Chapter 309 Shadow
Although the seraphs will be killed in seconds if they hit Li Yi's hands, their combat power is the real pinnacle of the sanctuary.
It can be said that in the human world where the gods are not born, the seraphim is the ceiling of combat power.
Therefore, they were caught off guard by the unknown Seraph who suddenly appeared in the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters building.
Suddenly, the alarm bells blared in the building.
Having detected the strength of the invaders, "Fantasy Township" decisively issued evacuation instructions to the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the building.
After all, the headquarters building is mostly occupied by civilian personnel. If they are not evacuated, will they be allowed to rush in and die?
At the same time, "Gensokyo" also immediately activated the defensive array of SHIELD headquarters, directly maxed out its computing power, and mobilized the combat power of the headquarters building to prepare for the battle.
This is also the reason why he directly disconnected from the "video" with Li Yi!
The house has been stolen, who is in the mood to chat?
Of course, the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters can handle a half-seraph at the peak of the Sanctuary, otherwise how could they have been entangled with the Holy Court for so many years?
But it takes time to react, and for Sanctuary, this little reaction time is enough to do too many things!
What's more, now it's almost being "protruded"?
……
the other side……
When the beam of light erupted, Li Yi and "Qiwuhai" were located on the edge of the floating continent, dozens of kilometers away from the incident.
"Qiwuhai" reacted almost instantly, and disappeared in place with a teleportation.
"Hey……"
Because the distance is a bit far, Li Yi's "Piracy Teleportation" cannot be reached directly (it's not that it's too far to teleport, but it's too far to locate on the system map).
He was about to ask "Qiwuhai" to take him with him, but when he turned around, who else was there?
Of course, it is a normal reaction for "Shichibukai" not to take Li Yi, after all, his current apparent level is only gold level.
Under normal circumstances, the battle at the peak of the sanctuary is not something that the golden rank can get involved in, and even watching the battle is not good.
"Qiwuhai" naturally would not have the idea of bringing Li Yi.
In addition, Osiris is also the home ground of the goblins. How can it be possible for Li Yi, the "king", to rush to the front line to fight with just a seraph?
Moreover, last time the Holy Court took advantage of the fact that the "Qiwuhai" went out without all the equipment and attacked him. If Li Yi hadn't happened to be there, something big might have happened.
This time in his own territory, can "Qiwuhai" still vent his anger?
Fortunately, "Osiris" was quite considerate and activated the defensive array of the floating continent to ensure that the seraph would never come back.
At the same time, he did not forget to expand the light screen in front of Li Yi and live broadcast the latest situation to him.
Obviously, "Osiris" also thinks that Li Yi, the "king", is more suitable to watch the show here.
……
Having said so much, in fact, the real time has not passed for a long time.
From the explosion of the beam of light, the appearance of the seraphim, to the return to "Gensokyo" to fight, and the teleportation of "Shichibukai" to support, everything did not exceed a second.
An ordinary person might not have reacted yet.
Because he knew that by the time he got there, all the vegetables, including the day lily, would be cold, so Li Yi was not in a hurry and simply watched the "live broadcast" where he was.
……
His eyes returned to the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters building.
After the seraph broke through the top floor of the building, it didn't take advantage of the trend to take off into the air, but turned around and swooped down, rushing back into the building.
"Fantasy Township" mobilized the layers of barriers formed by the defensive circle, completely powerless in the face of the peak combat power of the sanctuary, and was directly smashed into scattered ripples.
In an instant, the figure of the seraphim had rushed into the building and disappeared within the light curtain.
The perspective given by "Osiris" is a bit like a drone aerial photography, and the vision is overlooked from a high altitude.
The situation inside the building is naturally invisible.
"I'll go and watch the show without even giving you anything!"
Li Yi couldn't help complaining.
Fortunately, at this time, a new "character" appeared on the light curtain again:
A super-large constructed demon doll that is about the same size as a seraph and more than ten meters high!
Looking at the bright metal armor on the puppet, and the overall mighty and domineering shape, a term popped up in Li Yi's mind for the first time...
Humanoid combat weapon, Gundam!
Obviously, this is the "Shichibukai" arriving.
With the blessing of the Gundam Armor, his combat power has also soared to the peak of the sanctuary at this time!
However, the "Qiwuhai" who rushed to the scene was also a little blinded by the situation that the seraphim had entered the building again.
