The burnt offering has enabled the branding fire to use the brander's rage as fuel for combustion.
coax!
The red carpet was abruptly covered by crooked and distorted fire-shaped branding marks. A middle-aged man standing among them, clutching his fractured left arm, stared blankly at the high-temperature branding marks on his palms, chest, and eyeballs.
Chi Chi Chi.
The intense heat that covered half of his body caused the middle-aged man to scream in agony, and he immediately found himself at a disadvantage in his fight with Du Jue.
Seize the opportunity to detonate decisively, and smash the crusher in your hand with all your might.
Swish!
A living person was instantly transformed into a sky full of sparks, and the fiery stars in the sky reflected the stunned crowd below, all mental activity interrupted by this artificial spectacle.

Chapter 158 Playing House
He firmly grasped the crusher, which was covered in frozen bits of meat, and prevented anyone from carelessly fanning away the sparks in front of the black veil. Even with his eyes closed, he made everyone lower their heads in terror.
Even Luo Jia and Sonia on the second floor were stunned to see the short battle end so simply and brutally. This was completely different from the difficult and arduous battle they had expected, and there wasn't even a single casualty!
"Who the hell are you?!"
Luo Jia, who had one foot in the air, squatted down, holding onto the irregular gap, staring at Du Jue, who was cleaning up the run-over with a tense yet complicated expression.
"I'm just a babysitter passing by. Find me the target and you can leave. I have no interest in being your babysitter. If there are too many middle finger men coming for revenge, I won't bother saving you."
Luo Jia immediately turned to Sonia and said unhappily, "Hey, you can find that target, right? Don't keep saying you're waiting for an opportunity!"
"Of course, I know about Eveno's several secret warehouses besides the manor. If the target really exists, I can bring it over in an hour at most. After all, Eveno is so arrogant that she doesn't think the people here have the courage to resist."
After confirming that Shengyu was taking action, Luo Jia looked at Du Jue below with a hint of hesitation. Her fair face, flushed in the cold wind, showed obvious hesitation and struggle. "Hey, you don't really need to stay here. With your strength, you can just grab a few people and go find them yourself. Middle Finger definitely can't stop you!"
At this moment, Du Jue was still staring down at the communicator on the ground, which was lit up, with only a short message on the screen.
[Item 1, Section 1, Column A]
"none of your business!"
Ignoring such irrelevant questions, I reached for the communicator and discovered that the input method could be adjusted to three scroll wheels. As I scrolled, different revenge methods would be displayed. For example, the third and fourth items, in column G, involved striking the victim's abdomen three times with the body.
This is probably how the middle finger categorizes hatred. Middle-aged people should have a more detailed ledger of grudges, but unfortunately, it has already turned into ashes along with the body.
Du would scoff at the gangsters' meticulous approach to revenge, and most officials would probably resort to fabricated charges to escalate the revenge to the death penalty or higher.
Luo Jia, however, was somewhat persistent as she got down and approached Du Jue. She stepped on the ground covered with the flesh and blood of his middle finger before carefully speaking: "This is the first time I've seen someone like you. Everyone does bad things and puts on a good face. I've never heard of doing good things and putting on a bad face. Could it be that you also come from this back alley?"
"Ugh!"
The piercing scream immediately made Du Jue and Luo Jia turn around in confusion, and they immediately saw a man and a woman lying on the ground on the right side of the street, their blood staining the two fallen roadblocks next to them.
“Brother Aken, Brother Abbot, we have arrived at the location, but it seems we haven’t found any trace of our brothers and sisters.”
The middle finger member with the rooster-like hairstyle sneered as he lifted his fur coat to reveal a locked iron chain.
Bald Aken, exhaling puffs of white breath, glared at the crowd, clearly displeased that they were still busy searching for something. "Hey! You underestimate the middle finger? Do you know what the punishment is?"
Luo Jia gripped her weapon tightly warily, and immediately looked at Du Jue, only to find that Du Jue was staring straight at her.
"I say, do you really think of me as a kind-hearted babysitter? Weren't those two guys one of the reasons you chopped off Eveno's head? What are you protecting now? Are you playing house with someone, you gifted Miss Luo Jia?"
"Absolutely not!"
Du Jue watched quietly as Luo Jia rushed forward, then turned around and instructed Sonia, who was calmly directing her subordinates, to keep an eye on her suitcase.
It must be said that Luo Jia's innate superhuman strength is indeed remarkable; he was able to fight the rooster-headed man to a standstill, but unfortunately, there was more than one opponent.
