411: Chapter 411 Powerful Individuals at the Level of Natural Disasters
Top floor of the Noah Building.
The piercing gunshots and alarms had long since grown hoarse, replaced by an even more violent roar.
The air was thick with the pungent smell of a mixture of concrete dust, scorched wires, and flesh and blood.
Two indistinct figures shuttled and collided at high speed within the partitioned office spaces layer by layer.
Bang!
One of the figures was fiercely smashed into a load-bearing wall on the side.
The reinforced concrete wall burst open with a human-shaped hole in response.
But the figure did not stop at all; its toes kicked off the twisted steel bars, and it once again transformed into a roaring gust of wind and rushed out.
Boom!
Another figure wearing a white mask followed closely behind. With a sweeping whip kick, the remaining wall was severed at the waist.
Countless pieces of cement, accompanied by broken cables and ventilation pipes, crashed down like a rainstorm.
Sonic booms, flashes of fire, and air waves exploded one after another in this messy ruin.
In the eyes of the onlookers, that was simply not a human battle.
It was two incomprehensible natural disasters tearing and colliding with each other!
Every time they clashed, it made the top-floor structure of this skyscraper emit a painful groan.
The damaged fire pipes sprayed water mist haphazardly.
They were soon evaporated by the scorching air wave, adding a bit more haziness to this chaotic and dark battlefield.
That figure with a more robust build had a violent and direct fighting style.
He completely ignored the whistling cement fragments and office cabinet wreckage smashing over.
He let them crash into his body, making dull, loud noises, yet they could not shake him in the slightest.
Sometimes he even used his fists and kicks directly to blast the incoming concrete blocks into fragments all over the sky.
The entire person was practically like a rampaging humanoid Tyrannosaurus.
And the other figure wearing a tactical mask was more flexible and versatile.
His body seemed to be shrouded in an invisible medium, which could skillfully deflect and divert most of the frontal impact.
While engaging in a thrilling close-combat battle with his opponent, he could also effortlessly manipulate psychokinesis.
With a turn of his gaze and a wave of his hand, he treated all movable objects around him as his own weapons.
Shattered glass, twisted steel pipes, whole rows of office desks and chairs...
All transformed into lethal shells, bombarding the opponent from all directions.
To others, the aftermath of this battle was devastating.
Splashing stones and metal fragments shot around like grenades.
A strong shockwave swept past, making everyone unsteady on their feet.
In the darkness and chaos, screams rose one after another, and no one dared to check whether their companions were dead or alive.
Just finding cover to hide and saving one's life in the shockwave exhausted all strength.
Even the restless monsters in the gray fog had long since hidden deeper into the darkness at this moment.
They only dared to reveal pairs of glowing eyes from the gaps in the broken walls, watching the center of the corridor in panic.
In their cognition, those two violently fighting figures were the most terrifying monsters in this space.
"Holy crap..."
Officer Zhou Liang and several other Special Investigation Team members hid behind a relatively intact shear wall, watching everything in front of them, their Adam's apples rolling unceasingly.
As for the security guard slumped on the ground, he had been completely scared silly, with a dull gaze and a wide-open mouth, yet he could not make any sound.
Choi Suyoung's forehead was scratched by flying gravel, and blood was streaming down.
She desperately hugged the unconscious Majima Goro in her arms, trying to use her frail body to block the next potential wave of impact for him.
As ordinary people, when had they ever seen such an exaggerated battle.
Cheng Jiashu stood alone in the front, letting the tiny gravel hit his body.
His gaze was tightly locked on those two battling figures.
He could tell that the figure wearing the white ghost mask was intentionally or unintentionally leading the battlefield away from their direction.
On the other side, the members of the Noah Organization were even more disheveled, scurrying about on the ground like mice.
"Ouch!"
In the chaos, two people bumped heads.
"You fucking blind?!"
Xu Hao cursed impatiently, raising his head only to see Chen Chen.
"Gang Leader?"
"A-Hao?"
Both of them were stunned, and then tacitly shrank behind a collapsed concrete pillar.
Xu Hao's face turned pale as he slightly poked out his head to observe.
Liu Yu, who had been following behind all along, had long been blown away by the air wave to some corner, and perhaps had already become a corpse buried under the ruins.
At this moment, he could no longer care about admiring his own boss.
He only prayed wildly in his heart for these two big shots to quickly withdraw their Divine Ability and not implicate him, an innocent bystander.
Chen Chen trembled all over like a rattle-drum, looking at the two figures fighting deep into the floor, his eyes filled with horror.
Was this still human?
As the leader of the Red Tiger Gang, he had also witnessed some powerful individuals with special abilities.
He once believed that as long as preparations were thorough, hundreds of ordinary Gang members holding firearms could pile up and kill an A-rank ability user to death.
But now, witnessing this scene comparable to immortals fighting with his own eyes, he realized how ridiculous his previous thoughts were.
In front of such monsters, human-wave tactics were nothing more than a suicidal farce.
Everyone hid behind the cover they had found, looking at the two figures in panic, hoping that the further away they were from themselves, the better.
