The night was cold.
A rough humanoid armor walked on the deserted street. The moonlight shone on the cold steel, illuminating the T-3 white letters.
His steps were slow as he looked around as if he was taking a stroll.
The house was in ruins.
The closer he got to the "castle," the more miserable the scene became. Bullet holes were everywhere on the walls. Based on the density of the bullet holes, they were probably from machine guns. Traces of explosions could be seen at the corners of the streets. Based on the scale of the explosions, it should be the product of grenades.
In the ruins, Jiang Chen saw a pair of eyes.
Like a frightened little animal, the eye fled in panic the moment he turned his face slightly.
Jiang Chen's throat moved as he slowly looked away.
"You can leave the 'cleaning' to me." Ayesha's voice came into his ear.
"No … I think it's better if I do it myself."
Although he couldn't see Ayesha's face, Jiang Chen could imagine her gentle gaze.
The bullets had almost pierced through the wooden wall of the house not far away. A hand appeared in his sight. It trembled as it reached out the window and closed the wooden window.
Jiang Chen could feel that the fear was directed at him.
"Are you okay?" Ayesha asked softly.
"Of course. Whether it's corpses or things scarier than corpses, I've seen a lot, "Jiang Chen said nonchalantly as he moved his eyes away from the ruined house.
Ayesha knew that he was talking about that world.
"But I don't think you're okay."
"Why do you say that?" Jiang Chen sighed.
As he got closer to Johnny's mansion, he pulled out the tactical rifle.
Although it felt like overkill, he still wanted to personally say goodbye to Johnny. As for the reason … he couldn't explain it.
"Intuition." There was a hint of gentleness in that cold voice.
Intuition?
Jiang Chen smiled and didn't comment on Ayesha's explanation.
Click —
The clear sound of a bullet being loaded.
"Ayesha."
"Mhmm."
"Do you think … I'm wrong?"
This place was supposed to be peaceful. All the flames of war had started because of him. If it wasn't for the impromptu idea that day, if he didn't order Robert to send Johnny over, and then support the opposition to start a civil war, the people living here may not have experienced war for the rest of their lives.
This was a problem that he had only recently begun to realize. It might only take half a second to switch dimensions, but it took a long time to switch minds. Sometimes, he couldn't help but wonder if he had unknowingly applied the logic of the apocalypse in the modern world.
This is undoubtedly in the interest of the company, but is it right?
"In my heart, you will always be right."
Jiang Chen was stunned.
A moment later, hearty laughter echoed within the steel armor.
"Thank you."
Ending the call, I activated Berserk and a series of red dots appeared in my field of vision.
All the worries and shackles of human nature were thrown to the back of his head as he felt his mind was unprecedentedly clear.
It was the clarity of slaughter.
Ding!
The armor vibrated slightly. A bullet hit the sturdy plastic steel, but it didn't even leave a mark. Jiang Chen looked up with a menacing smile. It was a black guy aiming at him with an automatic rifle. He was probably a mercenary hired by Johnny.
The black guy saw that his shot was ineffective and was shocked. He didn't stop moving as he loaded the grenade.
Looking at the cold steel armor, he instinctively felt fear.
The turbine engine behind him spewed out flames as Jiang Chen easily moved to the side to increase the distance between him and the grenade.
The muzzle of the machine gun on the roof pointed at him. Jiang Chen raised his rifle and fired a burst of bullets, turning the machine gun into a sieve along with the machine gun. Then, Jiang Chen turned the muzzle and aimed at the red dot hidden behind the wall. He pressed the trigger.
The bullet tore through the fragile wall and shredded the heart hiding behind it.
He kicked open the iron gate of the mansion and bathed in the hail of bullets. Jiang Chen strode forward like a meteor while firing back with his rifle.
The mercenaries hired by Johnny fell one after another. Seeing that they couldn't hurt the "monster" at all, the remaining people finally began to feel fear.
Just then, an RPG with a tail of flame flew towards Jiang Chen.
Without dodging, Jiang Chen raised his left hand and slapped it.
With a loud bang, the flame exploded.
The shrapnel scraped against the steel armor and created a screeching sound, but it didn't damage the armor at all.
"High explosive bullet? Try another armor-piercing bullet, you trash. "Jiang Chen sneered as he raised his rifle and shot the guy with the launcher to the ground.
The mercenaries finally felt fear.
Reality proved that when faced with an unbeatable enemy, the so-called professional ethics were just bullsh * t. The remaining red dots began to retreat. They abandoned their employer and began to flee in three different directions.
Jiang Chen didn't bother with the deserters who lost their will to fight as he smashed open the wooden door of the mansion with the butt of his rifle and walked into the house.
The grenade in front of the door flew into the air.
Jiang Chen, who was in berserk mode, laughed disdainfully. He didn't even bother to hide as he passed through the smoke of the explosion and headed to the basement.
There were five red dots there. Instinct told him that Johnny was there.
Berserk mode deactivated.
He took out the laser knife to melt the door lock and kicked open the metal door.
The smell of alcohol wafted in his face. Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows as he activated the air filtration system of the power armor and walked down the stairs with the rifle.
The lights were on.
In the dark red room, there were cages, steel pipes, wooden horses … and all kinds of perverted torture devices. Jiang Chen didn't look at the four naked bodies as he looked directly at the man sitting on the wooden chair.
"Red wine … You sure know how to enjoy yourself."
Johnny raised his pale eyelids and looked at Jiang Chen as his throat moved.
"You, are you here to kill me?"
"That's right," Jiang Chen said softly.
"Where are the mercenaries up there?" His voice contained a hint of unwillingness to face reality.
"Dead, or escaped."
Johnny's eyes widened as he grabbed the pistol on the table and aimed at Jiang Chen.
His hand was shaking, especially when he saw that Jiang Chen didn't react to his reaction, his shaking became even more obvious.
"I'm begging you, give me a chance …"
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."
Johnny first paused before he started to laugh maniacally.
"Hahaha, if I really listened to Robert and gave up everything to get on the boat, would you let me get to Australia alive? Pooh! "Johnny waved the pistol in his hand and pointed at Jiang Chen in the metal armor.
It was like a baby waving a toothpick at an adult.
"No … If I answer like this, it'll make you feel better when you die," Jiang Chen said softly.
A hint of begging appeared on Johnny's face, but it quickly turned into madness.
"Let's die together!"
Johnny roared as he pressed the trigger in his hand.
It was not a gun, just a pistol shaped detonator used to control the fifteen kilograms of explosives buried in the basement.
Electric sparks flashed, but nothing happened.
The expression on his face gradually turned into despair.
"Why, why?"
"Even if I explain to you what EMP is, you won't understand in a short amount of time … Whatever, let's go."
Jiang Chen aimed the gun at his head and silently pressed the trigger.
