Chapter 60: Steel and Flesh (Part III)

Iron Man and War Machine were locked in a fierce battle with the experimental subject high above the sky, while the surrounding crowds had long since begun to evacuate. The central area of the entire Stark Expo had descended into utter chaos, where the privileged and the common folk were no different at all, both screaming as they fled.

After all, those mechanical soldiers from Hammer Industries had no concept of collateral damage, and the heavy firepower in their hands poured relentlessly toward the test subject in the air.

Meanwhile, Yin Shaoming gently scooped up Lu Xueer. High in the air, the bald figure continued to smash down with his heavy hammer. Anticipating this ferocious and tyrannical attack, Yin Shaoming had already sensed it coming; with just a slight stamp of his foot, he instantly sidestepped and moved away.

Could it be that this person, having been brought back to life this time, had come to help humanity once more? But thinking about it, that was simply an impossible thing to happen.

Upon receiving the news, Yu Dachuan, Wu Daoqing, and others successively dropped what they were doing and summoned Xu Daoling and Nan Wuxiang once again. The reason this location was chosen was that Yu Dachuan believed that, as a vital human witness for giving early warning about the Spirit Abyss incident, summoning Nan Wuxiang to answer questions should fall under the jurisdiction of the Law Enforcement Hall.

He figured that the Celestial Master Mansion must have investigated this batch of Colorful Cloud Crystals long ago, only holding back from making a move beforehand to catch him off guard, which was why they struck ten days ago to prevent him from preparing an excuse in advance. Yet he truly had been prepared; if Ku Ci sent people to verify it at this moment, they would certainly discover that the Colorful Cloud Crystals had been lost by the Danhui Sect ten days ago.

Amidst the diffuse starlight, an armored figure rushed out. His health pool was running low; judging by the percentage of his health bar, only about 30% remained. At the same time, he raised a long spear and fiercely thrust it toward Ye Kong.

This barrage of questioning came like a volley of rapid-fire cannonballs, lecturing the Guild Master of Wrath Armor to the point of speechlessness. Moreover, Su Mengyao's voice was loud enough for everyone else to hear clearly, each of them sensing her unwavering determination.

Lu Qi's heartbeat grew louder and louder, his vision becoming increasingly blurry. At this moment, Twilight found that a faint fusion force was leaking from the container opening within Lu Qi's body. Immediately afterward, the fusion force on Lu Qi's body began to drift upward.

System Prompt: You have triggered the ordinary-grade storyline "The Gray Mist Village Chief's Request". Quest Requirements: Bring back the forester's personal item, the Moonstone, and hand it over to the Gray Mist Village Chief, Clement.

At noon the next day, when Annie found Uunqi, he was sitting upright in a newly repaired room, gazing with focused eyes as he flipped through numerous ancient tomes shrouded in faint, hazy glows. Those tomes took various forms—long scrolls, fragments, magic crystals, or ancient mural carvings etched onto slate tablets.

Although training academies still existed along the border, the training programs were limited to using fusion force to enhance physical combat techniques or extending the attack range and power of weapon users. Simply put, they were cannon fodder, though they could still provide a slight delaying effect against the enemy.

Such a strong sense of déjà vu... Rolonna thought to herself from the side, wanting to quietly slip past this bizarre big guy. She had instinctively sensed that if she were to strike up a conversation with this strange muscle man, it would undoubtedly bring trouble upon herself.

In the surviving records of ancient mythological legends held solely by the Church of Flame, there was also a strict hierarchical classification for those gods who were looked up to, envied, revered, and feared by all mortals.

What tempted Liu Shiquan the most was that the military had entirely ceded the civilian market to Galaxy Industries. The active military establishment of China numbered little more than 2.5 million; even factoring in the 1.8 million armed police personnel, it only totaled around 3 to 4 million, whereas the civilian population numbered over a billion. It was crystal clear which of the two markets held the more lucrative profits.

"So that means. I can finish you off right now?" Sandro took a step back. A flowing light immediately covered his staff.

The Daoist in red robes questioned him, growing increasingly impatient now. His gaze fixed on the elderly man surnamed Nan, with a thread of dangerous intent flickering within it.

Fortunately, at that very moment, a powerful force surged from the leather armor behind him, causing the fat wizard to stagger sideways. Amidst two crisp, clanging rings echoing by his ear, he turned his head and noticed that the crude iron weapon that had been lunging at him was still vibrating incessantly on the ground, except it had now been snapped into four pieces.

If that were not the case, he and his entire team would die an even more horrific death. Gordon's methods were far more notorious than his actual strength.

The two major regions of the mortal realm, the Central Continent and the Endless Ocean, shared a vast, boundless area of intersection—none other than that unbroken coastline stretching for countless billions of miles.

"How is it? Are they all back?" In a shadowy corner, a Black-Clad Guard cast a gaze around at his subordinates, the Brocade-Clad Guards.

After making the proper arrangements, Wang Airen continued to recuperate in the hospital, while Wang Jianjia began secretly investigating the truth. As for Tang Ye, he was still immersed in the joy of acquiring a lord's thumb ring.

Meanwhile, the ground of the Samsara Salvation Grand Array flickered with rippling white light. This white light surged into the scroll, and soon after, the Asura of Hunger seemed to be dragged out from within by these white rays.

Qin Muge's face darkened instantly. Although she had known all along that running into Ye Xunhuan was purely a coincidence, she never expected that this bastard had simply been dumped there by someone.

All the humans around were gathered in groups of two or three. Looking closely, one person in each group was holding a plate while the others tossed items onto it.

Because Jiang Nan saw the name "Xue Muqing" written on the cards attached to the flowers clutched tightly in their hands.

Even seeing Ye Xunhuan walk in from outside, Jian Yurong's face remained completely devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Jiang Nan thought of another solution, but upon catching sight of Murong Shishi's furious glare, he wisely kept his mouth shut.

For a moment, Mu Shuyi did not know what she ought to say either, and directly lapsed into silence.

Unlike before, with the enemy hero's three crystal towers on the verge of respawning, they no longer stayed to guard the base, instead choosing to move outward beyond the base.
