The Might of the Holy Shield Golem [2.4k]

"Blue Demon!!"
A furious roar echoed through the sky.
As the Azure-horned figure appeared before him, Silver Wolf's eyes burned with killing intent. The deep blue fiberglass gleamed brightly.
This was the bastard who had framed him.
Today was the perfect time to settle the score!
"Get lost!"
With a thunderous shout, he swung his fist, forcing Zhou Cheng back.
Without sparing anyone else a glance, he twisted his body, stomped the ground, and shot straight toward Chen Feng.
Clang!!!
Steel clashed as Chen Feng raised his elbow to block the attack.
The ground several meters around him caved in, dry leaves shattered and scattered into the air.
Scarlet eyes locked onto cold blue light.
Chen Feng suddenly smirked.
"Finally, we meet again."
His voice was low as memories surfaced—of the day he left the Tian Heng Corporation building.
If not for that golden flying shuttle's intervention, he would've fallen to this man's hands back then.
In an instant, all thoughts vanished.
His body trembled, power burst activated!
Buzz! Whoosh!
A figure was sent flying. Silver Wolf's heart jolted—his prey had suddenly become much stronger!
Tap tap tap tap!
Rapid footsteps approached as the blue figure lunged forward.
A thick fist swelled suddenly, exuding a dangerous aura.
Without hesitation, Silver Wolf exploded with power, forcefully steadying himself, feet firmly planted.
Boom!!!
A punch came crashing down—he barely managed to raise his arms to block.
The raw force behind it… nearly ten tons!
"Impossible!"
Shock filled Silver Wolf's heart as his body involuntarily retreated.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Massive trees shattered into splinters as two figures tore through the night, disappearing into the distance.
Zhou Cheng, barely regaining his footing, was stunned. His subordinates were even more speechless, eyes wide in disbelief.
"So… so strong!"
Was this the friend their young boss had made?
—Meanwhile, elsewhere in the forest—
Inside a camouflaged armored vehicle, hidden by a mesh net—
On the screen, violent energy waves erupted. The pitch-black night was illuminated by firelight, rapid gunfire resounding.
"Good! Let them tear each other apart."
"Hahaha, never thought Utopia would face such a day."
"The United Coalition has some strength after all."
Several men in the vehicle chuckled.
The scarred man, Dong Tao, narrowed his eyes as he felt the armored vehicle tremble slightly.
"Silver Wolf made a move?"
The tremor suggested either Silver-grade power was unleashed or a high-energy explosive had detonated.
At his words, a woman before the monitor quickly controlled an external mechanical drone, zooming in the footage.
A silver blur flashed into the forest.
The battle intensified.
But soon, an Azure afterimage streaked across the screen—Silver Wolf was sent flying, disappearing from view.
"Blue Demon?" Dong Tao's gaze sharpened, turning ice-cold.
"Can you zoom in further?"
"Boss, this is the max. I can't let the drone get any closer."
Dong Tao fell silent.
The tension in the vehicle grew.
"You all stay here."
Before anyone could respond, he opened the door.
Dark gold liquid metal rapidly covered his head.
In a blink, a pair of golden wings burst from his back, tearing through his clothes.
Whoosh!!
His figure flickered and vanished.
Boom!!
A muffled crash—Silver Wolf smashed through trees before finally coming to a halt.
His metal legs were deeply embedded in the ground, leaving two long trenches.
Whoosh!
A blue shadow approached, crimson light flashing—another punch incoming.
Face grim, Silver Wolf no longer underestimated his opponent.
"Activate the Armament Module!"
His mind raced as the punch descended.
Bang!!
His arms crossed in defense, and the ground caved again.
Crack!
A seven-to-eight-meter crater formed beneath them.
But this time, Silver Wolf didn't retreat.
"I never expected… you've implanted Silver-grade enhancements too."
Chen Feng's eyes turned cold.
Under the moonlight at the forest's edge, Silver Wolf's two-meter frame shimmered.
As though some power had been activated, his silver-gray armor began transforming.
All traces of gray vanished—replaced by a dazzling silver sheen.
His helmet shifted, morphing into a metallic wolf's head.
Whoosh!
His figure disappeared—his speed had surged!
As if fueled by a high-intensity energy source, he reappeared behind Chen Feng in an instant, slashing with his steel blade.
Clang!!!
A crisp impact—Chen Feng's Azure armor dented slightly.
His body staggered forward, shattering the ground beneath.
"Can you feel it? This is my true power!"
Silver Wolf's taunting voice echoed coldly.
Whoosh!
He flickered again—this time appearing to Chen Feng's left, spinning and delivering a powerful kick.
Boom!!
