The Genius System Without Equal

Chapter 647: The First Target

Xiao Luo was quite stunned. As a master himself, he could tell that this white man, Ian, was highly skillful as well. He exuded the aura of a ferocious wolf raring to shred everything apart. He smiled viciously and said, “Or else, I’m going to make you regret you were ever born into this world!”

“Is that so?”

Ian cackled, and in the next second, his face turned dark and furious. He flashed his right hand, aiming for Xiao Luo’s neck, and his fingers were formed like an eagle’s claw. His attack was swift and fierce, and his clawed fingers slashed at Xiao Luo with awesome power.

Xiao Luo blew out a quick burst of air, hurriedly bringing his right hand into action, moving in a swift circular motion that left a trail of afterimage. He intercepted Ian’s strike with precision, and when their arms clashed, the impact resounded with a thundering crack. Both their bodies shuddered as they were both thrown back.

POW!

Xiao Luo stomped his right foot into the ground to stop himself from moving back and quickly regained his balance.

Ian staggered back about ten steps before he steadied himself. He then stared at Xiao Luo, still smiling viciously, and said, “I heard you Hua Nation people have mystical powers, so it seems the rumors were true. You’re pretty good.”

“You’re not too shabby either.”

Xiao Luo responded with an indifferent air. He used about forty percent of his power during that first exchange, and this man took it without getting injured. It surprised Xiao Luo somewhat.

Ian still had a smile on his face as he swaggered toward Xiao Luo. “If there’s a chance, I’ll go to Hua Nation and make sure I defeat all of your so-called kung fu masters. I’ll prove that Hua Nation kung fu is nothing but fancy fists and footwork. It’s nothing more than a stage performance performed by clowns.”

Ian’s eyes were filled with hatred and anger, and his words were provocative.

Ian’s scathing words riled up Xiao Luo, who glared at him and said, “I only have one word for you—scram!”

Xiao Luo’s tone was harsh and threatening.

“Haha, haha…”

Ian laughed raucously and patted Xiao Luo on the shoulder. “Buddy, getting angry over a petty matter like this? I’m sure you won’t achieve great things in life!”

At that moment, a yellow convertible car sped toward them from afar and stopped right in front of Xiao Luo.

Xiao Luo immediately recognized the make of the sports car—it was the Lykan Hypersport. There were only seven such cars in the world, and they were produced by the Lebanon company W Motors. It was a luxury sports car, and just the basic model cost sixty million. After customization, the price would be closer to a hundred million dollars.

The price tag ensured that it would remain one of the most exclusive cars in the world, which partly explained why its unique design was such a trend and a statement. The luxury and beauty of the car naturally attracted Huang Ruoran’s attention.

A well-dressed young man was behind the wheels. He waved his hand at Ian and said, “Hey, Ian! How’s it going? Did you make a new friend?”

“Of course.”

Ian responded cockily. He was a charismatic, good-looking man, and undoubtedly, many girls would find him irresistible. “Ms. Huang, we’ll meet again. I’m sure you can tell how much I want to get to know you better. I don’t intend to just make you my girlfriend, but my noble queen.” With that, he hopped into the passenger seat and waved his hand at Xiao Luo. “Buddy, don’t anger me again the next time we meet, or else…”

He didn’t finish his sentence, but his gesture of warning said it all—he swiped his index finger across his throat.

His friend chewed on some gum and laughed with a shake of his head. He then stepped on the accelerator, and the yellow-colored Lykan Hypersport sped off in a flash.

Huang Ruoran had yet to recover from her earlier shock and stared at Xiao Luo with her eyes and mouth wide open.

“This guy doesn’t seem to be a student from this university. To avoid unnecessary trouble, I think it’d be best if you stayed close to Xiaofei and the others, and not leave the school ground. If he comes looking for you again, be sure to call the police immediately. You can also contact me right away, and I’ll respond as soon as I can,” Xiao Luo said. Ian had left him feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Huang Ruoran nodded her head and said, “Hmm, I got it!”

And just like that, her little romantic fantasy with Xiao Luo was over. Somehow, it did not seem as bad as she expected it to be.

…

Washington in the night was dazzling with the neon lights, and it was a stark contrast to the highways on the outskirts of the city.

After leaving Washington University, Xiao Luo called for a taxi and soon arrived at a small park in the western suburbs. His first target lived in a private apartment about one kilometer away.

Adrian.

That was the name of his target. He was a professor teaching biochemistry at Washington University and was the one who provided the core genetic engineering technologies to the American politicians. He was also involved in the genetic modification experiments on humans conducted at the research facility in Ri Nation.

“Sir, do you need me to wait for you?”

The driver asked politely, “There are hardly any taxis around this area.”

“That won’t be necessary.”

Xiao Luo paid the taxi fee, opened the door, and stepped out.

The moment he got out of the taxi, he looked at the new moon. In the next second, he vanished.

The driver casually looked behind and was shocked when he did not see anyone. It seemed like Xiao Luo had disappeared into thin air. He quickly got out of the car and looked around, but no matter where he looked, he found no trace of Xiao Luo.

“Oh my god, did I just bump into a ghost?”

The driver was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat. He quickly got back into his car and drove off quickly.

At that moment, Xiao Luo was already standing at the rooftop of a three-story building that was roughly 12 meters high. Like a leopard that could leap and bound, he ran along the rooftop as fast as lightning and headed toward a brightly lit mansion by the river.

The mansion was well-equipped with surveillance cameras, and security guards were patrolling the premises. But none of this was of any concern to Xiao Luo. He was like a phantom and broke in quietly without making a sound. After receiving information about Adrian’s whereabouts from a security guard, he made his way to the study room on the fourth floor.

His breach did not attract any attention at all.

When he pushed the heavy door open, he saw a man in a suit sitting behind a large oak table. He had a head of white hair and a healthy complexion. It was evident that he took good care of his health and fitness.

Xiao Luo recognized his target immediately, Adrian. He was the man Xiao Luo had to kill tonight.

Adrian realized that someone had broken in. Stunned, he stood up and shouted, “Who are you? What do you want?”

Xiao Luo looked at the picture on the table that Adrian had dropped in front of him. It was an image of the dead test subjects of the failed experiments carried out at the genetic engineering facility in Ri Nation.

He closed the door and said, “I’m sure you’ve heard of the destruction of the research facility in Ri Nation.”

He stepped ominously toward the study table, picked up the photo on the table, and looked at it with interest. The murderous look in his eyes was clear.

Adrian had a look of horror on his face. “Just who in the world are you?” he said.

“I destroyed the facility. So who do you think I might be?” Xiao Luo replied, putting the photo down. He looked up and eyed Adrian with a nasty smile on his face.

“You… You’re the Thousand-Faced Killer!”

Adrian’s eyes opened wide in fear, and sweat started pouring like a waterfall. “You came all the way here to Mei Nation?”

Adrian had known about the destruction of the genetic engineering facility and also heard about the Thousand-Faced Killer. This man was an enigma and had been wreaking havoc in the Ri Nation. But Adrian never thought that the Thousand-Faced Killer would come all the way here. But here he was, standing right in front of him, well and alive. It was like a nightmare that had turned into reality.

It was simply too hard to believe that this Thousand-Faced Killer had managed to find his way here.
