"This is perhaps the bait, an item used to fish out a very big fish. It’s precisely because I’m afraid that letting someone see just part of the thread will believe in the existence of an ’enslaver,’".
said Bai Wu:
"This is a member of the team who is currently testing himself, but he doesn’t associate with this team and is not the same. He’s an undercover agent in their team."
Bai Wu had already died many times in his own imagination, if Zero was the opponent. Zero cannot be the opponent, no
But Zero is, unbeknownst to them, a precursor, giving Bai Wu a feeling of unease.
With the help of his strong knowledge and understanding, Bai Wu could easily find their inner weaknesses, as they were all lost in confusion,
... Ji Si, Luo Ziyan, Hong Yan, Jiang Mi Yi, schools, and the Well of Heart—Bai Wu and Zero have encountered many different kinds of evil beings.
"It is indeed a nuisance, this thing. It seems like an auction will take place, as it was used to observe some kind of performance capability. Mechanism City is bound to become a major hassle, it’s probably just a ploy, and the tower might just sell it off,"
said Bai Wu:
"Jiaxie and Xu Ziyan are both very astute; they realized the issue very quickly."
"If you were the lord of the city, would you choose this time to publicly announce the latest results of the ’enslaver’? Once the time comes for the anti-poison task force to appear after a major disease breakout, it’s inevitable that the city will be in chaos, and the anger tide will fall,"
"If it’s a new development of the ’enslaver’ that will be announced, then there will be an auction event. One event will let the tower show off the reach of their divine sticks, and another event that Zero is currently doing, impending the anger tide, will be the arbitrary cruelty of Ulaga’s disease. Let me tell you about the situation we’re currently facing,"
Bai Wu shook his head:
"Are you planning to go early to the auction?" Xu Ziyan said, not understanding.
"According to the data, the auction could dictate the overall situation within the city, as it will feature the latest Heart Core Mechanoid,"
said Jiaxie, nodding at Xu Ziyan:
"You should already know about the auction since you’ve been here these days, right?"
said Bai Wu:
"I am indeed better suited to old man Jia’s preference than you, Jiang, at least in terms of language habits."
"That’s just your habit, he always talks like that,"
Jiaxie retorted with a joke, while Xu Ziyan still did not understand:
"If it’s contrary to the city lord’s intentions, just do it anyway. There’s no contract, no failure involved. As for the alleged duties, at this point, we’re currently trying to find a cure for this city’s disease together with the city lord, but really, I’m looking for my own way of curing the disease,"
"What are you thinking?"
"Old Plank might find it odd that you don’t have an added shift. The last time Old Plank got better, it was you who chose the treatment for him, so he probably feels grateful. But suddenly Old Plank got sick, so Old Plank asked you to take an extra shift,"
"Have we really failed our mission, or are we just apparently failing the mission?"
Xu Ziyan said:
Bai Wu’s potential far exceeds his reputation, which is quite high for this seventeen-year-old young man.
To Bai Wu, Little Bai seemed to have a kind of potential that was even stronger than his own bluster, as observed by Xu Ziyan and Little Bai.
"Remembering half of my military inspection debt on Little Bai’s head, huh?"
Bai Wu laughed:
Xu Ziyan was silent.
"I’ve already become used to this. That’s just how I am... It’s been seventeen hundred years,"
"You don’t need to always be in such a humble pose,"
Xu Ziyan said:
Even though there’s no end to Zheng Yue’s potential, it can’t compare to the significant difference between Little Bai and Zheng Yue, not at all.
But he indeed possesses great potential; it’s just that he’s been hidden in the tower for so many years because this seventeen-hundred-year-old has lacked the vitality of youth.
Even if he wanted to, Bai Wu had no way to hide what he had done.
Little Bai had become an abomination, an existence completely devoid of a past, simply because of these two points of reliance. He had never imagined that someone as kindhearted as him would end up shouldering the tremendous pain and accumulating layers of negative emotions to such an extent. Nei Pan Jin Wu.
Little Bai was indeed very excited to be involved.
