I write obituaries for the gods

Grasping his iron-clad longsword, Captain England roared as he charged toward Lin Chen.

Lin Chen flicked his wrist, and a revolver shotgun was projected, aimed at Captain England—

"Oh!"

The moment the single-headed armor-piercing projectile was launched, a magnetic force held it in place, suspending it in mid-air.

Captain England just took one of these things and knows how painful it is, so he will definitely use his ability to stop it.

Lin Chen was waiting for him to do just that—

"call--"

As he fired the shot, Lin Chen suddenly threw out the hand axe that had just been projected.

The armor-piercing single-shot had barely stopped in mid-air when the hand axe swept past it, spinning through the downpour towards Captain England's head—

"Crack!"

"Ahhh! Ahhhh!"

The English captain's only remaining eye was also cut out, and he fell to his knees, screaming in agony.

Lin Chen raised his revolver shotgun and fired a series of shots at his chest—

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Six buckshots blasted into the English captain's chest in quick succession, riddling him with holes.

When the sixth bullet hit, black liquid gushed out: Captain England's heart had shattered.

Lin Chen discarded the revolver shotgun, projected a hand axe again, and charged towards Captain England.

Just then, the entire building shook, and the ground began to crack.

Lin Chen staggered, steadied himself, and looked at the demigod not far away.

Two dark blue tears slid down his cheeks, and the rusty bones on his body grew wildly like thorns, soon bursting through his body.

"Uh...I...uh...ah..."

Captain England's physique soon ceased to resemble that of a human; steel formed a new outline, with only a chest cavity and head vaguely discernible.

At the same time, the building shook more and more violently, and Lin Chen finally understood what was happening:

After losing his sight, Captain England's attention became completely focused, even more so than before.

Therefore, he was able to concentrate all his abilities on this building!

He wanted to die together with Lin Chen!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The building's steel structure began to tear through the concrete, drilling through floors and converging towards the roof.

The ground beneath Lin Chen's feet was cracked and broken, and he had to keep dodging to barely keep himself from falling.

He must be dealt with immediately...

Lin Chen projected a revolver shotgun, but just as he was about to aim, the shotgun exploded into metal shavings.

He tried several times until his arms were covered in wounds before finally giving up.

He tried to approach Captain England, but every time he got close, several steel bars would burst out of the ground and block his way.

And as soon as he tears those steel bars, new steel bars will appear.

Should we retreat?

Lin Chen took a deep breath and clenched his fists.

Zhanyi should have already left; if she retreats, it will leave a mess for the foundation...

But if this building were to collapse like this... how many people would die?

The residents in the building may have already started evacuating when the previous explosion occurred. What if the building collapsed and hit the hotel next door?

What if the people on the street didn't have time to evacuate?

An unexpected disaster... just like what happened at the Iron Cape...

We must not retreat.

Lin Chen exhaled a breath of scalding hot air, feeling his muscles being torn apart.

After fighting for so long, the excruciating pain from the projected sky had actually subsided considerably... or perhaps it had gone numb from the pain.

Let's go then!

Lin Chen crouched down, jumped, and soared over the steel obstacles into the sky.

Almost simultaneously, a string of steel bars came hurtling in—

"Om——"

Lin Chen projected Captain England's shield and held it in front of him, thus avoiding being pierced by the steel bars.

Even so, he was still trapped in mid-air by those steel bars.

Looking down from mid-air, Captain England's chest cavity was open, and between his interlocking ribs, a dark blue heart was shimmering.

"Come with me to hell!"

Captain England roared, and iron spikes appeared all over his body as he aimed at Lin Chen in mid-air using his magnetic field perception.

Just then, the rooftop door was kicked open:

"Lin Chen!"

Upon hearing the sound, Captain England sensed Li Zhanyi and the sniper rifle in her hand!

The sniper rifle fired a whale-sound round that pierced through him.

Instinctively, Captain England manipulated the magnetic force, tearing the gun from Li Zhanyi's hand!

Almost simultaneously, he heard a soft chuckle:

"Goodbye."

Captain England looked up and sensed that Lin Chen, whom he had bound in mid-air, was holding an RSH-12 revolver!

It was Li Zhanyi who threw it to him!

The demigod failed to notice Li Zhanyi throwing the gun at Lin Chen, assuming the girl had returned to die.

