It’s that brat; I’d recognize him even if he were burned to ashes!\" Qi Qin guaranteed: \"They said he delivered himself right to their doorstep while they were grabbing that little girl... Damn it, after dragging it out for so long, I thought something had gone wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jin couldn't help but stand up. He paced back and forth in the office, lost in thought for a long time, then nodded firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very good. Mingzai did a good job with this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed at the burly man at the office door. The man chuckled but said nothing. The old man then continued: \"You all get ready. I’m going to contact 'that side.' Once they arrive, send him over immediately to avoid any complications.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If this is handled well, there will be no shortage of money or goods for you. You must put your heart into it! Bai Yi, you get ready too. Don't let that little bastard cook up any nasty schemes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood, Boss.\" In the shadows of the corner, the slightly gaunt man nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After making the call, Jiang Jin returned to his chair. Looking back at the bustling traffic outside the window, he couldn't help but smile. If that kid really was a Heaven-Chosen Summoner... then this time, he was going to make a fortune!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned back in his chair, finding a comfortable position to admire the scenery on the bridge outside. Whenever this happened, he felt as if the entire Yacheng was right before his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Intoxicating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the elevated road was right next to them, bringing constant noise, it was worth it for the convenient, multi-directional traffic. If anything went wrong, it would be simple and easy to run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that, after today, he might consider moving to a better place. If he could successfully wash his hands of this and secure the outsourcing business for the Anquan Bureau, he might be able to climb even higher in the future...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But suddenly, he saw a faint red light rise from the neon lights outside the window, drifting so erratically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a bird.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soaring through the night sky, it drew closer, peering inward through the glass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Drone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jin was stunned for a moment, instinctively feeling that something was wrong, but the camera drone that Ji Jue had swiped from Laila quickly gained altitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It cleared the space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then, a piercing horn sound rapidly grew from faint to loud—along with those two dazzling headlights!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, on the elevated bridge outside the window, a battered van in the middle of the traffic suddenly accelerated—its four tires spinning wildly, emitting sharp friction sounds and nearly sparking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, it swerved, accelerated, flipped over the guardrail in the middle of the road, crossed the flow of traffic in the opposite lane, and without losing momentum, crushed over the broken guardrail. The raised front of the van had already cleared the edge of the elevated road and surged out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just like a hurdler, agile to the point of being unbelievable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It whistled through the air!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flying straight toward the building standing in the night, a dozen meters away!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dazzling headlights shone their high beams like the eyes of a monster, rapidly enlarging, enlarging, and enlarging again from the air outside the glass...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Jin didn't even have time to distinguish if the vehicle looked familiar; instinctively, he bolted. At the critical moment, his bodyguard Bai Yi reached out and grabbed him, moving with unbelievable speed, and they instantly rushed out of the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Qi Qin remained frozen in place, staring blankly at the rapidly enlarging lights, instinctively reaching out and screaming in despair: \"Save—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The floor-to-ceiling glass shattered, turning into a rain of shards under the impact of the van like a cannonball, scattering in all directions. And the uninvited guest that had fallen from the sky had already crashed head-on into the entire office!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Falling!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It crushed the expensive yellow rosewood table with unstoppable force, seemingly running over someone in the process. The tires fell off, but the sliding momentum could not be stopped until it crashed through half a wall and finally came to a sudden halt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dust and thick smoke danced in the air. After the loud noise, only the song echoing in the dead silence remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming from the car radio, a joyous, celebratory hymn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Singing of a beautiful life, a beautiful future!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the door, Jiang Jin’s expression twitched. Before he could react to what was happening, his gaze was drawn to the blood-soaked face beneath the vehicle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Qin was vomiting blood in large mouthfuls, struggling to reach out to him, his lips moving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed he was begging for something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, a foot stepped on his face and ground down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Crack.* Silence followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please don't be afraid, everyone. We are peace-loving Autobots!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dispersing smoke, a young face faintly emerged, enthusiastically introducing himself: \"I am the leader of the Autobots, Optimus Prime. I have come here today specifically to take you all to Cybertron to watch the Spring Festival Gala and eat dumplings together~!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before they could react, deadly toxic fire and light erupted from the dissipating smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if dozens of lines of fire bloomed out of thin air in an instant, piercing through the thick fog and dust, whistling out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Lu Feng's hand was a Defender Type-9 submachine gun, a weapon for urban warfare highly praised by the Federal Empire and even terrorists alike—sturdy, durable, stable, and reliable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nine-millimeter caliber bullets, modified magazine with 45 rounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the trigger held down, in this space that was already point-blank range on the battlefield, he emptied the entire magazine in less than three seconds!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the short, continuous loud noises, the muzzle in Lu Feng's hand swept across, locked tightly onto the figure scurrying away with his head in his hands. Suddenly, Ji Jue only heard constant wailing and screaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the door, those lackeys who hadn't figured out what was happening didn't even have time to show their heads before they fell to the ground cleanly, like wheat falling in the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Lu Feng had already tossed aside the empty submachine gun, reached back, pulled out another one, and pulled the trigger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his left hand, he pulled a flashbang from his pocket, skillfully bit off the pin, and tossed it along the ground. The flashbang rolled, hit the corner of the wall outside the door, rolled into a blind spot, and exploded with a bang, bringing a little fresh stimulation and surprise to those lucky enough not to be dead yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kill him! Kill him!!!