Chapter 567: 284 Cellular Furnace, War God Team! (Happy Spring Festival!)

P.M.

The sun was fierce, casting its rays unabashedly, coating the city’s skyscrapers with a dazzling golden sheen. The sky was a clear azure, cloudless, as if washed clean by water. Pedestrians hurried to and fro on the streets.

On the roadside, green trees swayed gently in the breeze, casting a speckled pattern of shadows. Within the shadows stood two figures, one tall and the other short, in silence.

Bai Xiao was still in that tight black t-shirt, wearing sunglasses.

And Yao Qing was dressed in a light blue dress, its hem fluttering softly in the breeze, like an iris blooming in the wind. Her eyes were as clear as a serene lake, deep and bright. At this moment, she was looking at Bai Xiao with seriousness.

"The Six Major Companies are getting serious this time."

Yao Qing sighed, "The assault by the Eternal Sleep Sect the other night really angered them. According to the statistics gathered afterwards, a good seventy percent of the Six Major Companies’ vanguard troops fell at the Sleep Sea Resort. Even excluding our Mo Yun Group, that number represents a staggering loss..."

"The Six Major Companies won’t let this slide; they will inevitably seek retribution against the Eternal Sleep Sect, which I had anticipated. But I didn’t expect it to come so swiftly. In less than two days, the Six have already unified their thoughts and devised an operation named ’Awakening.’ The entire Awakening plan aims to destroy the Eternal Sleep Sect and seize the so-called flesh of the Eternal Sleep God..."

Bai Xiao nodded slightly, then asked.

"What’s the situation with the Heavenly God Company and the Evolution Ground? Didn’t you mention that top Armor experts might show up... perhaps even General Armor?"

Yao Qing pondered for a moment, then answered the question in detail.

"Indeed, there are reports that General Armor will participate in the operation, but the number shouldn’t be too large because, to some extent, it would break the unspoken rules of the Armor Circle. Even if the Six Major Companies turn a blind eye to each other’s actions, at most, one or two General Armors would join the battlefield incognito..."

"It’s not only due to the mutual wariness between the Six Major Companies but also due to concerns about the Metal Council. In front of the Metal Council, the Six Major Companies often exhibit restraint and to some extent conceal their true strength..."

Bai Xiao frowned slightly: "The Metal Council?"

He had heard of this name before; it was the designation of a vast power.

"That’s right, they are the force that researches mechanical energy Armor, and in the Tianxia Federation they more or less hold a dominant position. At least for now, based on the Six Major Companies’ behavior, the entire Biological Armor Circle isn’t strong enough to contend with the Metal Council..."

Yao Qing spoke with a hint of fear.

Then, she continued answering Bai Xiao’s initial question.

"Aside from the Six Major Companies, we’ve noticed that the Heavenly God Company and the Evolution Ground are also making significant moves. For instance, one of the Heavenly God Company’s three War God Teams was urgently recalled to headquarters yesterday and is likely to be deployed to the battlefield. All members of the War God Team consist of double-winged Biological Mecha Masters. The team captain Tian Long is one of the strongest individuals just below the General Armor level. His Mecha is the Red Knight, a Three-winged Armor..."

"As for the Evolution Ground, it is said they’ve completely revealed their trump card, deploying the latest research outcome—the Demon Series! A squad entirely composed of Demon Armor, reportedly with wild animalistic natures, top-notch combat instincts, and a horrifying bloodlust. Monster cells even dominate the human consciousness..."

Yao Qing slightly shook her head as she spoke; this was one of the reasons why the Evolution Ground was labeled a terrorist organization. Their research was too much against humanity. The top scientific results were essentially monsters.

"Hmm."

Bai Xiao listened attentively, nodding slightly, then asked again.

"So, their strongest force is the Three-winged Armor?"

"Not General Armor?"

Yao Qing took a moment to think and quickly reminded Bai Xiao.

"Don’t underestimate them; Three-winged Armor is completely different from Single and Double-winged. The Three-winged Armor has condensed a Cell Furnace within its core, capable of unleashing formidable power from primary cells at any moment, momentarily giving the Biological Armor the strength of the monster cells’ original host..."

"Such power is explosive, overwhelming!"

"Even an entire squad of Double-winged Armor might not necessarily be a match for a single Three-winged Armor; there’s a generational gap in strength..."

She quickly explained the power of Three-winged Armor in detail.

Trying to prevent Bai Xiao from acting rashly and at a disadvantage.

However, upon hearing Yao Qing’s description, Bai Xiao felt that the Three-winged Armor was hardly worth mentioning. Yes, it sounded like a single Three-winged Armor could be comparable to an entire squad of Double-winged Armor, which seemed impressive.

But, he thought, a squad of Double-winged Armor wasn’t that strong to begin with. Just the other night, Bai Xiao had personally squashed a Double-winged Armor from the Heavenly God Company—the Sunburn Axe, and found it quite ordinary. Even if a squad of five Sunburn Axes was assembled, he was confident he could destroy them all!

Even more so now.

At this moment, carrying two top Secret Martial arts, Bai Xiao felt an unprecedented surge of ambition. A mere Three-winged Armor, forget it...

Let the General Armor come—that would be more like it!

Of course, he didn’t share these thoughts with Yao Qing, and simply made an impassive and cold promise: "It doesn’t matter how many people the Heavenly God Company and the Evolution Ground send; I fear none. If they seek death, let them come..."
