111: 111.

“Daoist Skill: Divine Steel Bomb 111: 111.

“Daoist Skill: Divine Steel Bomb These days, the Patrol Bureau was hardly a place one would willingly visit.

Even ordinary Patrol could clear the streets, earning them the curse of “Black Dog” from the common people.

Thus, the vicinity of the Third Patrol Bureau was extremely quiet, conveniently serving Lu Li and his companion’s purposes.

Right now, the two of them, dressed in cloaks that hid their faces for night operations, stood in the dark alley across from the street of the Patrol Bureau.

In the lunar October, it had already turned dark at just past seven o’clock.

Only the palm-sized drones blended perfectly into the night, their lenses swinging back and forth, giving them a crystal-clear view of the enemy.

“Six people, five of them in Knight Armor!”

Xiao Cha handed the remote control to Lu Li to see.

His gaze fell upon the five subordinates of Li Guanqi, each donned in steel armor that resembled ‘Milan Armor.’

The lines were smooth, hugging and covering the body entirely, leaving only a slit around the eyes.

Lu Li analyzed, “Looking at the design…

the thickness doesn’t exceed one centimeter; a machine gun could easily penetrate it.”

The W95 was already designed to combat vehicles, its armor-piercing rounds easily perforating 2-centimeter-thick homogeneous armor steel within a hundred meters!

Besides, with Otherworld’s metallurgical technology, the steel material was certainly not as good as on Blue Star.

Xiao Cha continued, “They have Firearms too…

Maxim machine guns!”

The enemy, clad in thick Milan Steel Armor and each armed with a Maxim, indeed looked formidable.

However, Lu Li and his companion were not the slightest bit intimidated, but rather eager to see how ‘tough’ they really were!

But there was a problem right now—Chen Zhizhong was always around!

Xiao Cha frowned, “That person beside Uncle Chen is Li Guanqi.

They have been together the whole time; it’s easy to hurt Chen Zhizhong by mistake if we open fire.”

Lu Li slung a rocket launcher over his back and said,

“Then let’s ‘startle the snake by hitting the grass.’ We’ll take out those subordinates first, and Mr.

Chen will naturally find an opportunity to leave.”

“Let’s do that!” Xiao Cha fixed the drone remote control onto her arm, adding,

“We have to remember our time is limited, the battle must be concluded within 3 minutes!

Any delay could complicate matters!”

Dragging the fight could be troublesome, not to mention the official army, but also the various masters rushing over, therefore they had to be quick!

Lu Li nodded, “Almost there, let’s stick to the plan.”

