Unspeakable bubbles

As soon as the thought of killing arose, just as Nakamura was about to make his move, an overwhelming fear inexplicably welled up from the bottom of his heart.

When it came to its senses, it had already slipped back to its office.

"What the hell?!"

Chapter 71, Section 071: The Item-Based Powerhouse

It's one thing for a bear monster to act up on my territory, but why should I be afraid of that seemingly weak guy!

Nakamura tried several more times, but each time the result was the same.

The other survivors weren't inexplicably afraid like I was, but... the survivors couldn't beat that bully.

Nakamura was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

Just as the situation reached a stalemate, a new character entered the battlefield.

"Indeed, it is a masterpiece of the Apocalyptic Esoteric Buddhism."

As soon as Maekawa Kazuto stepped into the school, he sensed the eeriness of the mist, but fortunately, he was prepared.

He took out the special glasses from his pocket and put them on; the scenery in front of him quickly became clear.

They hadn't walked far when they stopped.

Before him lay a scene of mangled limbs and foul-smelling, purplish-red blood. A survivor, missing half his body, was still struggling. The sight was like a living hell.

He Ren's face immediately darkened, especially when he saw the school uniform of the survivor, which made him look even more sorrowful.

"Why on earth did this happen?!"

As a high-ranking member of the Seven Rings Tower, He Ren had seen dead people before.

But this horrific scene was beyond his tolerance.

He took out a drop of high-purity holy water from the treasure chest, and the struggling survivor turned into black smoke.

"I will definitely avenge you and all of you. Rest in peace."

The moment the survivor disappeared, Nakamura in the office suddenly looked up.

"Someone has broken in?"

After pondering the last image transmitted by the resurrected person, Nakamura didn't take it too seriously.

The arrival of an army is another matter, but what about a single human being?

"Eliminate him!" Nakamura sent the message to his resurrected subordinates and then refocused his attention on Bubble.

Should we launch a general offensive?

If they can't handle that little girl, at least they can take down Yuko.

Nakamura has high expectations for Ikuko's combat power after her transformation.

However, if he doesn't participate, he's not entirely confident he can capture Yuko alive.

He personally took to the stage... Nakamura was genuinely afraid of that little girl.

Hmm, or should we try a different approach and deal with the bear monster first?

but!

Nakamura wasn't 100% confident in facing it either.

With his own awakened targeted atomization ability, and the addition of a group of survivors, it is theoretically possible to suppress it.

In reality, Nakamura had no idea what would happen.

It's a tough situation, with both sides presenting a dilemma.

In the current situation, the forces of the three parties are generally in balance. Once this fragile balance is broken, Nakamura has no idea how things will develop.

It's certainly gratifying to win a great victory, but if you lose... you lose everything.

Nakamura's character flaws are exposed at this moment; even as a monster, he still sways back and forth, displaying his cowardly and self-destructive nature.

He soon no longer needed to worry about the next step; the information from the Resurrected surprised him greatly.

"Requesting reinforcements."

"The enemy is strong."

"The defense line collapsed"

"Metal sheet, flying."

After hurriedly connecting with one of the survivors, Nakamura finally understood what was going on.

Four long, thin metal plates flew around the man; they were incredibly sharp, and any survivor who was hit by one would have their arms or legs severed.

If you're unlucky, a single blow to the forehead can be fatal.

A group of survivors surrounded the man, but none of them dared to rush forward.

Nakamura frowned. He was pleased that the resurrected ones had regained their intelligence and were able to carry out his orders better.

However, with the development of intelligence, emotions such as fear and apprehension also arise.

Just like now, with so many survivors rushing in, some of them are bound to break through the defenses, but those guys just don't dare to charge forward.

After pondering for a moment, Nakamura decided to repeat his old trick.

First, let this human face off against the bear monster, then you can win without lifting a finger.

Excellent, perfect plan, let's do it!

Under Nakamura's manipulation, the resurrected fought and retreated, and sure enough, the human was lured to the bear monster's hideout without any knowledge of what was happening.

"Roar!!!"

Seeing the menacing figure nearly three meters away, Maekawa Kazuto was not alarmed but rather delighted.

"Finally found you, prepare to die!"

Kazuto Maekawa bit his finger and smeared it on the four paper figures he had prepared beforehand. Then he threw the paper figures at the bear monster.

The four paper figures grew taller in the wind, instantly transforming into four strong puppets about two meters tall.

At this moment, the four puppets simultaneously stretched out their hands, and the metal pieces flew towards them under the control of the puppeteers.

Armed with weapons, the four puppets strode toward the bear monster.

Relying on its thick hide, the bear monster stretched out its claws to withstand the blow, and a deep bloody gash immediately appeared on its palm.

The pain fueled its ferocity; the bear monster refused to back down, exchanging blows with the four puppets as they fought each other.

"Physical strength and defense are both at a standard B-level, and... recovery ability."

Kazuto Maekawa carefully observed the enemy and noticed that the cuts on its body had begun to heal.

He quickly assigned a "B+" rating to the chaotic creature.

"Thank goodness I came by myself."

He felt somewhat fortunate; if his colleagues from the Fourth Ring Road had taken over this mysterious case, the outcome probably wouldn't have been good when they encountered the monster.

B+ level chaotic creatures can only be dealt with by elites in the fourth ring or higher-level powerhouses.

Maekawa Kazuto remained unperturbed as he watched his puppets being smashed to pieces by the bear monster.

He pulled out a scarecrow, a red nail, and a hammer from his treasure chest.

With a wave of his hand, a thin metal sheet flew back into his hand.

"There is."

They took a few black hairs from the thin metal sheet and tied them around the scarecrow in a knot.

With a single blow, the bear-like monster tore the last puppet in two and glared menacingly at the humans.

The man picked up a hammer and drove a red nail into the scarecrow's heart.

"Boom"

The bear monster suddenly stopped, its bear face showing a look of astonishment.

Looking down, the place where the heart used to be had become an empty cavity.

With an incredulous swing of its paw, the bear monster's massive body crashed to the ground.

As the bear monster fell, flames erupted from the scarecrow, and it was soon reduced to ashes.

They retrieved the nails and hammerhead, whose colors had faded considerably, and waited for the fog to dissipate.

But one minute, two minutes... five minutes passed, and everything around me remained the same.

"It's not the origin of this incident!" Kazuto Maekawa was also shocked.

The fact that the fog hasn't lifted means the culprit is still alive.

Generally speaking, the monsters that originate from the source are the strongest.

In other words... the real challenge is yet to come.

"How could an A-rank monster possibly appear in a mere fog incident within the academy's territory!" Kazuto Maekawa's expression turned extremely grave.

For a moment, he almost considered going back to the Seventh Ring Tower to seek reinforcements.

But when he thought of the horrific scene he had witnessed before, and saw the determination flash in people's eyes, he realized that...

"Looks like we'll have to fight tooth and nail this time."

Section 72, Chapter 072: A Not-So-Great Enemy

"That guy's really done for?"

As Nakamura sensed the bear monster's life signs completely dissipate in the misty area, his heart sank.

Since the enemy can defeat the bear monster in a short time, then we...
