The System Is One Year Ahead Of Schedule, But It’S Not The End Of The World Yet!

Chapter 71: Annihilation! (Part 2)

As Chen Mo listened to the system prompt in his ears, he also caught a whiff of a sweet, bloody smell.

Soon, he realized that something was wrong. Why did the bloody smell suddenly become sweet?

Instantly, he thought of his vampire bloodline.

"System, didn't you say that there are no side effects to merging bloodlines? Why do I find the bloody smell so sweet?"

[System Prompt: Feeling the taste as sweet does not belong to side effects. True vampires have a pathological craving for blood. Once they haven't consumed blood for a long time, they can't suppress the urge to feed when they smell blood. The fused vampire bloodline of the host no longer has this side effect. It only perceives the bloody smell as sweet, without triggering addiction or an irresistible urge to consume.]

Hearing the system's explanation, Chen Mo had nothing to complain about.

Indeed, although he found the bloody smell sweet, it was just that. He now only felt like he had come across a decent food, without any strong desire to eat.

In this sense, it was actually a good thing rather than a side effect.

After merging with the vampire bloodline, his fourth ability, Blood Worship, required him to consume blood to further enhance his combat power.

If the blood tasted foul, it would definitely be burdensome to drink.

But if the taste of blood changed from foul to sweet, the burden would be much smaller.

However, at this moment, Chen Mo didn't care about the bloody smell. Instead, based on his senses, he started heading towards the direction of those four people.

Although the four members of the Seagull Squad had lost communication, they were all well-trained professionals.

According to the plan they had previously established for abnormal communication situations, they had already started gathering in a predetermined direction.

At this point, they clearly felt that something was wrong.

"Why did our walkie-talkies suddenly malfunction? Something's fishy. Chen Mo must have someone secretly protecting him. We might have been discovered."

"What about Lauren? Why don't we see her?" The teammates immediately looked around.

"It seems like something happened to her!" The white male team leader, who was also the captain, immediately sensed that something was amiss. "Retreat!"

Since they had already realized that something was wrong, they couldn't stay in this place for long.

But just as they were preparing to leave, the short knife that Lauren had been holding suddenly flew towards them at an extremely fast speed.

"What the hell!?"

Before the four could react, they saw something swiftly pass by.

In an instant, swish swish swish, three heads were cleanly severed.

As for the captain of the Seagull Squad, he only felt a terrifying gust of wind coming towards him. The next moment, a strong hand firmly gripped his lower jaw!

With a sudden exertion of force from this hand, his lower jaw immediately shattered, and his mouth was split in half.

Speaking became extremely difficult.

At the same time, he felt himself being lifted by a tremendous force and dragged into a nearby alley.

It was only now that he finally saw who was behind all this.

The familiar young man in front of him, who else could it be but Chen Mo?

He had used Shadow Step to approach invisibly, and with the help of his Exotic Ability, he swiftly killed the other three members of the Seagull Squad with flying knives.

Finally, he captured the captain and dragged him into the nearby alley, intending to interrogate him properly.

Seeing himself being easily controlled by a young boy like this, the captain of the Seagull Squad felt a sense of disbelief.

He immediately, like Lauren, reached behind and pulled out a sharp dagger identical to the one Lauren carried with him, ready to strike Chen Mo in front of him.

But before he could swing the knife, he suddenly felt a pain in his left hand.

When he turned his head, he saw that his left hand had been crushed by the right hand of this seemingly weak little boy in front of him.

Even the handle of the knife he held was severely deformed.

At this moment, with a shattered jaw and unable to speak, the captain of the Seagull Squad could only gasp in pain and couldn't even utter a cry of agony.

"If you were obedient, you could have suffered less, but unfortunately you're not!" Chen Mo said, and then he reached out and crushed the captain's right hand again.

Now, both of the captain's hands were completely disabled by Chen Mo.

Although this was the first time Chen Mo had done something like this, he didn't feel any fear or discomfort at all.

There were several reasons for this, including his own indifference towards these things, but the main reason for his calm and ruthless treatment of the enemy with such thunderous methods was undoubtedly his high spiritual attributes.

A person with a strong spirit is not easily affected by various discomforts.

