The End Of Life - Chapter 166
Kevin smiled hearing him and only gave him a nod as he took the help of the AK to stand up and look around him. Everyone who had his eyes on him was now taking a few steps back. He looked ahead and only hoped Mark would be fine facing off two monsters.
Giving a clear warning to the mob who was aiming for his friend downstairs, Mark turned towards the ape who was about a few feet away from him. Kane no longer had an astonished face but instead a deadpan one. His subordinate who he had confidence in, was crushed and the proof was right at his feet.
“Ugh, my hand, you fuck. I’m going to kill you.” A shrill voice came from Mark’s back and he didn’t even need to turn to know who it was. The man’s eyes were already red as he stared at the severed arm. The sword was too unexpected and he couldn’t even react to it.
Pushing himself forward with all he got, he lounged at Mark aiming for his head. Mark didn’t even look back as he side-stepped before giving him another kick in the same direction once again. But this time the man was way more alert than before and could cross his arms, waiting for the impact. He took a few steps back and looked at him again.
“Boy, you really are daring. Let me show you what real strength is.” Howled the ape-man, Kane as he rushed towards him. His subordinate didn’t wait for any signal as he rushed from behind making it a pincer attack. The building shook as Kane ran towards him but Mark couldn’t help but have a sharp grin on his face.
“I’m glad I didn’t die that day. This is what I was missing.” He couldn’t help but exclaim.
Mark reacted quickly as the danger behind was quicker than Kane and turned around as quickly as he could, giving out the smoothest sword slice he ever made. Before the man could even react, the sword was already at his neck going through it and slicing off the head, clean. Blood sprayed over Mark’s face as the man still had a surprised expression as his head rolled.
Mark couldn’t stop there as Kane was already behind him. Turning around as he had his arms crossed with his sword in front of him, a powerful force hit and blasted him to the end of the corridor. Bones cracked as Mark hit the already cracked wall and slid down with blood dripping down his lips. Forcefully pushing the blood in his mouth down the throat, he looked up at Kane.
“You actually dare to kill my subordinate. I’ll break every bone in your body.” The ape-man said in fury as he rushed towards him once again. Mark noticed there was not even a single cut on Kane’s fur after how he charged at his sword.
Not willing to take another hit from him, Mark rolled away with all he got making Kane blast through the wall and jump below. Wiping the blood on his lips, Mark stood up and noticed the broken wall and Kane looking at him from below.
Clutching the sword tighter, Mark jumped right at the large ape aiming to get a clean strike. Kane reacted by sending another strong punch at him, trying to finish it off. But contrary to his expectations, Mark kept the sword back and took out the gun instead before aiming for the eye.
‘No matter how strong your skin might be, your eye would still be one of the most vulnerable parts. Die idiot.’ before shooting right at the left eye.
As he thought, the bullet was indeed effective and pierced right through the eyeball making Kane clutch his head in pain. Mark simply landed safely and stood in front of him, as Kane dropped on his knees, clutching his head as blood died the brown fur.
He didn’t wait for long before shooting the right eye too, making Kane fall completely while his body was still twitching like crazy. Seeing the massive body fall, Mark finally exhaled in relief.
‘This mission was way harder than expected. The mutations are too different depending on person to person.’ clutching his arms in pain.
‘Bones are guaranteed to be broken by that monstrous hit. I hope the energy inside me can heal this too.’ he thought and looked at the entrance of the building.
His warning was completely discarded and the mob had started attacking Kevin. He could see Kevin taking cover behind a jeep while 15 people were shooting at him from various directions, not giving him a chance to retaliate. There were also a few bullet holes but none in major areas making him relieved once again.
Mark immediately took action after seeing Kevin’ miserable state. Taking out the other gun, he ran towards the mob and started firing like a crazy person from behind. The mob immediately noticed this and turned around to see a bloodied Mark running at them and their boss’s twitching body behind him.
Mark’s accuracy decreased by a very huge margin after a long fight and broken hands but it was still enough to relieve a bit of the stress on Kevin. Both attacked from opposite sides, confusing the mob. The mob was shocked to see the boss they feared so much the past month, fallen with blood everywhere and now they were like chickens waiting to get slaughtered.
Facing the bullets from both sides, it didn’t take them long to start running for their lives. Mark didn’t go after them but simply took down the few who remained and went to his friend. Kevin who was already on thw ground, leaning on the jeep for support with he AK beside him. He already had a few broken bones and now coupled with the bullet holes, his condition was not at its best to say the least.
“Man, you’re finally here. Looks like the ape took a lot out of you. It’s been a while since I saw you so miserable, ugh.” Chuckled Kevin seeing Mark’s appearance before grunting in pain.
