Chapter 116
Just when they were in despair.
A slightly angry voice came from the explosion.
"Why is it happening again! Do you guys really have a grudge against my clothes?! I just picked them up!"
Upon hearing the sound, everyone looked in surprise at the figure emerging from the smoke and dust.
A red-haired Angel was seen frantically expressing her dissatisfaction.
Chapter 92: Minion, Minion~ [1 update]
It happened the instant the red-haired Angel appeared.
The reptilian humanoid monster immediately launched an attack on the completely naked Angel!
The reptilian monster's form suddenly blurred, and the air was ripped apart by a shrill scream! Its claws swept towards the Angel's throat with speed exceeding that of a bullet, its scale-covered knuckles leaving five scarlet afterimages in the air!
Snap!
After a loud bang, Xiao Huasheng was sent flying like a spinning top.
But seeing that the Angel had not been torn to pieces, the reptilian lizard monster felt anger.
Its vertical pupils suddenly contracted, its bulging muscles twisted violently, and its other claw ripped towards the Angel's abdomen in mid-air with an even more ferocious motion!
The claws, powerful enough to pierce through steel plates, swept across Xiao Huasheng's body with a foul stench, then slammed this Cement Angel into the ground from mid-air!
Then its tail lashed out like a steel whip at the Angel's forehead, while its gaping maw opened wide, its gleaming white fangs biting fiercely at her neck!
Click!
The sound of teeth clashing was crisp and pleasant, as if they were biting into something indestructible.
After hitting its tooth, the lizard monster immediately let go, staring in shock at the thing on the ground.
The Angel lay helplessly on the spot, without making any movement.
The monster was stunned.
Its claws, its fangs, its tail strikes—all attacks powerful enough to instantly slaughter an entire army—were utterly ineffective at this moment.
"Have you made enough of a scene...?"
The red-haired Angel sighed and waited until the opponent finished fighting.
She slowly got up from the ground and glanced at the monster in front of her.
One glance was enough to shock Xiao Huasheng.
"682? Huh? What happened to you?"
The monster in front of me really does look like 682 crawling, but it's obviously a smaller version of 682, and it doesn't look quite the same.
It's similar to the difference between Shendu and Little Dragon in Jackie Chan Adventures.
The two are very similar, but they are very different in the details, which is why Xiao Huasheng mistakenly identified them.
"Wait a minute... you wouldn't happen to be its illegitimate child, would you?!" Xiao Huasheng stared in shock at the monster's appearance, his pupils dilating in disbelief.
The lizard monster became enraged when it failed to dismember the human in front of it immediately.
The next moment, it launched another attack!
"Roar! Ro..."
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The lizard monster's attacks rained down like a storm, its claws and fangs each strike carrying terrifying power capable of shattering armor, relentlessly bombarding Xiao Huasheng's body!
Its right claw slashed down like a battle axe, the tip scraping against the Angel's shoulder and sending Mars.
The monster's attack rhythm quickened, its claws becoming afterimages as it frantically tore, pounded, and pierced!
Each impact produced a deafening, dull thud as it struck the concrete; its claws weren't hitting flesh and blood, but rather pounding against an incredibly hard rock!
As Xiao Huasheng was being beaten, he silently closed his eyes, feeling the attack that wasn't even a real attack.
She muttered a complaint, "Can we stop for a moment?"
But the lizard monster wouldn't stop.
"Aww!"
Clang!
Its fangs snapped down again, the sharp teeth biting hard into Xiao Huasheng's arm, but it felt like biting into some kind of super-hard cement; the roots of its teeth vibrated, and Mars flew!
It shook its head and tried to tear at the angel's skin, but the Angel's skin didn't even have a dent. Instead, the shock made its teeth go numb!
The lizard monster swung its tail violently, the thick tail lashing out like a battering ram and striking Xiao Huasheng's side. The shockwave from the swung tail shattered the surrounding ground!
But the Angel remained motionless; instead, its tail was bounced off by the recoil, its scales cracked, and dark green blood seeped out!
It went completely mad, its claws pounding wildly like a pile driver.
The ground cracked under the impact, and debris flew everywhere, but the Angel's skin remained smooth as ever, without even a scratch.
Finally, the lizard monster stopped, panting heavily, its vertical pupils contracting sharply as it stared incredulously at the unharmed "human" before it.
Xiao Huasheng yawned, then suddenly thought of something fun to do, and immediately put his hand in front of him and made two middle fingers.
"Miscellaneous fish~ miscellaneous fish~"
Clearly, the monster in front of it didn't know that Xiao Huasheng was cosplaying as a female ghost, but Xiao Huasheng's actions were definitely enough to infuriate it.
During the repeated beatings, Xiao Huasheng had already experienced the strength of the bathhouse attendant in front of him.
Having been beaten many times, the Angel could roughly assess the opponent's combat ability simply by observing the number of blows received.
"You probably have nothing to do with 682. You're not as powerful as that lizard, not even remotely related to it," Xiao Huasheng said jokingly, then with a thought, he made a move.
Boom!
In an instant, the lizard monster was pressed to the ground by the abnormal gravity of the surrounding environment.
Glancing at the energy bar that was dropping downwards, Xiao Huasheng raised his gun with a touch of heartache and aimed it at the lizard monster in front of him.
"It's a bit of a waste, but goodbye nonetheless."
When Xiao Huasheng poured 10% of his energy into the bullet, intending to give the guy in front of him a quick death.
Just then, Angela made a suggestion.
