(Wow, a new patron appeared on the first day of release! You guys are awesome! Thanks to [Bai Xiaosheng's brother] for the donation, I'm going to go all out!!! Thank you everyone for your monthly tickets~~)

By now, it was completely dark, and the brightly lit shopping mall was teeming with people. Most of them were ordinary working-class people who only had time to enjoy this leisurely atmosphere in the evenings, and they were dressed quite appropriately. Bade blended into the Bato City, standing out slightly. However, with a population of over 24 million, it was not uncommon for people to see oddly dressed individuals, and no one paid much attention.

Bade wandered around the mall again, seemingly getting hungry. He bought a bunch of meat skewers from a food stall, a good forty or fifty skewers, and sat down to eat them.

"Won't you feel stuffed during the battle after eating so much?" Liliath said irritably after seeing the scene in the video. She didn't like Bade at all; he was not only arrogant but also rude, and he didn't even have proper table manners when eating.

Bade naturally ignored the stares of others and continued to eat heartily, seemingly unaware of the danger approaching.

Just then, Gu Ding noticed that the security cameras at the entrance showed the military personnel had entered the mall and were rapidly evacuating the crowd. Three gunners, each armed with a powerful armor-piercing sniper rifle, aimed at Bade's head, ready to pull the trigger without hesitation at the first command. They would be delighted to see Bade's head shatter like a watermelon.

Liliath also noticed the gunsmiths' positions. "These three gunsmiths are all very strong, and they are basically in the best positions. They adjusted their breathing rhythm in less than two seconds and entered combat mode. Although it is the result of training, it is still quite remarkable."

Bade was still fighting with all his might against the meat skewers in his hands, seemingly unaware that his head was being aimed at by the gunner.

Chat felt things were going a little too smoothly. He looked at Kellum nodded at him. Only then did he give the order and wave his hand. The moment that gesture was made, the first sniper fired.

Gu Ding held his breath as he watched this scene. He knew that if it were him, avoiding a headshot wouldn't be difficult, but injury would be hard to avoid. A good gunsmith could accurately predict an opponent's movements. Moreover, the military's gunsmiths were deployed in a three-shot formation; regardless of whether the first shot hit, as soon as the enemy made a move, a second gunsmith would immediately follow up. If the second shot also missed, a third would follow up.

Strangely, the first sniper pulled the trigger, but no sound rang out. He looked down at his gun, puzzled, and saw a black chain, like a thin snake, creeping out from the muzzle and quickly wrapping around his neck. In an instant, the first gunsmith's neck snapped.

When the second gunsmith saw that the first shot had not been fired, he immediately realized what was happening and pulled the trigger as well, only to meet the same fate as the first gunsmith.

The third gunsmith also died instantly.

This peculiar ability surprised even Gu Ding. "What are those black chains? Why do they seem to have a life of their own?"

"It's not Source Power, but a special kind of spiritual power. We still don't quite understand how he did it. Logically speaking, someone who can materialize spiritual power to this extent must be at least a demigod." The Sea Emperor also seemed a little puzzled. Materialization is indeed very difficult to achieve, but the flexible movements of those chains just now were almost as if they had life of their own.

Liliath also somewhat surprised. She vaguely felt that even Vannaribo's mental control did not seem to have reached this level.

Three gunsmiths died on the spot in less than ten seconds, while the man himself remained motionless, still eating his kebab. This bizarre scene made Chat suspect that Bade might have other powerful accomplices. But at this point, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and proceed.

He waved to Kellum and the other man, signaling them to assist.

The three then led their team to surround Bade from three different directions.

"Oh, it's the military. What a coincidence, running into you here." Bade hadn't finished his skewer of meat, and he didn't intend to stop.

"Hey, stop pretending. You spotted us a long time ago, and you just killed three of our snipers," Bald Head Bode shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Hey, judging by the rank on your shoulder, you should be a lieutenant general, right? Don't you know you can't just say things without evidence? Be careful, or I'll sue you for defamation." Bade took another bite of his skewer, chewed a few times, swallowed hard, and then retorted, "I've been eating here the whole time. Did any of you see me touch anything?"

"Stop making excuses. Everyone knows what happened just now. Even if you didn't do it, it was your accomplice. You'd better surrender and suffer less." Chat frowned. He felt that the other party's fearlessness must be due to something they were relying on.

"Do you want to hear the truth?" Bade then stood up, casually tossing the remaining skewers into a nearby trash can. "My companions aren't actually in this building... So, what happened just now was all my doing! Because my power is beyond your imagination."

