Was the competition of Liberty City really as simple as it appeared to be, and was it just a competition between 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie and 'Leader of Liberty City' Xiahou Wuxin?
If the Immortal Cultivators were really testing a powerful weapon or capturing the experts among the sinners for studies in 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky', how would they interfere with the battle?
Was there any 'high-molecular layer-by-layer scanning' magical equipment in Liberty City?
Even if there was, and if he could get it successfully, what should he do next?
Was it possible for him to change the wretched world under the siege of the Immortal Cultivators?
Also, 'Starlight', the mysterious resistance organization of the Cultivators, and the 'Cultivators who had been lost for a thousand years', which were even more unpredictable, had already revealed their traces. But where were they exactly?
Li Yao pondered.
"Grandpa Yao —"
Han Te suddenly exclaimed, "Look to our southeast. Somebody seems to be there!"
Li Yao was slightly dazed. He adjusted the distance, direction, and resolution of the crystal cameras. Dozens of kilometers to the southeast, he saw rolling smoke at first. Then, he saw a woman who was fleeing in a hurry on all fours.
In the middle of the smoke were more than ten caterpillar tractors and shuttles. They were all embedded with iron needles and horns, making them look like iron hedgehogs. They were obviously not to be messed with.
All the caterpillar tractors and shuttles protruded a couple of crystal cannons and barraged forward crazily.
The woman who was on all fours, on the other hand, looked particularly slim with her hair exploding outward in a mess. She was also wearing some sort of ejector magical equipment on her hands and feet, which would spurt out tremendous air currents the moment they touched the ground. She seemed to be supported by invisible springs as she dashed among the blasts and the pieces of the explosions, fleeing in panic.
She seemed to have practiced special lightness arts before. Together with the four ejector magical equipment, her speed was no slower than that of the shuttles at all.
It was a pity that because of the interference of the enemy's bombardment, she was blown away every now and then, spinning in midair like a kite whose string had been cut. It was truly a miserable sight.
The enemy was not even in a hurry to kill her or catch up with her. Instead, they were playing a game of cat and mouse, as if they were killing time with the poor woman.
The woman fell to the ground again and again. Blood flowed like streams, and her body was covered in wounds. However, she got up again and again and struggled to escape.
Li Yao could see the ugly smiles on the faces of the ferocious bandits in those steel hedgehogs.
"Grandpa Yao —"
Han Te and Coloured Glaze both saw the woman's miserable state, and their voices revealed a hint of pleading.
Although 'meddling' was a synonym for 'asking to be killed' in the Land of Sins, however …
They were different from the regular sinners in the Land of Sins.
Besides, there was still Grandpa Yao!
"Go!"
Li Yao activated the power rune arrays of the heavy shuttle and accelerated to the highest speed in the cheers of the two little fellows!
Although his main body, the tracked spiritual puppet, boasted anti-gravity abilities, too, it did not conform to the principles of aerodynamics after all. Its speed could not be too high. Also, the load was limited. It was impossible for the two little fellows to sit on his shoulders all the time.
Therefore, they were now on a heavy shuttle that had been modified by Li Yao. It had been designed for the transportation of goods at the beginning, and there was an enormous compartment in the back. However, after Li Yao's modification, it boasted a speed as high as that of a racing shuttle.
Under Li Yao's skillful driving, the twenty to thirty kilometers were covered in the blink of an eye. They cut into the enemy's team from the left rear. They could clearly see the symbol of a black panther with wings that was sprayed between the iron needles and the iron thorns.
It seemed to be a gang named 'Flying Leopard Hall'. It was quite famous on the Bloody Plateau, too. It was best known for its unstoppable looting.
Perhaps the tough bandits of the Flying Leopard Hall were cautious in nature, or perhaps they were used to being domineering, but when they saw an unknown shuttle approaching, they immediately turned their cannons around and smashed the storm of destruction at Li Yao overwhelmingly.
"Grandpa Yao, watch out!"
Han Te and the Coloured Glaze exclaimed at the same time.
Li Yao's soul yawned lazily. The seemingly clumsy heavy shuttle turned into an agile streak of brilliance and dodged the storm of bullets in the most delicate and dangerous way.
The exhaust flames were spurted to the tank of the Flying Leopard Hall, which accelerated again and caught up with the fleeing woman. A mechanical arm extended out from the right side of 'Fiend Star' and picked her up, throwing her into the compartment. Then, after a beautiful drift, the shuttle almost turned 180 degrees, dodging a few crystal cannonballs that had locked onto its original position, before it rushed in the opposite direction of the Flying Leopard Hall's team.
The whole movement was as smooth and natural as water. The trajectory of the shuttle was as sharp and aggressive as a folding saber!
