Chapter 699 [117] Young Master Main C
The corridor on the third floor of the Eco Tower.
A high-frequency whistling sound, loud enough to shatter eardrums, suddenly appeared, and all the lights on the ceiling shattered.
Using the concept of steel armor breathing technique for defense, Qin Jiandan preserved his hearing.
In the sudden darkness, Qin Jiandan rolled to the side using his combat instincts. A beam of blazing white light grazed his shoulder, leaving a scorch mark on the surface of his Steel Armor Breathing Technique.
There's a sniper! And it's armor-piercing rounds!
Qin Jiandan activated his time vision, making the T-unit members hiding in the darkness nowhere to hide.
There's no mistake, the Time Vision can see the other person's time tree. The other person's time tree looks strangely bizarre, as if the two people's time trees have been forcibly stitched together.
In past battles, the Night Dragons have destroyed the T-units' chest armor, revealing the exposed "second brain."
The T-Force can possess an additional superpower by relying on a second brain, and having "Psionic Barrier" and "Purifying Flame of Sin" is standard for them.
Qin Jiandan immediately turned around and fired three glass marbles in the direction from which the armor-piercing bullets were coming.
They did not seek to harm the enemy, but only to scout ahead.
The glass marble sparked as it struck the white armor. Qin Jiandan made out the number on the opponent's breastplate—T-012.
In another direction, T-011 leaped out of the subspace window, slamming its fists into the ground. The shockwave spread along the metal floor, causing internal pipes to burst. The two guards behind Qin Jiandan were blasted into the wall, their ears already bleeding, with only a little hearing remaining.
"Leave here and meet up with Lao Zhao!" Qin Jiandan shouted the order without turning her head. "Hold the entrance to the Central Hospital for him! Tell Lao Zhao that I will guard the Mingguang Sky Canopy Generator by myself!"
This corridor is the core area of the third floor, close to the center of the tower. The control center for the Bright Sky Canopy is not far away. The vertical farm's artificial sunlight system and automatic irrigation system are also located on the third floor.
The company's main objective in this attack is simply to destroy the Bright Sky Curtain and the Vertical Farm. This would force the people of East City to surrender without a fight, overwhelmed by the black fog and starvation.
The two guards helped each other to their feet. T-011 raised his hands, and the Razor Chains shot out at high speed, aiming at the hearts of the two men respectively.
"You want to kill someone right in front of me?"
Qin Jiandan's actions were faster than his words. He activated the Steel Armor Breathing Technique and grasped the two razor chains, sharp enough to cut through iron like mud, from the side. With a surge of internal energy, he pulled hard, causing T-011's heavy body to stagger forward. Taking advantage of the moment, Qin Jiandan conjured a Xuanbing Battle Blade; a flash of cold light, and the razor chains snapped at their base.
In this battle, the T-011 could no longer use its chains to injure people.
Two guards seized the opportunity to escape, and plasma beams began to condense in the cross-shaped observation window of the T-011. Simultaneously, the T-012 aimed at Qin Jiandan's third vertebra and fired a second armor-piercing anti-reverse phase projectile!
As if anticipated, Qin Jiandan soared into the air. He not only dodged the armor-piercing bullet from behind, but also the purifying flames of sin from the front.
The Sinful Blaze and the Reverse Life Armor-Piercing Bullet collided, each destroying part of its power, but the remaining force still struck their teammates.
Both T-012 and T-011 emitted a shocked electronic sound simultaneously. Qin Jiandan, who was in mid-air, could not hear what they were saying.
The two T-unit members simultaneously deployed a "psychic barrier" to defend against the remaining attacks from their teammates. Although they were not injured, they were clearly exhausted, each taking a step back and almost losing their balance.
Qin Jiandan, however, had already gathered his inner strength in mid-air, focusing it at the tips of his fingers. As his feet landed, he unleashed the Nine Heavens Thunderfire in both directions!
