"I don't want to wear this. It's so embarrassing."
Lin Xiao looked at the black skintight combat suit before him and desperately shook his head.
"Why weren't you embarrassed when you were taking advantage of me? Put it on already. The combat suit can defend against ordinary bullets, and the rear command can support you too!"
Lian Feng's face darkened. Why was Lin Xiao acting like a child? He even needed to be coaxed into putting on a combat suit.
"There's nothing embarrassing about pursuing a beautiful life, but this is a skintight suit!"
"Put the fucking thing on."
Lian Feng truly could not stand what Lin Xiao was saying anymore. Was he so righteous whenever he bullied her? That furious shout vented the dissatisfaction in her heart and finally made Lin Xiao behave.
"Fine... Don't be mad. Come help me put it on."
Lin Xiao actually stripped down until he was wearing only a pair of shorts, then stood there.
Lian Feng covered her face. Fortunately, this was the changing room and there was no one else around, or people would have thought they were about to do something.
As for Lin Xiao's naked body, she had seen it often enough to get used to it. As long as he did not show her that thing, she could accept it.
With Lian Feng's help, Lin Xiao put on the combat suit. After putting on a white lab coat over it, he was finally satisfied.
As for clothes, he only loved white lab coats. He could go without anything else, but not this.
"Lian Feng, I suddenly feel like you're really good to me. I used to do research alone, and it could get pretty boring sometimes. Now that I have you to discuss things with, my thoughts are much clearer."
"Hmph, it's my job. Don't get any ideas."
"Haha, I won't. Let's go."
CPH4 actually had two major flaws. The first was the lifespan issue. If one could not raise their brain development to 50% before their cellular lifespan ended and activate a new divine body, death was inevitable.
However, Lin Xiao had resolved the lifespan issue at the cost of evolution speed. It merely made his body's energy requirements much greater.
There was another issue, though it could not really be considered a flaw. It was only natural.
As intelligence increased, rationality would occupy an absolute dominant position, suppressing emotions.
Lin Xiao did not want to become a deity without feelings or desires, so he was working hard at it.
Whether he was harassing Lian Feng or inviting Qi Lin, he wanted to bring the things he had once liked before his eyes, reminding himself that he was human and would always be human.
That was also why his personality had become somewhat strange and gave Lian Feng such a headache.
Whenever Lin Xiao felt even the slightest emotional fluctuation, he would release it to the fullest. This was one of his methods of resisting rationality.
This trip still used a military helicopter. Since he sensed danger, Lin Xiao had not brought any guards.
Lian Feng, however, insisted on coming along. As for what kind of protection Du Kao had arranged, Lin Xiao did not know.
Giant Hero City was close by. In less than an hour, they had landed at a hidden airport in Giant Hero City.
"All units, pay close attention. Do not miss any possible developments."
Inside Giant Xia's Command Center, everyone was at their posts today. Du Kao had been driven to distraction by Lin Xiao's willful trip.
If something happened to Lin Xiao while he was under their protection, the consequences would be severe. Not only would the Ministry of Science and Technology turn upside down, Commander Huang would likely be impossible to answer to as well. This would escalate into a political matter.
"Yu Qin, closely monitor Major General Lin's vital signs!"
Even Sun Wukong, hidden in the sky above Lin Xiao, received a communication from Du Kao.
"Wukong, you must ensure Major General Lin's safety."
"Lao Du, don't worry. With me here, no one can harm Major General Lin."
The Command Center remained on high alert. Although everything was calm for the moment, they could not let down their guard.
After Lin Xiao got off the plane at the airport, he did not head into the city. He was not here for fun; he had his own purpose.
Water Chicken and Myna were already bringing Qi Lin over. He only needed to wait here. If the enemy did not appear, he would pick her up and return directly.
The ancients said that one could be a thief for a thousand days, but no one could guard against thieves for a thousand days. He had been watched constantly, and it made him deeply uncomfortable.
It was as if a wild beast were lurking in the darkness, ready to leap out and bite him viciously when he was not paying attention.
This time, he had the Xia Lan Mecha. He would lure the enemy out in one go and teach them a lesson they would never forget. They would probably behave themselves after that.
After witnessing an irresistible force, anyone who still dared to come would be brain-dead. No matter how many experience-point mobs they sent, he would not be afraid.
In the bustling downtown area of Giant Hero City, a small missile fell from the sky and crashed into the concrete street.
Boom!
The missile exploded violently, and the powerful shockwave threw the surrounding crowd to the ground.
