Super Detective in the Fictional World - Chapter 568

Chapter 568 After All That, We’re Doing a Round Robin!

I wonder if those wrist blades can cut my alloy rope darts! Luke murmured to himself.

With a sudden bang, the ground below the four-eyed creature crumbled, and it thrust its spear forward.

The spear was much faster this time. Clearly, the four-eyed creature was going all out.

Luke retreated and swept the ornamental spear forward like a staff again.

The four-eyed creature didn’t back down at all, and the wrist blades on its left hand flipped out again.

Cling!

The ornamental spear was cut in half by the wrist blades, and the four-eyed creature’s spear continued to thrust forward.

Luke raised an eyebrow. You’re relying on your equipment to bully me? He rolled past the four-eyed creature once again.

At the same time, his left hand reached for his waist and he threw out two black darts at the creature.

The two darts spun toward the four-eyed creature in an arc from both sides at high speed. The four-eyed creature saw two dark shadows shooting at it as soon as it turned around. As it instinctively evaded them, the spear it was holding slowed down slightly.

Luke, who was already standing at that moment, then twisted his body and hurled the half of the spear that he was still holding with all his strength.

The four-eyed creature had just been forced to dodge the darts, when Luke’s half-spear headed right for it. The half-spear hit it hard in the chest and sent it flying

Luke bent down and pressed forward. He grabbed a military knife at his waist and gave chase.

Sensing the danger, the four-eyed creature twisted in the air and then plunged its spear into the ground so that it came to a jarring stop. It then raised its left hand at Luke.

Alarm bells went off in Luke’s head, and he slowed down, only to see the four-eyed creature’s left wrist shoot out a dark lump.

The dark lump was very fast and unfurled into a net two meters away from Luke.

Luke raised his left hand, and the two black darts flew back from the sides before he flicked them out again toward the net. With soft clinks, the black darts were tangled up in the huge net, which dropped not far in front of Luke.

Luke didn’t press forward again, but unhurriedly drew out two more black darts. “You launch a net, and I use darts. Fair’s fair, right?”

The four-eyed creature couldn’t say a word.

Just now, Luke had hurled the half-spear with his full strength, and the creature’s armor, which was used solely for hunting, couldn’t withstand the impact.

It was now having trouble catching its breath as it watched Luke raise the black darts.

An announcement rang out in the space warship once again. “A suspected low-level guardian has entered the hunting ground.

“According to the agreement, the battle is between the two parties and nobody else is allowed to intervene.

“The number of prey exceeds expectations, and the hunters may not be able to finish with disposal. Prepare to initiate the cleaning sequence.”

In the ruins, Luke looked at the four-eyed creature who could barely stand on its feet. “Any last words?” He was ready to launch the darts.

The four-eyed creature roared in a low voice, and Luke shrugged regretfully. “Sorry, I don’t speak alien!”

With that, he prepared to attack.

But right at that moment, he had a sense of foreboding, and jumped several meters away.

Bright white light shot through the spot where Luke had been standing and drilled through the stone wall behind.

Luke raised an eyebrow. “Another one?”

Another tall creature emerged from the dark tunnel.

It was wearing similar equipment as the other creatures, except that its helmet was simpler and looked vaguely like the head of a dog.

Luke curled his lip. “So we’re not dueling anymore?”

The newcomer with the dog-like helmet also adopted an attack pose as it held a long spear.

Luke rolled his eyes. “After all that, we’re doing a round robin?”

He had barely said the words, when the ruins began to shake again.

With a rumble, a heavy stone gate fell in the middle of the passage. Luke didn’t attack again, but simply stared at the newcomer until they were separated by the stone gate.

They didn’t fight for a simple reason.

The dog-headed creature was worried about the four-eyed creature. It couldn’t abandon its teammate to go after Luke.

On Luke’s side, the members of the exploration team were still evacuating, and he also didn’t want to be stuck on this side.

He looked at the stone gate for a few seconds before he shifted his gaze.

A system notification suddenly popped up.

System: You have killed Predator “Chopper.” You may now learn some of its abilities.

Predator Chopper’s abilities: Basic Combat, Basic Spear Proficiency, Basic Tracking… Neural Telekinesis (unavailable), Body Temperature Adjustment, Elementary Limb Regeneration (Prerequisite: 40 Strength and 20,000 credit points).

Luke was stunned. What happened? When did he kill a Predator?

At that moment, there were furious roars on the other side of the wall.

Luke found a small gap in the wall and looked at the other side.

He saw two of the two masked creatures standing in a corner which had a pool of green fluid.

Luke then remembered that the cat-faced creature which he had sent flying had been in that location. Had the unlucky b*stard been crushed to death by the moving walls?

Because Luke had wounded it heavily, it had trouble moving and hadn’t been able to dodge the falling wall in time, so Daddy System determined that he was the one who killed the cat-faced creature.

Luke was amused.

Just now, he had purely been testing the combat ability of these humanoid creatures in helmets. He hadn’t tried his best or planned to kill them right away.

After he was done testing them, he had been about to kill the four-eyed creature, when the dog-headed creature who was the last to arrive threw something at him. The ruins had started to move then, separating the two parties.

But Luke had profited tremendously from this exchange.

He looked at the wall nearby; the cat-faced creature’s double-headed spear was still stuck in it.

Above the spear was an impressive-looking silver disc thrown by the dog-headed creature.

The disc looked a little like a crab; it was a semi-circular metal plate with six sharp blades sticking out of it.

This disc was very interesting. It flew in a curved trajectory, and was very lethal. It was far superior to his experimental darts.

Thinking for a moment, Luke dug out the double-headed spear and the six-blade disc with his knife before he stored them in his inventory.

After he was done, he peeped through the hole again, only to see that the two masked creatures were gone.

Grinning, he returned to the tunnel behind him and followed the exploration team’s tracks.

Since there was nobody around, he moved at his fastest speed, and several minutes later, heard the echoes of screams and gunshots in the tunnel.

Luke heaved a soundless sigh. How many monsters were there in this damn place?

He pulled a submachine gun from his back and grabbed another ornamental spear from a statue, before he ran into a passage.

The roof of this passage was three meters tall with rocks rising like rampants on both sides that cast shadows on almost everything.
