Chapter 553 Brothers Reunite
With a reluctant expression on his face, Han Shuo had no choice but to engage Cheng Shenghong in battle.
When the two sides officially began fighting, he felt as if his left fist was hitting a piece of iron, making a constant clanging sound.
As for the Tang sword in his right hand, he hesitated to use it because he knew how sharp the black crystal material was and was afraid of hurting his good brother.
At this moment, although Cheng Shenghong was on the opposite side, Han Shuo knew that this was not his original intention. He had been transformed and controlled by someone, and the culprit was that old man.
He needs to find a way to temporarily shake off Cheng Shenghong and eliminate his true enemy first...
...
"Brother Demon Man, Brother Demon Man, stop! I am Han Shuo!"
Han Shuo shouted loudly while keeping a watchful eye on the attack.
However, Cheng Shenghong in front of him still did not respond at all; his eyes were empty and devoid of any emotion.
During the battle, Han Shuo also realized that his brother had become incredibly strong.
For a moment, they were evenly matched?
It should be noted that Cheng Shenghong was only a level 3 evolved genetic human before. Even with a very good foundation, far exceeding that of ordinary people, and rich combat experience, he was at most comparable to a level 4 evolved genetic human.
Logically speaking, he is far inferior to his current self, by more than one level.
How did the old man elevate him to this level without any turbid fluid?
...
Soon, Han Shuo noticed something unusual: Cheng Shenghong's gleaming armor.
This is my brother, something that didn't exist in him before.
Although it looked like armor, after observing it for a while, Han Shuo felt it was more like a mecha.
Because it constantly wriggles and changes, as if it were alive.
"What is this thing?"
After dodging a punch, Han Shuo frowned and muttered to himself.
He then shifted all of his attention to it.
The closer you look, the wider his eyes widen.
"These... these wriggling things, are they all nanorobots? Is the mecha encasing Brother Yao Nan made entirely of nanorobots?"
In that instant, Han Shuo boldly made such a guess in his mind.
...
That's right, that's the truth.
Not long ago, seeing that the second-generation nanotechnology for controlling alien species had failed to make any breakthroughs, the old man temporarily shifted his research focus to the human body.
At the time, he sent the tattooed man outside to search for living survivors and bring them back, which was precisely because a large number of test subjects were needed.
Through repeated analysis and simulation.
He eventually devised a plan to modify the human body, which was:
Peel off the skin, drill into the bones!
Just hearing those four words makes me feel incredibly pained...
However, the old man didn't care at all about the life or death of the test subjects.
He skinned each of the living people the tattooed men brought back, one by one, and implanted nanobots all over their flesh to form sturdy mechs. Then, he drilled into their bones and implanted another batch of nanobots into small holes to control their movement.
This cruel experiment could only be performed on living people.
Because their bodily functions still exist, if successful, the muscle tissue in their bodies will slowly grow together with those nanobots during the recovery period, thus achieving fusion between the two.
During this time, survivors died one after another...
Many people didn't even make it to the skinning stage; they died tragically during the experiment.
In the end, after all the renovations were completely completed, only Cheng Shenghong was able to persevere...
At this moment, it is precisely through these sophisticated technological means and the robust and versatile mecha that he has been able to dramatically increase his combat power.
However, the price he paid was also enormous, extremely enormous...
...
At the same time, the old man frowned slightly when he saw that Han Shuo, despite being injured and somewhat weak, was still able to hold his own against their last secret weapon.
"This kid is really strong!"
The two then exchanged a glance, no longer staying to watch the battle, and quickly turned and walked towards the helicopter.
They feared that Han Shuo would win and continue to hunt them down.
At this point, the enemy was tied down, and for the two of them, persisting in retreating was the safest option and the best way to save their lives.
...
"Brother Demon Man, wake up! It's me, it's me!"
On the other side, Han Shuo continued to shout loudly.
He hoped that Cheng Shenghong could hear his voice, regain his senses, and return to his original self.
Unfortunately, no matter how he shouted, Cheng Shenghong's eyes remained empty.
Han Shuo was very anxious, really anxious.
He was afraid of hurting his brother, so he spent most of his time on the defensive.
As the wounds on his body multiplied, he caught a glimpse of the old man and the tattooed man retreating behind him out of the corner of his eye.
...
"We can't run away, we absolutely can't let those two get away!"
The next moment, Han Shuo's eyes narrowed, knowing that he could not continue to entangle with Cheng Shenghong.
If things continue like this, all of everyone's efforts tonight will be in vain.
Because if the old man escapes, it means the zombie horde cannot be stopped. The longer it drags on, the more dangerous it will be for Fatty and Xiao Zhao in the forest.
He certainly cared about Cheng Shenghong in front of him, but he absolutely could not let his other brothers fall into a desperate situation because of his own reasons.
...
"Brother Yao Nan, I'm sorry."
Han Shuo silently cursed in his heart, no longer holding back any of his strength, and finally raised the Tang sword in his right hand.
He seized a rare opportunity during a lull in Cheng Shenghong's attack.
brush!
The afterimage traced a graceful arc in the moonlight, and in a fleeting moment, it slashed towards Cheng Shenghong's nape.
At the last moment, Han Shuo flipped his wrist, changing the blade to the back of the blade.
"Smack!"
Under the immense impact, the irrational Cheng Shenghong was sent flying by the Tang sword and crashed heavily to the ground.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Han Shuo quickly broke free and turned his attention back to the two people in front of him.
Chase!
...
At this moment, the old man and the tattooed man were only a step away from the helicopter in the distance.
Han Shuo's rapid running shortened the distance between them considerably in an instant.
"I can do it, I definitely can!"
He firmly believed that he could arrive at the last minute.
However, he did not notice that Cheng Shenghong, whom he had just knocked down, had slowly gotten up from the ground.
He stood quietly in place, not moving to chase or stop Han Shuo, staring expressionlessly at Han Shuo's back.
Suddenly, he raised his right hand, and at that moment, his arm began to glow red!