As soon as he finished speaking, black chains bound the feet of the twenty-seven military personnel. The chains, as thick as a thumb, climbed upwards rapidly as if they were alive, and within ten seconds, they had completely enveloped all twenty-seven people. The chains tightened continuously, and within a minute, twenty-four people had died, their bones deformed from the chains.

The remaining three were three Eighth Order Gene Body. They had struggled to break free and were panting heavily.

Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, the three felt a chill run down their spines, but that feeling was quickly replaced by anger.

Gu Ding and his companions witnessed the entire scene.

"This guy is too powerful..." Gu Ding was seeing Bade in action for the first time and was shocked.

Even Liliath had always been somewhat dissatisfied with Bade's various actions, remained silent this time, clearly shocked by Bade's strength.

"This ability shouldn't be his own," Sea Emperor suddenly said. "Leaving aside the power of the technique, to materialize mental energy to this extent, he must be at least a demigod. I wasn't sure before because only one chain appeared, but now it seems that even a powerhouse who has just advanced to the demigod level could not achieve such large-scale materialization."

"His ability must come from the metal chain hanging around his waist," Bigge suddenly spoke up. He had been a listener all along and rarely offered his opinion on such matters. "This is what Darkness told me. That thing is a demigod artifact that was used by a god."

Besides Gu Ding and his group, Walter also witnessed this scene. He was originally the planner and didn't have time to waste watching individual battles. However, Bade's reaction earlier had been somewhat unusual; even after sending out three squads, he was still uneasy and wanted to check on the situation.

Unexpectedly, upon opening the video, he witnessed the annihilation of twenty-four people. In less than two minutes, the thirty-person team was reduced to only three leaders. The enemy's slaughter speed was even faster than that of Ninth-Order Gene Body like himself.

He quickly dialed Sharp's contact number.

"What's wrong?" Sharp knew that Walter must have encountered something serious to call him.

"Senior, Bade is in big trouble. We completely underestimated his strength. The three squads we sent out were wiped out by him in an instant, leaving only the three captains struggling to hold on." Walter didn't intend to hide his decision-making error. At this time, what was most needed was to find a solution to the problem.

"How could this be? He was only a Seventh Order Gene Body, and he had just been promoted recently." Sharp was also stunned. He found it unbelievable. Every squad in the military was led by an Eighth Order Gene Body, with seven of them being Seventh Order Gene Body and the remaining two being Sixth-Order Gene Body. Moreover, three squads were wiped out at the same time, which completely proved that the information about Bade's strength that they had obtained earlier was ridiculously wrong.

"Senior, should we send two ninth-rank generals over?" Walter asked. He was also a general, and to appoint generals, he needed the approval of a senior general.

"I'll go! You tell Emily that the two of you will be in charge here for now." Sharp was silent for a moment before making his decision. "Send me the address."

After receiving the address, they disappeared from the port in a few leaps.

Gu Ding also noticed Sharp's actions at the port, and he sent Bade a message: "Let's finish the battle as soon as possible, Sharp is here!"

Inside the arena, Bade remained remarkably composed despite being surrounded by three powerful military figures. He even glanced down at the message from Gu Ding. Then, he looked up at the three and chuckled, "Heh heh, Gu Ding is quite loyal. He just told me Sharp is here. So, I'll take care of the three of you first, then wait for Sharp."

Hearing this, the three finally understood why Walter had sent reinforcements at the last minute. They even suspected that Gu Ding's team was also lurking nearby. However, they misunderstood. Gu Ding had never intended to join forces with Bade; he simply wanted to cause some trouble for the military and prevent Bade from being captured.

Although the battle ended in a crushing defeat, the news of Sharp's personal arrival still gave the three men a jolt. At the very least, it meant that the arrogant guy in front of them would definitely be killed or captured alive by Sharp.

Bade reached out and grabbed the chain around his waist. A strange power instantly surged from the chain, which seemed to come alive, leaping out with an eerie speed that the three of them couldn't even catch a glimpse with their naked eyes. When the three of them realized what was happening, they found themselves bound inside a black spider. From the spider, streams of eerie black energy silently seeped into their bodies.

In less than three minutes, the three bodies rapidly shriveled, as if something had drained all their bodily fluids. The black spider finally disappeared, and the three desiccated corpses fell to the ground from mid-air. The chains around Bade's waist returned to their original state. (To be continued.)
