Chapter 454 - Have You No Shame (1/2)
Naturally, Qin Feng’s consciousness had noticed these people in the shadows.
He let out a smirk.
These people were smart to not leap out and rob them. Well, even if they did that, Qin Feng would not mind killing more today. He could absorb their internal energy this way.
A moment later, the aircraft had departed.
The aptitude users that were hiding in the dark saw the machineries and got quite curious about them. After all, they were late when they got here—they only got to witness Qin Feng taking out the wolves, not how he bombarded the Deca Turtles with the aircraft.
The aircraft was not able to fly into the City of Death. So, as usual, Qin Feng parked it in the factory again before heading back to his villa with Bai Li to rest.
It was then, Qin Feng’s communicator started ringing.
It was Chen Xiang.
“Commander, Longchuan City has fallen!”
“What?” Qin Feng was surprised to hear the news.
If he remembered it correctly, in the timeline before he was reborned, Longchuan City would still be standing by this time. How could it fall to the hands of the enemies?”
That was the city where most of the important figures in the authorities lived!
“What’s going on? Didn’t they have an A-tier aptitude user? How did the city get attacked? And has the A-tier aptitude user not arrived yet?” Qin Feng asked all of his questions in one go.
Chen Xiang shrugged and answered, “Cui Lian was there but he was murdered!”
“What?!”
This time, Qin Feng was completely shocked!
Chen Xiang, not intending to beat around the bush, continued on, “They used that energy ray that killed Gao Yukang. And Cui Lian was too careless. He floated to the air and tried to use his consciousness on them, asking them to surrender. Yet, they took him down in one coordinated shot…”
Qin Feng was so speechless after hearing this!
Was Cui Lian retarded?!
It was quite common knowledge by now that Gao Yukang died this way. And now he was giving them the chance to pull the same killing blow on him?!
Or perhaps, Cui Lian did not know who Gao Yukang was—most A-tier aptitude users usually did not care about the death of one C-tier.
Nonetheless, the Grans’ technology was quite impressive.
Qin Feng remembered that in the timeline before he was reborn, Cui Lian was able to sneak into the Floating City and murder a lot of people there. And yet now, why had he become so thick and reckless?
Perhaps, the one that changed it all was Qin Feng.
Qin Feng was a D-tier aptitude user. And yet, he was able to stop the Grans’ invasion.
This gave the public a general perception of the Grans’ strength—weaker than a D-tier.
At the same time, Cui Lian was an A-tier aptitude user. He could obliterate an army of C-tiers. As such, he was not afraid of the Grans that were supposedly so much weaker than him.
Thus… he was shot down by the Grans in one go.
“So, how does the Human Alliance intend to handle this?” Qin Feng asked.
“I don’t know. However, I think even the A-tiers would not dare to come anymore. So, the alliance would most probably use the human wave attack?”
Using the human wave strategy would mean that there would be a lot of people dying in the battle. This meant that the alliance was desperate.
“Or, they could just give them the land?”
This meant that the alliance would just allow the Grans to settle in Longchuan while the humans moved out of the city.
To the humans, there was not much loss if they did this. After all, Longchuan was just a city on the frontlines. And they had a lot of other cities like this one.
However, these were not something Qin Feng needed to worry about. Instead, he was thinking about the Floating City.
The Floating City… this was such an attractive place. It had a mobile fortress and powerful machineries. If he could acquire them, his personal strength might not increase by a lot but his personal army here could benefit from them.
They could literally go anywhere with no bounds.
Back then, due to Cui Lian being still around, Qin Feng did not intend to lay his hands on the Floating City. However, now with Cui Lian gone, no one was going to take down the Floating City.
