Chapter 676: Chapter 23 Death List

In the deafening roar, rocket shells engulfed the remaining four Agents Smith. The explosion’s flames evaporated the ice, and large clouds of white vapor hissed out.

Tang Zheng didn’t see any enemies on the infrared radar, but he wasn’t satisfied. He emerged from his Beetle again, preparing to bomb with his Mechanical Lion Roar Cannon, when a Men in Black suddenly sprang out of the mist. His hands transformed into straight knives, slashing towards Tang Zheng’s head.

"Die!" Tang Zheng didn’t evade. He swung his right arm, now metallic due to the Roaring Cannon, directly at the two straight knives. Surprisingly, he failed to block them, which gave him a bad feeling. He immediately summoned his Power Armor.

With a cold expression, Agent Smith continued to swing his blades, leaving a trail of afterimages as they repeatedly chopped at Tang Zheng’s right arm. After losing all his clones, he concentrated all his energy into his main body in order to enhance his combat properties.

As layer upon layer of armor emerged from his wristwatch, covering half his body, Tang Zheng’s right arm was knocked away by the arm blades. The Smith now held strength beyond imagination, powerful as a seventy-ton heavy tank, capable of crushing anything that stood in his way.

Not wanting to confront him directly, Tang Zheng withdrew back into his war chariot.

With a bang, the arm blade struck the turret of the Beetle, causing the steel to creak and twist like a bread twist, leaving a tiny gap.

Tang Zheng was heartbroken, never having expected his armor to be damaged the first time he deployed it. In rage, he raised both arms, aiming at Smith’s face.

Two white Impact Beams shot out, striking their target head on. Smith was knocked back, skidding across ten meters of ground and leaving a trench in his wake.

Tang Zheng flew out of the Beetle and stared at Smith, who had stood back up with a cold face and was completely unharmed. His trademark black suit wasn’t even damaged, making Tang Zheng realize that the Men in Black weren’t merely robots.

He continuously fired Impact Beams to bomb Smith, intending to use his aerial advantage to kill him. Unexpectedly, Smith squatted and then jumped with all his might, soaring like lightning toward him.

Tang Zheng attempted to dodge, but Smith’s arm unexpectedly stretched out like a spring and wrapped around his leg.

Smith yanked him down like whipping a whip, slamming Tang Zheng to the ground. He then pulled Tang back towards him and sent another punch to his head.

In front of the disturbed monitor data, Tang Zheng used his left hand to block a second punch. His right hand thrust into Smith’s abdomen, yet the punch that could have shattered an armored vehicle didn’t cause him any harm.

Smith grabbed Tang Zheng’s head, preparing to deliver a knee-strike.

Tang Zheng went with the motion and grabbed his leg, leveraging his whole strength to throw him to the ground. He quickly pounced on Smith’s head, holding his neck and firing an Energy Beam Cannon from his chest at his body.

Smith’s head twisted 180 degrees, and the lower half of his body was vaporized, but he didn’t die. His cold eyes stared at Tang Zheng and his mouth suddenly opened. His broken neck ignited like a rocket, and in an instant, he bit into Tang Zheng’s arm.

At the end of his mission, Smith would self-destruct, a force as powerful as a mini nuclear bomb!

Tang Zheng didn’t need to ask to know this was a major danger. His right hand, with all its strength, plunged into Smith’s skull and he released an Impact Beam, obliterating the skull into pieces. At the same time, he activated his thrusters at full speed, shooting away in the opposite direction of Qin Yan and the others to avoid harming them.

In a mere two seconds, Tang Zheng, breaking the sound barrier, had already appeared a kilometer away. Every building he flew past was destroyed by his shock wave.

Although Smith’s head was shattered, the self-destruct code had nearly imprinted Tang Zheng’s hand. Tang Zheng quickly deployed his Light Defense Shield. A blinding fireball explosion engulfed a radius of three hundred meters. All buildings and humans were incinerated into vapor.

"Uncle!" Lu Fan cried in panic as she watched Tang Zheng kill the Men in Black and suddenly flee without returning. She had a bad feeling, and as expected, an explosion occurred next. Despite being a kilometer away, they were all thrown away by the shock wave of the explosion.

"Don’t panic!" Qin Yan held onto Lu Fan, her heart filled with worry. She didn’t dare to contemplate the outcome. The chances of surviving at the center of such an explosion were minimal.

"Nothing will happen to Uncle! He has two pieces of SS-level defense equipment and an S-level Light Defense Shield. He can withstand the explosion," Lu Fan said, comforting herself. She still wasn’t at ease as she shook off Qin Yan’s hand. "I need to find Uncle."

To Lu Fan, the completion of the game wasn’t important. If her uncle died, she would find life meaningless.

The newcomers, who had spent a short time with Tang Zheng, struggled to show any sadness. Mei Jueye had a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, hoping that Tang Zheng would die sooner.

With her face pale, Chen Hong felt that she had lost her most powerful support. She believed no one else would look after her from now on. Pang Meiqin didn’t look much better. Images of all the care Tang Zheng had showed her flashed across her mind. For some reason, her first thought wasn’t to escape, but to go and save Tang Zheng.
