Chapter 97 The Power of the "Copper Corpse"
The Mafia's attack on the "Three Brotherhood" went very smoothly. By the time the eight machine gunners opened fire, they had already wiped out most of the enemy's manpower.
In fact, this was all thanks to Carter's excellent information network and his quick thinking. Although two groups of Mafia members were killed, after receiving news of the "Three Brotherhood," he immediately organized his forces and invited his boss to come and keep things under control.
Then, with lightning speed, they surrounded all the elite members of the "Three Brotherhood" at 15 Eric Street and launched an attack. The eight grenades basically blew everyone inside away.
Number 15 was a wide shop with huge display windows, but display windows couldn't stop bullets. Submachine guns were extremely lethal in such an environment.
The "Three Brotherhood" had also set up sentries outside, but after the eight bombardiers finished throwing their grenades, they immediately drew their revolvers and opened fire on the sentries.
The two sides engaged in a back-and-forth gunfight. Although the gunfire was constant, there were no casualties because both sides had cover.
The carriages that came up later used the carriages as cover, and the members quickly got off and rushed into number 15 to finish off the enemy.
Seeing this, Hugh remarked, "Their teamwork looks even more skillful than that of ordinary soldiers."
Raphael laughed and said, "Of course, the soldiers get paid a salary, but they get commissions."
Raphael was always very generous to his subordinates, and as his territory expanded, everyone from the leaders to the elite gang members benefited.
Moreover, Raphael has always placed great importance on providing compensation for the deceased. Whether injured or disabled, he would provide substantial compensation. In the event of death, he would also take care of the deceased's family, at least finding stable employment for the deceased's wife or eldest son.
Such "treatment" is unprecedented in the underworld. Therefore, these dozen or so truckloads of elite gang members are truly willing to risk their lives for their boss.
The battle inside was quickly coming to an end. Of the enemy's three most troublesome extraordinary individuals, one was killed by a submachine gun, and the other two were trapped in the room.
These three extraordinary individuals are three cousins, which is why the gang is called the "Three Brothers."
Raphael's three "Bronze Houses" were dealing with the Sequence 8 "Barbarian" Wilbert, while Carter was directing three other Beyonder leaders against the Sequence 9.
Raphael was happy to participate in this battle mainly because he wanted to test the strength and speed of those "Copper Corpses". According to the description of the "Three Techniques of Corpse Refining", the "Copper Corpses" probably have the physique of a Sequence 9 Extraordinary being who is good at fighting, and they are also unaware of pain.
This is much stronger than ordinary zombies. Raphael had dealt with zombies more than once before. Although they were also very strong, most of them were still within the range of normal people.
In other words, he is stronger than an ordinary person, but he is still far from being an extraordinary person.
At this moment, Raphael was manipulating the "Copper Corpse" and approaching the "Barbarian" Wibert. Thanks to the corpse refining method provided by the "Three Secrets of Corpse Refining", these three living corpses looked no different from real people.
Unaware that his three opponents were undead, Wilbert made a fatal mistake by plunging a short sword into the chest of a "Bronze House" in the hopes of defeating the enemy and breaking through the encirclement.
But the "copper corpse" that was stabbed did not retreat; instead, it stepped forward and hugged the "savage" Wilbert.
The other two "bronze doors" immediately stepped forward, pulled out daggers, and stabbed Wilbert in the back.
However, the "barbarian" was also quite strong. Wilbert broke free from the "copper corpse's" embrace, and then his hands grabbed the two daggers that the two "copper corpses" were thrusting at him.
They began to test their strength; "Barbarian" Wibert's face turned red, while the expressions of the two undead remained unchanged.
It's not that they still have the energy, but rather that they can't make any other expressions.
puff~
"Copper Door," who had just been stabbed in the chest, pulled out Wilbert's short sword and then stabbed it into Wilbert's back.
The three "bronze doors" surrounded the other person and ripped out their heart.
Although slicing open the other person's neck would be more efficient, it would leave a noticeable scar on the neck when Raphael made the "Iron House," making it difficult to disguise.
Another Sequence 9 was also surrounded and killed by Carter and his group, but it wasn't as bloody as this one.
Raphael, still standing on the street, smiled and said, "Very good, clean up the battlefield!"
As he spoke, he beckoned Xiu to come in, and the two of them stepped over the corpses to enter a small room.
The three "copper corpses" had already carried in the leader of the "Three Brotherhood," also known as "Barbarian" Wilbert. Raphael took out the "Spirit Bracelet" and handed it to Hugh, so that the two of them could enter the "Spirit" state together.
After exchanging glances, Raphael began to use his abilities to "communicate with spirits," while Hugh followed along using a magical artifact.
The entire room suddenly became surreal, shrouded in mist. Within the mist, Wilbert's spirit rose from the corpse, his eyes vacant and his expression dazed. Raphael seized the opportunity to ask, "Whom do you serve?"
The surrounding gray fog churned, but no images appeared. Wilbert's expression was pained, as if the answer to this question would cause him great harm.
Raphael immediately realized that this was the secret mechanism of that extraordinary organization, and if Wilbert was allowed to continue "recalling," the spirit would likely be immediately destroyed by this secret mechanism.
So he chuckled and said, "That question was just a warm-up. I knew you'd make a fool of yourself on these kinds of things. If you can't remember, just forget it."
Raphael turned and asked, "Why are you gathering men to attack the Mafia?"
The gray fog swirled, revealing a scene from Wilbert's perspective. Several subordinates stood before him, and Wilbert exclaimed, "What? Those men are from the Mafia?"
"Report to Mr. Paul immediately!"
The image suddenly blurred, but then a new image appeared, showing a subordinate with a scar on his face reporting to his superior alone: "Mr. Paul asked me to give you this letter."
The letter was opened, and it read: "To determine whether we have been exposed, launch a full-scale attack on the Mafia. Kazari and I will also be there. If you discover that MI9 or the police are helping the Mafia, ignore those gang members and get out of there immediately."
Raphael was taken aback: Paul? That reminds me of a loser alien.
Then Raphael asked who Paul was, but as expected, he got no answer.
He immediately exited the psychic state and sent the three "copper doors" to find the corpse with the scar on its face.
Xiu also stepped back, without asking anything.
Soon the "Copper Corpse" brought the body that had delivered the message earlier. Raphael and Hugh then performed "spiritual communication" again, asking him where he had gone to deliver the message to Mr. Paul.
Although he still hadn't met the so-called Mr. Paul, Raphael saw the scarred-face man enter the Kent Machine Factory.
Raphael immediately understood what was going on. It turned out that his previous investigation into the Kent Machine Factory, which he had helped Dawn Dantes with, had been discovered by the people at the machine factory.
So they had the Three Brotherhood kill three Mafia members, including Bauer, who were gathering intelligence at the time. In order to confirm whether they had been exposed, they ordered the Three Brotherhood to attack the Mafia.
