As soon as they finished speaking, the cube monster let out a muffled gasp. It then strode towards Old Charlie with its two strangely long arms. Every step it took shook the ground slightly. Even the coffee cup and the spoon on the table clanged against each other. It was a testament to how strong the monster was.
Old Charlie did not even look at the monster. He picked up the bag, turned around, and coughed twice. He then slowly walked back into his private room, completely ignoring the terrifying monster!
It must be noted that the body of Test Subject No. 1 was still covered in blood and human tissue! How could he dare to turn his back to the monster?
Everyone admired Old Charlie's fearlessness, but little did they know that Old Charlie had been through a lot ever since he started following Sheyan. A mere test subject like Old Charlie was really not worth mentioning at all. Old Charlie had been through a lot of hardships ever since he started following Sheyan.
The Test Subject strode towards Old Charlie. The block-like muscles on its huge arms creaked as it swung its arm at Old Charlie!
But at that moment, the wooden floor under Old Charlie's feet strangely glowed with a touch of green. It seemed to have produced a very powerful lifting effect. Old Charlie's step was surprisingly large, and he instantly escaped the attack range of the Test Subject.
The Test Subject's fist smashed hard on the wooden floor!
Here, it was time to mention the problem of the floor. Originally, in interstellar travel, things like building materials were all standardized cement, which had been specially designed. Not only could it solidify quickly, but it was also easy to transport. Now that flying units were often measured in light years, the cost of transportation was a big problem. Therefore, the use of wood was a very extravagant practice in other places.
But Alps Base 7 was blessed with unique conditions in this regard.
There was a planet less than 30 million kilometers away from here. The planet had a high concentration of nitrogen and argon, so a very special kind of plant had grown there. This plant was similar to the moss on Earth. It grew densely all over the planet, but its size was comparable to a banyan tree! Therefore, in Alps Base 7, it was more cost-effective to use this plant called "giant moss" as a building material.
At this time, the wooden floor that the test subject hit was made of the giant moss wood. Because of its special texture, the wooden floor immediately exploded. In the face of such an irresistible force, the giant mosses shattered into numerous sharp wooden spikes like car glass before splashing out in all directions.
At that moment, a green light flashed under Old Charlie's feet again. He immediately retreated from his forward stride. Then, with his retreating foot as the centre, he spun 180 degrees and slapped Test Subject No. 1 in the face before it could retract its giant arm!
Test Subject No. 1 had already wrapped his two terrifying giant arms around Old Charlie's waist in an attempt to break the enemy's spine, but he suddenly froze on the spot. Five or six seconds later, the square-shaped, muscular monster twitched violently all over, then fell face down powerlessly!
The atmosphere in the auction house suddenly became as awkward as a dead silence.
Sheyan was the only one who knew what had happened during this period. He had summoned Ramtas. Ramtas was an expert in tier 1 and 2 nature spells to begin with. The spell that caused Old Charlie's speed to suddenly increase was a very simple tier 1 nature spell, 'Great Stride'.
(Tier 1 nature spell, 'Great Stride'. Uses the power of nature to trigger the target's potential and increase the target's movement speed by 0.8 m/s. Lasts for 60 seconds. When the target is in a forest, grassland, or a large number of plants, the spell's duration will be extended accordingly.)
The reason why Old Charlie's next slap was so lethal was because he had caught a wooden spike about 10 centimeters long in the air and held it between his fingers when he slapped Sheyan.
This wooden spike was very ordinary. When the Giant Moss Tree was blasted apart, due to the material it was made of, there were hundreds and thousands of these wooden spikes that were sent flying. Ramtas cast a tier 2 nature spell on one of the wooden spikes.
[Animate Wood: Turns a small wooden object or smaller into an animate object.]
After that, Old Charlie slapped the wooden spike into the right eye of Test Subject No. 1 and pierced it deep into the brain. The wooden spike was then animated into a hedgehog. When the frightened hedgehog found itself in the warm and sticky environment of the brain, the first thing it did was to erect the spikes on its body!
Even bullets could not penetrate the thick skin of Test Subject No. 1, but that did not mean that its brain could still function normally after being hit like that! Otherwise, why would it use alloy steel to build its skull?
