Colonial Suit

#276 - Do you see it? The eyes in the dark

Fresh blood rained down like a torrential downpour, splattering with fragments of flesh.

The faces of everyone in the arena changed.

Gazing at the scarlet mist in the distance, they could scarcely believe that it was the immensely powerful Wolfhawk from just moments ago. Had he been annihilated in a single exchange?

Just how terrifying was this demonic humanoid before them?

Click, click, click… The sound of chattering teeth echoed on the silent bridge. Mina's remaining guards trembled, their faces pale. They suddenly realized that this terrifying demon was on Carrie's side, which meant he was their enemy?

At the thought of having to fight such a terrifying demon, the few remaining guards could no longer control the fear in their hearts, and they nearly fainted.

On the other side… Bloodshot moved his fingers, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

This was the first time he had used Ketlarms in actual combat, and he hadn't expected it to be so powerful. Was this sense of control beyond reality what he possessed? For a moment… Bloodshot even felt a sense of unreality.

From the initial optical camouflage infiltration to the subsequent super-wave blade tearing through the energy layer, and finally the force field compression, Ketlarms provided absolute suppression throughout the entire process. Wolfhawk, an enemy who had once troubled him, couldn't even withstand a single exchange before being killed. How could that exhilarating feeling be described with mere words?

This was power, absolute power. The pleasure of this power was like a drug, sending uncontrollable stimulation through every nerve in Bloodshot's body.

Of course, the success was also related to Bloodshot's tactics. If he hadn't infiltrated from the beginning and prevented Wolfhawk from equipping his armor at a crucial moment, Wolfhawk probably wouldn't have been killed so easily.

But the loser was still a loser. For a dead man, any reason was meaningless.

He flexed his claw-like fingers for a moment, then clenched them with a bang. Bloodshot turned to look at Cowboy Number Five not far away.

He saw that he still wore a nonchalant smile, leaning against the railing with Carrie in his arms. When he saw Bloodshot turn his head, he even waved his fingers.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me."

"…………" Bloodshot was silent, but a scanning image appeared below his right eye, clearly showing the physical condition of Cowboy Number Five. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Cowboy Number Five was indeed fine, or rather, he hadn't suffered any serious injuries at all. Whether it was luck or intentional, Wolfhawk's shot had passed right next to his heart, without damaging the heart itself, and had barely grazed any blood vessels. It had only shattered a few bones and left a bloody hole. Such an injury seemed serious, but for a cosmic warrior, it wasn't even a hair.

This guy's luck was as good as ever. Bloodshot even suspected that he had a secret affair with the Goddess of Luck.

At this moment, Mina, who hadn't spoken all this time, spoke. Although her face was a little pale, she still maintained the dignity of the Romick family head, her voice very steady.

"Who are you?"

"…………" Bloodshot turned his head, but didn't answer. However, his demonic appearance was too oppressive, causing the guards to tense up again.

After a while, Bloodshot said in a deep voice, "My name is Bloodshot."

Before he finished speaking, the outer edge of his left arm suddenly emitted a metallic sound, extending a giant super-wave blade with a length of three meters. Before everyone could react, Bloodshot raised his arm and swung the blade!

The blade light was like a crescent moon in the night, fleeting…

The guards still maintained their shocked expressions, feeling a sharp pain in their waists, and then, in full view of everyone, they were split in two. They collapsed to the ground in pieces.

"Ah!" Carrie exclaimed, but was immediately covered her eyes by Cowboy Number Five.

"Don't look, darling, don't look," he said softly, his eyes indescribably tender.

Mina's face was also very bad. Obviously, she didn't expect Bloodshot to suddenly kill. These guards were her last protection. The other party's meaning was obvious. But as the head of the Romick family, Mina still maintained her dignity even at this time, biting her lip and said.

"Why?"

"Why are you standing on Carrie's side. You should know that I am the head of the Romick family. If you need something, believe that I can give you more."

"…………" Bloodshot was silent, the super-wave blade on the outer edge of his left arm still sharp. It looked extremely violent. Although he didn't do anything special, the terrible killing intent quietly enveloped the entire bridge. No one doubted that he would kill Mina in the next moment.

But just then, a tremor suddenly came from the bridge. Bloodshot's eyes flashed, and he turned to look…

In the distant starry sky, a light spot approached at high speed, approaching the Waterfall Bridge in just an instant. Before everyone could react, it crashed head-on into the Waterfall Bridge.

With a bang, fragments of crystal shot in all directions. The Waterfall Bridge was actually smashed into a large hole by it. Everyone was knocked to the ground, and then pulled towards the hole by the suction of the cosmic vacuum.

