Chapter 199: Chapter 117: Murder Game_2

Mu Dan murmured softly, her gloved hand in delicate white lace reaching out as she stepped toward the Spiritual Ability User, parting her slender, black silk-clad leg.

"Die!"

The Spiritual Ability User roared loudly, charging at high speed.

Compared to the speed of the Spiritual Ability User, Mu Dan’s movements resembled practicing Tai Chi in a park, yet each move was incredibly precise. She adopted a bow stance and launched a punch—her dark golden hair suddenly fluttering backwards, her slim arms channeling the immense energy generated by her body, with a blue halo appearing around the edge of her fist!

[Hundredfold Electromagnetic Fist]!

Bang!

Her fair fist shot forward as if launched from a cannon!

The Spiritual Ability User’s eyes bulged!

What happened?

Contrary to his expectation of smashing the woman before him into pieces, her fist suddenly appeared before his eyes, the immense kinetic energy, the blue halo, her fist enveloped in a white lace glove...

Like a water balloon hit by a cannonball, blood, black, and white fluids splashed toward the direction of the camp.

Mu Dan remained stable in her bow stance and punching motion.

The head of the Level B Spiritual Ability User exploded, and his corpse rolled forward several meters on the sandy ground, continuing to twitch.

Mu Dan slowly stood up, her perfect figure standing tall gracefully, the fist that flew out had retracted on its own, and the right hand overall was unaffected, only the synthetic skin showed a large bruise, and the delicate glove was completely ruined.

Mu Dan removed her glove, disdainfully tossing it to the ground, then picked up the hem of her skirt, elegantly curtsying towards the headless corpse, and turned to walk towards the temporary supply station.

Incidentally, she issued commands to the pursuing camp troops, "Do not bother with that beautiful, cute, gentle maid," and "Clean up the corpse thoroughly."

Inside the supply station.

Daoist Wang, who had just switched to X armor, furrowed his brows and pursed his lips, asking:

"Uncle Hei, is this loyal robotic bodyguard you developed really that strong?"

"Of course."

Instructor Hei laughed:

"The original setting of the loyal robotic bodyguard was to protect our main weaponry, the Horror Mecha. They were designed to cooperate with the Horror Mecha in battling the King-level Blade Beasts. Do you think they would not be strong?"

"Then why seal them away? Such powerful combatants are even more formidable than Half-human Mechas; wouldn’t it be good to deploy them on the battlefield?"

"The development was near completion when a test unit went out of control, destroying a ground satellite Fortress within fifteen minutes, which housed sixteen hundred soldiers, three hundred sixty scientific personnel, and three thousand residents... No one survived."

Instructor Hei sighed:

"Its strength lies in the ability to mimic, even replace, human thought, which is essential for controlling its parts and immense energy."

"And this ability ensured that it could become a complete mechanical life form and potentially betray humanity."

"So, we applied various restrictions to Mu Dan, especially on the weapon systems, and handed her over to you as your personal bodyguard. After all, I can’t always be around to protect you. Uncle Hei might be old, but there are still many important tasks I must attend to."

Jixuan:...

If he could just focus on cultivation for six months, it would really be uncertain who would be protecting whom then.

Alas, it seems a bit troublesome to focus on cultivation at the moment.

"I’ll take Mu Dan to the military base to interrogate a few captured Spiritual Ability Users. Uncle, you should relocate this temporary supply station to avoid exposure."

"You’re actually ordering me around!"

"Once we deal with Mo Feng, I’ll give you a massage just like the one Commander Ling Tong enjoys."

"Do we need to add some weaponry during the relocation?"

Instructor Hei quickly changed his tone:

"This has nothing to do with your Spiritual Energy massage; it’s purely as an elder showing care for a junior."

Jixuan gave a thumbs up.

Uncle Hei really is a great man who knows when to yield and when to stand firm.

...

Half an hour later.

Jixuan, dressed in X War Armor, and Mu Dan, wearing the standard combat armor, rushed to the now calm Fortress on the surface.

The standard combat armor was unisex, but Mu Dan still managed to exude a delicate charm in it.

She did it on purpose.

Lingtong and Red Snake had safely returned to the surface.

Red Snake was guarding in her large Mecha at a distance. Such Mechas required extensive maintenance after being operated, and they were seldom driven.

Lingtong, dressed in a standard combat suit and protective gear, along with two other Half-human Mechas, was interrogating some captured Spiritual Ability Users at the camp.

