Chapter 275: 255 backhand three

Green Tower.

In the six-person conference room.

The five highest authorities of Belgastin city along with Simon, representing the military, were all watching the battlefield feed from the satellite with calm expressions.

Due to the intensity of the electronic warfare, the image was sometimes clear, sometimes blurred.

But as the situation on the battlefield quickly became clear, the outcome of the electronic warfare was decided, and the Sand Thieves had gained an absolute advantage. The image suddenly became crystal clear. They had obviously deliberately lifted the blocking.

Seeing the government forces defeated once again in the battlefield, Mistin was not surprised.

As the Chairman of the Noel Group’s Board of Directors, they had numerous connections with the government forces and were very clear about how much fighting power these corrupt military forces had left.

"General Simon, things are looking grim now, do you have any good countermeasures?"

Mistin still wore a smile on his face.

"The Salin Squad has been in the Oasis for quite some time; it seems they have failed," replied Simon, and despite being one of the top officials in the military, he seemed completely unconcerned about the collapse of the government forces.

"We never expected Star Lake to be behind the Sand Thieves," he added.

"So, what do you plan to do?" Huang Zhiheng of Zhi Cheng Capital spoke up. "If needed, perhaps I can provide some support."

Under Zhi Cheng Capital’s command were several top-tier mercenary teams. No one knew their specific strength, but their track records were no weaker than that of the Salin Squad.

The Salin Squad was essentially a temporary elite team put together by everyone. Since it was put together, it was impossible for anyone to send out their strongest elites.

So, with each having their aces up their sleeves, the six people present did not take the disappearance of Salin and others too seriously.

"No need for support. I’m more interested in that last person who appeared, the one calling himself Great Shining Star Han Qi," said Simon calmly.

"As far as I know, there are not many great stars in Star Lake, only a total of six. If Han Qi is really one of them, then it means he was once one of the six most powerful people in Star Lake," said Mistin.

"So what? Judging from his actions just now, although Grade Seven is strong, it’s not enough to make us shrink back," Mayor Cabey Westlink commented coldly.

The six people present, each had their Grade Six or Grade Seven individuals—final weapon trump cards that would never be lacking in their own laboratories.

And from Han Qi’s just previous performance, although he was strong, he wasn’t at a level they couldn’t handle.

"Han Qi, and that unknown Black Armored Reinforced Human; the strength of these two has already reached the warning line," Deputy Mayor Midlan frowned. "We should take timely measures to safely resolve these hidden dangers instead of suspecting each other here. We need to protect everyone’s interests."

"That’s true... but..." Huang Zhiheng from Zhi Cheng Capital started to say.

Suddenly, the monitoring screen emitted a faint sound.

Han Qi reached for his sword, six crystal blades shot straight into the sky, splitting into thousands of crystal sword blades, falling like rain.

Hiss hiss hiss hiss!!!

The densely packed large area of sword blades seemed to all at once create thousands of Feiyi in an instant.

They curved and cut through the bodies of soldiers, piercing through one vehicle after another, tanks and armored vehicles alike.

Boom!!

The continuous explosions, due to their density, blended into one sound, like unceasing thunder, making the entire monitoring screen vibrate slightly.

Just a few seconds.

An area of desolation abruptly appeared on the battlefield.

Within this desolate area, all government soldiers and their vehicles and weapons were utterly destroyed.

And after rampaging for five continuous seconds, the six crystal blades finally flew back, converging back into the heavy black crystal sword in Han Qi’s hands.

"!!!...."

"!!"

"This guy...."

In just a few seconds, the meeting room of the Green Tower became deathly silent.

The six individuals, who had been maintaining a sense of propriety, were all visibly shaken by the sudden outburst of the scene, falling into complete silence.

Their gazes were almost glued to the surveillance footage.

From Han Qi’s polite greetings to them at the outset, to ultimately eliminating thousands of government soldiers single-handedly.

They all grew increasingly somber.

