Chapter 24: Frank Custer
Dante leaned on the back of a car, holding the door removed from the car in his left hand and the rebellious sword in his right hand, silently thinking about his next counterattack.
There should be two enemies in the building in front of them, a sniper rifle and an automatic rifle configuration, there are at least four people in the left rear, the fire in their direction is too strong, and at least one person in the building on the right side, whenever he turns his back to him, he always shoots a headshot bullet in that direction.
Dante dodged two bullets with his speed, but he was not guaranteed that he would be able to dodge the next one, and his sense of danger could not help him in such an environment.
"To break the deadlock, I have to make a choice, rush in one direction and be attacked from the other two directions, but as soon as I rush into the building, this attack can stop!"
Dante threw the door high in his hand, and at that moment, at least five bullets pierced the door.
"Not all of them were shooting, and I had to be careful of their attacks. ”
Dante rolls twice in a row and arrives behind the nearest car, but this car does not block the view of all enemies, and two bullets bounce and smash into Dante's calf.
Dante did not stop, and quickly jumped up and rushed to another car not far away, the bullet followed Dante like a shadow, and Dante had just jumped to the top when he was accurately hit in the chest and forearm by two consecutive bullets.
If Dante hadn't covered his face with his left hand, the bullet would have passed directly through Dante's nose bone.
Dante fell to the ground in embarrassment, and then, with his right hand holding the sword, slammed into the ground, causing Dante's body to roll over, dodging several bullets while being shot in the spine by bullets from the same direction.
"After this sudden encounter, the first thing to do is buy a gun!"
Dante cursed and hid, picking at the bullet embedded in his spine with his fingers, and Dante's limbs were a little numb if he didn't take it out.
But the enemy obviously would not give him such a chance, and several bullets were fired at a rapid pace, and Dante quickly rolled on the spot and got directly under a car.
Dante hid under the car and withdrew the Rebel Greatsword, before Dante regained his heroic rank, Rebellion was not able to release his power remotely, and the current Rebellion was just a greatsword that could be used against demons.
Once at the peak of Dante, the countless skills that needed to be released with sword energy, such as thrusts, slashes, ascending dragons, flying swallows, and round trips, were now completely useless.
Dante can only keep reminding himself in his heart to prepare long-range weapons, to prepare long-range weapons for himself!
"Boom!"
The car above Dante exploded violently, apparently caused by the bullet hitting the fuel tank of the car, Dante didn't have time to think about the gun, and crawled out of the wreckage of countless cars with his hands and feet against the flames and air currents.
Dante couldn't wait to give himself a slap in the face, what was wrong with him, had he forgotten the tradition of the warrior, when he lost his strength, the first thing he did was not to arm himself, but to think of something that was not messy.
Dante's clothes were almost scorched, and the skin on his body was ulcerated exteriorly, the pain was different from what he had just now, and the pain now made Dante tremble slightly.
"Fake, are you going to the Death Realm again, I don't know who will get my body this time, but unfortunately my friend I just met, Chas's injuries should not last long. ”
Dante's bare-bones, already exposed musculature and part of his bones, rushed in the direction of the most powerful fire, and he was about eighty meters from the building where the enemy was.
Sure enough, in just two steps, Dante was hit by three bullets in the back, and Dante felt that this time he was going to fall in humiliation again.
Just then, another shot rang out.
Dante looked over in amazement, and the sound of gunfire appeared not far from him.
He saw a man wearing only body armor and a combat vest, with two arms exposed, coming out of a battered and tattered car, with short lean black hair and a very serious expression on his face.
He had an automatic rifle in his hand, and with just seven shots between turns, he had made distant enemies disappear.
The gunfire never rang out again, as if the enemy was dead, or maybe the enemy did not expect them to be scared away by such a precise and swift blow?
Dante, covered in blood, stood straight on the ground and watched at the man who saved him.
The man snorted violently and walked up to Dante.
"Damn mutants!"
The short-haired man cursed and shot Dante in the neck, only to end the shot when Dante's head was about to separate from his body.
"Are you still alive, still alive to say something!" the man slammed the butt of his gun into Dante's chest.
"Why do you help me solve them, but you seem to hate me so much!"
"Damn, it's really alive!"
The man thought for a moment, reached out and picked up Dante, threw it into his broken car, then he walked into the car and started the car, Dante lay weakly in the back seat, he was facing a pistol in front of him, the driver man only used his right hand to control the car, and his left hand was always aimed at Dante.
Dante moved his arm slightly, and a bullet flew out of the muzzle and burrowed into Dante's jaw.
"Since you just saved me, I forgive you for all your previous actions, but if you still shoot at me next, I will be really angry, believe me, even if I am so embarrassed, I will only use a sword to kill you!"
