Damn it, Lin Yu really is the trump card cultivated by Otto in advance (cont.)

Originally, Gray Serpent's plan was to use persuasive words to seduce Lin Yu.

He really didn't expect that Lin Yu not only didn't intend to listen to him, but also acted so decisively.

After his initial probing attack failed, Lin Yu condensed Honkai Energy into a beam of light and used its immense power to pierce through the protective shield created by the Herrscher Soldier of Gray Serpent.

Moreover, it was precisely because Lin Yu was too decisive that the protective shield created by the Gray Serpent was unable to replenish its energy in time after being depleted by the first wave of attacks, leading to his immediate death.

After the commander-in-chief, Gray Serpent, was killed, the remaining Herrscher Soldier, even if they were not dead, would eventually fall into chaos due to the lack of leadership.

From beginning to end, all of Gray Serpent's carefully crafted rhetoric and battle plans vanished like bubbles under Lin Yu's decisive double attack.

Moreover, although Gray Serpent's body was shattered by the Spear of Light, the mechanical devices implanted in those Herrscher Soldier still allowed him to connect with their vision.

So he saw Lin Yu's final blow before those soldiers died.

After striking his body, the light gun transformed into a light blade, slicing through the bodies of the Herrscher Soldier at lightning speed and instantly killing them within a second.

Whether Lin Yu relied on brain analysis or purely on intuition to complete the attack, he did indeed kill the enemy who appeared before him in the most efficient way.

Although there are still a large number of Gray Serpent Herrscher Soldier lying in ambush within Singapore, however...

—As an unlucky guy who has faced Lin Yu twice, Gray Serpent is terrified.

Lin Yu's progress is simply too fast.

Moreover, what's most terrifying about Lin Yu is that his progress isn't just in strength; his intellect has clearly kept pace as well.

This person was originally a secret agent, and what secret agents need most is the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

As a result, from the moment this person stepped onto the battlefield, he seemed to thrive, and began to grow rapidly.

In just fifty days, Lin Yu has transformed from a Stigmata holder who administers serum to Herrscher into a Honkai Energy.

Admittedly, the Stigmata he absorbed, the Key of Domination he possessed, and the God-Slaying Armor did provide him with considerable combat power, but the main reason he was so strong was due to his own character.

If it were Divine Key holder like Siegfried, Durandal, Theresa coming alone, Gray Serpent wouldn't be so flustered.

Although these three people are far more destructive than Lin Yu, their combined intelligence and action are probably not as terrifying as Lin Yu's.

The Gray Serpent clearly still have the numerical advantage.

He is clearly a cyborg with an electronic brain.

But now, the thought of Lin Yu starting his charge toward Singapore is giving Gray Serpent a phantom headache.

"Jackal —can you even handle this problem?!"

Looking at the Jackal covered in sweat, Gray Serpent felt even more pressure.

The Jackal, who used to talk big, has stopped talking big, stopped bragging, and stopped wearing a mask.

On her fairly pretty face, Gray Serpent saw cold sweat pouring down her face and an expression of utter panic.

"Gray Serpent, I admit, I was indeed a little bit arrogant before."

Faced with the terrifying pressure from the Gray Serpent, this time, the Jackal did not choose to be stubborn, but spoke directly to the Gray Serpent.

"But you expect someone like me, a bioengineer, to quickly solve problems in the field of quantum mechanics..."

The Jackal didn't finish his sentence.

However, everything is left unsaid.

Seeing the Jackal who had been so stubborn before now telling her that she couldn't handle the problem, Gray Serpent really wanted to slap her twice across the face.

However, considering that the Stigmata Plan still needed the Jackal, Gray Serpent suppressed his anger.

"But, Gray Serpent, do not lose heart!"

Upon seeing the silent Gray Serpent Jackal, realizing he had messed things up, immediately spoke to him.

"Although I can't figure out how the Quantum Teleportation System was hacked, I don't know the principle, but I have two ways to solve the problem."

"Explain!"

"Yes!"

The moment the Gray Serpent uttered that word, the Jackal immediately spoke at top speed.

"The Quantum Teleportation System started failing about an hour ago, which means that the Anti-Entropy side started targeting us about an hour ago."

"Considering that you told me that the 'Gray Serpent' in other regions can still use the Quantum Teleportation System, then it means that the Quantum Teleportation System in Singapore is the only one that is malfunctioning."

"This only shows that although the Anti-Entropy side has developed a way to shield the Quantum Teleportation System, they need to rely on certain methods to achieve targeted shielding."

"I think, from the simplest perspective, they probably teleported someone over and had them temporarily disable our system with a device."

"... That makes sense."

After hearing the Jackal's analysis, Gray Serpent realized that he had been too hasty.

He only remembered such a simple truth after being reminded by the Jackal.

Furthermore, we have already conducted an investigation in Singapore.

Rather than saying 'Anti-Entropy just sent someone randomly,' we're more inclined to believe that Anti-Entropy sent someone capable of fighting to resolve the chaos.

Raiden Ryoma lacks combat power and also has to continue cleaning up Cocolia's messes in the business world.

Welt Young's health condition is probably not very good, so it couldn't be him.

Siegfried Kaslana —it can only be him.

This is troublesome.