The already deteriorating government forces, in that instant, completely collapsed and turned to flee.

And with the Sand Thieves’ Chen Sheng in pursuit, what started as a slight advantage soon turned into a massacre.

"Where did this Han Qi get such a huge energy engine?!" Simon’s tone clearly fluctuated.

A Feiyi Master who could decide the outcome of a small-scale battle on his own could no longer be overlooked by him.

"Such an outburst would require a tremendous amount of energy to sustain, meaning that behind this man, there must be an even greater force supporting him! In other words... someone is brazenly supporting a terrorist organization from the Star Lake, formerly known as the United Front!" Mayor Cabey said with an ugly expression.

"The emergence of Han Qi will shake our interests in Sutan," Tine from Andelien Technology, who had been silent until now, suddenly interjected coldly.

"Therefore, I propose that we join forces and truly eliminate this man with all our might."

Upon hearing this, the other five fell silent.

It was a call to force everyone to reveal their trump cards and to thoroughly exterminate Star Lake.

"Why can’t we cooperate with them?" Mistin, representing the Noel Group, said with a sly smile.

"Maybe with other organizations, but Star Lake... impossible," replied Simon, who was clearly just coming to his senses after the initial shock.

"Why?" Mistin raised an eyebrow.

"Why do you think they were jointly annihilated by White Star and Yi Country in the past?" Simon sneered. "It’s because the main principle of Star Lake was to abandon technology! Destroy technology! Destroy intelligence! But now, look at this Han Qi... what is he using?"

Indeed... Han Qi himself was using artificial intelligence Feiyi. Was this still the United Front?

No...

This was simply a powerful force disguised as Star Lake, operating under the name of the United Front!

"I can smell the scent of a conspiracy... So, no matter who is really behind it, the most prudent approach is to completely obliterate them at the first opportunity, erasing this extraneous variable," Simon said gravely.

"And this man."

Mistin interjected, adjusting the surveillance screen to show Li Chengyi, who was rushing out of Oasis City.

"This man is also very strong; the Sand Thieves can’t stop him at all! Even the Sand Thieves’ Silver is killed in a very short time in his presence. He isn’t from any faction we’ve known before. He hid among the Blind Spot Individuals to enter Oasis, and as soon as the other Blind Spot Individuals had just entered the city, he erupted with power, successively slaughtering anyone who stood in his way. This man’s strength, like that of Han Qi we just saw, shares common characteristics," Mistin said.

"You mean... an unknown origin?" Simon understood his meaning.

"Yes. Therefore, if we want to completely wipe them out, it’s best to include him as well," Mistin said with a slight smile on his face. "After all, what we need to do is not just kill people, but also send a brutal message to all forces daring to meddle with Sutan, letting them know that this, this is our turf!"

"Exactly! Whatever tentacle sent by whichever faction, we cut them all off!" Mayor Cabey concurred.

The others nodded in agreement.

"Then, gentlemen, prepare to mobilize your means. Let’s act together and eradicate any future threats," Simon suggested.

"Good!"

"Agreed!"

Without any objections this time, the other five nodded in unison, picking up their phones or speaking into their headsets to contact their subordinates, beginning to issue orders to mobilize their true, most powerful cards.

And just then,

on the monitors, Li Chengyi burst out of Oasis City, taking out Mokadi in a few quick moves. He displayed terrifying, incomprehensible technological weaponry.

"Wait! They’ve met up!" Mistin exclaimed. "This Han Qi, and the mysterious Black Armored Human, it looks like they’re about to clash." A hint of curiosity and a smile appeared on his face.

"Isn’t this perfect? Let them fight and both suffer injuries, then we can join forces to pin them down and wipe them out."

"Such power has already become a significant threat to us; indeed, we need to deal with it as soon as possible."

"Dispatch all units; we must kill them in one strike!"

Inside the Green Tower, the group swiftly came to a consensus.