He looked down at the ground where two large leather cases lay quietly.

~~~~~~~~~~

At this moment, five guards dressed in heavy steel armor were standing arrogantly in the courtyard of the Patrol Bureau, laughing and talking:

“I told that woman, ‘Madam, you wouldn’t want your son to be expelled from the Sect, would you?’ And she undressed obediently.

I was having a good time, but the third guy intervened, making a bloody mess and killing her.”

The one speaking was a man with a sharp voice, standing very close to a Big man in two-meter-tall steel armor, both of them cackling incessantly.

“Didn’t her son come after you guys vengefully?”

“He was turned into a zombie long ago by the young master after his Soul Extraction.

Thinking of pursuing Cultivation without strength, it’s simply hilarious.”

…

The imported steel armor on their bodies and the machine guns in their hands gave the five men a strong sense of security.

They were confident they could tear apart any invading enemy.

Little did they know their every move was already fully exposed to the enemy, even caught in the crosshairs of a machine gun!

The next second, a loud noise like a pick hammer hitting the ground erupted violently.

The man with the sharp voice was the first to be unlucky, struck by five 12.7MM caliber armor-piercing bullets.

The 1CM thick steel armor was effortlessly penetrated by “Tungsten Carbide” bullet heads.

Sparks shot from the man’s chest plate, followed by five egg-sized holes exploding outwards, chunks of flesh and blood plasma spewing from inside.

He uttered only half a scream before his chest cavity was churned into a mess, falling to the ground with a clang, dead.

The companion beside this man died in the same way, as machine gun bullets would deform upon piercing steel armor, stirring the flesh inside into a mess along an erratic trajectory.

The other three snapped out of their shock, dodging with horror on their faces.

The steel armor slightly slowed their movements, and Xiao Cha aimed at the third person, pulling the trigger just as the muzzle flashed fire.

But the other two couldn’t be dealt with in time, already on the verge of escaping.

Suddenly, the sound of a second pickaxe hitting the ground rang out, and another machine gun fired!

It was Lu Li at the helm!

He was operating a [Metal Giant Hand] the size of a dining table, firing the W95 clamped between two fingers.

This way, he could maintain a Daoist Skill alert while also counteracting the immense recoil from the machine gun.

“It really is exhilarating!”

Under the sweep of the heavy machine gun, the two-meter-tall steel-armored strongmen exploded like tomatoes repeatedly prodded by chopsticks, bursting holes and plasma.

Yet the last one had already reached the entrance of the office building, just one step shy of entering.

Lu Li entered “Bullet Time,” with everything in his vision slowing down by 40 percent, aiming just ahead of the target and firing.

A 12.7MM bullet whistled through the air, coincidentally caught by the target’s head.

The thick steel helmet burst open with a large bloody hole, a burst of red and white splattering as the body, driven by momentum, fell into the office building.

At this point, only five seconds had passed since the first gunshot, and all five battlefield meat grinders were dead, their Maxims reduced to mere ornaments.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Enemy attack!”

Li Guanqi reacted quickly, realizing what happened the moment the gunshot sounded.

He glanced at a metal box beside him, the very one that the two-meter-tall man had carried, weighing 500 pounds.

The box was opened by an invisible force, and parts of steel armor flew out.

Arms, lower legs, chest, back…

these parts flew one after another toward Li Guanqi, assembling and fitting onto his body.

Accompanied by the helmet settling down, he instantly donned a set of gothic steel armor, reminiscent of Iron Man transforming.

But by this time, Chen Zhizhong had long since vanished, and the gunfire outside had abruptly ceased.

Li Guanqi hurriedly looked outside, only to see the corpses of his men littering the ground.

“They’re all dead!?”

Li Guanqi was shocked and, with the eyesight granted by his Zuowang Marrow Cleansing, instantly caught a glimpse of the muzzle flashes in the alley across the street!

He quickly leaned to the side, narrowly avoiding bursts from the heavy machine gun in the nick of time.

The window shattered instantly, and the wall exploded with several large holes, with various fragments pinging off the steel armor with a clang.

“A machine gun!?”

Li Guanqi was startled, for such modern weapons were only equipped by the Governor’s Standard Soldiers, and he couldn’t get them himself!

With no time to think between life and death, he reached out and grabbed an openwork Metal Ball.

He condensed the surging Spirit to the size of a ping-pong ball and intertwined it with his inner breath, pouring it into the Metal Ball.

“Daoist Skill: Divine Steel Bomb!”

Li Guanqi threw the Metal Ball out the window with a flick of his hand, which, with a swoosh, flew toward Lu Li and his companion at 150 meters per second.

Lu Li, in Bullet Time, was prepared for this move; the Metal Giant Hand instantly intercepted it midair.

But with a loud bang, the inner breath and Spirit suddenly expanded, causing the Metal Ball to explode like a grenade.

The shockwave was absorbed by the Metal Giant Hand, and the steel shards meant to scatter and rip through enemies were also stopped.

This attack achieved little, but Li Guanqi gained the breathing room he sought.

While Lu Li and his companion were slightly distracted by the explosion, Li Guanqi summoned two more openwork Metal Balls.

In the blink of an eye, after infusing them with Spirit and inner breath, two steel palms waved, volleying them toward Lu Li and his companion like a volleyball.

This time, the speed of the openwork Metal Balls had already surpassed 200 meters per second!
