOOM!!!

A muffled explosion suddenly erupted from his mouth and chest!

His entire head and upper body exploded!

Red and white matter and broken bones flew everywhere!

The massive body, now missing its upper body, convulsed violently before crashing backward, kicking up a cloud of dust.