"Ah... ah, you’ve really annoyed me! I’m also very excited to help you, because this is what I should do, and we’re teammates, right?"
"Thank you, this one time I owe you a favor."
Bai Wu turned towards the banquet.
Because of this, the Shen Ta would definitely face a long death, unable to recall their spirits a second time.
The exoskeleton of the Heart Core Mechanoid lay in tatters, totally disintegrated into slag.
"You really don’t have a habit of whipping a dead body, but you can stop now. This ghostly spirit-mech seemed very strong at first, even overly cautious. Just make sure you understand that this is indeed the end of your entanglement with him, and that he’s truly dead."
Unexpectedly, Bai Wu would still be on Shen Ta’s mind today.
Having underestimated these two people, Zheng increasingly felt that he had been too complacent. It was hard for Bai Wu to admit such things, but Jiaxie nodded in understanding.
The Mech tribe’s respect and honor must be maintained.
"We humans can change our bodies but not Heart Cores. It’s forbidden, an abomination. Such matters are taboo within Mechanism City. Even if you’re thinking about collaborating with Jiaxie once the number zero works out. It’s a certain ethical prohibition against your kind, the Mech tribe."
"It’s a pity... his body’s combat equipment and Heart Core."
Jiaxie responded.
Aiming a powerful firearm directly at the corpse had a massive explosive effect.
Jiaxie and Bai Wu began to close the gaps.
If his eyes showed no sign of a long death, then he would not stop.
The battle had no end.
"Why is my combat compatibility with him so high?"
Despite these annoying hoplites joining forces with Bai Wu, things went surprisingly smoothly...
This little fellow, capable of carrying his own weight, seems to be no stranger to strong opponents, including Erleipu, Divine Lake, and even Shadow Banquet, who had just survived Shen Ta’s rigor.
In nearly every deadly situation, together with Bai Wu, Yan had almost perfect synergy—three times over.
The entire battle happened within a minute, and with a near-infinite zest for life, Little Bai added to the mix with Zheng made the unexpectedly thrilling fight.
Several dozen Heart Core chambers were utterly destroyed, pierced by a powerful beam.
The Shen Ta would only encounter serious injuries if there were any. freewёbnoνel.com
Little Bai instantly recovered, relying on Nei Pan Jin Wu.
It was yet another exchange of life values for Little Bai, and since Yan had long known about these six-winged machines, he had locked them in an unbreakable bond.
Little Bai was only second in strength to Chu Qing among these few people.
Yan was the second strongest in observational awareness, a talent shared by only a few people here.
At the same time as Shen Ta was calculating his tactics, Bai Wu was calculating his advance, but Yan had not anticipated it...
Although he had no direct target, he had predicted the opponent’s location. It was not Shen Ta’s original position, but a calculated one.
Even if Bai Wu was exchanging life values with Yan, he would still aim precisely at Shen Ta.
This was an incredibly precise match.
A terrifying line of fire shot directly at the Heart Core chamber of Shen Ta!
Because they perceived fundamentally different viewing principles from the three observers, they could not evade the eyes of Sky Sight and Eye of Observation, equipped with Gemo Corporation’s defense systems.
It was just a decoy position, for the screen shield was hiding the perception, and it was not really Shen Ta’s original position.
After Bai Wu was finally hit in a certain position, it’s as if holding the Scepter of God, and swinging it like the end of the world! The combat machine body loaded with Slokou’s Artillery Eyes reached its greatest potential.
...it was for this that it died a second time, yet not in vain.
At this Shen Ta banquet, there are but a few people who could feel its presence as the strongest, let alone catch a glimpse of it with their own eyes in the future.
Once the screen is activated, they will have no way of sensing it.
These godless people will surely face divine punishment!
How vile, gambling with their lives! They choose to trade their own lives for Bai Wu at the banquet, replacing Bai Wu with themselves, causing serious harm to Bai Wu.
In an instant, it realized what a capable entity it was dealing with! The speed of the Shen Ta banquet’s reaction was unbelievable.
"Activate the screen!"
Right now, at this very moment, the Shen Ta banquet is nothing but a live target.
