33: The way to death!
Lin Yu looked at the man in front of him, whose face was contorted in pain.
He calmed down; it wasn't some act of revenge or special behavior.
Just a little boy's jealousy.
That was all.
In that case, it wasn't worth paying attention to.
He released his hand, allowing Chen Rui to clutch his already deformed right hand as he staggered backward.
"Lin Yu!"
Su Qingxue's voice was filled with fear and trembling. She finally ran closer, looking at the gruesome state of Chen Rui's hand, then at the unharmed Lin Yu, her mind a blank.
She wanted to question him, but realized she had no standing to do so.
Chen Rui had attacked first.
Chen Rui had used the power of a professional.
Yet, it was Chen Rui himself who had broken his hand.
How... how was this possible?
Lin Yu ignored the two of them, turned, and prepared to go upstairs.
For him, this farce was over.
However, the extreme humiliation and intense pain completely ignited the flame of jealousy in Chen Rui's heart.
Useless!
A good-for-nothing!
A good-for-nothing who had wasted five years, been abandoned by his family, and lived on loans!
How dare he! How could he!
"I'll kill you!!!"
Chen Rui let out a beast-like roar.
He ignored the piercing pain from his right hand, clenched his left hand into a fist, and his body sank slightly. The concrete ground beneath his feet even showed a faint crack due to the convergence of his power.
The full power of a Level 30 [Rock Warrior] erupted without reservation at this moment!
An earthy yellow light completely enveloped his left arm—that was the materialized manifestation of his Strength attribute pushed to its limit!
"Chen Rui, no!"
Su Qingxue let out a desperate shriek.
She tried to grab him, but Chen Rui was too fast!
A punch, carrying all his dignity and rage, shot out like a cannonball, heading straight for Lin Yu's back!
This punch was enough to blast a large hole through a reinforced concrete wall!
He wanted this good-for-nothing to die!
Lin Yu's steps halted.
But he did not turn his head.
Bang!
A dull, extreme thud.
Chen Rui's fist landed squarely on Lin Yu's back.
However, the expected scene of blood and gore did not occur.
Lin Yu's body remained motionless.
It was as if what had been struck was not a person's back, but a mountain that had stood there since ancient times.
The madness on Chen Rui's face solidified.
He felt as if his fist had struck an unshakeable divine iron.
Then, a force a hundred times more violent than the one he had unleashed surged back along his fist!
"Bang!!"
Another loud bang, but this time, it was the sound of bones exploding.
Chen Rui's left arm, from his fist to his elbow, instantly exploded into a mist of blood!
And that wasn't all!
The terrifying recoil continued unabated, rushing into his body.
"Crack! Crack!"
His already fractured right hand was also completely shattered under the impact of this force!
"Ah ah ah ah—!!!"
A shrill scream finally erupted.
Chen Rui flew backward over ten meters like a kite with a broken string, slamming heavily into a load-bearing pillar, then sliding to the ground, like a pile of mud.
Both of his arms had completely disappeared, leaving only two bloody, mangled wounds, from which blood gushed like a spring.
Su Qingxue stood dumbfounded, looking at Chen Rui, who lay in a pool of blood, his fate unknown. Then she looked at the figure still facing away from her, completely unharmed, and felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen.
Dead?
Or crippled?
She didn't know.
She only knew that her proud, level 30 elite professional boyfriend had attacked a "good-for-nothing" with all his might... and ended up crippling himself.
It was a horror story beyond her comprehension.
At this moment, Lin Yu finally turned around slowly.
The calm on his face had vanished, replaced by a faint, yet chilling, hint of anger.
"If not for Qingxue growing up with me since childhood, this move of yours would have been a path to death."
A path to death!
He wasn't joking.
He had truly harbored murderous intent!
Su Qingxue trembled all over, a fear originating from the depths of her soul making her almost collapse to the ground.
She looked at Lin Yu, this familiar yet strange man, and for the first time, felt that she had never truly known him.
Lin Yu no longer looked at Chen Rui on the ground.
Such an ant was not worth his time.
But he needed a warning.
A warning to silence all the petty individuals.
He raised his right hand, palm upward.
[Multiplication Card]!
He did not use the terrifying million-fold amplification.
It wasn't necessary for dealing with such a character.
In an instant, the effects of fourteen [Multiplication Card]s stacked in his spiritual sea.
Sixteen thousand three hundred and eighty-four times!
A gray card appeared in his palm.
[Lightning Bolt]!
Effect: Summons a weak lightning bolt, roughly equivalent in power to static electricity when taking off a sweater in winter.
But with this sixteen thousand three hundred and eighty-four-fold amplification, this useless card would display the power of a divine punishment!
"Buzz—"
There was no earth-shattering roar, only a tremor that seemed to come from the depths of space.
The next second.
In the entire underground parking lot, all the lights went out in an instant!
Replaced by an endless, blinding white light!
Thick electrical snakes, centered on Lin Yu's palm, spread wildly in all directions!
"Sizzle! Sizzle!"
The surveillance cameras installed in various corners burst into sparks the moment the electric light touched them, completely ruined!
"Beep beep beep—!!"
All the parked vehicles' alarms were triggered at the same time, emitting piercing shrieks!
But it only lasted for half a second.
"Puff! Puff! Puff!"
As the electric light swept across, all the alarm sounds abruptly ceased, the vehicles' electronic systems were instantly destroyed, plunging into a dead silence.
The entire parking lot turned into an ocean of lightning!
Su Qingxue was scared out of her wits by this apocalyptic scene. She shrieked, squatted down, covered her head with her hands, and her body trembled violently.
And in the center of this ocean of lightning, a main lightning bolt, thicker than a load-bearing pillar, condensed and formed!
It did not strike anyone.
Instead, carrying an aura of destruction, it fiercely slammed into the distant wall of the parking lot!
Boom!!!
A deafening roar that could shake down a building!
The entire building shook violently!
Smoke and dust filled the air, and gravel flew everywhere!
When the electric light dissipated and darkness once again enveloped the parking lot, only Lin Yu's figure still stood in place.
And, on the distant wall, that terrifying hole, over three meters in diameter, bottomless, with arcs of electricity still flickering around its edges!
Cold wind poured in from the hole, fluttering Lin Yu's clothes.
Su Qingxue slowly raised her head, looking through the lingering smoke and dust at the hole, and then at the unharmed Lin Yu.
She was stunned.
Completely dumbfounded.
What was going on?
What on earth was going on?
Lin Yu... hadn't he already wasted five years?
Wasn't he that good-for-nothing who indulged in making trash cards and willingly degenerated?
This... this monster who could blast through the parking lot wall with a single strike, who was he?
