I'm the King of Wage Earners in Lobotomy City

At the same time, countless bright red "death" characters, carrying with them a gray aura of death, spread out, seeping into most of Ju Yu's body like fine gauze.

"Ugh!"

Juyu immediately groaned with a contorted expression, and quickly rolled on the ground to steady herself.

call!

"It's not over yet!"

Before Du Jue could catch his breath, a giant cross-shaped sword blazing with intense flames suddenly attacked from behind. The violent wind pressure even caused all the items in the shop to tip over, making Du Jue instantly understand what it felt like to face an overwhelming force.

Bang!

The powerful cross-shaped sword swept away all obstacles, and the gray shadow that was knocked away immediately smashed through the wall of the grocery store and rolled awkwardly into the abandoned factory. It immediately attracted a three-person team that endured the pain and surrounded and attacked.

puff!

The black longsword of the association's henchman pierced Du Jue's chest with steady, accurate, and ruthless precision.

"Good job!"

Before Ju Yu could catch up with her in surprise, she was stunned to see that the boning knife, which looked like a kitchen utensil, had decapitated her subordinate without any resistance. The flying head made the deathly aura around Lead Gray Melody surge even more.

"Damn it! Red Cross, this guy underwent some unknown modification surgery. We have to smash his head open!"

"Everyone be careful, there's a gap in the intelligence!"

Feeling the death energy forcibly mending his own corpse, Du Jue cleaved back two finishers, and suddenly noticed that they were not gathered together, but were in groups of three, keeping their distance.

After scanning the area, Du Jue found that there were fewer than thirty enemies, who were probably all high-level finishers. It seems that this was a tactic specifically designed for Lead Grey Symphony.

Defeat everyone here.

"Pain is not a curse that follows you like a shadow, but a warning that danger is approaching."

Du Jue twirled the boning knife in his hand, pointing the tip at Ju Yu, "You went to such great lengths to approach me, you must have been prepared to face the pain of death."

Seeing this, Juyu merely snorted coldly, then turned and ordered, "Use the special painkiller! Everyone, attack with all your might! We absolutely cannot let him stall for time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Red Cross charged forward again without hesitation, and the other two squads immediately stepped forward to assist him.

Enduring pain for a short time is a required course for the association. In a short time, they fought three rounds of intense battles, and the whistling cross swords even plowed huge cracks in the ground.

hum!

An inaudible rhythm began, and even those who kept their distance felt a kind of oppressive pain at the end.

"Pain is the echo of reality after a choice has been made in one's heart, but it is not meant to drag people into the shadows of the past, but rather to serve as a reminder—it is time for you to leave this place."

By amplifying the suppression of inner pain, one can easily pour out all of this overflowing emotion.

The conductor's talent from the Ring Command instantly filled the entire battlefield with an inaudible symphony.

Buzz!

"Ughhhh, what is this?!"

Juyu looked incredulously at the gray mist surrounding Dujue, quite certain that she had not stepped into its range at all, but the pain surging in her heart was incredibly real, even draining her fighting spirit.

boom!

Crimson Cross, gritting his teeth, swung his giant cross sword and charged forward relentlessly. The expensive weapon, jointly produced by the Branding Workshop and the Giant Object Workshop, crushed rusty machines and cement walls one after another, but he never actually hit his opponent.

Using the time acceleration brought by the "Hidden Dragon" technique, Du Jue quickly stitched up the broken bones in his arm and retreated and dodged with ease.

The inability to catch the target made Zhu Hongshi immediately realize that something was wrong with his teammates. They weren't cooperating with him to block the enemy's retreat. Turning around, he exclaimed in disbelief, "What is that?!"

Each of the finishers was accompanied by at least one gray figure, which was attacking and tearing at them with either a ferocious or roaring expression.

"No! I believe it was an accidental killing, a problem with your prosthetic body, but I was just following orders!"

Even though the finisher could easily parry the gray-shadowed man's attacks, he couldn't help but take a step back.

Tear!

After wiping out the gray-skinned man with a single shot, Ju Yu roared at the finisher, "It's a battle now! Fight back! Don't you dare get me killed!"

However, when she turned her head, she saw a gray-haired young man with a single ponytail. He angrily accused Kikuyu of taking all the credit for the dangerous commission, leaving him to be fired by the agency as a pawn.