They were like the most efficient demolition team.
The only difference was that a demolition team needed to use crushers and hydraulic hammers to demolish buildings.
While these two monsters used only their own bodies.
Amidst the ruins, cables hung in the air, wall panels peeled off in large areas, resembling a doomsday battlefield.
Everywhere were broken office utensils, piled together with cement and plaster debris, seeming to form undulating piles of garbage.
The two figures collided again in this environment.
Crack!
A palm wind containing Spiral Energy brushed past Minister Luo Lie's cheek.
The fierce Knife-hand penetrated the defense, finally causing the black tactical mask on his face to be unable to withstand it and crack open.
Revealing a face with furrowed brows and a majestic look, short black hair dancing wildly in the air wave.
The "psychokinetic coat" covering the surface of his body flickered with a faint white light, forming an invisible force field invisible to the naked eye.
The huge kinetic energy that barely touched his skin was instantly absorbed, deflected, and completely eliminated.
Unlike the inefficient application method of releasing psychokinesis outward to form an air wall.
This technique of attaching psychokinesis to the body surface while acting on muscles and nerves.
In addition to its defensive and buffering effects, it could also cause one's own strength and agility to skyrocket severalfold, equivalent to putting on a set of individual powered armor.
This also gave him the capital to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the humanoid Tyrannosaurus before him.
Minister Luo Lie's soles felt as if they were smeared with oil, sliding back several meters while casually waving his hand.
Half a broken prefabricated cement slab whistled and smashed toward the pursuing Fang Cheng.
Bang!
But it was blasted into pieces in mid-air by Fang Cheng with a straight punch.
"You still won't admit you are White Owl?"
Minister Luo Lie glared, his eyes wide. That highly penetrating Knife-hand just now had left lingering fears in his heart.
"Whether I am White Owl or not doesn't matter."
Fang Cheng shook off the powder on his fist and approached quickly:
"What matters is whether you have the ability to withstand my fists."
"Hmph!"
Minister Luo Lie was chuckled with anger, retreating while raising his hand to block Fang Cheng's endless offensive.
"You'd better hope to defeat me before I recover my energy, otherwise in the next move, I will definitely make you lose your head!"
Hearing this, Fang Cheng's gaze behind the mask instantly became even more fervent:
"Is that so? Then I'm looking forward to it."
He was extremely excited, seeming to enjoy this pure collision of strength; he was simply a born battle maniac.
Minister Luo Lie was slightly startled.
Whoosh—
Fang Cheng did not give him any chance to daze; his figure turned into a whirlwind and instantly disappeared before his eyes.
The next moment, he had appeared behind Minister Luo Lie like a ghost, throwing a heavy punch straight at his heart.
But Minister Luo Lie's back seemed to have grown eyes; almost the moment Fang Cheng disappeared, the soles of his feet exerted sudden force.
Along with the floor tiles bursting, his entire person shot forward like an arrow off a bowstring.
That punch hitting his back seemed to have limited damage; instead, it became an assistance for him to leap forward.
"You fell for it!"
In mid-air, Minister Luo Lie turned around abruptly, his hands' ten fingers spread wide.
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!
The ruins surrounding like mountains seemed to be endowed with life.
Thousands of cement fragments, steel bars, glass shards, computer parts...
All the sundries instantly floated up, like a reversed avalanche.
Following that, they turned into streams of gray torrents, sweeping toward Fang Cheng in the center from all directions!
"Well timed!"
Fang Cheng's gaze narrowed; instead of retreating, he advanced.
His arms waved rapidly, turning into countless blurred fist shadows.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—
Dense explosions suddenly erupted, resembling a heavy machine gun roaring wildly in a narrow space.
Countless gravel and sundries were blasted into dust the moment they contacted his fists, exploding into clusters of gray fireworks in front of him.
However, the torrent of sundries was simply too much and too dense, like a storm composed of hail, endless.
At the same time, an invisible force field quietly enveloped down.
Fang Cheng only felt that the surrounding air was instantly sucked dry.
As if located in the eye of the storm, a strong sense of stagnation bound his limbs, making even the speed of his punches a bit slower.
This moment of sluggishness was already fatal.
In the blink of an eye, a huge sphere composed of countless construction wastes rapidly took shape, shockingly wrapping Fang Cheng completely inside.
Minister Luo Lie hovered in the air, his hands clutching empty space from a distance.
Under his control, the huge sphere continuously compressed and rotated inward, making a teeth-aching "creaking" sound.
As if to crush the person inside into meat paste alive.
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly. He hadn't used his Domain ability earlier, pretending to have excessive mental exhaustion and choosing clumsy close-quarters hand-to-hand combat.
Just to lure the opponent into this carefully prepared trap.
In fact, his Domain had been deployed all along.
It was just to save energy that he didn't use the "Thousand Blade Storm" again.
But even in a silent state, having deployed his Domain, he could still control all objects around him.
Any subtle movement could not escape his perception power amplified to the limit.
