The Gallows
At first, Lin Yu didn't quite understand why Li Nian felt confident after meeting Wang Yuyang.
Even ignoring the colossal creature in the sky, and assuming that this thing called the "Wrath Throne" won't intervene...
The "δ Group Leader," who has just received an equipment upgrade, certainly doesn't look like someone to be trifled with.
If it were a master like "A'yu," "Li Hua," or "Robin," they would either possess unpredictable and versatile abilities or use Item powerful items, so taking down this guy shouldn't be a problem.
After all, they were "Tier 3" experts—even among the strongest in the "Tier 3".
However, Wang Yuyang was only a "Tier 2" being, and even the same "Divine Rank" as Li Nian.
Even if the opponent does possess considerable strength and cleared out the underlings quite quickly, why does Li Nian feel a sense of "it's all settled"?
Until Lin Yu saw what Wang Yuyang looked like at that moment.
He stood at the broken edge at the top of the carriage, looking down at the interior of carriage number one.
"That's an exaggeration..."
Fu Luo couldn't help but murmur aloud.
At this moment, Wang Yuyang was still wearing a black casual shirt, but there was an extra layer of cold, mechanical aura over it.
The same exoskeleton-like equipment covered Wang Yuyang's body—but compared to the streamlined, technologically advanced, and multifunctional external devices worn by the leader of Group δ, Wang Yuyang's "armor" had a colder, more rugged style, like a battle-ready standard-issue piece of equipment that had been forged through countless trials.
The exposed springs and gears form the Mechanical Transmission Structure, and there also appears to be some bright red wires mixed in.
"Sorry, it was a bit difficult to visualize this thing, so I'm a little late."
Wang Yuyang spoke, his gaze shifted to the leader of Group δ, and he spoke in a cold voice.
"Great, you look like you're into 'Mecha' too. This battle looks like it'll be something I'm really looking forward to!"
The leader of Group δ turned his head away.
"And who are you?"
"Fine—since you're trying to die with a bunch of junk, I'll grant your wish!"
As he spoke, the mechanical arm on his left shoulder opened, shooting out a scarlet light.
The attack was aimed directly at Wang Yuyang's face, but...
"Sizzle!"
Wang Yuyang did not dodge; he simply raised his hand, and the white steel on his forearm blocked the attack.
And they were completely unharmed.
"Unorthodox methods"
After throwing out a comment, Wang Yuyang exerted force with both legs—the mechanical parts outside his lower limbs emitted the sound of steel deforming—and then he rushed towards the leader of Group δ like a meteorite falling from the sky!
"Bang!"
The two metallic objects collided, sparks flying and the clang of metal echoing through the air!
Two giant blades appeared in Wang Yuyang's hands, and then two thick iron pieces, almost as big as window slats, danced and flew around lightly!
Even though the leader of Group δ had four mechanical arms, he was now being dragged into Wang Yuyang's rhythm and was actually engaged in a fierce battle.
Lin Yu glanced at it and spoke up.
"Wow, Wing Chun Eight-Cut Broadsword— Brother Wang knows quite a variety of skills."
Fu Luo exclaimed in surprise, "You could tell that? You've practiced this before?"
"If I had practiced, would I have been beaten so badly?" Lin Yu calmly shook his head. "I just saw it in a movie... Haven't you seen it? <The Master>, it's about Wing Chun."
"I only know Ip Man," Li Nian said with a smile, "I'd take on ten of them!"
The three Player chatted casually, but Baron Coleman and Pankto had recovered, dared not relax.
"Don't you need our help?"
"Pankto a low voice."
"I can't get involved in a battle of this level," Li Nian waved her hand. "Just don't cause trouble... Trust me, I know his strength."
Baron Coleman looked worriedly at the Wrath Throne above him.
"Even if we're worried about potentially destroying the 'Despair Train' and don't resort to weapons of mass destruction, with this thing around, that guy will have a tough time losing!"
Sure enough, what happened next confirmed Baron Coleman's fears.
Under a barrage of attacks, Wang Yuyang seized an opportunity and severed both of his opponent's mechanical arms with two slashes.
But before they could press their advantage and expand their gains, new parts flew out from the Wrath Throne to replace the damaged ones.
It acts like a massive logistics hub, supporting the leader of Group δ and giving him almost unlimited room for error.
Upon seeing this, Wang Yuyang frowned slightly.
"I can't believe such a thing exists."
The leader of Group δ sneered, "What, are you still fantasizing about a fair fight?"
As he spoke, after switching to the new robotic arm, he suddenly launched another attack.
Two new robotic arms clamped down on Wang Yuyang's dual swords, while the turret behind him exploded in reverse, pushing the two of them onto the roof of the vehicle!
"I'm not here to engage in Noble Duel with you—I'm here to annihilate you!"
The leader of Group δ roared again, and then launched a counterattack against Wang Yuyang from the roof of the car!
The Despair Train roared past at high speed, with a fierce wind sweeping across the rooftop, making it difficult even to stand still.
Especially after Wang Yuyang was taken out of the carriage, the Wrath Throne in the sky seemed to finally be able to unleash some of its long-range firepower because Wang Yuyang was away from the Despair Furnace in carriage number one!
The floating cannons below flew out like a flock of birds, unleashing a dense barrage of bullets at Wang Yuyang.
Pankto: "Damn it! We have to help him!"
But Lin Yu stopped Pankto.
"Don't be impatient."
Li Nian remained calm.
Although Lin Yu didn't understand Wang Yuyang, he understood Li Nian since she had already spoken up.
Moreover, he had a vague feeling...
Although reaching the roof of the car seemed to put Wang Yuyang at a disadvantage.
But Lin Yu always felt that this was exactly what Wang Yuyang had hoped for.
This guy first appeared on the roof of this train!
It's possible that this whole situation was deliberately induced by Wang Yuyang.
Just as this thought crossed Lin Yu's mind, Wang Yuyang spoke up again in a loud voice.
"This is troublesome, Yuqiang!"
Just as Wang Yuyang finished speaking, Pan Yuqiang's cheerful voice rang out.
"Received."
Then...
The girl's figure appeared in the shadows behind the top of the carriage.
Pan Yuqiang smiled and raised her hands—and in her hands appeared something rather strange.
It resembled a thick hemp rope, but seemed to connect to something behind it, extending into the darkness behind.
"Although a detailed investigation has not yet been conducted, your actions are already sufficient to constitute a crime."
She took a light step forward, and Wang Yuyang blocked the attacks from the floating cannons for her.
Pan Yuqiang reached out her hand, and the rope was then hung on the group leader's body.
Then...
Tighten!
He fell to the ground!
Drag it!
It was just an ordinary hemp rope, yet it seemed to possess an irresistible force—it couldn't even be cut.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
The leader of Group δ clung desperately to the rope wrapped around his neck in an attempt to resist, but in the end it was all in vain.
Soon, his heavy body was hoisted high—the light of the Wrath Throne followed, revealing the throne hidden in the shadows...
"The gallows! [The murder weapon] is [the gallows]'s 'killer'!"
Fu Luo cried out in shock.
"Citalopram... it turns out it's 'the executioner'!"
Pan Yuqiang, who was on the roof of the train, turned around and looked at Fu Luo, then smiled.
"Oh dear, we've been discovered... 'Detective,' you really know a lot!"
"Then please keep this a secret for me, okay?"
After Pan Yuqiang finished speaking, she suddenly turned around and looked at Wang Yuyang, who was about to jump into the carriage.
"Stop! Yu Yang —I didn't mean to silence you when I said that!"
