Chapter 260 Golden Pillar
Chapter 260 Golden Pillar
In the sparsely populated alley, a sudden gust of wind swept through. Under the tiger father's yellow sand, those who were besieging the area were instantly severely injured, with numerous wounds appearing on their bodies, all cut by the terrifying gale.
snort!
Seeing this, Tiger Father proudly raised his head. Perhaps his son's outstanding performance made him feel a little lonely, but now that he had used this move, he felt his vitality return, as if he had returned to the days when he was still Tiger Vanguard.
And needless to say, when faced with the remnants of the army, Tiger Father picked up his weapon and began to relentlessly slaughter them. Those superhumans were already weaker than him individually, and now, after suffering heavy injuries, they could only be hacked away and flee in panic.
Meanwhile, Sha Erlang also achieved considerable success, constantly swinging his giant hammer, with a high probability of creating a pile of minced meat on the ground with each strike.
Such immense force instilled fear in those around them, and some even considered retreating.
Or... should we escape?
After witnessing the horrific scene on the battlefield, one of them had the same thought: although escaping might lead to being punished by Lord Silver Hand, wasn't the current situation even more dangerous?
An unkillable tiger-man and a giant-like figure—how is he supposed to compete?
run!
We have to run!
Before long, the man made up his mind. After pushing his companion a few steps forward, he turned around and ran away.
"Eh!"
"Deserting in the face of battle is not a good thing!"
The squinty-eyed fat man who had been watching the show saw this and immediately felt displeased. So he stood up and then made a single hand gesture towards the air, and a long spear radiating golden light appeared in his hand.
call out! ! !
Without much hesitation, the squinty-eyed fat man raised his hand and shot. The spear made a series of whooshing sounds after he threw it, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived behind the fleeing man.
Pfft!
The spear pierced through his heart, and the man only glared at it before falling to the ground with an expression of resentment.
Such a terrifying performance shocked everyone. They had thought that the fat man sitting on the roof beam drinking was not very strong, but they did not expect that he would kill someone instantly when he made a move.
Although it was a wounded soldier, and one who was caught off guard, the speed and accuracy of the spear throw were still terrifying.
There are not many under Lin Tian's command who can do this, and only the white-robed scholar with superb marksmanship can perform such a terrifying charged throw.
No... the Sand King's throwing skills were also quite good, but he preferred throwing trash, like... pig dung, rather than spears.
Under the combined attack of the three, the remaining remnants were basically suppressed and eliminated, with only a few survivors to be taken back for questioning.
"Let's prepare to leave! This place is not safe to stay for long. Their reinforcements might arrive soon, and dragging it out too long is not a good thing."
Seeing that the battle was over, Mimi stopped slacking off and immediately led the prisoners, guided by Tiger Father, toward Lin Tian's residence.
.................
"You mean, these people suddenly started attacking you?"
Facing Tiger's father, whose injuries had not yet fully healed, Lin Tian asked him questions while handing him a healing pill.
"Hmm... perhaps there are clues to follow..."
After thanking the king, Tiger Father put the pill in his mouth and then recalled the details from before.
"What I remember is that I was inquiring about Golden Hand in the black market as usual, but I don't know if there was no such person at all, or if they deliberately didn't tell me. I inquired for a long time, but I couldn't get any information about Golden Hand."
"Just as I was about to go and see other places, I suddenly discovered that several people had started following me."
"Those people didn't try to hide themselves much. After they realized I had spotted them, they immediately surrounded me."
"They weren't very strong. At first, the few were no match for me. But I don't know if it's because I've been here too long, but some people have started attacking me again."
"With their endless stream of people, I was starting to struggle, and then what happened next..."
After listening to Tiger's father's story, Lin Tian rested his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought.
He was fairly certain that Golden Hand existed, since his name was already listed on the bounty. Of course, it might just be a title, and his real name might be something else entirely.
However, since the system gave him this name, it means that he must be able to find clues from this name.
Based on Tiger's father's experiences, Lin Tian guessed that Golden Hand must be someone who had been hiding underground for many years, and his power must be extraordinary. After all, it would be difficult for him to hide in the world or for people to help him conceal his identity.
Now that Tiger's father is searching for him everywhere, perhaps he has noticed this and that's why he sent people to take action against Tiger's father.
Lin Tian felt he had a general idea, so he just waited for the results of Hu Xianfeng's interrogation.
However, to his surprise, after waiting for a while, the squinty-eyed fat man who came to deliver the message said something that surprised him:
"Those prisoners..."
"died."
..............
"Did they die like this?"
Lin Tian frowned as he looked at the horrific scene before him, feeling a slight unease in his heart.
It's not that he has poor comprehension skills; it's mainly because the corpses in front of him are too bizarre.
A large number of gold bars, no... they should be called gold pillars, or rather, gold pillars that bloomed into beautiful flowers centered on the mouths of the prisoners.
The flowers bloomed brilliantly, perhaps even a little too brilliantly, after all, their tangled roots had already pierced through the entire body.
Underarms, palms, buttocks, skull—basically every joint had protruding golden pillars. These prisoners were like hanged criminals, except that their hanging was not performed with the help of external objects, but rather from the inside, strangling them completely.
Lin Tian initially thought that Mad Tiger had killed several prisoners while questioning them without considering the consequences, but seeing this scene, Lin Tian immediately rejected this idea, because it was clearly not as if Mad Tiger had hammered him to death, but rather that he had been murdered by another force.
"How is this going?"
