Chapter 2645 Rob Lucci's Evaluation!
"We can't let them look down on the Chenluo Clan!"
Hua Tuo suddenly unfolded his peacock fan, the fan ribs drawing a cold arc of light in the dim light.
Her voice was low but sharp as a blade.
It creates invisible ripples in a confined space.
"Bai Xiao, Mo Yin, it's up to you two to take command from now on."
Her gaze swept over the two most elite warriors in front of her.
"We need everyone to approve it."
"Yes!"
Bai Xiao and Mo Yin bowed slightly at the same time.
Both of them, like the others, had their faces covered with white cloth.
His exposed eyes gleamed with a hawk-like sharpness in the shadows.
No extra words.
They raised their hands and made a series of complex hand gestures.
The flexion and extension of the fingers conveyed the unique tactical language of the Chenluo clan.
The ten Chenluo warriors around him nodded silently, and then, with a slight movement, they naturally split into two groups, one inside and one outside.
The five people on the outer circle spread out in a fan shape, while the five people on the inner circle gathered around Hua Tuo to protect him.
Their movements were so synchronized that it was as if they were clones of the same person.
Bai Xiao walked over with his sword and reached out to push open the heavy, carved wooden door.
[Squeak—]
The sound of the door hinges turning was instantly drowned out.
A pungent smell, a mixture of metallic rust and a thick, sweet odor, wafted towards me.
This was followed by the crisp sound of weapons clashing and the sticky sound of liquid splashing.
That was a familiar symphony of tearing flesh and blood.
I can already imagine the devastation outside.
The gate was wide open, and a scene came into view.
On the wall at the back of the corridor.
One plant is shaped like a trumpet, with large, blue-white flowers.
A strange plant with emerald green stems but eyes and a mouth.
It emitted a hazy purple light, staining the surroundings with an eerie hue.
Under the purple light, two tall figures stood like monuments.
They are nearly two meters long, with bulging muscles all over their bodies, and their upper half is covered with a jet-black carapace.
The carapace had an oily sheen, like solidified molten asphalt.
The head, with its two extended tentacles, is completely covered in the same material.
Only two narrow slits let out a faint crimson light.
That should be an organ similar to the eye.
Each of them held an exquisite longsword in its hand.
The sword blade was covered in a thick, dark red liquid that slowly dripped down.
Three figures of the Chenluo clan lay limp on the ground beneath his feet.
The white clothes were already mostly stained red, with blood gushing out from various places.
Under the purple light of the moonflower, it formed an ever-expanding dark red puddle.
"Three against two and they still didn't win?"
Bai Xiao's voice was as cold as ice. He immediately made a judgment and issued an order.
"Two people take on one, and the other group clears out the plant."
The instant the order was given.
Six Chenluo warriors, including Bai Xiao himself, attacked together.
There were no shouts, and no footsteps.
They were like sheets of white paper blown by the wind, so light that they defied the laws of physics.
With just a flick of the toes, his body had already floated several meters away.
The sound of the sword being swung in his hand was barely audible.
The Chenluo clan truly lives up to their reputation as natural-born assassins.
The first pair of people approached the cockroach-like figure on the left.
The blade flashed simultaneously from two tricky angles towards the back of the knee and the back of the elbow.
The cockroach-man quickly swung his sword to parry, the longsword clashing heavily with the horizontal blade.
[Clang!]
A spark burst forth in the darkness, illuminating the patterns on the cockroach-like man's carapace.
It also illuminated the faces of Bai Xiao and another Chenluo warrior.
Even in such a tense moment, their eyes remained frighteningly calm.
Almost at the same time.
The other two had already pounced on the moonflower on the wall.
They didn't walk on the ground at all, but instead stepped sideways onto the wall and ran up it as if it were flat ground.
But just as the blades in their hands were about to touch...
With a buzzing sound, the moonflower suddenly trembled violently.
The purple light it emitted seemed to suddenly condense like a heart contracting.
Then, a halo of light suddenly exploded out.
Where it swept, ripples appeared in the air.
A translucent purple energy barrier rapidly formed on itself and on the two cockroach-like figures below it.
