Chapter 524 - 34: You Seem to Have Gotten Something Wrong
The salty sea breeze swept across the chaotic Chuituo Beach.
Li Zheng shuddered, suddenly coming to and shouting, "Prepare, aim!"
Accompanied by the clatter of firearms.
The mobile task force of over a hundred people immediately spread out, with half of them aiming directly at the still-standing Hank Machado, and the other half pointing their guns at the empowerers from Ise Jingu and Mujin New Church.
Seeing the cold gun barrels, feeling the instinctive warnings.
Shenbao Chao Yi from Ise Jingu and Han Fanjun from Mujin New Church turned pale.
Because it was obvious, that wasn’t an ordinary weapon... it was the rumored Celestial Punishment Weapon.
Although they knew the Celestial Punishment Weapon that Chen Lusi had used on the Russian Orthodox Church... couldn’t possibly be widely equipped, this might be the standard version as mentioned by the intelligence dealers.
But whether it’s the special model or the standard one.
After the Russian Orthodox Church incident, with the black market buzzing for so long... just seeing the gun barrel was enough to make their hair stand on end.
Of course.
The most important reason.
Was that their strongest combat force, Igri Saba... had been thrown out.
And Chen Lusi didn’t use that legendary Celestial Punishment Weapon.
He was empty-handed!
This was completely different from the rumors and the intelligence provided by the Roman Catholic Church!
The situation suddenly reversed dramatically.
Shenbao Chao Yi and Han Fanjun couldn’t understand why things turned out this way.
Why was Chen Lusi here?
And when did Li Zheng and the others arrive? They had observed for a long time but hadn’t noticed such a group, and before landing, Hank Machado from the Roman Catholic Church hadn’t mentioned them!
So where did they come from!!?
Why was their side suddenly surrounded!!?
"Immediately hand over the sheepskin paper on you! And any form of holy relic! Then lie on the ground!"
Li Zheng didn’t care what Shenbao Chao Yi, Han Fanjun, and the others were thinking, after aiming the gun at them, he shouted again.
Hank Machado stared intently at Chen Lusi, his pupils trembling madly.
He hardly paid attention to Li Zheng.
At this moment.
Standing behind Chen Lusi was not only Tang Language but also a shadow figure stood tall.
Chen Lusi directly held the light ball created by Igri Saba’s authority, along with the shadow, watching the direction where the latter disappeared.
Then.
He seemed to finally notice Hank Machado, who had been staring at him all the time, and suddenly moved his gaze towards him.
The moment Chen Lusi looked over.
The shadow behind him also tilted its head, looking towards Hank Machado.
At that instant.
Hank Machado only felt a chill rushing from his feet to his skull!
And he knew very well what this meant... it meant that the person in front of him could kill him on the spot!
Something was off!
Very wrong!
The intelligence was flawed.
This person’s strength far exceeded expectations!
At the same time.
Tang Language finally recovered from her daze.
Honestly speaking.
She was completely out of it just now... her emotions were like riding a roller coaster.
Until she saw daylight again.
She couldn’t quite believe it, and it wasn’t until Li Zheng shouted again that she snapped back, looked at Li Zheng and others, then at Chen Lusi’s back, and couldn’t help but stretching out her pale fingers, carefully poking at the shadow standing behind Chen Lusi.
... No tactile sensation came through.
"Hey!!! Officer Hank Machado! What’s going on! This isn’t what we agreed on!"
Han Fanjun looked at the fierce Chen Lusi, Li Zheng, and others, finding that Hank Machado was silent, finally couldn’t hold back, took a step forward, and shouted anxiously.
But what answered him was not Hank Machado’s words.
It was the clear sound of a trigger being pulled.
The moment he stepped forward.
Click—
The Security Army moved their gun barrels, directly pulling the trigger.
The runes on the compression device inside the gun lit up, the top of the gun spurted out spirit sharply, then quickly contracted, concentrated, collapsed.
Finally.
The blue spirit coalesced into a bullet, rotating inside the barrel, quickly shot out.
The energy waves exploded at the muzzle.
A bullet exited the chamber, flying out at an astonishing speed, instantly reaching Han Fanjun.
Han Fanjun’s pupils suddenly dilated.
Then.
Boom—
A huge explosion resounded across the beach.
The shockwave swept through, Han Fanjun was engulfed instantly by the blast, and the sand was lifted into the air by the explosion’s impact.
As the ground shuddered.
The spreading shockwave swept away other empowerers from Mujin New Church standing near Han Fanjun.
The fierce wind howled past, making the clothes of others present flap loudly.
Then.
The second sound.
The third sound.
The sand continued to be lifted.
The beach, originally somewhat tranquil, instantly plunged into chaos.
It persisted for a good while.
The chaos slowly began to settle.
As the sand fell and the dust cleared, Han Fanjun’s figure reappeared.
He lay on the ground in distress, both arms lost, the broken stumps bloodied and mangled, his life state unknown.
At the last moment, he seemed to have tried to resist the simultaneous attack of the Celestial Punishment Weapon.
But he underestimated the power of the Celestial Punishment Weapon.
Even Shenbao Chao Yi, who initially wanted to question, steadied himself, saw this scene, and his pupils sharply contracted, directly swallowing all words back down, not daring to move.
Just filled with... fear.
At the same time.
On the other side.
Members of the Celestial Strategy Mansion local to Lu City looked at Chen Lusi, then at Li Zheng and the others, also couldn’t help but gulp.
Holy shit...
He had heard of Li Zheng’s talks of forming a mobile task force.
