Chapter 927: Desperate Situation 1

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Outside the hospital, within the surroundings of the dark grey blocks, the pedestrians and residents had been evacuated urgently. Only empty neighborhoods and houses remained while the crowds that had been dispersed were held back outside the separation lines. They looked on at the private hospital in the center from afar.

On top of a building, several people who were in charged stood on the edge of the roof, issuing commands while on-site.

One of them wore a white suit and looked as if he had just walked out of a ball. His platinum hair was combed out with a layer of hairspray. When the afternoon sun cascaded on it, layers of light were reflected faintly.

“Logan, how are the arrangents for each aspect?” asked the man quietly.

“Almost done. All of the powerhouses that I arranged have been hidden properly. The Remington household’s forces have been dispersed throughout a range and area of a hundred ters. The three main units of the Third chanical Army have complied fully with the first garrison to monitor and control the three aspects of the ground, underground, and sky. A single mosquito would not even be able to escape from here!”

A thin man stood on the side, and reported quietly.

“I just don’t understand why a single heavily wounded and disabled individual would require so much combat manpower? Can’t it be done just by entering and seizing him directly?”

“What you don’t understand is that this isn’t just a regular arresting activity but more of an exhibition of power. Moreover, we still don’t know the exact moves that he’s hiding up his sleeves,” the man shook his head slightly. He reached his hand out and tidied his four strange eyebrows before a smile appeared on his face.

“Anyway, there’s nothing wrong with being slightly more careful.”

He looked down. He saw a large army of black Miniature chs, who wore black badges and were dressed in the Remington forces’ military outfits, started to approach the hospital building gradually. They carried large black shields that were big enough to cover their whole bodies while marching forward slowly from all directions.

In the sky, ch Soldiers from the Third chanical Army flew over gradually as well. Although most of them were Level One ch Soldiers, since this was a small town, it was already quite impressive that they were able to assemble more than ten of these forms of manpower during these critical monts.

The people from the Intelligence Bureau had installed monitors and protective screen asures around the area. They had even installed simple laser interception networks in certain important areas.

Fila had previously held the post of the Commander in Chief of the Third chanical Army. Hence, he was able to assemble and loan the strengths of his subordinates currently. He had held the post of the director of the Intelligence Bureau as well. Once again, it was easy for him to obtain his own forces. However, he still refused to let his guard down because he could still rember the ambush that he had encountered in the radiation belt. A pressing feeling continued to stir in his mind because he was uncertain whether Nonosiva had actually planned that raid. After all, an average young person would never be able to grasp mutated skills like that. Yet regardless of whoever was controlling these things, he had no choice but to get rid of this lurking danger as soon as possible because of the arrangent of the crisis that would soon follow.

Although this was seemingly just another encirclent, it was also an opportunity for him to display his own strength.

With a wave of his hand, Fila had finally given the final order to attack.

He had spread an inescapable net, and had laid it out completely.

His style was to stand on the spot while he slaughtering others!

**********************

Bang!

The door to the hospital room was pushed open at once. Following that, a black Miniature ch soldier charged inside and aid the barrel of its gun at a patient’s bed precisely.

“No one?!”

“Search!”

A ch Soldier moved forward and pressed the bedding.

“The temperature is 28.5 degrees and there is still residual heat. According to the calculations of the temperature and the air conditioning, he should have left two minutes ago.”

“Open the residual body heat tracks and trace them.”

There was a brief clapping noise before the entire room imdiately beca completely bright red under the gaze of the ch Soldier.

“Nothing! What’s the matter?!” There were no traces of residual body heat inside the room at all.

Suddenly, a bright red shadow flew downwards into its line of sight, and harshly fell on top of the ch Soldier’s head.

There was a crisp cracking noise before the person’s neck was twisted and broken, killing him in the process.

The red shadow turned a few more tis. When the other people were unable to pull the trigger in ti, it disappeared monts later within the hospital room.

Bang bang bang bang!

Loud gunshots could be heard inside the hospital room while bullets flew about.

“Jamie!! Oh sh*t!”

Pfoo!

Another red shadow pounced over suddenly, and landed behind the other ch Soldiers. Both of its arms shot forward. Then like two venomous snakes, it violently bit the back of both their heads.

There were two simultaneous cracking noises but it seed as though only one was heard.

The armor plates on the back of both of these ch Soldiers’ heads were pierced through by his bare-hand. He violently stabbed both of his fingers inside them, leaving two bloody holes.

Garen resembled a large bat that soared upwards after biting these two people to death. He then proceeded to hang upside down on the ceiling once again. Strange enough, the back of his body was able to absorb itself onto the ceiling as if he was a wall painting that was hung upside down.

The last remaining ch Soldier below staggered about in an attempt to escape the room. However, it only managed to run a few steps away before feeling that the bottom of its feet had stiffened.

