Multi-Gene

Chapter 254 - Bandits

David circled back to the guesthouse after coming out from the sewers. It was time to go back to the institute to submit the mission.

After a few minutes of getting ready, he checked when a sky cruiser would pass through the area.

Booking his flight, he paid the usual 200 Gyno points, for the next available flight back to the institution.

David stayed in the city for about half a day before he finally paid for his second stay in the guesthouse and left.

Grabbing his bag, he still didn't use the sky walkers and instead walked all the way out of the city and since he had a smooth sailing passing through the Blackdorm Forest, there was no way he would pass the long path.

Casually clearing off bushes and the bugs that were coming closer to him.

He had been jogging towards the spot the sky cruiser had dropped him off earlier as that was were he would be picked up too.

But then he stopped near a huge boulder. Gazing at his surroundings.

Then he let out a soft chuckle. No matter how hidden someone thought they were, they could never hope to ambush him as he would always feel the person first.

"This is already getting pretty old. Would you come out or should I force you?" He wasn't anywhere close to the institute, so it definitely wasn't someone from institute which means it has to be someone from the city.

The Dorset remained silent but then, three figures walked out from within the forest.

"How did you notice us?" One of them was a tall middle aged man with a thick voice.

The other two were about 20 to 30 years of age. One had a very long beard, while the other had a blond hair tied in a pony tail.

Their steps were incredibly silent, not making the slightest bit of sounds as they walked through the bushes, which showed how skilled their motion technique was.

"What do you guys want?" David didn't bother replying their question and instead asked with his own question. He could clearly recognise one of them from the guesthouse he had stayed in the first time he entered but didn't say anything about it.

"Hm, what do I want?" The man said, while touching his chin in an act of curiosity.

"Now my buddy there, Moville." He pointed at the one with the long beard.

"He has an incredibly sense for money. He can sense a star coin almost a mile away. And when he saw you, he told me something which even I found unbelievable." The middle age man stopped circling around David and stayed still.

"He said there should be about a hundred thousand star coins in that bag of yours. See, of course I don't believe him, but do you mind to let us check if it was actually true? As we also lost star coins of that amount a while back." The man concluded with a nefarious smile, making the other two members chuckle.

David remained expressionless as he responded. "So you are basically here to rob me?"

He actually never thought he would encounter bandits. It made him recollect the time he also did this back during the event.

"No no no. Of course not. How can you say that. We are just here to check if its our money or not." The middle aged man hurriedly corrected David.

"Cut the crap. There is no way I'm letting you anywhere near my backpack." David casually stated as he folded his arms and watched.

The middle aged man gaze darkened as he growled. "Are you certain you want this the hard way?" No matter how he saw it, it was three to one. Three Phasers vs one.

Even if the boy in front of him was a genius, there was no way he would fight three Phasers together without losing which made the man filled with confidence.

And no matter how talented a person might be, he didn't thick David would already be a double gene Phaser.

But David's casual expression made him very uneasy. Which was getting to him. Shaking it off, he shouted with a smirk.

"You asked for it. Kill him!"

The three of them circled around David as they retracted their claws. Their fingers grew almost 10 centimetres long and fur seem to cover their entire bodies.

Their speed was strangely very fast and they immediately approached him from three different sides, sealing all of David's angle of escape.

Swiping at him with their claws and from the nauseating smell coming off of it, it seem to be very poisonous.

"Slash!"

Not daring to be careless, David sidestep, dodging the first and fasted claw headed for his face.

And in a series of after images, he slammed his palm at an even faster speed against one of their chest.

That palm carried the physical power from his body and the formless heat that he had accumulated all this while. It wasn't something a Phaser could take unharmed.

The middle aged man expression changed drastically as he noticed the speed at which David's palm was coming at and the power behind it.

His eyes flashed as he used other arm to parry the attack, hoping to slow down David for the others to have the chance to attack him.

One claw attack was headed for the back of his kidney while the second one for his heart.

The three attacks were timed perfectly. And if it were anybody else, they would find it incredibly difficult to dodge the attacks, not to talk of countering it.

David's body swayed in a series of after images and a claw passed through his back as though he was a phantom while the other claw was as though it was deeply embedded in his chest.

Without slowing down a single second, David's legs moved with incredibly speed.

"Cyclonic steps!"

"Bam! Bam! Bam!" Kicking them all backwards instantly.

They crashed into a tree as they rolled in the floor with blood spilling from their mouths.

But they were strangely quick as they jumped up with an agility similar to a beast and disappeared into the forest.