That was why Old Charlie was able to knock down the fierce Test Subject No. 1 with just a slap.
The eyes of the people around him were now filled with fear as they looked at Old Charlie. To be honest, because of Old Charlie's former identity as a noble of the Empire, his whole family was more likely to be bullied and humiliated after he fell on hard times. Which one of the people present had not despised and humiliated him? Some of them even treated him like a field of rice and chased him away because he was dirty, and some of them even scolded him for being within ten meters of him because he smelled bad.
But this guy, who was forced to sell himself as an android, had a new lease on life. The powerful biochemical test subject, who was even wearing advanced military-standard combat armour, was actually killed by this old man who seemed to have broken bones with a single slap! What the hell was that?!
More importantly … if this old man wanted to deal with him, he could kill him with a flick of his finger!
As soon as Test Subject No. 1 died, all pretenses of cordiality between the two sides were torn apart. There was no need for Sheyan to say anything. Old Charlie naturally knew what to do. His indecisiveness in the past had cost him his reputation, and his whole family had fallen to the bottom of society. Now that he had become so powerful, he was even more fearless!
Therefore, after Old Charlie slapped Test Subject No. 1 to death, he immediately bent his body and rushed towards the private room. At this moment, Old Charlie's Dexterity was twice that of a healthy adult male from ancient Earth when he ran at full speed. In other words, it was 3.5 to 4 times the Dexterity of modern humans, not to mention the powerful bonus from running in big strides.
Therefore, after Old Charlie sprinted towards Grant, he used him as a shield, grabbed him by the neck, and forcibly pushed him into the private room.
At this time, Old Charlie was still hunched over and trembling, but his movements were like a ghost. Therefore, the people in the box opened fire without hesitation. Smoke and wood chips flew everywhere, exposing the people inside.
There were a total of four people in the private room.
One of them was a young man in his twenties. His face was pale, his eyes were wandering, and his footsteps were unsteady, but his eyes were very sinister. The clothes he was wearing were somewhat unique. They were similar to a tuxedo, but they had a large curly collar that stood up at the neck. They gave off a twisted and gorgeous feeling.
Moreover, the texture of the clothes was quite unique. Following the movements of the wearer, the fabric would actually ripple like water. It was truly breathtaking to look at.
The young man was the only one who was sitting down.
The other three people were standing, but even if they were standing, the difference in status could be clearly seen.
The man closest to the young man was also a muscular man, but he had the same build as Sheyan. He was strong and fit, unlike the Experimentals who were built with muscles. The man was wearing sunglasses and had his arms crossed in front of his chest. He seemed to be disdainful of everything around him.
He was obviously the young man's last line of defence.
In front of the man was an old man. The old man should be a butler or a secretary, responsible for arranging all the trivial matters, big or small. Of course, he would also come up with some bad ideas. To put it bluntly, Old Charlie and Jinkuang would play similar roles if Sheyan were to transform into a hedonistic young master.
The one standing at the outermost circle was a monster who was holding a gun in both hands. Oh, no, it should be a monster whose hands had been transformed into weapons. He was firing wildly. The unlucky Grant's body was cruelly torn into several pieces by his bullets, but he still could not even scratch Old Charlie's skin. He was only able to force Old Charlie behind an obstacle. Smoke rose from the pillar and a large number of concrete blocks scattered in all directions!
At this time, what were the people who came to participate in the auction waiting for? They must have scattered in an extremely chaotic manner. Fortunately, this wasn't a concert, and it was held in a hurry. Only a dozen people came. Including the entourage, there were more than 30 people. If they wanted to run, it would be quite fast.
In the midst of the chaos, a grey shadow shot out like a bolt of lightning and pierced through the chest of the bionic monster whose hands had been transformed into weapons! Immediately, lightning curled up and crackled as it exploded. Bursts of black smoke were also emitted.
The grey shadow was none other than the bristles shot out by Ramtas. The bionic monster did not seem to have been hit in the vitals. Even though his chest was still covered in electric sparks and black smoke, he still tried to turn around and open fire. His left hand was rapidly transforming into an energy weapon, and he was about to aim and fire. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
