The Urban Dao Child

Yang Dao was rushing off to get out of the civilized region in Icarus’s car and he spotted a lot many people rushing on the sidewalk. Suddenly, the boy found a police vehicle parked in the service lane area and a constable was speaking over a megaphone.

“Please follow the guidelines of the evacuation. Head to your home or the nearest shelters. Do not panic. Those who are indoors, please stay indoors and cooperate with the emergency officials.”

Yang Dao realized that the situation was even more critical than he had initially thought. He parked the car at the side. The traffic was crawling and he couldn’t get away from this place using a vehicle. He walked among the people on the sidewalk and blended into the crowd. His senses were locked onto the three teams heading his way.

He fished out his phone and dialed Laohu Bai’s number. The call connected and the other side responded calmly, “I know why you have called me master. Kaya and Lin had been deployed to take care of the orphanage and they have taken the people to the shelter in the city. Right now we have located a dozen of hyper-human teams.

Although the special forces are not special anymore, the old teams are still acting in line with the old protocols. They are currently in a battle with eight teams. We are trying to track the rest of the teams but nothing has been found yet.”

Yang Dao looked around and found an inconspicuous corner. He walked over and said, “I have found three teams, they are about ten kilometers away from me now. You are free to use your god skills to make sure that the casualties are low. They have attacked us, but I have not yet heard of any casualties. What is going on?”

Laohu Bai said, “There have been casualties. When they raided the borders, they were ruthless, and the counting of the dead is still on. They attacked out of the blue and took down almost the entire frontal force. Second brother took action and dealt with these guys, but the battle consumed his energy and he went to recover after the battle. Sister Yun is now on watch for the anticipated watch. The rules of this world restrict us from taking action with our full forces. But sensing these guys will not be a problem.”

Yang Dao nodded and said, “I will deal with these three teams.”

That said, the boy disconnected the call. He was constantly monitoring the hyper-human teams and he could sense that they were using the terraces to fight and move closer to him. He located an alley at the side and quickly entered inside. There was nobody following him, so he waved his hand and his body floated up in the void.

The area where his car was stuck was very close to the cooperate area. This place had a lot of skyscrapers built into an office space complex. Yang Dao was also going to use the terraces to distance himself from the civilian places. As he flew up, he called RALF.

“Master.” spoke the bot posted in the Dao Courtyard.

“Take every staff member into the basement and lock the door. Leave Luster and Shadow outside.” said the boy.

RALF replied, “Yes, Master.” and then there was silence.

Yang Dao knew that all the teams were going to regroup at the same time and he would be unable to counter them all at once. As he stood on the terrace, he took out his bow and pulled back the string into a full moon.

He turned back and aimed at the team, following his back. The arrow he condensed was not the usual wind source energy arrow, but it was a silver arrow, containing a gloomy aura about itself. Yang Dao saw the void monsters he face and the hyper humans as the same at this moment. He was condensed an arrow of law to test what the effect will be.

With a deep exhaled slowly, he let go of the bowstring and the arrow flew. A ballistic gun may not be able to hit a target five kilometers away however, this arrow of laws could. The reason, it was made of the laws governing nature and was unaffected by things such as gravity, wind speed.

The trajectory of the arrow was not in a straight line. The planet was round, you know, so the trajectory needed to follow at least some rules. Yang Dao shot the arrow in such a way that when the scouter of the hyper0human team looked up, his camera eye did not find the projectile. The sun gave it a cover. The arrow was flying through the void with the sun at its back. No matter how strong the camera was, it could never distinguish between the sun and the light arrow.

…

Three hyper humans were running on a terrace and they would jump over to cross the gap between the terraces. They were all hyper-humans, even stronger than the superhumans. This sort of distance was nothing. Suddenly, the scout in the lead froze. The two strength augmentation type hyper-humans also came to a pause. A second later, the scout began to wither. Starting from the head to toes. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​

The law of light made the arrow reach the target in just a blink, and the law of death made the target wither. The two strength-type hyper-humans had not yet reacted when they also had their heads pierced by the law arrows. Three people withered into nothingness.

…

Yang Dao had found out that his guess was correct. He could use the laws and elements of nature without much hindrance. The reason could be that he was born on this planet naturally and the familiars all popped out of nowhere and were tagged as orphans.

He did not worry much about the reasons and rushed away after dealing with the teams. There were still two teams on his back. The boy did not waste time jumping from terrace to terrace but directly flew up in the sky.

The hyper-humans were now only two kilometers away from his location. The Scouters could see his movements. Yang Dao even took the initiative to wave at them to lure them over. He did not completely fly away.

He glided slowly and landed on the terrace, away from the people. A good cat would only chase a mouse when it can be seen. No hunter would be moving behind an invisible prey. Hyper-human teams were a sort of hunter. Also, Yang Dao needed to make sure that these remote control toys did not harm the people of the city. The chase began, lasting only a few minutes.

Their speed was not slow. They had covered the usual thirty-minute route in just five minutes. While the hyper-humans took small jumps, Yang Dao just had a larger stride to lure them. He rushed onto the sidewalk and then jumped over the wall of the mansion. The mansion was equipped with a security system, so as soon as the two parties jumped over the wall, the alarms sounded.

Yang Dao said, “Dao is ever-changing.” this seemingly random mumble diffused the alarm system.

The hyper-humans surrounded him from all sides. A scout among the six people stepped forward and threw a phone to Yang Dao. The boy was not afraid, but he did not hold the phone in his palm directly. He covered his hand in a glowing green layer of earth source energy.

The phone rang, and he clicked the accept button. He switched on the speaker mode and a calm and indifferent voice sounded from the other side.

“Hello, Mr. Yang Dao.”

The boy did not reply. The voice did not seem to mind it and continued, “I have a proposition for you. Join New Dawn, you will not regret…” however before the voice could complete its words, Yang Dao interrupted him.

“Sorry, who are you again?” he asked.

The other side said, “Your adoptive sister might have told you, Omega.”

Yang Dao nodded and said, “Sorry, I have no interest in your organization. Thank you for your time.” he tightened his grip, and the phone broke. He raised his head and said, “Luster, Shadow. Takedown the targets.”

Aye, he was not ideal when the call was going on. He had already commanded the two leopards to target the Scouters and take them down. While Luster could hide in the shiny surfaces as she was practiced the law of light, the shadow could hide in the dark surfaces thanks to his comprehension of the dark laws.

As soon as Yang Dao spoke, two leopards came out. One hid in the shining sprinkler surface behind a Hyper human while the other hid inside the shadow of his target. The leopards did not have their usual appearance, but they were both as big as a horse.

They could move between light and dark surfaces without coming outside. They had practiced the element of earth and the strength was enough to shred iron. As soon as they appeared, they jumped at the scouts with their mouths open wide. They both slashed at the targets with their claws. The nails were as big as a human palm.. The attack was so fast that the scouts could not even react before they fell on the ground, and only then did their heads detach cmpletely.
