Chapter 121 Cause and Effect

Nagokin, accompanied by dozens of Godora warriors, arrived in front of a skyscraper in City Four in a mobile aircraft.

Owen's main body maintained contact with them, observing the Dark Star personnel through the senses of his clones and then providing them with clues.

Only after dealing with Dark Star's pursuing forces and confirming there is no danger will his true form appear.

Now, based on Owen's intelligence, Nagokin and his group have arrived at this location.

"The enemy's main force is inside. We'll destroy their base first, then deal with the Dark Star members operating outside!"

"Now, follow me on the assault!"

As the aircraft slowly approached the target floor, Nagokin, with a serious expression, slowly clenched his fist, and a dense golden martial arts aura enveloped his entire arm like liquid.

boom!

He threw a punch, slamming it hard against the building's exterior wall.

In an instant, a visible circular shockwave spread outwards for hundreds of meters in all directions!

All the windows in the building shattered, and the force of the punch pierced through the floor where the Dark Star members were located, leaving a huge hole that was completely open from front to back.

With a single punch, Nagokin smashed through the building and led his men inside, immediately spotting the disoriented Dark Star members.

Dozens of Godora warriors quickly surrounded the group. Nagokin glanced at them and said in a deep voice, "I am Nagokin of the Godora War Bureau. You are surrounded. Lay down your weapons and surrender immediately. I will give you a fair trial."

However, facing their encirclement, the leader of the Dark Star members showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he revealed a ferocious grin, as if he had seen prey fall into a trap: "Hahaha, looks like we've caught a big fish! Nagokin, look around you, who do you think is the one surrounded?"

Before he finished speaking, two surging energy waves suddenly erupted, trapping Nagokin's troops in the middle.

Nagokin's expression changed drastically in an instant: "How can there be two Cataclysmic-level superhumans?"

According to the intelligence provided by Owen, the strongest Dark Stars chasing him were only B-level, so sending out an A-level superhuman was already more than enough for Godora.

Even though Dark Star has a hidden A-rank, with Nagokin involved, the two sides are still evenly matched.

However, what was unexpected was that Dark Star would go to such lengths, sending two Cataclysmic-level superhumans to hunt down Owen!

This is a trap set by Dark Star!

They not only want to hunt down Owen, but also take the opportunity to cause Godora to lose an A-class superhuman.

The Godora warriors present were drenched in cold sweat, and Nagokin's expression was equally grave.

He took a deep breath, his entire body enveloped in a powerful golden martial arts aura, and roared, "We may die today, but before that, let us fight!"

Inside the temporary stronghold of the Xuanji Mercenary Group, the members were doing their own thing: some were cultivating, some were drinking, some were watching TV programs, and some were playing cards in small groups.

Suddenly, a news report interrupted the television broadcast: "Norrios reports that ten minutes ago, the western edge of City 4 was vandalized, with three city blocks destroyed. The casualties and economic losses are currently being assessed."

"It is understood that the damage was caused by a fight between superhumans. Specific details are still under investigation. The Public Security Bureau has officially launched an investigation. The following is footage from the scene —"

The footage showed dozens of high-rise buildings collapsed into ruins, and the police drones were actively carrying out rescue operations. Bodies were being put into body bags and thrown aside, leaving the scene in a mess.

Han Xiao frowned: "With this level of destruction, it's likely that there are Calamity-level experts fighting each other—"

-

He suddenly thought of Nagokin for no apparent reason, and instinctively felt that this matter was related to the other party.

However, this has nothing to do with their Xuanji Mercenary Group. Since Nagojin doesn't want outsiders to interfere, Han Xiao naturally won't meddle.

Just then, Li Yuan walked out of a cultivation room, looked at the news on TV, and shook his head with a smile: "I have a feeling that we'll soon have something to do."

Before he could finish speaking, Han Xiao's communicator suddenly rang. When he opened it, he saw Nagokin's image appear on the screen.

He was covered in wounds and blood, panting heavily, and looked utterly wretched.

