Chapter 75: Demon Eye (Part ½)

Snake Seven originally wanted to borrow force from the closed vehicle door and had reacted accordingly. But the electronically controlled metal door opened noiselessly without a sound, giving him no opportunity whatsoever. A sheet of empty air was behind him and the force that pierced against his stomach continued to press against him until he rammed against the ground.

The exoskeleton armor collided with the ground, grinding out a stream of sparks. Snake Seven was left with protecting Wall Five with all his strength as the high-speed traveling transport vehicle rapidly pulled the distance.

Snake Seven glared at the taillights of the distance transport vehicle. His eyes were bloodshot as he raised his right arm. He launched a miniature EMP grenade in the next moment. It flew high in the air, tracing accurately a parabola and landing in front of the transport vehicle.

A muffled explosion sounded out. Snake Seven accurately controlled and directed a stream of gamma rays to penetrate the area where the shielding was weakest in the transport vehicle, frying practically all its electronic gear in an instant.

The vehicle suddenly lost control, went perpendicular, and flipped over. The five-ton vehicle maintained its inertia and slid several dozens of meters before stopping.

Fist Two’s figure had already flown out from the vehicle during its slide. Under the ingenious control of the propulsion device, Fist Two ended up standing on top of the stopped vehicle.

Snake Seven was not happy at all to see the familiar figure. Instead, a deep chill rose penetratingly from the bottom of his heart.

Fist Two’s face had turned deathly gray at this time. His life force was completely exhausted, but before his eyes was the “metal wheat kernel” propped up by countless fine threads. The kernel burned with the color of blood and approached endlessly closer towards Fist Two’s face. It stuffed itself into Fist Two’s empty eye socket and radiated with a devilish and distorted red glow.

“I’ll screw you back eight generations!” cursed Snake Seven from a distance of several dozens of meters away.

The young man original intention was to charge over there, but right now Wall Five’s air was growing weaker and weaker. Blood flowed endlessly from his eyes yet again. He had pumped up his energy just then, and he had received intense disturbing forces. These jolted and shook his frail internal organs. He kept coughing, finding it hard to stop. Snake Seven could see with just a glance that Wall Five was on the verge of dying.

Snake Seven injected Wall Five with the life-prolonging drug deployed within his exoskeleton armor. He howled within the communications channel: “Brain One. Anyone. Anyone?”

Brain One bone-chilling voice responded: “Blade Three will be in position in seven seconds. Vehicle No. One will arrive in fifteen seconds. Snake Seven, be on standby for now.”

“Screw your standby……”

“Cough.”

A coughing sound was heard within the communications channel, causing the entire channel to suddenly turn silent. What had been Fist Two’s wavelength had already changed to a different voice.

“What a pleasant surprise…… There’s actually originum. Quantum Corporation’s newest walkers are already using originum as their backup power source? It’s nearly forty percent in purity. This is excellent, excellent.”

“Excellent your mother!” spat back Snake Seven when he opened his mouth.

Brain One was about to do a last-minute encryption on their network to sidestep this frequency when the voice mentioned a name: “Mr. Yan. I know you’re here.”

Yan Yongbo’s restrained voice cut in after a second of silence: “Jack. What the hell are you up to!?”

“Showing you the marvels of the Dynamo Core in this form!”

Dark red flames exploded from the eyes, the nostrils, and the mouth of Fist Two as Jack was speaking. It rapidly formed together to spread all around Fist Two’s body.

“I am extremely apologetic for such a thing to happen. I should have used more peaceful methods, but I have no choice; I am far too hungry. Do you remember? You had used my previous body as bait to make that shot with the marvelous and peerless particle cannon. It would have been nothing were it not for my power supply being cut off. I was forced to look elsewhere to amend this.”
