Chapter 156: The Target Of The Dark Sectors

Chapter 156 The Target Of The Dark Sectors

Sharp took a few leaps and was soon at the harbor. He dashed underneath the Golden Eagle where his people were and threw Biggie on the ground.

Biggie’s eyes were closed, and he was still lost in consciousness. Sharp did not bother putting a restraining device on him because he knew Gu Ding could unlock the device in a matter of seconds.

Sharp looked off into the distance after he was finished with Biggie. Two figures were speeding toward him. It was Robert and Liliath, who were on the back of a combat robot.

It was not long before they were by Gu Ding’s side. Liliath looked worriedly at Biggie, who was lying on the ground.

“You’ve finally caught up. That means everyone is here,” Sharp finally spoke. He seemed to have been aware that the two had been following him, but it did not bother him much.

“Biggie has lost the fight. That means you no longer have any leverage over Emily and me. There’s no point in you continuing to defy us.”

Gu Ding moved a step forward and his gaze fell onto Sharp. “I want to make a bet with Emily. If I win, you return Biggie to us and the Golden Eagle will belong to us as well.”

Sharp gave Emily an astonished look when he heard Gu Ding’s words. He had no idea why Emily would agree to such a ridiculous bet.

Emily nodded and walked to his side. She whispered a few words into his ears and Sharp nodded, turning toward Gu Ding. “Even though I personally do not condone bets of this nature, an agreement has already been reached between the two of you. There’s no use in me interfering with this. However, if you end up losing, I hope you keep your promise.” Sharp might be leaving the Army, but he still wished to see the Army strengthen further. After all, he had spent more than twenty years with the Army, and it would be impossible not to be concerned for them. Besides that, the most important factor in him not stopping the bet was because he knew there was no chance of Gu Ding winning.

Just as Gu Ding was about to make his move, Sharp and Emily suddenly turned sharply in the direction of the harbor, looking alert and wary.

Gu Ding turned to look as well. A large, long warship that was totally black slowly descended from the sky. The large warship was obviously a grade higher than the Golden Eagle.

“The battleship Calamity…” It took one look for Gu Ding to recognize the type of spaceship this warship was. Even the Army in Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation was not qualified to own such a specimen. Only cosmic nations of three stars and above would own one.

Calamity slowly descended upon the harbor of Great Divinity. When the spaceship had anchored safely, the hatch door opened, and two figures slowly emerged from the inside.

Both figures were dressed in a peculiar, long black robe, which covered their entire bodies. A wide hat covered their heads, making it difficult to see their faces clearly despite it being noontime.

They walked one after the other toward everyone on the battlefield. The figure in front had a slightly rickety physique and looked to be slightly older. The one behind stood a little to the right. He had a rather huge physique. Even though he was not as large as Biggie, he was still over two meters tall and had a muscular build.

“The Army is rather ineffective in their work. Do you need our help getting rid of these Interstellar Pirates?” The black-robed figure at the front finally spoke. His voice sounded scratchy and dull, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.

“I hadn’t expected anyone from the Dark Sectors would want to visit a 2-star Cosmic Nation such as ours. Is there anything I can help both of you with?” From the look in Sharp’s eyes, it was apparent that he was on high alert as he had just identified both figures. There was a blood-red logo of a demon on the chest of their long robes. That was the mark of the Dark Sectors.

The expression on everyone’s face, including Gu Ding, changed the moment Sharp revealed their identities.

The Dark Sectors was the most powerful assassin organization within the Cosmic Seas. The first basic condition for joining the organization was that the person had to at least be a Rank 11 Gene Body.

Every mission consisted of a team made of two members. One would be the lead while the other was known as a shadow who assisted with the mission. The team of two would usually work together on a permanent basis. There would be the occasional last-minute change in team members for missions, but these situations were few and far between.

Something big was bound to happen every time someone from the Dark Sectors appeared. Hiring an individual from the Dark Sectors would cost a minimum of 100 million Universe Credits. Anything above 100 million Universe Credits would be enough for assassinating an Army general from a 2-star Cosmic Nation.

“Aren’t you an Army general? You should know better than anyone that the Dark Sectors never reveal their mission before completing it.” The man in the black robe laughed sinisterly with a tinge of sarcasm in his tone. He looked Sharp and Emily over, and then turned to look at Biggie on the ground. However, his gaze did not stay too long on the three of them as he quickly turned toward Gu Ding in his black mech.

“You’re Gu Ding, aren’t you? I looked up your information on the Skynet before coming, and I know quite a bit about your antics, including the video clip of what had just happened at this harbor. I truly admire your character,” the tone at which the man spoke gave Gu Ding a feeling that something bad was about to happen.