\" Protected by his subordinates, Jiang Jin was furious, roaring and screaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right in front of him, a burly man spread his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shielded Jiang Jin, blocking Lu Feng's muzzle head-on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took over sixty percent of the bullets!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His skin had turned silver-white, like metal. Sharp metal barbs and prisms grew from his body, covering him and turning into thick armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And on his most vulnerable face, a ferocious ghost mask appeared!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Metalization!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a Heaven-Chosen of the Wasteland Dao. Although it wasn't clear what the matrix was, it was definitely a higher rank than Ji Jue's. Ordinary bullets hitting him couldn't break through that defense, which was even better than a bulletproof vest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it couldn't compare to Sister Wen at all—Ji Jue really wanted to say that, but after experiencing one time where the two of them joined forces to slaughter everything, he understood the terrifying gap between himself and her even better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opponents who were nothing to her were already enough to torture and kill him hundreds of times!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Feng, flashbangs, don't stop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Jue shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was obvious that the previous flash and violent shock had caused the opponent to fall into temporary stagnation and dizziness, but since he was temporarily controlled, he should just be controlled until he died!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Feng clearly understood this logic even better than Ji Jue. He strode forward, stepping over blood and shell casings. After emptying the submachine gun, he pulled out the Annihilator shotgun from his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What sprayed out from it were slugs carefully prepared for such high-defense targets!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roaring sound was incessant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With every shell casing ejected, one could see a large dent appear on the burly man's armor. Deformed shrapnel either flew off or embedded itself, and the terrifying impact actually pushed him, sliding him backward slowly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bai Yi—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heaven-Chosen under the ghost mask shouted hoarsely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just outside the office, in the devastated area, the Heaven-Chosen who had dragged Jiang Jin into a corner finally breathed a sigh of relief. He turned his head, raised his hand to his lips, and blew a silent whistle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the flickering lights, the shadows boiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those shadows writhed, gathered, and converged, actually turning into a solid form, outlining a strange monster with six legs and eight arms that kept writhing. It was light as if it had no weight, charging straight toward Lu Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bullets hit it, tearing open a large hole, but then the shadow beast's wounds instantly healed. Aside from consuming a bit of spiritual essence, it was practically unscathed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After one strike failed, Lu Feng had already withdrawn his gaze, focusing intently on suppressing the ghost-masked Heaven-Chosen in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't even look at it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the office behind him, Ji Jue didn't even need to wave his hand; the iron creation that had been impatient for a long time also flew out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The seemingly dog-like little sheep leaped up, its shell splitting in mid-air. Countless mechanical modules rubbed and changed, and before the rotation ended, it had turned into a unrecognizable dragon-blood monster, roaring loudly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the roar was no different from a horn, at least it couldn't be weak in momentum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that, it collided with the shadow beast that didn't fear piercing at all, falling from mid-air. The shadow beast shook violently, hissing silently. Limbs lashed out, entangled, and turned into sharp blades, as if to tear it apart in an instant, but then, a piercing friction sound rang out, and sparks flew!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps Lawrence was right: the Wasteland Dao, as matter itself, is the path left behind by the dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little ox-horse fused with dragon blood looked like a plastic motorcycle, but the sturdiness of its main body was already superior to many special alloys in the world! Even if it hit a fully loaded Nanfeng big truck head-on, it could punch a motorcycle-shaped hole straight through it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, whether Ji Jue, who was riding on it at the time, would be dead or alive was another matter...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the little ox-horse was in its strongest unmanned form, having gone completely crazy for the unlimited chicken leg feast Ji Jue had promised!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chicken legs, awesome!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlimited chicken legs, unlimited awesomeness!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the constant echoing of the sharp horn, its five sharp claws tore and scratched wildly, dragging the shadow beast to roll, collide, swallow, and bite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though it was a spiritual shadow beast that was difficult for ordinary matter to damage, it was now actually becoming panicked and fearful under the biting of that giant mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The destroyed limbs and body actually couldn't recover!?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"F*ck you!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the continuous bombardment of the shotgun, the armored Heaven-Chosen Ming Yan roared in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dizziness brought by the continuous flashbangs, the steel crystal clusters all over his body suddenly surged again, forming a large shield on his bent arm that was constantly breaking and constantly repairing itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that, he held the large shield in front of him, moving forward step by step against the bombardment of the slugs, approaching Lu Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smile under the ghost mask became even more ferocious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at that moment, Lu Feng actually lowered his muzzle, and without hesitation, tossed the shotgun, whose barrel was about to burn red, to the side and raised his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Feng, it's ready.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ji Jue's voice came through the headset, he had already standardly and fluidly knelt on the ground with his head in his hands, his elbows touching the floor, as if kowtowing to a god or Buddha...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the standard, infuriatingly perfect, anti-artillery prone position!\u003C\u002Fp>",2087,"2026-06-17T22:07:39.404Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","1f9dc0c0f41d3f559df9f099ea5d777a85e92807405615cbe3fb9a4c86914f73","above-destiny-chapter-45","above-destiny-chapter-43",461,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabove-the-heavenly-fate-cover.jpg"]
