Cyber ​​God: Abyss Walker

"Someone's been here... Holy crap!"

The moment Wang Yu noticed the presence of someone with a parasite implanted in their brain being attracted, he immediately tried to warn Ling Qi, but his words quickly turned into profanity.

It's too fast. The speed at which that being is approaching is simply too fast. This is not a speed that humans with cybernetic enhancements can achieve, but rather a speed that can only be reached with the help of an external vehicle.

"boom!"

The deafening roar of the engine and the sound of air blasting against the ground reached Wang Yu's ears. He immediately shoved the Greedy Silver Serpent revolver he had already pulled out back into his hand. He really hadn't expected the other party to use this kind of attack.

On the road leading into the inner ring of the abandoned city, a hovercar, as if possessed, pushed aside all the vehicles blocking its way, accelerating to its maximum speed, and viciously charged towards Wang Yu.

At this speed and distance, dodging was impossible. The hovercar's ability to change direction was far superior to that of cars from Wang Yu's era; a simple adjustment was enough to lock onto him as he tried to dodge.

"Well!"

He covered his forehead, found the connection between himself and the parasite, and then, following that connection with the attacker, used the parasite's enhanced abilities from the second-generation modification surgery to forcefully send an impact through.

"laugh!"

The hovercar's brakes emitted a piercing screech, its speed suddenly decreased, and even the steering wheel veered wildly due to the violent change in direction. The entire car began to spin, as if the driver inside had suddenly gone mad and violently jerked the steering wheel, which was indeed the case.

Using the telepathic connection between the parasites, Wang Yu forcibly intervened in the driver's attempt to kill him. The brakes were forced on when the driver was unable to resist, and the erratic turning of the steering wheel caused the entire car to go out of control in an instant.

Despite this, the slowing and out-of-control car still spun towards Wang Yu and Ling Qi, its rear end carrying dangerous kinetic energy as it slammed into Wang Yu, who was unable to dodge quickly due to the parasite driving it.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The front of the car slammed into the guardrail of the artificial river first, causing the car to decelerate further out of control. The rear of the car then bounced off and hit the driver's target, but the sound was not the sound of flesh hitting metal, but the roar of metal hitting metal.

"Mutation start!"

The loud warning sound brought Wang Yu, who had been thrown into the air, back to his senses. Just a second before the car hit them, Ling Qi turned around and grabbed him. The rear of the out-of-control vehicle struck Ling Qi, who was standing in front of him.

The MK1's sturdy body absorbed most of Wang Yu's kinetic energy, while Ling Qi's bionic skin, with its flexibility unlike that of the metal body, further mitigated the impact on Wang Yu. The two of them, along with the out-of-control car, flew up and plummeted into the artificial river below.

Wang Yu pulled out the bottle containing the turbid blue liquid and shoved it into the "transformation device." The abnormal contaminant that had been extracted from Wang Yu's body was then pumped back into his body through the steady-state mutation catalyst.

"Thump!"

"Clang!"

Two splashes of water were heard, one from the hovercar and the other from Wang Yu and Ling Qi. Water splashed everywhere, and the five- or six-meter-deep river with a fairly fast current quickly submerged the vehicles and people.

"Bang!"

The car door was kicked open, and a tall man whose entire body had been obviously cybernetically modified swam out. His electronic eyes swiveled and quickly locked onto his target, the guy who filled his heart with the desire to kill and seize.

To be honest, Liu Can hadn't felt this kind of stimulation in a long time. The large amount of drugs he had taken had caused irreversible damage to his nerves, resulting in extensive atrophy and degeneration, which was a common and incurable disease in the abandoned city.

People with this condition cannot feel most normal stimuli, and therefore, when they do experience actual pleasure, they become extremely frenzied.

Raising its hand, the prosthetic arm, which looked no different from a normal human arm, flipped up at the wrist, revealing a complex mechanical structure inside. The internal energy circuits and stacked coils began to oscillate at a high frequency, and the energy release port extended into a cannon barrel, aiming at Wang Yu, who was still adjusting his posture in the water in the distance.

"Cough cough, phew, you son of a bitch!"

The left hand, now transformed into a fish-man due to the abnormal pollution, dug its sharp claws into its own neck. Strands of blood spread in the river water and were quickly washed away, while the abnormal pollution had already invaded through the wound Wang Yu had created himself, causing gill-like organs similar to those of a fish-man to proliferate.

