Chapter 147 Bloodshed Five Feet
The surroundings of Xin Que seemed to reflect Luo Jingchen's anger, flashing back and forth before finally settling on a scene of desolation.
She slammed heavily against the glass beside her, "Crash—"
The woman leaped through the shattered glass out of the window frame and landed steadily on her knees on the ground.
Xin Que stood up, and shards of glass fell to the ground with her movements, but she didn't care. She just coldly looked up at the young man who was walking slowly out of the mansion from his high position.
Luo Jingchen, dragging his spear, pressed closer and closer to Xin Que, who dared to look him in the eye despite being unarmed. "You're asking for death!"
Xin Que dodged the spear tip that was aimed straight at her heart, her eyes fixed on the spear tip that Luo Jingchen could control with one hand.
The spear thrust out like a dragon, its sharp metal tip aimed directly at Xin Que's throat each time, grazing her eyelids countless times. It was unstoppable and determined to destroy her vital points, to have her head impaled on the spear tip.
Xin Que's attempt to seize the spear shaft was anticipated by Luo Jingchen, who quickly retreated to the side and distanced himself from the spear as Xin Que swiftly thrust forward.
Luo Jingchen's patience had run out. He suddenly swung the spear down at Xin Que. Just as she anticipated that the attack would be a brute force slash, the spear quickly decomposed into data, which gathered and reassembled in the blink of an eye, forming the shape of a knife hilt in her hand.
The gleaming blade of the wild goose feather saber left a silver afterimage in the air, cutting through the wind and heading straight for Xin Que's brow.
"I thought you were something special..."
Luo Jingchen twirled his goose-feather saber, then slashed horizontally at Xin Que, who had dodged the attack, and shouted coldly, "Useless trash who only knows how to provoke but not how to fight!"
"You can't even kill the criminal who provoked you, aren't you even more useless?" Xin Que stepped back to dodge the blade, steadied her footing, and raised her elbow to strike the man's wrist, her words filled with sarcasm.
"Aside from your fancy skills with melee weapons, your speed is no different from an ordinary person's... You weren't turned into a surveillance tool by someone who extracted your soul, were you?"
Luo Jingchen pressed on, "I've never seen such a suicidal idiot like you!!!"
The ground shook, and Xin Que quickly jumped aside, almost losing her balance.
The vibrations transmitted from underground to the surface are becoming increasingly noticeable.
Luo Jingchen glared angrily at the woman who had retreated to the back garden during the fight, "Since you're so eager to try..."
Xin Que looked down at the floor tiles beneath her feet.
"Crack... Crack crack... Boom—"
The floor tiles cracked rapidly in all directions, like a spider web, from the point where she stood.
Then, a dense network of roots... no, it was black iron thorns, a dense network of iron thorns, burst forth from the soil.
The steel, wrapped with countless sharp spikes, grew wildly toward the sky.
In just a few dozen seconds, the old house was completely surrounded and established by iron thorns. From the air, all that could be seen was a terrifying cocoon of dense iron spikes, with no trace of the building inside.
The magpie is the prey that is locked in the center of the spider's web.
"King Biancheng, stop!!!"
A sharp arrow pierced straight through the iron thorns and aimed at Luo Jingchen.
The iron thorns behind Luo Jingchen seemed to come alive, quickly growing over to block the arrow for him.
"clang----"
The metal clashed heavily, producing a sharp and menacing sound.
"You're insane!" Mr. Zhen emerged from the shadows behind him, utterly shocked by the scene before him. "How dare you forcibly invoke your authority to execute a prisoner..."
"Huh?" Luo Jingchen laughed exaggeratedly, then pointed the goose feather knife in his hand at Mr. Zhen, and the smile on his lips disappeared. "Don't interfere in my affairs."
Just as Mr. Zhen was about to say something, a huge mechanical eye suddenly opened in mid-air. Then, the layers of terrifying mechanical pupils rotated twice and locked onto Luo Jingchen, who was standing in the thorns.
[It has been confirmed that the middle-level AI administrator 'Biancheng Wang' experienced program malfunctions due to a virus intrusion.]