"what?!"
A Chenluo warrior's blade slashed at the cockroach-man's barrier.
It was as if he had struck rubber, and was strangely bounced off. His movements were thus slightly slowed down.
And it is this stagnation that is the problem.
The cockroach-like figure in front of him suddenly accelerated his movements, his longsword gleaming with a cold light, drawing a beautiful full-moon arc.
The Chenluo warrior was unable to parry in time, and his sword was sent flying.
But the sword's momentum didn't stop; it sliced across his chest, tearing his white clothes and gushing out a spray of blood.
The cockroach-man on the right wielded his sword with lightning speed, taking the opportunity to ignore the incoming blade.
It pierced through the abdomen of another Chenluo warrior, pinning him firmly to the ground.
The man groaned, the knife slipped from his hand, his body twitched twice, and he lowered his head in resentment.
"hateful!"
A hint of anger finally flashed in Bai Xiao's eyes.
However, he did not act impulsively or immediately change his playing style.
He weaved in and out with another person, constantly dodging the sword flashes of the two cockroach men and avoiding their sharpest attacks.
They kept dragging it on until the barrier on them disappeared.
The moonflower that had been dragged to the wall was dealt with by the two Chenluo warriors.
Then they leaped over to provide support.
It's now!
White Owl suddenly ducked and rolled, passing between the cockroach man's legs, and then swung his arm up as he stood up.
The blade pierced precisely into the gap where the carapace and thigh met.
Black and reddish fluid splattered, and the cockroach-man instinctively let out a wail.
The other cockroach turned around distractedly, exposing its neck.
Three swords simultaneously slash at the same spot from different directions.
The sound of the shell cracking was so crisp it made your teeth ache.
The enormous head rolled off, the headless body swayed, and then crashed to the ground.
The fate of the injured cockroach was already sealed.
He was instantly torn apart by four horizontal swords.
For a moment, the dark corridor fell silent again.
Only the heavy breathing of a few people remained.
Hua Tuo walked to the five corpses of the Chenluo clan and remained silent for a moment.
"Five people have already died just by stepping out the door!"
She murmured under her breath, her face expressionless, her voice filled with shock and resentment.
Bai Xiao mentioned coming over: "But time is passing, Commander, we need to gather more manpower as soon as possible."
"Well, let's go."
Outside the Edo Vegas Casino.
The night sky was as dark as ink, the bright moon shone high, and the stars glittered.
Three figures stood atop a cluster of pure white clouds.
This is an island cloud that Bruno temporarily created using props.
Soft as cotton yet strong enough to bear weight.
Before them, the entire internal structure of the tower unfolded as a holographic projection.
Every floor, every room, every corridor.
Even every corner is clearly visible, and you can zoom in and out freely to observe it at will.
"How about it?"
Kro pushed up his round-framed glasses, the lenses reflecting the fierce battle.
Bruno stood silently, like a statue, carrying the black metal case.
Lu Qi's gaze swept over the Chenluo warriors in the image.
"It has some night vision capability."
"But their hearing is clearly superior, and they have good control over their footsteps."
"Possesses good basic qualities of an assassin."
"Slow and deep breathing, stable emotions, and decisive actions. Skills are acceptable, and agility meets the standard."
After a pause, Lucci continued his evaluation, while the white dove on his shoulder tilted its head and cooed twice.
"His swordsmanship is average, and his individual combat strength is between that of a corporal and a sergeant."
"Although they are not as good as the Yato clan and Dajini, their teamwork is noteworthy."
Lucci looked at the battle scene he had magnified and said:
"There was absolutely no verbal communication; it all relied on subconscious actions."
"This may be the result of long-term training, or it may be a racial talent."
"So?" Kro looked at him with a smile.
"If there is value in training, then the trip was not in vain."
Lucci concluded: "Sending them to Guanhao Island for systematic training to make up for their shortcomings should enable them to quickly become qualified CP members."
Bruno nodded slowly, silently indicating his agreement.
These members of the Chenluo clan seem perfectly suited to be spies and assassins.
The quantity is a bit small.
