Genetic warriors generally did not use weapons, because their bodies were their strongest weapons, so they did not need any additional weapons.
Genetic warriors seemed to be the natural opposite of Espers, and because of the existence of metal-type Espers, genetic warriors would consciously abandon metal weapons.
However, genetic warriors had armor, which had become the common choice of genetic warriors all over the world. The reason was, of course, very simple. First of all, the materials of armor were carbon fiber, Kevlar, and some kind of ceramic-like material. They were not too heavy and could be ignored by genetic warriors. Secondly, they were extremely hard. Not only were they bulletproof, they could also resist most of the attacks of Espers, such as fire and water.
The reason why Espers had not become the dominant force even though they were powerful was because of genetic warriors.
For the rich and powerful in the city who controlled most of the resources, genetic warriors, who could be mass-produced and controlled, were the core factors that allowed them to resist Espers.
Therefore, Gao Qi had to face 24 genetic warriors from the City of Angels. No matter how one looked at it, it was impossible for him to succeed.
Therefore, Gao Qi's goal was very clear. He could only hold on for a while longer and wait for the Bounty Hunter Guild's rescue.
The helicopter was very close. He did not know how the genetic warriors would appear, but Gao Qi felt that it was time to make a move.
The attack power of magic was very strong, but the preparation time was too long, especially for magic that couldn't be cast instantly. There were too many restrictions in using it. However, there was a reason why mages could become humanoid nuclear weapons and become synonymous with attack power.
Gao Qi knelt on one knee and began to draw a very complicated pattern on the sand with his right index finger.
Anna whispered, "What are you doing?"
"A magic circle that can help low-level Mages cast more powerful spells."
While speaking, his hands moved quickly. Then, Gao Qi slapped his hand on the ground. Although there was no sound, the sand with him as the center suddenly shook.
A layer of dust visible to the naked eye floated up, as if Gao Qi's slap had shaken up the sand.
Gao Qi stood up and said in a low voice, "The sun is dim in the desert, the red flag is half rolled out of the Yuan Gate …"
Accompanied by Gao Qi's soft words, a breeze blew past, gently sweeping away the dust around him. But soon, when the breeze was only a few meters away from Gao Qi, it suddenly turned into a thin tornado.
The wind was originally invisible, but when the wind blew up the sand and dust, it turned into a sand tornado that was no more than ten meters tall and as thick as the rim of a cup.
Miniature tornadoes began to appear around Gao Qi. Dozens of tornadoes appeared around him from all directions. It only took Gao Qi the time it took for him to finish reciting two lines of the poem.
The helicopter was already very close.
The helicopters lowered their altitude slightly and slowed down. Then, the two helicopters suddenly separated and flew past each other from the left and right of the high ground.
When the helicopter was about to reach Gao Qi, the first person jumped out of the wide-open side hatch.
The helicopter was about 30 meters high and the speed was at least 30 kilometers per hour. The helicopter was already slowing down and lowering its altitude, but this speed was still extremely dangerous. But for the genetic warriors, this was a problem they could completely ignore.
When the first person jumped out of the helicopter, it was the prelude to the descent of the genetic warriors. The two helicopters quickly flew past Gao Qi, and the genetic warriors jumped out of the helicopters that flew past them, landed on the ground, and stood up.
They either knelt on one knee or rolled and quickly stood up after landing. These genetic warriors of the City of Angels had all chosen the standard superhero appearance.
When the 24 genetic warriors jumped out of the flying helicopters, they were not in a hurry to attack Gao Qi immediately. Instead, they stood quietly in place.
The genetic warriors did not form a perfect circle. After landing on the ground, they formed a long and narrow circle. However, Gao Qi was indeed surrounded by them.
Being stared at by people wrapped in black armor made Niu Lidong very nervous. He could not help but whisper, "Brother Qi!"
Gao Qi finally finished his preparation. When he waved his right hand, a fireball immediately appeared in his palm. Gao Qi suddenly shouted, "Fire, Red Flame!"
The fireball burned in Gao Qi's palm, but Gao Qi did not throw it directly at the genetic warriors. Instead, he waved his hand and drew a circle in the air.
The air was ignited. A burning circle of fire appeared in the air in front of Gao Qi. Without any fuel, it floated and burned in the air, emitting scorching heat. The energy core in Gao Qi's left hand gradually decreased as it was consumed.
The three spells were not very powerful, but they were the spells that Gao Qi could use at the moment.
"Welcome to my domain. This is the world of magic."
When using magic, Gao Qi would have a strong sense of confidence.
Neither side was in a hurry to make a move. The genetic warriors seemed to be waiting for Gao Qi to finish his magic, while Gao Qi was waiting for the genetic warriors to finish gathering.
Finally, the genetic warrior who landed first moved.
With a stomp of his right foot and a raise of his hands, the first genetic warrior to land on the ground charged toward Gao Qi like a cannonball.
The distance between them was only 30 to 40 meters. This distance allowed the genetic warrior to unleash his maximum speed.
Gao Qi also moved. Gao Qi waved his hand. The flames in his palm gathered together with the tornado in front of him. Then, the fireball immediately filled the tornado, turning it into a fire tornado in an instant.
The tornado flew toward the genetic warrior.
The genetic warrior's speed and strength were not something that humans could possess. With a single step, he was already more than five meters away. With another step, he was less than ten meters away from Gao Qi.
At most, he would only need three steps. In an instant, even if he were to directly collide with Gao Qi, Gao Qi would be smashed to pieces. However, everyone who came into contact with magic for the first time would make a mistake. That was, magic's magnificence did not necessarily equate to its lethality.
When the genetic warrior's feet touched the ground for the third time, he was less than five meters away from Gao Qi. He only needed to raise his fist and sweep past Gao Qi's side to smash Gao Qi's head. However, when the genetic warrior stepped on the ground for the third time, it was as if his head had fallen into water.
The seemingly solid ground seemed to have turned into water. The genetic warrior's right foot sunk, and his body leaned forward. He fell to the ground in the standard posture of diving into water.
The fire tornado quickly expanded and enveloped the genetic warrior who had attacked first. Then, just as the genetic warrior tried to pull himself up from the ground, which had lost its bearing capacity, he immediately let out a muffled and miserable scream.
The scream lasted for a short moment before it stopped abruptly. In the fire tornado, a humanoid figure fell down.