A white shockwave erupted—Chen Feng barely had time to raise his arms to block.
The force sent him skidding backward, carving a long trench and smashing through two trees.
His strength had increased.
Chen Feng instantly noticed the transformation—
Nearly ten tons of power.
His speed had also outclassed his base state.
Silver Wolf had truly reached the peak of Silver-grade!
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Footsteps rapidly approached.
The cold, mocking glow in Silver Wolf's metal wolf eyes intensified.
"Is that all?"
"Weren't you acting all high and mighty just now?"
"AHHH!!"
With an enraged roar, countless cold lights slashed forth.
Their arms blurred as they exchanged blows at lightning speed.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The relentless clash of metal rang out.
Silver Wolf's killing intent grew more violent.
Whoosh!
Once again, the steel blade swung down. He intended to wear down the prey before him through sheer persistence.
However, in the next second—
Snap!
The steel blade was suddenly gripped by an immense force, and the figure before him swelled in size.
Crack, crack, crack!
It was as if bones were growing, muscles expanding.
The opponent, who had previously been shorter than him by a head, suddenly shot up to two meters tall. Even more shockingly, at some unknown moment, a bronze knuckle duster had appeared, covering the entire fist.
Whoosh!
A powerful gust of wind surged forth, muscles rolling like solid stone.
Silver Wolf suddenly sensed that something was wrong. He struggled to retreat.
The steel blade in his hand abruptly shrank, trying to retract swiftly.
But in the next instant—
A bronze hue spread from Chen Feng's left arm, wrapping around like chains and locking his arm in place.
Both were of Silver-grade strength, yet he found himself unable to break free!
His pupils shrank. He widened his eyes in disbelief.
Boom!!!
A bronze fist crashed down. His head tilted, his body trembled.
Then came a relentless barrage of punches.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Muffled sounds echoed as the Silver-grade metallic bones, seemingly indestructible, were forcefully battered.
[+1 Metal Essence!]
[+1 Metal Essence!]
[+1 Metal Essence!]
One notification after another popped up. Chen Feng could feel strands of Metal Essence being drawn from his opponent's body, surging into his own through his grasping left arm.
"Ahhh!!!"
Silver Wolf roared in fury, his voice filled with both shock and rage.
"I will kill yo—"
Boom!!
Another punch silenced him, cutting off his words.
And then, Chen Feng grabbed hold of Silver Wolf's metallic wolf head.
With an immense burst of strength, his arm slammed downward—
Boom!!
The two-meter-tall Silver Wolf had his head driven into the ground, face buried in the fallen leaves.
The surrounding soil shattered, cracks spreading in all directions.
"You—"
Boom!
A sudden burst punch cut off his angry retort.
His deep blue glass-steel eyes burned with shock, rage, and hatred. Then, in the next second—
Driven to hysteria, a hidden cannon port on his shoulder-back armor suddenly shifted and locked onto Chen Feng.
An intense sense of danger erupted!
"Die!!!"
His venomous voice rang out, but Chen Feng's gaze only grew colder, his movements even more decisive.
Boom!!
Another punch landed squarely on Silver Wolf's head.
Crack!!
A sharp, unnatural sound rang out. Silver Wolf's pupils shrank violently.
Shattered?
His Silver-grade metal defense… had been broken?
Crack, crack, crack!
A series of splitting sounds echoed. A wave of pain spread through his body.
The next moment, Chen Feng's fist came crashing down once more.
There was no time to analyze why—only one desperate thought remained in Silver Wolf's mind.
"If I die… I'll take you with me!!"
Eyes filled with fury and madness, he gave his final command.
Boom!!
His shattered silver wolf head exploded, launching a missile from the cannon port on his back.
BOOM!!!
A violent explosion erupted, shaking the ground and sending shockwaves through the forest.
Flames shot skyward, smoke and dust billowed in all directions.
A short distance away, a dark-gold cyborg had just arrived. Standing atop a tree, he sighed regretfully.
"Too late…"
He had intended to personally kill the Blue Demon, but to his surprise, the latter had perished alongside Silver Wolf.
Step!
Suddenly, a strange sound came from within the smoke. His expression shifted slightly.
The swirling dust slowly cleared, revealing a charred, ten-meter-wide crater.
Silver Wolf's corpse had long been reduced to ashes in the explosion.
In contrast, the Azure figure was half-kneeling on the ground, firmly protected by a copper-colored round shield about half a meter in size.
"Do you feel death approaching?"
A deep voice asked, without turning his head.
The copper-colored shield in his hand was covered in cracks, slowly retracting into his body like liquid.
"A defensive-type armed module?"
Frowning slightly, Dong Tao snapped back to his senses.
