I write obituaries for the gods

"Who ambushed them?" Lucy frowned.

"Long time no see, Section Chief!"

Hearing the shouts, Jiang Zhengge looked into the depths of the room and saw a figure in a hazmat suit emerge from the depths of the poisonous gas, holding a grenade launcher in his hand.

He waved at the camera, and the ventilation system was activated, quickly drawing the toxic gas out of the room.

As the concentration of the toxic gas decreased, Jiang Zhengge finally saw the face of the newcomer through the helmet of his hazmat suit...

No, I can't see the face clearly.

Because he was wearing a bronze mask.

“I’ve solved a small problem for you,” the bronze mask shrugged. “Will this earn me a raise?”

......

Chapter Twenty-Three: Raid on the Bureau of Investigation Building (6000 words)

Looking at the face behind the bronze mask... no, that mask, Jiang Zhengge lowered the muzzle of his gun.

“You’ve kept it well hidden, kid. I thought Louis had already dug you out and dealt with you,” he said. “Looks like you’ve held firm to your principles.”

“He had already poached me, and through coercion and bribery, he made me do a lot of bad things.”

The doors to the W Weapon Center opened, and the bronze-masked figure waved, gesturing for Jiang Zhengge and his group to enter.

"Something bad? What bad thing?" Jiang Zhengge asked as he walked.

“What else could it be? He put me in charge of playing hide-and-seek with the Rain Town guerrillas,” Bronze Mask shrugged. “Anyway, I just fooled him. My compatriots aren’t that easy to find anyway. I gave him a little clue each time to tease him.”

Now, everyone had arrived at the control panel.

"Thanks to your riot, I was able to get in here so easily. You know, there were soldiers everywhere here before, but when the riot broke out, they all went to support the prison, leaving only a few demigods behind."

"From what you're saying, demigods are easier to deal with?" Lucy frowned.

"Wow, senior, you really have no idea how brainless these demigods are!"

The urge to criticize the bronze mask immediately arose:

"These three guys are complete giant babies. I feel like they just slapped some skin onto an artificial god body. I don't even know if their intelligence is over 80! They love drinking milk, and it has to be the kind of baby formula. The girls in the logistics department have been driven crazy by them these days!"

"Don't think I'm amazing for taking them down. I just brought a bucket of milk and threw a blast of Mephisto gas at them while they were drinking it."

"Is this the kind of thing the Foundation is going to use to fool Louis?" Jiang Zhengge frowned as he looked at the demigod on the ground.

“These roads are indeed a bit off the mark, but there are still some powerful demigods on them,” the bronze mask muttered. “For example, there’s Storm. She’s a Beta-level being, very powerful. She used to be Mr. P’s bodyguard. Now that most of the Foundation’s top executives have left, she’s been sent to Louis’s side. I heard she’s called Little Triton, and she’s also quite powerful.”

“Little Triton…” Lucy pursed her lips, “No wonder he can’t get on stage, turns out he’s got the same ideas as the demigods above him, making it hard to cultivate a star image…”

“So this storm also has a ‘haha, I’ve finally risen to power’ attitude,” Bronze Mask shook his head. “It’s brutal, not like a good person, you know? She’s always sucking up to Louis, thinking that as the director’s wife, she’s about to step into the power center of Rain City.”

"Does that mean Louis has now entered the center of power?" Jiang Zhengge raised an eyebrow.

"How could that be... To be honest, I think our Chief Louis is nothing but a dog."

The bronze mask shrugged helplessly.

"I feel that the Foundation doesn't have much strategic planning for him. He's just a tool to replace the Bureau of Investigation. And I feel that the Foundation's current focus is not on Yudu at all... But let's talk about these things later. Xiao Hei has prepared the virus for you."

As he spoke, the bronze mask handed a USB drive to Jiang Zhengge.

Jiang Zhengge took the USB drive, inserted it into the console, and quickly typed in lines of commands.

As the virus breached the firewall, he took control of the W weapon.

“It went smoothly,” Jiang Zhengge breathed a sigh of relief. “Alright, we can give them the signal now.”

Jiang Zhengge quickly adjusted the launch coordinates of the W weapon to the sky, and then pressed the charge button—

"Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz—"

Just then, Lucy walked over quickly:

"Old Jiang, you'd better take a look at this."

Jiang Zhengge followed Lucy to the surveillance wall on one side of the room and looked at the image Lucy was pointing to.

In the hall, a humanoid beast made of rock was running wildly, smashing all the prisoners who had escaped from the underground floors one by one and stuffing them into its own body.

At this moment, the cracks in the rock around his body were filled with severed limbs, making him look quite horrifying.

“Lord Rock,” the bronze masked figure also approached, “he’s Louis’s second most formidable henchman. This thing’s skin can withstand at least three Whale Roar Bullets! He seems to be a Beta-level!”

“It can indeed withstand attacks,” Jiang Zhengge pointed to the screen. “Look, he turned everything he devoured into his own outer skeleton. The Whale Cry Bullet is only effective against demigods and abnormal entities; it doesn’t have that much penetrating power.”

"Lin Chen and the others will have to fight with this kind of thing as soon as they walk in..." Lucy murmured.

“That kid’s fine,” Marcus said. “This kind of thing is no problem for him.”