After Dante finished speaking, he retracted the rebellion he had just put in front of the man's neck, and the blade of the rebellious sword even stretched out of the car window, which was already shattered.
Dante sat up with his hands propped himself up, first glancing at the wounds all over his body, and then began to use his hands to continuously pull out the remaining bullets from the wounds, and Dante continued to hum softly as he moved.
In just one minute, Dante had already pulled out fourteen deformed warheads from his body.
"Do an undead monster like you feel pain?"
The man driving asked in a hoarse voice.
Dante turned his head to look at him, and he had already withdrawn his pistol.
"It hurts, but I'm used to it!"
Dante replied briefly, then proceeded to pull out the remaining seven bullets from his fingers.
The bullets were all located deeper, which made Dante's removal much more difficult.
The man driving seemed to see this scene through the rearview mirror, and he fumbled with his left hand at the door for a moment before pulling out a long pair of tweezers.
"It would be better to use this!"
As he spoke, he handed the tweezers to Dante.
"Thank you. Dante took the tweezers and remembered something, so he said, "I am Dante, Dante Naphilim." ”
"I know. The man interrupted Dante: "I know your name, and I know that you killed my brother, and that Marken Bell is the brother with whom I fought." ”
"I see, no wonder you tried to kill me while saving me. ”
"You are the same, I broke your neck, but you can still talk to me so calmly!"
For the first time, the man in the driver's seat turned his head to look at Dante's face.
"I'm Frank Custer. ”
"Dante Naphilim. ”
The two shook hands gently.
Dante then continued to hold the bullet in his body with tweezers, asking casually as he could.
"I killed your friend, do you still hate me?"
"Hate. Frank explained briefly. "Hate, but in that case, I understand your choice. ”
Frank said, suddenly slapping the steering wheel hard.
"He's a warrior, a good soldier, a good father, a righteous man, Dante, I want you to know that you're not killing a crazy villain, but a good guy who has been poisoned and hallucinated!"
"You know about it, too!" said Dante, looking at Frank in surprise. "I'm sorry, I only found out about this after the fact, and if I had investigated it at the time, I wouldn't have killed him. ”
"You're still sorry to me!" Frank was even more surprised than Dante: "How big is your heart, I just shot you in the neck, and you're still sorry to me!"
Dante shook his head gently, and with his tragic wounds, the picture was indescribably weird.
"Frank, you can't kill me, I'm ......!"
"I know. Frank interrupted Dante: "I know you are immortal, I saw the scene of you dying in the video saved by the police, and now I am afraid that you were not dead at that time, but unconscious." ”
"Almost, but you mentioned mutants when you met me, and I must emphasize that I'm not a mutant, I've seen news about mutants on the Internet, and their abilities come from genes, and my strength is not. ”
"It doesn't matter, I don't care how you got your skills, I just hope you can rescue Marken's widow with me!"
As Frank drove, he explained why he was in Atlanta.
"The night before, I received a call from Marken's wife, who knew we were the best brothers. She told me that Marken was dead, and that there was a huge suspicion about his death, so I bought a plane ticket overnight to Atlanta early the next morning. ”
As he spoke, Frank pulled his phone out of his trouser pocket and showed Dante one of the short messages: "Frank, I need help!"
"I received this message yesterday morning, and then, no matter how much I called, the phone couldn't get through, and when I came here from New York, all I saw was an empty house!"
"I checked the text logs, and the last place Arya messaged me was from a branch of the Hunters. Last night, I got some weapons from a friend and raided this branch of the Hunters, and found out what I wanted, that Alia and her daughter had indeed been taken away by the Hunters. By the way, the Hunters are the biggest gang in the area, led by an Italian. ”
With that, Frank reached out and swept away the messy glass shards in the passenger seat, tossing a stack of photos to Dante, who wiped his bloodied hands on the seat and looked at them.
"Some of them were taken by me, some of them were kept in the Hunter Branch, and two of them were taken by the Hunters when they were tracking Marken. ”
Dante looked through the photograph and found Marken, the policeman who had been killed by Dante.
"Dante, you killed my friend, I also shot you in the neck, we are both clear, now, you decide whether you want to join me in rescuing Arya and her daughter, and avenge Marken. ”
"Of course!" Dante quickly agreed, and Dante wanted to find out what was hidden here, and what Frank did coincided with what he had thought earlier.
"But, Frank, why are you so sure I'm going to join you, you know, you broke my neck. ”
Hearing Dante's words, Frank laughed.
"I'm a!"
Frank reached for the detonator in his jacket pocket.
"If you don't agree, I'll just see if that directional blasting TNT under your ass can kill you!"