Because the Spiritual Ability Users released some unknown gas, most areas of the camp had been quickly evacuated.

When Jixuan arrived with Mu Dan, hundreds of soldiers in protective gear were urgently analyzing the composition of that pink gas at the ventilation points.

"How’s it going?"

Jixuan’s voice, processed through the silver-white armor, resonated.

Lingtong looked up, and her stern expression behind the transparent visor of her protective gear relaxed and softened momentarily.

——Previously during an online chat, Wang Jixuan had already revealed that he was the owner of "X" armor.

"We haven’t determined the composition of these gases yet."

Lingtong said in a soft voice:

"Let them brief you on the specifics, I’m not a professional... remember to turn on the armor’s filter."

"Yes, it’s on," Wang Jixuan responded simply.

A young female officer raised her hand to salute, "Commander! I am here to report to you!"

"Please proceed."

"Due to the activation of a special catalyst, these gases are spreading rapidly!"

"Even though we shut down the fans as quickly as possible, the unknown gases still contaminated about thirty percent of the Fortress area, and there is still a tendency for further spread."

"When designing these fully enclosed underground fortresses, engineers only considered how to prevent Blade Beast poison gases, but did not consider how to prevent poison gases developed by humans themselves."

"If gases released by certain special Blade Beasts are detected, the Fortress’s ventilation system automatically converts to a full exhaust system and activates stored liquid nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide on each level."

"But now, we can only operate it manually, which has created a time delay allowing the poison gas to spread."

"Moreover, the ventilation outlets chosen by the enemy exist in the Upper, Middle, and Lower Cities. The situation is most severe in Lower City because the equipment is old and poorly maintained, quite severe in Upper City, but least severe in Middle City."

"However, strangely, the residents haven’t shown any discomfort so far."

The female officer added in the end:

"The specific components of this pink gas are quite ordinary, just some fast-release agents."

"We also detected an extremely faint Spiritual Ability reaction, suspecting it might be related to some rare abilities of certain Special Ability Users."

"We don’t have this information currently."

"That’s all!"

The female officer saluted and continued her work.

Wang Jixuan nodded with a smile—although she couldn’t see his expression.

Lingtong added simply: "These Spiritual Ability Users have also confessed; they were temporarily transferred here from the D3 battlefront by Mo Feng."

"Is D3 being heavily infiltrated?"

"It’s nearly becoming a colony of Spiritual Ability Users," Lingtong said softly, "these recent attacks are all related to the old battle zone of D3... Hm? Is this it?"

"Yes!"

Mu Dan quickly saluted, purposefully using a rough and hoarse voice to respond:

"Commander Lingtong, good day, I’m the commander’s wingman, I’m not human, I’m a Mechanical Body!"

"So I pose no threat to you!"

"Please don’t reject me!"

Wang Jixuan was a bit puzzled, not understanding what was happening.

Lingtong simply said: "I’ve seen your photo, Mu Dan, no need to overreact."

"Phew—"

Mu Dan’s tone was somewhat exaggerated, gently patting its chest while its armor layers trembled continuously.

"That’s good, that’s good."

Wang Jixuan didn’t bother with these trivial matters and directly asked, "Do you need my help in interrogating them? I’ve thought of some less dark methods recently."

"If possible..."

Buzz, buzz!

Ding ding!

Wang Jixuan and Lingtong’s communicators buzzed simultaneously.

[Xiao Zhou: I’ve sent a short video to Command Center 82, take a look and see what it means. It’s from Mo Feng!]

Mu Dan reverted to its usual voice: "The video has been captured, shall I bring it up?"

"Bring it up."

Several rays emerged from Mu Dan’s armored chest and a projection screen appeared in front of them.

It was still the environment inside the cockpit, and Mo Feng still wore a mask but had changed into purple yoga pants paired with a sports bralette, even giving herself a highlight that made her skin look tighter and fairer.

Mo Feng pursed her lips slightly, her pupils reflecting the screen of the prompter, she said lightly:

"Previously, I was just pretending to be foolish to make you drop your guard.

"Next, how about we play a murder game? Hehehe, see you later."

Whoosh!

The video abruptly ended.

At almost the same moment, a surge of Spiritual Ability Wave suddenly came from the northwest direction, affecting the entire Fortress.

In the distance, several soldiers suddenly started convulsing, their eyes bloodshot as they reached out towards their comrades, biting at them.
