The player is playing like a god, and has already advanced to Space Marine level at the start.

Lu Xiao, wearing his newly modified Gravis power armor, stood in the center of the living room. The three-meter-tall blue steel giant's head almost touched the ceiling.

He had just moved his mechanical fingers when he heard the sound of wings flapping outside the door.

"This armor is quite nice," Angel Yan's voice drifted in.

Lu Xiao turned around, the door was pushed open, and three women walked in. Yan walked in first, followed by A-Zhui and Mo Yi.

They folded their wings and stood at the entrance, looking up at Lu Xiao. The huge height difference did not frighten them in the slightest; to them, this armor was nothing more than a larger tin can.

"Don't you need to knock?" Lu Xiao's voice came from the helmet speaker, with a muffled metallic sound.

"The door wasn't locked." Yan crossed his arms, his gaze sweeping over the power armor's protective panels. "Besides, we detected a high-energy reaction here, and we thought you were demolishing the house."

Lu Xiao controlled the servo motor to take a step forward, and the floor let out a groan of despair.

"Just finished upgrading my equipment." Lu Xiao looked down at them. "What's up?"

A-Zhui stepped out from behind Yan, staring at the helmet in Lu Xiao's hand, her hand resting on the hilt of the sword at her waist.

"I want to test your mettle," Ah-Zhui said bluntly. "Last time I saw you catch Soton, you were pretty quick. Sister Yan said you're strong, but I don't believe it."

Lu Xiao raised an eyebrow under his helmet and looked at A-Zhui. This angel had a delicate face, but her eyes were full of warlike light.

He knew that Ah Zhui was a battle maniac, possessed an invincible body, and fought like a madman.

Lu Xiao's competitive spirit was also stirred. Now that he was the original Astartes and had the blessing of a third-generation divine body, he wanted to know how the Emperor's Death Angel fared in front of the universe's top warriors.

"Want to fight?" Lu Xiao asked.

"A friendly spar," Ah-Zhui corrected. "Let's stop here. I want to see if this so-called 'Space Marine,' besides being good at business, is actually that tough."

Lu Xiao chuckled.

"OK."

He raised his hand and pointed to the ceiling.

"We can't maneuver here. Let's go outside."

"Come with me."

After finishing speaking, A-Zhui turned and walked out the door. With a flap of her wings, she transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky. Yan and Mo Yi exchanged a glance and followed her.

Lu Xiao took a deep breath, his power backpack roared, the plasma core reached full power, and the anti-gravity module activated. His heavy body instantly became light, and like a blue cannonball, he smashed through the door and chased after it.

……

Three thousand kilometers west of Giant Hero City lies a desolate Gobi Desert. With its endless yellow sands and jagged rocks, it's an ideal battlefield.

Four streaks of light landed one after another.

Ah Zhui folded her wings, stood on a giant rock, and drew her flaming sword. The sword was long and slender, with red runes lighting up, and the surrounding air was distorted by the intense heat.

Yan and Moyi landed on a distant hilltop to watch the battle.

"boom!"

Lu Xiao crashed a hundred meters away from A Zhui, the impact of several tons creating a sandstorm. He slowly straightened up, his blue terracotta armor reflecting a cold, hard luster.

"System, get the sword, get the shield," Lu Xiao commanded in his mind.

[Command confirmed]

Data streams converged in his hands. A storm shield, half a person's height, appeared in his left hand, its surface crackling with electric arcs; in his right hand was a two-meter-long silver-white power sword, its hilt adorned with a golden double-headed eagle emblem. He pressed a switch with his thumb, and with a "hum," the sword was enveloped in a pale blue halo, activating the disintegration force field.

"Not bad," Ah Zhui commented, flicking his wrist and causing the Flaming Sword to burst into flames.

"bring it on."

Before he finished speaking, Ah Zhui's figure disappeared from the spot.

In Lu Xiao's genetically modified senses, time seemed to stretch out, and A-Zhui's rapid, low-speed charge was broken down into slow-motion frames. Her sword tip ploughed a scorched mark in the sand at incredible speed.

Lu Xiao remained motionless until the sword was almost touching his throat before suddenly striking.

The Storm Shield in his left hand slammed out like a wall.

"clang!"

The flaming sword struck the storm shield, the energy colliding and exploding into a blinding ball of light. The immense recoil made Ah Zhui's wrist go numb, feeling as if he had struck a mountain of steel.

Immediately afterwards, a tremendous force came from the shield.

"roll!"

Lu Xiao roared and thrust his shield forward. A-Zhui was thrown into the air by the force, flapping his wings frantically to regain his balance before landing and carving two deep furrows in the sand.

"That's some real strength." Ah-Zhui shook her hand, her eyes turning serious. "That attack just now had an astonishing impact."

Without wasting words, Lu Xiao charged forward. The three-meter-tall steel giant trembled as it ran, the oppressive feeling like that of a main battle tank charging at full speed.

"Again!"

