When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean.

Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Counterattack

Silver Light’s speed ultimately couldn’t match Chen Qing’s Mechanical Bomb; before he could even reach Chen Qing, the Mechanical Spider inside his body had already been activated by Chen Qing!

The powerful bomb exploded inside Silver Light’s body! Flesh and blood flew everywhere!

Blood swiftly dyed the surrounding seawater red, bits of flesh floated in the sea, bobbing up and down.

Chen Qing, listening to the explosion, slightly frowned and looked in Silver Light’s direction.

All she saw was half of Silver Light’s body had been blasted apart, his organs in a chaotic mess exposed on the outside.

But Silver Light was not yet dead; the recovery and Life Force of Extraordinary Ability Users were inherently stronger and more resilient than those of ordinary professionals.

He could still barely stand on the sandy ground, flashing Chen Qing a terrifying yet arrogant smile.

"You are... not much after all,"

Silver Light moved his lips, taunting.

"..."

Chen Qing didn’t really react to Silver Light’s words.

What concerned her was why the power of the Mechanical Spider Bomb had diminished.

Normally, the Mechanical Spider Bombs that entered Silver Light’s body should have been enough to blast him into mincemeat and completely end his life.

Yet, he could still stand before Chen Qing, albeit with difficulty.

The fear in Silver Light’s eyes just now was definitely not feigned.

People like Silver Light, despite casually trampling on Life and putting on airs, are actually more afraid of death than anyone else.

Although Chen Qing found it strange, her actions didn’t hesitate as she charged at Silver Light again, knife in hand.

Accompanied by her movements, the Mechanical Spider Bombs surged towards Silver Light like a tide.

Regarding the issue with Silver Light and those few Mechanical Spider Bombs, Chen Qing faintly had some guesses, but wasn’t completely certain.

She suspected that Silver Light’s Extraordinary Ability was mechanical-related; otherwise, it’s unexplainable why the Mechanical Spiders didn’t kill Silver Light.

There was an instant, so quick it was almost imperceptible, when she seemed to have lost control of the Mechanical Spiders.

However, at the same moment, the Mechanical Spiders exploded instantaneously; these two moments almost occurred simultaneously.

Chen Qing was somewhat unsure if that feeling was really not about losing control of the Mechanical Spiders.

If the control of the Mechanical Spiders had been taken, they would not have exploded.

The feeling was more like the Mechanical Spiders were instantly dismantled and scrapped, but because of the timing, it didn’t complete.

The dismantling action and the bomb explosion occurred in the same instant, which is why Silver Light wasn’t killed.

Of course, it’s also possible that Silver Light’s physique was exceptionally strong, though this possibility wasn’t very likely.

If it were the former possibility, Chen Qing didn’t quite understand why Silver Light’s profession was a fighter rather than a Mechanic.

An Extraordinary Ability related to mechanics, a naturally born Mechanic, would be even more suited to becoming a Mechanic than Chen Qing, who has a strong inherent talent for mechanics.

Chen Qing’s guess actually didn’t need any verification, considering Silver Light was definitively going to die.

She would absolutely not let Silver Light go.

Compared to verifying her guess, satisfying her slight curiosity, making sure Silver Light dies was much more important.

Chen Qing clearly understood the priorities of the situation.

Watching Chen Qing’s actions, Shine’s eyes flickered with a trace of regret.

Regret that someone like Chen Qing couldn’t be used by him, become his comrade.

Compared to fools like Silver Light and A Zhiqiu, he preferred working with intelligent people like Shuguang Chen Qing, or controllable people like Liu Jin as "comrades."

Facing the oncoming Mechanical Spider Bombs, Silver Light’s eyes were full of disgust and fear.

Severely wounded, he was utterly powerless to escape. At that moment, Silver Light couldn’t help but feel somewhat grateful that the elders in his family had forced him into mechanical studies and practical experience after learning about his Extraordinary Ability.

The burden of learning during his childhood was still vividly imprinted in his memory.

Even though Silver Light always displayed an extreme aversion, looking down on all including Mechanics as professionals, and had severed ties with his family.

It was undeniable, however, that Silver Light relied heavily on the family he was born and raised in.

Money, weapons, supplies, connections...

He had never been easy to handle, and while he was still within his family, he had even attacked his own blood relatives.

But because Silver Light possessed such an Extraordinary Ability, no matter how much trouble he caused, his family could still tolerate him and clean up his messes.

As long as Silver Light was willing to return home, he would still undeniably be the next heir to the family.

The severely injured Silver Light was absolutely unable to escape. However, born into a family of Mechanics, the variety of Mechanical Creations he possessed far exceeded those of Chen Qing.

Combat-type, defensive-type, support-type, turrets, firearms...

A multitude of diverse Mechanical Creations suddenly blocked Chen Qing’s path towards Silver Light.

A large number of Mechanical Spiders began exploding; this time, Chen Qing’s senses were clearer.

She distinctly felt Silver Light disabling the Mechanical Spider Bombs.

And he did it without any physical contact, instantly dismantling them.

The Mechanical Spiders were functioning just fine, but the next second, they turned into a pile of parts scattered across the sandy ground.

Chen Qing’s guess was not wrong; Silver Light’s Extraordinary Ability related to mechanics.

An endless stream of Mechanical Creations under Silver Light’s command launched an attack on Chen Qing.

A barrage of intense gunfire was directed at Chen Qing, who, although severely injured herself, was considerably recuperated with the aid of the Golden Magic Jade.

Her movements were incredibly agile as she deftly maneuvered through the "Gun Rain", using Silver Light’s Mechanical Creations to quickly approach him.

"!"

It had to be said, such a Chen Qing brought immense pressure on Silver Light; he was now panicking.

Silver Light looked around, trying to find his companions to come to his aid.

But Shine had disappeared with Liu Jin, Huan Cai might be being hunted, and Shuguang was currently evenly matched in a fierce struggle with Wind Shadow Jade, whom she had destroyed several mechanical constructs already.

Overall, no one was available to help him, nor would they help him.

The attitude of Shine was very clear.

"Seriously?"

At that moment, Silver Light truly felt the realistic sense that he had messed up.

This time, no one could help him.

"Do you, do you know who I am!"

Silver Light shouted desperately at Chen Qing, completely losing his initially arrogant and deranged demeanor.

"I don’t care who you are."

Chen Qing stood atop a massive turret in front of Silver Light, looking down at him coldly from a high position.

No matter who he was, today he had to die.

At that moment, in Silver Light’s eyes, Chen Qing seemed just like those commoners and professionals used to see him.

Like a Demon God descending to the world, bringing only slaughter and fear.

Chen Qing snapped her fingers. Although the sound was drowned out by the seawater, all the Mechanical Creations that were previously under Silver Light’s command suddenly turned their direction and aimed their barrels at Silver Light!
