CHAPTER 500: CHAPTER 190: ENDING THE MYTH, LIFE IN FULL BLOOM, ASPIRATION SOARING TO THE SKIES_2

The opponent thought to himself that perhaps Ren Zhong, this comet-like rising star, indeed had some extraordinary means.

The opponent wished him a successful start.

Ren Zhong accepted it complacently and with peace of mind.

Under the lenses of dozens of professional photographers who were constantly following the Cold-blooded Butcher, Ren Zhong and the Cold-blooded Butcher engaged in a life-and-death battle outside Starfire Town.

...

Ren Zhong died.

Once again.

The battle process wasn’t very mysterious.

At this time, Ren Zhong had a carrying power of 4831.06 and an impressive brain reaction index of 10292.3.

If we only consider reaction speed, he was already a genuine Fifth Level Mechanical Warrior, and he had proficiently mastered the Perfect Level Sixth Sense that only peak Fifth Level warriors could achieve.

Moreover, Ren Zhong was not that poor wasteland dweller from High Mountain Town, and the material strength of his armor far exceeded that of ordinary Fifth Level standard equipment, enough to significantly reduce the impact of the Cold-blooded Butcher’s heavy blows.

Yet, at the beginning of their clash, Ren Zhong was still at a complete disadvantage.

The reason was simple: even though the Cold-blooded Butcher was emotionless, he wasn’t foolish.

On the contrary, he was extremely rational.

Seeing that the opponent wasn’t a wasteland dweller, but a wealthy Citizen, the Cold-blooded Butcher decisively donned his equipment.

He couldn’t operate an exoskeleton like a Mechanical Warrior, but he could wear a Biochemical Combat Suit to enhance his reaction ability, mobility, and defense to a certain extent.

Under his Biochemical Combat Suit, he added several layers of Anti-energy Armor, impact-resistant lining, and an Anti-Scanning Liner Device.

If Ren Zhong’s actual combat power hadn’t even exceeded that of the Fifth Level Mechanical Warrior from High Mountain Town, he would probably have been killed in seconds.

The two exchanged blows back and forth outside Starfire Town, clashing dozens of times in just over ten seconds.

Ren Zhong’s attacks mostly came from the tracking missiles and mid-range shotgun on his body.

Unfortunately, the fully armed Cold-blooded Butcher had astonishing defense, and these low-power ammunition had little effect when hitting him.

And the Cold-blooded Butcher’s reaction was too fast, his maneuverability was terrifyingly agile.

He could always detect Ren Zhong’s special ammunition mixed between ordinary ammunition, and then either evade or block it with the small shields on his arms.

As for Ren Zhong’s Ice Flame Giant Blade, it was truly sharp, making the Butcher very cautious.

Unfortunately, the opponent was slippery, and Ren Zhong couldn’t land a hit.

Of course, Ren Zhong was able to hold on without defeat mainly due to the Ice Flame Giant Blade.

Clearly, the Cold-blooded Butcher wasn’t the pure brute force style he appeared to be in past combat videos.

In the past, he looked like a brute simply because his opponents were too weak, so he only needed to engage head-on.

But once he sensed something was wrong, the Cold-blooded Butcher would immediately change tactics, becoming a cunning and sly serpent, as cautious and deceitful as possible, more like a killing machine than the Faceless Men in the training grounds.

He never made a mistake, always leveraging his level advantage to gradually wear down Ren Zhong’s energy.

After nearly half an hour of entanglement, seeing his energy index drop below 30% without being able to take down the opponent, Ren Zhong sighed and injected the potion.

With the two kinds of potion entering his body, his brain reaction index immediately increased sixfold, reaching the 60,000 mark.

The composite genes further made his body inside the armor more superhuman, turning him more into an Armored Soldier than the Cold-blooded Butcher.

Ren Zhong disabled the protective acceleration limit valve inside his armor and began to exert his full strength.

Five minutes later, the Cold-blooded Butcher was slain under his blade.

He used the true battlefield prediction ability that Ma Xiaoling had once talked about, also known as Time Intuition.

This was exclusive to Level Six Professionals.

By capturing comprehensive information on the battlefield, he accurately predicted the Cold-blooded Butcher’s charging direction, and then positioned the fully powered Ice Flame Giant Blade in the path the opponent must take, accurately striking the damaged area on the opponent’s armor, and then splitting it into two with sheer force.

Ren Zhong won with flair and boldness.

The people of Starfire Town raised their arms and shouted.

Ma Dafu was moved to tears.

Ma Xiaoling frowned tightly.

Chen Hanyu, Zheng Tian, Yujin, and others, who had defied orders and sneaked back to Starfire Town, were overwhelmed with excitement.

Ju Qingmeng rushed forward, seemingly wanting to hug him.

However... Ren Zhong took a step back, maintaining distance from everyone.

He hovered quietly in mid-air, gazing down at the crowd below.

Ignoring the livid-faced personnel from the Mengdu Group and Purple Crystal Mining, and ignoring the bewildered investigation officials, Ren Zhong focused intently on the wasteland dwellers of Starfire Town who were ecstatic because of him.

He saw an unusual light in their faces.