Controlling these tens of thousands of sundries was much easier than controlling spatial fissures.
"Here, I am like a god..."
Minister Luo Lie muttered to himself.
However, his proud words weren't finished yet.
Inside the huge sphere that had been compressed to the extreme, a trace of reddish-gold firelight suddenly burst out.
Followed by the second point, the third point...
The sphere began to tremble violently, and countless cracks appeared on the surface, as if something inside was expanding crazily.
Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss—
Countless dazzling golden light arrows instantly pierced the entire sphere full of holes.
That light was even more dazzling than lightning!
Rumble—
With a deafening loud noise, the garbage ball exploded with a roar!
The monstrous air wave turned into a violent shockwave sweeping around, blowing away the surrounding ruins once more.
In the center of the flame explosion, a figure slowly walked out.
The clothes on his body had long turned to ashes.
Only the white ghost mask on his face remained in the raging flames, looking increasingly ferocious.
The reddish-gold flames, like living creatures, licked his bronze skin, outlining sculptural, muscular lines that were majestic and perfect.
Every inch was filled with explosive strength, like a god of war stepping out of the fires of Hell.
"Hah!"
Opening his Tyrant Body, Fang Cheng let out a low roar.
Those eyes burning with flames firmly locked onto Minister Luo Lie in mid-air.
His legs bent slightly, and the ground beneath his feet cracked abruptly.
His entire person, like a red-hot cannonball, shot up into the sky.
There was only one target.
That was this so-called controller of the Domain and the Inner World!
"How is this possible?"
Minister Luo Lie saw this, his pupils contracting sharply.
The opponent actually broke through his Domain suppression with just his Physical Body!
A sense of threat several times stronger than before enveloped his heart.
He waved both hands simultaneously, instantly urging the Domain to its full power again.
He must kill this monster!
For A-Jun's revenge, and also to save the precarious face of himself and the Dongdu Branch!
A strong whirlwind suddenly formed around him.
Countless gravel and metal pieces were swept into it, forming a high-speed rotating, continuously expanding defense belt.
At the same time, Minister Luo Lie pressed his hands down fiercely.
The ruins of the entire floor seemed to respond to his will, turning into a gray death storm composed of steel and cement, pouncing toward Fang Cheng.
Facing this overwhelming attack, Fang Cheng did not slow down at all, treating his own body as the strongest weapon.
Those ordinary concrete blocks crashed onto his skin burning with red flames, like pebbles hitting a heavily armored tank, instantly bursting into powder.
And those larger obstacles, such as prefabricated cement slabs and server cabinets.
Were directly blasted to pieces in mid-air by his even more violent fists and kicks.
The figure burning with flames continuously broke through the Domain force field, getting faster and closer!
In the blink of an eye, Fang Cheng had rushed in front of Minister Luo Lie!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Fists carrying raging flames poured onto the whirlwind shrouding Minister Luo Lie like a meteor shower without reservation.
That defense belt composed of sundries was defeated and torn apart in the blink of an eye.
Following that, the violent fist edge penetrated through and smashed fiercely onto Minister Luo Lie's last layer of psychokinetic coat.
Minister Luo Lie was beaten back step by step by this matchless strength, blood spilling from his mouth.
The psychokinetic coat flickered uncertainly, as if it would collapse at any time, yet he still gritted his teeth and struggled to support it.
On the other side of the floor, in the corner of the ruins.
Zhuo Feng had a dull look on his face, muttering to himself:
"Is this White Owl?"
"No wonder... Ghost, Captain Chen Rui, Scorpion, Jia Liang... they all died so miserably..."
Thinking that he had once clamored to arrest the other party with his own hands, a chill instantly shot straight from his spine to his skull.
Zhuo Feng couldn't help secretly rejoicing that he hadn't met this murderer beforehand.
Otherwise, he was afraid he would also be beaten into meat paste.
"Well fought! Beautifully fought..."
Station Chief Feng Jincai hid behind a pillar, the corners of his mouth unable to help curling upward.
He could vaguely feel that Jia Sangyi's mental fluctuations were becoming stronger and stronger.
The huge destruction caused by the battle before him was creating excellent conditions for Jia Sangyi's Breakthrough.
As long as Jia Sangyi successfully came out of seclusion, Station Chief Feng Jincai's future would be bright.
As for the crimson eye being damaged as a result, the organization would inevitably hold people accountable afterward...
So what?
Comparing the value of a living S-rank expert to a dead object, those old fogey Board of Directors should be very clear.
Suddenly, Station Chief Feng Jincai's heart skipped a beat, feeling a trace of something wrong.
The surrounding light seemed to have become dimmer.
No!
It wasn't dimming, but rather infected by an ominous red light.
He suddenly raised his head, looking toward the blasted main control room.
Only to see that flesh and tissue that was originally only wriggling inside the gap was now like vines with life, expanding and spreading frantically outward.
They covered the walls and coiled around the steel bars.
At an unimaginable speed, they were transforming this ruin made of steel and cement into a huge flesh-and-blood nest.
