Chapter 29 True Colors

The dust settled, revealing the truth.

A heavy-duty mechanical left arm, several times thicker than a normal arm, was tightly gripping Rune's fist. The high-density Tiberium alloy was dark and cold, exuding the color of steel.

Han Xiao, who was controlling this giant mechanical arm, was already wearing Viper · Modified, a streamlined, close-fitting black mech that bulged with muscles like a human body.

Everyone was stunned.

"What is that?"

Han Xiao's right hand, which wasn't wearing the mechanical arm, suddenly grabbed Rune's arm. Rune tried to break free, but found that Han Xiao's strength had become equal to his, and he couldn't break free for a moment, becoming shocked.

Viper · Modified provided an additional eighty points of strength and nearly fifty points of agility. Han Xiao's current strength, agility, and endurance were comparable to any martial artist below level 60!

Rune was still measuring the gap between the two sides as before, and was caught off guard.

Han Xiao's left heavy-duty mechanical arm roared, heavily hammering Rune's head, directly pressing Rune's head into the ground, continuously pounding like a pile driver, the large pit in the ground rapidly expanding.

[Note: Big fist, punch your brain!]

Since he was acting alone, Han Xiao carried all his trump cards in his equipment bag, disassembling the heavy-duty mechanical arm into parts for easy carrying. Moreover, assembly was very simple and quick, and it could be quickly formed when facing encounters.

Seeing Rune being rubbed against the ground, Vanessa was shocked and angry, and rushed up. Han Xiao didn't dodge or evade, and fought Vanessa in close combat. His fists and feet contained great power, and the ground cracked inch by inch.

Detachment Wave was a mid-range means, with insufficient lethality, and it didn't hurt or itch when it hit the mech. Viper · Modified's powerful mode steadily gained the upper hand.

The two were amazingly agile, and the fight was like lightning and flint. In the eyes of others, they were two blurred figures intertwined with each other. Only the constant loud noises and the environment collapsed by the aftermath could make people know how dangerous the two were.

The black fist repeatedly struck Vanessa's face several times, causing her nose to bleed.

At the same time, Rune finally pulled himself out of the ground, his head bleeding, and roared as he pounced. However, halfway through, Han Xiao suddenly swung his fist and swept Vanessa aside, his right hand took off the Ghost Gauss Sniper Rifle folded and embedded on his back, and aimed at Rune from afar.

The dark muzzle exuded an even more dangerous aura than before.

Rune's hairs stood on end!

Han Xiao slammed down on the trigger.

[Will Burning]!

[Lethal Critical Hit]!

[Overload]!

This shot was his most powerful attack to date!

Not only the effect of active skills, but passive skills made the shooting power, critical hit rate, and mechanical affinity stronger, and the gun had also been strengthened to the best extent at the moment. Everything was a level higher than before!

This was the combat power of a maxed-out skill!

Bang--

A huge cavity appeared in Rune's chest, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

[You have dealt 1942 damage to Rune (lv58)] (Damage reduction has been calculated)

Extremely close to two thousand points of damage!

You should know that Rune's health was only between four thousand and five thousand points!

One shot, almost half a bar of health!

Rune knelt on the ground, his whole body limp and twitching. He raised his head and looked directly at Han Xiao, his eyes full of horror and disbelief.

"You seem to have said that you want to use my brains to paint the floor?" Under the cold mask, a mechanical sound with no emotional fluctuations came out.

Han Xiao pressed Rune on the ground with his right hand, and the mechanical arm of his left hand heavily hammered his head. Rune was beaten into a weak and paralyzed state by this shot, and lost his strength to protect his body. Steel kissed his skull again and again, tearing his skin, breaking his bones, and turning his flesh into mincemeat.

The splashing blood stained the ground and mechanical arm red.

Han Xiao bounced off his legs, jumped high with the mechanical arm, and smashed vertically on the spot. The ground made a loud noise, dust sprayed into the sky, and red and white splashed everywhere. Rune's eyes gradually lost their luster.

[You killed Rune (lv58), you gained 175000 experience!]