The abnormal pollution in the abyss would take time to spread, so Wang Yu had no choice but to do this in order to gain the ability to breathe underwater immediately. However, while he was still getting used to the discomfort of water entering his lungs and using his new organs to breathe, Liu Can's prosthetic hand cannon had already been aimed at Wang Yu.

Upon seeing the opponent's prosthetic hand cannon model, Wang Yu couldn't help but swear again. "Single-person model shockwave cannon. This thing can smash an ordinary brick wall with one shot on the shore, and the recoil will send the user flying seven or eight meters backward."

It's the same principle as using a grenade or other explosive device in water. The water will amplify the power of the device several times over. If this shot is fired, not only will Wang Yu die, but the guy who fired it will also die, and in an unimaginably gruesome way.

"You're crazy, aren't you? Just you wait. I finally managed to temporarily suppress my inspiration, and you son of a bitch want me to regain it, huh?"

After a brief moment of shock, Wang Yu's emotions quickly transformed into a raging fury. The influence of the parasite amplified this rage, further transforming it into a sharp killing intent.

"May everything return to nothingness..."

Pressing his hand down, Wang Yu pointed at Liu Can, whose prosthetic impact cannon was poised to fire in the distance, while chanting the incantation corresponding to eternal nothingness. In his mind, he recalled the desolate place he had seen during the ritual.

The eternally lifeless mark on his arm seemed to twitch as if it were alive, and the corresponding abnormal pollution appeared out of nowhere. At this moment, everything in front of Wang Yu's eyes and the perception of his other senses were completely replaced by nothingness, and he could no longer perceive anything in the outside world.

"Hmm, it broke at this time?"

Liu Can asked in bewilderment, "The energy has clearly been fully charged, but the shockwave cannon, which was ready to be unleashed, suddenly exploded with an arc of electricity and quickly fell silent, with all the energy that had been stored up leaking out."

"Huff, huff..."

Sweating profusely, Wang Yu used his proliferating gills to swallow water and obtain oxygen. He struggled to break free from that deathly silence; the feeling of everything disappearing was unbearable, and his temporarily descended inspiration had returned to its origin.

The Ritual of Descent activates anything containing abnormal pollution, indiscriminately affecting friend or foe, and may trigger abnormal phenomena in the corresponding great being. Since both dice have been consumed, Wang Yu can only use this ritual, and he himself, bearing the mark of eternal death, is the material for the ritual.

"That deathly silence is becoming more and more real. I don't know if I'll be able to break free next time. You son of a bitch, you still want to breathe? Die!"

Shaking his head violently to break free from the void, Wang Yu looked at Liu Can, who was slapping his prosthetic arm but unable to retract it. Liu Can had been in the water for more than thirty seconds, and his body, which had not undergone the corresponding modifications, was beginning to thirst for oxygen.

The Greedy Silver Serpent Revolver, being a revolver, couldn't exert much power underwater. Wang Yu immediately began swimming towards the opponent, intending to eliminate Liu Can at close range.

Using both hands and feet, and with the added boost from his telekinesis, Wang Yu, covered in scales and with webbed hands, moved as nimbly as a real fish, following the current and rushing toward his target at an extremely fast speed.

"This guy..."

Liu Can was pedaling his hovercar, which had plunged into the artificial river, trying to reach the surface so that his lungs could take in enough air to support his movements, when he saw Wang Yu rushing towards him like a water ghost, and immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Snapped!"

Just as Liu Can was gaining momentum by stepping onto the roof of the car, his left leg was grabbed by Wang Yu's fish-man-like arm, and he was then dragged forcefully underwater. In the water, Wang Yu, who had already changed form, was much more agile and powerful than his opponent. He would not allow Liu Can to successfully breathe the air he did not need.

"Bang!"

The other leg, modified with prosthetics, slammed down on Wang Yu. Wang Yu quickly swung his body to dodge, but missed and hit the roof of the hovering vehicle. The powerful force from the hydraulic booster created a deep dent in the roof and provided Liu Can with ample upward momentum, pulling Wang Yu upward as well.

"Bang!"

Without hesitation, Wang Yu took the Greedy Silver Serpent revolver from his waist and fired a shot at Liu Can's forehead. Just because the revolver had no power at that distance didn't mean the opponent could take a shot at close range.

