What would you do if you suddenly gained Superman's powers?
Beat up Batman first?
But there's no Batman in the real world!
"First, I have to ensure my own safety."...
"Screw you! Even if there's some trickery involved, I'll take it. In the face of strength, all schemes and tricks are just paper tigers."
It's just Sajir. I'll deal with Terence first, then I'll deal with you.
Terence's hideouts can be said to be spread throughout the Western world, with locations not only in Britain but also in other countries.
In more remote locations, Chitose can easily take care of things with a small missile; if it's in a busy area, Chitose will simply use her physical strength to attack.
For example, that riverside villa on the Thames in England, Chitose fell directly from the roof, and with punches and kicks, the entire villa was destroyed and turned into an unfinished building.
In each place, the thousand-year-old will not stay for more than a minute.
Even if the local authorities receive a call to the police, by the time they arrive, all they can do is clean up the mess and find absolutely no clues.
"Sir, this is the last place."
Chitose said with some concern.
He had spent most of the day following the locations mentioned by Sajir, but had basically come up with nothing.
If blowing up a few villas and burning some calligraphy and paintings counts, then at most it was just venting a tiny bit of anger in my heart.
But that wasn't enough. What they wanted was to capture Terence alive, find out the whole story, and then eliminate him completely.
Gao Ang was also a little tired, mentally tired.
This is even more disgusting than hide-and-seek; at least hide-and-seek has a general area to cover.
Good heavens, Terence's hideouts are all over the Western world, on land, at sea, and even in bunkers.
The last place they visited was a bunker-like structure.
This bunker is located near the Mediterranean Sea and is similar to the underwater sanatorium in Lamovic, Saudi Arabia; it is a semi-submersible structure.
The thousand-year-old thermal imager was basically useless, and the bunker was so old that it didn't even have a modern network.
The lighting inside is also very retro, with kerosene lamps and mechanical elevators...
"Judging from this, this should be Terence's stronghold, right?"
Terence loves collecting things, and this semi-underground castle, with its retro design, perfectly suits his tastes.
"Sir, shall I just charge straight in?"
After a few times, Chitose also became addicted.
It has to be said that the allure of violent destruction can be truly addictive.
Even the Thousand-Year-Old bio-robot has fallen in love with this game.
"No rush. Take a look at their security system first. We've already raided several of their hideouts, so they couldn't have been unprepared. This castle looks very calm, which is very unusual. Maybe they've already prepared a trap for you inside."
"That makes sense... but are we really that afraid?"
Qian Sui asked a good question, one that left Gao Ang speechless.
Are you scared?
Logically speaking, we shouldn't be afraid.
The skeleton of the thousand-year-old was created through his meticulous work, and it can be said to have surpassed the level of aerospace materials.
"It's not that I'm afraid, but it's always better to be safe than sorry, understand?"
Gao Feng gave Qian Sui a long and earnest lecture, "Remember what happened in Death Valley? Your boss thought he was invincible, with no equal in the world. But one careless mistake and he suffered a great loss in that wretched place. So, you must always be cautious. And you know what that Sagiel said, right? He's seen your abilities, yet he still dared to boast that he had a way to deal with you. What does that mean? It means he has a trump card up his sleeve, a trump card that makes him fearless. Similarly, Terence is his rival, and he's been in charge of the Bethel family's research and dark departments. Can you say that someone like that doesn't have any tricks up his sleeve? Or that he'll just watch us destroy so many of his beloved possessions in such a short time and still calmly wait for us at this last hideout?"
YanjianbXwX.ojian. Gao Ang stretched out his right index finger and tapped the phone screen, actually tapping Qian Sui, "You're still too green. There's a saying, 'The human heart is unpredictable.' Don't be fooled by your intelligence; there are many tricks to dealing with people's hearts!"
Chitose seemed to understand but not quite, yet still asked, "So what do we do next?"
He was originally very opinionated, but after being scolded by Gao Ang, he suddenly lost his confidence.
"How many small missiles are left?"
"Five shots!"
"Give him a try, and see how he reacts!"
The more unusual something seems, the more careful you should be; that's how it's portrayed in TV dramas and movies.
Upon receiving the order, Chitose fired a small missile directly at a semi-open-air helipad by the sea.
He originally intended to build a garage, but found this helipad to be more suitable, as it housed a private business jet, a helicopter, and even a fuel vehicle.
Moreover, there's still a lot of fuel in the fuel vehicle; if it gets on fire, the noise will definitely be significant.
The small missile whistled past and plunged into the tarmac in a very short time.
Completely in accordance with Chisai's wishes, the fuel vehicle was ignited.
Three explosions of varying sizes rang out quickly, accompanied by billowing smoke and towering flames.
The powerful blast completely destroyed the semi-open helipad, turning it into a fully open area...
"Hey, those guys inside are bastards! We've been shitting on their necks, and they're not even protesting?"
To Gao Feng's surprise, even after the two planes were bombed, the people in the bunker remained silent.
The underwater part is fine, Chitose can't see it anyway, but there are clearly people on the surface, quite a few of them, and they all have weapons in their hands, yet they are so calm and collected.
