Chapter 23 There is only one truth!

Elite Steel Mutant, just an Elite Monster, on the same Rank as ordinary mechanical monsters.

As for the Level, between 30 and 35.

They may look intimidating, but their Firepower and Defense are only about 1400 to 1500.

Xu Gu's Firepower is 6280, Defense 5520, Power 4400; the attacks from these Steel Mutants couldn't even break his defense.

Naturally, they are all cannon fodder, no matter the numbers.

"I thought you would send some real fighters, what a waste of my expression."

Xu Gu shook his head slightly, aware that the Ascension Sect would not send very strong forces, since he did not showcase his full abilities intentionally, but he did not expect that those who came would be so weak!

"Seeking death!"

The Elite Steel Mutants surrounding Xu Gu, fueled with rage upon hearing his words, eyes crimson, swords in hands, all charged towards Xu Gu to slay him.

These followers of the Ascension Sect, tainted by the power of the Mechanical Abyss, though they haven't lost their ability to think and their intellect, have also hardly retained any rationality.

Blades shimmered like shadows, shattering countless air particles, whipped up massive air waves, the surrounding ground cracked, and flora shattered.

In the air, the cargo helicopter had mounted several cannons and machine guns, bombarding Xu Gu.

Xu Gu's eyes flickered slightly, his Blue Fury Sky Slash in hand burst forth with blue-white electric arcs, containing unimaginable tremendous power.

With a slash towards those Steel Mutants.

A thunderous sound.

Only a vast trail of blue-white light remained on the field.

Wherever it passed, all things perished!

Irresistible!

Boom boom boom!

In an instant, all the Steel Mutants' heads flew high, like blood, Energy Liquid sprayed out like columns.

For a moment, heads tumbled everywhere, bodies strewn across the field, the scene was grim and terrifying.

[You have killed…]

[You have killed…]

…

The notification sounds rang out, killing Steel Mutants were akin to killing Steel Beasts, as killing them also yielded Crystal Energy, which could be converted into points and Experience.

"As expected, it yields Crystal Energy, but killing the Steel Mutants yields only a little."

Xu Gu didn't care much about this; for him, these points and Experience were too insignificant to mention.

"How could this be possible!"

Wang Lanlan was deeply shocked, her eyes filled with astonishment, she swallowed her throat's lubricant, flabbergasted, unable to believe.

The group of nightmare-like Elite Steel Mutants were so effortlessly slain by Xu Gu.

Just one slash!

From beginning to end, it only took a single slash.

Keep in mind, even she, when facing one of those Elite Steel Mutants, would have a furrowed brow, under immense pressure, and a slight mistake could lead to defeat.

Not to mention a whole group!

And Xu Gu was just a newcomer!

"Is this even possible?" Wang Lanlan felt dizzy and off-balance, as if she were dreaming, unable to accept the scene before her.

Not just her, the opposing Level 35 Elite Steel Mutant, expressed even more fear and complexity on its face.

"Monster! Run!"

No further thought needed, that Elite Steel Mutant instantly took off, not looking back, its core like a heart, buzzing with high-load operation, its whole body tensed, terror reaching its peak.

"Run?"

Xu Gu's eyes slightly narrowed, and he did not chase, two rows of cannons appeared on his shoulder.

They were Grade A parts, the Hell Divine Fire Cannon.

The cannon's muzzle charged, bursting forth with terrifying Divine Light and intense heat, unimaginable energy gathered and compressed, as if distorting the space itself.

Boom boom boom!

A series of over ten shots.

Giant fireballs smashed down all around, an impressive display, energy crackling fiercely, and it was like ten suns rising into the sky, illuminating the Dark Night, dazzling to behold.

The terrifying high temperature seemed to melt the heavens and the earth together!

"No! How can this possibly be, such an attack, how could it come from a rookie…"

The Elite Steel Mutant, under such assault, was terrified to immobility, its body rigid, standing static on the spot, watching giant fireballs swallowing purple flames plummet onto itself.

Only horror filled its eyes.

And an idea,

Is this the Sun?

Boom!

This Elite Steel Mutant, instantaneously melted, turning into a pool of molten steel.

