Chapter 736: Hitting His Own Teammate! (Bonus Update)
That bullet, after taking down over a dozen people, accelerated to a terrifying speed!
It flew straight toward Kaiqi's temple.
As a Diamond-level peak power-type Spirit Martial artist,
Kaiqi's physical body was extremely tough; otherwise, he wouldn't have been sent to garrison Nova Fortress!
His perception of danger immediately alerted him, and he subconsciously reached out to grab it.
"Boom!"
The bullet's immense impact force pierced right through his palm and slammed into Kaiqi's temple!
Kaiqi's head snapped to the side, and he was sent flying sideways for seventy or eighty meters!
The bullet flattened into a disc, blood gushed from his temple, but it failed to break through his defense!
Kaiqi: !!!
"Who the hell hit me?"
He scanned the surroundings but found no trace of the enemy!
Frowning with alertness, he felt more and more that something was off.
Could it really be Jiangnan and his group? But how was that possible?
Yet there was no time to worry about that; if the giant centipede wasn't dealt with soon, Nova Fortress would be destroyed by it!
Kaiqi spread his arms wide, blocking the giant centipede's path!
He planted his feet into the ground, facing the oncoming centipede head-on!
His face was full of bravado!
"In ancient times, Superman caught planes; today, Kaiqi crashes into a train!"
"Come on! Let's see who's tougher!"
Absolutely confident in his physical abilities, Kaiqi chose to clash head-on with the giant centipede!
On the rooftop, Jiangnan grinned. "Brother Feng, don't use the gun anymore, it's too trashy. I've got something even more awesome, perfect for you!"
As he spoke, he pulled a small slingshot out of the Alternate Dimension and offered it to Ling Feng like a treasure.
At that moment, not only Ling Feng froze, but even Gong Lin, Wang Ba, and the others all looked dumbfounded.
Where did you break off that lousy tree branch to make a slingshot?
Could it get any shabbier?
Ling Feng was speechless: "What's so awesome about it? As an internationally recognized weapon master, you want me to use a slingshot to kill enemies? I'm embarrassed..."
Wang Ba chuckled: "Boss Nan, you don't plan to use this thing to sneak and break the glass of Nova Fortress, do you?"
Gong Lin snickered: "Boss Nan, this little brat, could definitely do something like that!"
Jiangnan glared: "Look down on it, do you? It's the Abyss Nightmare! The nightmare of the Nightless City!"
Yet everyone still had a "(≖_≖)" expression.
Boss Nan must be trying to trick someone again, right?
No matter how you spin this broken slingshot, you can't make a flower out of it!
Jiangnan pouted, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers. A Void Black Hole erupted!
"Boom!"
A building on the left was devoured completely, compressed into a Black Pearl, leaving a three-hundred-meter-wide crater in its place.
Everyone shuddered. Just stepping into Platinum, a casual snap produced such terrifying destructive power?
Are you a monster?
Jiangnan grabbed the Black Pearl: "Let me demonstrate!"
With that, he Teleported away, his figure flickering through the air, and in an instant, he was three thousand meters above Kaiqi!
To deal with a meat-tank like Kaiqi, of course, he needed armor-piercing rounds!
Ling Feng and the others were stunned: "No way? He really went? Going after a Diamond with that broken slingshot?"
Wu Liang said calmly: "Standard procedure. Boss Nan has fought Dao Heaven with a stool before. Don't panic."
Gong Lin swallowed hard. What kind of iron nerves did Jiangnan's teammates have?
Just then, Jiangnan pulled back the slingshot in midair, and the Black Pearl emitted an unbearably dazzling red glow!
Mind you, this Black Pearl was formed by compressing three hundred meters of matter with the Void Black Hole!
Its mass was many times heavier than before.
It should be quite satisfying, right?
(๑˃᷄ڡ･ิ)つY−−＝≡✹
"Whoosh!"
The red spirit light shot out instantly, looping through the air at incredible speed!
It flew straight toward the center of Kaiqi's spread-eagle stance.
Like a young swallow returning to its nest, the spirit light always found where it needed to go!
But at this moment, Kaiqi's attention was entirely on the giant centipede charging toward him, completely unaware of the rapidly approaching red spirit light!
By the time he noticed, the spirit light was already upon him!
"What is this again..."
A hit!
A "crack" sounded, like an egg smashing against a stone!
Kaiqi's body froze instantly, his eyes wide!
His face turned from white to blue, then to red. He roared to the sky, crying in pain!
Σ(||⊗口ಥ): "Aoaoao～"
[Kaiqi's resentment value +1000!]
His body trembled, bent over, hands clutching his crotch!
"Who hit me again..."
Before he could finish, the giant centipede, charging at four times the speed of sound, slammed into him!
The dazzlingly bright centipede head smashed harshly against Kaiqi's skull!
"Boom!"
Without any surprise, Kaiqi was sent flying like a high-speed train!
His body shot out like a cannonball, smashing through seven buildings before crashing through the city wall!
The centipede threw him right outside the fortress!
[Kaiqi's resentment value +1000!]
[Kaiqi's...]
On the rooftop, everyone's eyes were wide, faces full of horror!
The hit on Kaiqi made every male present shiver and instinctively step back.
