This corridor led directly to the VIP room specially prepared for VIP customers.
Meng Chao released his spirit energy to sense the surroundings, and he immediately heard faint breathing, heartbeats, and conversations from the VIP rooms on both sides of the tunnel.
The people inside should be the civilian staff and intelligence personnel of the gangs. They were nervously gathering and analyzing the latest battle reports.
Red Brows Su Lun did not seem to notice that someone was following him.
Even if he did, he did not pay attention to it.
He hurriedly turned a corner and opened the door to a VIP room.
Meng Chao did not hear any more breathing or heartbeats ahead of him.
He sped up again.
It was only at that moment that Su Lun heard the slightly hurried footsteps. He sensed the killing intent that leaked out of the gaps in Meng Chao's heavy armor.
He was slightly stunned, and he turned around in puzzlement.
Meng Chao tore off his disguise, and his speed instantly increased by ten times. Like a hungry tiger pouncing on sheep, he knocked the two guards who were caught off guard into the wall and knocked them unconscious.
Then, he hugged Su Lun without slowing down. They rolled together and fell into the VIP room.
Meng Chao had used his spirit energy to scan the room just now. There were three heartbeats in the VIP room, and the reaction from their vitality magnetic fields was rather weak.
Even if they were superhumans, their cultivation realms should not be that high, and there was a high chance that they were not martial artists. Instead, they were staff officers who relied on their brains to make a living.
Just as he expected, when they saw a murderous heavy armor charge in, the three staff officers in the VIP room were stunned.
"Kacha kacha, kacha kacha!"
The large caliber machine gun on Meng Chao's heavy armor bit the three staff officers' foreheads and throats like hungry pythons.
Before the bullets that were thicker than thumbs shot out, Meng Chao's killing intent had already fused with his spirit energy, and like invisible icicles, it pierced their brains.
The killing intent from the apocalypse was incomparable to the deterrence of low-grade superhumans.
The three staff officers instantly felt their brains, spines, bones, and nerve endings freeze. Forget about moving, they even had a hard time breathing.
Red Brows Su Lun was sent crashing into a couch in the VIP room.
The couch instantly shattered.
He was also knocked dizzy. He grunted and coughed up blood.
His expression was as calm as ever, as if he was not surprised by the intruder's ambush.
He first waved his hand, indicating to the three staff officers not to speak or act recklessly, lest they incur a fatal disaster.
Then, he licked the blood at the corners of his lips and stared at the intruder. "Meng Chao?"
"That's right."
Meng Chao lifted the visor of his heavy firepower armor and smiled brilliantly. "Hello, Vice Gang Leader Su."
"You can't escape."
Su Lun said in a low voice, "There are people coming and going in the corridor outside. Soon, someone will discover the two unconscious guards. When that time comes, you will die."
"I didn't even think about running."
Meng Chao smiled faintly. "Let me ask you a question. If someone framed you for stealing something and meticulously set up the stolen goods, traps, and witnesses to form a tight net, how would you explain yourself?
"Hehe, no matter what method you use to explain, you've fallen into the other party's trap. The correct answer is not to be in a hurry to think about 'explanations'. First, find the person who framed you and beat him up so badly that even his parents won't be able to recognize him, much less make a sound.
"Then, you can explain yourself slowly. Then, you won't have to worry about what the person who framed you will do."
"I don't understand what you're saying," Su Lun said.
"You do," Meng Chao said.
"When the other party's plan is too meticulous and you don't have time to slowly decipher the complicated chess moves, you can act like a hooligan and overturn the entire chessboard. That's the way to get out of the situation.
"Yes, even if I kill you, others might not listen to my explanation. In fact, it will make my status as the monster's puppet even more clear.
"But I can't explain myself. If I keep you alive, who knows how much more you will slander me? Besides, you're the abnormal beast's right-hand man, so I might as well give up on myself and kill you. More or less, I'll be able to delay and interfere with the abnormal beast's scheme.
"No matter how I look at it, it'll be more worthwhile for me to kill you, right?"
"I still don't understand what you're saying, Meng Chao. Looks like there's some misunderstanding between us."
Su Lun was still calm. In fact, he sounded like he was trying to guide Meng Chao patiently. "Over the past twelve hours, a lot of things have happened in the lair, and there are also some rumors that are bad for you. Honestly, I can't believe that you, the hero of Dragon City, would betray your comrades and home.
"So, if there's really a misunderstanding and you've been framed, why don't we sit down and talk about it so that we can explain everything? Trust me, right and wrong will eventually be decided by the public. "
"Su Lun, are all the traitorous, beasts in human clothing as mentally strong as you? Are you the only one who can lie without batting an eyelid?"
Meng Chao suddenly turned all the muzzles around, and a tidal wave of killing intent gathered at the muzzles. "But no matter how glib your tongue is and how you distort the truth, today is the day you die. Even if the gods and demons descend, no one will be able to save you!"
