Chapter 33 SS-rank, I've finally found you!
The ruins of City A, the former top of a stadium.
As Xiao Fan felt the unprecedented, violent yet precise new power within his body, he couldn't help but roar to the sky!
"Ha ha ha ha--!"
The laughter was filled with long-suppressed madness and triumph.
He succeeded!
He actually won the bet!
The domineering heat of "Emperor's Flame" and the cold precision of "Mechanical Heart," these two completely opposite S-class abilities, achieved a wonderful balance and fusion within his body.
He could sense that his power level had broken through to a completely new realm.
If the previous S-class was a lake, then now it is a vast ocean!
SS-rank!
This is the true power that belongs to the overlord, the power that transcends all living beings!
"Our leader is awesome!"
"Emperor Yan is invincible!"
Below, the Avengers members, who had survived the ordeal, looked at the god-like figure in the sky and erupted in a frenzied worship that was like a tsunami.
Just now, they all thought they were going to die.
That fifth-tier "Mechanical Tyrant" was practically synonymous with invincibility.
But their leader, their "Emperor Yan".
In the most incredible and heroic way, it rushed into the monster's body and then... took control of it!
"Not enough."
Xiao Fan looked down at the mechanical tyrant's remains below, which had stopped moving and resembled a mountain, and a glint of greed flashed in his golden eyes.
"It's just wreckage, what a waste."
He stretched out his right hand and clenched it tightly downwards!
"With my flames, I will forge your body anew! Rise...!"
hum-
The SS-class "Imperial Flame Mechanical Heart" is activated at full power!
Golden flames erupted from his body like magma, instantly engulfing the massive corpse of the mechanical tyrant.
The cold metal armor began to melt, deform, and... reassemble under the scorching heat of the Emperor's Flame!
The writhing flesh and blood were burned to ashes, becoming the energy source for the new mechs!
"Click...click click..."
Under the horrified gazes of countless people, the enormous monster's corpse actually began to move!
It slowly rose from the ruins, its originally ferocious and twisted shape becoming even more powerful and destructive.
A giant war machine, hundreds of meters tall, engulfed in golden flames.
And so, it was born out of the ruins!
"roar!!!"
The Flame Mech let out a deafening roar, raised its massive arm, and unleashed a powerful punch at the still rampaging beast horde in the distance!
A thick golden beam of light swept across.
Wherever it went, hundreds of low-level beasts were instantly vaporized, leaving not even ashes behind.
The battlefield was quickly cleared.
The beast tide crisis in City A was easily quelled by the absolute power of this flaming mech.
Standing atop the mecha, Xiao Fan looked down at the crowd bowing in worship, his ambition swelling to its peak.
"ghost……"
He slowly uttered the name he hated to the core.
"Do you see that? This is my power! This is destiny!"
"You think you can defeat me with those underhanded tricks?"
"Ridiculous! Faced with absolute power, your petty cleverness is nothing but a self-humiliating joke!"
He now possesses the power to crush everything.
I can't wait to find that rat hiding in the shadows, and then crush its bones with my own hands!
But how can I find him?
China is so big, and that guy is so good at hiding.
Xiao Fan calmed down and began to think.
That "ghost" must be spying on me in some way.
It is no coincidence that my plans are always anticipated by the other party.
No matter how secretive this spying is, it will inevitably generate an energy fluctuation, no matter how subtle!
Yes! Signal!
As long as we can catch this signal, we can follow the clues and find his lair!
"Someone come here!" Xiao Fan shouted down.
"Boss! What are your orders?"
"Bring me that 'psychic signal detector' we seized from the military warehouse! The top-of-the-line one!"
"yes!"
Soon, a strangely designed instrument covered with various antennas was carried up by several subordinates.
This thing is a cutting-edge product of the Dragon Kingdom Academy of Sciences, specially designed to detect various weak psionic signals on the battlefield. They only managed to get their hands on one by chance.
Xiao Fan took a deep breath and placed his hand on the detector.
He frantically poured his massive SS-level energy into it.
The instrument's sensitivity was adjusted to an unprecedented level, even to the point of being somewhat overloaded.
He closed his eyes.
In his mind, he began to frantically recall and think about everything related to that "ghost".
The first clash in the Kunlun Mountains!
A calculated scheme by the C City grain depot!
The drones at the D City arsenal were a humiliation!
Humiliation, anger, frustration, murderous intent...
All the negative emotions burned fiercely in his mind like fuel.
He's using himself as bait!
He is making a silent provocation to that "ghost"!
"Come on! You like watching, don't you? Come watch me again!"
"You rat that only knows how to hide in the gutter! Have the guts to look at me again!"
"I'll see what kind of thing you really are!"
The indicator lights on the detector began flashing wildly.
Countless chaotic signals flickered on the screen, representing various free-floating energies in the universe.
But Xiao Fan ignored him.
He was highly focused...
He was convinced that the "ghost" was watching him!
He just made such a big commotion, there's no way that guy wouldn't pay attention!
Time passed, second by second.
Just when Xiao Fan's patience was about to run out.
"Beep".
A faint, almost imperceptible sound came from the instrument.
On the screen, amidst countless jumbled signals...
An extremely faint, extremely hidden, yet incredibly stable red light stubbornly lit up!
It was like a speck of dust in the night; if Xiao Fan hadn't turned the instrument up to its maximum power, it would have been impossible to detect!
found it!
Xiao Fan's pupils suddenly contracted!
He immediately operated the instruments to track and locate the signal source.
The source of the signal... is very far away!
The map on the instrument zoomed in rapidly and finally locked onto the heart of the Dragon Kingdom—the capital!
"It was there after all!"
Xiao Fan's breathing became heavy.
He continued to increase the energy output, attempting to analyze the signal and peer into the blurry image of its source.
On the screen, a static-like pattern flickered.
Gradually, a blurry outline began to emerge.
That looks like a... command center?
It is filled with all kinds of high-tech equipment and huge screens.
The source of the signal was a seat in the command center.
A young man.
A young man who looked to be only in his early twenties, with a calm and even handsome appearance.
He was leisurely sipping a steaming cup of tea.
It was as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with the other party.
It was as if I were just an observer.
The video ends here.
The instrument reached its limit and emitted a plume of blue smoke.
But that's enough!
Xiao Fan stared blankly at the young face that was the last image captured on the screen, first in astonishment, then in absurdity.
In the end, all emotions transformed into endless, cruel killing intent.
Is that him?
The "ghost" who had tricked him so badly, the one he wanted to tear to pieces, was actually just a kid who hadn't even grown any hair yet.
A young man leisurely sipping tea in a post-apocalyptic world?
"Oh……"
"Hehehehe..."
Xiao Fan grinned and smiled.
That smile, ferocious and twisted, combined with his numerous wounds and golden pupils, made him look like a demon crawling out of hell.
"I've finally found you..."
"You bastard!!!"
