Blood Assimilation

Hearing these words from the other party, Randy raised his eyebrows in surprise and then casually said in return: "Is that so? Then I will let you experience what your subordinate experienced right before he fainted."

After saying so, the next moment, he suddenly vanished from the spot that he was standing on, causing the sunglasses man to be shocked momentarily.

However, unlike the other times, where Randy was either dashing forward or executing his skill to increase his speed, this time, on the other hand, he stood in the same position without any movement.

A moment later, his appearance and presence instantly disappeared altogether as if he had vanished from this world.

The sunglasses man started sensing around to find where Randy might be or where he was going to attack from to no avail.

"Hmm? Where did you go, and how can you make even your presence disappear?"

The sunglasses man realized that he could not find him no matter how much he had tried even though this stealth skill of his Randy was not too high leveled at the moment.

"How interesting… What an interesting ability you have there." The sunglasses man commented in admiration.

After observing around for a brief moment, the sunglasses man continued in a mysterious tone: "So that was how you dealt with my subordinate, but did you know we anticipated you using this ability beforehand? Did you already forget what I said just now about how you won\'t be able to defeat us as easily as you did with my subordinate?"

Randy was bewildered by the other party\'s words, but he decided to ignore it for now as he was currently adjusting to his assimilated state.

After a while of adjustment to his new state, and as he was trying to make his move based on his new perception, he suddenly noticed two presences through his infrared vision lurking behind him.

At this point, one of the presences looked like they were throwing a punch at his back.

\'Shit! I let my guard down.\' He cursed.

"Bang!"

"Ugh!"

Randy groaned in pain as he was sent flying away after being struck directly from behind.

Although he had been vigilant this whole time, however, when he entered the assimilated state just now, he instantly became vulnerable.

That was because of this new assimilated state that took away sight and even his perception that changed.

Due to that, he could not help but take some time to adjust before facing his enemies.

However, in the end, this gave his enemies the edge they needed to launch their attack on him when he was nothing paying attention for a brief moment.

"Hmm? Are you kidding me, to think you managed to react in time to dodge my attack…?" The presence said in disbelief as they seemed surprised that the other party managed to dodge their attack at such a close distance.

And then they continued: "Interesting… I even aimed for your spine to avoid too much struggle, but as it turned out you shifted your body at the last moment before my attack even hit. Now I understand why you were able to defeat that Ghost Hands; I thought that he was just negligent, and he let his guard down, but now I see that was not the case and it was the target that was a tricky one…"

After saying this, the presence stopped talking, stood back, and made some gesturing to the other presence beside them regarding something.

Randy observed these actions from the other parties without reacting to them much as he quickly thought of ways to handle the current situation.

Just now, he barely managed to dodge the attack at the last moment.

Otherwise, he would have sustained more damage than just some skin damage.

Randy held his back with his hand as he surreptitiously continued to observe the presences that appeared on his infrared vision with a pained expression.

\'Damn it, that bastard did not back on his attack just now; how ruthless. If I did not notice him ahead of time, my spine would have been fractured, or worse, broken from just the impact of his fist. I was lucky that he did not use a weapon to attack me, otherwise...\' Randy complained in his mind.

"Ahahaha! You are an interesting brat. Judging from those words from my subordinate, it seemed that you somehow managed to escape from getting significant damage. I should applaud you for your battle sense." The sunglasses man laughed and said while staring in the blank space.

And then he continued: "But I guess now you understand what I mean by you cannot escape from this predicament no matter how you try, let alone defeat us."

"…"

Randy did not respond to the other party as he pondered his next course of action.

However, at this moment, the sunglasses man suddenly dashed forward as if he could perceive his location.

Without giving him much time to react, the other presence standing with the first presence suddenly approached Randy from the side.

Right now, Randy was leaning against one of the buildings, and despite the presence approaching him from the side, they did not initiate an attack.

They just stood there without any movement as if waiting for something.

Right away, Randy understood what was going on, and without giving the other parties a chance to sneak up on him, he abruptly threw an all-out punch at the presence who was standing on his side.

"What?! Impossible! How can you see me!" A voice screamed in shock, but it was too late.

"BAM!"

"Ahhhhhhh!"

The presence was hit directly on their chest.

And right away, they were sent flying while screaming at the top of their lungs.

Boom!

And a moment later, they flew past the other presence, crashed into the dead-end wall.

And soon, the screaming voice abruptly stopped as they lay there limp, bleeding from all their orifices.

[Void Rippling Punch]

Randy did not hold back as he used his fist technique at that moment to strike the unguarded presence seemed to be a non-combatant type of awakened and ability holder rather than an actual fighter.

These classes of people were usually not allowed to enter battles unless they were truly necessary for said battles.

According to what Randy had guessed, this guy was most likely the one that identified his location and even hid his gang members\' presence to avoid notice from him.

However, they did not know that Randy could essentially perceive any entity that was warm-blooded, so it does not matter the technique or ability they use.

As long as they could not fundamentally mask their entire existence, he could still perceive them through the heat signature or the slight energy fluctuations they may give off.

Not knowing about this information, this particular gang member lost his life before he could even realize what hit him, and Randy did not even bat an eye at this person.

After all, these people were so ruthless enough to attack an unguarded student like him.

So why would he feel the need not to reciprocate such ruthlessness?