In the night desert below the sky, fires and explosions began erupting around Oasis City, clearly the Blind Spot Individuals had started their antics.

Han Qi paid no attention to the commotion inside the city, focusing quietly on Li Chengyi in front of him.

That strange and lavish Reinforced Suit was unlike any model he remembered; it was clearly a unique custom suit from a laboratory.

"You’ve killed so many of my men, yet you dare stand before me and spout nonsense."

He gripped Gladiolus, stepping forward steadily.

Snap.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks about ten meters away from Li Chengyi – just short of the distance,

but he precisely stopped at ten meters out.

"Now, weren’t you going to kill me?"

Han Qi smiled, raising his hand to point at his own chest.

"Come."

Hiss!

A flash of black light.

His vision blurred for a moment, a jolt of alarm in his heart, and he reflexively thrust his hand backward to counter-stab.

Clang!!

Gladiolus clashed fiercely behind him with a Golden Longsword.

Two blades striking, devoid of any flourishes.

Before Han Qi could react, the heavy sword in his hand skewed oddly into the air, a mysterious deviation he could not comprehend, and he had no idea why he would strike in that direction.

’Is this some sort of unknown new technology?!’

A thought flashed through his mind, and he made a split-second decision.

With a soft sound of ’hiss,’

six crystals exploded off Gladiolus, encircling and whirling about in the vicinity.

The crystals, moving at speeds surpassing four times the speed of sound, collided with an inexplicable burst of golden-green electric arcs.

Boom!!

The arc scattered, and the crystals shattered.

Han Qi and Li Chengyi both stepped back at the same time.

Han Qi now had a sharp wound on his shoulder,

while three fine cuts appeared on Li Chengyi’s chest from the crystals.

"My energy field... dissipated?" Han Qi’s pupils constricted as he looked at the wound on his shoulder.

His Grade Seven energy field had, in that instant, swiftly been depleted of energy and dissipated, with one of the crystals also smashed to pieces.

Even his armor module had sustained a mark.

If he had been wondering why Mokadi had been dealt with in just two moves upon encounter,

now he understood.

The strange deflecting technique, and the mysterious technology that dissipated the protective energy field, and the sword that had been blocked yet inexplicably caused injury...

’This guy...’ he stared intently at Li Chengyi, "is very strong!"

Li Chengyi’s Golden Sword in hand subtly rotated, his eyes beneath the helmet fixated on the opponent with equal unrest.

The once infallible Blade of Destiny had, for the first time, failed to hit its mark.

’No... it didn’t fail; the damage was just minimized...’

The Green Electric Greatsword had been intercepted and weakened by the crystals the instant it made contact, and afterward, it barely managed to work in combination with Glint Flash to dismantle the opponent’s protective energy field, but it ran out of strength.

The Hand of Obsession, coupled with the Blade of Destiny and the Green Electric Greatsword, were three continuous fatal moves that had made him nearly invincible within Oasis City.

But now, for the first time, this combination of moves had failed...

Beep beep beep...

The signal on the device sounded once more.

Li Chengyi crushed it and tossed it aside.

This man before him, without a doubt, was the strongest opponent he had encountered recently.

He must treat this battle with his full attention and not allow himself to be distracted.

’I must end this battle quickly!’

"Are your comrades calling you?" Han Qi spoke. "Aren’t you going to respond?"

His expression unchanged, his tone seemed unhurried and steady, without any hint of agitation.

But he was equally aware that the local powers of Sutan would not ignore the situation developing here.

A new crisis was rapidly forming and drawing closer; he had to quickly take care of the man before him and then lead Oasis City to relocate to avoid missile strikes.

"After I kill you, I’ll go back."

Images of the various Floral Dresses he currently possessed flashed through Li Chengyi’s mind.

Wisteria Flowers, evolved three times.

Gladiolus, evolved five times.

Titan Sunflower, evolved three times.

Feilian, evolved once.

Purple Magnolia, evolved three times.