Bai Wu was slow to launch an attack, although this was just a move in a bigger plan... But he had never thought so far ahead at all.
But indeed, what was being traded was Bai Wu’s life! And that’s still not the position! It’s this chess piece that truly matters, but only at this moment did it realize the grave significance of the question...
All of a sudden, it looked upon a strange image, preparing itself for the transformation at the Shen Ta banquet.
He must admit—Little Bai’s blood rain is simply a blood bank! The spring of life itself! It’s life water crystals!
...but he must accept the terrifying lethality of a Mechanical Race’s weapon against the original lifeforms.
To Bai Wu, it seemed like his two hands were targeting somewhere specific, as if readying a precision aim at the Shen Ta banquet.
["You’ll never die forever, my valiant hero... ah, hah! You’ve come back to life, much to my surprise! But I’m not entirely surprised, you’re a real machine ghost, am I right? I know you better than you think, one, two, three, four, five... you’re still a way off from your death!"]
...three people have already been completely knocked out at the Shen Ta banquet; that’s what this taste means. However, at this very moment, Jiaxie is substituting Bai Wu, taking his place to give Bai Wu a fighting chance at the Mechanism City.
This one blow from his rival is enough to kill.
Although the Slokou eye gear is indeed stronger and not easily damaged but can be overpowered by stronger armor.
Bai Wu’s half-body was devoured immediately, resembling locusts passing through—just like the multiple cannonfire explosions.
Six-winged mechanoid bodies with six wings on their backs suddenly fired, terrifying firepower nozzles installed, targeting Bai Wu.
The Shen Ta meeting had underestimated the combination of Jiaxie and Bai Wu, and the overall battlefield situation.
If one could just predict the enemy’s fire in time, they could preemptively strike the opponent, much like a cowboy quick-draw in the Wild West.
He, Chu Qing, was the one who underestimated Jiaxie’s position, for with Bai Wu’s transformation, Shen Ta knew they would inevitably confront each other.
This taste means he’s now within his own kill range! Bai Wu has transformed into Jiaxie!
Shen Ta seemed to also feel a sort of epiphany upon looking towards Bai Wu’s location.
—The two positions switched at the critical moment—the opportune time for Jiaxie was to simply gaze at the blood and flesh body below in the wind.
The two men struggled in a fierce fight for a full fourteen seconds.
Every move Jiaxie made was unusual in detail; not to be underestimated by his enemies anymore.
From the beginning, they had an unusual mutual understanding of each other’s tactics; it seemed like the Shen Ta banquet and he were mirroring each other in their advances.
Although the enemy was also capable of dodging, he just needed to start calculating his real attacks.
They stood relatively far apart, but soon they were in each other’s fatal range.
From the very beginning, Shen Ta was always wary of Bai Wu’s super powerful fire strength.
But since he couldn’t find an opportunity to launch the weapon, he never made any use of it, because Shen Ta was covered in armor strong enough to resist.
He began to use actual combat to calculate the reaction speed of the Shen Ta meeting.
This made Jiaxie collect his underestimation of the enemy, possessing exceptional beyond-the-sky eyes; he actually managed to gather a dozen Heart Core Mechanoids for this trial.
Jiaxie, in reality, couldn’t get any valuable message from the inside; to the onlooker, it just seemed like a pile of rubbish talk.
Would he really meet with Erleipu’s eye-skin, behaving just like Uncle Ulaga back in his childhood, a fabrication he imagined meeting with Bai Wu some time?
Because it seemed somewhat worried about its own position, as if there were some small selection hands within its own vicinity, but ultimately it never switched position, making it look like he was the one worrying on Jiaxie’s behalf.
How impressive! He actually managed to lay out a trap to force his hand in selecting the option directly! But still, that bastard... Although it made no sense at all! He took a hit once just to keep in mind not to underestimate someone who didn’t want his intention to be noticed, let alone strike back!
My team and I were impressed with his performance; it was a hot state as he entered the competition in an instant! However, despite his worries of a possible swap, which seemed very likely, he used a swift left hook! What a fantastic move!