With Gundam's size, if he were to get into the building and fight the Seraphim, the building would collapse immediately!
However, the entanglement of "Qiwuhai" did not last long, and without knowing what Seraphim had done, the SHIELD headquarters building suddenly began to collapse inward amidst a burst of shaking.
At the same time, the figure of the seraph rose from the dusty sky and returned to the display range of the light curtain.
……
"The energy response of Gensokyo disappeared."
The voice of "Osiris" sounded at the right time, giving Li Yi an explanation.
In this short moment, the central "intelligent brain" of SHIELD headquarters, the sacred-level plant-type evolved beast "Gensokyo", was actually killed! ?
At this time, the sharp-eyed Li Yi discovered that the aura on Seraphim's body was a bit chaotic, and it didn't fly by itself, it was blown out by someone.
It seems that Seraphim did not pay a price for forcibly killing "Gensokyo" in such a short period of time.
However, although the Seraphim was knocked out, it did not suffer much damage.
The three pairs of wings on the back opened at the same time, and it hovered steadily in the air.
At the same time, two figures slowly rose from the collapsed building below.
Compared with the behemoths such as Angel and Gundam, this new figure seemed a bit small.
But the turbulent aura on their bodies clearly showed their sanctuary-level combat power.
And these two figures are not the chief and deputy directors of S.H.I.E.L.D.—Su Peng and Xiao Yu. Who else could they be?
Among them, Su Peng's aura is already the peak of the sanctuary.
Needless to say, she was the one who repelled the Seraphim just now.
……
High above the sky, the duo of Seraphim, "Qiwuhai (Gundam Form)" and Su Peng are three-legged.
However, S.H.I.E.L.D. and the goblins are allies, and the tripartite confrontation will naturally not lead to a stalemate.
The so-called enemy is extremely jealous when they meet, "Qiwuhai" will not be polite to the reappearing Seraphim, and immediately controls the Gundam, raising his hand to fire an energy cannon.
Seeing the "Qiwu Hai" launching an attack, Su Peng did not hesitate and immediately opened his territory, and a "imprisonment" hit the Seraphim.
At the same time, with a wave of his hand, an arcane impact was also sent to the seraph.
(Su Peng’s profession is arcane mage.)
Xiao Yu, who was following Su Peng, was of course not here to watch the show. As an auxiliary professional priest (similar to a priest), she filled up the buffs for Su Peng and the "Qiwu Hai" almost instantly, and at the same time, she had a lot of buffs. Debuff is also added to Seraphim!
……
Two-on-one with support here, Seraphim is naturally difficult to parry.
Within two rounds, he was beaten all over and bruised, and even one of his wings was broken.
But the peak of the sanctuary is the peak of the sanctuary. It is easy to defeat it, but it is still a bit difficult to kill it.
Of course, because "Osiris" had activated the defensive circle of the floating continent in advance, it couldn't run away, and its defeat was only a matter of time.
However, at this moment, Li Yi, who was watching the battle live remotely, had alarm bells ringing in his heart...
It was his premonition of crisis!
"No, it's not that simple!"
He only heard Li Yi whisper a word, but the man had disappeared in place.
The next moment, his figure appeared above the floating continent.
Teleportation requires clear positioning, so he cannot teleport directly to the battlefield.
But flashing only requires vision.
He was able to lock the position of the seraphim with his eyesight when he was in mid-air and without any cover.
……
(To popularize science, the theoretical value of normal people's distance vision is infinite.
Because no matter how far the object is from you, it should be able to form a black dot on the retina.
Of course, in actual operation, this is not something that normal people can do. )
……
"Whoosh!"
At Li Yi's current level, there is naturally no pressure on an ultra-long-range "flash" of tens of kilometers.
So without hesitation, he "flashed" directly into the battlefield where several people besieged Seraphim.
At the same time, "Funeral" is activated!
Several people who were fighting fiercely were instantly restrained by the power of space solidification.
Li Yi didn't waste any time. He unsheathed the Yan Demon Sword and directly killed the Seraphim with a "Breaking Wind Slash (False)".
He conveniently added a "gathering technique" to eliminate the possibility of its resurrection.
"boom!"
The Seraph, whose head was missing, fell to the ground with a loud noise.
A dark golden light flashed on Li Yi's body, and he was promoted to level 23.
At this time, Su Peng and others also regained their freedom.
"boss!?"
