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

The Heavenly Court of Melo, He Xi's private laboratory.

Keisha sat in the armchair, her fingertips tapping the metal armrests, making a monotonous sound.

He Xi stood at the other end of the lab bench, holding an old book in her hand. The cover was badly worn, and the words "Warhammer 40 Art Book" on the cover were blurred, clearly indicating that it had been read many times.

"Is it even possible to manufacture this?"

Keisha raised her chin, gesturing to the Terminator power armor model that had just been analyzed on the screen.

He Xi closed the book and casually tossed it onto the lab table. The book hit the table with a dull thud.

"We can't build it," He Xi said.

Tell me about it.

"The underlying material structure doesn't match." He Xi pulled up two sets of comparison images, tracing the image with her fingertips. "The book mentions that the core of this thing is ceramic steel and refined gold. Ceramic steel is relatively easy to deal with; synthesizing a set of heat-resistant ceramic composite plates will suffice. But this refined gold..."

He Xi frowned and pointed at the molecular model: "In the setting, this thing has an extremely high molecular density. Although our Dark Silver is fast, it is completely different from adamantine in terms of impact resistance and vibration absorption."

Keisha stared at the old book, her fingers pausing.

"Disassembling and reassembling won't work either?"

"The parameters are right there." He Xi picked up a test tube, the liquid inside gleaming coldly. "If we were to forcibly use materials from the Heavenly Court to create the same level of protection, the thickness of this armor would have to be tripled."

"By then, no one will be able to withstand this metal shell. If it's not thickened, it'll just be a shell, with less than half the bulletproof strength of the original."

"What about the cost?"

He Xi turned around and looked out the window: "It's not worth it. The resources to build a set of high-quality replica power armor are enough for me to upgrade the Flame Sword for ten high-ranking angels."

Moreover, the later maintenance is a real pain; those servo muscle fibers inside need to be soaked in a specific bio-electrolyte. We don't have that formula.

……

Suburbs of Huangshi City.

The roar of engines echoed from the horizon. Twenty-six heavy motorcycles rolled over the gravel road, kicking up clouds of dust; clearly, the swarm of Taotie soldiers had been annihilated.

Ahead lay a caravan of refugees. Several dilapidated trucks, belching smoke, were jammed in the middle of the road, and hundreds of people were fleeing with their families.

Three mutated demons were swooping down from the flank of the group.

"Help!" A woman fell into the mud. The demon screamed and charged at her back.

boom! boom! boom!

Three muffled explosions.

Three plumes of blood mist exploded in mid-air. Before the three demons even landed, their bodies were torn apart by the large-caliber bombs, and their severed limbs flew into the grass.

The motorcycle convoy suddenly came to a stop, their tires leaving black scorch marks on the ground.

Lu Xiao dismounted his motorcycle, tucked the explosive pistol back into his waistband, and walked towards the crowd. Behind him, twenty-five giants dismounted in unison.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 20 ...

The oppressive feeling of the steel structure instantly silenced the refugees' cries.

"Is...is it the Super Soldier Corps?" someone in the crowd asked, trembling.

Several soldiers ran over, rifles at the ready. Leading them was a red-haired woman, Du Qiangwei. She stared at the group of blue giants before her, her pupils slightly contracting.

"You are Lu Xiao." Rose lowered the muzzle of her gun. "That's a Space Marine."

Lu Xiao didn't reply. His gaze swept across the crowd, finally settling on the end of the line.

There stood a woman. She was wearing a brown trench coat, her hands in her pockets, her hair was messy, and her face was smeared with ash.

Lu Xiao took off his helmet and hung it on his waist. He looked at the woman, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Liang Bing stared at the twenty-six blue armored figures, her palms sweating.

"What bad luck!" she cursed inwardly. "I ran into these bastards as soon as I stepped out the door."

She lowered her head, hunched her shoulders, and burrowed into the refugee camp, preparing to slip into the woods.

"Ms. Liang Bing," Lu Xiao's voice was fixed on her back, "Where are you headed?"

Liang Bing paused in her tracks. The surrounding refugees scattered as if startled, leaving a large empty space in the middle.

Lu Xiao drew his power sword. The sword hummed, and a blue disintegration field flowed around the blade.

"Pastor!" Lu Xiao called out.

"Here." Old Seven Wei stepped out of the line. He was wearing a skull helmet, and his goggles glowed red.

"Look at that red-haired one," Lu Xiao pointed at Qiangwei, "Don't let her get in the way."

"clear."

Wei Laoqi walked up to Qiangwei. He was two heads taller than Qiangwei, and his shadow completely enveloped her.

"You..." Rose took a half step back.

"I smell it." Wei Laoqi lowered his head, his voice from the loudspeaker carrying a metallic tremor. "The scent of decadence. I'll be keeping an eye on you, Du Qiangwei."

On the other side, Liang Bing turned around and sighed. She smoothed her hair and put on a fawning smile.

"You've mistaken me for someone else, soldier. I'm just an ordinary civilian, fleeing from disaster."