In addition, Chen Mo had integrated the bloodline of the vampire and gained the ability to worship blood, so he naturally felt more comfortable with blood and didn't feel any discomfort.

So his handling of the situation at this moment seemed extremely mature and experienced.

As if he was a seasoned veteran who often mingled in this line of work.

This was also what made the captain of the Seagull Squad amazed.

He was surprised that such a young student could have such a mentality and ruthless methods without blinking an eye.

"Alright, there shouldn't be anyone passing by here. Now, I ask, you answer," Chen Mo said with a smile to the captain of the Seagull Squad.

Seeing Chen Mo's smile, the captain of the Seagull Squad seemed to see a devil laughing.

You ask, I answer? You crushed my mouth, and then you crushed my hands. I can't speak or write. What can I use to answer you?

Seeing the other party looking at him with an expression as if he had gone mad, Chen Mo immediately smiled and said, "You just need to listen to my questions. As for how you answer, you don't need to worry about it."

Having already activated mind reading, Chen Mo naturally read the thoughts in the other party's mind.

Soon, Chen Mo began to inquire about more of the Tang family's plans and their general direction of cooperation.

Indeed, as the captain of the squad, Guld, knew a little more than the squad members.

But this captain of the Seagull Squad named Lance was not the overall captain of the twenty-person team that came to the Magic City this time.

The overall captain this time was called Lance, a guy with considerable strength.

According to Guld's concept, this Lance was very good at assassination techniques, so this time the Tang family hired them specifically to assassinate certain influential figures.

And Chen Mo had already learned a small part of these influential figures.

Among them, at least three of the top ten groups in the Magic City's top 100 groups were within the Tang family's sniper range.

However, their assassination plan was not without reason. They first gained the support of one faction among them, promising to help them take control of the group and eliminate another faction for them.

During this process, the members of that faction would also do some dirty work. After obtaining evidence against them, everyone would officially embark on the same boat, making it difficult for them to betray each other in the future.

In general, large groups, except for the founding leaders, once passed down, various factions would inevitably emerge that couldn't be controlled.

Only a few successors like Du Renyuan, who had outstanding abilities, had the ability to firmly grasp the legacy passed down by their ancestors, even to the point of extreme centralization and control, and even changing the name of the group to their own name.

The Tang family and some forces in the imperial capital took advantage of the internal factional struggles within many groups in the Magic City, which gave them the opportunity to intervene.

For any particularly difficult opponent, they would need to resort to some unsavory means to deal with them.

The Seagull Squad was used for this kind of thing.

However, the Tang family did not tell the Seagull Squad all of their specific targets at once. They only gave them a few targets to know in advance, so that they could prepare in advance. For example, Chen Mo was one of the targets that Tang San gave to the Seagull Squad in advance, but he only asked them to gather information, not to take action directly.

But yesterday, when Chen Mo saved Du Renyuan, it made Tang San so angry that he activated them ahead of schedule.

Originally, they would have needed to gather more information and make a more thorough plan before taking action.

Since the Tang family did not reveal many targets, Chen Mo did not obtain much information from Guld.

Seeing that Guld was no longer useful, Chen Mo lost interest.

Just like how he dealt with Lauren, he used Gravity Control to lift him into the air and then suddenly increased the gravity to make him fall to the ground at a high speed.

In this way, any injuries on his body could be explained as a result of the fall.

After suffering such a perverted fall injury, when he fell to the ground, his whole body would definitely be shattered and he would turn into a pile of mud.

Feeling himself suddenly flying into the sky, Guld was shocked and couldn't believe that superpowers really existed in the world.

"How could this be? The Tang family wants to kill this kind of monster! This is not something that can be dealt with by human power! Damn it! Fuck! Shit! Fuck!"

As Guld cursed and swore in shock while flying in the air, he suddenly felt an incredibly terrifying gravity pressing down on him.

The next moment, he fell at a high speed and with a loud bang, he landed heavily on the ground, losing consciousness.

At this point, the entire Seagull Squad was wiped out!

Lauren and Guld died from the rapid fall.

Naturally, Chen Mo had nothing to do with it.

The other three were killed by Lauren's dagger, and Chen Mo didn't have direct contact with them, so he had nothing to do with them either.

There was no way they would trace it back to him.

