Chapter 106: Is it necessary to be so stubborn?

  In short, he's been isolated alone, if only I had known better than to act alone... Now it seems like a big deal has unfolded? Hmm, compared to those powerful demons, his identity is definitely inferior, but compared to ordinary demons, he's considered a higher class. To be specific... His current position is roughly that of a green-named 'Elite Monster'.

  It's just a small BOSS, no need to bring out a large number of high-level troops, chasing yourselves like street vendors being chased by city management.

  Why are they called elite troops?

  Well, ordinary troops won't be equipped with optical camouflage equipment, right?

  "Hey!!!! Chasing me is one thing, but you're looking down on people too much!!!” Jiǔ Mìng, who had been holding back for a long time, suddenly burst out from the rock he was leaning against and pressed down on the empty space beside him. At the same time, he snatched away the syringe that was slowly stabbing towards his neck from the opposite side.

  "It hurts." The Moon person, whose arm was twisted by Jiu Ming, let out a cry of pain. She then felt her head being groped by Jiu Ming's hand, which soon moved to her neck. "Y-you... what do you want to do?"

  "Of course, I'll strip off this troublesome outer skin of yours!" Jiǔ Mìng reached for something on her neck with a card slot and pulled it with one hand. It was quite sturdy and didn't come off? Then add some force!

  As she was pulled down with her helmet, her transparent body quickly recovered its normal color. She stretched out her hand and wore a very strange tight-fitting garment, no wonder the touch felt a bit strange when grabbing her just now.

  Still the moon rabbit...

  "Say, what do you want to do?!" He tossed the helmet in his hand to one side, and Jiǔ Mìng glared at this pitiful Moon Rabbit with a ferocious expression on his face. He wouldn't go soft just because the other party showed a weak exterior, at least not now.

  "Grab... grab you." The moon rabbit replied with a trembling tone, "That, can you let go of your hand?"

  "Alright." With a nod, Jiǔ Mìng released his grip on the rabbit-eared girl's arm, and the flushed Moon Rabbit girl felt a slight stinging sensation in her arm before staring blankly at the metal syringe stuck in it.

  "What are you doing!?" Jiǔ Mìng's hands moved too quickly, so fast that she didn't even have the chance to stall for a bit of time.

  "Of course, to see if what you're saying is true." Jiǔ Mìng smiled slightly. If it was just for catching people... the position injector that had just been snatched from Yuè Tù's hand would be the best verification tool.

  ... month rabbit girl just mouth corner slightly twitched, estimated even after nine lives still didn't listen, very straightforwardly soft and weakly fell to one side.

  Quickly checked her physical condition, all life activities were normal, no signs of decline, it was true that she could be confirmed, tried to pull the tight-fitting clothes on her body, this thing can be worn invisibly, if it can be used, it would be great, only...

  This garment has high elasticity, and with a forceful pull from the collar, it opens up. No wonder this garment is seamless, can't find any joints, directly pulling open a big mouth from the neck can wear it on, only... after nine pulls, what's revealed is the smooth shoulder of the moon rabbit, still not wearing!

  My fault! My fault!

  He let out a breath, and the Nine Lives Fruit's grip loosened, with a snap, the collar that had been pulled open quickly sprang back into place. The Moon Rabbit girl's face, still in a daze, unconsciously revealed a hint of pain. Never mind, it was just an 'Invisibility Cloak' after all...

  She put the helmet back on her again, but didn't see her turn invisible again. Did my violent action of pulling off the helmet just now ruin this garment?

  Forget it for now, let's leave and talk about it later!

  Jiǔ Mìng thought to himself as he took out a Sealing Card, let's use this thing for now. But just as he did, his wrist suddenly hurt and the Sealing Card slipped from his hand, falling towards the ground. Not a sniper rifle... He quickly made a judgment, the impact on his wrist was very painful, but the damage wasn't great, and the speed at which he was attacked was too fast...

  Was it necessary to target himself like that!!! He quickly picked up the falling sealed card, Jiǔ Mìng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a bullet had already pierced his calf. The bullet was real, but the flowing light on it proved that this thing was not simple, otherwise it wouldn't have hurt Jiǔ Mìng.

  How hateful!

  He turned his head to look, but he couldn't find the attacker's position at all. The opponent was arrogant to the extreme with the invisible cloak, and if he didn't move, Jiǔ Mìng wouldn't be able to detect him even if he moved because of the distance. As for the one being subdued beside him, it could only be said that she was unlucky, daring to get close to Jiǔ Mìng. In battle, his perception range within a few meters around him was extremely high!

  By now, he only knew that the number of people surrounding him was increasing, and there was no way to judge the actual number.

  He took a deep breath, and after being shot through the leg with nine lives, no penetrating wound appeared. The wound that was shot out had already healed when the bullet passed by. In other words, he was a warrior with a magic shield... As long as the shield didn't break, all the damage taken would be borne by his magic value, and he wouldn't lose any blood at all.

