Chapter 114 The Price of Losing Control



“No matter the cost…” Lu Zhaoming paused, but before he could finish speaking, Su Li interrupted him.

"Oh, Judge Lu, what's wrong, scared? How about I give you a kiss, a hug, and lift you up high to give you some courage?" Su Li's charming eyes were simply captivating, and her voice was so sweet it could make your bones go weak.

Lu Zhaoming rolled his eyes in annoyance, thinking to himself, "What time is it? Still talking nonsense!"

However, I have to admit that her interruption did relieve a lot of my nervousness.

"Fear? That word doesn't exist in my dictionary!" Lu Zhaoming grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth. "I was just thinking about how to make that bastard Chi Xiao die a more gruesome death!"

A faint smell of rust filled the warehouse. In the corner, there were some discarded parts and broken oil drums. The dim light bulbs overhead emitted a buzzing sound, making people feel even more depressed.

Lu Zhaoming took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

However, he felt a restless force stirring within him.

That force was like a wild horse, rampaging and crashing around, making him feel like he was filled with explosive energy, yet he couldn't control it.

"Everyone be careful!" Lu Zhaoming suddenly shouted, his expression becoming extremely serious.

Before anyone could react, a dazzling white light suddenly burst forth from his palm.

The white light, like a small sun, instantly illuminated the entire warehouse.

"Holy crap, what's going on?" Old Wolf was so frightened that he sat down on the ground with his backside, clutching his head and screaming.

Su Li's eyes widened as she stared at Lu Zhaoming in disbelief.

She could sense that the energy fluctuations emanating from Lu Zhaoming were unusually violent, as if they were about to spiral out of control at any moment.

Even more strangely, under the white light, a rusty metal plate in the corner of the warehouse suddenly began to shake violently.

Immediately afterwards, the metal plate twisted and deformed like a crumpled piece of paper, eventually turning into a pile of scrap metal.

"My God, what kind of sorcery is this?" The old wolf stared in disbelief, stammering.

"It's not sorcery, it's superpower!" Su Li exclaimed, pointing at Lu Zhaoming, "Lu Zhaoming, your superpower seems to have gone out of control!"

Lu Zhaoming also realized the seriousness of the problem.

He could sense that the judgment system within his body was undergoing some unknown change.

The feeling was like the calm before a volcanic eruption, full of danger and uncertainty.

"Damn it, this broken system!" Lu Zhaoming cursed under his breath, trying to suppress the surging energy within his body.

He closed his eyes tightly, trying to concentrate and control the violent force.

However, the more he tried to control it, the more the force resisted.

It was like a rebellious child, acting recklessly and giving him a splitting headache.

"No, this can't go on!" Lu Zhaoming suddenly opened his eyes.

Just then, a series of noisy footsteps suddenly came from outside the warehouse.

Immediately afterwards, a cold voice rang out in the night sky: "Lu Zhaoming, I know you're here! Surrender obediently, or you'll be killed without mercy!"

Lu Zhaoming's expression changed.

Meanwhile, on the top floor of a high-rise building several kilometers away from the abandoned warehouse, Red Owl stood in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window, holding a glass of red wine, with a cold smile on his face.

Beside him stood a tall man.

The man was dressed in a black combat suit, wore high-tech glasses, and exuded a chilling aura.

"Leng Feng, how's the situation?" Chi Xiao asked casually, gently swirling the wine in his glass.

“According to the data captured by the monitoring equipment, Lu Zhaoming’s superpower is in an unstable state.” Leng Feng pushed up his glasses and said calmly, “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We can take this chance to seize his power.”

"Oh? Is that so?" Chi Xiao's lips curled into a wicked smile. "Looks like even the heavens are on my side! Lu Zhaoming, haven't you always been my adversary? This time, I'll let you taste what true despair is!"

Leng Feng remained silent, but he knew that Chi Xiao's ambitions went far beyond this.

He wanted not only Lu Zhaoming's power, but also the rule over the entire wasteland world.

“Remember, be extremely careful on this mission.” Chi Xiao put down his wine glass, turned around, and said in a serious tone, “Lu Zhaoming is no simple character; he has many secrets. If you can’t kill him with one blow, then don’t act rashly.”

"Understood!" Leng Feng nodded, turned and left the room.

Chi Xiao stood there, gazing at the dark night sky outside the window. He seemed to see himself standing atop the wasteland, looking down upon all living beings.

"Lu Zhaoming, you are destined to be my stepping stone!" Chi Xiao said in a low voice, his voice full of confidence and arrogance.

Inside the abandoned warehouse, Lu Zhaoming looked at everyone with a gloomy expression.

He knew that the situation was extremely critical.

He not only faces the risk of his powers going out of control, but also has to deal with the pursuit of the Red Owl.

"Old Wolf, Su Li, you take the rest and go first!" Lu Zhaoming said in a deep voice, "I'll hold them off!"

"No, we're going together!" Old Wolf shook his head and said resolutely, "We can't leave you here alone!"

"Yes, Lu Zhaoming, we'll die together!" Su Li nodded in agreement.

Lu Zhaoming felt a warmth in his heart; if they all stayed here, they would only become a burden to him.
