Chapter 101 Mutants

Top floor.

Li Fei leaned over the edge of the building, keeping a close eye on the battle below.

The mechanical gorilla and the second-tier psionicist were locked in a fierce battle.

More than thirty enraged gorillas were locked in a fierce battle with the second-tier martial artists of the Sand Wolf Gang, the booming sounds of alloy gauntlets colliding with protective qi filling the air.

In fact, without the enhancement of the Holy Core, these gorillas would not be a match for a second-tier powerhouse based solely on the raw strength of the mechanical bodies. However, Li Fei's killer moves have never been limited to the mechanical legion.

The sniper rifle in his hand had a matte finish that gleamed with a cold, sharp light.

[Shadow Assassin Stealth Sniper Rifle] (Exclusive: Li Fei)

Durability: 100/100

Type: Psionic Weapon Damage: 520-730

Range: 100000 meters; Reload speed: 1.1 seconds; Magazine capacity: 1 round; Special effects:

[Stealth] (Normal): If not detected within five seconds, you can enter stealth mode (no gunshots, no flashes, no blood splatter or impact sound upon hitting a target, only a weak psionic fluctuation).

【Assassination Combo】(Immortal): Hitting a target in stealth mode grants an additional 300 damage. If a vital point is hit, you can immediately reload.

This sniper rifle, combined with the skills of a Tier 1 Gunsmith, allows for charged firing.

If you hit a weak point, you can instantly take away half of a second-tier martial artist's health. With the ability to reload instantly, it's not impossible to kill a second-tier martial artist if their movement is restricted.

Now is the best time.

Li Fei's eyes narrowed, and he instantly issued the order.

On the battlefield, all the enraged gorillas simultaneously activated their shin-mounted jet propulsion modules, leaping five meters into the air and unleashing their [Aerial Descent] attack.

The alloy bodies, weighing over several tons, crashed down one after another, like a series of earthquakes, causing the ground to crack inch by inch, and the shockwaves within a three-meter radius instantly swept across the entire area.

Those second-tier martial artists were shaken so badly that their blood and qi surged, their minds went blank, and their protective qi collapsed instantly.

Now! Li Fei held his breath and pulled the trigger.

The first charged bullet accurately struck a second-tier martial artist between the eyebrows, triggering a vital point and requiring an immediate reload. However, his protective qi was still intact, which withstood the damage. But he was still in a dazed state and hadn't reacted yet. The second bullet followed immediately, killing the second-tier expert instantly, without even being able to scream.

On one side, there was the fearless mechanical gorilla relentlessly harassing him, and on the other side, there was the stealthy sniping from the shadows. With the combined efforts of the Shadow Assassin sniper rifle and the mechanical gorilla, these second-tier martial artists were like headless flies, unable to pinpoint Li Fei's location or break through the enraged gorilla's armor instantly.

After half an hour.

Finally, no more gunshots were heard from downstairs.

The night wind carried the smell of gunpowder into my nostrils.

Li Fei slowly stood up, exhaled softly, and finally dealt with the Sand Wolf Gang. He figured Xinhe would be too busy to take care of itself afterward.

but----

Li Fei glanced at the mechanical gorilla beside him. The person who created this mechanical creation hadn't shown up yet, and those mysterious people certainly wouldn't let him off so easily. The safest way was to first advance to the third tier; only at the third tier could one truly gain a foothold on this planet.

With his mind settled, Li Fei moved his fingertips slightly and directly brought up the system panel.

He had intended to take a quick look at the battle damage and loot, but the moment his eyes fell on the panel, his pupils suddenly lit up, and an undisguised joy welled up in his heart.

Although the battle resulted in significant losses, with 70 enraged gorillas and 176 Swift Shadow mechanical leopards destroyed, and countless materials and parts consumed, the gains far exceeded his expectations.

The experience points section on the panel clearly showed a new figure of 497,000, just one step away from the 500,000 mark.