Killing these five assassins, Chen Mo gained quite a good reward this time.

Lauren was a Rank Six elite zombie, and among the other four, three were Rank Three Metahumans, and one was a Rank Five zombie.

The reward for killing a Rank Three Metahuman was 3000 survival points, but because Chen Mo killed them across ranks, he received an additional 1000 survival points for each rank crossed, so he received 5000 survival points. Of course, this algorithm is for when the system does not give out gift packages.

The total reward for killing the three Rank Three Metahumans was 15000 survival points.

The reward for killing the Rank Five zombie was 2500 survival points and a B-grade gift package.

By killing five assassins, Chen Mo gained a total of 22500 survival points, one B-grade gift package, and one A-grade gift package.

At the same time, he also completed the three-star difficulty daily mission (1) and received 10000 survival points and two three-star Transcendent Level daily gift packages.

In total, he earned 23500 survival points and four gift packages, which could be considered a good profit.

At this point, Chen Mo's survival points had reached 293404. If it weren't for the fact that staying at a lower rank would allow him to earn better rewards, with so many points, Chen Mo would have to improve his attributes.

As he walked towards the school, Chen Mo opened the gift package he had just received.

"System, the previous Transcendent Level daily gift package always contained one item and one set of living supplies. What's the difference with the three-star Transcendent Level daily gift package?"

[System Prompt: The daily gift package for high-level stars will have a higher chance of rewarding good items, and the quantity of daily items opened will also be greater.]

"So that's how it is. Let me open it and see what comes out."

As the three-star Transcendent Level daily gift package opened.

Chen Mo obtained six sets of daily supplies, which were useless to him, so he directly threw them into the system warehouse. However, the physical rewards that were opened turned out to be two pretty good things.

[System Prompt: Successfully opened the three-star Transcendent Level daily gift package, you obtained the item 'Transcendent Level Restoration Pill'!]

[System Prompt: Successfully opened the three-star Transcendent Level daily gift package, you obtained the item 'Damage Resistance Talisman'!]

[Transcendent Level Restoration Pill]: After taking this pill, all injuries and energy (of all types) can be immediately restored.

"Good stuff, this is like having an extra life, right? Immortal beans, huh."

Seeing the effect of the Transcendent Level Restoration Pill, Chen Mo immediately thought of something called Immortal Beans. When you take one of these, all injuries and energy can be directly restored to their peak state. Eating it when on the verge of death is almost the same as coming back to life.

It is definitely an excellent supply item.

[Damage Resistance Talisman]: Blocks any level of damage once.

"Invincible once, huh? Strong!"

Putting away the Transcendent Level Restoration Pill and the Damage Resistance Talisman, Chen Mo immediately looked at the B-level gift package.

[System Prompt: Successfully opened the gift package, congratulations on obtaining the B-level item - 'Najie'!]

[Najie]: Possesses a 100 cubic meter internal space ring, can store any object except living beings.

"Oh? There's also a spatial ring."

Seeing the introduction of Najie, Chen Mo couldn't help but think of a wonderful use for it.

Previously, in order to keep those assassins from having anything to do with him, he had some reservations about taking action.

But with Najie, it would be much more convenient.

If there are any assassins causing trouble for him in the future, he can just kill them and store them in Najie. That way, it would be done and there would be no need to worry about various follow-up troubles.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo immediately happily put on Najie on his finger.

Although Chen Mo has a system warehouse, the system warehouse can only store items produced by the system and cannot store external items.

Najie, on the other hand, is different and is much more useful.

If this thing is given to a great thief, it would be the best stealing tool.

After Chen Mo finished opening the B-level gift package, he was about to open the A-level gift package.

Then he saw some commotion coming from Su Ya's teahouse, so he immediately looked over there...

As Chen Mo left the residential area, the bodies of the five assassins from the Seagull Squad were quickly discovered.

This time, the related news also spread quickly.

Because the location of the incident was too close to the Mingyuan residential area.

This is where Zhao Yue and Chen Mo live.

In addition, the deaths of these five people were all extremely mysterious. Whether it was the Yellow Robe Society, Qing Society, or Wei Lao's side, they all received the news one after another.

The Tang family also received the message in a timely manner. After all, Tang San was waiting for their good news.
