Chapter 57: Punching a Missile
"Really, guns?"
Ray turned to the two women.
"You guys stay here. I will take care of them and kill King quickly," he said, his eyes flashing with killing intent.
King must die, no matter what.
This bastard dared to send a sniper to assassinate him.
Ray had always ensured that no threat got near them and had eliminated King and his crew the moment he became aware of the threat.
In this world where law and order had collapsed, Ray knew that King would inevitably let his ambition run wild and commit atrocities.
Ray had confidence in himself.
Previously, he could easily beat King, and now that he had spread his genes to so many women, his Body-strengthening skill, which should have been E-class, might even have power comparable to an S-class skill.
Especially since he had advanced his Body-strengthening skill and his means to survive were terrifying.
Not only had his physique and vitality improved, but the Rejuvenation skill also gave him confidence.
Besides, he had other means as well.
"But I still need to know how advanced he has become," Ray narrowed his eyes.
If King had also advanced his S-class skill to Awakening IV, then Ray wouldn\'t be so confident.
However, in his estimation, King might not have even reached Awakening III because the higher the class of the skill, the more mutation energy is consumed.
Just a B-class skill cost 100 mutation energy to advance from I to II, and the consumption for an S-class skill was naturally several times higher.
One could not use borrowed guns and other cold weapons to fight the undead as well because the mutation energy gained would be ten times less.
Taking all this into consideration, only then did Ray dare to fight; otherwise, he would be a fool to confront the S-class Awakeners.
As all these thoughts flashed in his mind, Ray was rapidly reaching the guards already.
His figure turned blurry, and then he appeared in front of one of the guards, casually crushing his head in an instant.
This didn\'t take much effort, especially considering his strength. But no matter how silent Ray was, the others definitely heard the sound.
"Who are you, you bastard? Raise your hands."
Instantly, they all pointed their guns at Ray with ferocious expressions.
"Oh, here I will raise my hands." Ray raised his hand, completely stunning them.
"Can we play a game here?" He had a smile on his face.
"What game?" one of them asked nervously.
These people weren\'t fools. Ray had almost instantly appeared and killed one of them, so they knew he must definitely be an Awakener.
"Hmph, even if he is an Awakener, in front of Boss he is nothing but a chicken!" The leading guard shouted to all his subordinates and immediately fired the AK-47 in his hand at Ray without listening to any of his playing.
"Welp."
The bullet hit Ray directly in the head.
"He is dead now, see."
The leader sneered, "He is just an ordinary Awakener daring to make himself a hero, especially since the military placed a bounty—"
"Hmm?"
His voice abruptly froze. Ray was still standing, completely fine as if the bullet hadn\'t fazed him at all.
"What were you saying?"
Ray touched his head and looked at the crushed bullet with amused eyes.
"Shoot."
The Leader immediately shouted, and bullets rained on Ray.
"I am going to retreat and tell Master King and Seraphine about this."
The leader shouted before he backed away, running with a nervous expression.
"Damn it, that cowardly man ran away."
"We need to shoot. I don\'t believe that this bastard can remain unfazed by all these bullets…"
For a moment, gunshots almost drowned out the entire surroundings, and then it became silent, eerily silent.
"Did that guy die?"
The leader slightly turned back to look out of curiosity, and the next moment his eyes widened in horror.
All he saw was blood and the corpses of everyone, all of their bodies crushed as if hit by a truck.
"This… this…" his body trembled as his legs grew weak, especially when he heard a deep voice near his ears.
"Hey, where are you going?"
The leader slowly turned his head to look at Ray, who was already in front of him, blocking his path to the base.
"Goodbye."
Ray lightly flicked his head, and the guy\'s world went blank.
"They are too weak, not even a single Awakener?" Ray looked around and then at the gates with a frown.
"They should have already been alerted by now."
As expected, a small missile launched into the sky and converged towards Ray.
"They also have military equipment?" Ray\'s face sank slightly.
He stepped back, pressed his foot into the ground to create momentum, and his muscles stretched to their limits, veins popping as the concrete floor cracked beneath him.
Ray took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
"Let\'s see if I can punch a missile."
He snapped his eyes open and instantly jumped, the ground caving under the pressure.
Ray formed a fist and punched the missile just as they met.
Boom!
A high-pressure wave radiated outward, propelling missile casing and embedded shrapnel.
For a moment, the entire area was obscured by the explosion, with dust rising into the air, making it impossible to see.
"Is... is that guy alive?" the captain, who was hiding and watching the scene, said nervously.
Even the Level two undead Raven had avoided the missile, whether it could take missiles head-on or not was unknown. As for Ray, it was even more uncertain.
"Ray!"
Gina shouted worriedly. She wanted to rush out but was stopped by Melissah.
"He seems to be fine," Melissah said lightly.
As the dust settled, Ray\'s muscular body shone in the sun.
The only problem was that the explosion had caused his entire outfit to be burned away.
"This..."
