Chapter 754 Did I Become Blind?
After locking onto Orozen’s location, Han Xiao immediately contacted Feidin and Hila.
“Where are you?”
The scene of a beast fighting colosseum appeared on the screen with a couple of beasts from different planets fighting each other in the plaza. The plaza was separated from the spectator stands with a protective s.h.i.+eld, and the stands were filled with people. Feidin was seated within the crowd, and both Hila and Aurora were beside him with all their attention focused on the plaza.
“This is the biggest gambling den in the city, so we’re gambling here,” Feidin replied helplessly.
“Since when do you like gambling?” Han Xiao asked with doubt.
“Cough, I don’t like it, but Chen Xing insisted on coming. She said that it would be a waste to not collect free money and asked me to earn some…”
Han Xiao’s mouth contorted slightly and asked, “So, what about the other two?”
“They insisted on following me…”
Just as he finished saying those words, the battle in the stadium ended. A large python with screen scales spat out a venomous fog and paralyzed the final beast.
“We won again! We won again!” Aurora waved her arm excitedly. “Sister, we’ve won four times in a row now!”
Hila nodded before turning around to look at Feidin with a hint of addiction in her eyes. “What will you be betting on next?”
Feidin shrugged helplessly, as if he did not wish to lead them further astray.
Han Xiao felt his head ache upon witnessing such a scene and said, “Stop playing already. We have something to do. Come and meet up with me. I will be waiting for you guys at City No. 2.1 will send you the coordinates later.”
Han Xiao then hung up and left the port for City No. 2 while maintaining his connection to the main system of the floating city.
Why bother waiting for another day? Han Xiao decided to move against Orozen and his gang immediately!
However, Sardeem was a subordinate of the Mechanic Empire, so Han Xiao did not plan to reveal his true ident.i.ty. Furthermore, he had already obtained the blueprints, and there was no need for him to remain on Planet Macipher. Bame’s ident.i.ty was already useless, so he was not afraid of making trouble under Barne’s name. He did not need to worry about the repercussions of dealing with Orozen on the surface of the planet.
Han Xiao waited at the gathering point of City No. 2 for a while, and Hila’s group of three met up with him soon after. The moment that they saw Han Xiao, Aurora immediately detected Han Xiao’s change and let out a gasp.
Tour life force has been strengthened again!”
Feidin and Hila were both stunned as they heard that.
Han Xiao did not deny it and nodded. “I have a feeling that I have already touched the door to becoming a Beyond Grade A Super.”
Hila’s body shook, and she looked at Han Xiao with a complicated gaze.
Feidin was extremely happy for Han Xiao and asked, “Are we going to leave Planet Macipher?”
Yes, but before we leave, I have something else to do…”
Han Xiao immediately explained to the others about what he intended to do.
Hila nodded. “Since the enemies are Grade A Supers, Feidin and I will accompany you, and Aurora should wait on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.”
Feidin did not have any issue with killing a wanted criminal, but he was a little puzzled. “With your strength, you shouldn’t need our help to deal with two Calamity Grade Supers, right?”
Han Xiao shook his head, and his tone became solemn. “Don’t look down on them. They are subordinates of EsG.o.d and have an EsG.o.d doppelganger with Beyond Grade A strength. We need to kill them the instant the battle breaks out, so I will be going all out from the start. I will be more confident with both of you there!”
Upon hearing that this matter was related to a Beyond Grade A Super, Hila and Feidin both became serious.
“If the enemy summons EsG.o.d’s doppelganger, my life won’t be in danger because of my strength, but it is different for the both of you. Thus, both of you must listen to my orders; we only have a single chance.”
Han Xiao immediately described his plan to them.
He had already suffered a loss once, so he did not make any rash moves this time. Because the enemy did not know of his existence, he decided to first make sufficient preparations.
City No. 2’s Star Bridge Inn was where Colin and the others were staying.
Star Bridge Inn was located in the red light district of City No. 2, and this was a district with various entertainment facilities. This inn was located in the middle of the street and was extremely eye catching.
Colin and his gang had arrived on Planet Macipher that day. After sending their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps for repairs, they spent their money like water in the inn and called for hostesses of different races to serve them.
The members of Fallen Ark naturally did not have any discipline and were used to indulging in their desires. Even though Colin was extremely focused on the mission, he did not reject this activity. The moment they began their long return journey, they would have to spend a few years in the desolate universe belt. Those last few days on Planet Macipher would be their final chance to enjoy themselves.
Colin pushed aside the hostess who was sleeping on him and climbed out from his bed. The large bed was currently filled with more than ten exhausted females of different species.
He then put on his robe to cover his scarred body and took out a bottle of beer from the fridge. Finis.h.i.+ng half the bottle in a single mouth, he walked to the window of the room and looked outside at the view.
It was already late in the night, but there were still many pedestrians on the streets. However, at least forty to fifty percent of them were drunk. Green and red lights intersected each other to form rainbow-colored lights in the sky of the city, and the entire planet seemed to be indulging in luxuries. From time to time, an aircraft would cut across the sky; they were the mechanical patrol squad making their rounds.
Looking out at the scenery, Colin recalled all of his actions over the past few months. He had performed two great feats in the Shattered Star Ring. He had thrown the Star Pupil Holy Race into complete chaos with their local Beyond Grade A Super being tricked by him as well. Following which, he had managed to complete his mission and retreat successfully. Colin could not help but have a sense of pride in his heart.
He then touched the Evolution Cube, which was hanging on his neck, and smirked with disdain.
“Ah…the Shattered Star Ring.”
This Star Field did not amount to much.