He lowered his head to look. Only then did it realize that a thick layer of ice had frozen the legs of his ch without him even noticing. Moreover, this icy layer was spreading at a speed that even the naked eye could see.

He suddenly felt as though he could sense sothing. He raised his head imdiately, and looked at the ceiling but it could only see a red shadow rushing towards his face at the final mont.

Garen used one hand to press onto the ch Soldier while a gush of frighteningly intense cold air was suddenly released from his entire body.

Ever since his Living Secret Technique had broken through Level Seven, both his Cold Radiation and Cold Chaos abilities were upgraded. He could release extrely cold temperatures of -20 degrees unexpectedly, allowing him to quickly freeze and delay the movents of the ch Soldiers when his enemies were helplessly panicking. At the sa ti, although these individuals were initially well-trained combat soldiers, when they were affected by the Cold Chaos’ ntal confusion effects, they would beco easily spooked and anxious during the state of disorder. This allowed Garen’s surprise attacks to succeed smoothly.

He floated down, and landed gently while his complexion remained pale.

Slaughtering nurous ch Soldiers in a row by force was not an impressive feat. The troubleso part was having to pierce through the Miniature chs that were worn by the ch Soldiers. Although these things did not have particularly strong defenses, their fingers would suffer great harm if they penetrated it with bare hands.

Garen raised his hand. Solid icicles had frozen both of his forefingers due to the frigid air. Coupled with the quick movents of his hands, he was able to penetrate the ch Soldier’s armor. However, his palm and wrist had suffered slight fractures because of this.

“There are gunshot noises here! Hurry, hurry!!” Loud yells echoed outside.

Tch!!

The left wall was suddenly penetrated by a ray of red light that was shooting towards Garen’s face. It was an armor-piercing projectile! Like a red line, the miniature armor-piercing projectile directly pierced through multiple layers of walls.

Garen sorsaulted, and narrowly dodged the shooting armor-piercing projectile. However, he still felt a violent, burning pain on his face at the sa ti. A cold sensation that was tinged with burning heat quickly spread from the wound on his face and onto the other parts of his body.

“It’s poisonous!”

He added one Potential Point to his Vitality imdiately. His Potential diffused quickly to rapidly suppress the poison from spreading.

Garen dragged the corpse of a random ch Soldier and violently smashed it against the wall on the opposite side. Next, he rushed out of the hospital room door.

Just as he had exited the room, two shrouds of fiery red fluttering light shot over from the right side of the stairs.

Boom boom!

When both of the intense flas exploded, Garen’s body was sent flying brutally as he was unable to react in ti.

Bang bang bang bang!

The Big chs outside had started raking the whole area with machine gunfire. Heavy-duty machine guns swept across the hospital in a frenzy.

Bullet holes pierced through the walls. On the white walls, the bullet holes resembled black snakes that were rushing towards Garen.

Garen rolled over again and discovered that his entire body was charred black from the explosions. He had just crawled up before he saw two strings of bullets inching towards him. The corridor of the entire hospital was shot up, and covered in a thousand holes while rays of sunlight cascaded in through the nurous bullet holes on the other side.

The ground of the entire building made violent crashing noises as if it was roaring.

His ears were filled with buzzing noises. Other than the noise of the bombs and machine guns, he could not hear anything else.

Garen stared fixedly at the black chain of bullets that was quickly moving towards him from the bullet holes. He dodged, and crouched down to evade the assault of the bullet chain before a series of noises that ca from running ch Soldiers suddenly echoed from the stairs behind him.

Bang!

He imdiately moved, just before a ray of red light pierced through the floorboards below. It ford a pillar of fire that was more than a ter tall when it burst through.

The whole hospital started to burn.

“Arson?” Garen’s face remained indifferent because he was not afraid of death. He could not even clearly rember the number of tis he had stared death in the face. Nonetheless, it was not his style to simply die here.

Miniature chs were not afraid of the scorching flas at all. It was easy for them to endure high temperatures of a few hundred degrees. However, the sa did not apply to Garen because he had a flesh body. It was clear that the other party intended to burn him alive here.

Columns of bursting fla constantly exploded from the ground. Garen continuously dodged the fla pillars on the floorboards. With a few sorsaults backward, he bounced towards the stairs at the back. He leaped gently, like a fish that had just jumped out of the surface of the water, before coincidentally landing on the head of a ch Soldier that had just charged through the stairs. He sandwiched it with both his legs before twisting and breaking his enemy’s neck with a ‘crack’. He pressed downwards with the tip of his toes. Then, he swiftly pulled the trigger on the machine gun in the ch Soldier’s hand. He supported himself against it and jumped before evading the shooting sweep that followed.

Boom boom boom boom!

After nurous consecutive gunshots, all of the bullets landed accurately on the head of the ch Soldier upstairs while Garen was sorsaulting.

