Universe Infinite Canteen

Chapter 127 Signal



"That's right. The daughter of the strongest hunter the Giant Curtain has ever seen, Li, is a disgrace, your very existence is the greatest disgrace to Li."

Guli grew angrier as he spoke, "I gave you chances, hinted more than once that you should stop being a hunter, with your abilities you'd only become a burden to the hunting group. Why, why won't you just give up your hunter identity?"

"Boggy's Twin Sunflower Hunting Group is doing better now than your Harpist Hunting Group, what right do you have to say that?" Mai Mai said.

With a snort, Guli replied, "You might fool others, but I know exactly how much she weighs. Twin Sunflower's success relies solely on that foreigner called Ma Lu, as for you..."

He then turned to Boggy, "Still the same as before, with no improvement, always relying on others' protection to fight, you don't deserve to be a hunter."

On hearing this, Boggy clenched her fists tightly, "If... if I'm willing to give up being a hunter, would you let the others go?"

"Too late." Guli shook his head, "I regret it, but it's too late to turn back now. Don't worry, though, I won't personally lay a hand on you, you're still his daughter after all."

As he spoke, he pulled out six steel rebars from the rubble, planning to bind both Boggy and Mai Mai's hands and feet.

However, Boggy rolled on the spot, dodging the rebars as if she had eyes on her back.

At the same time, Little Grey also pounced toward Guli.

Unfazed, Guli kicked Little Grey away, "I've said it before, nobody knows your strength better than I do, you're not my match, so why bother struggling futilely?"

Boggy got up and tightened her grip on the mechanical spear, "If I gave up that easily, I wouldn't still be a hunter by now."

Guli was evidently infuriated by her words and snorted, "It seems the lesson you received wasn't enough."

As he clenched his fist, the rebars, previously slithering slowly like snakes, abruptly accelerated, striking towards Boggy's limbs like four arrows!

At the critical moment, Boggy remained calmer than ever, flicking away one rebar with her mechanical spear, then sidestepping two others. But no matter what, she couldn't dodge the last one.

Moreover, her move, which had been meant to avoid the rebar aimed at her right hand, now directed it towards her lower abdomen.

Guli did not hold back this time, ready to teach Boggy a memorable lesson as promised, but just then, an alarm bell went off in his mind!

Years of combat experience as a hunter saved him, Guli abandoned his attack and swiftly retreated backward.

Then something smashed down from the air with force, landing where he had been standing a moment before.

The ground shook, and once the dust settled, Guli's pupils shrank sharply!

Because he realized that what had caused that terrifying disturbance was not some powerful beast but a person. And the ground beneath that person's feet had cracked, with fissures spreading in all directions.

"I received your signal."

Ma Lu smiled at Boggy, but his eyes lost their mirth when they landed on Sadie, especially on Mai Mai.

He then turned to Guli, "Aren't you the leader of the Harpist Hunting Group, what's going on?"

"Deputy leader, I knew you were still alive!" Mai Mai said excitedly, "Be careful, he's the one who hired Black Horn to set up an ambush on us!"

"Oh ho, did I miss out on so much just by being absent for a little while? Even the final boss has shown up."

Ma Lu had the feeling of having skipped over important plot points by skimming too much of a game.

Seeing that the three from Twin Sunflower were safe let him breathe a sigh of relief, but then he remembered something, wait, why is there one person missing?

Ma Lu looked again at Guli, his face showing a killing intent, "Did you kill Seta?"

Guli was somewhat puzzled, but what he found even more baffling was another matter, he said gravely, "How did you manage to find this place?"

"The signal, didn't I just mention it?"

"What signal?"

"Fury Wings." This time, Boggy replied, "That jetpack, Ma Lu is familiar with it too."

"So you did it on purpose earlier," Guli was somewhat surprised, "you intentionally broke the strap of the backpack?"

Boggy nodded, "Only by flying high enough is there a chance to be seen." She paused, then said to Ma Lu, "But I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly, were you nearby?"

"Not exactly, I was still five streets away when I saw the Fury Wings," Ma Lu said, "I ran all the way here."

"Boasting," Guli doubted, "how could you get here so fast from five streets away, considering the number of wild beasts on the road?"

"Nowadays, those guys run faster than the other whenever they see me," Ma Lu raised his eyebrows, "after all, most of their leaders have already been taken care of by me."

Guli didn't want to engage in such a pointless verbal dispute.

He had once witnessed the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group's battle with the adult Earth Dragon, and he dreaded Ma Lu's strength, so he warned, "You better drop your weapon and surrender, or else..."

"Or else what?" Ma Lu curiously asked.

"Or else the lives of your team members can't be guaranteed." In the middle of Guli's speech, two iron rods were already pressed against the necks of Sadie and Mai Mai.

However, Ma Lu didn't show any signs of anxiety or anger; instead, he shrugged, "It seems you know nothing about my current power."

Unmoved, Guli said, "I'll count to three..."

No sooner had he uttered the word "count," than Ma Lu had vanished from his spot, so fast that Guli didn't even have the chance to use his psychic powers.

The next moment, Ma Lu's fist had already smashed into his face.

With the power of King's Fist bolstering the strike, Ma Lu unleashed a terrifying 2946% of his strength.

Guli's head, like a watermelon falling from a great height, exploded instantaneously!

Blood and bits of flesh splattered out for over thirty meters, staining the nearby road red.

"This punch is for Seta!"

Ma Lu enunciated every word clearly.

"Seta is okay," Mai Mai explained, "That is not to say he is completely fine; he got injured while carrying out a guild mission and is now lying in the underground hospital, which is why he didn't come."

"Ah, is that so?"

Ma Lu then looked again towards where Guli had been, whose head was already gone.

Mai Mai, on the other hand, let out another cheer, "But true to form for our vice-captain, just one move ended the fight and saved us!"

Ma Lu walked over to Mai Mai, helped her pull out the iron rod embedded in her body, then shook her hand and pulled her into the team. After that, he caught two Spiked Leg Tailless Scorpions from the next street, brought them to her, and let her kill them to recover her health.

The bleeding holes on the backs of Mai Mai's hands and feet healed quickly, making her eyes widen in astonishment.

Meanwhile, Boggy also rescued Sadie. Ma Lu asked, "What are your plans now? Do you plan to continue hunting, or will you go back underground?"

"We can't go back yet." Boggy shook her head, "We are searching for a mysterious creature that produces red sand. Without dealing with it, this beast horde will never end, but we don't know where it is right now."

"Red sand?" Ma Lu stroked his chin, "I think I've seen it somewhere before."