Juyu stared at him and took a deep breath nervously. The pain that had been buried in the past surged up uncontrollably, and she suddenly had a bad feeling—this time, the handling of the City Star was probably completely different from the past.

Boom!

The heavy cross sword instantly shattered the gray-shadowed youth, and the crimson cross sword roared at the still-stunned finishers, "Stop dawdling! Kill him with me!"

175

Symphony No. 175.

"No! These things will just come together again even if we scatter them, Chief Kikuyu, what should we do?!"

The finisher hurriedly raised his sword to slash away the approaching gray shadow, only to find himself enveloped in deathly aura.

The agony of death instantly contorted his face, while the grey shadow messenger beside him, who had instantly reassembled, became lightning-fast, slicing open the finisher's right arm with his rapier.

Tread.

Du Jue simply passed by this unknown finisher silently, without any intention of stopping. Through his recent attempt, he had completely mastered the use of the secondary symphony.

The theme of this symphony is suffering, so these gray shadows will constantly inflict physical and mental pain on the audience, and will even become stronger in response to the audience's suffering.

"We can't delay any longer! Kikuyu, you have to make a decision!"

Zhu Hongshi, who was struggling to clear away the gray shadows in front of him, found this Urban Star to be extremely troublesome, even though the opponent had not appeared in a crowded place like the auction house!

He simply couldn't imagine how he would deal with such a powerful and bizarre enemy in the back alley or inside the lair!

Upon hearing this, Juyu's eyes hardened, and she ignored the gray shadow that was relentlessly clinging to her. She shouted out two names in a sharp voice, but in a daze, she heard faint cheers.

The Dionysian Celebration!

The faint, pungent smell of alcohol wafted from everyone's breath, and the pain and the fear of pain itself increasingly pushed aside any remaining rationality.

Du Jue waved his baton to deflect the heavy punch from the finisher, then, enduring excruciating pain, fiercely stabbed, twisting his wrist to spin the opponent around before decisively pulling him out of his chest.

puff!

The deep, bone-revealing puncture wound immediately caused the opponent's face to twitch in pain, and the deathly aura that enveloped him made him involuntarily howl in agony.

"Ugh! I can hold it in!"

Even though he still wanted to follow Kikuyu's orders and step forward, the gray-shadow thumb soldier wielding the butt of his rifle suddenly shoved him aside, and the tailman, whose body was tense due to the pain, immediately staggered backward.

"Those who cannot perceive pain, and those who do not avoid pain, are the debris that the world will naturally clean up."

Despite suppressing the pain in his heart, Du Jue continued to move forward slowly. Even those who risked their lives to finish off the enemy would suffer to the extreme when they encountered the dense death aura around him, and would immediately be tightly entangled by the suddenly powerful gray shadow.

What was supposed to be an attack on the lead-gray symphony has now turned into a gray concert hall. The successive deaths of the finishers have caused the terrifying aura of death to gradually spread, enveloping most of the finishers who are trying to shake off the gray shadows.

"Everyone, cover the Scarlet Cross!"

Juyu roared hoarsely, angrily piercing the gray-shadowed youth's head once more, but the newly born, painful gray shadow reappeared, endless like the shadows of the past.

She personally summoned her subordinates after hearing the news, and even borrowed manpower from the Second Division. Thinking that they might die here in vain, Juyu decisively put aside the gray shadow in her sight and the pain in her heart, and turned to stare at the culprit.

The guy was strolling leisurely across the battlefield, even shaking his baton with great interest, which made Ju Yu's eyes widen in disbelief. She simply couldn't comprehend what kind of bizarre technique this was.

"Follow me! Charge!"

Juyu no longer hesitated. She knew that in such a battle, hesitation would only lead to more sacrifices. She then dodged the gray shadow's slash and sped away.

Two of the recently named finishers immediately responded, determined to follow Chrysanthemum Rain even at the risk of being severely injured by Gray Shadow.

Seeing this, Zhu Hongshi, who was busy putting out fires everywhere, was also energized. He knew that the situation could not be allowed to remain deadlocked any longer, otherwise the entire team would be in dire straits.

Faced with the aggressive advancing team, Du Jue stopped trying to persuade them, because words were useless! He had no regrets about his choice!

Crackling!

Suddenly, the giant cross-shaped sword burst into flames, creating a sea of ​​fire around it.

It was hard to believe that anyone could run while carrying such a high-temperature and heavy weapon amidst the raging flames, but Crimson Cross not only gritted his teeth and endured it, but orange flames also appeared on his trench coat.