Not just it, the group of Steel Mutants that were entangling with the Blue-White squad and pushed Blue-White squad to a dead end were also hit by the fireball, flying backwards and quickly liquefying into molten steel.

The might was terrifying to the extreme.

Leaving the members of the Blue-White squad, stunned on the spot, with stiff faces, trembling bodies, silently swallowing their saliva, they turned their heads to look at Xu Gu, that red and blue behemoth heavy truck!

Bang bang bang!

Some team members, even with weakened legs, directly fell on the spot and sat down.

"Am I dreaming, right?"

"At the moment of our impending doom, instead of being protected by us, the newbie Xu Gu actually saved us?"

"And, it was an instant kill! All Steel Mutants were instantly killed!"

Everyone was incredibly stunned, murmuring to themselves.

Everyone was surprised, Xu Gu was also surprised.

Isn't it too much? I only used 20% of my strength, and you are shocked to this extent?

Aren't they said to be the most elite Mercenary Group in Xia City?

He didn't want to frighten them too much, hence, he did not utilize too much strength; in fact, there was no need for it. After all, 20% was enough for a one-hit kill, 30% was the same. He didn't realize that these people would still be almost scared silly.

Xu Gu looked unperturbed, incredibly calm, looking at the cute petite Motorcycle Woman Wang Lanlan, and smiled:

"I indeed don't have a dozen 30th-level bodyguards, but shouldn't my strength be equivalent to those of a dozen 30th-level bodyguards?"

Much more than that! Even saying it's equivalent to a dozen 40th-level bodyguards wouldn't be an exaggeration!

Wang Lanlan was quite uncomposed, swallowing her saliva, disregarding her cool image, finally recovering from the shock, her eyes filled with fervor looking at Xu Gu.

A newcomer who just awakened a day ago, to be so powerful!

Is this a kind of perversion?

Even SS-level isn't like this, right?

If I could cling to this powerful being, wouldn't I just soar high!

"It seems that he must have gotten quite a few benefits deep in the wilderness."

Meanwhile, Wang Lanlan was also feeling envious.

She heard rumors, when the Beast Tide was coming and Xia City was heading towards the apocalypse, there was a supreme powerhouse, over tens of meters high like a mountainous behemoth heavy truck, with a blade in hand sweeping away all Mechanical Monsters, even entering Mechanical Abyss and slaying Lords.

And Xu Gu also went deep into the wilderness, also using a heavy truck, even wielding a great blade, his strength so freakishly strong.

Thus, there could only be one truth!

That is, that mysterious powerhouse, seeing Xu Gu similarly as a heavy truck and wielding a great blade, felt kinship, and met in the deep wilderness.

And thus, took Xu Gu to level up!

Steamrolling all Mechanical Monsters and Mechanical Abyss, gaining massive points and Experience, raising levels, and purchasing parts to enhance his strength, was unsurprising.

"Yes! There's only this possibility!"

Wang Lanlan's eyes sparkled, her gaze towards Xu Gu growing even hotter.

Not only was he powerful, his talent on par with SS level, but he also befriended a mysterious and supreme powerhouse! Without need for thinking, one could see, Xu Gu's future was bright!

Xu Gu, seeing Wang Lanlan's gaze, was not surprised; most female and some influential male Motorcycle People, in front of him, were like this.

Hardly able to resist fawning over him.

He had gotten used to it.

But he did not know her wild guesses, if he knew, he would definitely be speechless for a long time.

Leveling up by oneself, how could that be!

However, the members of the Blue-White squad, still not having calmed their emotions, moved closer to Xu Gu.

Crack crack!

Around them, the intense crackling noises started.

Only to see, the bodies of Steel Mutants that Xu Gu had slain, parts scattered all around, actually all began to float, flickering with pale blue cold light.

The next moment,

Boom boom boom!

All the bodies and parts, as if drawn by a huge force, fell towards the center, bursting into terrifying cold light, as if some extremely horrifying monster was about to descend.

"This is..." Wang Lanlan's eyes suddenly flashed with terror, as if thinking of something dreadful.

"No wonder the Crystal Energy was so scarce."

Xu Gu's expression remained calm, not too surprised, indifferently watching that pile of scrap iron undergoing shocking transformations.
