088. Encirclement

  Encirclement

  Plop...

  Blood and flesh spttered all over him, the still squirming remnants reeking of gunpowder.

  Qiu Ran stared bnkly ahead, too terrified to feel fear, standing still as the bald girl who walked out of the bio-pod turned her gaze towards her.

  Li Aozi's pupils tracted sharply, golden circles lighting up in his eyes.

  Gravity Pressure!

  The tter instantly colpsed to the ground, her cervical vertebra fractured, her head dangling like a ball on her chest. Her gaze then turowards Li Aozi.

  【Warning! You have been locked on by Omega energy [Directed Explosion]!】

  Buzz—

  Li Aozi's cells seemed to be shoved into a microwave, his body pressure slightly swelling.

  【Judging... your main attribute [Charisma] overwhelmingly suppresses the target.】

  【You have evaded the attack.】

  Swish!

  Li Aozi instantly dashed forward, sweeping his to smash the bald girl to the ground, her sickly face immediately spttering blood.

  【Based on your attributes, you have gaihe following information】

  【Third Geion Camity Armament— Serial Number ES-3-022】

  Li Aozi didn't bother to look at the rest of the information.

  Bang!

  He stomped on her chest, ribs instantly pierg her lungs and colpsing inward.

  She y on the ground, her bidly raising her head, seemingly unaware of the pain, still tilting her head to aim at Li Aozi.

  Pop!

  Li Aozi's instantly shot out, pierg through her eye socket. He rushed frabbed the , and kneed her face hard.

  His arms suddenly deformed, and two bck-red neural tendrils burst from his palms, pierg the girl's body.

  The special ability pods on Li Aozi's forearms opened, cleverly cealed by his trench coat.

  【You promote its evolution by repeatedly taining the same Omega energy. You also choose to crush the Omega energy gene sequeo feed other Omega energies.】

  With 480 experience points credited, the girl's body fell heavily, her red-bck eyes dimming like a scrapped mae.

  Li Aozi didn't rex his vigince. His heart raced, adrenaline surging, making it hard to calm his mind.

  If it weren't for the buffs Snoplied earlier, which allowed him to respond to these Camity Armaments...

  If it weren't for Nomi ag as the scout ahead...

  If his attributes weren't high enough...

  Never before had Li Aozi felt his breathing so heavy.

  "Nomi... Nomi..."

  Qiu Ran's legs gave out, kneeling on the ground. As an ordinary rural woman, she had never witnessed such a shog se.

  Just now, Nomi was bickering and f her, that Rose Army soldier who didn't even flinch when hit by a burst of bullets...

  Nomi's head y on the ground, less than half a meter away from her.

  Her remaining half brain and disfigured face were unreizable.

  "Nomi... dead?"

  "Not yet." Li Aozi g the team list.

  Nomi's health was at the bottom, but she was still alive.

  Bang bang bang!

  The doors of three bio-pods burst open simultaneously. Li Aozi's bat instincts kicked in, dodging an ionic shock. The high-energy psma pulse grazed his temple, instantly vaporizing a few strands of hair.

  "Save Nomi's head!"

  Li Aozi only said this, then pulled out the , straighte into a spear, and threw it.

  The , propelled by thirty times gravity acceleration, struck like diviribution, instantly pinning the psma-firing Camity Armament boy to the wall.

  Li Aozi followed closely, pg his hand on the boy's face, his palm ejeg neural tendrils:

  【Ability Pod Activated】

  【Omega energy extracted from the target】: [Ionic Shock]

  This was a oa-ega energy, with no potential for development. Li Aozi retracted the neural tendrils. The Camity Armament boy, drained of Omega energy, lowered his head, the red-b his eyes fading further.

  "Kill... me..."

  The boy murmured, tears streaming from his eyes.

  Li Aozi, expressionless, applied Omega energy to his head.

  【Directed Explosion】

  Pop!

  The psma exploded, staining half the wall with filth.

  Swish—

  A boy, half a head taller than Li Aozi, with pitch-bck skin and a skinny, bamboo-like frame, silently appeared nearby at a high spot. He lowered his head, staring at Li Aozi with his deformed ied triangur head.

  Taking advantage of Li Aozi dealing with the psma Omega user, his figure flickered, instantly moving behind Li Aozi. Space rippled, and he raised a person-high slender arm, deformed and sprouting tless abnormal bone spikes, aiming at Li Aozi's head.

  Thud!

  The sound of breaking air exposed the teleporter's whereabouts. Li Aozi stepped back, stomping on the boy's foot, using the momentum to leap into the air, flipping over the boy's back. His left arm scythed around the boy's neck, his right hand aimed at the deformed brain, his palm crag with fierce blue psma.