In the face of Meng Chao's seemingly corporeal killing intent, Su Lun's eyelids finally twitched.
He seemed to have never expected that Meng Chao would use brute force to defeat him in an unreasonable manner.
"Oh, there's one person who can save you, and that's yourself."
Meng Chao suddenly changed the topic and said, "Honestly, I don't really believe that you're a helpless military adviser. Or rather, if you join the monster civilization, you have to get some benefits. Even if you're not good at fighting, as a spy sent by the monster civilization into human civilization, you should at least get some strength.
"I admit that I'm taking a gamble.
"But it's your fault for setting up such a powerful trap. Aside from that, I have no other choice.
"Now, let's see whether you can dodge the hundreds of bullets I'll fire with all my spirit energy!
"If you can dodge them, it means that you have a power no one knows about. You might have to explain the source of that power to everyone.
"If I can't hide, I can only sit on your mangled corpse and let myself be captured. Then, I can slowly explain to Lu Siya and Xiong Wei why I killed you. You won't feel itchy when there are too many lice around, and there's no need to worry when there are too many debts. In any case, I've already 'killed' a lot of people while you were framing me.
"W-Wait."
Cold sweat finally broke out on Su Lun's forehead.
But in the depths of his calm eyes was a mocking look that no one knew about. "Before you kill me, don't you think that there's something really strange?
"I knew that you snuck in, so why did I dare to bring only two bodyguards into the depths of the tunnel and give you the chance to attack me?"
Meng Chao's pupils shrank swiftly.
Whoosh!
The door to the VIP room behind him was shattered by a killing intent that was ten times stronger than his.
Queen Bee Lu Siya and Phantom Bear Xiong Wei stood quietly outside the door.
In the tunnel behind them, there were close to a hundred warriors in heavy motorized armor standing close to each other.
Outside the wide floor-to-ceiling windows of the VIP room that faced the open-air arena, a large number of armed personnel were also pushing in dozens of light and heavy anti-aircraft cannons, completely blocking every gap that could only allow a fly to escape.
Lu Siya and Xiong Wei's faces were stark pale.
Lu Siya's eyes were shrouded in great disappointment.
Xiong Wei scowled, but he could not hide his desire to eat Meng Chao alive.
She wanted to eat Meng Chao whole without the help of any cutlery or seasoning.
"I saw Xiong Ying's corpse with my own eyes."
Lu Siya's voice was like the dark wind that blew out of the deepest cave in hell. "The wound on his chest was indeed caused by you using Bloody Soul, wasn't it?"
"… Yes."
Meng Chao looked at Lu Siya, then at Xiong Wei. Even though he had no other choice, he could only say the clichéd line. "But please listen to my explanation."
"Alright."
Lu Siya smiled and activated her heavy armor. She stood on the tip of her toes and pointed at the ground. "Once I send you down to hell, I'll listen to your explanation."
"Wait —"
Meng Chao still wanted to speak, but Phantom Bear Xiong Wei's killing intent had already turned into spirit flames that looked like black clouds that could destroy cities. They filled the air and went to strike Meng Chao's head.
"Go to hell, you traitor!"
Xiong Wei's weapon was a motorized gauntlet made of a special alloy and the bones of a Hell Beast.
There were also five hollow monster fangs embedded at the ends of the gauntlet.
At first glance, they looked like two huge bear paws that could crush everything with ease.
Over the past few decades, countless monsters had died under his Giant Spirit Bear Paws.
During his sixtieth birthday, he had even used the motorized gauntlet with monster fangs embedded in it to tear a scrapped heavy armored fighting vehicle into scrap metal that was no bigger than the size of a fist in ten seconds. He became a martial arts legend in Golden Tooth Lair that was second only to Saber Jin Wanhao.
If it was necessary, Meng Chao did not mind dying together with any enemy.
But he did not want to die together with Phantom Bear Xiong Wei, who had been deceived and was livid.
It was especially so when his true enemy, Red Brows Su Lun, was right in front of him.
When he faced the huge paws that came at him, it was already too late for him to draw his saber. He could only swing the two heavy machine guns to block the attack.
Both sides' spirit energy clashed violently, and the two heavy machine guns that were crossed over each other to block the attack were instantly turned into two metal fried dough twists.
Meng Chao's heavy firepower motorized armor also let out cracking sounds of metal fatigue. Quite a number of the mechanical components and reactive armor in his body cracked and flew away.
Even the red carpet made of monster fur under his feet was torn apart by the spirit energy. A palm print that was more than one meter in diameter appeared on it.
Below the palm print was the cement ground that had been crushed by the palm wind.
Meng Chao coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He could hear all his joints groaning.
'Damn it, Phantom Bear Xiong Wei is stimulated by the pain of losing his son, and he actually drained his spirit energy without caring about anything else. His fighting strength has reached Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu's level!