The piercing alarm sounded through the sky, and soon, countless alloy gates appeared on the left and right sides of the Waterfall Bridge, completely sealing the entire bridge.

The bridge was immediately pitch black. In an instant, the emergency lights came on, allowing people to see the object that had crashed in.

It was actually an oval assault pod…

"Oops." Cowboy Number Five got up from the ground and chuckled. "Unexpected guest."

"It's White Eyes." Carrie was also very embarrassed. The violent shock not only made her fall miserably, but also tore her last clothes, now she was almost naked. But she didn't care about these, just hugged Cowboy Number Five tightly, her body shivering.

"White Eyes is here!"

White Eyes!?

Hearing this name, Bloodshot narrowed his eyes slightly. But his left arm still raised without hesitation, and slashed at Mina not far away.

As a warrior, Bloodshot would not be disturbed by the outside world no matter what. This knife was even more merciless.

The bright blade light once again cut through space. But the expected blood did not appear. After the blade light disappeared, everyone was surprised to find that Mina had left the spot at some point and appeared next to the assault pod. And the hatch of that assault pod… was slowly opening.

"No no no, young man. I can't let you hurt my client."

A calm voice sounded in the air, and everyone's faces changed.

So fast!!

How strong would the man in this assault pod have to be to rescue someone in Bloodshot's blade light? What was even more incredible was that none of the people present saw how he did it.

The atmosphere suddenly solidified, and everyone stared at the hatch. It was as if a demon was hidden inside.

The hatch slowly opened, and finally, a hand rested on the door. Then a man slowly walked out.

Oh, God. Is he White Eyes?

When everyone saw the man walking out of the assault pod with their own eyes, everyone was dumbfounded.

Not because this man was anything special, but because he was so… unremarkable.

A head of white hair, a long beard. A dry and dirty coat. Plus withered fingers and an old face full of wrinkles. If it hadn't been for the strange things that had just happened, no one would have associated him with White Eyes.

What was even more unacceptable was that the old man's actions were so slow and sluggish, like an old man in his twilight years. It gave people the feeling that he might be blown down by a gust of wind, let alone fight.

"This is White Eyes?" Cowboy Number Five rolled his eyes and asked Carrie.

"No… I don't know. I haven't seen White Eyes." Carrie hugged Cowboy Number Five's arm tightly, but her body was still shaking. Obviously, the old image of White Eyes did not give her any sense of security.

In fact, this was also the case. As a death mercenary who had run rampant a hundred years ago, White Eyes had left too much infamy in the Fifth World. It could be said that there were people in the entire Fifth World who had not heard of their parents' names, but there was probably no one who had not heard of White Eyes' name. What's more, many people grew up under the shadow of White Eyes' infamy. The name White Eyes was not just a code name for them, but a terrifying nightmare.

At Miss Carrie's age, it was of course impossible to grow up in White Eyes' infamy, but she couldn't help but feel fear.

But hearing Cowboy Number Five's words, White Eyes glanced over here. A kind smile appeared on his old face. "You must be Miss Carrie. Hello."

"Y… You… hello." Carrie suppressed the fear in her heart and nodded in response.

"See, isn't this great?" White Eyes clapped his hands lightly and said with a smile. "We have a great start. Let's continue, you will find that many legends in this world are lies. I'm just an old man who is about to die."

"But before you die, you have to finish what you promised me." A voice interrupted White Eyes, it was Mina.

She was frowning. Obviously dissatisfied with White Eyes' greeting with Carrie. Her full chest was surging up and down. In fact, just now she thought she was dead. Bloodshot swung the knife so fast that she didn't even have room to struggle. If White Eyes hadn't suddenly taken action, she couldn't imagine whether she would be like the corpses on the ground.

So now she felt very angry, and there was a hint of fear she had never experienced before. Unconsciously, it was warm between her legs. The extreme shame and fear finally made her unable to help but speak out. Even lost the etiquette of the nobility.

But White Eyes didn't care about her rudeness at all, but patted the back of her hand understandingly and comforted her softly.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine. The Romick patriarch should remain calm at all times, just like your great-grandfather."

"But…" Mina wanted to say something, but saw White Eyes shake his finger gently.

"I said, everything will be fine. Didn't you see… the eyes that opened in the dark?"

What!?

Hearing this sentence, everyone was slightly startled. Then it was dark before, and nothing could be seen.

In the boundless darkness, there was only a long gap, slowly opening…

That was an eye.

Pale eyes.
