Chapter 247 - Insta Kill
Constantine was horrified and immediately moved to escape.
How can he not flee? His foe was definitely some monster class student. The bone sickle he had thrown was even faster than a bullet and more harder than metal.
But his opponent had caught it with his hands and had even crushed it into powder. Hoe strong must one be in order to do that.
"Even if I let you, you can't outrun me." like a moving phantom, David flashed as he appeared in Constantine's path of escape.
"Then you shall die!"
Constantine's eyes immediately turned red as he knew what kind precarious situation he was in. Agitating his muscles, cells and blood, they became even more vibrant and active as genetic power flowed strongly in his body, making him even faster and stronger.
But this also pushed his body to the limits, making him bleed from his orifices.
A sharp screech tote through the air as Constantine's bone blade slashed at David with intense speed and at an unpredictable angle.
"Boom!" "Thump!"
With the sound of several bones being crushed, a body was sent flying, smashing into several trees before coming to a stop.
And from the blood that was spilling out from the victim's mouth, it was clear the person didn't have long to live
Against the bone strike Constantine had betted his life on, David had responded with his fist. His fist strike was like the hurricane, there was no stopping it.
"Too weak."
Withdrawing his fist. David shook his head and his eyes flashed in disappointment.
A Phaser outside of the institute was more wesker than he had imagined. Had anyone heard what he had said, they would just roll their eyes at him.
Constantine was definitely not weak, its just that you are too strong.
Constantine had only advanced to a Phaser when he reached 68 blood revolutions per cycle while David's had definitely surpassed 220 blood revolutions.
That's almost four times stronger. How was this even a match?
'Wait, it could be me who have gotten stronger.'
Eliminating one member of the gang, David could be said to have easily completed the mission the institute had given him, this caused him some disappointment.
But after some thought, he thought it was only logical.
Only the novice students were allowed to take on this mission and as a newly emerged Phaser, since they haven't grasp the complete control and use of their gene, they would struggle to complete this Mission and would at most fight to a draw with Constantine.
Which was why the mission was a perfect fit for them to grow stronger. And gradually get used to it.
"Thank you young sir, for saving my life." Ryder who had just escaped from the clutches of death was grateful and at the same time, he gazed at the young man with admiration.
From his points of view, David had killed Constantine in a single fist strike, and most definitely must be a genius of the institute.
From his perspective, such genius position shouldn't be any inferior to the ambassadors or even the Mayor.
"There's no need to thank me, I'm just simply here to complete a mission." David stated casually and unconsciously went to start searching the body. While taking pictures, and some other evidence.
He found three dark and slightly heavy cards stacked together. They looked like money but that was all David didn't know what it was and just dropped it the side.
"Young sir, don't you need the Star Coins?" Ryder's confused voice sounded from behind him.
David frowned slightly as his gaze went back to the three black cards in the ground. "Star coins, of course I need them."
He was especially swift to respond as he placed the three black cards in his backpack.
"Ambassador Gregory is also rewarding 5000 star coins for each core member of the gang killed. And since you've killed Constantine, you might as well wanna head over to claim your reward money." Ryder suggested.
It wasn't that he didn't want to steal the money and claim the reward, its hmjsut that he would need to cut off Constantine's imprint to claim the reward, which David had just done. So he might as well utilise this opportunity to return the favour.
"Is that so?" David let out a grin as he remembered where he had seen the word Star coins from.
It turns out, it was when he was looking for a mission. It was on a constant mission board. A Mission that could be taken up regardless of one's status.
The mission was exchanging star coins for Gyno points. 2 star coins could be exchanged for 1 Gyno points which means 5000 star coins could be exchanged for 2500 Gyno points.
He obviously wouldn't miss out on free Gyno points.
Now, normal criminal always had a bounty but they were usually of some useless or low bounty reward. But since the Ambassador had increased the bounty, its obvious that this gang had angered the ambassador greatly.
With a grin, David followed Ryder to retrieve the star coins.

It was late at night when David was done retrieving the star coins. He walked through the crowed street of Seadorm City.
It was crowded and filled with incessant chatter and noises.
Spoting a large guesthouse close to him, David entered without hesitation as he needed a place to rest for the night.
As it was the largest guesthouse in the city and their were several Phasers and Spryhers inside the building.
As David entered into the guesthouse, he attracted quite a few attention. Those veterans who were having food at the bar had traces of doubt on their faces as they spotted the incredibly young man with a huge Axe on his back that seem to not bother his movements in the slightest.
Such a young man that hadn't even grown much hair, been outside during this time at night. He was either particularly strong or just reckless.
Taking his seat, "What would you like mister?" A shy female's voice sounded out from in front of him as he ws observing his surroundings with curiosity.