However, being single-threaded, he was no longer able to switch to manipulating the metal in Lin Chen's hand—

"Ugh——"

A clear yet ethereal whale cry echoed through the downpour, a beam of deep blue tearing through the rain curtain.

Last time, Lin Chen aimed the same gun at Captain England, but failed to pull the trigger in time.

And this time...

"Pfft!"

With a burst of ethereal blue light, the bullet struck the British captain's exposed heart!

"Crack... Ah..."

The demigod suddenly tilted his head back, his flesh and blood boiling, and he spat out a dark blue substance.

The rapidly growing steel suddenly stopped, and then, amidst cracking sounds, it continued to crumble and explode, turning into a pile of iron scraps.

Lin sank to the ground, raised his head, and looked at the small iron mound not far away.

Amidst the torrential rain, Captain England's upper body slumped atop the Iron Hill, a dark blue liquid flowing from his chest cavity, gradually transforming into bubbles suspended in the air.

he died.

.......

Chapter 80 The Mystery (Second Update)

Captain England is dead.

The azure substance within his body floated in the air, like a glowing, fluorescent sea shimmering in the rain.

"Boom!"

Thunder rumbled, and Lin Chen knelt on the ground, his burning muscles gradually cooling as the torrential rain poured down.

In this battle, the Azure Energy from Qingtian was almost depleted.

The resources required to project a demigod are still far too extravagant.

Fortunately, a new free Azure Energy supply has arrived.

However, there are more important things to do now.

"Stained clothes".

Lin Chen struggled to his feet and walked toward the girl beside him.

Li Zhanyi leaned against the awning by the rooftop door, breathing softly.

Several new wounds appeared on her body, likely caused by the flying metal fragments when Captain England tore apart the weapon.

Lin Chen squatted down beside Li Zhanyi, took out the syringe again, and injected her with a combat sustain agent to continue stopping the bleeding.

“Come on, I’ll take you to see a doctor.” He spoke very quickly.

"No...no need, let's rest for a while. I'm not badly injured, and the disguise will still work."

A forced smile appeared on Li Zhanyi's pale face.

"Quickly give yourself a shot," she said. "You're badly injured too..."

Lin Chen glanced at his arm and then noticed that it was covered with dense bloodstains.

He added another vial of combat endurance potion to the syringe and forcefully injected it into his arm.

"call..."

Lin Chen sat down next to Li Zhanyi and let out a deep breath.

“It’s finally over,” he said softly. “This guy actually ambushed you…it was really unexpected.”

“They’ve taken a grudge against me, haven’t they?” Li Zhanyi breathed softly. “Someone told him about the sniper’s identity.”

"Could it be someone from inside?" Lin Chen turned his head.

“Possibly, but don’t underestimate the capabilities of the Foundation’s intelligence department. Perhaps it was just a slip of the tongue,” Li Zhanyi said.

The torrential rain divided the deep blue sky hanging in the air into countless patches of light, adding a touch of dreaminess to the girl's delicate and beautiful profile.

Li Zhanyi turned his head to the side and stared at Lin Chen without moving.

"What's wrong?" Lin Chen blinked.

"I really didn't foresee that you would appear like this to save me..." Li Zhanyi muttered softly, "I foresaw Captain England's actions. I put a blank round in my revolver, waited for him to make me shoot myself, then pretended to be dead, and then ambushed him..."

"If you put a blank 12.7x55mm bullet against your chin, you'd be knocked out, right?" Lin Chen laughed.

"We have to take a gamble, what if I don't faint?" Li Zhanyi puffed out her cheeks slightly. "Your amazing entrance has ruined all my plans."

"Hmm? Then shouldn't I have saved you?" Lin Chen tilted his head to look at the girl.

"No, I don't blame you."

Li Zhanyi hugged his legs with both hands, rested his chin on his knees, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

“I just can’t believe what you were going to do,” she said softly. “I was terrified when you crashed. I was so worried that something might really happen to you, but I had no idea what would happen…”

"That's why I'm angry. I'm determined to kill that fake foreigner, even if it costs me my life..."

At this point, Li Zhanyi looked at Lin Chen, and there was a hint of... grievance in her dark eyes?

"I clearly told you to retreat first. Wouldn't it have been better to bring more people to help me later? You should worry about yourself too..."

"I'm afraid it will be too late," Lin Chen said softly.

That's too late.

Some people, once missed, are gone forever; one parting can mean the difference between life and death.

Lin Chen didn't want to experience the separation that happened at the Iron Horn Bridge again.
