Plundering in the Apocalypse
Chapter 139 Lu Cao!

A sea of purple-black flames. Covering the whole school ground. The dead bodies are burned and reduced to ashes with a single touch of intensive flames. The bloodied ground was burning like gasoline was poured everywhere. While watching this scene a black-haired young man was standing there watching everything.

If looked closely there was no hint of emotion in his expression. If it was before he might have felt guilt but not now. In the last month, he had not only seen physical changes in himself, but also his mentality.

But this scene of dead bodies burning in Hell Fire made him a headache. For some reason, he felt he had seen this scene countless times before but had no idea when.

This person was none other than Shin Wolner.

This was the first time he had tried Purple Lightning (SS) on his enemies. He felt pretty content.

'Sure enough, just practicing, and actually using abilities in a fight is vastly different.' Shin thought inwardly.

He was somewhat annoyed by the notifications so he turned the reward notification off for now.

Before burning their bodies he had already scanned them using his Magic Eyes and they didn't have anything valuable with them.

But by the time those bodies were reduced to nothing more enemies approached Shin. Yes, surprisingly even ashes weren't left under the intense power of Hell Fire (S).

"There's only one enemy?"

An unsure voice sounded from a little far.

Shin noticed that beardy from earlier did his job smoothly and brought more people.

There was even a man whose temperament was somewhat different from others.

"Yes." The Beardy replied.

"Good good. You not only dare to intrude on our base but also killed our people. Don't even think about going out of there alive. I, Lu Cao, won't forgive you. You will die by my punches once I use my Stone Body." The person with the unusual temperament introduced himself while cursing Shin.

Shin finally showed some reaction to him. Not because he was afraid or anything. But, because he didn't even need to use his Magic Eyes on him and this person explained everything himself.

'So his power is Stone Body. Huh.' Shin thought while controlling his expression.

Others who flooded after him were also very angry. They had heard from Raza (beardy) how their men were being killed by some intruder. They were extremely angry.

"How dare he intrude here?"

"He killed our brothers. We can't let him off."

"He should be tortured."

"Yeah, no easy death for him."

"See poor brother Raza (beardy). He is so shocked by the loss of our brothers that he can't even speak properly."

"See his expression. Those lifeless eyes, he looks like a zombie."

"We have to kill this intruder for the sake of brother Raza and all the brothers who died."

Everyone was cursing Shin before arriving here. They felt pity for Raza (beardy), but no one assumed that something was wrong. Everyone thought that he must be traumatized.

So no matter how powerful they were, they were indeed cautious of Shin. So they couldn't be careless and decided to deal with him together.

After all no matter how strong he is. He can't possibly take on 100 people. They already knew his ability was related to thunder. So they won't attack carelessly. But in the face of danger, they couldn't keep their thoughts. They just want to kill Shin.

"EVERYONE STOP!!" A loud voice sounded. Everyone subconsciously turned to look at the source of the voice.

"Brother Zack."

"Why are you stopping us brother? That Basta*d had killed our fellow brothers. We have to take revenge."

"Yeah, we have a kill him."

"Yeah."

Everyone started showing their displeasure. For some reason, Shin wasn't making any move. He just then discuss whatever they want as he stood silently.

"ENOUGH!!" Zack shouted.

"Can't you understand? His abilities are related to lightning. That means he will be at more advantage if we attack together in the open. We can't let him have an upper hand." Zack had heard from Raza and he had already heard the sound of thunder. So he was certain the operant had lightning abilities. He didn't know the rank. But it was very powerful. So in no way, he can let Shin have the terrain advantage.

Everyone seemed to nod their heads in agreement when they heard Zack's words. They were impatient. In anger, they almost fell into the trap laid by the enemy. If not for their brother Zack. It would have ended up in his hands.

"Brother Zack is right."

"Brother Zack, let me, Lu Cao, go deal with him. My ability's element is counter to his ability. With my stone body, u would be immune to his lightning attacks." Although Lu Cao was extremely arrogant. He also understood the situation and stopped to listen to Zack before attacking.

Others also agreed with him in this stance. After Zack's words, they were able to think clearly and not attack Shin rashly. Otherwise, things would have been difficult.

The reason why Shin didn't bother attacking now was. He was stalling for time. Shin had made such a majestic entrance and attracted everyone's attention because he wanted everyone to focus on him. During that time Alice would rescue the hostages.

He sighed.

'If there weren't any hostages. I would have burned them together with the whole school to the ground.'

Shin noticed that before everyone was about to attack him together. He also felt grateful bow that he can deal with them together. But because of one person's words, they changed their minds.

Zack felt something was very wrong with Shin. His senses were extremely developed than others. He could feel that this person was dangerous. But even so, there was no escape for him. He had to confront this intruder no matter what.

But what made him even more confused was where were the bodies. Right, before they could arrive Shin had already burned all the bodies to nothing. His Hell Fire was extremely strong after all.

Before he could think more Lu Cao had already made his move. He can't be patient anymore. He just wanted to crush Shin's neck and sever his body into pieces.

"You bastard, You will die at my hands today." Lu Cao shouted as he was running toward Shin.

His surroundings started to change and his body got covered with stones from everywhere. He looked like a stone golem. There were no words to describe him. But he certainly didn't look like a human.

Behind him, 6 more activated their abilities. They also had earth element's power. So they didn't hesitate to aid Lu Cao in strengthening his Stone Armour.

With the sudden increase in strength Lu Cao was extremely confident in himself. After all, Shin had Lightning element powers which are useless in front of him. Also from what he can guess Shin should have focused all his stats on Mana if he can use his ability continuously. So his physical stats must be very weak. His made him even more confident in dealing with Shin. He felt he was the perfect opponent.

Shin didn't think much of the incoming attack. But soon he heard a voice inside his head and a smile formed on his face.

[Darling, All the Hostages are rescued. You can let loose now.]

*Boom*

Shin immediately grabbed the incoming fist.

Everyone was shocked.

"N-No way."

"Oh yes," Shin said while smiling as he gripped Lu Cao's wrist and slammed him onto the ground. Some of the stones covering his body were shattered.

*Cough*

"What... is.. going on?" Lu Cao felt pain. He was shocked.

Everyone was speechless. Shin had only used his pure strength to subdue him. No abilities, No skills. Only pure strength.

'This is the power of 200 strength.' Shin thought inside his mind.

Shin checked Lu Cao's status.

[Lu Cao]

[Level - 41]

[Age - 27]

[Special ability - Stone Body (C)]

[Trait - Airhead, Courageous.]

Shin scoffed. "Only with this much you want to fight me? Dream on."

Without waiting for their response. Shin activated his abilities and skills.

'Extreme speed, Purple Lightning, Gravity control, Razor Slash.'

A lot of mana was being circulated and used. Shin had a crazed smile on his face. 'Now that there are no hostages.'

"I won't hold back anymore. Today this whole organization will be finished."