At this moment, as the charging was completed, a tremor was felt—

"Om..."

“The W weapon has been fired into the sky,” Jiang Zhengge said. “Let’s go to the lobby on the first floor and meet up with Lin Chen.”

"Let's go! Let's go see my godfather!" The bronze mask was very excited.

"...So you accepted this setting before?" Lucy retorted.

"My godfather is so powerful, he can easily protect me, what's there to be ashamed of..."

......

"Boom!"

Beside the motorcycle, Lin Chen looked up at the beam of light shooting into the sky from the top of the Investigation Bureau.

Without a doubt, that was a signal given by Section Chief Jiang.

"It's time to go."

Lin Chen got on his motorcycle and checked his equipment.

Li Zhanyi skillfully climbed onto the back seat and put on his helmet.

She looked at the front seat and saw Lin Chen take out a silver facial bone from his coat—the "ghost mask" he had taken from the Rain City Star Exhibition Hall.

"Wow, you're not planning to go in and fight wearing this, are you?" Li Zhanyi was taken aback.

“I always had a feeling this mask would work,” Lin Chen said. “It gives me a sense of familiarity…”

This familiarity was something Lin Chen could hardly describe in words.

Deep down, he always felt that as long as he wore this mask, he could do things that he couldn't do before.

Lin Chen slowly placed the mask on his face, and the silver metal connected to his face like a second skin, as if it were part of his face all along.

Lin Chen turned his head and looked at Li Zhanyi:

"How is it?"

"It's like the ghost from 'The Telephone of Responsibility,'" Li Zhanyi said, slightly taken aback. "But his was more of a military horror film, yours..."

"What kind of wind is this?"

"Science fiction horror style".

"Is it that scary..." Lin Chen scratched his head.

"Do you sense anything different?" Li Zhanyi tilted his head curiously.

“Not yet,” Lin Chen shook his head, “but I always feel…very comfortable.”

It was as if he had regained a state that he used to be able to achieve but had not been able to achieve for a long time. Lin Chen felt that his limbs and bones were incredibly light.

"Alright, let's go." Lin Chen put on his motorcycle helmet.

"Be careful, kids," Hua Luori's voice came through the headset, "Now for the main event."

"Of course."

Lin Chen suddenly twisted the steering wheel, and the motorcycle roared to life—

"Buzz!"

Led by him, more than a dozen motorcycles rushed out of the streets and alleys and headed towards the defense line around the Investigation Bureau building!

The soldiers inside the defensive line were staring blankly at the sky. By the time they heard the motorcycle engine, it was already too late.

"boom!"

An RPG blasted into the outpost, and the flames instantly sent them flying into the air.

Lin Chen drove his motorcycle through the flames, raised his submachine gun with one hand, and unleashed a barrage of fire at the area below:

"Da da da da da!"

After landing on the motorcycle, Lin Chen had already passed the checkpoint and was steadily approaching the Investigation Bureau building.

After a series of charges through the streets, the Bureau of Investigation building was not far away.

"Attention! A demigod unit is approaching you!" Hua Luori's voice rang out.

Lin Chen looked up and saw a figure spreading its wings in the rainy night, followed by bullet-like feathers—

"Clang clang clang!"

The feathers stuck to the ground, piercing the motorcycle's tail like sharp knives, blasting up patches of broken asphalt.

Lin Chen raised his gun to retaliate in the sky, but the feathered figure did a somersault and dodged Lin Chen's bullet.

"This is really troublesome," Lin Chen said in a low voice.

At this moment, another checkpoint appeared ahead, so he had no choice but to ignore the demigod in the sky and focus his attention on what was in front of him:

"Da da da da!"

After his bullets cleared the checkpoint, the demigod swooped down once more—

"Om-"

"Ahhh!"

A soldier from the armed defense line was lifted into the air along with his motorcycle and torn to pieces in a flash of cold light.

Immediately afterwards, another string of feathers rained down, crashing onto the street—

"Clang clang clang clang!"

Lin Chen maneuvered his motorcycle to dodge, and this time, he spun around, bent down, and casually plucked a feather from the road.

“Iron,” Lin Chen said, “Liti Pro Max version.”

"I don't think Litty is that good!" Li Zhanyi shouted. "Take him down! Aren't you the captain of the British team?"

"Zhanyi, I am Lin Chen, not Captain England..."

"Oh no, I misspoke! Don't you know Captain England's move?" Li Zhanyi laughed awkwardly. "Damn it! Can you even control him? Just make him pause for a moment!"

“No problem.” Lin Chen immediately understood what Li Zhanyi meant.

The motorcycle sped along the street, and the two waited quietly for the demigod to dive down again.

Finally, the sound of flying through the air came—

"Brother Lin, give me an angle!" Li Zhanyi shouted.

"it is good."

Lin Chen suddenly veered off course and charged towards the sandbag pile by the roadside—

"Buzz!"

The motorcycle soared high into the air, flying into the sky.

In mid-air, Lin Chen used two fingers to frame the demigod who was swooping down—

"Buzz!"

The demigod was manipulated by the magnetic force and remained frozen in mid-air for a fleeting moment.

Li Zhanyi had already foreseen this moment.

She raised her sniper rifle in advance and aimed at the demigod's head—

"Oh!"
