Chapter 251: The Chase IV (2/2)

Looking at the time, Ye Chong had taken three minutes to reach where he was now. If all went well, he would reach Coxcomb in another 10 minutes. Once he entered Coxcomb, he would be safe. Coxcomb was now armed to the teeth. Moreover, with its new engines and firepower, escape would not be too difficult.

Ye Chong thought as he ran without slowing down.

Another wall was upon him, and Ye Chong punched straight into it without hesitation.

Crack! A soft sound, followed by a crack that spreaded out like a spiderweb.

Ye Chong paused. The first 18 walls he dismantled were all crushed with his fists. Ye Chong’s punches may look like normal, but they were powered by energy manipulation techniques from the Lan Family of September, and were very powerful. More importantly, using this technique to break through walls would not be too noisy.

However, this wall only yielded slightly with a crack. The expected hole in the wall was not to be.

Ye Chong reached forward and lightly knocked on the wall. The composite material came crumbling down like raindrops. Ye Chong was startled, and quickly began to move. His hands were everywhere, catching all the crumbling pieces that fell from the wall.

He caught the pieces, then placed them softly on the ground. Ye Chong’s figure moved in a blur.

The entire process was silent. Ye Chong was thankful that his hands were fast enough, or the pieces falling to the ground would have alerted the people in the house. However, even with Ye Chong’s speed, the crumbling pieces strained him to his limit.

The entire process was over in less than 10 seconds, but Ye Chong was already drenched in sweat.

Luckily, he did not miss any of the pieces.

Ye Chong breathed in deeply a few times and calmed his breathing. The situation was over quickly, but it had drained Ye Chong a lot. It was even more tiring than breaking through the first 18 walls.

Looking beyond the wall, however, Ye Chong groaned.

It was an alloy wall! A solid alloy wall was sandwiched between two walls made of average composite material. This kind of security would only be available in powerful families. Since they spent this much effort in walls, it was only natural that there would be guards in the house.

This was a problem for Ye Chong. Now was not a good time for battle. Ye Chong believed that if his punch was slightly louder, he would now be overcome by an overwhelming swarm of mechs.

However, according to Shang’s route, he had to pass through this place. Ye Chong ran to a window, carefully peering outside. There were many mechs outside, way more than he expected. There were also a few unfamiliar models. Ye Chong quickly retreated from the window.

It looked like the inhabitants beyond the wall must be someone influential and powerful. While he did not know exactly who it was, the fact was clear as day.

Ye Chong was troubled.

However, there was no time to hesitate. In fact, he had no choice. If he did not reach Coxcomb in 10 minutes, then he would surely die here.

In another battlefield, the action was also heating up.

The atmosphere inside Coxcomb was tense. Everyone stayed in the control room. Little Rock sat solemnly behind the photon processor, data flowing out of the machine like a waterfall. If Ye Chong was there, he must thought it looked very familiar.

Soon, the information displayed before Little Rock stopped refreshing, and transformed into a hive-like network. Little Rock went into action - he must help Mu do some calculations. Little Rock’s talent in computations was approved by Mu. To win Mu’s approval and work alongside him, showed just how impressive Little Rock’s achievements were in this field.

Days of working together allowed Little Rock and Mu to cooperate rather seamlessly. They communicated through the photon processor without speaking a word. The entire control room was silent, and tension was thick. Lian Yue could only watch helplessly, no longer in the mood for his own research. Even if he wanted to, all of Coxcomb’s photon processor were now used by Mu to defend against this super powerful Maverick.

Lian Yue paced around the room anxiously.

Zhu Ling sat quietly with her eyes closed, deep in meditation. Beside her, Overwing stood like a guardian angel.

Confrontation was imminent!