  【Ionic Shock】

  Bang!

  The psma shot into the void as the tall boy teleported away, barely nding before Li Aozi charged at him again.

  Li Aozi fired three psma shots with his right hand, f the boy to teleport short distances. Each teleportation caused air vibrations that added severe strain to his nky body.

  After four secutive teleports, the tall boy's skin had split into numerous cracks. The high temperature and pressure differences from the air vibrations quickly dehydrated him.

  This was a on problem with teleportation abilities— after some training, the paths could be predicted, and the ability's strain was too great.

  Li Aozi grabbed a handful of air with his left hand, activated 【Directed Explosion】, and used the explosive impact to accelerate and ge direid-air, dodging the boy's bone spike attack.

  At the same time, Li Aozi's gaze focused, and he used gravity defle to sm the boy into the wall, breaking his bones.

  To prevent the boy from telep away, neural tendrils shot out from Li Aozi's palms, pierg the boy's eye sockets.

  【Sever Life】

  Ability Pod Activated!

  Life and Omega energy were extracted together. Li Aozi's eyes turned red-bck with ferocity. The Camity Armament boy, stripped of pain, stiffened, opening his mouth as if to scream.

  His muscles visibly shrank, his skin peeling like old aint. His already deformed ied triangur head became a skeletal, wooden-skinned mummy, drained of life, Omega energy, and soul.

  【You extracted a target's life. You choose to refis abilities and personality.】

  【Refi plete】

  【You obtained [Human Amber] (small)— be used to craft equipment of "Exquisite Masterpiece" quality her.】

  【You obtained [Hollow Soul] (small)— be used to heal soul damage, craft "Exquisite Masterpiece" quality equipment, or serve as a casting material for bizarre spells.】

  【Ability Pod Activated】

  During molecur disiion and reformation, signifit air vibrations occur in non-vacuum enviros.

  【Current Development Level】: Sensory, with Omega energy ption rate at— 110%

  "Li Aozi!"

  Qiu Ran, ing Nomi's half head in her coat, screamed in horror at the remaining 8 bio-pods:

  "There are still—"

  Bang!

  Another bio-pod burst open, and out walked a figure pletely different from the other Camity Armaments.

  He was a medium-built sixteen-year-old boy, 1.78 meters tall, with well-defined muscles, looking lean and strong. His face was pletely ruined, wearing a full-ce breathing mask, only his left red-bck eye visible.

  Uhe other Camity Armaments, the boy's left arm muscle was removed, repced with a sheathed long bde, growing like a tree branch towards his shoulder.

  He raised his head and immediately looked at Li Aozi.

  Unsciously, Li Aozi was also attracted by his single eye. For a moment, he felt a tremor in his heart. Both stood in a standoff position, and wheiced the boy's right hand on the sword hilt, he instantly uood where that feeling came from.

  【Soul Carved Sword Saint】

  Zing—

  The fierce bde whipped up yers of sonis. The boy with the sword, like a seasoned warrior fed in a thousand battles, instantly charged at Li Aozi, the cold light of the bde fshing, cutting ly and sharply past Li Aozi's sleeve.

  Almost hurting him.

  "He actually has the same Omega energy as me."

  Li Aozi slightly dodged, activated 【Iterative Movement】, his body disiing at the molecur level, pulling away, arriving beside the previous psma Omega user's corpse, pulling out the , and swinging it at the boy.

  Whoosh-pop!

  The missed for the first time, the boy's body like a phantom, pletely seeing through Li Aozi's whip.

  The boy sheathed his sword, lowered his body, dodged the 's strike, and suddenly jumped against the wall, dodging the psma shots like he had the help of ghosts and gods.

  In the air, he held the long bde, using the left arm sheath to deflect Li Aozi's , his airborne body eerily retreating, 'tally' dodging Li Aozi's neural tendrils and the attached 【Sever Life】.

  Then, the bde was uhed!

  g—

  In the moment, an invisible soul pressure burst out, the Camity Armament boy like a battlefield ghost, the long bde stabbing down at Li Aozi's neck from a vicious angle.

  Intercepting Ssh!

  "Kneel."

  Li Aozi said coldly:

  "I was just testing Omega energy, didn't use gravity, really gave you face!"

  Pop!

  The boy's body was instantly thrown to the ground, his spine breaking into four ses, his neck fractured, the single eye popped out, rolling to Li Aozi's feet, crushed under his foot.

  No matter how superb your skills and teiques, as long as you're a pary being, they're useless in front of gravity.
