Lin Chen lay on the floor motionlessly with the odor of the unbearable stench permeating the place. His entire body was struck numb by the anesthetics. He could not move a single inch despite how fast he was.
The man, with bolts of electricity running across his body, slid Lin Chen a condescending glare, "Are you Lin Chen of Jiangmen City? I have heard great things about you. I heard that you are pretty fast. However, you can never be faster than the speed of light no matter how fast you are."
Lin Chen"s brows knitted together tightly. He only managed to avoid the opponent"s attacks by using his superb premonition skills. Before each attack, Lin Chen had already sensed it coming and managed to avoid it narrowly by making the first move.
However, there was no room for escape in a large-scale attack exhibited just now.
That man did not leave after taking the government apostles down. With his hand grabbing onto the bundle of exposed electrical cables, numerous jolts of electricity exploded all over the place. His entire body was illuminated as if he were a light bulb.
A few minutes later, Lin Chen had already begun recovering some of his mobility. The opponent only used a small amount of current which explained the minor injuries received.
Just when Lin Chen"s fingers were trembling in the air, the man"s voice once again rang in the air, "I am warning you … it"s better that you do not move …"
With his eyes glued on that man, Lin Chen tried communicating with him, "Who are you? Why are you stealing electricity?"
"You can call me Mike. You know that I"m just here for a little bit of electricity. You don"t have to worry. I"ll be gone soon."
Lin Chen retorted, "You won"t be able to escape. My reinforcements are arriving already!"
Mike cackled and replied, "Haven"t you already realized that your extreme speed is meaningless to me? My power is the nemesis of yours."
A muscle in Lin Chen"s jaw twitched but he chose to remain silent.
However, Lin Chen"s silence somehow excited Mike as he began announcing impa.s.sionedly, "You Chinese are truly too conservative. I"ve heard that many countries have already begun constructing a wide-scale apostle army. Meanwhile, your current government continues to adopt such a strict position towards this! You will lag behind everyone!"
At this moment, a black shadow emerged directly from the ground. It was like a spirit that could travel across solid matters.
The electric currents running through Mike"s body began flickering when he noticed the appearance of this unexpected guest before asking, "Who are you? What power do you have?"
Finally, he had a clear view of this mysterious figure. It was a man, a headless man.
Lin Chen, who remained sprawled across the floor, took a good look at Zhao Yao"s appearance and suppressed a scream, "No Brain? Why is he suddenly here?"
Zhao Yao swept his eyes across the bunker and understood the exact situation instantly. With his headless body positioned towards Mike, he asked in a raspy voice, "You are the one stealing electricity?"
Mike smiled amiably when he noticed the anger in Zhao Yao"s voice. The flickering on him intensified as he continued absorbing more electricity before replying, "What"s wrong? You seem pretty angry. Don"t tell me you are interested in a fight against me?" Mike was more than confident now that he was fully charged with electricity.
Zhao Yao maintained his cool and replied in that same voice, "it is not considered a fight when it is one-sided."
At the same time, all his supercats had already turned extremely agitated.
"It"s that guy!" Matcha roared with his finger dangling in his direction, "We don"t have to abide by the rules when we are facing a sc.u.m like him. We will take him on all at once and destroy him!"
The smile evaporated from Mike"s face when he heard Zhao Yao"s smug response. Immediately, beams of light shot out of his eyes.
"Stupid fellow, you are simply …"
The next moment, he had already collapsed to the floor, bawling in pain. Firstly, blood was oozing from the numerous cuts on his face. During the timefreeze, Matcha began his onslaught of scratch at six times his normal speed.
When he opened his mouth, he vomited a pool of yellow fluid. That was Matcha"s work when he peed in his mouth during the timefreeze.
Matcha roared, "D*mn it, if not for you going around stealing electricity, I would already have been a legend!"
Mike"s brain had already exploded with fury when he vomited the pool of urine. However, his body had already begun sinking into the ground with Gaia"s power. Gaia stared viciously at him and screamed, "This is the price you pay for taking my electricity!"
All these time, Ares had enveloped all the supercats within his impregnable deflective field, protecting them from the effects of Mike"s attacks.
Fūjin"s power slammed into his groin which put a pause to his incessant vomiting when he let out an ear-piercing scream and threw his arms in the air.
"Fool! What have you done to me!" He suffered from all sorts of injuries all over his body. The intense stench continued lingering in his mouth while his body remained stuck in concrete. His temples throbbed with rage as he roared, "You have truly infuriated me!"
From the looks of it, it seemed like the headless horseman was behind every single attack.
The jolts of electricity continued encircling his body at an insane speed but they grew brighter and brighter. They looked just like mini suns...o...b..ting his body.
Ares cleared his throat before shouting, "Hokuto s.h.i.+nten Rai!" With his balled fists hanging in the air, Ares slammed them down as Mike was thrust further underground following a loud thud.
The blinding bolts of electricity had been released by Mike as they zoomed across the underground bunker at warp speed.
"You … you!" The electricity continued illuminating his head, turning him into a human flashlight. He continued fuming with anger but there was nothing he could do with his entire body except for his head buried underground.
However, that head was exactly what Elizabeth needed. With a dry laugh, Elizabeth swung her paws in the air and sent a wave of illusion swarming in his direction.
"The illusion of Elizabeth"s sorrow!"
With the activation of Elizabeth"s attack, a series of heart-wrenching pain pierced into Mike"s body, plunging him into utter despair.
With a sly smile on her face, Elizabeth commented, "This is the ultimate culmination of Game of Thrones, Autumn in my Heart, Secret Garden, My Love from the Star, Winter Sonata … A total of 7749 gut-wrenching episodes all crystallized within this illusion. Experience my pain!"
Suddenly, Mike"s eyes turned red as tears welled up in it, "D*mn it, why do I suddenly feel so sad? I just want to cry!" This wave of sadness had dampened his urge to fight. As a result, the jolts of electricity dimmed down and turned fainter.
The tears welled up in his eyes began sliding down his cheeks, before falling to the ground. The soft sobbing soon turned into an all-out bawling.
The surrounding people stared at this ridiculous scene dumbfoundedly. Lin Chen thought, "I never expected him to be so emotional." He struggled to turn his head around, only to see the headless horseman standing at the exact spot because of Roly Poly"s power of invisibility. He had torn Mike down with this series of punches.
Matcha and the remaining cats could not bear to continue with their attacks when they saw how affected Mike was.
Matcha lifted his shoulders in a half shrug and commented, "I only peed in your mouth. Do you have to act in this manner?"
Ares looked in Fūjin"s direction and asked, "Did you accidentally injure his genitals during the previous attack?"
Fūjin shook his head violently before concluding, "I don"t think he"s crying because of physical pain."
Zhao Yao was left speechless by this man"s behavior before muttering, "Hey, you are already a grown man. Is there really a need to cry so much?"
"I … I have no idea why I am crying!" The man struggled to complete his sentence before he resumed bawling.