However, as the bullet pierced the chamber, time around him suddenly slowed down. The escapee's activation foreshadowed an impending danger unknown to Wang Yu. His thoughts, fueled by intense emotions, became extremely swift, and he completely ignored the escapee's warnings, maintaining his current decision.

"Bang!"

The bullet pierced through the water, and although most of its force was weakened, it still carried enough kinetic energy to strike Liu Can's forehead from the side. Blood splattered, but it did not penetrate the skull. Beneath the broken flesh, the hard luster of metal was revealed.

Cybernetics Modification • Skull Enhancement: This guy has enhanced his body to an exaggerated degree with cybernetics, but it is precisely because of the embedding of these metals that he cannot reach the surface of the water quickly due to his own weight.

With a sinister grin, Liu Can seized the opportunity when Wang Yu was holding the gun with one hand and his left leg with the other, and bent down, pointing his chest at Wang Yu.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

The high-pressure gas cylinder made a loud noise as a large number of steel needles pierced through the clothes and shot out, aiming at Wang Yu below. Underneath the torn clothes was a chest covered with metal, which was also modified inside and out by prosthetics. A pneumatic needle launcher prosthetic was implanted in the chest and abdomen.

"Puff puff puff puff puff!"

The steel needle pierced the flesh and blood, easily breaking through the flesh and reaching the bone, and stabbed deep inside. The scarlet color spread widely in the water. Wang Yu's hand, which was holding the other's ankle, was almost riddled with holes. Half of his finger joints were broken and fractured. He tried to exert more force but was powerless.

The only saving grace was that Wang Yu adjusted his body to be parallel to the direction from which the needles were coming, thus blocking most of the needle shots at the cost of sacrificing an arm.

"Bang."

Liu Can kicked Wang Yu's mangled arm hard, shoving the annoying guy away, and swam towards the surface of the water. His lungs were already in so much pain from lack of oxygen that they felt like they were about to explode.

"Snapped!"

However, another hand gripped his leg, hard, strong, and difficult to break free from.

"Gagaga gagaga!"

The terrifying force traveled along the hand to Liu Can's leg bones, which could not withstand the pressure and let out a mournful cry.

"who!?"

Liu Can, whose vision was beginning to darken, stared in disbelief at the woman sitting in the wheelchair his target had been pushing earlier. How could she not be dead? And this strength didn't even hinder her movements in the water!

Yes, who would have thought that a normal person would push a robot in a wheelchair? From the moment the hovercar crashed the target into the water, Liu Can believed that the woman was already dead beyond any doubt. From beginning to end, his attention was only on Wang Yu.

This is why Wang Yu didn't dodge even after triggering the escapee. Behind Liu Can, the MK1 body, completely unaffected by the underwater environment, had already clung to the hovercar's body and moved towards Liu Can under Ling Qi's control.

Liu Can was completely unaware of what was happening behind him. The surging river drowned out all the strange noises, and the sound of Ling Qi crawling on her hands was swallowed up.

Lingqi's inability to use her legs properly will make her movements slower no matter what, so Wang Yu must create an opportunity for her. Once Lingqi grabs the target, everything will be over.

"Snapped!"

With her other hand, Lingqi grabbed Liu Can's leg and used her own weight to drag him back to the bottom of the river, completely ignoring any of his struggles. The pure mechanical power completely suppressed all the prosthetic modifications made to the fragile human body.

Liu Can, already weakened by lack of oxygen, could hardly resist Ling Qi's dragging. Her grip moved upwards, from her ankles, thighs, arms, shoulders, and neck, until Ling Qi's hands were choking the man's neck.

"Snap, crunch!"

The powerful output of the MK1 shell was applied entirely to Liu Can's neck. His spine, which had undergone enhancement surgery, was first pulled directly out of his more fragile body, and then instantly broken by Ling Qi.

"Bang!"

Lingqi flung Liu Can's body to the bottom of the riverbed, and with a final stomp, crushed Liu Can's metal skull and brain inside. The river was now stained with all sorts of filthy bodily fluids, and fragments of tissue from unknown organs drifted everywhere.

Ling Qi turned her face to look at Wang Yu not far away. Due to the vehicle collision, a large piece of her bionic skin had fallen off, revealing a mechanical structure underneath that looked incredibly grotesque and terrifying against the backdrop of her remaining bionic skin.

"Awesome!"

Wang Yu laughed heartily and gave the other person a thumbs up with his still-intact finger.