  He would only feel the pain, and once his 'magic value' was depleted, what consequences would follow, even Jiǔ Mìng himself did not dare to think about, the most likely outcome being that his soul would scatter?

  So if this continues, he will be dragged down!

  It's just that he found it strange, why the other party would make a snipe at the moment he took out the sealed card? Damn, are there also moles from Moon Capital among the Youguai? Uh, no, not many people know about the effect of his sealed card.

  "What a hassle." He let out a breath, and Nine Lives took a deep look in the direction of the battlefield. This was for the better... He didn't want to participate in that battle with an unknown purpose anyway. Now at least there's a purpose to this fight... Yeah, can't get caught, bring it on!

  Brother wants to hit ten!

  As if sensing the provocative intent of Jiuming, the snipers in the dark opened fire again, from multiple directions. They too had discovered the peculiarity of Jiuming's physique and no longer targeted his limbs, but also avoided his head, heart and other vital areas that were commonly known to be fatal.

  He slightly shifted his body, dodging several bullets. Jiumeng swiftly targeted a position he was most certain of and made a response with one shot. After firing, he retreated to a distance without looking back.

  "You take her back first." The several 'invisible people' checked the Moon Rabbit who was lying on the ground and unconscious, and found that apart from the needle holes on her arm, she had no other injuries. As a result, their malicious feelings towards Jiu Ming also decreased somewhat, and it seemed that the person they were chasing did not like to kill.

  "Alright." The helmet was removed, and another Moon Rabbit nodded. Her shoulder had been injured by the Nine Lives' previous shot, with an energy impact beam coming too quickly for her to dodge. Besides the penetrating wound on her shoulder, her extended arm was unable to move due to the diffused energy impact range inside her shoulder, which wasn't just limited to the small hole that was pierced through.

  "The pursuit continues." With a nod, several more Moon Rabbit soldiers fell back into stealth.

  "I'm going!! As expected, fighting on the enemy's home ground is the most disadvantageous." Panting, Jiǔ Mìng looked at the screen on his gun and shook his head. He removed several mid-level high-energy crystals that were built-in, which had lost their original color due to lack of energy and turned into ordinary crystals.

  Now he has no idea how many times he's been shot, just by looking at his body which is almost half darkened you can tell the number of injuries is not small, as for how many people he counterattacked and injured...he doesn't know at all!

  They must have reinforcements! No matter how many months the nine-lives soldier had been fleeing, he found that the number of people surrounding him never decreased, but instead increased. The occasional cold gunshots and their equipment made it suffocating.

  "You really look up to me." After calming down, Jiǔ Mìng took out a few high-energy crystals, fortunately, he had brought many with him as he found it troublesome to take them out from the sealed card, otherwise, he would have nothing but an empty gun now.

  After changing the 'magazine', he glanced around for about nine lives, and quickly transferred to another place. He had been fighting with the pursuer for half a day, and the distant explosion sound was inaudible to him. He didn't know if the battle was over or because he ran too far away.

  Not long after, the several high-energy crystals that had been discarded on the ground by Jiǔ Mìng were collected by a group of Moon Rabbit soldiers, who were preparing to transport them back. They had never relaxed their surveillance of Jiǔ Mìng, so these objects that seemed to be embedded with energy like firearms definitely had to be brought back, even if they were just remnants, as they still had research value.

  After fighting with Jiǔ Mìng for a while, they also customized the best countermeasure, which is to drag! After controlling Jiǔ Mìng's possible escape routes, it would be fine to slowly grind away his strength. The information transmitted from their detectors could all discover that Jiǔ Mìng's overall energy intensity was decreasing as the number of injuries increased.

  Surveillance is difficult to carry out, the special nature of the nine-lived entity makes many of their methods ineffective, and even infrared detection can't find the nine-lived one, its body temperature is very abnormal.

  On the contrary, that method of energy detection produced a very good effect. In general, if this method is tracked, it will be misled when discovered. The target being tracked only needs to use a little trick and separate out a part of its energy to achieve this.

  Nine lives and yet can't even manage this one thing...

  He can't even release his energy externally.

  Apart from monitoring issues, the nine lives' response to their raids is also increasing with their own weakening, and the nine lives are quickly adapting to their raid routines.

  They only need to make some slight adjustments to avoid this problem, but the reaction boost of the nine lives will not decrease due to their adjustments. This is a protracted war that will last for quite some time. As for those ordinary demons, it's nothing much.

  Unexpectedly, they encountered a capable one who was so troublesome. Many people were mobilized, and even with the convenience of equipment, they couldn't take down the opponent in a short period. They tried several times to grab him at close range, but all were counterattacked by Jiǔ Mìng and turned over. Even with remote support, the effect was not great.