Before Luo Jia, who had forced back the rooster-headed man with an axe blow, could show off to the onlookers, he felt a tangible killing intent pressing down from his right side. Aken's iron fist, covered in vengeance tattoos, mercilessly pierced through the air.
boom!
Luo Jia's pride and joy was once again defeated head-on. After all, the middle finger cadre possessed core technology. She was sent flying backward, and even the giant axe slipped from her hand.
puff.
Du Jue gently raised his hand and grabbed Luo Jia's left shoulder, stopping him abruptly. He pursed his lips and said, "It seems you're not talented enough. Go back and practice some more."
Arken, who was chasing after the enemy, was forced back five steps by the downward-slashing spiral spear before he could finally look at Du Jue.
Looking at her trembling hands, Luo Jia felt that although she had made up her mind when she approached the manor, her mind and body were now wavering. She was simply unable to face these things that were beyond her control.
The middle finger's power shattered all her illusions. If it weren't for the mysteriously appearing finisher, everyone would have been killed by her. The bloody reality made her retreat in pain, and then she asked Du Jue for help: "What should I do?"
"escape."
Luo Jia looked blankly at Sonia behind him, and the short-haired white man said the same thing: "Run away."
So she suppressed her other impulses and dragged the dying man and woman away from the ground.
Du Jue glanced at the thirty people who had arrived with great interest. Among them were two leaders with similar strength to the middle-aged man from before. The young man's strength was obviously overwhelming for a normal third-tier finisher, so it was no wonder that Luo Jia was quickly defeated.
It's no exaggeration to say that such a lineup, if started independently, would be the end point for most gangs, but for Five Fingers, it's just branch members and cadres.
"What are you doing? I just told you not to wear a fur coat to cover your uniform. Now the henchmen don't even recognize the middle finger anymore."
Arken spat and complained, while Abbot behind him stared at Du Jue with a furrowed brow.
“Something seems off, Arken. Isn’t this guy dressed like that rising star of the finishing touches? Didn’t we see his illustration after the last LaGou meeting? The magazine even analyzed that he was that big shot’s illegitimate son.”
The injured rooster-haired man next to him got a headache when he saw his two older brothers gossiping. He could only interrupt as usual: "Young brother, that matter hasn't been resolved yet. It will be troublesome to chase after those guys if they escape."
Arken's expression turned serious. "I'm too lazy to keep arguing. Since some of our brothers and sisters have run into trouble here, they can't escape responsibility. Let's take revenge on them all!"
Tear!
Before the rooster-headed guy at the front could even scream, he was ground into mincemeat by two giant workshop weapons that came flying at him in a crisscrossing pattern, and Du's displeased voice rang out.
"Are you guys playing house with me, or is your middle finger the type that likes to leave a last message before it dies?"
"you!"
Congratulations on your promotion in the Sixth Association!

Chapter 159 Tanya.
Du Jue was somewhat surprised that Shao had managed to get his promotion at this time. He immediately noticed a faint foreign object in his throat, like a small, barely noticeable fishbone stuck in his throat.
Bang!
The three middle-finger members immediately straightened the thick iron chain and coordinated to surround Du Jue. Aken, behind them, swung the chain covered with iron locks and hurled it at Du Jue.
Boom!
The saw teeth severed the incoming chain with unparalleled force, and the uncontrollable, excessive force tore off the arms of the three younger brothers, twisting and deforming their bodies as well.
Du Jue swung his spiral spear with all his might, and the locked meteor hammer was immediately deflected. The next moment, the two younger brothers and the rest of the group had closed to within five steps of him.
"Look at you, don't you have three heads and six arms? You can hold us off all by yourself!"
puff!
The extreme weapon, designed for maximum size and weight, instantly crushed the heads of countless members of the Middle Finger group, its red and white liquid splashing into the air like ribbons.
The gladiator exoskeleton was instantly covered in countless wounds, with several large gashes oozing glaring blood.
The hidden dragon should not be used!
Along with the excruciating pain came a searing heat; Du Jue felt as if boiling water was being poured into his chest, his heart numbing from the heat.
Hey!
I didn't know it would be this popular!
Seeing that Abbott and Arken were throwing punches simultaneously under the cover of their younger brothers' feints, and the barbed chains wrapped around their arms made obvious hollow popping sounds, Du Jue decisively withdrew his two heavy weapons and grabbed the Blood-Nourishing Sword.
Time, stop!
