Chapter 100 The Limit

Ding ding ding...!!

Rain-like impacts exploded on Li Cheng颐's body.

All the red needles, as if piercing an extremely hard alloy plate, left only shallow pinholes on the surface of the flower scale armor.

Before long, the needle rain weakened and stopped.

Chi!

Li Cheng颐 pulled out the golden sword pinning him down and stood up.

Tiny purple fragments fell from his body, the remains of the Wisteria Flower Scale Armor.

"It's reached its limit?"

He lowered his head and noticed the clue. The flower scale armor was slowly breaking, falling into countless fragments.

The fragments were like sand, scattered in mid-air, shattering into countless wisteria petals.

Before the petals could completely fall to the ground, they faded and disappeared, as if illusory.

Just then, countless red needles floated up again above his head, coalescing, turning into a new needle rain, about to fall again.

This time, the red light emitted by the red needles was far weaker than before, and the feeling it gave Li Cheng頤 was not as dangerous as before. But similarly, he no longer had the Wisteria Flower Scale Armor.

"It seems I can only go this far."

Li Cheng颐's body shimmered with purple light, enveloped in countless rays, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a golden hue.

The golden light dissipated, and countless sword orchid petals fluttered and separated, revealing his current attire.

The Wisteria Flower Scale Armor had transformed into a set of golden armor, full of thorns, exuding majesty.

The head of the armor resembled some kind of insect, and apart from the eyes, the face was a ferocious, sharp maw.

Behind him, a jagged golden sword wheel slowly rotated with his body's movements.

In terms of sheer bulk, the Sword Orchid Scale Armor appeared heavier and larger than the Wisteria Flower Armor.

"Looking forward to the next encounter."

Li Cheng颐 looked up at the red needle rain in mid-air, turned abruptly, and charged towards the wall. Under the stunned gaze of the brother and sister beside him, he crashed through the wall and disappeared into the dust.

This time, from beginning to end, the red needle rain in the sky never fell again.

Soon, with Li Cheng颐's disappearance, the red needles flew back to their original position like a school of fish.

Before long, all the red needles flew back into the scabbard behind Ding Zao Cheng.

His face was unsightly. He slowly drew out the red knife with his backhand.

There was a soft hissing sound.

The blade was unsheathed, revealing the countless strange knife body made up of fine red needles.

At this time, at the very top of this strange knife body, some of the red needles had obviously become dull in color, with traces of damage at the tips.

Ding Zao Cheng's face twitched.

"If I couldn't leave him with the first strike, there would be no chance later." He looked at Kong Si Chen beside him.

"Why didn't you attack?"

"I don't have Tian Yan (Heavenly Eye) to coordinate, and I'm at least six hundred meters away, without a weapon module, how am I supposed to fight?" Kong Si Chen was speechless. His rank was far inferior to Ding Zao Cheng's. This guy had clearly missed his own attack, and yet he turned around and questioned him for not attacking.

If he had the ability to attack, would he have waited until now?

"Besides, I'm a Fusionist, not like you pure-bloods," Kong Si Chen said coldly.

"..." Ding Zao Cheng stopped talking. He had misjudged the hardness of the other party's armor, causing his flying instrument to be damaged. The repair fee this time would be a lot of money again....

"It would have been better to call in a sniper," Kong Si Chen snorted coldly and turned to leave immediately.

He had already seen the figure of the purple-black modified body through Tian Yan (Heavenly Eye).

He already had the clues, and the next step was to track it down. There was no need for him to stay here and take the heat.

Ding Zao Cheng stood there with a team, looking at the damaged fine needles on the red knife. He didn't explain.

Others didn't know, but he was very clear that the red needle rain he had just released, in fact, the killing power of each fine needle in the first strike was equivalent to the hit power of an ordinary sniper rifle bullet.

Dozens of red needles falling, the power was equivalent to dozens of snipers aiming at one person at the same time.

The power of that could be seen from the ground at the scene.

All the stone floors were shattered, creating shallow pits at least ten centimeters deep.

The resulting whistling sound could even cause sonic stinging to people within a certain range.

But even with such killing power, he couldn't keep that person.

Tricky...

Sighing, Ding Zao Cheng's eyes narrowed.

"The loss can't be borne by me alone. That person has been injured by me and won't commit another crime in a short time. Retreat! Report to the association!"

"Yes!"

A group of police officers responded solemnly.

Half an hour later.

New Century Building, Hong Jin Company.

It only took Li Cheng颐 half an hour to take off the flower scale armor from the city's dead corners where there was no surveillance, and then take a taxi to the company.

In the past half hour, he really summarized his actions this time.

The basic goals were achieved.

First: Erase all traces of Xu Zhong Sheng's grasp. Well, he wiped out both the person and the machine. In fact, he really didn't intend to kill anyone, but unfortunately that guy was one thing on the surface and another behind his back. Under the heat of the moment, he shook his hand and killed him.

Of course, now that he had killed him, there was no need to say anything.

Second: He was planning to test the power of the Mechanic's flying instrument this time.

From Ding Ning, a Mechanic, he learned that flying instruments were divided into many levels and categories, and the killing power of different levels also varied greatly.

The upper limit of the killing power of the flying instrument is determined by the energy module.

Therefore, the energy aura of flying instruments of different levels is also different, generally divided into four categories: blue, red, white, and other colors.

Blue is the use of ordinary flying instrument energy batteries. Used alone, this module, even if the flying instrument is equipped with rainbow iron, its killing power is at most similar to that of an ordinary sniper rifle g357.

g257 is one of the standard military firearms that can be easily found on the Yi Country website.

