"Who are you?" The Mechanic looked at the masked Lin Hai and asked, emitting a voice similar to that of electronic sounds.
Lin Hai was also staring at the three individuals in front of him. Back in his days of dominance in the West, he had heard of these three.
However, at that time, the trio had not yet reached the status of Supreme Experts.
The Mechanic, who had once made a big name for himself in the international underworld, was known for his envious and bizarre obsessions and compulsive behaviors. He believed that the flesh was ultimately limited and only by replacing the human body with machinery could one pursue the strongest path to power. Originally not particularly strong, he insanely experimented on himself, replacing seventy percent of his body with special metal, and through this transformation, he became a Supreme Expert.
The Desperate Poison Master, this guy was an expert in various chemical concoctions and also the Mechanic's only meaningful friend. The Metal Mechanic's successful replacement of his body with metal owed some credit to the Desperate Poison Master. Fundamentally sharing the same view as the Mechanic, he believed that the human body not only had ceased to evolve but had started to degenerate. He was convinced that only by using chemically formulated drugs could the body be transformed, allowing humans to re-enter the "correct" path of evolution.
As for the last one left, the Skeleton King—by the time he made his appearance, Lin Hai had more or less entered a semi-hidden state.
According to the records on the intelligence clues he remembered, this Skeleton King was the only experimental subject who survived the combined reformative experiments by the Desperate Poison Master and the Mechanic. He was a twisted serial killer from Europe who was saved by the Poison Master and the Mechanic the night before his electric chair execution. He agreed to use his body for a series of experiments.
"Three of you, instead of staying nicely in the West, you actually ran to Huaxia to kill people?" Lin Hai coldly counter-questioned.
"You actually know us? Announce your name," the Mechanic asked again, and the three did not hide their murderous intent.
"Me? Heh, I am King Yan," Lin Hai answered with a laugh.
The three exchanged glances with each other, and the Desperate Poison Master sneered, "Although you are a Supreme Expert, it seems rather inappropriate to misuse someone else's name, doesn't it? King Yan? Where is your bronze-colored metal mask? Where is your high-tech black windbreaker?"
These were the characteristics of King Yan, almost everyone lurking in the underworld was clear about it; King Yan always had a mask and a black windbreaker.
"Since you don't believe it, I can't be bothered to explain. Either get out of Huaxia immediately, or stay here forever," Lin Hai said in a cold voice.
"Hmph, such arrogant words. Do you really think you, alone, can defeat the three of us? Although you are a Supreme Expert, since you've heard of our names, you should know that we are not like the ordinary Supreme Experts," the Mechanic retorted without the slightest intent to retreat.
"Hmph, just a metal lump, a body full of poison, and another piece of shit whose brain's probably broken," Lin Hai deliberately scoffed.
The Mechanic snorted coldly, then said to the Desperate Poison Master, "You continue the pursuit of those two people. Skeleton King and I will take care of this kid."
"Fine, after I kill that man and woman, I will continue to escort the Holy Blood. Wait for me at the destination," the Desperate Poison Master nodded his head.
"Remember to guard the Holy Blood well. We will follow your route to prevent any accidents; this time, the higher-ups value it highly," the Mechanic dictated.
Lin Hai's ears moved slightly, his heart filled with both confusion and curiosity.
Holy Blood? What the heck is that?
"Attack, kill this impostor of King Yan."
After the Mechanic finished speaking, the three simultaneously attacked Lin Hai.
Surprisingly, the fastest was the Skeleton King. This guy's face was wrapped with a cowhide mask, his entire figure as burly as a simpleton's, emitting a beast-like roar, as he pulled out his weapon—a hefty Wolf Fang Club—and viciously smashed it towards Lin Hai.
Lin Hai's entire body surged with Gang Qi as he gathered all the strength of his right arm and threw a punch at the Wolf Fang Club.
With a loud 'bang',
the Skeleton King, renowned for his strength, couldn't help but stagger back a few steps, emitting a puzzled gurgling sound from his throat.
"Such a strong force." The Mechanic's pair of non-human eyes momentarily solidified.
Dozens of Desert Poison Snakes shot out from the hands of the Desperate Poison Master, fast as lightning, striking towards every part of Lin Hai's body.
These snakes were originally pet snakes, which after being cultivated by the Desperate Poison Master through special methods, mutated with violent toxicity—so fierce that even Supreme Strong wouldn't dare to provoke them lightly, with minor cases causing full body paralysis and severe cases resulting in death within minutes.
The Dragon Tooth dagger was swung, a trail of cold light danced, and the Desert Poison Snakes were slashed in half, writhing and gradually stiffening on the ground.
The Desperate Poison Master scattered a handful of colorless and odorless powder, spreading and enveloping Lin Hai in the air.
Lin Hai held his breath; the poison of the Desperate Poison Master was extremely intense, even more dreadful than the Syphilis of the Dragon List.
With a wave of his hand, his garment stirred up a wind of Gang Qi that forcefully dispersed the poison mist.
The Mechanic's hands made a clang, and metallic claws similar to Wolverine's in the movies sprouted from his fists, cold light shimmering in the sunlight. Even his arms sprouted white metallic barbs and began to rotate crazily like lawn mowers, a bizarre sight to behold.
At the same time, the various metallic weapons on the Mechanic's body continuously auto-assembled, transforming him into a collection of deadly tools within a few breaths.
"Die." The Mechanic's throat issued a cold, electronic voice, and after his feet were modified to emit jets of air, he almost skimmed the ground, moving laterally in front of Lin Hai.
Facing such sharp metal, Lin Hai admitted he dared not clash flesh against metal; while blocking with the Dragon Tooth dagger, he constantly retreated swiftly, maintaining a distance to prevent the opponent from coming close.
At that moment, the Desperate Poison Master took the opportunity to dodge past Lin Hai's blockade, sprinting into the depths of the jungle, pursuing in the direction where Ouyang Xiaoya had just fled.
Lin Hai became anxious, wanting to quickly resolve the fight.
"Die, die, die." The Skeleton King uttered muffled sounds as he swung the Wolf Fang Club, bringing violent gusts of wind, turning even the stones on the ground to dust.
"Skeleton King, look behind, the Mechanic has fallen!" Lin Hai said calmly.
The Skeleton King hesitated, automatically turning his head to look behind.
The Judge's intelligence files had long stated that the Skeleton King's mind seemed to be damaged by countless experiments, a half-wit who possessed the strength of a Supreme Strong but only obeyed the Mechanic and Desperate Poison Master.
"Don't listen to him," shouted the Mechanic urgently.
But it was too late, in the instant when the Skeleton King turned his head, Lin Hai had already seized the opportunity, the Dragon Tooth dagger fiercely plunged into his neck, twisting rapidly, and Gang Qi crazily surged into his body.
A brilliant crimson pillar of blood soared into the sky, and with a 'bang', Lin Hai's palm struck the Skeleton King's head, sending the massive skull flying into the air.
The Skeleton King, large as a hill, collapsed with a boom, kicking up a cloud of dust.