[【One Shot Fatal】Specialty, unlock progress 43/50]

"Rune--" Vanessa screamed, full of shrillness, resentment, and rage, and then...she turned and ran.

Black Ghost was unexpectedly strong. She didn't want to die, and only by surviving could she have a chance to take revenge.

"So isn't it good to be alive." Han Xiao shook his head, unbuckled the heavy-duty mechanical arm, and the huge steel arm fell to the ground with a bang. Han Xiao called out the command, and the armor on the left and right sides of his ribs suddenly slid open, revealing a row of dense small holes, spraying dozens of slender arrow-shaped black shadows, which landed around Vanessa and detonated one after another, emitting a harsh high-frequency sonic wave.

These were all miniature versions of the burst grenades. Han Xiao made them into smaller arrow shapes, and then added a simple launching module to the Viper · Modified, which could release this portable and practical control weapon.

The burst grenade's judgment attribute was endurance. Although Vanessa was a martial artist, she couldn't bear dozens of burst grenades and fell to the ground in pain.

After a few steps, Han Xiao activated the electric thermal cutting gauntlets on both hands, grabbed Vanessa's eye sockets, and then turned on the "Sunworm" flamethrower on his wrist. In the screams and scorching smell, Vanessa quickly turned into a piece of charcoal. Vanessa's struggle and counterattack before her death were all blocked by the armor of Viper · Modified.

Han Xiao let go of his hand, allowing the corpse to fall, and turned on various scanning modules of the mech. Through smell analysis, the outline of Yin Yao was outlined on the scanning panel. At this time, he was lying in the area where the burst grenade exploded, twitching in pain.

Yin Yao had been frightened by Han Xiao. Only a few months had passed since the last fight, and Black Ghost had reached a height that stunned him. He regretted taking this order, and soon had the intention of retreating, but very unluckyly, when he was secretly running away, he was overturned by the aftermath of the burst.

"Saved me some effort." Han Xiao broke Yin Yao's hands and feet, then took out a micro locator and brutally pierced it into Yin Yao's body. Then he slapped him unconscious, nodded with satisfaction, "This way, he won't get lost."

The whole scene was in a mess, gathering a large number of Overmeira onlookers, who were all terrified and frightened by Han Xiao's cruel methods.

The resurrected players stood in the distance, their throats dry.

"This...so strong!" Zhu Yuxuan exclaimed, she had recorded all the combat footage just now, and had a hunch that this material would definitely be popular.

Black Ghost had never shown off his mech. All along, the powerful performances they had seen were just the tip of the iceberg. This was his true strength!

No, maybe Black Ghost was hiding more things.

The Bamboo Rain Guild became excited, feeling that they had discovered information that others didn't know. Among all the players, only they had encountered this sudden plot, and Zhu Yuxuan recorded the whole process, excitedly.

Lagos looked terrified, his upper and lower teeth chattering, and his legs trembling uncontrollably. The three powerhouses he had placed high hopes on were easily killed. If Black Ghost's original combat power was used, Rune and the three would definitely be sure of success, but who knew that he was hiding such a terrifying trump card!

"How is this possible? Rune and the three are all top-notch superhumans, long-established legends. I asked professionals, how could Black Ghost's strength easily kill them!" Lagos couldn't believe it.

Without support, facing the murderous Black Ghost, Lagos's body went limp, and regret could not describe his mood.

Han Xiao walked to Lagos, patted Lagos on the shoulder, and said softly, "I have spared you once."

"You can't kill me!" Lagos said sternly, "I am the person in charge sent by the Main Family. If you kill me, the Main Family..."

Before he finished speaking.

Swish - the sharp blade cut across his neck, and blood gently sprinkled.

The attack was without hesitation.

Lagos widened his eyes, covered his neck and fell down, the temperature was lost with the blood, the leaking trachea hissed, and he looked up at Han Xiao in disbelief.

Han Xiao looked at the Main Family executives who were taken aback, played with the blood-stained blade, and said calmly, "Do you have any objections?"
