[Real world, Station 13 ]
Looking at the screen, the Deputy Captain Yu Chen suddenly turned against them and betrayed them.
This Dimensional Audience.
However, despite his betrayal, Yu Chen's current serious yet nonsensical behavior is making it difficult for the Dimensional Audience watch.
"Hey! How could a squad Deputy Captain miss? With that kind of blatant lying ability, it's a waste he's not a storyteller!"
' Yu Chen: Sorry, Captain, I'm too selfish, my fairness is zero~(￣▽￣)~*'
' Shui Mo: There's a traitor in the team.'
'Captain Shui Mo's facial expression control is perfect, hahaha, not a single emotional fluctuation?'
Looking at Yu Chen on the screen, smiling as he stared at the ' Shui Mo '.
The Dimensional Audience know perfectly well that this guy didn't do it accidentally; he did it on purpose!
Because of Liu Ma's massive build, even a normal person would have to deliberately shoot into the air to miss.
Not to mention hitting the ' Shui Mo ' next to it.
Without a doubt, this guy did it on purpose!
At this moment, the Tiandao, standing at the entrance of the ' Bridge of Gears and Brass ', had clearly seen through this.
He looked at Yu Chen, who had already drawn his two guns, and said calmly, " Vice Captain Yu, it seems you've made your decision."
In response, Yu Chen casually shrugged, holding his gun, a cynical smile on his lips.
Well, more or less.
Meanwhile, the members of the Fifth Squad saw their Deputy Captain suddenly betray them.
They froze for half a second, then drew their weapons and aimed them at Yu Chen.
Tiandao waved his hand and said, "Leave this to me, you guys go after the fugitive."
The team members hesitated for a moment, then finally shouted in unison, "Yes!"
Meanwhile, the ordinary team members were already chasing after Chen Kong and Vivian in the direction they had left.
Little Danika hesitated for a moment, then gripped the short sword at her waist, her little face filled with the seriousness of 'I am also a member of the Fifth Squad, ' and took her short steps to catch up with the group.
Apprehending fugitives is her duty!
However.
"Stop, you don't need to go."
Tiandao used his sword sheath to hook the back of her collar, lifted Little Danika up like a kitten, and placed her aside.
In response, Little Danika blinked and then obediently ran behind a stone pillar in the distance, hiding behind it and peeking out with only her round eyes.
Before long, only Tiandao and Yu Chen remained facing each other at the entrance to the Bridge of Gears and Brass.
And not far away, Liu Ma hesitated between helping Yu Chen and helping Chen Kong.
As if he couldn't see Liu Ma beside him, Tiandao spoke to Yu Chen not far away, saying, "Colluding with outsiders to replace guards, and even attacking his own colleagues at a critical moment."
" Yu Chen, by doing this, you're essentially gambling your entire life away. Is it worth it?"
When faced with this question about the Tiandao, Yu Chen's response was quite nonchalant.
"There's no such thing as worth it or not. Since Vivian's father saved my life back then, I can't just stand by and watch her stupidly go and die, can I?"
"People should learn to be grateful, shouldn't they?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Chen suddenly changed the subject, his eyes sharpening.
"Stop pretending, Captain. Don't tell me you don't know what Vivian is trying to do, and you're just too lazy to stop her, right?"
Tiandao coldly replied, "Other people's affairs are none of my business; I only do my duty."
Yu Chen chuckled, as if he had heard a joke.
It should be noted that during this period he was unable to find the key evidence that the Church had orchestrated the whole thing.
However, they clearly found some evidence that the origin of the ' Shui Mo ' was unclear.
An ordinary calligraphy enthusiast in Deep Blue Metropolis?
His Fifth Squad captain is far from being as 'ordinary' as he claims.
After all, how many of those who can get involved with the ' Hidden Star Society ' are ordinary people?
However, although he had no concrete evidence, he could not fathom the true purpose of the Tiandao.
But one thing he was certain of was that the Fifth Squad Captain in front of him had no small ambitions.
But none of that matters anymore, because he cares more about whether he can repay the favor he owed back then.
In order to continue to buy time for Vivian and the others, Yu Chen simply resorted to his "talking skills".