"right!"

With a single shot, Ju Yu repelled the approaching gray shadow. Without hesitation, she discarded the piece of black metal, turned around, and broke through the death aura from the left. The barbed spear that had transformed in her hand whistled through the air and headed straight for Lead Gray's wailing neck.

The two finishers on the other side had also joined forces to fend off the approaching gray shadows and blocked the right side of the escape route.

The crimson cross, hurtling head-on like a fiery meteor, grabbed the cross sword and, with all its might, flung the burning behemoth in a semi-circle, creating a series of air-burst sounds.

Even as the agony of death he was enduring was about to exceed his limit, Du Jue could still sense the immense sense of danger emanating from the cross-shaped sword opposite him. He didn't know if he could be stitched back together with death energy even if he were smashed into pieces. In such a perilous situation, there was nowhere to hide using ordinary methods.

The hidden dragon should not be used!

The heat accumulated from the recent attack evaporated rapidly, even slowing down the speed of the crimson cross. The tightly encircling circle of death suddenly appeared full of flaws in Du Jue's eyes.

Swish!

The lightly equipped Du Jue was incredibly fast, not to mention the physical enhancements brought by the formal attire.

He almost exchanged blows with the two finishers on his right, and the boning knife he was holding pierced through their heads. The knife, designed for flesh and blood attacks, was more convenient for killing than for cooking.

Buzz!

The deathly aura and the symphony were simultaneously amplified by the fresh death, causing Kikuyu, who had just shown a look of horror, to scream in pain.

Rumble!

The cross sword slammed into the ground. Crimson Cross, watching Lead Gray Melody dodge almost instantly, felt like he'd seen a ghost. How could this guy be so fast?!

“Hmm!!”

The agony of death made him cry out, and the Scarlet Cross finally saw a gray figure that looked exactly like himself.

The once ruthless and tearless Crimson Cross's expression changed drastically. He immediately turned around, pulled up the kneeling Chrysanthemum Rain, and ran away, not forgetting to instruct the other members of the association to clean up the mess: "Withdraw! Withdraw quickly! This operation has completely failed. Abandon the objective!"

Tear!

The gray-haired youth, spurred by extreme pain, launched a sudden attack, instantly knocking Juyu, who had raised her hand to block, to the ground. She could only shout through the pain, "Everyone, the intelligence is wrong, I'll cover the rear!"

"Choices are never one-way."

Hearing that familiar, androgynous voice, Juyu anxiously stood up, but the slender baton pierced through her raised right arm in an instant.

Because some of the workshop's weapons had been discarded, the black metal could no longer cover her entire arm.

The celebration of Dionysus was abruptly halted. With a twist of the baton, countless barbed hooks sprang out, and then it was ripped apart without mercy.

Tear!

His exposed right arm was instantly torn to shreds.

"you!!"

Just as Ju Yu was about to fight back, she was once again entangled by the gray-shadowed youth. The frustration and resentment in her heart were almost as great as the endless stream of pain. She was tormented by the constant agony of death, which made her limbs uncoordinated.

With other squads taking the initiative to cover the rear, there was enough time for the performance.

Du Jue looked up at the sky and at the drone still hovering in the far distance. With a sudden swing of his boning knife, he silenced Ju Yu completely. Turning around, he saw the corpses of the association's cleanup crew scattered all over the ground.

The sun has already set.

Turning his head to look at the remnants of the association and the Crimson Cross fleeing in a sorry state to the south, Du Jue, who had been freed from the death aura, finally gasped for breath. His head was still buzzing and he could hardly think, but he still suppressed his discomfort and grabbed Ju Yu's association coat to wipe his baton.

[Throw a baton to indicate the location of Donglang]

Northeast direction.

176

Chapter 176 Research Institute.

call!

Du Jue, who had quickly returned to the basement of the deli, rubbed his chest with lingering fear. The phantom pain brought on by the death energy spread throughout his body, but fortunately he was already used to it and wouldn't have to lie in bed all night before he could continue.

"Mother!"

He stopped gasping for breath and shouting repeatedly. He definitely couldn't go looking for him under the drone's surveillance now, otherwise what would happen if Dong Lang took the train and went on a city tour with him?

They had only just repelled one association in the south; Du Jue certainly didn't want to provoke every part of the city.

"I'm coming!"