It only took a single encounter for all five of the ch Soldiers upstairs to be killed.

Without his Willpower, it was impossible for him to confront the enemy directly. He could only rely on his speedy movents to dodge the potential Willpower assaults. Currently, the only thing that he could depend on was his powerful battle skills, and great physical fitness.

While the rest had yet to react, Garen operated a ch Soldier and ran towards the part of the building with the thickest bearing walls.

While running, he quickly stripped the ch Soldier of the Miniature ch that it was wearing and placed it on himself.

These Miniature chs were different from the ones in the radiation belt. They were considered as boosting-type chs that could be worn separately. They could increase the defense and power of the wearer. They were even fitted externally with certain communication devices that were used for detecting and probing.

Just as he had put it on, Garen could instantly hear noises coming out from the pager inside the ch continuously.

“Wolf Five, Wolf Five, move forward to the second floor to assist imdiately. Use the vertex bomb to destroy the second floor. Try your best to catch him while he’s still alive, if possible!”

Garen did not reply verbally but pretended to pant hoarsely and respond ambiguously instead.

He glanced at the blinking red dot on the board. Those were the numbers, and locations of all the ch Soldiers.

“Catch alive? Hehe.” A cold expression appeared on Garen’s face. He knew that it was very likely that the other party was planning to seize him to take the Rainbow Stone techniques that he had obtained.

If they had gotten rid of him on the spot in the beginning, perhaps he would not have an escape route now. However, the order to catch him while he was still alive gave him a lot of empty space to move around.

He moved his hand backward and removed the fixed-point hand grenade from the waist of the Miniature ch and pressed it against the right wall.

Garen ran forward quickly.

Boom!

Stretches of fiery red flas shot out and exploded behind him. After dodging the flas and explosions, he returned to his previous location at the hole-ridden area. He exchanged the machine gun in his hand for an armor-piercing projectile model. He aid it precisely at the wall on the other side of the hole-ridden room and shot it directly.

Red lines were shot out.

Boom!

The armor-piercing projectile penetrated the wall and accurately hit the body of another ch Soldier that had just passed by. Perhaps it had struck the ammunition bundle on its body because suddenly, a large explosion occurred. It sent intense tremors throughout the entire second floor.

“Damn!”

The sound of a cursing man echoed from the pager.

“He’s just an injured cripple!”

The corners of Garen’s mouth curled into a cold-blooded arc.

He rolled across the floor and moved his hand backward to remove another armor-piercing projectile. He aid it accurately so that it would pierce through the wall before shooting it outside the hospital.

In the sky outside, the Cockpit of a Big ch was penetrated by that shot. It fell down crookedly, making a crashing noise before turning completely silent.

Garen’s speedy movents allowed him to enter the hospital and get rid of more than ten ch Soldiers by using armor-piercing projectiles. Occasionally, Garen would replenish the armor-piercing projectiles that he had used. He managed to shoot down five or six Big chs outside.

On top of the command building outside.

The expression on Fila’s face remained unchanged as he continued to wave his hand.

“Everyone, withdraw! Abandon the mission to seize him alive, just demolish everything!”

“But...” Beside him, Logan’s eyebrows were knitted together tightly as he attempted to open his mouth to speak.

“Do you still not understand? Within ten minutes, the thirty Miniature ch Soldiers that entered were completely slaughtered. Five of the Big chs outside were killed as well! That Nonosiva is truly not the pushover that we had imagined,” huffed Fila coldly.

“Send the Elite Team forward,” Logan gritted his teeth and said. “That’s a yearly profit of hundreds of millions!” The chanical Army that he was part of spent three hundred million a year. If they were able to seize this technique, its effects on the interest of the chanical Army would make anyone emotionally affected.

Fila’s mind turned cold. Despite just being relieved of office recently, so of his initial subordinates had stopped listening to his orders already.

“Do as you please. But if sothing happens, don’t bla for not reminding you! Besides that, my n won’t leave anyone alive.”

“Commander, I don’t have a choice. Our military allowances have been cut each year. Although this sum of money may be insignificant to you, it’s still a large sum of inco for us!” said Logan softly. If it was not for the money, Fila’s instructions would not be able to truly stop him either as he was currently the Commander in Chief.

Fila sighed coldly. He glanced at this man who was previously his groveling subordinate who had now matured into an individual who had dared to look him in the eye.

He turned around because he could not be bothered with looking at him anymore. He stuffed his hand into the pocket of his shirt imdiately and walked towards the exit downstairs.

“I hope that you won’t ss it up.” Once they were in this state, there were no survival routes left for a minor force like Nonosiva. He did not have to watch anymore.

“Don’t worry!” A smile appeared on Logan’s face. He rearranged the microphone at the corner of his mouth. “Powerhouse Team, forward! He’s just a lowly piece of garbage with Level One Willpower. If you’re unable to seize him despite that, all of you can just die!”
