For a moment, the chubby boys wanted to dash forward and help Lin Chen. However, one of the masked men appeared from the ground and grabbed onto his ankles. The masked man dragged the chubby boy into the ground.
The girl in ponytail also wanted to help Lin Chen, but she had her hands full with metalman. The anesthetic shot used against the supercat was futile against metalman. She threw it away, took out another pistol and fired a barrage of bullets at metalman.
All the bullets managed to do was to create sparks against his body accompanied by clanking sounds. Metalman took a few steps back but then started dashing towards the girl unscathed.
Even though the two of them were occupied with their fights, the remaining five apostles had their pistols in hand and had a clear shot at the last remaining apostle.
With five apostles locked on from 5 different directions, the masked man would not be able to escape even if he wanted to.
Gunshots were fired, and blood spurted out from his body. He stumbled from the impact of all the gunshots before he fell to the ground.
At the moment when his body came crashing to the floor, he opened his eyes and fired a shot at the back of an apostle’s head.

It is the power of regeneration!
The chubby boy reacted to it and exclaimed,
Use the anesthetic shots instead!
The masked man who could travel underground pulled the chubby boy down to the ground again after he warned his teammates.
The remaining four apostles reacted to the chubby boy’s suggestion and switched to anesthetic bullets instead. They started firing at the masked man with the power of regeneration.
The masked man seemed remarkably experienced at dodging bullets. He did a front roll the moment he stood up, allowing him to avoid the first wave of shots. He then threw a grenade into the air.
Bam! A blinding light radiated from the explosion.

It is a stun grenade.


Be careful!

Sounds of footsteps rang in the apostle’s ear. The apostle repeatedly pressed the trigger in the direction of the source of the noise. Soon, he felt something pressing against his stomach; the masked man had already positioned his pistol on him.
Bam! The masked man fired off a shot, and the bullet punctured the apostle’s skin and impaled his organs.

He got shot! He’s in my area!

The apostle clutched onto his wound as his vision turned blurry. He saw the masked man removing a dagger and slowly chopped off his hand which got hit by an anesthetic bullet
The remaining three apostles had already heard their friend’s call for help. Under all the confusion, they could only shoot at where their friend previously stood at.
The three apostles’ vision was still affected by the flashbang previously. However, they did not hesitate to fire at the enemy.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
The masked man just jumped and dodged the majority of the bullets. However, two rounds still managed to land on his chest and high. He did not panic but just smiled at the sight of it. He raised his pistol and fired a shot at his head.
That shot destroyed his central nervous system when the bullet pierced through his brain. However, he had already started to recover, and that anesthetic shots did not affect his newly reconstructed central nervous system.
The apostles just saw the masked man falling to the ground before opening his eyes again. He stood up and immediately took an aimed shot at one of the apostles.
The apostle was about to activate his power and escape. However, he felt that something was grabbing onto his ankle. He lowered his head and saw a hand grabbing onto him; he could only watch the masked man pulled the trigger and fired a shot at him.
He roared and fired a stream of shots in retaliation.
Both their eyes met, and the bullets landed on the masked man and apostle’s body at the same time.
The apostle fell to the floor while the masked man was struggling to stand. The bullets were squeezed out of his body, and he looked as good as new.
Lin Chen finally regained his consciousness from the impact of the grenade’s explosion. He struggled to get on his feet but was taken aback by the masked man’s onslaught.
Within that short span of time, the remaining five apostles had all died. Only Lin Chen, the girl, and the chubby boy survived.
The masked man was extremely powerful, be it his physical strength, proficiency at handling pistol, battle experience, and even his control over his power.
This was especially so with the help of the other masked man who could travel underground and helped restrain his opponents. They were invincible.
If Lin Chen were at his best and knew about his opponent’s ability of self-regeneration, he would still have a shot at taking him down. However, the chances of that now were close to 0.
The girl in a ponytail and the chubby boy were both restrained by metalman and the underground man respectively.

Stop … Stop it!


Oh, you still can move?
The masked man turned around to Lin Chen who was crawling on the floor. Lin Chen was grabbing on to the masked man’s ankle. The masked man remarked,
I have to admit you’re pretty fast. You managed to dodge the majority of the impact from the explosion within such a short span of time.


However, do you still want to fight against me at your current state?
The masked man raised his foot and slammed it down, instantly breaking Lin Chen’s arm.
When the masked man was about to take another step forward, Lin Chen stopped him with his other arm.
Only one thought flashed across Lin Chen’s head,
Earthquake cat cannot be taken by anyone else.

Lin Chen raised his head and stared right into masked man’s eyes,
Were you part of Special Forces? All your moves are similar to the ones taught in Special Forces.

The masked man was somewhat stunned by Lin Chen’s question and asked,
So what?


Have you forgotten your oath?


Haha, I’ve stopped serving this country for a long time,
the masked man sniggered.
The masked man raised his foot again and started to stamp against Lin Chen’s arm repeatedly. Lin Chen could not help but to release his grip. The masked man then kicked Lin Chen to the side.
He walked forward and carried the Scottish Fold into his arms. A grin appeared on his face, and he whispered,
Earthquake cat, I’ve finally found you.

Suddenly, a cat’s meow rang in everyone’s ears.

The power of The 5 Senses!

…
Isabella was observing the entire situation from afar using her telescope.
She mumbled,
A building collapsed, and people are escaping from it. Are they apostles sent by the government?


Oh, the ruins started moving again. Is it because of earthquake cat? It’s really powerful.
She witnessed the scene where earthquake cat appeared with its back arched. She was stunned by what she saw.
The black cat at her feet asked,
What time am I going to eat?

However, Isabella’s eyes were fixed on the scene in front of her,
Are they afraid of attracting too much attention? Is that why they’ve only sent apostles here?

Isabella’s eyes squinted into a line as she saw the apostle carrying the cat into his arms. She thought,
Eight apostles would be extremely difficult to handle. Even millions of soldiers might not be able to take the cat away from them.
She knew the strength of an apostle alone. The combined power of eight of them would be enormous.
Each apostle possessed strength which greatly surpassed an ordinary human. Furthermore, as government officials, they were highly trained and were synergized as a unit.
The power of accelerated speed gave them extreme speed, flexibility and even reaction time. They could easily dodge a rain of bullets.
Just when she was immersed in her thoughts, the masked men appeared and clashed against the apostles.

Are they crazy? 3 of them are going against eight apostles?
The masked men displayed their superior combat skills just when Isabella started doubting them.
She saw how the masked man survived all the things which could have easily killed anyone, including an apostle and was shocked beyond words.

This guy is too strong.
Isabella witnessed the massacre as the five apostles fell to them one by one. Then, she saw the masked man carrying the Scottish Fold in his arms.

Dmn it, why must the cat end up in that guy’s hands,
Isabella gritted her teeth, and her eyes burned with anger.
If Lin Chen’s team were the one who captured the cat, Isabella would still find an opportunity to steal it from them secretly. However, the masked men were killing machines. She did not dare to do anything against them.
However, a new variable had been added to the battle.
