Chapter 332 I Don’t Want That
Eris pressed her lips together slightly, feeling being wronged with tears in eyes. The always merciless Odd Goddess looked like a kid right now. She almost cried out loud.
Crack!
Athena raised her hands pulling apart the iron chain on Eris’s neck. She then took the latter walking towards outside.
The broken chain dropped on the ground with a burst of clang. Eris turned her head back while walking, casting resentful glares at Liu Feng. Although she didn’t say anything, her looks exposed her minds.
But Liu Feng didn’t even care about Eris. He said calmly, “Athena, when you walked out of the slave auction house, the game begins.”
Athena’s feet slightly hesitated, then she kept walking outside.
“Now you, the Netherworld, must fight to the end with the Goddess Palace,” said Yao Xiansen with a playful tone when seeing Athena leave.
Liu Feng laughed, “It has already been like that for a long time.”
When he was talking, Liu Feng stood up. He stretched and walked outside.
“The Netherworld, Feng Liu, you’ve made up your mind to destroy the Goddess Palace. You do want to stir up the western underground world again, don’t you?”
Yao Xiansen murmured, “The last time he stirred it up was about five years ago. He destroyed consecutively several large mercenary regiments in the western underground world and established the Netherworld by gathering forces remained. At that time, I’m afraid that no one would imagine that an eastern man would have such a horrible achievement in the western underground world.”
After saying these words, Yao Xiansen also stood up and walked outside.
“Big Boss...”
“Don’t say anything. What we need to do is to leave as soon as possible.”
Eris wanted to say something at outside, but Athena interrupted her.
Seeing Athena being so serious, Eris felt heavy, too. She didn’t feel the joy of regaining her freedom.
People of the Goddess Palace kept moving at a fast pace. They kept looking left and right observing their surroundings.
“Yama. It seems that the damn asshole doesn’t want us to go back alive to the Goddess Palace.”
After walking for a while, Eris couldn’t help saying, “All slave workshops in the always prosperous Jammaland have shut down. The street is deathly quiet. It makes me feel bad.”
“I fought against people of the Netherworld when I came here. Even if they were here, they should be low-level members or from other subordinate forces. Before its crack members come, we must...”
Athena wanted to say that they must leave before the Netherworld’s crack members came. But she failed to finish her words.
In other words, if the Goddess Palace had such a good chance, wouldn’t they dispatch crack members to kill Yama the Big Boss of the Netherworld?
So, after Athena failed to finish her words, the atmosphere became rather creepy and serious.
Swoosh!
At the moment, the sound of airflow caused by the bullet of a sniper rifle was heard.
Athena and Eris moved away fast out of instinct. But the temple of a large-sized man behind them burst with blood.
An eight-centimeter bullet went through the man’s head. It, leaving a more than two-meter blood line, shot at a wall across the street with a bang. It created a deep hole.
“Attack!”
“Find covers. Be ready to fight.”
Athena and Eris simultaneously made the best choice. They commanded their people to hide on both sides of the street.
However, five minutes later, no more gunshots followed.
“Damn it! The crack members haven’t come. They’re buying time for them.”
At a moment, Athena seemed to have figured out something. She hurried out and commanded loud, “Go. Follow me and rush.”
“Go!”
Eris followed her closely. She shouted, “As long as we survived, we would destroy the Netherworld.”
“As long as we survived...”
“We would destroy the Netherworld!”
Other members of the Goddess Palace also ran out. They were in a dead end now. And they must clean out a path by fighting. But in such a desperate situation, their spirit was lifted to the highest level in a short time.
However, even so, would they leave here alive?
Suddenly, a man in black ran out from one side of the street. He was merely thirty meters away from Athena who was at the front.
Seeing the man in black, Athena squinted her big blue eyes. She was not afraid of the man, but the rocket projectile carried on his shoulder.
Boom...
Once the man in black showed up, he knelt down and fired the rocket projectile at people of the Goddess Palace.
The rocket projectile went towards Athena’s chest, leaving behind a white smoke trace and carrying a whistle of death.
“Shit!”
Although Athena was The First Goddess and the head of the Goddess Palace, she was terrified out of hell by the rocket projectile. She soon bent the curvy body down like an arch bridge, which was from the stance “Diamond Iron Bridge”.
The rocket projectile flew across Athena’s upper body. It was so close to her that she would have been blown up if she moved a little slower.