Just when this thought surfaced in his head, a blinding light exploded from the window before him.
Boom!
The window frame exploded the very next moment!
The shockwave from the explosion sent the unprepared Colin flying backward. His back smashed through the wall of the room, and he landed in the corridor of the inn. At the same time, a similar explosion happened in all the rooms, and all of Colin’s subordinates were sent flying.
The entire inn experienced explosions with rocks and concrete slabs flying in all directions. A huge dust cloud enveloped the entire inn, and the inn was reduced to ruins.
A naked Orozen also fell into the corridor, and both Colin and Orozen looked at each other. The look of fury in their eyes revealed the same message.
There is someone who actually dares ambush us?
Could they be bounty hunters?
The enemy was definitely after the bounty issued by the Tyla Civilization, but with both of them present, the bounty hunters were seeking death!
Colin glared at Orozen fiercely and was about to unleash his Calamity Grade strength to get rid of the bounty hunters. The very next moment, two mental attacks swept across the entire inn. One was dark red and the other colorless.
Hu!
The brains of all his subordinates exploded, and only Colin and Orozen were able to endure the two mental attacks. However, they felt a splitting headache, and their minds blanked out, temporarily losing control of their body.
There were actually two Calamity Grade Supers among the bounty hunters?
The faces of Colin and Orozen changed greatly.
But before they could even struggle, a brilliant ray of light shone in their eyes again.
This was the last scene that both of them saw.
Outside the Star Bridge Inn, the pedestrians were all shocked and hid as far away as they could.
A moment ago, a large mechanical army had suddenly appeared and surrounded the entire inn. The mechanical army rained down heavy fire on the inn with tens of thousands of shots being fired every second.
Boom!
The street that the Star Bridge Inn was located on had been flattened!
The crowd on the streets were blocked out by the mechanical army and could not see what was going on inside.
On the other side of the encirclement, Han Xiao watched as the mechanical soldiers brought two corpses before him. The two corpses belonged to Colin and Orozen.
Before either of them could even fight back, they were wiped out by the ambush of the mechanical army!
Han Xiao had tried his best to overestimate the combat strength of the enemy and was prepared to personally engage with the enemy when the mechanical army rained down their fire from the side. However, he had never imagined that the two Calamity Grade Supers would die under a single round of fire. He was truly dumbfounded.
This had gone much more successfully than he expected.
Han Xiao had formulated a few backup plans but realized that they were all completely useless. The ease of this mission truly shocked him.
Weren’t they the subordinates of EsG.o.d? Why were they so weak?
I thought that the subordinates of EsG.o.d would be a little bit more powerful. It doesn’t feel any different from killing other Calamity Grade Supers…
Han Xiao’s mouth contorted, and he felt as though he had just plunged his fists into cotton.
This was no different from killing a chicken with an ox’s blade.
Oh, it may be because I just had a Cla.s.s Advancement, which increased my strength. Thus, I am able to suppress ordinary Calamity Grade Supers more easily. Right, neither of them have a talent that ignores true damage. I triggered the True Damage attack thrice, so it’s not too surprising for them to have been taken out in a single go.
Han Xiao could only persuade himself as such.
Originally, he could already suppress almost all Calamity Grade Supers. After completing his Cla.s.s Advancement, not to mention two Calamity Grade Supers, he would be able to face even twenty of them.
With Orozen dead, the [Harrofal’s Revenge] mission was also completed. He then got Phillip to use one of his mechanical suits to take Orozen’s corpse back to the Tyla Civilization in exchange for the bounty.
At this moment, Han Xiao looked at the other corpse and spotted the cube on Colin’s neck.
What is this thing? It actually wasn’t destroyed despite the attacks of the mechanical army?
Han Xiao bent down to pick up the black cube with curiosity.
The instant that he touched the black cube, an introduction of the item popped up on his interface.
Glancing at the introduction, Han Xiao’s jaw dropped, and he almost did not dare to believe what he had seen. Evolution… Cube?
Did I become blind?
Isn’t this Psyker’s Universal Treasure? Why would it appear here?
Did I just pick up a divine weapon on the streets?
Han Xiao held onto the Evolution Cube and was stunned silly on the spot.
He then came to an enlightenment.
Turning around abruptly, his gaze was fixed on Feidin, who was by his side.
“Why are you looking at me?”
Feidin felt his hair stand from Han Xiao’s gaze.
Han Xiao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and gave a thumbs up.
“Feidin! Awesome!”
Feidin had a face full of confusion.
A few minutes later, Sardeem led a large machinery army and arrived at City No. 2.
Only a pile of rubble was left behind, along with a huge crowd watching by the side. Han Xiao and his mechanical army had long disappeared.
The security squad hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield but could not find a single clue.
The group of people being monitored were all killed without their corpses being left behind. I can’t even find a single trace of their attackers!
Sardeem was truly exasperated.
Because of Han Xiao’s control, the scouts that Sardeem had used to spy on Colin did not send any information to Sardeem. All the mechanical patrol squads did not stop Han Xiao’s group, and the surveillance footage had been destroyed.
Up until now, Sardeem had been kept in the dark and did not know what had happened.
Just who killed Colin and his group?
Just how powerful would an enemy capable of instantly killing a Calamity Grade Super be?
What was the objective of the attackers? Were they bounty hunters, were they Psyker’s special force, or was there a hidden reason?
If the attackers were not Psyker’s men, this meant that the people under his watch had been killed with the attackers disappearing. Just how would he answer to Psyker?
Sardeem felt a headache coming on and could only report the situation honestly to Psyker.