"Ordinary people?"

The jetpack beneath Lu Xiao's feet suddenly erupted.

boom!

A blue afterimage instantly traversed fifty meters. The power sword, accompanied by a deafening roar, slashed down.

Liang Bing's smile froze. She dodged to the side, but the power armor's explosive power was extremely fast.

puff.

The sword slashed diagonally. Liang Bing's body was cut in two from her left shoulder to her right waist. Her upper body slid to the ground, blood soaking the soil.

The surrounding refugees screamed and scattered in all directions.

Lu Xiao didn't sheath his sword, staring at the mangled body on the ground. A ripple of movement appeared at the cut, and the two pieces of the body seemed to be drawn back together as if by a magnet. The wound healed rapidly, leaving not even a scar.

Liang Bing got up from the ground; her trench coat was torn, revealing her skin underneath.

"Damn it!" she cursed. With a wave of her right hand, black smoke enveloped her entire body.

As she dispersed, she changed into a demon leather outfit, and steel wings unfurled on her back.

"Lu Xiao!" Morgana hovered in mid-air, pointing her finger at Lu Xiao. "You have no sportsmanship! You just attack me the moment we meet, without even giving me a proper greeting?"

"Heretics don't need an introduction."

Lu Xiao swung his sword horizontally. Morgana raised her hand and grabbed a dark demon claw, gripping the blade.

clang!

Sparks flew everywhere. A huge shockwave spread out, overturning two trucks parked on the roadside.

"Ah!" Several refugees who hadn't run far were thrown by the blast wave and crashed into trees, dying instantly.

"Look!" Morgana pointed at the corpse and sneered, "This is your so-called justice? You'd disregard the lives of mortals just to kill me? Look over there, that child's leg is broken!"

Lu Xiao didn't even lift his eyelids. He flipped the switch on the sword hilt, and the blue light from the blade intensified.

"There is no sacrifice too great to be accepted. Nor is there betrayal too small to be tolerated."

"You're insane!" Morgana desperately blocked with her giant claws. "You're a complete madman! Even that bitch Keisha isn't as extreme as you!"

Ripples appeared in mid-air as the wormhole opened.

"Queen! Run!" Ator rushed out, wielding the Command Sword. Behind him followed Great Beren and dozens of demons.

"I'm not leaving!" Morgana roared. "I'm going to open this can today!"

"Your Majesty! Don't act rashly!" Ato blocked her way. "The commotion here is too great; if we don't leave now, it'll be too late! I'll cover our retreat!"

Morgana gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Lu Xiao, then glanced at Rose.

"Ato, don't die here." Morgana turned and disappeared into the wormhole, and the space closed.

"Trying to run?" Lu Xiao raised his bomb gun and pulled the trigger at the afterimage of the wormhole.

Boom! Boom!

The bomb exploded in mid-air.

Atto turned around and stood before Lu Xiao, sword in hand. At this moment, he had completed the upgrade of his third-generation divine body.

"Lu Xiao." Ato raised his greatsword. "You got the upper hand in the island nation last time. Today, I'll show you true power."

"Enough with the nonsense." Lu Xiao waved his hand. "Everyone, melee combat."

"For the Emperor!"

Twenty-five warriors simultaneously activated their swords. The roar of the engines drowned out the clamor of the battlefield. They never fought one-on-one.

"Go!" Big Brother roared and slammed his fist down.

Lu Xiao didn't move, guiding spiritual energy into the power sword.

sizzle.

White arcs of electricity danced on the sword.

Lu Xiao opened her eyes, her pupils gleaming with intense white light.

"cut."

He uttered a single word. The power sword swung, and psionic lightning struck Big Ben.

There was no sound of impact. The massive body of the Great Beren was instantly annihilated upon contact with the lightning, vanishing into nothingness.

One sword kill.

Ato stood frozen in place. Before he could react, twenty-five swords were already slashing at him.

Zizizi!

The serrated teeth tore at the divine body, splattering metal fragments and blood.

Ato screamed in agony. A power sword severed his left arm, followed by his right leg. He tried to fight back, but the greatsword only left white marks on his terracotta armor.

Lu Xiao walked over, the tip of his sword smoking.

"A third-generation divine body?" He raised his combat boot and stomped heavily on Ato's chest. The terracotta sole crushed his ribs, making a cracking sound.

"Good firmness."

Lu Xiao raised his sword.

puff.

The sword pierced Ato's skull, unleashing a burst of psionic energy. Ato's head exploded, his body twitched twice, and he died completely.

The battle is over, taking thirty seconds.

Lu Xiao wiped the blood off his sword and turned around.

Not far away, Rose is trying to open a micro-wormhole.

"Don't move." Two Space Marines stepped forward and pressed her into the mud.

"Let me go!" Rose struggled. "I'm from the Super Soldier Squad!"

"It used to be." Old Seven Wei flicked out a black metal ring.

Click.

Specially made shackles locked Rose's wrists.

"Now, you are a prisoner."

Lu Xiao walked over and looked down at the woman in the mud.

"take away."