Siegfried may not have a good relationship with the people of Schicksal, but he definitely has a good relationship with Lin Yu.

These two are already difficult to deal with individually, but if they team up...

Lin Yu's adaptability, coupled with Siegfried's ability to Heavenly Fire: Unleashed, is enough to thwart our plans.

"I understand. Let's change our strategy then."

At this moment, Gray Serpent, through his electronic brain, issued commands to the Herrscher Clone soldiers under his control throughout the city.

"Everyone, put down what you're doing and start following my orders."

"Our target is Siegfried Kaslana. We must eliminate this man before he makes contact with Lin Yu!"

Lin Yu, who was running on flat ground, stopped helplessly after realizing that the Honkai Energy on his Divine Key was almost completely exhausted.

After he had been running for a while, he still couldn't catch up with Yuno.

Now, after the buff that Raiden Mei had given him disappeared, his speed immediately dropped to his usual average value.

Although the system notification hasn't arrived yet, it can be inferred from this that Yuno hasn't become the Herrscher of Death yet.

But now, every second counts, and no one knows when Yuno will catch up with Dr. Mags and come into contact with the Herrscher Core that she shouldn't have.

Oh, I forgot there's another reward I haven't claimed yet. I'll use it first.

After taking out the motorcycle that he hadn't taken out of his storage space for a long time, Lin Yu immediately used the lottery ticket.

This time, however, the light he had hoped to see did not shine before him.

Purple, gold, and crimson did not appear before his eyes.

What appeared before Lin Yu was a blue Skill Book.

[Skill Book - Manipulation (True Goddess Reincarnation TRPG Series)]

[Skill Introduction - Common skills shared by players in the True Goddess Reincarnation TRPG world.]

[After using this skill, the user can manipulate surrounding objects with magic, making it easier to control the objects in front of them.]

Simply put, if it involves driving a vehicle, it will enhance driving skills; if it involves using weapons, it will enhance weapon handling skills.

Depending on the strength of the magic, various aspects of the item's performance, such as speed, strength, and penetration, will be enhanced to a certain extent.

[Note: Please be aware that each item has a limit to the amount of magic it can withstand. Injecting excessive magic can easily cause the object to disintegrate or even result in a magic explosion.]

[Note 2: Of course, you can also inject excessive magic power into the bomb to enhance its explosive force, but please be careful when using this technique to manipulate objects.]

Looking at the Skill Book, Lin Yu, who used it on the spot, was genuinely curious about how the system's judgment mechanism worked.

The system once said that the items drawn by the system would match the characteristics of the drawer to a certain extent.

But this... are you sure it matches my characteristics and not my state of mind?

This system is certain that this is purely a coincidence.

... Fine, since you've said that, I'm too lazy to waste any more words with you.

After using the Skill Book, Lin Yu immediately applied the control skill to the motorcycle in front of him.

As Lin Yu activated the skill he had just learned, he immediately noticed some strange patterns appearing on the motorcycle in front of him.

Lin Yu simply didn't have time to care about such trivial matters.

The moment he started the motorcycle, he even heard the engine making some unsettling roaring sounds.

I feel like this time the 'manipulation' injected too much magic power... Oh my god!

The moment the motorcycle started speeding away, Lin Yu saw its speed instantly soar to 300 miles per hour.

If he hadn't already made some preparations, he felt he would have been left behind in an instant.

Holy crap, that's a really good skill.

And the speed is still increasing, wow!

"Tsk, Zero Knight: Moon Shadow, get dressed!"

To avoid causing further problems for his body, Lin Yu, who felt the motorcycle's speed continuing to increase, put on the God-Slaying Armor he hadn't originally intended to use in this kind of place.

Meanwhile, the Gray Serpent, who had just finished commanding the clones within the World Serpent's temporary ward, received an image from another Gray Serpent.

On the plains, Lin Yu inexplicably summoned a motorcycle and then got on it.

Then, in the scene, Lin Yu started the motorcycle, causing its speed to skyrocket.

"Wait, what is this???"

Seeing Lin Yu dash out in a flash, Gray Serpent was completely stunned.

No, the speed of the car reaches 300 km/h the instant the engine starts, and it keeps increasing.

In addition, after putting on the God-Slaying Armor, Lin Yu also wrapped another layer of Honkai Energy Armor around his body.

Otto... Damn it, Lin Yu really was the ace he had been cultivating in advance.

Not only was God-Slaying Armor prepared for him, but even the accompanying war chariot was ready.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Lin Yu was able to summon this chariot out of thin air.

Moreover, Lin Yu's armor now appears to be specifically designed for defense.

This feature not only ensures Lin Yu's survivability, but also allows him to withstand even more terrifying speeds when using the chariot.

Damn it, that speed is already 1150...

1180...

1210...

Code 1224????

Sonic speed?

Wait, why is the speed still increasing?

Hey, your tank is starting to fall apart!

No, if this continues, your motorcycle will be totaled.

And then again, after comparing it with the data in the database, I found that this motorcycle's appearance is very similar to some motorcycles in the real world...

Was it Otto who designed the motorcycle in this shape to conceal it?

How can this man be so cunning and treacherous even in such trivial matters!

I originally thought that although Lin Yu was troublesome, it would take at least some time before he could get to Singapore.

But now, if he continues at this speed...
