The man spoke as he swept his weapon forward.
*Tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk, tuk…*
Bullets poured out, sweeping across the desk in front of Bai Ye, sending countless wood chips and paper scraps flying.
"Damn it, it's a two-way mission!"
A two-way mission referred to a scenario where opposing tasks appeared simultaneously for both the sin and order factions. Bai Ye's mission was to seize, while the opponent's was to protect!
In such situations, there was no room for negotiation; one had to either abandon the mission or face certain death.
Bai Ye ducked his head. When the opponent ran out of bullets, he quickly pulled out an 82-2 model all-plastic handless grenade, yanked the pin, and threw it with force, shouting, "You think I don't have grenades?!"
Seeing the grenade fly out from behind the desk, the man scrambled to flee.
*Boom!*
The explosion sent a shockwave that lifted the man into the air, slamming him hard onto the ground.
Seizing the opportunity, Bai Ye emerged from behind the desk, firing his pulse dual guns while simultaneously scanning.
Biological scan initiated…
Biological scan ended…
Adam McGregor (Chosen One) (Health Status): A Chosen One from the world of biotechnology.
Strength: 91
Speed: 88
Stamina: 119
Spirit: 89
Intelligence: 16
Weakness Detection: As a Chosen One from the biotechnology world, he possesses a naturally robust physique, but it is unstable. Excessive physical exertion will incur the side effects of gene mutation.
Held Items (Incomplete): Star Sword (Weapon), Creamy Nougat (Item) /
Abilities (Incomplete): Gene Gate Liberation (Psionic Power)
A thought flashed through Bai Ye's mind: *Damn, I've run into a master!*
Adam's body attribute values were high. His strength, speed, and spirit were slightly weaker than Bai Ye's, but the difference of ten to twenty points was negligible. His stamina attribute was even higher than Bai Ye's.
However, the Weakness Detection was no longer a question mark; it had, to his pleasant surprise, revealed Adam's weakness.
But Bai Ye felt that this weakness would be difficult to exploit.
Adam's physical attributes were not significantly related to the enhancements gained after entering the World Battlefield. The so-called biotechnology world referred to a technologically advanced future world where development leaned towards biological gene research and development.
Chosen Ones from this world typically underwent gene modification, possessing inherent advantages in physical attributes. They usually entered the World Battlefield with physical attributes four to five times that of other Chosen Ones, making it a relatively advantageous world to hail from.
Gene modifications often came with sequelae. Based on the description from Weakness Detection, Bai Ye deduced that Adam might not be adept at prolonged combat, or more specifically, his body might experience problems during protracted battles.
Therefore, to exploit this weakness, Bai Ye would need to engage in a war of attrition with Adam.
But…
Bai Ye couldn't help but grumble, "His stamina is 119, higher than mine. Dragging him down means I'll be exhausted as hell too!"
Since prolonged combat was not an option, he had to resort to a decisive kill!
Meanwhile, Adam was also cursing.
He hid behind a pillar, waiting for Bai Ye to run out of ammunition. However, the pulse dual guns did not require magazine changes; as long as the energy cells had power, they would automatically reload, and each reload took only 0.5 seconds. Adam couldn't find a window of opportunity during Bai Ye's reloading.
Gritting his teeth, Adam decided not to wait passively any longer. He pulled out a rhomboid metal shield and charged out from behind the pillar!
"Aargh!"
Adam roared as he brandished his shield and charged forward, blocking the beams and rapidly closing the distance to Bai Ye.
Shield Bash!
Upon reaching Bai Ye, Adam thrust his shield forward, intending to knock Bai Ye flying.
But…
With a clang, Adam's face contorted in astonishment.
His most prideful strength…
Had failed to budge his opponent!
Bai Ye stepped back half a step, then leaned his shoulder against the shield, effectively halting Adam's charge.
However, while Adam's strength was inferior to Bai Ye's, the difference was not substantial. Bai Ye could only hold his ground, not overpower Adam.
As the two strained, locked in a stalemate for half a minute, Bai Ye's gaze fell upon Adam's feet. He suddenly hooked a leg!
With a bang, Adam tumbled to the ground.
Bai Ye drew his famed blade, Bloodthirsty, and thrust it down forcefully, saying, "You need to use your brain even when fighting."
But at that moment, Adam suddenly shouted, "Garurumon!"
As Adam's words fell, Bai Ye suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back. He was then sent flying backward, only to quickly steady himself with one hand on the ground.
Turning his head, he saw a blue and white wolf-like Beast Companion standing beside Adam.
"You think I don't have a Beast Companion?" Bai Ye pulled out a Beast Companion Ball and tossed it forward, shouting, "Goodra, Dragon Pulse!"
The Beast Companion Ball landed and then erupted in white light. Goodra emerged from the light, opened its mouth, and a white radiance began to gather within. Then…
*Boom!*
A white beam of light erupted from Goodra's mouth.
Garurumon immediately lowered its head, grabbed Adam, and leaped to the side.
The next instant, the beam of light grazed the ground, shattering it and creating a sunken trench two meters wide. Then…
*Boom!*
The Dragon Pulse struck the wall at the end, and a tremendous roar resounded once more. The wall then collapsed, utterly pulverized.
On the other side, after evading the attack, Garurumon set Adam down. It then opened its massive maw and spewed out a torrent of blue flames, engulfing Goodra.
Without Bai Ye's command, Goodra didn't launch a premature attack. Instead, it crossed its arms, blocking the flames, and then looked towards Bai Ye.
Bai Ye said, "Take it down!"
"Yaa~"
Receiving the order, Goodra chirped and immediately charged towards Garurumon. Bai Ye also moved at this moment, sprinting towards Adam, then leaping into the air for a kick.
Beast Companion against Beast Companion, master against master!
Seeing Bai Ye soar towards him, Adam quickly raised his shield again.
*Clang!*
Bai Ye's kick met the shield, and the immense force sent Adam stumbling back several steps. After barely stabilizing himself, Adam quickly tapped the surface of his shield.
"Prism Edge!"
The rhomboid shield emitted a mechanical whirring sound. Cracks appeared around the shield's edge, and four palm-sized rhomboid blades were ejected.
The four rhomboid blades, as if remotely controlled, hovered in the air for a moment. Their centers suddenly glowed red, and then they shot directly towards Bai Ye.