Li Cheng颐 had already inquired about the power test and had a clear understanding of it.

The red energy module uses a battery fuel physical hybrid propulsion system called the Glass Module.

This type of energy module is usually pre-compressed like a spring, accumulating a relatively large amount of potential energy. After starting the special mode, it can explode instantly, erupting with considerable power.

But the disadvantage is that the power of the second strike drops sharply, and it is also easy to cause damage to the flying instrument.

This is also the reason why Li Cheng颐 was not worried about the second strike after blocking the first strike.

Of course, everything in front was within his expectations, and being locked by the red needle rain was also his prior speculation.

After all, it would be strange if those Mechanics from the association didn't go berserk after he played assassination so unscrupulously in the city.

The only thing Li Cheng颐 didn't expect was that the other party only dispatched one Mechanic to chase him.

He had previously thought that several people might take action together, but he didn't expect the situation to be simpler than he thought.

Inside the office.

Cindy La stood behind his desk, holding a black printed painting in both hands, hanging it on the white wall.

It was a sketch of a stag's head with white lines on a black background.

The antlers were flamboyant and gorgeous, and a kind of wildness and primitive beauty of the jungle was revealed from the painting.

"Can I have some quiet now?" After hanging up the painting, Cindy La exhaled, turned around and sat down, looking at Li Cheng颐 sitting on the sofa opposite him.

"My friend said, yes." Li Cheng颐 sat upright and answered seriously. After everything was over, he returned to his original calm and composed appearance.

"He is very brave, really very brave." Cindy La sighed. He reached out and took two bottles of Bien from a small refrigerator on the side, and casually threw one to the opposite side.

"Although Suiyang City is not a big city, it is still protected by the association and blocked by the Silent Fortress. The Silent Fortress's city Tian Yan (Heavenly Eye), coordinated with a high-level Mechanic, if they really want to kill him, it won't be difficult."

"It depends on whether it's worth it." Li Cheng颐 said. "Personally, I think a Zheng Jia Yu is not enough to alarm this level of security."

"Adding a Xu Zhong Sheng may not be the case," Cindy La said, "So, don't let him show his face in a short time."

"I don't know anything, but he is very smart and will definitely know the danger of showing his face again next time," Li Cheng颐 replied.

To be precise, killing Zheng Jia Yu and several bodyguards only brought in the deputy director of the Security Bureau and some ordinary police officers to surround him.

At that time, the police's vigilance and danger to him had not increased too much.

But after he killed Xu Zhong Sheng, the situation immediately changed.

"After Xu Zhong Sheng's death, Deputy Director Ding Zao Cheng learned of the situation and immediately decided to apply for the city Tian Yan (Heavenly Eye), and use his flying instrument to remotely snipe the murderer.

A Zheng Jia Yu is nothing, but Xu Zhong Sheng is different. His father is a member of the association, and he himself is a person in Suiyang. The most important thing is that he is one of the cores of the Xu family."

"The Xu family's disciples are scattered in all walks of life in Suiyang, and many of them hold important positions. The core first is naturally Xu Zhen Chang, the master of the Xu family.

He is a member of the association and a high-level Mechanic. Of course, the level cannot determine the killing power. What really determines the upper limit of the Mechanic's killing power is the flying instrument itself."

Cindy La deliberately analyzed the current situation.

"Yes... Brother Ding Ning also said that what determines the destructive power of the Mechanic is not the strength of his mental power, but the flying instrument itself." Li Cheng颐 nodded slightly. "And this is Suiyang..."

"Yes, this is Suiyang. There are no rare resources here to maintain the various maintenance and consumption of high-level flying instruments. And it is in the city, and it is not allowed to load high-power weapon modules. The power of the flying instrument, the upper limit is the red Glass module. This calculation is really accurate..." Cindy La sighed.

He didn't remember how many times he had sighed.

"Boss, you should be happier." Li Cheng颐 comforted. "After all, my friend is a person who repays kindness."

"Hehe... High-power modules are not allowed in the city, but it is different outside. It is best to be careful." Cindy La reminded. If you die, don't mention anything about repaying kindness.

"Definitely understand!" Li Cheng颐 nodded. This time, he tested the upper limit of the power of the city Mechanic's flying instrument. At the same time, he also knew the defensive limit of the Wisteria Flower Scale Armor superimposed with the solid flower language. He also cleaned up the dangerous element of Xu Zhong Sheng. And absorbed enough evil thoughts to complete the evolution of the Sword Orchid in one fell swoop.

It was simply a win-win situation.

Although he had caused a little more trouble, it was really worthwhile.

"So, you have seen the killing power of the Mechanic, are you still planning to buy a flying instrument?" Cindy La changed the topic and suddenly asked.

"This..." Li Cheng颐 hesitated.

Dealing with dead corners and eliminating hostile forces requires team cooperation. In other words, he would have to build his own team sooner or later.

And in the team, if he wants to absorb evil thoughts, he must have a position to go to the front line at close range.

Looking back now, Mechanic is not very suitable for him.

"Apart from Mechanics, there are only modified people. However, there is a faction among Mechanics called the Pure Blood faction, which you may be interested in. It is the route taken by Ding Zao Cheng today." Cindy La suggested.

"Pure Blood faction?"

"As the name suggests, the so-called pure blood is..."

Cindy La was about to explain when the door was gently knocked.

"Boss, there is a reply from the Dragon Beard Gate." Secretary Pencil Eyebrow reminded through the door.
