A pause of 0.2 seconds. If a human was not able to focus, they would not be able to notice it at all. Even if they did notice this pause, they would not be able to react, unless this person's reflexes and the ability of the body to achieve this speed … were different from the rest. Coincidentally, Xu Le was such a person who was different from the rest. In that instant, the muscle fibers in his body twisted and stretched, exploding with terrifying strength. This strength was converted into speed, and like a grey shadow, he shot up slightly from the ground, grabbed Tai Zhiyuan by the back of his neck, and threw him into the car …
The unique muffled sound of Darin's gun barrel rang out once more, and the dense stream of bullets slammed heavily into the already tattered body of the black car, sending it flying off the ground once more.
Xu Le's good luck came to an end at this moment.
Tai Zhiyuan had already been thrown into the backseat of the car, but because the car had suddenly shot up, his body slammed heavily into the bottom of the heavy back door of the car, unable to enter!
With a muffled thud, Xu Le painfully collided with metal and fell to the ground.
At the same time his body hit the ground, the four wheels of the black car that had been sent flying by the mecha's firepower also landed heavily on the ground at almost the same time.
In the instant before the black car landed on the ground, its tires had already begun to spin rapidly while still in the air. Butler Jin, who had been sitting in the front row without knowing whether he was alive or dead, reacted at some point. In that split second, he made preparations to escape.
Screech, screech. The tires rubbed against the ground, producing a sharp sound. Smoke rose, and there were even sparks. With a screech, the moment the black car landed, it gripped the ground in a decisive manner and shot forward. In just an instant, it had become a plume of dust that rushed towards the underground parking lot. Its speed was truly astounding.
Several streaks of blood had just appeared on Xu Le's face, but before they could flow down, he stared dumbfoundedly as the black car carrying Tai Zhiyuan sped away, leaving him in the parking lot filled with flesh and blood and the smell of gunfire.
And at this time, without the black car as a cover, he stood next to the enormous and powerful black military M52 mecha, looking very lonely and small.
…
…
After Xu Le threw Tai Zhiyuan into the car, he realized that when he was still outside the car, he didn't yell at Butler Jin, "Start the car!" like those righteous protagonists in movies. Don't mind me!
Because he didn't have time to shout, and he didn't want to be left behind. Although he knew full well that the black car had to seize the opportunity to escape, he was certain that this was not Tai Zhiyuan's intention. Instead, it was the most logical choice that Butler Jin had made. If he had been able to react in time, perhaps he would have subconsciously asked Tai Zhiyuan to escape first and not bother about him … However, he still felt extremely frustrated.
Everyone had either died or escaped, leaving him alone to face that black M52 mech? Xu Le half-crouched on the blood-soaked concrete floor. His pupils constricted nervously as he stared at the black mech that was turning around not too far away from him.
That black metallic military mecha didn't pay any attention to the unarmed young man beside it. Its target was the black car that was currently speeding away from the underground parking lot, because it knew very well that the heir of the Tai family was in that car. And in its opinion, no matter how well-trained a human was, he would not be able to pose any threat to its powerful mecha, not to mention that the human did not have any heavy weapons in his hands.
And so, the black M52 mecha turned around silently. Amidst a series of static noises, the lower half of the mecha began to enter full movement mode. Meanwhile, on the right mechanical arm of the mecha, a metal barrel-like component had already protruded, aiming at the black car that was already 50 metres away and was about to reach the underground parking lot.
Xu Le's entire body was in intense pain. He stared in disbelief at the movements of the black mecha in front of him. In an instant, he recognised the component protruding from the mecha's right mechanical arm … it was the main cannon!
…
…
Tai Zhiyuan awkwardly squeezed into the car, but was immediately jolted up by the violent vibrations. Then, he saw that Butler Jin, who had been in the driver's seat, had raised his head at some point. He was looking ahead silently, and the battle scene around the car window was instantly cast behind him.
His face was pale, and he immediately noticed that Xu Le was not in the car. He abruptly turned his head, and through the cracked rear window that was still intact, he looked back. Then, his expression became abnormally complex, because he saw a scene that he could not accept.
Far away in the underground parking lot, that huge black mecha was turning around amidst the sound of static. Meanwhile, his friend Xu Le was half-kneeling in a pool of blood beside the mecha's mechanical leg. He looked like an ant that could be trampled to death at any moment.
Meanwhile, behind the completely collapsed concrete wall, several fully armed killers were forcing their way through the area the mecha had opened up.
