I write obituaries for the gods

Chapter 78 Beasts

The helicopter spun as it descended through the rain, the immense centrifugal force forcing Lin Chen to hold on tightly to avoid being thrown off.

Even so, Oswald remained completely calm in the cockpit.

He grabbed the rotor and made slight adjustments, which slowed the helicopter's rotation, but it was still falling.

Oswald extended his hand toward Lin Chen and whispered:

"Grab my hand, and I'll take you down."

"No..." The veins on Lin Chen's arm bulged, "Get closer to the building...I have to go up!"

"Land first, wait for support."

"We can't wait that long!" Lin Chen shouted. "Just get closer to the building."

"receive."

Oswald jerked the control stick, and the helicopter spun rapidly again, hurtling towards the office building!

Just as he was about to crash headfirst into it, Lin Chen released his hands and leaped towards the building's surface—

"Boom!"

A flash of thunder, and Lin Chen clung to the edge of the balcony.

At the same time, the helicopter crashed into the building, and a violent explosion occurred.

"boom!!!"

Lin Chen turned to look at the darkness through the rain: a figure like a bat cloak glided silently downwards.

“We’ve reached the evacuation point! Section Chief, how are you?” Louis’s voice came through the phone.

“They’ve left Waldav and are on their way,” Jiang Zhengge’s voice came through. “The Black Web’s mercenaries are hunting us. Call for backup immediately.”

"Received. The support from Section Two is on its way."

"Zhanyi, what's the situation on your end?" Louis asked.

no answer.

Lin Chen gritted his teeth, the swelling of his muscles making him feel as if his skin was about to be torn apart.

With the projection of Optimus Prime in place, without a suppressor, he could collapse at any moment into a monster just like Optimus Prime in its out-of-control state.

But he can't stop the projection now...

"I'm going to save Zhanyi!" Lin Chen said through gritted teeth, then threw the headset directly into the darkness below.

Then, he stepped onto the edge of the balcony and jumped suddenly onto the balcony of the next floor.

Layer after layer, he climbed faster and faster, like King Kong scaling the Empire State Building...

Before he knew it, Lin Chen realized that he was actually running vertically on the exterior wall of the office building!

The oncoming rain blurred his vision, and the white light of thunder occasionally pierced through the raindrops on his cornea, turning his field of vision a ghastly white.

In the pale light, through the "Mirage City," he saw Li Zhanyi desperately trying to evade Captain England's pursuit in the stairwell, saw the wounds on her body, and saw her blood dripping onto the floor.

Anger burned through Lin Chen's veins like flames, his heart roared like an engine, as if to resound the greatest fury throughout every corner of this torrential rain!

"..."

On the rooftop, Li Zhanyi hid behind the solar panels, breathing softly.

The steel bars bursting through the concrete swept across every corner of the rooftop like the tentacles of Captain England, gradually compressing the space.

In the distance, the heavy footsteps of a demigod paced back and forth in the rain.

He was like a mad beast, tearing apart a solar panel with his bare hands every now and then.

"I've finally made it to the top!" Captain England roared. "So close! Just a little bit more! Just a little bit more and I could have become a star even more awesome than Johnston!"

"Why the hell are you meddling in other people's business! Why! Why!"

A metallic clang rang out, and the English captain abruptly swung his hand, tearing a solar panel to shreds—

"Sizzle!"

As he manipulated the magnetism, a grenade rolled to his feet—

"boom!!!"

Captain England was thrown to the side by the blast, and when he looked up again, the surroundings were filled with smoke.

"Enough! I'm a demigod! I'm a fucking demigod!" Captain England roared. "I'll kill you! You're the ones who should be condemning me!"

The English captain suddenly waved his hand, and a string of steel bars swept away the smoke behind him—

"boom!"

Li Zhanyi, hidden in the smoke, paused slightly, then knelt down on the ground.

She looked down: a steel bar had pierced through her trench coat and vest, embedding itself in her lower back; the excruciating pain instantly robbed her of her strength.

"Cough...cough cough..."

Li Zhanyi's hand fell limply to the ground, the RSH-12 that Jiang Zhengge had given her before the operation.

At the edge of the magazine, a faint blue halo appeared and disappeared in the rain – a whale-sounding shell was loaded into the magazine!

Seeing Li Zhanyi's disheveled appearance, the English captain revealed a terrifying smile:

"I only want your heart... this pretty little face... I don't care about that..."

Li Zhanyi felt the gun in her hand suddenly move—the large-caliber revolver was magnetically controlled and pressed against her chin.

She gripped the revolver tightly, trying to move the muzzle away, but no matter what she did, she couldn't.

"You fired a whale-sounding grenade at me, and now I'm returning this to you..." Captain England said softly, "I just don't know... whether your cute little head can take it? Hehehehehehehe!"

