A dilemma

Snap snap snap...

"Yameng!" Qin Hong roared, suddenly standing up and shattering the mechanical arm in front of him. He touched his face, as if someone had woken him up in this way while he was sleeping.

"You're awake. I tried almost everything, but nothing worked. In the end, I had no choice but to resort to this brutal method."

The good news is, we succeeded. Using the Kuaiji Type Zero, we've located the place. Now, all we need to do is get there.

Landao Tianwu said with some joy, but Qin Hong did not answer eagerly this time. He just looked at the Projection in front of him. He remembered that his Tianwu had gone to Northern Europe and then disappeared without a trace, his fate unknown.

The Projection in front of him was simply his unwillingness to accept reality.

Bai Mo's iron arm disappeared and returned to his body, where a silver-white horse carried him and placed him on the ground.

Reines and Xu Fu rushed over in a panic. Xu Fu quickly placed his hand on Bai Mo's body and muttered:

"Shennong, you bestow upon your people the gift of the five grains."

Like rain after a long drought, Bai Mo took a deep breath, then got up, sat cross-legged, and activated the Asura Eternal Life Art to heal his injuries.

"Thank you." Bai Mo nodded to Xu Fu, who looked at his somewhat pale face, wanting to say something, but in the end could only shake his head helplessly.

"You're really pushing yourself too hard. If you keep going like this, you'll die sooner or later."

"Yes, I know."

"Why do I feel like you've died several times already..."

Taking a deep breath, Bai Mo recovered while recalling the white Giant Spirit's fighting style in his mind. Its control over power—no, it couldn't be called control anymore; it was practically a transformation, a transformation that defied common sense.

It can even isolate the opponent's Magnetic Field Power.

These changes gave Bai Mo a lot of inspiration. The road to learning is long, and being able to see further ahead is a great help.

"But for now, let's go check on Ritsuka and the others. It should be safe outside now. Let's head over there."

Underground, Ritsuka, having received the director's communication, immediately changed her choice and opted for a shorter route. She knew very well that the Giant Spirit outside originated from someone underground, and the greatest help Bai Mo was to eliminate that person.

After changing routes, they quickly approached the room where Landao Tianwu was. But unexpectedly, an obstacle appeared out of nowhere.

Hinako Akuta looked at Zhang Xianzhong, who was covered in blood, the killing intent in her eyes was almost solid. Although the man's strength was no longer what it used to be, he still managed to hold on for a while under the influence of the Heavenly Martial Killing Way.

"Damn it, you troublesome bastard, just die already!"

"Do you think I don't want to? Why don't you spare my life, help me dismantle this machine, and I'll lead the way!" Zhang Xianzhong clearly didn't want to fight; he just wanted to find a chance to escape.

Originally, the plan was to deal with these invaders themselves and then slowly wait for Bai Mo to be worn down by the four Giant Spirit. But the problem now is that Hinako Akuta is impossible to kill, and the Giant Spirit above seem to be in trouble as well.

Years of experience told him that the situation was bad and it was time to get out of there.

But his steel body was already under his control, leaving him no choice. And Hinako Akuta had no reason to help him.

Just as Hinako Akuta was about to launch another attack, Qin Liangyu said from the side:

"Miss Akuta, please take Ritsuka's intuition with you. Leave this to me."

"You?" Hinako Akuta looked at Qin Liangyu. As an elf, she was completely immune to attacks, which was why she was able to inflict such damage on him. But if it were Qin Liangyu, who was just an ordinary human, he probably wouldn't last more than a few rounds against the Heavenly Martial Killing Way.

"Leave it to me, I... I should have fought him to the death a long time ago."

Hinako Akuta glanced at her, then grabbed Ritsuka.

"Hey, wait, we can't."

"Enough with the nonsense. Since you've already made up your mind, saying anything more would be an insult to that mindset."

Hearing Hinako Akuta's words, Ritsuka said nothing more. She nodded.

"... Okay, let's take care of that guy in there as soon as possible."

The two rushed past Zhang Xianzhong, Zhang Xianzhong didn't want to stop them at all, but the body still couldn't help trying to block them. Ritsuka struck Grand with a backhand, and the oldest curse activated the curse left by Hinako Akuta, causing him to fall to the ground uncontrollably.

"Fine, at least those two are gone. Hehe, go on, better kill that bastard and get my freedom... Hey, little girl, how about we talk about something?"

"We'll just have a quick fight, and then I'll spare your life. In return, you'll do me a favor, okay?"

Zhang Xianzhong's body was half mechanical, his face covered in blood, some of it his own, some of it his Hinako Akuta's. Combined with his sallow skin, he looked like a tiger feasting on its prey.

"Convenient? What right do you have to use the word 'convenient' to me? Look at my face; we're mortal enemies."

Zhang Xianzhong narrowed his eyes, seemingly scrutinizing him closely, and after a short while, he chuckled.

"She is quite attractive."

A cold glint was aimed directly at Zhang Xianzhong's brow, but he turned his head to dodge it. The White Ash Spear swept past his hair, thrusting repeatedly. But it was all dodged. Qin Liangyu kept observing her opponent's evasions, and the movements of his mechanical body were predictable.

With a variation of her attack, she thrust her spear back into Zhang Xianzhong's chest, but her opponent didn't flinch. Instead, he rushed forward and kicked her away. With a muffled thud, Qin Liangyu slammed heavily against the wall. Just as she caught her breath, she saw Zhang Xianzhong pounce on her like a hungry tiger.

He spread his arms wide, pointing them directly at his temples.

Heavenly Martial Killing Way -- The Decapitation Way.

Death loomed. She took a deep breath, grabbed her gun, and faced the tiger head-on.

Could they perish together? She asked herself this question. Her homeland had been destroyed, but the person before her had become the property of the Qin Shi Huang. If she were captured alive, he would most likely be taken back to Mount Li.

Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to reconcile. Perhaps, it's not so bad to perish together like this.

The next moment, a gust of wind came, and then a figure appeared like a ghost next to Zhang Xianzhong. The ferocious expression on his face did not change, only his eyes looked at the person next to him with a look of fear.

With a loud bang, Bai Mo smashed Zhang Xianzhong's head with a punch, sending him tumbling backflip through the air before he landed with a splash in the ditch behind the wall.

Bai Mo didn't have time to deal with this guy. He casually threw a healing Asura Way power at Qin Liangyu and rushed towards the room.
