Strange Cards

Chapter 3 The Hunter

After removing the empty magazine, Shigure instantly produced a new full magazine in his hand. He loaded it into his pistol and fired two shots at the woman's jaw.

The woman's jaw was instantly severed, and Shigure also managed to free his hand from the woman's mouth.

Shi Yu casually tore a piece of clothing off the woman and tied it to his left hand. Just as he was about to take Rui Rui away, an explosion in the distance caught his attention.

It was a giant bear in human form, with very obvious human features on its bear face.

In front of him sat a girl in a school uniform, looking dazed. The giant bear noticed the girl, roared, and charged at her.

When the girl tried to leave, she found that her legs were already too weak to obey her commands. Just as the giant bear's paw was about to fall, Shigure's bullet struck the giant bear's arm.

"Hey big oaf, I'm here! Come and get your grandpa!"

The giant bear, clutching its injured arm, glanced in Shigure's direction, roared, and charged towards her.

Shi Yu turned and ran into the ruins. Meanwhile, a girl in a school uniform looked at the figure that had led the giant bear away and found it increasingly familiar. Finally, she said uncertainly.

"Shigure?"

Shigure used the intricate network of roads within the ruins to restrain the giant bear, and with her Remington 870 shotgun, she also taught the giant bear a painful lesson.

The giant bear's left arm had disappeared, and its right arm was limp and hanging down, clearly unable to move.

The bear's chest had many tiny bullet holes, and the shotgun had run out of bullets.

"Give me some armor-piercing slugs so I can one-shot him. Who's going to get a decent load of bird shots?"

As soon as Shi Yu finished speaking, he felt his pockets become bulging. Startled, he quickly reached out to touch them.

When his fingers touched the hard, cold object, a look of ecstatic joy spread across his face—this was the armor-piercing slug he had been dreaming of!

He gripped the shotgun shell tightly in his hand, feeling its heavy weight and the immense power it contained. He couldn't help but feel secretly relieved: "Heh heh, finally! With these armor-piercing slugs, that bastard is going to suffer a lot!"

Shigure's movements were swift and precise. He kept his eyes fixed on the front while busily loading shotgun shells into the chamber. But just then, a sudden tremor made his heart race.

To his astonishment, a building next door collapsed without warning! As the building crumbled, a cloud of dust billowed up, obscuring the sky.

Then, a breathtaking sight appeared before Shigure's eyes. From the billowing dust, an enormous figure suddenly burst forth! Like a moving mountain, it charged towards Shigure's direction with unparalleled momentum. The figure was so huge that Shigure could barely perceive its entirety with the naked eye.

"Holy crap, speak of the devil and he appears!"

The giant bear pounced on Shiyu, and just as it opened its blood-red maw to bite off Shiyu's neck, Shiyu's shotgun was loaded. Shiyu then shoved the barrel into the bear's mouth and fired a shotgun at point-blank range.

The giant bear's head exploded like a watermelon, and then its figure slowly shrank, revealing the human figure.

"Just like that woman, they both use those weird cards to transform."

Just as Shigure's fingers touched the giant bear card that had fallen to the ground, the giant bear card instantly turned into dust and scattered with the wind. At that moment, Shigure's Ace of Spades was also coming to an end.

"What's going on?"

Shigure collapsed to the ground, unconscious from exhaustion, and the pain that had been temporarily suppressed by adrenaline began to surface.

"Come quick, Brother Shiyu is here!"

At this moment, Rui Rui arrived at Shi Yu's side with a group of people in special uniforms. When a tall man carried Shi Yu on his back, the man's expression instantly became serious.

"This child has a strange card on him."

"Nonsense, do you even need to tell me that?"

At this moment, a baby-faced loli wearing a special uniform kicked a headless corpse lying to the side.

"If it weren't for the Mysterious Card, and you said this high school student could take down this guy with the Savage Bear card with his bare hands, we wouldn't need to be hunters anymore, we could just go home and grow sweet potatoes."

"Yu Yan, don't say that."

At this moment, a gentle and refined young man walked over and pointed to the female corpse lying on the ground in the distance.

"This student's cards must be very strong, otherwise someone with a C-rank Riotous Panther and Savage Giant Bear wouldn't have fallen to this student. Moreover, this should be the first time he's encountered cards, otherwise every hunter with cards would have a record of them."

"Hey, if you guys keep talking about this kid, you're really going to die."

The tall man steadied Shi Yu with one hand to prevent him from falling off his back, then pointed to the unconscious Shi Yu behind him.

"I just touched this kid's bones. The bones in his left shoulder are completely shattered, his left forearm was bitten through by that woman with the Rampaging Leopard, and his left upper arm was hit by something falling and is still red and swollen."

"He simply tied himself up with a strip of cloth to stop the bleeding. If he isn't sent back to Sister Liu An for treatment, this kid might become the fastest person in history to die with a strange talisman, without exception."

At this moment, the gentle and refined boy squatted down and took Rui Rui's hand.

"Your mom and dad have been rescued. Shall we take you to the square to meet them?"

Rui Rui glanced in the direction of the square, then looked at Shi Yu, and timidly tugged at Shi Yu's clothes with her little hand.

"Where is Brother Yu then? Will he be alright?"

"I saw blood flowing from his arm, it was terrifying, is he going to die?"

The boy gently patted Rui Rui's head and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, we're just taking your brother Shiyu back for treatment to help him recover. He won't die."

The boy took a small piece of candy out of his pocket and handed it to Rui Rui.

"Trust your brother, okay?"

"it is good."

Rui Rui glanced at Shi Yu with concern before following the boy toward the square. Meanwhile, the little girl and the tall man, who had stayed behind, carried Shi Yu in another direction, chatting as they walked.

"What suit and what rank is this high school student's card? I only have one card, so I can't say I can easily beat those two people who have C-rank cards."

"First of all, you're not that much older than this kid; don't forget you're only a junior in college."

"Secondly, didn't the boss also use the weakest spade cards back then, but he still managed to defeat someone who had an A-rank card?"

"The boss is a trained fighter, this kid is clearly just a high school student, how can they be compared?"

"The eldest brother also came from a high school background."