A flash of cold light, and he immediately suppressed all doubts, charging forward to attack.
Swish!
The dark-gold wings vibrated, leaving afterimages suspended in the air.
In just one second, he had crossed dozens of meters, about to reach Chen Feng's back.
A chill swept through the air, killing intent surging.
Chen Feng stood with bent knees, still not turning his head.
"So, you also long for death."
Buzz!
As his words fell, a streak of white mixed with golden light appeared in midair.
A strong sense of crisis surged in Dong Tao's heart, and he couldn't help but look up.
Whoosh!!
A roaring wind, a colossal figure like a meteor descending from the sky!
A tremendous pressure bore down—Dong Tao's face turned pale with shock, attempting to evade.
Boom!!!
The earth trembled violently, shaking the entire Cloud Mountain.
It was as if a subterranean dragon had flipped over—thick clouds of dust soared into the sky, a hurricane-like force sweeping outward, uprooting countless trees.
"What's going on?"
Inside a disguised armored vehicle in the distance, a woman in front of a monitor suddenly noticed that her leader's communication module had abruptly disconnected.
No matter how she tried, she couldn't reconnect. She quickly controlled the Red Sparrow drone to check the situation.
Swish!
A streak of dark gold suddenly flashed across, and the monitor screen turned pitch black.
Inside the vehicle, everyone exchanged glances, momentarily stunned.
"Impossible! The Red Sparrow has an advanced stealth module!"
The woman refused to believe the result and hurriedly switched to other camouflaged drones.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Dark gold flashed again—faster than she could switch signals.
In the blink of an eye, all drones lost connection. Everyone realized something was wrong.
"Someone must have discovered us—"
Pfft!!
Suddenly, the armored vehicle was pierced by an external force, and a thin streak of dark gold flashed by at high speed.
All voices were abruptly cut off.
The woman in front of the monitor widened her eyes, feeling a sharp pain between her brows. A small trickle of blood ran down her nose and cheeks.
The last image froze, and the sound of dripping blood gradually faded.

"Young Master, a kilometer away, I found camouflaged drones."
"They weren't from Utopia. They've all been dealt with."
Deep within the forest, as the Silver Wolf was repelled, Lin Hao and his team regained control of the battlefield.
A voice came through the earpiece, but Lin Hao paid it no mind. Instead, he looked toward another direction in the forest with a doubtful expression.
"Uncle Liu, what just happened over there?"
In the distance, clouds of dust lingered in the air.
Even their current location felt the tremors from the disturbance.
"Apologies, Young Master, I was a step too late."
"There are traces of missile explosions at the scene—it could have been a high-powered armed strike."
After a brief pause, Uncle Liu continued, "Additionally, there are two bodies—preliminary judgment suggests they belonged to Silver Wolf and Winged Tiger."
Lin Hao's breath caught.
"What about Blue Demon?"
"He likely left."
"So… they were all killed by Blue Demon?"
Taking down two peak-tier, Silver-grade cyborgs equipped with armed modules—alone?
"Most likely."
The old voice spoke again, and Lin Hao fell into silence for a moment.
Bathed in moonlight, he suddenly realized—he couldn't see through his friend Fengzi anymore.
TL/N: Fengzi is a way of addressing Chen Feng. It is more casual and shows closeness.
"It seems… he must have a very powerful team backing him."
---
Buzz!!
Under the night sky, stone wings flapped as a massive white stone statue glided past the moon.
The roaring wind stirred his clothes—Chen Feng stood atop its broad shoulders, wearing a steel-bone mask, issuing a landing command with his mind.
As the speed decreased, the rock-like body beneath him slowly straightened up.
Man and statue descended into the shadows of an empty suburban area. The golden-white glow gradually faded, soon merging into Chen Feng's forehead.
Tap!
His foot landed firmly on the ground, and Chen Feng exhaled.
Using the Shield Golem was his first attempt in reality. In truth, he had sensed Dong Tao's approach the moment the missile exploded.
Taking advantage of the smoke and dust, he activated Heart of Glory, allowing the Shield Golem to descend from the sky at the last moment.
"Near Gold-grade strength…"
He sighed inwardly. He could still recall Dong Tao being crushed by the Colossus like a meteor—severely injured, unconscious, nearly dead.
Dong Tao didn't even have time to feel fear. There was no resistance at all—the process of absorbing his metallic essence was smooth.
In just over ten seconds, Dong Tao was reduced to a corpse, and Chen Feng left swiftly with the Shield Golem.
Beyond that, something else caught his attention.
After taking down Silver Wolf and Winged Tiger, a series of notifications suddenly appeared on his panel.
[You have completed a battle in defense of honor.]
[Victory!]
[Honor Points +20!]