The heat in his chest cooled down quickly, and Du Jue saw a view he had never seen before.
The metal chains reflected the neon lights, and countless fine, continuous smooth surfaces were filled with gradient and intermittent colors and patterns. The wet, golden molars and the flying hair gave people the illusion of being in a jelly world.
But Du Jue immediately focused his mind, and even the countless eyes in front of him, like sparkling gems, could not distract him in the slightest.
Swish!
With the Blood-Nourishing Sword drawn, Du Jue gritted his teeth and relentlessly pushed his body to its limits. Instantly, his orange-red figure flashed across most of the battlefield, and streams of fresh, still-flowing blood stagnated in the air until their temperature dropped to zero at an alarming rate.
"Ugh!"
"Uh, ho ho!"
Sonia, who was watching the battle from the manor entrance, had his brows furrowed into a deep frown. The speed of this Wendo finisher was something he had never seen in his entire life of traveling through cities; it was so fast that even his middle finger brother hadn't been able to react.
Arken retreated in horror, hastily dodging the final blow from Du Jue. Out of the corner of his eye, he was horrified to discover that most of his younger brothers had already been beheaded, while Abbott closed his bleeding right eye in grief and indignation.
"So many, so many brothers and sisters!"
With a ruthless rip, he gouged out the punctured eyeball, and with a clenched fist full of hatred, the eyeball burst out with a large amount of fluid, and he charged at Du Jue with a desperate, reckless attack.
Boom!
The exoskeleton was shattered by the fist with the iron ring. Du Jue was unable to dodge in time and was knocked backward and sideways. He immediately used the new heat to accelerate time, raised his hand and stabbed the sword through Aibo's empty right eye socket. He immediately released the hilt of the sword, turned around and stood up straight.
Fortunately, he had the high-speed movement damage reduction talent he obtained from the Iron Knights, and once he entered the time acceleration state, he was practically indestructible!
However, what came towards him was Arken, who charged forward and threw a punch. He already understood why the previous members of the Middle Finger gang had died so quickly and cleanly, but he would never be afraid or hesitate in the face of revenge. He roared with all his might, "Middle Finger, I will remember everything!"
Bang!
What threw Arken into disarray was the golden knuckle duster that blocked his full-force attack. The terrifying impact instantly snapped the golden chain on his arm inch by inch, but he continued to roar relentlessly, "This debt will be settled!"
Du Jue, who had put away his violent brass knuckles, immediately realized that the other party also had high-level workshop items. No wonder his sword hadn't pierced Aibo's chest just now; otherwise, there would have been no need to waste time on his right eye.
"Two target items found! We must evacuate!"
Seeing that only Arken remained of the Middle Finger visitors, Sonia became even more nervous, because this undoubtedly meant that she had a blood feud with the Northern Middle Finger. Even a drunkard who had drunk too much vodka knew that this was a fight to the death.
"Packaging and packing."
The moment Du Jue turned to give the order, Aken seized the opportunity to launch another fierce attack, but suddenly noticed the grenade that Du Jue had thrown.
Chi Chi.
A thick fog rolled in.
Boom!
Arken's body slammed into the manor wall like a cannonball, instantly collapsing two walls. He lay on the ground, coughing up blood, trying to get up, and made no attempt to hide his hatred when he saw Du Jue approaching.
"No way, middle finger!"
Before Aken could finish speaking, he vomited up fragments of his internal organs and staggered towards Du Jue.
laugh!
With a single, fatal blow, the Blood-Nourishing Sword greedily absorbed blood to fill the pits and nicks in its blade.
I don't know if it's just psychological, but avoiding the blood of a strong person makes the Blood-Nourishing Sword even sharper and harder after repair, while it doesn't work as well with ordinary thugs.
In front of the manor.
"Sanchao, now I understand why you guys are so generous. It turns out the people who robbed your goods were all five-fingers level guys. This commission should be upgraded to the City Star level, right?"
"I see. Please take photos and videos of the scene, and I will communicate with my superiors."
Du Ju, wearing headphones, kicked away yet another middle fingered corpse, took out a pneumatic syringe and gave himself several pneumatic injections before he could relax a little. Looking up, he unexpectedly saw Luo Jia watching him from a distance in the alley.
It was almost late at night, so I went to the nest to catch a ride back. As for whether Middle Finger would be distracted by chasing down those who had already escaped, I couldn't care less.
"Next up is Gan Jian of Vacuum Fist. She very conspicuously led her men to attack K Company's transport convoy. I'll send you the details later."
