306 Cry Baby ? (1/2)
Lin Chen lay on the floor motionlessly with the odor of the unbearable stench permeating the place. His entire body was struck numb by the anesthetics. He could not move a single inch despite how fast he was.
The man, with bolts of electricity running across his body, slid Lin Chen a condescending glare, ”Are you Lin Chen of Jiangmen City? I have heard great things about you. I heard that you are pretty fast. However, you can never be faster than the speed of light no matter how fast you are.”
Lin Chen's brows knitted together tightly. He only managed to avoid the opponent's attacks by using his superb premonition skills. Before each attack, Lin Chen had already sensed it coming and managed to avoid it narrowly by making the first move.
However, there was no room for escape in a large-scale attack exhibited just now.
That man did not leave after taking the government apostles down. With his hand grabbing onto the bundle of exposed electrical cables, numerous jolts of electricity exploded all over the place. His entire body was illuminated as if he were a light bulb.
A few minutes later, Lin Chen had already begun recovering some of his mobility. The opponent only used a small amount of current which explained the minor injuries received.
Just when Lin Chen's fingers were trembling in the air, the man's voice once again rang in the air, ”I am warning you … it's better that you do not move …”
With his eyes glued on that man, Lin Chen tried communicating with him, ”Who are you? Why are you stealing electricity?”
”You can call me Mike. You know that I'm just here for a little bit of electricity. You don't have to worry. I'll be gone soon.”
Lin Chen retorted, ”You won't be able to escape. My reinforcements are arriving already!”
Mike cackled and replied, ”Haven't you already realized that your extreme speed is meaningless to me? My power is the nemesis of yours.”
A muscle in Lin Chen's jaw twitched but he chose to remain silent.
However, Lin Chen's silence somehow excited Mike as he began announcing impassionedly, ”You Chinese are truly too conservative. I've heard that many countries have already begun constructing a wide-scale apostle army. Meanwhile, your current government continues to adopt such a strict position towards this! You will lag behind everyone!”
At this moment, a black shadow emerged directly from the ground. It was like a spirit that could travel across solid matters.
The electric currents running through Mike's body began flickering when he noticed the appearance of this unexpected guest before asking, ”Who are you? What power do you have?”
Finally, he had a clear view of this mysterious figure. It was a man, a headless man.
Lin Chen, who remained sprawled across the floor, took a good look at Zhao Yao's appearance and suppressed a scream, ”No Brain? Why is he suddenly here?”
Zhao Yao swept his eyes across the bunker and understood the exact situation instantly. With his headless body positioned towards Mike, he asked in a raspy voice, ”You are the one stealing electricity?”
Mike smiled amiably when he noticed the anger in Zhao Yao's voice. The flickering on him intensified as he continued absorbing more electricity before replying, ”What's wrong? You seem pretty angry. Don't tell me you are interested in a fight against me?” Mike was more than confident now that he was fully charged with electricity.
Zhao Yao maintained his cool and replied in that same voice, ”it is not considered a fight when it is one-sided.”
At the same time, all his supercats had already turned extremely agitated.
”It's that guy!” Matcha roared with his finger dangling in his direction, ”We don't have to abide by the rules when we are facing a scum like him. We will take him on all at once and destroy him!”
The smile evaporated from Mike's face when he heard Zhao Yao's smug response. Immediately, beams of light shot out of his eyes.
”Stupid fellow, you are simply …”
The next moment, he had already collapsed to the floor, bawling in pain. Firstly, blood was oozing from the numerous cuts on his face. During the timefreeze, Matcha began his onslaught of scratch at six times his normal speed.
