Chapter 1138: Arrangements of the Two Major Conglomerates (Extended Chapter, Seeking Monthly Tickets)
City center
A violent explosion blew a huge hole in the magnificent palace. A scattered radiance flew out through the opening, rolled once, and silver Exoskeleton Armor almost instantly covered his body.
Dense swarms of drones emerged from every corner around them. Like a crowded hive of bees, they turned their cannons toward the palace with the hole blown through it.
Surging radiance burst from the drones' muzzles in an instant, forming countless beams of light that cut through the silent darkness, instantly vaporized the drifting snow, and blanketed the entire night sky.
Behind that surging radiance, the figure that had fallen to the ground did not hesitate. He turned, scrambled to his feet, and pressed a button on his hand.
Flames instantly erupted from the silver Exoskeleton Armor, carrying his body into the depths of the night.
Boom—
Almost at the instant he shot away, the dense swarm of drones exploded like a continuous barrage of fireworks. Rolling waves of fire formed a towering wall.
A figure walked out from that towering wall of flame and looked in the direction the armor had fled.
After setting the helicopter's destination to the Mayor's Residence and switching its flight mode to autopilot, He Ao leaned back in his seat and opened his wristband.
A photograph appeared before him.
The man in the photo had a square face, a tall build, and heavy brows and eyes. Merely standing there, he resembled a suppressed volcano that could erupt at any moment.
He Ao swiped the photo and read the description beside it.
This man's information contained only one name: "De Nock."
He Ao reached out and tapped above the photograph. A social news webpage quickly popped up behind it.