It was pure instinct!
Jiangnan Teleported back to the rooftop!
"Red spirit light? Isn't that the Original Sin Heavenly Punishment? This—you—holy crap!"
"Was it you who hit all those guys in the Nightless City? Even the Odin Divine Lord? Sigh～"
"Damn Original Sin Heavenly Punishment—you're the mastermind behind the scenes!"
"You made the whole city live in fear. Are you a devil or what?"
After witnessing Jiangnan's technique firsthand, everyone finally confirmed that Boss Nan was the Original Sin Heavenly Punishment!
The culprit who had thrown the entire Nightless City into panic was this guy!
Jiangnan looked shy and embarrassed.
(∗❛ั̫❛ั∗): "Don't praise me so much. I'm a little shy～"
Wang Ba was about to go crazy: "Hey hey hey! No one is praising you! Does this guy have no self-awareness?"
Hai Di and You Ke were stunned!
So Original Sin Heavenly Punishment = Jiangnan?
Sigh～
Da Lang Mie, who already knew the inside story, snickered. Finally dropping the act?
Jiangnan handed the small slingshot to Ling Feng: "Here, try it! With your ability to accelerate the slingshot's pellets, you should be able to unleash even more terrifying power!"
"You can load it with your own spirit power, or use spirit pearls for greater power!"
"It comes with auto-targeting lock-on and berserk mode, take your pick. Isn't it better than using a gun?"
Ling Feng's drool was practically dripping. Better? It was ridiculously better!
He eagerly took the slingshot, ready to try it out.
But then his body stiffened...
The atmosphere grew incredibly awkward!
Ling Feng: (̿▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿)̄...
"I only have one hand left. I can't draw the bow!"
His mechanical arm had been shattered by his own kick!
Jiangnan covered his face: "I'll take a mechanical arm off the mech later and install it for you!"
Wang Ba was excited, stepping forward and snatching the slingshot from Ling Feng!
"Haha! The one-armed hero can't use it, so let your Ba try it out!"
With that, he drew the slingshot, channeling all his spirit power into the leather pouch, which emitted an unbearably bright light.
Wang Ba was awestruck. So this was the legendary auto-loading system?
Excited beyond belief, he aimed at a Platinum-level tank below and fired!
(๑˃᷄ݓʘ̆)つY−−＝≡☀︎
Jiangnan: !!!
"Hey hey hey! How did you just..."
But the spirit bullet, formed from all of Wang Ba's spirit power, had already shot out, tracing a graceful arc through the air!
Wang Ba was dumbfounded: "What's wrong? Is there some trick to it?"
Jiangnan's expression didn't change, and he raised his hand, creating six Spatial Barriers to protect their group.
"Nothing. It's too late now. What's coming will come."
The spirit bullet looped through the air, not heading for the Platinum tank at all, but flying straight toward Ling Feng!
It moved at a terrifying speed!
Ling Feng: ???
"Boom!"
The spirit bullet struck Ling Feng's crotch perfectly, causing a violent explosion!
Ling Feng's eyes bulged, and he let out a piercing howl that echoed over the entire Nova Fortress!
The whole building shattered, and the terrifying force sent Ling Feng spinning through the air, crashing headfirst into the ground!
○|￣|_ He lay there like that, the antenna on his head wilted, shivering in cold sweat!
(ꐦಠ皿ಠ): "Wang Ba, you bastard! You did that on purpose! I'll f*cking..."
"You wait! I'm going to smash your head off!"
Wang Ba swallowed hard, cold sweat dripping down his forehead!
Hit... hitting his own teammate?
"What... what happened? How did it hit Brother Feng?"
Jiangnan: "(￢ก￢) Ahem～ You used auto-targeting mode. In auto-targeting mode, it automatically strikes the highest-level organism within three thousand meters!"
Ling Feng was at Diamond peak, so naturally he was hit!
Wang Ba covered his face: "Why... why didn't you say so earlier?"
Can Brother Feng even survive that hit?
Jiangnan: ╮(•́ω•̀)╮ You didn't ask!
But this little slingshot was truly insane. It hit Ling Feng even when he was invisible!
Just then, the commotion attracted the attention of a large number of American explorers!
But when they looked over, they were confused—they didn't see anyone!
Meanwhile, Kaiqi, clutching his crotch, rushed back from outside the city, his face burning with rage!
He searched everywhere for the enemy. Someone was definitely causing trouble!
At that moment, the entire Nova Fortress shook violently. The ground began to shift! Earth and stone flowed!
Thick stone walls slowly rose up, blocking the giant centipede's path!
This slowed down the centipede's mad dash!
The entire fortress's terrain began to change!
Jiangnan looked up at the sky and sneered: "Someone from outside is interfering, huh?"
Clearly, the American Dirk Laboratory had detected the changes in Nova Fortress through the Heavenly Eye System!
They were using the core to alter the terrain to stop the centipede's rampage and help Kaiqi resolve the crisis!
Jiangnan shrugged, used Void Chains to wrap around everyone, and Teleported back underground!
This was just an appetizer anyway, just to give Kaiqi a bit of trouble!
The real show was yet to come!
You won't let me go down? Hmph!
Soon, I'll make you beg me to go down!