Fortunately, the explosion's center was some distance from the crowd, so no one died.
"Ah!"
The sudden explosion instantly threw the pedestrians into chaos. Several more missiles descended from the sky and drilled into the surrounding high-rises.
Several more massive explosions followed, plunging the entire area into complete chaos. Panicked crowds fled everywhere.
In the sky, two gray mechas descended. Several gun barrels extended from their hands as they fired wildly at the surrounding buildings.
Their target was not the crowd, but the buildings. Their purpose was obvious: to create chaos.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
At the same time Giant Hero City came under attack, alarms began ringing in Giant Xia's Command Center.
"Report! Giant Hero City is under an unknown attack!"
"What? Switch the feed over."
"Report! The surveillance cameras at the scene have been destroyed. We have no live footage, only distant views."
On the Command Center's main screen, a distant view of the city appeared. Thick smoke was already billowing up from several locations.
"Contact Giant Hero City immediately and determine the situation!"
"Yes!"
The intelligence personnel immediately began contacting Giant Hero City's intelligence network to inquire about the situation.
"Report! The situation has been confirmed. Two unknown mechas have descended and are heavily damaging buildings."
"What are the casualties?"
"Civilian casualties are low. Their goal is destruction, but the police and special service units have suffered heavy losses."
Du Kao frowned. Recently, unconventional forces on Earth had been extremely active. The Hate People Alliance from The U.S. and the mysterious force targeting Lin Xiao were both examples.
Especially this mysterious force. This was already the second time it had openly attacked China.
Large weapons simply could not be used in a city like this. The only one capable of dealing with them was Sun Wukong.
But Sun Wukong had to protect Lin Xiao and could not split himself in two. This gave Du Kao an enormous headache. It seemed he had to contact Di Lena as soon as possible and activate the Super Gene.
"General Du Kao, this is Lin Xiao. Please have Sun Wukong go reinforce Giant Hero City."
"Lin Xiao? No, this may be their plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."
Lin Xiao's image suddenly appeared on the Command Center's main screen. He had the Super Brain. There was no reason for him not to know what Du Kao knew.
Besides, he was right next to Giant Hero City. He had already seen the enormous columns of smoke and could even hear the thunderous explosions.
"General Du Kao, a soldier's duty is to protect the people. If you won't go, then I'll go provide support myself."
The trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain was so obvious that anyone with eyes could see it. Lin Xiao naturally understood it too, but this was an open scheme.
Should they disregard the safety of the people, let ordinary troops suffer enormous casualties, and drive the enemy away?
Or should they send out China's only God of War to provide support? This choice truly put Du Kao in a difficult position.
In truth, Lin Xiao's value in Du Kao's heart far exceeded that of all Giant Hero City. But he was now also a soldier of China, which was why Du Kao hesitated.
Lin Xiao's words helped him make up his mind. He pressed the communication button connecting to Sun Wukong.
"Wukong, go reinforce Giant Hero City first. Resolve it as quickly as possible!"
"Got it, Lao Du. Old Sun is on his way!"
Du Kao rubbed his forehead. The situation in Giant Hero City should be under control now.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
Just as Du Kao's tense heart had begun to settle, another shrill alarm rang through the Command Center. Du Kao abruptly raised his head and looked at the screen.
"Report! The airport where Major General Lin is located is under attack!"
On the main screen, eight gray mechas descended from the sky carrying an iron cage.
The moment these mechas landed, they began firing missiles in all directions. Every aircraft at the airport was destroyed.
The troops stationed at the airport reacted quickly, beginning to establish defenses and block the mechas from entering the airport's interior.
Watching the chaotic scenes on the screen, cold sweat immediately broke out on Du Kao's forehead. There were actually eight of those things.
"Contact Wukong immediately and have him return to reinforce Major General Lin!"
Du Kao slammed the table. His premonition had been dead on. The moment Sun Wukong left, these people came.
"Yes!"
The communications officer began urgently transmitting the order. However, one of the mechas on the screen threw out a black sphere. A flash of light followed, and the main screen immediately turned to static.
"Report! The airport's signal has been jammed. The Great Sage is also being jammed, and we cannot communicate for the moment."
"Fuck, where did these people get such black technology? Remove the interference immediately and dispatch an emergency special operations squad."
Du Kao slumped into his chair. These people had prepared thoroughly enough to catch him off guard. Earth had enjoyed peaceful days for too long; even his vigilance had dulled.
