Number One Dungeon Supplier Chapter 1056 - Thinning the Guards

Chapter 1056 - Thinning the Guards

When a number of Atrocity Mafia guards had entered their derelict building, Xue Ping was there to stall them for as long as she could. The police officer was utilising her knowledge of urban warfare to create a buffer between her and the enemies. Fighting against someone with firearms had slowed the guards down considerably as they had to be extremely careful.

A single hit from her guns would be enough to cripple their fighting capabilities by half. It was to the point the demons had trouble s.h.i.+elding their casters from her suppressive fire, especially after she started using her modified power fist on top of the submachine gun.

Just like Xiong Da, she had decided to splurge a bit by modifying her power fist days before the raid. The complete overhaul of the entire power fist hadn't been cheap, yet due to the deal Jin had with the police, most of it got subsidised. (She was lucky the police chief used the dirty money they had confiscated from the Rat Triad.)

The newly modified power fist could periodically charge and shoot either waves of energy or in blast projectile forms. Xue Ping was using her power fist predominantly with the latter option to keep the Mafia demons at bay. The mix of bullets and the power projectiles had hindered the movement of the Atrocity guards long enough for Xue to run out of the building.

"Come up now!" Bin Yong instructed her through the intercom after the rest had already evacuated to the higher floors of the building. Xue Ping quickly used her cultivation to sprint to the back end of the building and released one more scattershot of energy blast from her power fist before jumping out of the window.

"I'm out!" Xue Ping replied through the intercom and Bin Yong instantly picked up his fuse detonator and pressed it. The explosive charges which he had placed before the engagement exploded sequentially from the window and into the building. While those charges were not strong enough to destroy the structure of the building as a whole, it would heavily damage the Mafia demons.

The building shook rather violently as the Pandawans braced themselves against the shockwave. Although a little shaky on their toes, Xue Ping immediately urged her teammates to put on their respirators. Both Xue Ping and Lee An used to be part of the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team before decided that they wanted a bit of desk work and thus the switch to inspectors, thus they knew how to perform in such an intense situation, something that their fellow Pandawans appreciated very much in this raid.

Their half mask visors activated the extension respirators, turning into full masks which allowed them to breathe through the aftermath of the explosion without much trouble. The points on their wrist watches had told them that not all of those below had died in the explosion.

True enough, many were dazed and severely injured from the attack, with those in the middle pa.s.sed out, so Bin Yong and the rest quickly rushed in to finish up the guards. To their surprise, some of the Mafia guards were not giving up and attempted to put up a fight despite their injuries. As valiant as their last stand effort was, the Pandawan team quickly rushed in for a coup de grace in order to not waste any strength and regroup with the rest.

s.h.i.+ Zuo dragged his axe through the ground while acc.u.mulating chi as he was a.s.signed to clear the enemies nearest to the window in case reinforcements were to appear. This allowed him to do a sweeping slash when he saw additional guards jump to the second floor. Any injured demons who had been caught in the attack were being thrown out of the window, ensuring their deaths through multiple dislocations.

Jia Le used her Breathtaking Bellflower Cultivation Style to detect any vital life signs within her magical range to point out any demon trying to fake their death. When it became clear that faking was not an option, those individual guards would jump to their feet and retaliate to the best of their ability.

Some even tried to stand as one and fought against Bin Yong but after all the dungeon instances they had fought in together, his girlfriend was familiar with his fighting style. She had already prepared a few support spells to aid him. A magical barrier spell appeared in front of him and magical Bellflowers would periodically appear to stop or at least soften the attacks, enabling the Beetle Pandawan to focus on defeating them one after the other.

As for Xue Ping, her power fist was nothing to scoff at as a few were sent flying through the ceiling to the third floor with her trademark uppercuts. It was a strategic wipe against the guards but their explosive actions might probably attract more than they could chew.

From the ground, Xiong Da and Lee An could see groups of Demon guards in large carriages coming towards them at high speed. Despite the initial upper hand in the situation, the Pandawans did not expect their reinforcements to come this quickly. Lee An could even detect a few strong magical signatures coming their way, indicating that they could be Atrocity's elites in Atrocity.

"We should retreat." Lee An said to the group, warning them about the impending danger. And the rest acknowledged except for Luo Bo and Ruo Ying who were chasing after their Guard Leader. Thankfully, they were heading south which was also the direction of the safehouse, so Lee An did not complain too much.

He merely warned that it could be a trap, advising them to finish the Guard Leader quickly or retreat if they got too far from the meeting point. Luo Bo confirmed the order from their resident police officer and with the experience of the consequences of moving too far away from her previous raids and dungeon instances, she intended to adhere to this rather strictly.

To ensure it was possible, it was best to immobilise the runaway before he could get any further!