"Black Star, I need the help of the Xuanji Mercenary Group—"

Not long ago, Nagokin was ambushed by the Dark Star. Although he managed to break through after a bloody battle, all of his elite warriors were killed.

After escaping the encirclement, he immediately contacted headquarters to report what had happened.

The Godora War Bureau was shocked by this and ordered Nagokin to remain in place to protect himself, under no circumstances should he take any risks.

Nagokin was unwilling to give up. Giving up and retreating were not in his vocabulary, and he did not want his subordinates who had followed him for many years to die in vain. He wanted to continue the mission, stop the Starfall, and save Owen.

The problem is that even if Godora sends more people, it will take time, and there simply isn't enough time.

By the time reinforcements arrive, Owen will probably be long dead.

Just as Nagokin was struggling with this, he suddenly remembered Black Star, whom he had met briefly at the port.

After weighing the options, he finally decided to ask the Xuanji Mercenary Group for help.

After all, Norrios is quite remote, and there aren't many mercenaries operating in the vicinity. The Xuanji Mercenary Group is currently the strongest mercenary group in Norrios.

So, although he was a little embarrassed, he still contacted Black Star: "Black Star, I came to Norrios to meet a person who betrayed Dark Star, named Owen."

"Dark Star also dispatched troops to hunt him down. The enemy has two A-level superhumans. I was ambushed—"

Although he knew that revealing the fact that the other party had two A-level superhumans might deter the Xuanji Mercenary Group from helping him, Nagokin was always straightforward and would never deceive others. Even if he might be rejected because of this, he still told the truth.

After listening to Nagokin's account, Li Yuan suddenly asked, "Who are the two A-level superhumans on Dark Star?"

Nagokin paused, then shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Han Xiao rolled his eyes inwardly: "What abilities do they all have?"

Nagokin organized his thoughts and slowly said, "One of them can turn a human body into dust and manipulate large amounts of dust to condense into various weapons. If I don't use my energy for protection, he can slowly peel away my flesh and blood—"

"The other person can transform into a strange flying creature, about four or five meters tall, and seems to have the ability to control airflow."

"His speed is so fast that it is almost impossible to see with the naked eye. Moreover, he also creates wind pressure while flying. The faster he flies, the stronger the wind pressure he carries. Any place he passes through will be swept and crushed by the wind pressure, just like a wind pressure cannon."

Han Xiao's eyes flashed: "Ash, the master of carbon elements! The Wind Demon Anur!"

He immediately guessed who the two A-level superhumans in the gambling ring were based on his abilities.

Ash goes without saying, and Anur is a veteran powerhouse of Dark Star, Ash's teacher; both are quite formidable figures.

Han Xiao glanced at Li Yuan, who nodded slightly, and slowly said, "Fighting two A-level superhumans is far too dangerous—"

Upon hearing this, Nagokin's expression stiffened. Although he had expected this, he was still somewhat disappointed.

But then, Han Xiao suddenly changed the subject: "However, your mission isn't to kill them, right?"

"As long as Owen can leave Norrios safely, the matter will be resolved."

"The key now is to help Owen evade the Dark Star's pursuit before your Godora reinforcements arrive."

"In that case, we can help you."

Nagokin suddenly felt a sense of turning his life around, and his mood soared from rock bottom to new heights, filling him with immense joy.

Soon, he boarded a flying vehicle and reunited with the members of the Xuanji Mercenary Group.

The Xuanji Mercenary Group also extended a cooperation request to mercenaries near Norrios, but most of them were scared off upon hearing that the other party had two A-level superhumans.

Ultimately, only three mercenary groups actually chose to join, four of which had B-level superhumans, while the rest were C-level.

"The one who's most anxious right now isn't us, it's Dark Star."

"After Anur and Ash's ambush of you failed, they must have known that Godora would send new reinforcements, so they must capture Owen as soon as possible."

"Our task is to stop Dark Star's capture operation and safely send Owen away."

"But the problem is that his true form is hiding and doesn't dare to show itself, so we can't protect him."