Lu Xiao raised his power sword and, using the momentum, slashed down. This strike had no technique; it was simply fast and heavy, tearing through the air with a piercing whistle as it broke apart the force field.

A-Zhui dared not take the blow head-on, and dodged to the side. The flaming sword slashed upwards, aiming for Lu Xiao's armpit joint.

Lu Xiao twisted his wrist, changing the power sword's slashing motion from a chop to a slice, aiming straight for A-Zhui's neck. This sudden change in speed, completely defying the inertia of heavy weapons, made A-Zhui's pupils shrink, forcing him to abandon his attack and parry with his sword raised.

"Sizzle—"

The two swords clashed, sparks flying. Ah Zhui felt an immense force pressing down on her, her legs went weak, and she almost knelt down. She gritted her teeth, flapped her wings, and slid back along the ground, creating distance.

Lu Xiao pressed his advantage, taking a step forward more than ten meters, and the edge of the Storm Shield smashed towards A Zhui's head like an axe.

Ah Zhui dodged again.

"boom!"

The Storm Shield slammed into the ground, shattering rocks and creating a crater five meters in diameter.

On a distant hilltop, Moi stared in disbelief.

"Sister Yan, it seems like A-Zhui is being suppressed?"

Yan squinted, his insightful eyes gleaming white.

"It's not just a feeling, it's that he was suppressed. Lu Xiao's reaction speed is abnormally fast. A-Zhui's speed is top-notch among the third generation, but in front of him, all his movements were predicted."

"And that shield and sword," Yan pointed to the battlefield. "The force field on that sword can break down molecules. Although A-Zhui's sword is a Flame-class weapon, it's not superior in terms of material. If it clashes head-on, the Flame Sword might break."

"That strong?"

"It's not just about strength," Yan analyzed. "His fighting style is incredibly sophisticated. There are no unnecessary movements; every attack is aimed at killing. This isn't something you can learn through practice; it's something you forge from piles of corpses." Of course, this is something he honed by fighting alongside five divisions of the island nation.

On the battlefield, A-Zhui became increasingly frustrated. She couldn't utilize her speed advantage, and her strength was being overwhelmed. Lu Xiao's defense was impenetrable, and his attacks were wide and sweeping, forcing her to retreat continuously.

"I'm not fighting anymore!"

Suddenly, Ah Zhui shouted and flapped its wings, soaring into the air and hovering there.

"You're on the ground, and I'm in the sky, that's not fair," Ah-Zhui gasped. "Come up here."

Lu Xiao looked up at her.

"OK."

He bent his knees slightly, and the nozzles behind him turned downwards.

"boom!"

Blue plasma flames erupted, and Lu Xiao's massive body rose from the ground, soaring into the sky, his power sword pointing directly at A Zhui.

……

The aircraft carrier, the Giant Warrior.

Alarms blared in the command center.

"Reporting, sir! High-energy reaction detected on Deno III!"

Lianfeng typed rapidly on the keyboard, and on the satellite map that popped up on the big screen, a large area of ​​the Gobi Desert in the western part of Giant Hero City was marked in red.

"Energy source identified: Flame-class weapon signal. There's also... an unknown energy fluctuation." Lianfeng frowned as she looked at the data. "This waveform is very similar to that of Lu Xiao who appeared on Airport Road last time. But the intensity is many times higher."

Dukao stood in front of the control panel, looking at the energy readings, his temples throbbing.

"It's him again." He sighed. "Can't this kid just stay quiet for a few days? He just made a deal with Karl, and now he's fighting with someone else?"

"Based on the signal characteristics of the Blazing-class weapon, it should be an angel." Lianfeng pulled up the waveform comparison chart. "It's most likely Angel Yan or that angel named A-Zhui."

"Angel" Dukao's expression darkened further. If Lu Xiao and the angel fought, regardless of who injured whom, it would be trouble for Earth.

"Can we see the live footage?" Dukao asked.

"No," Lianfeng shook her head. "The energy interference there is too strong; optical satellites and radar can't capture images. They can only detect violent energy collisions."

Dukao paced back and forth, knowing he had to send someone to check. The Super Soldier Squad members were too inexperienced, and Lena's identity was too sensitive. He stopped and picked up the communicator.

"Connect me to Flower Fruit Mountain."

The communication was quickly established, and a chewing sound came from the other end.

"Old Du, what's up?" Sun Wukong's voice was lazy.

"Wukong, something's up." Dukao's tone was serious. "There's a high-energy reaction 3,000 kilometers west of Giant Hero City. It seems like Lu Xiao and the angels are fighting."

"Oh?" The chewing stopped. "That kid in the blue tin suit? Fighting with those birdmen from the angels? Interesting."

"Wukong, I need you to go there," Dukao said. "Check on the situation. If possible, stop them. Earth can't withstand this level of disruption right now."

"Alright then." Sun Wukong's voice became clearer. "I, Old Sun, also wanted to go and meet that kid. Last time, I could smell his murderous aura from eight hundred miles away."

With a whoosh, the communication ended.