【The King of Facial Features…】
Mr. Zhen quickly retreated to dodge Luo Jingchen's goose-feather saber, and with a flick of his knee-length bracelet, he deflected Luo Jingchen's horizontal slash with a clang.
Immediately sever the connection between 'King Biancheng' and the sixth level, and retrieve both the prisoner and the out-of-control King Biancheng.
"I've been wanting to get rid of you for ages," Luo Jingchen's gray hair flew back with his attack, revealing the man's phoenix eyes, which were filled with rage. "You have your own territory, yet you keep coming to the sixth floor to interfere with other people's missions..."
The goose-feather saber disintegrated into data during the upward attack, and in the blink of an eye, it reassembled into the spear used to attack Xin Que earlier. The young man's burned hands gripped the spear shaft tightly, and he thrust it heavily towards Mr. Zhen's eyes. "Now you're deliberately luring the administrator here to get me removed from office, aren't you?"
Who do you think you are?!
Mr. Zhen used his internal energy to knock away Luo Jingchen's spear, saying, "You don't seem like someone who should be in charge of managing Hell at all..."
"On the contrary, they seem like brainless idiots who are only driven by their emotions!!!"
With a flick of his finger, he drew a line in front of him, from which countless boiling liquids surged forth, splashing towards Luo Jingchen's hands that were wielding the gun. His purpose was clear: to cripple Luo Jingchen's hands and force him to surrender.
Luo Jingchen deftly held his spear in front of him, twirling it to deflect the boiling water. Then, he saw the deflected liquid corrode the iron thorns protecting him at an astonishing speed.
"Hand over the serious criminal now, and there's still room for maneuver..." Mr. Zhen looked coldly at Luo Jingchen, "If you continue to be stubborn, you know the consequences of being taken back!"
Luo Jingchen lowered his gun and glanced at the back garden, which was now unrecognizable from being pierced by layers of iron thorns. "Hand her over?"
The iron thorns seemed to be loosening, slowly unraveling outwards. Just when Mr. Zhen thought he had finally regained consciousness and was about to release Xin Que, the thorns suddenly tightened, and the sound of countless bricks and tiles shattering came from the tightening layers of thorns.
“You can hand it over,” Luo Jingchen said without even glancing at the deep red blood flowing out of the crack. Instead, he raised his chin at Mr. Zhen and said, “Take whatever you want, as many pieces as you want.”
“Oh,” Luo Jingchen chuckled exaggeratedly, “now we might have to use a spoon to pick it up.”
Mr. Zhen's expression suddenly turned gloomy, and then the originally clear sky was gradually covered by dark clouds as if it were being obscured by some shadow.
“King Biancheng…” Mr. Zhen looked down coldly at the new king who had just been promoted to a middle-level position, “You’ve gone too far.”
"boom----"
The dark clouds gradually dispersed, revealing a vast, inverted hell that blotted out the sky, pressing down on Luo Jingchen's thorny ground with overwhelming force, like dark clouds pressing down on a city.
[The mid-level management position of 'King Biancheng' has been abolished.]
[Reclaim all privileges.]
[Sever all connections between it and hell...]
The thorny ground in front of him continued to grow wildly and rampage. Luo Jingchen stared intently at the inverted hell approaching overhead, then suddenly swung his gun and charged at Mr. Zhen. Subsequently, all sixteen smaller hells hidden beneath the thorny ground were pushed to the surface by the iron thorns and surrounded Mr. Zhen.
"The sixth level is completely taken over by the Great Hell."
Ignoring the murderous intent surging in the young man's eyes, Mr. Zhen flicked his finger, and his figure turned into a cloud of ashes. Before Luo Jingchen could turn around, he reappeared behind him. Then, a bamboo stick that appeared out of thin air in his hand quickly pierced Luo Jingchen's nape.
"As for you..." Mr. Zhen coldly watched as Luo Jingchen's body was pierced through all his joints by bamboo skewers that exploded rapidly, "Kill him on the spot."
The spear rolled into the thorny thicket, before one could even hear the sharp sound of the metal blade colliding with the thorns...
The earth shook and the sky seemed to collapse.
The Great Hell crushed the sixth level, which had already begun to collapse, along with everything contained within it, until the sixth level was completely destroyed.