Most supernatural abilities have a cooldown period, and the psionic barrier that was just used cannot be deployed again. The T-011's cross-shaped observation port was hit head-on, and its head, which was being burned by lightning and fire, emitted a mechanical scream.
T-012 reacted quickly, throwing his sniper rifle to parry and simultaneously using the Sinful Flame to counterattack. The sniper rifle turned to ashes, and T-012 lost the ability to use the Reverse-Life Armor-Piercing Rounds.
The T-011, though hit head-on, did not fall. A sickening chainsaw-like sound came from the cross-shaped observation port, and some biological waste was discharged from the bottom of the white armor, falling onto the shattered metal ground.
Judging from the occasional flashes of electricity on the ceiling, Qin Jiandan saw clearly. It was a head, only the upper half of it, which had been entangled by the undying spiritual fire and turned to ashes in a moment.
The T-011's armor system severed its own head, yet it was still able to move. This means it rebuilt its command organs using its second brain.
"The company's technology is disgusting!"
Qin Jiandan gave T-011 no time to breathe, raised his left hand, and fired an explosive red ball at the opponent.
With a deafening roar, flames and smoke billowed forth. T-011's field of vision was limited. However, Qin Jiandan could use his time vision to pinpoint the enemy's location.
"The fact that you're not using the 'Psionic Barrier' to block it means that the 'Psionic Barrier' is being managed by your brain, which was just destroyed!"
A massive, ice-cold blade, tens of meters long, pierced through the flames and smoke, slashing towards T-011 at the waist. T-011 tried to block with its hands, unaware that Qin Jiandan had already channeled a massive amount of internal energy into the ice blade, increasing its cutting power several times over.
"Crack!"
The thick, sturdy white armor was completely severed by the Ice Blade. The upper and lower halves of the T-011 collapsed to the ground. Blood, oil, and tubing flowed from the cuts. The Ice Blade itself was also broken in two by the recoil.
Despite being cut in half, T-011 was still alive. Energy was gathering in his cross-shaped observation window, seemingly preparing to unleash a final, purifying flame.
Qin Jiandan didn't give him that chance. Two clusters of undying spiritual fire were thrown at the two pieces of T-011's body. The spiritual fire began to invade from the broken ends, and before the Purifying Flame of Sin could be launched, it completely burned his flesh and blood to ashes.
T-011 was completely dead. He didn't survive more than 5 minutes in front of Qin Jiandan.
The T-012 activated its shoulder-mounted cannons, but instead of aiming at Qin Jiandan, it aimed at the metal door of the Mingguang Sky Screen control center. Large shell casings landed, and after the dust settled, only a few dents remained on the metal door—the consensus among Qin Jiandan, Lao Zhao, and the Zhang brothers to use the highest specifications to construct the core facilities had indeed come in handy.
"Now it's your turn!"
Qin Jiandan lunged forward, a sinister smile playing on his lips. The T-Force members, who struck fear into the hearts of others, were like lambs to the slaughter before Qin Jiandan.
The alarm bracelet on his left arm suddenly vibrated, and Qin Jiandan realized that another subspace had been created nearby.
Suddenly, Qin Jiandan's feet left the ground, as if he had entered a space capsule. He felt weightless and his body moved backward rapidly.
Kazama's voice came through the alarm bracelet communicator:
"Young Master, I'm observing through the monitor. This is the 'Gravity Storm' ability, which generates a spherical gravity anomaly zone with a radius of 8 meters centered on the caster."
"Also, you did a great job destroying the T-011 just now. Linlin and I are cheering for you."
Qin Jiandan grinned, ignoring the sinful flames condensed in the cross-shaped observation window of T-012. He quickly turned around in mid-air, his palms facing each other in a lotus shape, and used the 'Clothing-Exploding Whirlwind' technique he learned from his senior brother!
Pushed by the wind, Qin Jiandan's body moved backward rapidly, flying just over T-012's head and dodging his Sinful Purifying Flame. After passing the 8-meter effective range of the Gravity Storm ability, Qin Jiandan landed on his feet, and a Xuanbing spear had already formed in his hand.