The First Goddess made her dodge. But people behind her were not that lucky.
Boom!
The rocket projectile exploded twenty meters behind her. A woman soldier in dark red camouflage was blown up into pieces. As the wave of the explosion spread, three people were killed by shrapnel and one was seriously injured.
It only took a single attack to make the Goddess Palace lose four people. It also broke up the high spirit of its members.
“Damn it!”
Athena was burning with rage. She stood up only to see the man in black, who had fired the rocket projectile, running towards the other side of the street while carrying the bazooka, “If I let you go, where should I, The First Goddess, put my face?”
The First Goddess ran to the man in black without hesitation.
But she stopped soon after she ran out for mere two steps.
Boom!
On the ground ten centimeters before Athena’s feet, something exploded leaving a deep bullet hole. The sniper shot again.
On Athena’s breathtakingly beautiful face broke out a layer of cold sweat. She knew that the sniper was not scaring her. Had she kept running forward, the bullet would have shot at her feet but before her feet.
It meant that the sniper didn’t want to kill but to cripple her.
If the head of Goddess Palace didn’t die in fighting but was caught alive and crippled, what would happen then? The Goddess Palace might be routed without fighting.
“Big Boss, you go behind. I’ll lead.” Eris ran to the front of Athena. She walked forward fast while holding a pistol. One could read no fear of death from her expression.
Athena didn’t say anything. She kept five meters away from Eris and moved forward fast.
The Goddess Palace didn’t have time to split to fight against those who had attacked them. They were racing with time.
While people of the Goddess Palace were sparing no efforts to leave Jammaland, some people would at times shoot and throw grenades. After running for only half of the way from the slave auction house to the border of Jammaland, crack members of the Goddess Palace felt like having gone through half a year.
The moment they saw the border of Jammaland, only three crack members out of over twenty survived. In addition to Athena and Eris, they had only five people left.
Besides, each of them was injured.
Yes, Athena and Eris were injured. But they were only slightly hurt, several abrasions on arms from shrapnel.
“Coming soon. Finally, we’re about to leave...”
“Damn Jammaland. I won’t come here for the rest of my life.”
“We only need to leave Jammaland and go to the desert, then we’ll survive.”
People of the Goddess Palace were cheering themselves up. They started to run faster.
However, when Eris ran through the border of Jammaland, a crack sound was heard beneath her feet. She then stood still.
“Landmine!”
Before Eris’ warning, Athena had known what it was from that crack. At the moment, she, The First Goddess, looked really bad, “The sound is from the circlip of metal locks. It’s the D22 landmine made in Celestial Empire.”
Eris was sad. Although weapons of Celestial Empire were not advanced in the International community, their usefulness was widely acknowledged.
The D22 landmine was called the most dangerous landmine. As long as the change of weight on the metal circlip exceeded 2.5kg, it would explode. What was more, it would explode too after two minutes even if you didn’t move. This was why it was called the most dangerous landmine.
Given two minutes and a change of weight of no more than 2.5kg, people would hardly survive. Firstly, you didn’t have enough time to clear the landmine. Secondly, even if you could clear it within two minutes, could you keep a change of weight within 2.5kg?
“Big Boss!”
Eris tried her best not to change the strength of her feet. She turned around slowly looking at Athena. Her eyes were full of reluctance and dread.
Athena walked to the front of Eris. She handed the round shield on the left hand to her, “Big Boss can’t help more. If you’re fast enough, you’ll survive. If not, then... I’ll take revenge for you.”
Then, Athena turned back and walked away.
“I...” Eris’ mind was complicated. She suddenly looked at a blood-covered member of the Goddess Palace, “Mo Ke, you come here. I need your help. Quickly.”
“Yes.” The man called Mo Ke walked over without hesitation.
Next... bang!
Eris stunned Mo Ke by using the edge of her hand. While he was falling, Eris pulled his body to her feet. She then bent her body and jumped backward while holding the shield.
Boom...
At the same time, the landmine exploded, stirring up a large patch of blood fog and dust.
“You...”
Athena cast a quick look at the staggering figure in the dust, “How can you do that?”
“Big Boss, if not, I must be disabled even if I survived. I don’t want that!” The staggering figure was Eris. She was walking out of the fog, holding the round shield, with bloodstains on the corners of her mouth and her hands.
