At this moment, the red-haired creature was fiercely engaged in a five-person team game, showing no signs of resting. If the opponent had been in a duo, he could have sneaked in and taken them down swiftly without alerting other awakeners, ensuring none could escape.
However, with a team of five, any approach would surely be detected by those inside. Facing combat-type ability users meant a fight was inevitable. Although he was confident in his ability to win, it would undoubtedly alert other awakeners. For a moment, Noah found himself in a dilemma.
But then, spotting the bloodthirsty bats flying overhead, his eyes lit up. He immediately jumped onto the rooftop, spreading his arms towards the swarm of bats. "Come here, I've got something tasty for you." The bats quickly noticed Noah and dived towards him like lightning, only to become trapped in the massive electric net he had prepared.
Noah precisely controlled the voltage to fry the bats' neural circuits without leaving any visible damage. He then took out some wire from the spatial expanse, tied it to the bats' wings, and manipulated the wires to mimic the bats' flight. Leading a small group of bat puppets back to the balcony, he scattered dozens of steel nails on the ground and quietly hid in the shadows.
Under the control of the wires, the bats fluttered their wings, constantly crashing against the window. The noise from the group inside gradually ceased, and the red-haired creature, cursing under his breath, came to open the window. "You damn rodents, daring to ruin my fun, damn it," he said, opening his mouth to emit a scorching flame. The bats were instantly turned to ash under the blaze, and even the wires melted into molten iron.
"Just then, the red-haired monster did not notice that, not far under his feet, dozens of steel nails quietly stood up, among which a few stealthily slipped into the room, while the rest pointed their tips directly at him.
"Now is the moment."
Noah turned into a shadow and darted out from the darkness, his arm transforming into an iron fist and smashing down towards the red-haired monster.
The red-haired monster, worthy of being an A-class Awakener with extremely sensitive smell, narrowly dodged the lethal blow by sidestepping.
"You're looking for death."
Attacked by surprise, the red-haired monster immediately became furious and spat a mouthful of fierce flames towards Noah.
Noah, prepared in advance, ducked to avoid the flames and launched a powerful punch.
The red-haired monster's fists ignited with flames, meeting Noah's punch head-on.
The two fists collided, emitting a dull thud.
Despite the strength augmentation, Noah"s iron arm failed to push back the red-haired monster.
The exchange ended in a draw.
This is the wonderful use of A-class fire-type abilities.
The flames surging from the red-haired monster"s fists formed several small fiery cyclones on his fists, enhancing the lethality while multiplying the defensive power several times. It seems this red-haired monster is very skilled in manipulating his abilities, with a high proficiency level.
"Ha-ha, bastard, you think you can kill me? You're still too green," the red-haired monster laughed arrogantly.
Noah smiled slightly.
"You're already dead, my friend. Remember to watch your feet when you fight in your next life."
All of this was within Noah"s expectations.
If he could be KO'd with a single punch, he wouldn't be worthy of being called an A-class ability user.
At that moment, several steel nails on the ground shot towards the red-haired monster at high speed.
Caught by surprise, the red-haired monster quickly retreated, spewing a mouthful of flame to melt the steel into molten iron.
But before he could catch his breath, a massive electric current instantly swept through his body.
The flickering electric light numbed the red-haired monster's body, and he was momentarily immobilized as several steel wires shot towards him, binding the red-haired monster."
"The red-haired monster, losing his balance, fell directly to the ground. He cried out in agony, opening his mouth to spit out flames once more.
Just then, Noah closed in, pulling out a palm-length steel nail and piercing it from below upwards through the red-haired monster's lower jaw, passing straight through the tongue and upper jaw, effectively nailing the monster's mouth shut.
"Hand it over!"
[Lootable object detected]
[Please choose the direction of plunder]
"Copy ability, strip ability, plunder wealth"
[Ability copy successful, ability gained: Fire Power A]
[Ability stripping successful, ability to be gifted: Fire Power A]
[Wealth plunder successful, wealth points acquired: 200,000]
With his goal achieved, Noah released the steel nail, which, under the control of his mind, exited through the top of the red-haired monster's jaw.
The red-haired monster, deceased.
Getting up and dusting off his hands, he then walked towards the inside of the house.
By this time, several women inside had already fallen to the ground, each with a steel nail in their throat, dead beyond doubt. In that instant Noah made his move, he had controlled the steel nails to fly into the room, taking care of these women who could have screamed and served as alarm bells.
However, there was still one woman left, her mouth bound by wire.
Noah sat down on the couch, bending over to look at the woman.
"Now, you answer whatever I ask. Make one wrong sound, and you'll join your sisters."
The woman, tearful and panicked, nodded hurriedly.
Noah waved his hand, freeing the woman from her binds.
"The red-haired individual I just killed, who was he? What was his rank here?"
"He... His name is Hou Chi, nicknamed Monkey Three. He was the third in command on the island," the woman replied without hesitation.
"How many leaders are there on the island in total?"
"Three... three."
"Tell me about them."
"I'll tell, I'll tell. The second in command is Huang Shahe, and the leader is Zhu Tiehu. Both the leader and the second in command were originally prisoners in Black Mountain Prison. After the disaster broke out, they led a rebellion and escaped, then came here. The third in command joined later."
"What are the abilities of the leader and the second in command?"
"I... I don't know."
"Really?" Noah"s brow furrowed slightly.
"Really, please don't kill me, I've told you everything I know," the woman pleaded on her knees.
"Oh, I heard that all those earthen walls on the island were built by the second in command alone, and it was done in just one day."
Hearing the woman's words, Noah was slightly surprised.
The island was about the size of more than a dozen football fields. For one person to build walls several meters high around the entire island in just one day was a bit exaggerated.
What do you call a construction demon?
"That's interesting. And the leader? Aren't there any rumors about him?"
"I have never seen the leader myself, but I've heard from others in private that the leader likes to eat... eat people, and needs to eat every day...