“However, admiration is just admiration. Our mission must continue…” As expected, the words from the man in the black robe were not just a friendly compliment. There was no need for friendliness in the Dark Sectors.

The man in the black robe suddenly pointed a finger. “Give us that girl. If you comply, no harm will come to anyone here. If you resist, there will be terrible consequences…”

Liliath shuddered in terror. She had a vague feeling that they were here for her the moment she saw them walked out the hatch. “I won’t let you!” Gu Ding stepped in from the side as he reached out to shield Liliath behind him.

“Liliath is on my crew. If you want her, you’ll need to do it over my dead body.”

The man in the black robe had expected this. “Just as I thought… Although, the decision is not up to you.”

He moved in a flash and appeared in front of Gu Ding’s black mech without warning. He smiled savagely at Gu Ding in the mech. He held on to the mech’s arm with one hand and flung Gu Ding, sending him flying. Next, he clasped Liliath on the shoulders and carried her away as he returned to the side of the other man in the black robe.

When Gu Ding got up from the ground and saw them taking Liliath away, he charged madly toward them. The larger man in the black robe reached out with a finger and a golden beam of energy came shooting out from his fingertip, and the head of Gu Ding’s black mech cracked in the sudden explosion.

The indestructible black mech was broken so swiftly. The mech’s head was destroyed and the mech’s hatch was not working properly due to the damaged circuit boards. Gu Ding wriggled out of the mech through the wrecked head and was covered with dozens of cuts on his body from the shrapnel caused by the explosion. His wounds might have healed instantly, but Gu Ding’s body was still drenched in fresh blood.

Vd

He was breathing heavily as he forced himself out of the mech. His eyes were red with rage as he looked toward the two men.

“Keep this up and the mech’s head won’t be the only thing exploding,” the larger man finally said. His soulless eyes were as cold as metal.

The larger man shielded the rickety old man behind him, and the old man performed a karate chop on Liliath’s neck. Liliath fell unconscious and collapsed and he laid her flat on the ground. A black fingernail extended from one of his fingers as he inserted it between Liliath’s eyebrows.

Gu Ding could no longer hold himself back upon witnessing this scene.

“Gu Ding, don’t be brash. You’ll get yourself killed! We’ll think of some other way!” Neptune quickly tried to talk him out of it. It had immediately analyzed from the attack that the larger man, who was the shadow, was a Rank 12 Gene Body. This meant that the lead, who was the rickety old man, had to be above a Rank 12 Gene Body. Gu Ding would immediately be killed if he went head-to-head with someone so powerful. He had been able to go up against Emily because of the mech. Now that the mech was destroyed, Gu Ding was but a Rank 3 Gene Body. As for his ability of Absolute Seal, it could only be used after half a month. Besides, even if he did manage to seal one of them, the other would still be powerful enough to kill everyone on this harbor.

At this moment, Robert appeared at Gu Ding’s side as well. “Gu Ding, calm down. I have a plan! I’ve just communicated with Neptune in a different communication mode, and we think this might work.”

Right then, the black Calamity suddenly yet slowly ascended into the sky.

The two black-robed members from the Dark Sectors were taken aback as they looked up toward the spaceship. There was no third member on this mission.

Neptune was whispering into Gu Ding’s ear while all this was going on and Gu Ding finally managed to calm himself down, but the fury in his eyes was still visible.

“Listen to me, both of you. Bring Liliath back immediately or I’ll unleash Calamity’s particle annihilation cannon and bury everyone in the city and harbor here with me! That includes both of you, the whole Army, and all of us as well, no one will live!” Gu Ding’s voice was cold yet determined.

“Hehe, little boy, I did not expect you to be so reckless!” The expression on the rickety old man’s face changed, but he immediately laughed. “I’ve always been known to mean what I say!” Gu Ding gave him a death stare and the Calamity’s cannon pointed at the ground from the sky. Energy started to gather within the cannon.

“You…” The rickety old man had never thought that he would be threatened by this young brat. His eyeballs twisted and looked around for a few times before finally removing the black nail on his right index finger from between Liliath’s eyebrows. “Fine, I’ll return her to you. Although, I’d like to let you know that she has been poisoned by me and will only live for ten days at the most. If the deal between my boss and a certain someone goes smoothly, I’ll search for you and give her an antidote after seven days. If I don’t appear after seven days, that means the deal has gone sour with our boss and this little wench will pay the price for it.”

The rickety old man threw Liliath toward them after the warning and Gu Ding caught her in his arms.

“Now, can we have our spaceship back?” Neptune finally allowed the spaceship to descend and the two men left without looking back as they steered the spaceship away from Great Divinity.

Gu Ding turned toward Sharp while carrying Liliath in his arms. “Release Biggie and let us leave Great Divinity!”