Just as Captain England was about to pull the trigger and fire...

Amidst the downpour, a series of footsteps approached rapidly.

The demigod suddenly turned around and saw a figure leap up from the edge of the rooftop, hovering for a moment in the night.

Seeing the bulging veins on the figure's arm, Captain England's eyes suddenly glazed over.

He recalled that football game, and that unstoppable figure—Johnston's arms had bulging veins back then.

"Skybreaker..." Captain England roared.

The next second, a 23mm slug pierced his eye socket in the moment of his distraction—

"Uh ah ah ah ah ah!"

The English captain covered his face and stumbled backward, falling to the ground.

Lin Chen landed on the rooftop, raised the projected revolver shotgun again, and aimed it at the British captain's lower body—

"Oh!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Captain England was hit and bounced on the ground several times. He suddenly swung his hand, and the revolver shotgun in Lin Chen's hand was pulled away by the magnetic force.

"Johnston!!!"

Captain England roared, clasped his hands together, and a swarm of steel bars rushed towards Lin Chen.

Lin Chen charged forward, dodging and weaving through the surging tide of steel bars, appearing before the British captain like a blur—

"boom!"

A punch landed squarely on the English captain's face.

"Ughhhhh!!"

Teeth shattered like hailstones and flew into the sky. The demigod spun around and flew to the other end of the rooftop, where he crashed to the ground.

"It's sticking to my clothes!"

Lin Chen rushed to Zhan Yi's side and quickly tore through all the steel bars around her. Then he took out a syringe and injected the combat sustain agent into Li Zhan Yi's neck.

After confirming that the bleeding had stopped, he pulled out the steel bar that had pierced Li Zhanyi's lower back, causing the girl to shudder in pain.

"Why aren't you leaving..." Li Zhanyi struggled to stand up. "I..."

The next second, Lin Chen hugged Li Zhanyi tightly, startling the girl.

"what...!"

"Hide," Lin Chen whispered in Li Zhanyi's ear. "I'll handle him."

After saying that, he pulled open the rooftop door and pushed Li Zhanyi inside, then turned to look at the demigod not far away.

Captain England slowly rose amidst the torrential rain. Steel bars, like centipedes, crawled across his body, piercing his flesh and wrapping around his bones, strengthening his physique.

"You fucking...want to deal with...me?" The English captain's eyes gleamed with a sinister blue light. "You fucking...you?"

"Johnston... I, Ding Qilang... am stronger than you...!"

......

Chapter 79 Chekhov's Whale Cry (First Update)

Johnston?

Lin Chen smiled faintly amidst the torrential rain.

It seems that Captain England mistook him for Optimus Prime.

Lin Chen rubbed his aching arm. He felt his muscles had become like stone, and there was a possibility that they would collapse at any moment.

We must resolve this issue as soon as possible.

Lin Chen didn't waste words with Captain England. He picked up his axe, spun around twice, and charged towards the demigod.

Seeing Lin Chen charging towards him, the British captain let out a low growl and slammed his hands on the ground—

"boom!"

One after another, steel bars pierced through the ground, heading towards Lin Chen from all directions.

Lin Chen swung his hand axe repeatedly, cutting through the steel bars one by one. Then, as he approached Captain England, he leaped down and chopped at the top of his head.

"Buzz!"

The hand axe hovered above Captain England's skull, blocked by magnetism!

Lin Chen had been waiting for this moment when he would use magnetic force.

He effortlessly released the hand axe and punched the unsuspecting English captain in the face—

"clang!"

Captain England's face cracked open, revealing his rusty cheekbones: metal seemed to have gnawed away at his bones and replaced them.

"clang!"

The English captain headbutted Lin Chen, sending him staggering back dozens of steps.

Lin Chen stood up, shook his aching wrist, and looked at the British captain who was convulsing.

He identified Captain England's weakness: the guy was basically unable to do anything else while using his powers.

Lin Chen had already noticed this from the time in the bunker: Captain England could sometimes block bullets, and sometimes he couldn't, so he had to carry a shield for protection.

That punch just now further convinced Lin Chen that Captain England was a completely one-dimensional being.

Even now, in this... second stage? When manipulating the steel reinforcement group, he can only give all the steel reinforcements a general direction, and he can't manipulate each one in detail.

It seems that the gamma range really has reached its limit.

"Why doesn't anyone love me!" Captain England shouted. "Ugh! Bullshit!!!"

"I've been wanting to complain for a while now. Why don't you change your name to Captain West Coast? Does that make sense?" Lin Chen sighed. "It's about time to wrap this up."

He had already figured out a way to take down Captain England.

"Ahhhh!"

Captain England roared as the steel bars twisted in his hands, gradually forming the shape of a longsword.

No, that's not steel bars anymore, that's his bones.