The tough bandits of the Flying Leopard Hall did not see it coming that a mysterious, highly-skilled driver would appear out of nowhere. For a moment, they were thrown into chaos. Many shuttles intended to turn 180 degrees neatly like Li Yao did, but they ignored the gap in skills between the two parties and directly destroyed the balance system of the shuttles. The shuttles rolled more than ten times in midair before they smashed into the ground heavily. A few tough bandits crawled out of the shuttles, whose faces were flushed red. Watching Li Yao's back that was gradually disappearing, they screamed in fury.
Han Te and the Coloured Glaze applauded loudly.
The woman who had been thrown to the back seat by Li Yao, on the other hand, was still in shock. She was dumbfounded, as if she had seen a ghost, which was even weirder than when she was chased by the tough bandits of the Flying Leopard Hall.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
In fact, she was not ugly. She was rather young, but she could not have been more unkempt. Her body was covered in mud and stains, and it was impossible to tell the original color of her skin. Her hair was as messy as a cluster of straws, which made her head unbelievably large. Right now, her spine was arched, making her look like an alarmed cat that would extend its claws that were not sharp at any moment and scream in fear.
"Don't be scared. We're here to save you!"
Han Te and the Coloured Glaze said at the same time.
The woman's face was even weirder. "Save me? Why do you want to save me? Do you hate the Flying Leopard Hall, or do you hate me? "
Han Te and the Coloured Glaze were dazed for a moment. They shook their heads and said, "No. But weren't you chased by the people of the Flying Leopard Hall? If you were caught, they would certainly kill you or sell you as a slave. Shouldn't we save you?"
As if it were the first time that the woman had heard such a matter-of-fact and absurd statement, and as if her whole plan had been disrupted by the unexpected arrival of Li Yao and his companions, she was dazed for a long time before she shouted anxiously and angrily, "What are you talking about? Of course I am a three-year-old child. How can there be such a good thing in the Land of Sins? Are you all idiots?"
Han Te and the Coloured Glaze looked at each other and smiled at the same time. "Maybe!"
The woman once again showed an expression of "I'm f * cking dreaming". She shook the car door hard and gritted her teeth. "Alright, thank you for saving my life. Now, put me down and leave me alone!"
She tried to jump out of the car without caring about anything else, but she was hugged by Li Yao's mechanical arm. She knocked on Li Yao's steel shell with her elbow, but other than making herself grimace in pain, it did not do anything at all.
"The people of the Flying Leopard Hall are still behind us."
Han Te reminded her kindly.
"Don't worry. We really mean no harm. If you really don't want to say anything, we will put you down when we reach a safe place and go our separate ways."
Coloured Glaze said considerately.
The cat-like woman struggled hard in Li Yao's iron arm. Looking at the 'innocent' faces of the two little fellows, she was truly amused. Calming herself down for a long time, she said, "Listen, no matter where you idiots come from and how much water is in your head that you decided to help me on the Bloody Plateau, all in all, I will take care of my own business. You saved me, and I thank your ancestors for that. Now, put me down, or you will regret it. You two idiots … will die!"
"The cars of the Flying Leopard Hall can't catch up with us."
Han Te declared confidently.
"Even if they do, we won't be scared."
Coloured Glaze waved her tiny fists and smiled at the cat-like woman, baring her sharp canine teeth. "Don't be scared. Whatever happens, we will protect you."
The woman had gathered her fury and was about to burst out, but Coloured Glaze's words blocked her fury.
Looking at Coloured Glaze's eyes that were as clear as water, the cat-like woman blushed, not knowing how to respond to the two little fellows who did not play by the rules.
"Idiots."
She mumbled to herself, "Who's talking about the Flying Leopard Hall?"
Coloured Glaze blinked. "Who are you exactly? Why are the people of the Flying Leopard Hall chasing after you?"
While the woman was at a loss for words, feeble explosions suddenly echoed behind them.
It did not sound like the explosions of cannons or crystal bombs, but more like a few meteorites.
Even Li Yao sensed the ripples spreading out when the meteorites rubbed against the air at a high speed.
Something was falling from the sky, but it did not seem to be the assets that the Heavenly Rails dropped. The relief assets that the Heavenly Rails dropped were all buffered by parachutes. They were rather slow, and the colors of the parachutes were often very vivid, which could be seen from a long distance away. Therefore, bloody fights were often inevitable.
Not only were the 'meteorites' falling at a high speed, they had also activated certain stealth techniques. As a result, even Li Yao failed to detect them with his senses in the Divinity Transformation Stage before they hit the ground.
Therefore, they did not want to be discovered on purpose.
Of course, the meteorites falling from the sky, even if they were equipped with a very advanced stealth and buffering system, would still leave traces when they hit the ground at a high speed.
When the 'invisible meteorites' hit the ground, they would inevitably raise explosions and raise walls almost ten meters tall.
Their landing point was not far away from the cars of the Flying Leopard Hall. The tough bandits of the Flying Leopard Hall must've been curious, too. Half of the tanks were sent to the landing point of the 'invisible meteorites'.