"Terrence is a man of some standing, yet he's been beaten to his doorstep and is still swallowing his anger... He must be plotting something, right?"
Gao Feng was a little unsure, so he asked Qian Sui to try again.
"Your Majesty, increase the firepower and blast those guys upstairs!"
Gao Ang nodded to the few guys peeking out from inside the building on the ground. After receiving the order, Qian Sui immediately launched a small missile.
The missile successfully blew the group into the air, but Gao Ang was not happy because he was looking for Terence, not these small fry.
An accident occurred just as the second small missile exploded.
Suddenly, an unidentified tubular object shot out from underwater, its target being Chitose, who was floating a thousand meters in the air.
Without any prompting, Chitose saw the unidentified object.
His eyes flashed, and two beams of white light shot out, hitting the target squarely.
"There might be radar systems underwater, so you need to move quickly to avoid them locking onto your approximate location."
Gao Feng reminded Qian Sui of something. (The rest of the text appears to be garbled and unrelated.)
Chitose himself is not easy to detect, but when he launches small missiles, he leaves traces for those with ulterior motives.
In particular, small missiles do not have any special structure, are not stealthy or invisible, so it is normal for them to be detected.
Chitose did not persist. After destroying the unidentified weapon that had attacked him, he changed his position.
However, more tubular objects emerged from underwater, forming a surface like a large net, blocking Chitose's path.
He had only two ways to break through:
Either destroy all of these things, or keep flying upwards until these weapons run out of fuel...
Avoiding battle is definitely not his style. This time he's here for revenge, and he'd love to encounter an opponent who will fight back, because that would make the revenge even more exciting.
"One, two, three, four, five... eighteen!"
With a quick scan, Chitose determined the number of these weapons.
The eyes flashed nine times, a total of eighteen white lights, streaking across the sky in different directions.
"Boom boom boom..."
After eighteen loud bangs, the sky darkened.
"Sir, something's not right!"
"Yeah, I felt that too. The signal transmission is a bit unstable. Those weapons are graphite weapons, right?"
"It seems that these weapons don't have detonation devices installed in their warheads. It seems to be... something like a small drone, probably trying to force me to the ground."
While Qian Sui and Gao Ang were still discussing, the graphite began to tumble up and down with the air currents in the high sky, forming a "graphite layer" that surrounded Qian Sui in the air.
And within these graphite layers, there are other things, namely the small drones that Chitose just mentioned.
Actually, that wasn't a drone, but a signal transmitter.
Perhaps the graphite powder concentration reached a certain level, and the signal transmitters finally started working.
After a flash of light from the white device at the top of each transmitter, the entire high sky suddenly turned from dim to bright daylight!
"Holy crap, now I finally know what caused the 'white light' and 'black light'—aren't they caused by these things?"
Gao Ang suddenly realized that he had always thought that white light was emitted by a certain light source.
It now appears that the light was emitted not from a single light source, but from multiple light sources and graphite powder through a clustering and transmission effect.
Just as Gao Dang shouted loudly, his communication with Qian Sui was suddenly cut off.
He knew that their communication had been cut off; in other words, what had happened to him in Death Valley was being repeated on Chitose.
"Your Majesty, it's up to you now. Don't let me down."
He desperately wanted to rush over and help Qian Sui out of his current predicament, but Gao Ang suppressed his impulse.
There are two reasons. First, he cannot directly escape the protection that his superiors had placed him under house arrest.
Secondly, Qian Sui only grew up in a greenhouse, and all his knowledge is based on theory. If he wants to evolve into a truly intelligent biological being, he will definitely need to go through some particularly difficult situations.
And this time, it just so happens to be the perfect whetstone.
As for whether the Thousand Years would be destroyed, Gao Ang was somewhat relieved.
The space weapon in Death Valley was likely a low-probability event and probably had significant limitations; he didn't believe Terence possessed the same thing.
Since that thing is in Death Valley, there must be a reason for it. In other words, Death Valley's current appearance is definitely related to that space weapon.
Here, the water and grass are plentiful, and life is prosperous; there is no sign of desolation at all.
Another advantage is that Gao Feng doesn't believe Terence possesses a weapon capable of destroying a thousand years old.
Aside from space weapons, Chitose is practically invincible.
Unlike Gao Ang, he has his own emotions and other organs. Even if the wizard Natren in Dort Castle were to be resurrected, it would probably have no effect on Qian Sui.
But Qian Sui is different; he can break free from Natron's mental attacks and use his steel armor to smash Natron hard...
Chisui was very flustered because he discovered that he could no longer fly.
But the connection with those anti-gravity devices is still there, so what's going on?
"Sir, sir!"
Chisui anxiously tried to contact his family, but all he heard through the microphone was a series of crackling sounds; he knew this meant the communication signal was blocked.
Yes, sir, I think you mentioned that situation before.
Qian Sui quickly found Gao Ang and the information and data they had explained about their experience in Death Valley.
"It must be due to the spatial energy that the anti-gravity device failed, which is why I was forced to land on the ground."
The claim that it landed on the ground is entirely due to Chitose's pride; to put it bluntly, it crashed...
