Exploding God

Jin Chenghui knelt on the ground in a daze. At that moment, he felt as if he had seen a god...

Lu Ze stretched out one arm, and beneath his palm and in front of his feet was the kneeling mecha, now silent.

He... he actually did it.

[With a human body...instantly kill the construct pilot!]

With a gulp, Jin Chenghui swallowed hard, feeling as if he had lived the past 15 years of his life on his own Teddy dog.

"Boss!" came a loud shout, like the mournful cry of a cuckoo, filled with utter admiration.

Shh~~~

Lu Ze raised a finger, stopping the latter from professing his loyalty. His gaze swept indifferently over the fighter mech on the ground, where bright red blood slowly seeped from the gaps in the scale-like armor plates...

Before this attack, he had made a conjecture.

Has the [Shadow Thief] organization made contact with the Starsea race—the Shadow Soldier Clan?

Now it seems that since the blood is still bright red, the door to the mysterious and wonderful world must not have been opened yet, which explains why the other party is so eager to capture Jin Chenghui.

"Boss... is anyone else here?"

"What, do you want to run into a few more?" Lu Ze asked with a half-smile.

Upon hearing this, Jin Chenghui was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly, his face turning deathly pale.

Are you kidding me! Isn't one enough?

"If the planner was a fool, then obviously we'll run into him again." Lu Ze stepped over Dominic's corpse, showing no interest whatsoever in the old-fashioned fighter mech.

"Idiot? How could that be!" Jin Chenghui was jolted awake. This guy, who had almost trapped Brother Hui like a dumpling, couldn't possibly be an idiot.

"So, those who seem smart are often actually the dumbest," Lu Ze said casually, a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Jin Chenghui suddenly shivered. Why did he feel a chill in his heart in the middle of summer? The word "pervert" probably, maybe... um... should refer to the guy in front of him.

"So we're safe this time?" Kim Sung-hui asked with hope in his eyes.

"Wait a little longer." Lu Ze walked slowly.

After another ten seconds or so, the genius hacker couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Um, how long will it take?"

Lu Ze stopped, looked up at the bright sky through the gaps between the dilapidated buildings, and squinted his eyes.

"Let the bullets fly for a while."

---boom!

In the distance, a ball of fire suddenly rose up, and a violent explosion instantly drowned out everything around it.

"We're safe now."

Lu Ze withdrew his gaze and turned around, looking at Jin Chenghui with the same caring eyes one would give a tender look at emerald green chives.

"Now let's talk about what's between us."

Jin Chenghui froze, a shiver running through his body.

……

……

When a car wash on Changyang Street exploded, Shadow 257, who was leading a group of leather-clad men to create chaos and launch a surprise attack, suddenly trembled, and the muscles in his cheeks behind his sunglasses twitched uncontrollably.

In the chaotic streets, men in leather jackets exuding menacing aura surrounded him, but his heart felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

Because of the direction of the explosion—

It was moved 2 kilometers behind the target.

These 2 kilometers represent a complete shift in the initiative at this moment!

The stronghold in Changyang Subdistrict has been exposed!

He couldn't understand why, when everything was going according to plan, it suddenly felt like a giant hand had overturned the entire chessboard.

How exactly did that combat alliance squad discover their ambush?

Why did Shangnan City, a free city with seemingly weak security, cause them to suffer repeated setbacks?

"Captain—" the man in the leather jacket behind him called out after he stopped.

"Activate the exoskeleton battery, target set, advance!" Shadow 257 shouted sternly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shadow 257 suddenly looked up and dodged to the side.

A loud thud.

A spun alloy axe flew out of the air, grazing his body and cutting into the soil along with its handle.

"Hey hey hey, let Grandpa Niu Lie see who's talking so arrogantly. Go ahead and tell me your mother."

Niu Lie's burly figure emerged from the smoke, his muscles bulging like an explosion, his face round and upturned, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth. He grinned nonchalantly at the group of thirty-odd people before him.

Even Niu Ye managed to win a game where he completely outsmarted the opponent. You have to admit, the sense of accomplishment was incredibly satisfying.

Especially seeing the expression of hatred on the other side, it felt like eating an ice pop on a sweltering summer day—simply amazing!

"How could the Combat Association send out such a reckless fool like you!" Shadow 257 raised his left hand, showing three fingers, and the forty-odd people behind him simultaneously lowered their guns and drew out black umbrella-nail mechanical crossbows from their waists.

Military-grade parachute crossbow, three arrows per crossbow, the light blue arrowheads after being quenched gleaming with a chilling luster.

Within an effective kill radius of 80 meters, it is enough to penetrate a 15mm steel plate, let alone a human body!

Two consecutive setbacks have completely ignited Shadow 257's murderous intent!

Today, Shadow 257 is going to turn this Shangnan City upside down!

Buzz~ Buzz~

At that moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the sky. Everyone present looked up and realized that dozens of remote-controlled drones had descended from the sky at some unknown time, accompanied by a waterfall of white shadows.

Whoosh—bang bang bang!

Dozens or even hundreds of semi-transparent white metal nets completely surrounded the group of Shadow 257.

"Of course, we won't just send out this silly cow; we'll also send out the clever Hezi." A little girl holding a lollipop skipped out from behind, looking completely innocent.

Beside He Zi stood Mu She, a cool young man with long hair and wearing a white trench coat. He glanced indifferently ahead and pulled out a short black stick from behind his back.

As the finger gently pressed the mechanism, a clicking sound rang out, revealing a jet-black longsword with intricate patterns.

"Just the three of you? Shoot!"

Shadow 257's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He swung his hand sharply, and in an instant, the leather-clad men pressed down on their crossbows, unleashing hundreds of arrows like a torrential rain.

"Giggle~" Hezi clapped her hands, her big, bright eyes wide as she sucked on a lollipop.

Crackling sound~~

Dense flashes of lightning rose up in front of Niu Lie, weaving into a terrifying net of lightning.

Despite being so close, not a single crossbow bolt could penetrate that final distance.

"You big silly ox, it's your turn now."

"And also, Mu Poker, beat them up with your black sword."

Hezi clenched her little fist and cheered cutely.

Niu Lie grinned maliciously, squatted down suddenly, his muscles creaking, and then leaped into the air.

The ground trembled violently as the 6-star peak warrior charged into the lightning net.

"Let me, your Uncle Niu Lie, teach you bastards a lesson."

Mushe quickly took two steps forward, his black sword flashing as he landed on the battlefield with a sharp somersault.

Two 6-star warriors!

Niu Lie's fists were ferocious, like a mad tiger. His bronze body was as hard as steel. With one punch, he smashed the man and the crossbow to pieces.

Mushe's black sword was even more lethal; purple plasma flashes occasionally streaked across the unknown metal blade, and beneath its blade, men and crossbows were shattered.

His sword was even fast enough to deflect several incoming bullets.

In an instant, the leather-clad men were being slaughtered in a one-sided manner.

Shadow 257's eyes glazed over for a moment, then he suddenly pressed his right ear.

"Commander, requesting backup—"

A rustling sound appeared in my ears.

All the expressions on Shadow 257's face froze.

After a brief half-second, he sneered, pulled out the invisible earpiece, and stomped it to pieces.

He roared and charged forward...

The commander just gave up on him like that.

Perhaps, from the very beginning, I was just cannon fodder.

It's laughable that they are unaware of their own shortcomings and even want to take the initiative.

That damned organization, and that commander who should have died long ago, I, Shadow 257, am no match for them. I admit defeat this time.

I'll be waiting for you down there!