A pained expression appeared on Xi Zhiyuan's handsome face, and his usually calm eyes were filled with boundless anger and grief. He knew that no matter whether it was a random move from that military mecha or those mecha squad soldiers hiding behind the concrete wall, they could easily kill Xu Le.
His thin lips were tightly pressed together. His hands gripped the backseat of the car so hard that his fingertips dug deep into it, but he did not say a word. Xu Le had saved his life once again, but he could only watch as his benefactor died. This was because he knew that even if he stopped the car and drove back now, he would not be able to save the other's life. Moreover, at this critical juncture, Butler Jin would definitely not listen to his orders.
Tai Zhiyuan's emotions were very complicated.
"Mecha's main cannon firing. Defence probability, 40%." The car's central control computer began to beep urgently and began to issue a stern warning. The seatbelts automatically popped out and strapped the bodies of the people in the car tightly to their seats.
Like Xu Le, Tai Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Through the spiderweb-like glass, he looked at the black mecha's raised right mechanical arm in the distance. He looked at the incomparably tiny Xu Le beside the black mecha, as though he had not heard the warning at all.
…
…
Xu Le half-knelt in the pool of blood. He looked at the huge mecha not far in front of him and slowly but terrifyingly used its right mechanical arm to aim at the fleeing black car in the distance. Since he was young, he had been constantly learning about mecha mechanics. After a year of absorbing information at Ewha University, he could easily determine that this M52's main cannon, which had the highest output power, would hit the fleeing black car in 0.3 seconds.
The black car had already demonstrated its powerful defensive capabilities in the previous attack. However, Xu Le did not think that the black car would be able to survive the attack of this mecha's main cannon. Even if it was the Empire's armored mecha, under the close range attack of an M52's main cannon, it would only end up with a hole in the middle.
The black M52 mecha let out a sizzling sound. The powerful firepower prepared for the attack caused this huge and heavy mecha's body to begin to tremble slightly.
Kneeling beside the mecha, Xu Le's face was pale, and his body began to tremble violently.
His eyes stared coldly at the M52 mecha in front of him, at the alloy hydraulic pipe that was exposed to him in attack mode.
…
…
Although that black car had left him almost heartlessly, other than anger, Xu Le did not have time to develop too many negative emotions. Just as he had always emphasized to Shi Qinghai, he was a person who only knew how to use his hands and not his mouth. He was a very direct person.
The reason Xu Le had fallen into such a hopeless situation was because he wanted to save Tai Zhiyuan. At this time, the black mecha was about to kill Tai Zhiyuan. If he were to say that he had died because of Tai Zhiyuan, and Tai Zhiyuan had still died in the end … this would be an extremely unreconciled and infuriating matter.
It was a bit of a mouthful, but in Xu Le's mind, it was only a fleeting thought. Unreconciled, not worth it. A wave of stubborn viciousness quickly took over his entire body. The corpses lying in the pool of blood around him, as well as the innocent victims he had seen in the gymnasium earlier, stimulated his long-hidden bloodthirst.
How could he stop the black mecha's main cannon from firing? Xu Le had no choice. Although he was not an ordinary person, he was not a god either. He could only stare fixedly at the hydraulic pipe behind the mecha's right mechanical leg.
Then, a familiar image appeared before his eyes. It was a verdant valley, and behind a big tree was a black M52 mech. That uncle with a familiar face smashed into the tree like a cannonball, breaking the hydraulic pipe with a single punch. Oil shot out like a waterfall, and the M52, which had lost its balance, immediately toppled over.
Xu Le had only seen the blueprints of the mecha before the M37 series, so he did not know which aspects of the current military's most advanced M52 mecha had flaws. However, Uncle Feng Yu's ferocious figure in battle with the mecha had already given him the most profound lesson.
The military mecha that was locked onto the black car's trajectory coldly ignored the ant-like Xu Le. How could it have known that the ant had already reached out with its little pincers, trying to take a bite out of the elephant's leg?
The posture of this black M52 mech before Xu Le's eyes was too cool. It just so happened that the hydraulic pipe was exposed right in front of Xu Le's eyes. The position and angle of the hydraulic pipe closest to Xu Le were all perfect — it was like a slut sticking up her butt and telling others to come and kick her, come and kick her …
Xu Le, who had already been blinded by viciousness and bloodthirst, was moved at this moment. His heart was itching, and there was not a part of his body that was not itching. So, his whole body trembled, his face pale, his eyes extremely bright. Like a madman, he charged out, aiming at the hydraulic pipe on the black mecha's right mechanical leg, and viciously … kicked it!
