18: Chapter 18 Humanoid Cannonball! Head-on Clash with the Steel Behemoth!

The shadow of death loomed overhead.

The 2.4-ton steel beast's scarlet electronic eyes were void of emotion.

Its mechanical heavy fist, capable of crushing a tank, smashed directly towards the Short-haired Lady, who was sitting on the ground, face ashen.

"It's over."

In the distance, Shen Qingci's eyes were splitting with rage as she sprinted with all her might.

But at this moment, the thirty-meter distance was an unbridgeable chasm.

Rescue was simply too late!

Just in this desperate fraction of a second.

On the west side of the Sorting Area, behind that three-meter-high scrap pile, a figure stood up.

"Tsk, what a pain!"

Su Ming spat out the grass root in his mouth, squinting against the gust of wind rushing towards him.

He had finally found a perfect spot to freeload metal and wanted to lay low until the end of time.

But this piece of junk had to cause trouble.

The Short-haired Lady had even given him two eggs this morning.

If he just watched her die, how could he continue to survive in the factory?

He definitely had to save her!

He pressed his intent on the system panel all the way to the end.

[True Mass: 296.3 kg (+)]

[mass points: 548.2]

"All in!"

Boom!

The mass points instantly cleared to zero.

A monstrous, surging heat erupted from within his body, ten times more ferocious than any previous time!

Su Ming's True Mass skyrocketed from less than three hundred kilograms!

[True Mass: 400kg... 600kg... 844.5 kg!]

Nearly eight hundred and fifty kilograms!

Su Ming only felt his whole body burning hot, his bone density and muscle strength undergoing another terrifying compression and reorganization.

Compared to the previous three hundred kilograms, his feet were now a bit heavier.

This robot... weighed at least two tons.

Su Ming still had that much self-awareness; without adding this mass, if three hundred kilograms went against two tons, he would definitely be the one sent away.

Su Ming flexed his ankles, bent his knees slightly, and firmly planted a horse stance on the edge of the scrap pile.

The next second, his legs exploded with force!

The concrete floor under his feet cracked with a "crack" sound, and spiderweb-like fissures instantly spread out.

With nearly eight hundred and fifty kilograms of True Mass, plus the bone density of solid tungsten steel.

He was like a solid iron shell flying close to the ground, rushing out with a dull sonic boom!

The speed wasn't particularly fast, but that terrifying, unstoppable kinetic energy...

...literally smashed a path through the air along the way!

At the critical moment!

Just before the robot's heavy fist was about to land, Su Ming's lean figure...

...slammed right in, blocking firmly in front of the Short-haired Lady.

He didn't even have time to assume any fighting stance; facing that world-destroying punch...

...he could only take a deep breath, cross his arms to protect his chest, and grit his teeth.

Take it head-on!

"Dong!!!"

The dull metallic thud was absurdly loud; the entire tin roof of the scrap processing plant hummed along with it!

A visible circle of white air waves exploded from the two of them as the center.

It spread frantically in a ring, blowing away all the scrap iron and screws within ten meters!

The fellow workers who were still lying on the ground and hadn't run far had their eardrums stinging from the loud noise, subconsciously closing their eyes in pain.

They didn't dare look.

No one dared to watch the tragic sight of that reckless teenager being smashed into a pulp of flesh.

However, amidst the violently churning dust, the expected splatter of blood and flesh did not appear.

Instead, there was a crisp "rip" sound of fabric tearing.

The dust cleared slightly.

Everyone's eyes instantly froze.

They saw that the lean teenager's cheap school uniform sleeves had been completely blown to shreds.

Exposing two arms that, while not thick, had incredibly firm lines.

His feet had literally crushed the thick explosion-proof concrete floor beneath him.

Ploughing two deep trenches more than half a meter long behind him!

But he was actually still standing!

He had managed to stay pinned in place without moving an inch, relying solely on that seemingly thin body.

His arms were firmly bracing against that mechanical heavy fist which was bigger than his head!

"Holy sh*t...!"

In the distance, a middle-aged man hiding behind a pile of scrap metal rubbed his eyes, forgetting even to breathe.

"Is... is this f*cking the sickly guy with Osteoporosis?!"

Silence.

Everyone was stunned.

The robot's intelligent system also seemed to have fallen into a momentary confusion.

[High-density physical obstacle detected... Threat level being evaluated...]

Its overclocked hydraulic engine let out a crazy roar, and its massive body pressed forward suddenly.

Pushing Su Ming to continue sliding backward, the trenches under his feet being ploughed even deeper.

At the same time, its left arm swung out violently, five alloy fingers closing together to form a sharp palm blade.

With a piercing sonic boom, it slashed directly towards Su Ming's defenseless head!

Crisis returned!

"Damn it, if I'm going to act, I have to do the whole thing!"

Su Ming felt the evil wind above his head and instantly had a plan in his mind.

He suddenly raised his head, his face showing no sign of an expert's bearing.

Instead, he squeezed out a twisted and painful expression, letting out an extremely shrill roar:

"Ahhh—! I can't control my weight! It's so heavy! My body is going to burst!"

This roar, full of despair and madness, sounded in everyone's ears.

It perfectly confirmed the rumors of "talent secondary mutation out of control."

Before the roar faded, Su Ming not only didn't retreat, but his left leg kicked hard against the ground, and his whole body lunged forward instead of backing down!

Borrowing his own terrifying weight of nearly one ton, he abandoned all defense.

Relying purely on beast-like physical instinct, he delivered a headbutt with absolutely no technique.

Fiercely, savagely, he smashed into the robot's broad chest armor!

"Crack—Boom!"

The raw iron-grade skull and the high-strength alloy armor capable of withstanding the full impact of a Tier 3 beast.

Had the most primitive, most savage physical collision!

Sparks flew!

In everyone's horrified gaze, that indestructible armor on the robot's chest...

...was actually smashed into a shocking dent by Su Ming's head!

"Warning! Chest armor damaged by 17%! Core energy module suffered shock!"

The mechanical beast's center of gravity was instantly lost, and the palm blade that was slashing towards Su Ming's head was deflected.

It stumbled back three big steps, each step leaving a cracked, deep pit in the ground!

Just at the moment the robot stumbled back.

A silver stream of light finally arrived!

Shen Qingci appeared suddenly at the robot's side, her eyes full of shock.

At this moment, only one thought remained in her mind.

This teenager... is he still human?

Which one of you is the monster?!

...

Never mind that for now. Her movements didn't hesitate in the slightest.

[Geng Metal Blade Bone] Silver light flashed, and the cold edge Tang sword in her hand let out a clear, sharp ring.

Following the edge of the dent smashed by his head, seizing the opportunity, she was about to stab hard!

Target—Core engine!

However, just as the tip of the blade was about to touch the armor.

Hum!

An invisible ripple rippled through the void.

Immediately after, a calm voice, yet carrying an unquestionable majesty...

...exploded in everyone's ears like a decree from a god.

"Seal!"
