Gantz!

Chapter 13: One punch!

Qin Junhao hid behind his bodyguards.

He waved at Chu Xinyao.

Chu Xinyao clutched Fang Xin's arm.

A hint of panic appeared on her delicate little face.

She was indeed frightened.

“Xinyao, come over quickly! Why are you hiding behind Fang Xin? Can Fang Xin protect you?” Qin Junhao urged again.

Chu Xinyao's face was pale. Seeing that Fang Xin didn't move, she bit her lip and stood firmly behind him.

Qin Junhao was furious and said to the bodyguards, “Don't act unless it's a critical moment! I must teach them a lesson! Let them know that I am the most reliable! Also! Focus on protecting Miss Chu, you don't need to bother with Fang Xin!”

Fang Xin's gaze was fixed on the seahorse holding the spear.

The spear held by the seahorse was pointed in Chu Xinyao's direction.

Whoosh!

The seahorse suddenly charged towards Chu Xinyao.

It cut a snowy white streak across the water's surface.

In just a few breaths.

The seahorse was already in front of them.

The spear in its hand lunged towards Chu Xinyao.

Although this attack wasn't aimed at a vital spot, it could still incapacitate Chu Xinyao.

Fang Xin pulled Chu Xinyao back, and almost immediately, several figures flashed out from his side.

Xiao Wutong, who was in the lead, with what he considered an elegant posture, parried the seahorse's spear with a single sword stroke.

He stood at the very front.

Allie led her people and blocked in front of Miss Chu, “Miss Chu, we are here to protect you!”

Fang Xin was momentarily stunned and glanced at Chu Xinyao.

Chu Xinyao could actually have the Seventh Division protect her.

What kind of background did she have?

It was true that her mother had some power, but it wasn't enough to have the Seventh Division come to protect her daughter.

That proved that Chu Xinyao's father was, as rumored, no ordinary person.

Fang Xin looked up and noticed that Allie was staring at him.

Their eyes met, and Allie nodded with a smile.

Fang Xin also nodded politely.

In addition to Xiao Wutong's team, another team also entered the battle, with their leader fighting the electric eel.

When Qin Junhao saw Xiao Wutong and Allie, he immediately waved excitedly and ran over to them.

“Captain Xiao! Sister Allie!”

“Are you here to protect me?” Qin Junhao asked excitedly.

Allie said coldly, “No!”

Qin Junhao forced an awkward smile, failed to show off, and immediately changed the subject, “Then is our Seventh Division on a mission?”

“Yes!”

Qin Junhao offered eagerly, “Can I join? I brought bodyguards, and my bodyguard captain is a Level 3 Warrior! I want to fight alongside you!”

Xiao Wutong glanced at Qin Junhao, his face full of despair. Every time he saw Qin Junhao, it made him feel terrible. He had gone excitedly, only to end up with such a nuisance.

Moreover, if the contract signed yesterday were to be terminated today, the Seventh Division's credibility would plummet. Seeing Qin Junhao, Xiao Wutong felt as if he was looking at his own pillar of shame.

Out of sight, out of mind, “Allie, take them to find the exit! Be sure to escort Miss Chu out safely!”

“Understood!”

“Escort Miss Chu?” Qin Junhao was utterly bewildered, looking at Chu Xinyao with immense shock. He hadn't expected Chu Xinyao's identity to be so extraordinary that the Seventh Division would specifically come to protect her. The other classmates also showed surprised expressions.

“Follow me!” Allie said, leading the Seventh Division squad, with Chu Xinyao protected in the middle, and ran towards the safety passage.

Clang, clang, clang, clang...

In the distance.

The octopus playing the flute and piano suddenly slammed its tentacles frantically on the piano keys, emitting a piano sound that agitated the mind, and the flute also made a piercing sound, making people feel irritated and flustered.

And those attacking marine creatures, upon hearing the piano music, had blood-red eyes and became incredibly agitated, as if they had received a buff. During battle, they seemed to know no pain, charging forward relentlessly, not stopping until the last drop of blood was shed.

Meanwhile, the singing jellyfish floated in the water, emitting a beautiful sound that made people feel drowsy.

“This is bad! The octopus and jellyfish with Mental Talent! Allie! Form a formation, protect Miss Chu!” Xiao Wutong, who was fighting the seahorse, his face sank.

Allie flicked her Smart Connect Device from her wrist, opened it, and pressed it to the ground. The other three team members followed suit. The Smart Connect Devices emitted scarlet rays, connecting to form an octagonal barrier, directly isolating the overflowing water and sound waves.

This miraculous scene filled several classmates with curiosity.

Qin Junhao looked excitedly at the Smart Connect Devices on the ground, proudly explaining to the other classmates, “This is the Sky Shield Smart Connect Device, a treasure developed independently by the Sky Shield Bureau. Only official members have it, and you can only get it after serving a full year at the Sky Shield Bureau!”

“Brother Hao, I really envy you! You'll also have this amazing thing in a year!” Xu Xiaoqiang immediately flattered him without hesitation.

The other classmates looked on with envy.

Qin Junhao smiled, his peripheral vision sweeping over Fang Xin and Chu Xinyao, with an expression that seemed to say, 'Aren't I awesome?'

Fang Xin returned an expression that said 'I'm not looking'.

His gaze swept over the Smart Connect Device. Yesterday, White Hair had also given Fang Xin one. At the time, he thought it was just a communication device for looking up information, but he hadn't expected it to have such a miraculous function.

He had thought it would last for a while.

But to his surprise, almost in the very next second.

The previous sea turtle once again performed its 'turtle shell toss'.