It plunged into the shallow waters of the Mediterranean Sea from a height of 1,000 meters in free fall.
The spot where he fell into the water was 375 meters away from Terence's lair.
It took a lot of effort for Qian Sui to pull himself out of the mud.
After a thorough inspection, thankfully, the body structure was intact and all instruments were functioning normally.
Graphite powder and such things are only useful for instruments that are not finely constructed. His body, however, has been rigorously refined by the master.
Not to mention graphite powder, it's completely unaffected even when soaked in seawater; it's no exaggeration to say it's impervious to water and fire.
Having concealed itself at the bottom of the sea, Chitose glanced up.
Through the murky seawater, one could still see the white light in the sky, meaning it was not safe to go out now.
"How about we wait a bit?"
Chitose inherited some of Gao's personality traits, being steady and not impulsive.
But here's the problem: he wants to play it safe, but others aren't giving him the opportunity.
The sound of a motorboat engine could be heard on the water, growing louder as it approached; the sound of impellers stirring the seawater could also be heard in the water.
Meanwhile, the sounds of propellers and jet engines could also be heard in the air...
Good heavens, a three-dimensional encirclement and annihilation formation integrating land, sea, and air!
If Chitose could swallow saliva, she must have swallowed more than once.
"Calm down, calm down!"
Chitose forced herself to calm down and began to analyze the current situation:
"My body is abnormal enough that ordinary weapons shouldn't be able to harm me. In other words, even if this body is damaged, as long as my original body doesn't perish, you should still be able to find me and take me back. That is to say, from the result, I am already in an invincible position..."
After a quick analysis, Chitose calmed down considerably. "They're already undefeated, what are we afraid of? Let's get them!"
With her legs slightly bent and her feet exerting force, Chisui leaped directly out of the water. Her massive steel body shimmered and shone brightly under the white light, making her look like an unparalleled war god.
Unfortunately, his good fortune didn't last long. Lacking an anti-gravity device, his body weight was simply not something those few small motors could move.
With a "plop," it fell into the water again.
After eight attempts, Chitose finally reached the shore, only to be met with a fierce barrage of firepower.
The Gatling guns of the helicopters overhead were spitting bullets at him like they were free;
The machine gunners in the speedboats on the water made no attempt to conceal their positions, and opened fire with their rifles.
The sniper lying prone on the rooftop in the distance also released the safety, showcasing the Barrett's exceptional sniping capabilities...
"Ding ding ding ding..."
Bullets rained down on Chitose, forcing him to retreat step by step.
His body is abnormal enough, but even a lot of ants can kill an elephant.
Under the impact of high-energy kinetic energy, the outermost steel outer layer of the millennium-old body has developed dents.
"You've got some nerve!"
Chisui was beaten to the ground and couldn't lift his head at all. He was also filled with anger.
With a hardened heart, he braced his head against the impact of distant sniper bullets, glanced up at the helicopter circling high in the sky, and shouted, "Die!"
Two white lights flashed, and the two helicopters, unable to dodge in time, burst into two huge fireworks in the air.
"And you, die!"
With the oppressive force no longer pressing down on him, Chisui was finally able to get up from the ground and glared at the several motorboats on the sea.
Several more flashes of white light appeared, and these motorboats followed in the footsteps of the helicopters.
The sniper on the distant rooftop saw all of this, and the commander immediately gave the order, "Shoot him in the eyes, that's his attack method!"
Upon receiving the order, the sniper immediately pulled the trigger.
Ten armor-piercing bullets shot rapidly toward Chisui's eyes.
"A trivial skill!"
The rooftop and the distance to the millennium are less than 300 meters, so the bullet's flight time would be at least 0.3 seconds.
This was enough time for Chitose to make many evasive maneuvers, but he didn't.
Instead of dodging left and right, it's better to face the attack head-on.
His eyes fired multiple intermittent laser beams again, and the bullets turned into molten iron, which poured onto the ground like rain.
The snipers and commanders were dumbfounded. How were they supposed to play this?
Before they could find a place to hide, Qian Sui wiped them all out.
"You choose the path to hell when there's no way out!"
Chitose checked her energy reserves and found that she had already used up almost half of them in just a short while.
Launching those small missiles doesn't consume much energy, and the flight itself doesn't consume much either. The key is this laser weapon.
Launching a missile simply requires ejecting it; the remaining flight energy comes from inside the missile, and the flight is similar. As long as the anti-gravity device is not overused, it can basically achieve a balance with the energy conversion, and the consumption of those motors is negligible.
Laser weapons are different; they represent the purest form of energy output and are among the most energy-intensive methods.
Having dealt with the ground firepower, Chitose set his sights on the underwater world, where there was another metal lump: a small conventionally powered submarine.
Chitose was also puzzled. So far, he had not been able to find any other communication signals. How did these people contact each other? How did their commander direct them in battle?
Are they all relying on their fighting instincts?
Or perhaps they have mastered a technology that allows signals to be transmitted even when space is blocked?
All of this remains unknown, but that didn't stop Chisui from diving into the water to fight the submarine.
