Chapter 73 073 Confidence Five (Thank you to the little orange cat leader who loves to sleep)

Ding ding ding.!

A crashing sound like raindrops exploded on Li Chengyi's body.

 All the red needles seemed to be stuck on an extremely hard alloy plate, leaving only shallow pinholes on the surface of the flower scale clothing.

 After a while, the needle rain faded and stopped.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 simultaneously!

Li Chengyi pulled out the golden sword that fixed himself and stood up.

A little bit of tiny purple fragments scattered from his body. They were fragments of wisteria flower scales.

 “Have you reached your limit?”

 He lowered his head and noticed the clues. The flower-scaled clothes were slowly breaking into pieces, falling into countless pieces.

 The fragments were scattered in the air like windy sand, shattering into countless wisteria petals.

The petals fade and disappear before they completely fall to the ground, like an illusion.

At this moment, countless red needles above the head floated up again, condensed, and turned into a new needle rain, which was about to fall again.

This time the red light emitted by the red needle was far less powerful than before, and Li Chengyi didn't feel as dangerous as before. But similarly, he also lost his wisteria-scaled clothes.

 “It seems that this is the end of it.”

Li Chengyi's whole body shimmered with purple light, shrouded in countless rays of light, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a piece of gold.

 The golden light dissipated, and countless gladiolus petals flew apart, revealing his current attire.

The wisteria-scaled clothes have been transformed into a set of golden, majestic armor covered with sword thorns.

The head of the armor is like some kind of insect, and the face, except for the eyes, is a ferocious and sharp mouthpart.

A jagged golden sword wheel behind his back slowly rotated with his body movements.

In terms of thickness alone, gladioli flower scales appear to be heavier and larger than wisteria flowers.

 “Looking forward to the next match.”

Li Chengyi looked up at the rain of red needles in the air, turned around and rushed towards the wall. Under the dull gazes of the two siblings on the side, he crashed through the wall and disappeared into the dust.

 This time, from beginning to end, the rain of red needles from the sky did not fall again.

Soon, as Li Chengyi disappeared, the red needles in the sky flew back to their original places like a school of fish.

 Not long after, all the red needles flew back into the scabbards behind Ding Zaocheng.

He looked ugly and slowly pulled out the red knife with his backhand.

There was a soft hissing sound.

 The blade was unsheathed, revealing countless strange blade bodies composed of red thin needles.

At this time, at the very top of this strange knife body, part of the red needles were obviously dull in color and had signs of damage to the tip.

Ding Zaocheng’s face twitched.

“If the first blow failed to save him, there would be no chance for him later.” He looked to the side at Kong Sichen.

 “Why don’t you take action?”

"I don't have the cooperation of the clairvoyance. I'm at least 600 meters away and I don't have a weapon module. How can I fight?" Kong Sichen was speechless. His rank was far inferior to that of Ding Zaocheng. This guy clearly made a mistake and asked him in turn if he didn't take action. .

 If he had the ability to take action, would he wait until now?

“Besides, I am a fusion sect, not a pure-blood sect like you.” Kong Sichen said coldly.

"." Ding Zaocheng stopped talking. He misjudged the hardness of the opponent's armor, causing damage to his own flying instrument. Now the repair fee will be a lot of money again.

“It’s better to call in snipers.” Kong Sichen snorted coldly, turned around and left immediately.

Just now he had seen the purple-black transformed figure from the sky.

 The clues are already there, and the next step is to pursue them. There is no need for him to stay here to see how he behaves.

Ding Zaocheng stood there with a team of men and horses, looking at the broken needle on the red knife. He did not explain.

Others don’t know, but he knows very well that the red needle rain he just released, in fact, the lethality of the first hit of each fine needle is equivalent to the hit power of an ordinary sniper rifle bullet.

Dozens of red needles fall, with the same power as dozens of snipers targeting one person at the same time.

 Such power can be seen by looking at the ground at the scene.

 The stone floor was all shattered, creating a shallow pit at least ten centimeters deep.

The scream produced can even cause sonic tingling to people within a certain range of the surrounding area.

 But even with such lethality, the man could not be left behind.

 Tricky

Ding Zaocheng sighed, and his eyes darkened.

"The loss cannot be borne by me alone. The man has been injured by me and will not commit crimes again in a short time. Close the team! Report to the Federation!"

"yes!"

A group of police officers responded solemnly.

  Half an hour later.

 New Century Building, Hongjin Company.

Li Chengyi took off his floral clothes at an unmonitored blind spot in the city, and then took a taxi to the company. It only took half an hour in total.

 In this half hour, he really summarized his actions this time.

 The basic objectives have been achieved.

 First: Erase all traces of Xu Zhongsheng’s grasp. Well, all the people and machines were wiped out. In fact, he didn't really intend to kill anyone, but he was helpless because he said one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes. When he was in a state of emotion, he just shook his hand and killed him.

Of course, we have killed them all now, so there is no need to say anything.

 Second: He originally planned to test the power of the omnic master's flying instrument this time. From Ding Ning, an omnic master, he learned that the flying instruments are divided into many levels, and the lethality of different levels is also very different.

 The upper limit of Feiyi's lethality is determined by the energy module.

 Hence, different levels of flying instruments also have different energy haloes, which are generally divided into four categories: blue, red, white, and other colors.

The blue color is the ordinary Feiyi energy battery used. When this module is used alone, even if Feiyi is equipped with Hongtie, its lethality is at most about the same as that of an ordinary sniper rifle G357.

G357 is one of the standard military firearms that can be easily found on the Yiguo website.