Its shell spun and flew towards them, crashing heavily onto the barrier.

The barrier let out a deafening roar, and the almost transparent protective shield developed cracks.

Everyone's faces changed; they hadn't expected the sea turtle to be so strong.

Almost in the next second.

A chill swept through.

The water outside the barrier instantly froze, and the barrier developed dense cracks, shattering in an instant.

The turtle shell spun back to the sea turtle, which tossed it again. This time, it was intended to smash through everyone within the barrier.

But this time, before the turtle shell could hit them, it was kicked back the way it came. The turtle shell heavily impacted the sea turtle, which slid across the water, flew backward, crashed into the wall, struggled a few times, and then fell silent.

A man in a suit blocked in front of the barrier.

He stomped his foot hard, cracking the ice, and the waves of water receded in all directions, revealing a vacuum zone.

The man adjusted his glasses, “Take them out through the southeast corner!”

Allie nodded, “Understood, Team Leader!”

“Team Leader?” Qin Junhao heard these two words as if he had reached an climax, “It's actually a Team Leader!”

“What's wrong with a Team Leader, Brother Hao?” Xu Xiaoqiang acted like a straight man in a comedy duo.

Qin Junhao looked at the suited man's back with excitement and admiration, “The highest command rank in the Seventh Division is Director, below Director is Team Leader, below Team Leader is Battalion Commander, and below Battalion Commander is Squad Leader! Sister Allie is a Squad Leader, which requires a Level 3 Warrior. Captain Xiao is a Battalion Commander, which requires a Level 5 Warrior. And a Team Leader, that requires a Level 8 Warrior!”

Xu Xiaoqiang exclaimed, “Wow, our small Lan City doesn't even have a Level 8 Warrior stationed here, and today we're seeing a live one!”

Fang Xin's peripheral vision glanced at Chu Xinyao. To be able to mobilize a Team Leader who was at least Level 8 for protection.

What kind of existence was Chu Xinyao's father?

The man in the suit tugged at his tie, his eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses coldly looking past the school of fish at the diver in the merman suit.

“Friend, work is already annoying, and you're still hiding in the dark playing dirty tricks, that's even more annoying.”

The school of fish dispersed, and the diver smiled, “So it's Team Leader Sheng of the Seventh Division. I didn't expect a Team Leader to be dispatched.”

The man in the suit untied his tie and wrapped it around his arm, “Such a good Saint-grade treasure, letting you use it doesn't even bring out its full power. It's truly a waste of natural resources!”

“Then you try again!” The diver's expression turned sinister as he raised his hand. With him as the center, ice once again spread in all directions, seemingly intending to turn this place into a world of ice and snow. The fish surrounding him transformed into rotating, ice-encased sharp cones, attacking the man in the suit.

The tie wrapped around the man's arm emitted a dazzling golden light.

Like an icebreaker, it charged wildly towards the diver.

The ice surface was instantly pierced, creating a huge crack.

“Stop looking! Hurry up and go!” Allie urged.

The group of classmates snapped out of their surprise.

Was this what a clash between powerful experts looked like?

Allie led the way, but to her surprise.

The path ahead was blocked by a Dolphin.

The Dolphin looked at the approaching group, its gaze fixed on Qin Junhao, and it spoke with a thick Northeastern accent.

“What are you looking at?”

Qin Junhao shrank behind several bodyguards, “What's it to you if I'm looking?!”

“You little brat! Who are you talking to?!”

The Dolphin immediately became enraged.

Fang Xin looked at the Dolphin that could speak human language. Some animals have high intelligence, and many animals with awakened talents can also speak human language.

The Dolphin spun around.

And charged towards them.

Allie was the first to block in front, her blue-patterned blade gleaming, and she immediately clashed with the Dolphin.

The Dolphin had a water-attribute talent, while Allie had an assassination-type talent. Both were Level 3 Warriors, and they fought to a standstill.

Qin Junhao and his group watched nervously.

But Fang Xin, who had experienced countless battles, big and small, was unfazed.

A bloody scratch had already appeared on the Dolphin's side, “Oh, damn it?! You crazy old hag! I'm going to kill you! Leopard, what are you two doing?! I'll hold back this stinky old hag, what are you two doing, go grab that target, and we'll go back to report!”

From one side, two seals, who had previously been drumming in the gladiatorial arena, emerged, bringing with them several shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

They charged towards Chu Xinyao.

“Protect Miss Chu!” Allie shouted back.

Three team members surrounded Chu Xinyao, instantly engaging in a fight with the opponents.

However, the opponents were too numerous, and the three team members were a bit overwhelmed.

Moreover, both seals were at Level 2 peak.

Qin Junhao licked his lips, seeing an opportunity.

“Xinyao! Don't be afraid! I'll protect you!”

But in the next second.

The two seals each opened their mouths and spat out a drum, beating the drums on their chests with deafening sounds.

In the blink of an eye, one team member was directly blown into a mist of blood, and the other two team members were injured.

The two seals changed their target, heading straight for Chu Xinyao.

This scene terrified many of the students present.

It was the first time they had faced death so closely.

As the seals approached.

Qin Junhao's bodyguard captain, following Qin Junhao's earlier instructions, wanted to come over to protect Chu Xinyao.

Unexpectedly, Qin Junhao grabbed the bodyguard captain, “Why protect her! Protect me!”

The two seals were already close.

Allie wanted to turn back, but she was desperately held back by the Dolphin, “Haha! You little brat! I'm going to make a great contribution!”

Fang Xin shielded Chu Xinyao behind him.

He twisted his waist.

One punch!