With the matter settled, Li Fei didn't intend to linger and put his sniper rifle back on his back.

Just as he was about to recall all the remaining mechanical creations through the mechanical link, the dark clouds overhead happened to disperse, revealing a full moon. The moonlight shone down, inadvertently making Ji Fei squint.

"What is that? It's so bright—"

Li Fei squinted, looking at the full moon overhead with a puzzled expression: Wasn't it a full moon just a few days ago? How come it's a full moon again?

However, I didn't think much of it. After all, the planets are different, and we can't use the habits of Earth to view Cangnan Star.

Just then, a sharp pain suddenly shot through the mechanical connection in my mind, and the connection to the enraged gorilla was instantly severed.

"Are there any survivors from the Sand Wolf Gang?"

Li Fei frowned, instantly grabbed his sniper rifle and cocked it, his tactical goggles locking onto the location where the robotic gorilla had lost contact.

At the entrance to Wild Wolf Street, a muscular man with a deformed body stood amidst the wreckage, his arms swollen into hammer-like shapes covered in bluish-black keratin, his body bulging with muscles.

"Is it a sand wolf? He's not dead yet?"

Li Fei was shocked; he never imagined that the Sand Wolf had been transformed into a mutant.

He instantly thought of the human body modification that Luo Luo had mentioned before.

Injecting the genes or active limbs of Star Beasts into the human body can grant powerful abilities even to those who are not gene psychics.

Even if it's modified, so what? At best, it'll only reach the early stage of the second tier.

Li Fei instantly gave the order, and the remaining mechanical gorillas immediately surrounded and pounced on it. He then repositioned his sniper rifle, and the crosshair firmly locked onto the sand wolf's head.

"You should die too—"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled the trigger.

Without any incident, the head of the sand wolf in the mirror exploded like a watermelon, and its massive body crashed to the ground, lifeless.

Phew, this should solve the problem now.

But then, a warning came from the raven overhead.

[WARNING: A large number of enemies are approaching.]

"What's going on?"

Li Fei's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, countless red dots appeared in his vision, rapidly approaching Wolf Street from afar. He immediately turned his scope to look at the nearest red dot.

Then, another mutated human, resembling a sand wolf, charged towards them at a frenzied pace.

"A mutant? Could it be one?"

The thought had barely formed when the scene before my eyes confirmed my guess.

Countless mutated humans surged towards Wolf Street from all the streets and alleys of the settlement like a black tide, densely packed and seemingly endless.

In an instant, all the scattered clues from the previous serial dismemberment case at the police station, the missing persons, and the modified body of the Sand Wolf were completely connected in his mind.

That wasn't the work of a serial killer at all; it was clearly a human modification experiment being carried out in secret by the Xinhe Group!

Looking at the endless horde of mutant humans in his field of vision, Li Fei's heart sank to the bottom.

Xinhe Group has gone mad! They actually used all the residents of the N7 settlement as subjects for human experiments!

.

N7 Police Station, Sheriff's Office.

Lawrence paced anxiously with his hands behind his back.

Antonov was sitting casually in what used to be his office chair.

Hearing the increasingly clear sounds outside the window, he even chuckled, picked at his ear, and said casually, "Lawrence, don't make me dizzy from all this noise. I'm not going to beat around the bush with you. Xinhe Group is handling important business on Wild Wolf Street. You stay in the police station and don't get involved. I'll keep you safe."

Lawrence stopped in his tracks and looked coldly at Antonov. "I never imagined you would end up like this."

"Those who know when to yield are the wise ones," Antonov said with a smug smile.

Just then, there was a sudden, urgent knocking on the door.

"Who is it?" Antonov frowned. "Come in."

:

A police officer, covered in blood and wearing light armor, staggered in and collapsed in front of the desk, his voice trembling: "Boss! Something's wrong! Outside—outside are mutants everywhere! The brothers can't hold on much longer!"
