That figure had already become very different. Not only was his figure more muscular, but his facial outline was like a human's head and a snake's head at the same time. His skin was covered with a layer of dark green snake scales that were arranged precisely. His eyes were cold, sinister, and did not have much color left.
But Zhou Haorui and Chen Jiahwa could tell that the Naga was Lin Chengbo.
It was still wearing the Phecda uniform and the badge of the patrol leader was on its shoulder.
"Lin Chengbo!" Chen Jiahwa screamed. His voice was filled with anger and sadness … 'Why, why did you choose to do this …'
The surrounding buildings continued to let out a deafening roar as they changed shape. They were all like living creatures, or rather, the entire city itself was a living creature. Layers of steel walls covered in flesh and blood covered the sky, turning the square into a cage, a gladiator arena.
Blinding beams of light shot out from all directions, aimed at Party Hope who was in the middle.
At that moment, the black cat leaped into the air. Her claws reached out with indescribable strength to grab all the beams of light. It was the beams of light that trapped her. They weaved themselves into a web of light. However, none of the beams managed to break through her defense, none of them were able to get close to the nuclear bomb.
"Continue the sacrifice!" Wu Shiyu's voice came. "I feel like it's about to end …"
The coliseum was surrounded by higher-level mutants. They had no fear, their eyes were filled with passion and chilliness.
There was an obvious thirst in their eyes. Fresh blood, the blood of these humans.
Maniacal shouts suddenly came from all directions. After the initial shock, the city boiled over with excitement for the intruders and the battle that was taking place. Many mutants were watching from inside the city. Their cheers echoed through the city.
"Prestige City, Prestige City!" Among them, there was a language that they could understand. Was that the name of this city?
Suddenly, some higher-level mutants leaped into the air. They were so fast that the members of Party Hope could not react.
Among them, there was a group of Nagas with blonde hair and green eyes. They looked like the so-called pure-blooded Aryans of New Germany, but mutated into Nagas made their faces especially deformed, and their roars did not sound like that of a living creature at all.
The gunshots were still going on, but for the first time since the team arrived, they couldn't hit the enemy that pounced on them. The enemy's speed was faster than the speed at which they could aim and fire.
"Be careful!" Deng Ximei shouted. One of the golden-haired Nagas picked up a bone fragment from the ground and hurled it at Hubbard Scott's right arm. The bone fragment broke his arm and blood splattered everywhere.
"Ah …" Hubbard Scott groaned in pain. "Damn it … for the crows, for mankind!"
Uncle Dan quickly took out a tourniquet from the medic box and bandaged Scott's wound. They did not wish to return alive, but they wished to fight a little longer.
Without Wu Shiyu's interference, the situation changed rapidly, and the line of defense on the nuclear bomb was extremely difficult to maintain.
Lin Chengbo didn't move, he just stood there and stared coldly. He didn't avoid Zhou Haorui and Chen Jiahwa's gaze.
"So weak." He suddenly said. Even though it was noisy around them, his voice still managed to reach their ears. "And you still wish to save human civilization?"
At the same time, Zhou Haorui noticed a few zombies were about to reach them. He gritted his teeth and called out, "Crow!" The crow mark on his right wrist glowed instantly. It swallowed him whole. A pair of black wings unfurled from his back.
Chen Jiahwa could feel his crow mark growing hotter. The crow did appear to be paying attention to them, the connection was growing …
He had not summoned the crow's wings before but now he was inspired. Just like Zhou Haorui, the pain of his bones breaking surged through him. However, the pain was similar to the exhilaration that came with extreme exercise, it was the pain of power.
Suddenly, he felt himself flying. Together with Zhou Haorui, he charged forward.
The cheers around them grew louder. Xu Yanjing saw with confusion that two young men flew out from the human unit. They charged at a naga. He recognized them to be the Phecda member he encountered when he first arrived at Prestige City. They were very powerful …
When the two young men flew past, their wings whipped up a strong gust of wind. The shadows of the crows flickered on and off. Wherever they flew past, the mutants were knocked away by their wings. The low-level mutants were blasted into pieces. In the blink of an eye, they had reached Lin Chengbo.
Lin Chengbo did not move, he did not even flinch. When the two were right before him, he raised his hands to grab their wings.
Both of his hands gripped Zhou Haorui and Chen Jiahwa so that they could not continue their charge.
"You're too weak." Lin Chengbo twisted his hand forcefully, and black feathers burst out from their wings. Their bodies seemed to be on the verge of collapsing.
Zhou Haorui and Chen Jiahwa felt a strong impact. They felt like they were about to be flattened. Their wings lost their balance and they lost control of their bodies …
"Chengbo, before we left, I called your parents …" Zhou Haorui said. His voice was shaking from exertion. "They still don't know about your situation. They only know you've gone missing. They thought you're on a secret mission. They asked me to find you and I agreed … "
"You think you'll do anything to me if you bring out those two useless old things?" Lin Chengbo said coldly but his expression finally changed. "You're too naive."
His hands exerted force once more, and even his face contorted into a hideous grimace. Both of their crow wings instantly exploded. "Do you understand now … I'm the one in first place!"
Zhou Haorui and Chen Jiahwa were flung away. Chen Jiahwa almost coughed out a mouthful of blood. He could feel several of his ribs broken. Zhou Haorui was in a worse state. His left elbow was twisted into a comminuted fracture …
Yang Xinxin, who had spread his wings and was flying over, barely managed to catch the two of them, but he was also pushed back a distance in the air by the huge force.
The frenzied cheers in Dignity City became even louder. This human assault squad was just another dish in the meal, a good show that had been delivered to their doorstep.
Xu Yanjing sighed. He had no idea what he was sighing about.
Lin Chengbo was stronger than him and Yao Xuchang, but above Lin Chengbo, there were so many Mutants who were of a higher level than Lin Chengbo …
Even if the missile exploded, it would not be able to break this cage. The technology of this city was beyond human imagination.
"Champion?" Zhou Haorui laughed in the air. It was as if his broken left arm did not bring him any pain. "Champion among the mutants? In any case, it's not human anymore. Chengbo, you're not human anymore. You're inhumane … "
"Humane? How do you define that? Only those that you think are good are humane? " Lin Chengbo said. "But aren't you guys following the ideals of the Alliance of Life Will? The weak are prey to the strong. Winner takes all. When has human history not been like this? When has it ever changed? But you're right about one thing. I'm no longer human … "
He suddenly charged out. Like the other mutants around him, he charged toward the ambush team on the nuclear warhead.
"It's not that I'm inhumane. It's because I'm a supernatural. I'm on my way to godhood!"