[Our staff is more than capable of dealing with these weaklings. This is a good opportunity for them to hone their skills. Although they have combat experience with EGO, they haven't actually used it before.]
"Is that so..." Upon hearing Angela's idea of using the monster in front of him as a sparring partner, Xiao Huasheng hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Getting more exercise isn't a bad thing.
With a slight reach of his hand, three figures appeared in front of Xiao Huasheng in the blink of an eye.
Ku Tang, former interim director of the Foundation's large facilities.
Ai Er Lan, former squad commander of the Foundation.
Roxy, former member of the Ultramarines 3rd Company.
The three were each wearing different EGO Gear and wielding different weapons, facing the lizard monster in front of them.
However, Angela clearly managed to get the three of them in sync quite well, and they immediately went into battle mode.
"Manager!" Ku Tang's eyes lit up when she saw Xiao Huasheng; she clearly wanted to hug her, but the current situation didn't allow her to do so.
"I wonder when my scheduled vacation will finally come. I need to at least see my wife and kids," Ai Er Lan muttered, a cigarette dangling from his lips, as he complained about the unscrupulous company.
"For the Emperor, for my late father, I will fight with all my might." Among the three, there was a giant, whose style was completely out of place with the other two, but he still stood at the front of the line.
All three had undergone varying degrees of Distortion and modification by Angela, who then assigned them corresponding responsibilities.
Ku Tang is a ranged mage who also acts as a healer, Ai Er Lan is the off-tank, and Ultramarines Roxy is the main tank.
Clearly, all three were very experienced and immediately set up their formation.
Chapter 93: All Operations, No Numerical Values [2 Updates]
Angela discovered that, apart from level, the most important factor for all EGO Gear is its compatibility with EGO.
The powerful EGO isn't something everyone can use, just like how Ku Tang failed to eliminate anyone with the Silent Orchestra's scythe earlier.
This wasn't because Ku Tang had stopped using her power; rather, it was simply that she could only exert this much power.
It was just a tactic to scare the other person with Ku Tang at the time.
Now that they have acquired suitable weapons, their combat capabilities have improved significantly.
Before Xiao Huasheng could speak, the three modified superheroes immediately rushed out.
They immediately engaged in combat with the lizard monster in front of them!
Ku Tang's EGO Weapon: In the In the Name of Love and Hate (Magic Wand)
Ai Er Lan's EGO weapon: Eye Lamp (Hammer)
Roxy's EGO weapon: Piercing Bliss (Spear)
The three of them immediately rushed forward.
Boom!
Roxy charged forward first, his 2.3-meter-tall steel body crashing into the lizard monster like a tank! But compared to the monster before him, his size didn't give him any advantage.
This lizard monster stood a towering 4.6 meters tall, making it an absolute monster that even the Ultramarines felt the pressure of.
The spear "Piercing Bliss" traced a fiery white trajectory, its tip piercing the air with a sonic boom, aiming straight for the monster's throat!
The lizard monster dodged to the side, the spear grazing its scales and sending Mars, while it swung its claws towards Roxy's waist and abdomen.
Clang!!
Ai Er Lan's heavy hammer "Eye Lamp" came crashing down from the side, its eye-covered surface colliding with the claws, the shockwave shattering the ground within a five-meter radius!
The cigarette butt flew from the corner of his mouth and turned to ash in the blast.
"Looks like only becoming a monster can deal with you monsters, right?"
He grinned, and suddenly exerted force with the hammer handle, launching a second blow with an even more ferocious arc as it slammed into the monster's knee!
Sensing the threat, the monster roared and leaped into the air, only to be intercepted mid-air.
"Stop!" Ku Tang's figure plummeted from the sky, his magic wand " In the In the Name of Love and Hate" scattering dozens of stars as he waved it.
The moment those seemingly cute specks of light touched the monster's back, they exploded with an impact comparable to a high-explosive grenade!
This is no joke if it hits you.
The lizard monster's scales were torn off by the blast, and its dark green blood was vaporized by the intense heat as soon as it splattered out.
In just one round of attacks, Xiao Huasheng witnessed the team's potential.
"Wow!" Xiao Huasheng stared at the scene intently.
She herself hadn't expected her employees to be so capable; they were more than capable of handling these minor conflicts.
Xiao Huasheng conjured a bucket of popcorn in her hands, and she popped the kernels into her mouth one by one, trying to look more like a manager.
"I want some too," Angela said, asking Xiao Huasheng.
With 91% of her brainpower, Angela's application of Reality Warping naturally lacked Xiao Huasheng's imagination; Angela could always come up with many details.
Therefore, Angela's desserts were not as delicious or dreamy as Xiao Huasheng's.
Before long, the two Angel, in different spaces, were watching their employees and real crickets fighting while holding the same bowl of popcorn.
On the other side, everyone at the Foundation was stunned.
Inside the outdoor site, all the researchers' expressions froze.
"Holy crap..." one of the surviving researchers couldn't help but exclaim.
His gaze was fixed intently on the screen.
Those three figures dressed in strange equipment were actually suppressing Entity 354-4 head-on, which even heavy firepower could not harm in the slightest!
"What kind of weapons are they using?!" another task force member's voice was hoarse, his face Distortion with shock beneath his helmet.
He had witnessed firsthand how this lizard monster tore apart an entire MTF squad.
Bullets ricocheted off its scales, rockets only made it stagger a few steps, and now... that strange hammer covered in eyes actually made the monster's knees bend?!