Different from the relative calmness of the "Shichibukai", Su Peng and the others immediately exclaimed when they saw that the person coming was Li Yi.
Before Gemini and Christine Taylor just arrived at the SHIELD headquarters, something happened, so Su Peng and the others didn't even know that Li Yi had arrived.
At this moment, I was surprised and delighted to see him appearing like a "god descending from the earth"!
Although I already knew that Li Yi "reappeared in the world", there will be a reunion sooner or later, but after all, they have not seen each other for a thousand years. The two of Su Peng still have mixed feelings for a while, and they don't know where to start.
However, now is not the time to reminisce.
……
"I'll talk about other things later, the holy court sacrificed a cutting-edge combat power like a seraph, it's impossible to behead Gensokyo!
They will definitely have some actions to follow up, we must hurry up and be vigilant! "
Li Yi said to the three with a solemn face.
He has communicated with Gemini just now (he and the pet can have the same mind at close range), but she doesn't know much information.
It was only known that she had just walked into the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters with Christine Taylor, and was about to communicate with "Gensokyo" to find other members of the chamber of commerce.
("Fantasy Township" is the central "intelligent brain" at SHIELD headquarters, which Zhang Leli said before. And "Fantasy Township", she was no stranger at all back then.)
Unexpectedly, just as Kristen Taylor saw the projection of "Fantasy Township", he suddenly exploded.
It's such an explosion...
The pillar of light that suddenly appeared before burst out from Christine Taylor's torn body.
Obviously, Li Yi was right, and there was really no problem with Kristen Taylor.
The problem is the seraph hiding inside her!
As for how the ten-meter-tall seraph was hidden inside the body of little Christine Taylor, and how it was hidden from the detection of the "detection technique"...
"Mud horse, it must be that damned thing again, the power of the Lord!"
……
"Well, boss, if a Seraph loses Gensokyo, the Holy Court will not lose, it will be ours."
Su Peng looked at Li Yi and said hesitantly.
S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Holy Court have fought against each other for many years, and they still know each other a little bit.
Although the operation of the holy court was unexpectedly smooth this time, they were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses.
But "Fantasy Township" is definitely a strategic target targeted by the Holy Court, and it is more than enough as the core target of this operation.
This goal has been achieved, unless the Holy Court prepares to wipe out the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters in one wave, other actions will be a bit redundant.
What follow-up action, there should be no normal situation...
This is similar to robbery. Once you get the money, do you want to grab it again just to grab a lollipop?
At this time, Xiao Yu also quietly explained the status of "Fantasy Township" in SHIELD.
As the central "intelligent brain", "Fantasy Township" stores all SHIELD's information and data, and is also the command center for SHIELD's daily activities.
When "Gensokyo" was killed, S.H.I.E.L.D. would be paralyzed, but all actions would be greatly affected.
Just rearranging the data is a huge project.
This is because people in this world are used to the existence of no computer, so the data has paper backups.
Otherwise, if "Fantasy Township" is destroyed, it will be the same as the Internet giant's data center being leveled by missiles. The damage will be absolutely devastating.
Su Peng and Xiao Yu sang together, implying that S.H.I.E.L.D. has damaged "Fantasy Township" this time, and killed and injured many members. The Holy Court's attack has been ruthless enough, and there should be no follow-up.
After all, if the Holy Court does not use this suicidal sneak attack and continues to target them, it will have to face Osiris, the city in the sky.
And if Osiris is easy to deal with, the Holy Court should have done it long ago!
……
What Su Peng said is quite reasonable, and they should really know the Holy Court better than Li Yi.
but……
Li Yi believes that he has never missed a premonition of crisis!
He didn't know what the Holy Court's previous work style was like, but recently he had repeatedly undermined the Holy Court's actions, and he had been able to completely kill angels...
Who knows if the holy court will become angry and jump over the wall in a hurry?
Moreover, Li Yi always felt that the driving force behind Kristen Taylor's accident seemed to know him well.
It was as if he could predict that he would definitely agree to take her to Osiris!
You know, it is not an exaggeration to say that the relationship between Li Yi and the Holy Court is immortal. How can ordinary people be sure that he will not kill Christine Taylor, the alternate saint?
No matter how powerful the Seraph is, how much harm can it cause if it can't sneak into the S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters building and reappear for a sneak attack?
All of this is scary to think about...
So, how could killing a "Gensokyo" be the opponent's ultimate goal?