Li Chengyi has already inquired about the power test and has a good idea of ​​it.

 The red energy module uses a battery-fuel physical hybrid propulsion system called the Glass module.

This kind of energy module is usually like a spring, compressed in advance and accumulating a relatively large amount of potential energy. After activating the special mode, it can explode instantly and emit considerable power.

 But the disadvantage is that the power of the second hit is greatly reduced, and it is easy to cause damage to the flying instrument.

 This is also the reason why Li Chengyi stopped worrying about the second blow after blocking the first blow.

Of course, everything in front of him was as he expected, and he had guessed it in advance when he was locked by the red needle rain.

 After all, he was so unscrupulous in assassinating people in the city. It would be strange if the omnics in the association didn't get angry.

The only thing that Li Chengyi didn't expect was that the opponent only sent out one omnic to chase him.

 He had thought that there might be several people taking action at the same time, but he did not expect that the situation would be simpler than he thought before.

 In the office.

Syndra stood behind her desk, holding a black print hanging on the white wall in her hands.

It is a sketch of a stag's head with white lines on a black background.

 The antlers of the deer are bold and gorgeous, and the roughness and primitive beauty of the jungle are revealed in the painting.

"Can you be quiet now?" After hanging the painting, Sindra breathed out, turned around and sat down, and looked at Li Chengyi who was sitting on the sofa opposite.

 “My friend said, yes.” Li Chengyi answered, sitting upright and seriously. After everything was over, he returned to his original calm and composed appearance.

 “He is very courageous, really very courageous.” Syndra sighed. He reached out and took out two bottles of Bean from the small refrigerator on one side, and threw one to the other side.

"Although Suiyang City is not a big city, it is still protected by the Federation and blocked by the Silent Fortress. The Silent Fortress's city eyes, combined with the high-level omnics, will not be difficult if you really want to kill him."

 “It depends on whether it’s worth it.” Li Chengyi said. "I personally think that Zheng Jiayu is not enough to alarm this level of security."

"It's not necessarily possible to add Xu Zhongsheng." Syndra said, "So, for a short time, let him not show up."

“I don’t know anything, but he is very smart and will definitely know the danger of showing up next time.” Li Chengyi replied.

To be precise, the killing of Zheng Jiayu and several bodyguards only attracted the deputy director of the Security Bureau and some ordinary police officers to surround them.

 At that time, the police's vigilance and danger towards him had not increased much.

 But after he killed Xu Zhongsheng, the situation immediately changed.

“After Xu Zhongsheng’s death, Deputy Director Ding Zaocheng learned of the situation and immediately decided to apply for the city’s Sky Eye, and cooperated with his flying instrument to snipe the murderer from a distance.

Zheng Jiayu is nothing, but Xu Zhongsheng is different. His father is a member of the Federation, and he himself is also considered a figure in Suiyang. The most important thing is that he is one of the core members of the Xu family. "

“The descendants of the Xu family are scattered in all walks of life in Suiyang, and many of them hold important positions. Naturally, the leader of the core is Mr. Xu Zhenchang, the head of the Xu family.

He is a member of the guild and a high-level omnic. Of course, rank cannot determine the lethality. What really determines the upper limit of an omnic's lethality is the flying instrument itself.

 Xu Zhongsheng is the most promising among his children. Now that someone is dead, no one can tell what the Xu family's attitude and reaction will be. "

 Sindra deliberately analyzed the current situation.

“Brother Ding Ning also said at the beginning that what determines the destructive power of an omnic is not the strength of the mental power, but the flying instrument itself.” Li Chengyi nodded lightly. "And this is Suiyang"

"Yes, this is Suiyang. There are not many rare resources to maintain the various maintenance and consumption of high-level flying instruments. And in the city, high-power weapon modules are not allowed to be loaded. The power of flying instruments, on the red glass The module is the upper limit, this is really good," Syndra sighed.

 He couldn't remember how many times he sighed.

“Boss, actually you should be happy.” Li Chengyi comforted. "After all, my friend is a person who repays kindness."

"Haha...high-power modules are not allowed in urban areas, but it's different outside. It's better to be careful." Syndra reminded. Don't mention repaying your gratitude after death.

“I definitely understand!” Li Chengyi nodded, this time testing the upper limit of the power of the urban omnic’s flying instrument. At the same time, he also learned the limit of the defense power of the Wisteria Flower Scale Clothes superimposed with the Solid Flower Language. They also eliminated Xu Zhongsheng, a dangerous element. And absorbed enough evil thoughts to complete the evolution of Gladiolus in one fell swoop.

 It’s like killing four birds with one stone.

Although it causes a lot of trouble, it’s really a good deal.

“So, now that you’ve seen the destructive power of an omnic, are you still planning to buy a flying instrument?” Syndra suddenly asked, changing the subject.

 “This.” Li Chengyi hesitated.

 Coping with blind spots and eliminating obstacles from hostile forces requires teamwork. In other words, he will have to form his own team sooner or later.

 If you want to absorb evil thoughts in the team, you must have a close-range position on the front line.

Looking back now, the omnic is not very suitable for me.

“Except for the omnics, there are only those who can transform people. However, there is a faction among the omnics called the pure-blood sect, which you may be interested in. This is the route that Ding is taking to build the city today.” Syndra pointed out.

 “Pure-blood faction?”

 “As the name suggests, the so-called pure blood means.”

Syndra was about to explain when suddenly there was a gentle knock on the door.

 “Boss, there is a reply from Longxumen.” The secretary reminded him with a pencil eyebrow across the door.
