Chapter 147: Chapter 147 Application Method
The expected charred corpses did not appear. Instead, a golden, impenetrable bullet wall stood firm.
Countless bullets had combined into a solid shield-like barrier, standing in front of the two foreign enemies.
This is a scene that none had ever witnessed before. Even veterans who have fought wars all their lives have never seen this scene.
"How is this possible!" Marshall's face twisted in shock.
His earlier certainty had turned into self-inflicted humiliation within moments.
'How could such a young kid use his Nen Ability to such an effect? No matter which Ability, there will always be a limit.'
Not to mention the hundreds of grenades that served as cover, it was unimaginable in itself that tens of thousands of bullets could be stopped.
And just now, there were more than thirty or even fifty thousand bullets, but they were all stopped just like that.
If it was a powerful star-ranked Hunter, Marshall might have accepted it. But the other party is just a little kid.
"Have you ever seen... such a Nen Ability?" Even the taciturn Kit could hardly hide the fluctuation in his tone.
The other two Elders did not speak, and their faces looked very grim.
Even if they had seen it before, they wouldn't want to believe it. After all, such a Nen Ability was completely beyond their comprehension.
"Should we continue? That kid's Nen Ability must consume an immense amount of Aura. If we keep pushing, he's bound to exhaust himself." Shabo said bitterly.
Marshall snorted coldly and said viciously: "No matter the cost, we must eliminate both of them."
Meteor City had a principle: anyone who dared attack them would be pursued to the ends of the earth.
…
Inside the wall of bullets, Law breathed a sigh of relief.
When the grenade exploded, he was inevitably frightened. Although he used his domain to block them, the subsequent hail of bullets put great pressure on him. He was afraid that he wouldn't hold out. Fortunately, he successfully blocked it in the end, but it also consumed a lot of his Aura.
"How much longer until the virus takes effect?" Law asked.
He realized that he had underestimated the strength of Meteor City. He didn't expect there would be so many weapons here. If there were a few more waves of this kind of attack, he would probably run out of Aura.
What Law didn't know was that the virus chosen by Sanbica was relatively mild. If it was a deadly virus, even if the effect hadn't been fully exerted, it would still have an impact immediately.
"It will probably take another two minutes." Sanbica replied.
"Is there any way to speed it up?" Law asked.
Sanbica pondered for a moment and said, "Overproduction of adrenaline can make the virus take effect immediately."
"Adrenaline overproduction?"
Law raised his eyebrows, and at this moment, the residents of Meteor City standing on top of the buildings threw hundreds of grenades over again, showing their crazy attitude.
That is Meteor City's attitude towards its enemies, uncompromising. Once identified, they would stop at nothing, no matter the cost, to eliminate the target.
Law looked at the large number of grenades falling from the sky, and felt helpless. He wondered how many weapons Meteor City had asked for from the Mafia?
Boom boom boom!
Hundreds of grenades exploded like fireworks, creating a chain reaction of devastating blasts. The nearby buildings were affected and immediately collapsed into ruins.
When the explosions subsided, smoke billowed outward.
Law and Sanbica were still safe and sound, but the thick wall made up of tens of thousands of bullets had disappeared without a trace, shattered by the explosion.
The three Elders were shocked that so many grenades still failed to kill Law, but they felt destroying the bullet wall was still a progress. Otherwise, with the thick wall blocking their way, they would not be able to hit Law and Sanbica at all.
…
'I won't stay on the defensive forever.'
Law took a deep breath and glanced at the crowd surrounding them coldly. He couldn't count their approximate number, but it was at least more than a thousand, maybe more than two thousand. Among so many people, only a few dozen are Nen Users.
Law can use his Aura to knock out ordinary people, but there are too many people and the range is too wide, so his Aura won't be very effective.
Among the Nen Techniques, there is a technique called En, which is an advanced combination of Ten and Ren. It can allow user to expand their Aura outward in a circular field. And any intruder within its range could be detected.
However, this technique, like Law's domain, becomes more difficult to maintain as the scope of expansion increases. And in theory, the difficulty of operating Law's domain is several times higher than that of En.
The Aura-infused momentum followed the same principle. With more range and number of targets, the effect will drop sharply.
In the current situation, with over two thousand enemies present, Law could only stun around a hundred nearby individuals using his Aura. And it is basically impossible to stun thousands of people.
However, after learning the method to accelerate the virus's effects from Sanbica, Law's thoughts began to stir.
He expanded the range of his Aura. It won't be enough to stun thousands of people, but it is sufficient to make ordinary people within range feel fear.
The effectiveness of this fear was limited since the crowd's numbers could dilute the emotional impact.
But now, with Sanbica's virus at play, as long as the Aura emitted by Law can make people around him feel fear, the virus can take effect immediately.
"Sanbica, let's go."
Law took a step forward, and his Aura emerged spontaneously, spreading rapidly in all directions.
The three Elders on the rooftop and Illumi keenly sensed Law's Aura, which was a form of deterrence...
Since they are all Nen Users, they know the effect of Aura on ordinary people. But since it also depends on environmental factors, the Elders are very calm.
At this time, at the entrance of East District, three people were rushing towards the middle area of East District. They were Machi, Uvogin, and Nobunaga.
They had been waiting near the street's exit for Law and Sanbica to appear, but before they could see them, they heard bursts of explosions coming from East District.
Because they were worried about Law's safety, Machi and the other two decided to go into East District to check on the situation, while the other Troupe's members waited outside.
When they arrived at the periphery of the battlefield, they saw Law and Sanbica surrounded by thousands of people on the street from afar, and their faces changed.
Faced with such overwhelming numbers, all they could feel was helplessness. If they were not surrounded, they might have had room to maneuver.
On the main street, Law had barely released his Aura when he was forced to withdraw it. It's because the enemies had reloaded their weapons and began firing at them again.
Law stopped the incoming bullets once more but refrained from using them to counterattack. It wasn't that he couldn't, but that he was unwilling to do so.
There were too many bullets, and he had already consumed a lot of Aura just to stop them. If he used more Aura to repel the bullets, it would only make his Aura depleted faster. Moreover, the other party knew his counterattack method and would definitely be alert.
With this in mind, Law chose to only stop the bullets without counterattacking. Besides, he had already found a way to knock down the enemies.
"Law, can you hold on?" Sanbica asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, they are out of luck."
Law smiled at Sanbica, then jumped onto the cover made of bullets, facing the enemies who were reloading their guns.
The oppressive Aura he had been preparing surged outward like a gale, sweeping across everyone.
Ordinary people cannot resist the Aura released by a Nen User. If Law wanted them to feel fear, then they will be affected by the Aura and feel fear.
Therefore, at this moment, two thousand, perhaps even three thousand Meteor City's residents suddenly felt an icy dread.
They didn't know why this happened, but they felt deeply frightened just by looking at Law standing there unarmed.
At the same time, their adrenaline levels spiked uncontrollably, and the virus that had invaded their bodies before immediately took effect.
One person suddenly fell to the ground with his body stiff, emitting a confused, questioning sound. The next second, he couldn't even move his mouth and fell into silence.
When one person fell, a second person followed, just like dominoes. Thousands of people present fell to the ground with stiff bodies, as if coordinated. They could not even move their mouths, so they could not make any sound.
The scene descended into eerie silence as the battle formation dissolved in an instant.
This inexplicable phenomenon left the unaffected dozens of Nen Users and Elders visibly shaken.
Even Machi and the other two, as well as Illumi, who was watching the situation on the battlefield, all felt a chilling dread seep into their hearts.
'Just by using his Aura, he knocked down thousands of people?'