"Captain, I bet you're well aware of the despicable things the Steam Church has done over the years, right?"
Upon hearing this, Tiandao neither nodded nor shook his head, but calmly raised his left hand.
Seeing this, Yu Chen, who was already prepared, raised the pistol in his right hand, which was engraved with silver-white feather patterns and had a bird relief inlaid on the gun barrel—the Silver Falcon.
"Smash it, Silver Falcon."
Bang!
A unique silver-white flash of light burst from the muzzle, and the Silver Falcon relief on the gun seemed to come alive, its wing pattern trembling slightly.
The next second, a special silver-white bullet engraved with feather patterns tore through the air, turning into a streak of light, and rushed straight towards the raised left hand of the Tiandao.
Having witnessed the power of the Tiandao's ' Star Energy Technique: Ink Coffin ' firsthand, he couldn't let the Tiandao unleash this technique so easily.
Because once he uses this move...
My so-called 'procrastination' will become a complete joke.
Moreover, his fighting style is primarily focused on suppression, never giving his opponent a chance to strike calmly.
Faced with the silver-white bullet that Yu Chen was attacking at lightning speed, Tiandao swung out his right hand's ' Shattered Star ' and slashed it away.
But just as the Shattered Star's blade was about to strike the bullet...
The silvery-white streak of light suddenly seemed to sprout a pair of silver wings, made a sharp turn, and then shot towards Tiandao's shoulder at a very tricky angle!
At the critical moment, the moon-white captain's robe on Tiandao's shoulder was suddenly stained with ink, transforming into an invisible 'armor' that forcefully blocked the surprise attack.
bite!
A crisp yet ear-piercing collision sound rang out.
Yu Chen's special silver-white bullet was deflected by the black star energy on Tiandao's shoulder and fell to the ground.
Upon seeing this, Yu Chen's pupils contracted.
Because although he had considered that his ' Silver Falcon ' would have little chance of harming ' Shui Mo, ' a monster suspected of having an ' Star Energy Value S+,' he was still concerned.
But he never expected that he couldn't even break through his most basic 'star energy protection'.
It's important to know that even a trainee Star Envoy without Star Source can perform this basic application of star energy.
However, there are very few people like ' Shui Mo ' who can ignore attacks from Star Envoy of the same level simply by relying on their own powerful Star Energy Value.
" Vice Captain Yu, if this is all the real strength you have, then I may have to end this boring game of rebellion."
Upon hearing Tiandao's words, Yu Chen took a deep breath, then smiled and said, "Is that so? Then it seems I really need to show some of my true abilities."
After saying that, Yu Chen launched a rapid barrage of shots from the ' Silver Falcon ' in his right hand.
In response, Tiandao strolled towards Yu Chen as if taking a leisurely walk.
He kept swinging his knife, cutting down bullet after bullet.
For a moment, the clanging of metal could be heard incessantly.
However, just as Tiandao approached within ten meters of Yu Chen.
An anomaly has occurred.
"Devour him, Azure Owl!"
Yu Chen raised his left hand and fired a disc-shaped electromagnetic projectile from his silver-gray hand cannon named ' Azure Owl '.
The cannonball sliced through the air, creating a gust of wind, and crashed heavily into the Tiandao.
In the blink of an eye, the Tiandao Dao unleashed the ' Shattered Star ', withstanding the attack head-on.
Bang!
Amidst the Blazing Fire from the collision between the Shattered Star and the Azure Owl, the Tiandao, which had never retreated, slid across the ground, creating a crater more than ten meters long before finally coming to a stop.
Looking at Tiandao's just-steadied figure, Yu Chen chuckled from afar, "Captain, be careful."
The next second, the silver bullets scattered all around the Tiandao Dao suddenly trembled simultaneously.
Then, as if drawn by some invisible thread, they instantly transformed into countless meteors, hurtling towards the Tiandao.
Or rather, it flew towards the Tiandao and landed on the 'magnetic' Azure Owl bullet beneath its feet.
In an instant, countless silvery-white streaks of light surged from all directions of the Tiandao, forming an impenetrable silvery-white rain curtain.
The Tiandao was completely swallowed up in the dazzling light and the swirling dust.