The spear thrust out suddenly, and under the light of the Blazing Flame of Sin, it pierced the joint gap of T-012 with perfect accuracy.
T-012 was not seriously injured. Just as he was about to turn around, he discovered that Qin Jiandan's Xuanbing Spear was hollow, and Qin Jiandan had already poured the Undying Spiritual Fire into the hollow spear.
The undying flames seeped into T-012's flesh, leaving him no escape, and ignited from within. The immense pain caused him to let out a mechanical roar, even attempting to tear through his armor.
Qin Jiandan drew his Xuanbing spear and suddenly used Time Overwrite on him, reinforcing his idea of "tearing through the armor." As the armor cracked, T-012's second brain was exposed to the air. The spear thrust out again, piercing through the second brain and releasing spiritual fire.
"Zzzzzzzzz—"
Two fires began to consume flesh and blood from inside T-012. The sounds emanating from T-012 became increasingly inhuman. It struggled violently, until finally it was burned to a shell, leaving only its white armor as it collapsed to the ground.
"Brother is so amazing!" Linlin's voice came from the alarm bracelet.
Qin Jiandan dared not underestimate his opponent, because the last person to arrive at the third level via subspace, who used "gravitational storm" to launch a sneak attack...
By the light of the flames from the burning T-012, the number T-013 was engraved on the opponent's white breastplate. However, through temporal vision, three different time trees were seen twisted and grafted together.
This T-unit has three brains! That's why he can use a third superpower in addition to "Purifying Flame of Sin" and "Psionic Barrier"—Gravity Storm!
Of course, there's also the possibility that his first two abilities aren't "Purifying Flame of Sin" and "Psionic Barrier." Qin Jiandan can't be careless. The exact number of T-units involved in this attack is currently unknown. If he's defeated, the others will face an extremely difficult battle.
※※※
The Night Dragon Society headquarters, intelligence department, and medical clinic are the two main defensive centers.
Linlin, Kazama, Wangyou, and others stayed in the intelligence department to provide information support, while Huchi led a team to protect them on the perimeter.
Mu Yue, Doctor Li, and others stayed at the clinic, focusing on protecting the underground Amethyst Elixir research facility and Chairman Qin Qi's hibernation pod.
As a free agent, the comical Zhou Tiannao patrols headquarters and acts according to circumstances.
Chen Tom from District 4 sent a Furei combat team to reinforce headquarters' defenses. Zhu Shengzhi from Districts 5 and 6 claimed he wasn't a militant, and that just defending against a potential attack from the Nean Society was already a huge challenge…
A subspace alarm suddenly sounded. Catgirl Muyue gripped her guns tightly, concealing herself in the shadows of the clinic's reception room. Her prosthetic right eye quickly locked onto the source of the purplish-black particles.
"dad?"
Underneath the long trench coat was a white shirt and old police trousers. Although the comical ghost mask on his face covered his bulbous nose, his posture was still very familiar.
"You smell strongly of alcohol... You've been drinking again?"
Han Tiancheng awkwardly scratched his butt; he hadn't done this gesture in a long time since he became a comical ghost.
"Mu Yue, it's been a long time. Why are you asking me if I drink or not? I came here to protect you."
The cat ears on its head flapped rapidly, and the fine hairs at the ends were faintly visible.
"Dad, can you sense the fluctuations in the subspace? Will enemies be attacking soon?"
The answer was soon revealed. As the subspace alarm sounded again, several members of the T-unit, accompanied by dozens of mechanical ninjas, appeared one after another in the darkness of the central garden.
The T-unit's red cross-shaped observation windows and the mechanical ninjas' fluorescent green eyes rapidly searched for their victims. The intelligence department and the medical center were the first to be targeted.
With a show of style, Han Tiancheng drew a red-bladed crystal energy sword from his trench coat and stood in front of Mu Yue.
"I couldn't protect your mother back then, so let me protect you now!"