Han Xiao looked at Nagokin, who nodded to indicate that he understood.

He then took out an encrypted communicator and contacted Owen.

Soon, Owen's voice came through the communicator, but there was no image: "Nagokin?"

Nagokin said in a deep voice, "Your intelligence is wrong. Dark Star sent two Cataclysmic-level experts. I was ambushed earlier."

"Now I've found help, and new reinforcements are on their way. You'll be safer under our protection."

However, Owen refused: "I don't need your protection. My body is safe, and no one can find me."

"I already have three clones captured. If I hadn't been cautious, they would probably have fallen into Dark Star's hands long ago."

"If you really want to help me, then protect my last clone; he's being hunted—"

After saying that, he hung up the call.

Li Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "Dark Star has already obtained three clones, but once a clone is too far from the main body, it will die instantly."

"Therefore, as long as Dark Star makes his clones move as far away as possible in three directions, he can find the boundaries of the area and locate the main body at the center point."

"Owen isn't stupid; he won't stay in the same place forever."

Han Xiao nodded: "It seems we'll have to take some risks."

boom!

A beam of light, as thick as a water bucket, pierced through the wall and blasted towards Owen.

A rippled magical shield appeared around him, blocking most of the damage before shattering, and he was thrown dozens of meters away by the aftershock.

"Damn it—" Owen gritted his teeth.

He was the last known clone. After sensing the approach of the Dark Star, he notified Nagokin and the others, but reinforcements have not yet arrived.

Tap tap tap —

Footsteps approached, and a dwarf wearing a light gray-iron mechanical combat suit and carrying an extremely large multi-functional gun slowly walked towards Owen.

His name is Sherman, and he is the main force in hunting down this Owen clone.

-

As Sherman slowly approached, Owen's expression turned grave, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart: "I only have three stress defense shields left. I can't run far. If reinforcements don't arrive soon, I'm doomed—"

Sherman approached expressionlessly, raising his gun with one hand and aiming it at Owen, who was slowly getting up: "Don't move unless you think your legs are too long."

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from mid-air, and Melos, wearing general-class armor, descended from the sky wielding his ship-slaying sword.

Without saying a word, Sherman raised his hand and fired a beam of light.

Melos raised his sword and slashed, shattering the bucket-thick beam of light in mid-air.

Then he suddenly slashed at Sherman's head with his sword, but Sherman had already begun to dodge backward.

Finally, this incredibly powerful strike landed on the ground, its silvery-white martial arts aura carving out a crack tens of meters long.

At the same time, many mercenaries appeared and protected Owen, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.

The next moment, the people from Dark Star also arrived, their numbers were comparable to the mercenaries, and even more elite.

Anur stepped forward from the crowd, his gaze sweeping to one side, and said in a deep voice, "Godora people, stop hiding, you can't escape my senses."

.

Upon hearing this, Nagokin no longer concealed himself and strode forward.

The two Class A superhumans were locked in a fierce battle, their auras incredibly tense.

Nagokin glanced at Anur and asked, "Where's the other one?"

Anuar did not answer. Ash, following his plan, split up with him to deal with the mercenaries who dared to interfere.

But now that all the mercenaries have come here, he's probably going to be disappointed.

However, it doesn't matter. It won't take long for Ash to return, and he can join forces with Ash to attack from both sides and cut off their retreat.

Thinking of this, Anur immediately activated his transformation without saying a word.

His body suddenly swelled up, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a strange-looking monster.

After transforming, he is four or five meters tall, with a triangular head and a streamlined beast-like body. His skin is rough and covered with small holes.

His arms and legs had now all turned into thick, powerful claws, and a long tail had grown from his back.

Eight strange, angular, and curved skeletal limbs grew from his back, looking somewhat like wings, but actually a special kind of organ.

These organs, like hollow jet pipes, extend from the ribs, allowing high-pressure airflow to circulate between the internal organs and the external environment, balancing internal and external pressure, and protecting the body at high speeds.

At the same time, a powerful golden martial arts aura once again surged from Nagokin's body.

The battle is about to begin!