Hearing the sound of Huang Jianxiao’s questioning thoughts on how he managed to make such a move, Bai Wu was careful to note the writing style and format of this encoded message. With Divine Lake’s Eyes only, he couldn’t have possibly realized how quickly Shen Ta initiated an attack.
Erleipu has one type of Eye of Heaven, and one type of Eye of Insight; one is a division captain of the Seventh Armored Group, and the other is one of his two lieutenants of the inspection team. Quite frankly, their synergies, combat compatibility, and combat effectiveness are even better than Nine-Five, and even his own, Jiaxie knew this.
Shen Ta too had started to become murderous at heart, just like Bai Wu.
Jiaxie found it very strange that these two had such a perfect tacit agreement. What was going on?
"That’s just a calculation farther beyond him."
"The opponent can also calculate."
"I’m sure I can match you and fight you out, just show your moves."
Bai Wu also knew the opposing side’s intention.
"What is the standard for the Seventh Army Group’s cabinet allocation?"
Zheng quickly abandoned his mixed thoughts and looked at Bai Wu, who replied with just a single word.
Three people formed a triangular stance.
For Shen Ta, as long as he knew what Little Bai had been through, he would understand that he only needed to rescue the other person, not harm himself, which would be clear; However, Shen Ta didn’t know that Little Bai had experienced anything at all.
This was indeed a wise decision; these two were teaming up again. Bai Wu couldn’t help but feel this was all correct.
However, if Shen Ta had high expectations for himself, he would feel indebted. Inner-heartedly, he also viewed Little Bai as his own pure land. After all, Dedan Erleipu was this kind of man-eating lunatic.
It was very difficult to move someone with such a pure and kind soul like Little Bai.
Shen Ta increasingly felt that this whole situation was very odd... He definitely did not intend for things to turn out this way.
"Man, you did too well; there’s no issue with you, Shen Ta!"
At this moment, Little Bai climbed up and spoke, uttering a rather self-assured line that Shen Ta had not expected.
Shen Ta nodded without saying a word.
The atmosphere of unsheathed swords and drawn bows was about to unfold; the Heart Core was beginning to strategize its next move.
The Heart Core had yet to make a move, but God Tower’s chairman intended to launch an attack, which was originally Shen Ta’s plan.
As soon as Shen Ta arrived in front of him, and Zhixing Jiaxie unfolded his protective gear, Bai Wu’s eyes locked onto the chairman of God Tower with an intimidating glare.
"At least you are still capable of making your militarized mechanoids, but they’re definitely not supposed to be it. You are one difficult person to handle when there’s no mistake in the timing. I, Old Plank, and my mechanical device should work together nicely. We’re still a good team," Bai Wu said.
As soon as Mechanism City’s mess got mixed, he immediately became a noisy brawl. Bai Wu had no way of managing this after Jiaxie was killed in seconds, but Shen Ta, the chairman of God Tower, did.
"Your souls will have even more research value. You guys are not simple pawns; to have such a strong sequence is astonishing. It’s like being in a shuffle of a few of your powers that are really good," Bai Wu mumbled, having made one wrong decision that was very difficult for him to surpass.
However, having made that one wrong decision, it was still difficult for Shen Ta to deal with the resulting awkward situation; once more, the Six-winged Mechanoid reappeared out of the void.
Little Bai quickly got up.
For Shen Ta, this sequence was especially terrifying, as it was almost an invincible series, mostly because he had previously collaborated with Zheng Yue, which evoked his fear.
Dedan Erleipu would rather have the power of irreversible nirvana metamorphosis than Little Bai, who could survive in the destructive sulfuric acid rain, but Dedan Erleipu was even more afraid of the Word of Nirvana than a direct attack.
The Word of Nirvana would bring Little Bai to an incredibly powerful rate of metamorphic rejuvenation; Little Bai would certainly not die.
Because he saw something else outside of the picture frame very quickly, Shen Ta was having difficulty not only because Little Bai was dying but because this was not the only reason for his hardships (the complete progression rate was 81/001).
