Ge Xiaolun listened to Qiangwei's words, seeing Qiangwei's just‑revealed happy expression, he was instantly overwhelmed by fear, his eyes terrified as he said:

"Qiangwei, are you still charging, still wanting to kill toward Heavenly River City centre?"

"You didn't see that just now, in the fog zone only a small squad of the Glutton vanguard sent me and Liu Chuang flying straight down from high altitude?"

"I was just a bit off, just a bit away from dying."

"If we go on to Heavenly River City centre, we will die, we will all die."

Suddenly, a rapid footsteps came from beside.

Ge Xiaolun looked over and saw Zhao Xin just arrive here, his eyes filled with panic.

Seeing Zhao Xin, Ge Xiaolun hurriedly said:

"Zhao Xin, let's go together; if we don't leave now we will definitely die here."

Qiangwei looked at Ge Xiaolun's such expression, disappointed to the extreme, but considering that a month ago Ge Xiaolun was still just a college student, she patiently advised:

"Xiaolun, now the Glutton's invasion of China has invaded Heavenly River City; we, as soldiers of the Hero Legion, as super‑soldiers possessing the Shenhe gene, have the strongest single‑combat capability in China today."

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility; with the nation in peril, we should discard life and death, slay the Gluttons, slay any enemies and aliens daring to invade China."

"Moreover, you have an invincible body; even if you die you will revive, so there's nothing to fear."

Hearing this, Ge Xiaolun's expression became excited and he said:

"I have an invincible body, I won't die, but the enemy is the Glutton, a space‑faring civilization possessing god‑slaying weapons."

"Although the god‑slaying weapon can't kill me, they might capture me alive, then study me day and night, slice me; at that point I'll be calling to heaven and earth with no answer."

Saying this, Ge Xiaolun glanced at the high sky above Heavenly River City centre, his fear growing, and said:

"Qiangwei, did you see that the centre of Heavenly River City has been completely occupied by the Gluttons, and Chinese soldiers have already retreated to the city's edge; if we charge in, we will die."

"Qiangwei, you've gone berserk; this isn't a battle we can decide, let's flee quickly."

"What?"

Qiangwei suddenly stared at Ge Xiaolun with icy, angry eyes and snapped:

"You want to be a deserter, and you want me to be a deserter too, you coward!"

Saying this, Qiangwei suddenly had a gun appear in her hand and fired continuously at Ge Xiaolun.

"Ding… ding… ding…"

The bullets struck Ge Xiaolun's dark alloy armor, making only a ding‑ding sound, leaving no trace on the armor.

Even if the bullets hit Ge Xiaolun's head, aside from causing an itchy sensation, they could inflict no damage.

Although the harm is small, the insult is extremely strong.

Qiangwei kept firing until the magazine was empty, then looked disappointedly at Ge Xiaolun and said:

"Right now you're dead; get lost, coward."

Next, Qiangwei's icy gaze fixed on Zhao Xin as she questioned:

"And you, do you want to be a deserter?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xin glanced at the distant Gluttons in the sky, his voice trembling as he said:

"Although my speed is fast, I'm a fragile target; not to mention god‑slaying weapons, even an ordinary missile could seriously injure or even kill me."

"But with the nation at stake and the Gluttons invading, I, Zhao Xin, uphold the knightly spirit; even if I die I will defend home and country, slaying all aliens who invade China."

Having said that, Zhao Xin moved his body, turning into a bolt of lightning racing toward Heavenly River City centre.

His speed was as fast as a bullet.

Seeing this, Qiangwei gave Ge Xiaolun a contemptuous glance and said to Ruimengmeng:

"The airspace over Heavenly River City centre is too dangerous; it will become a target for the Gluttons' attacks, thousands upon thousands of strikes."

"You go in from the ground, stay safe; I will fly there alone."

Ruimengmeng heard this; although she was afraid to go alone into Heavenly River City centre, she knew the air was even more dangerous, so she said:

"Sister Qiangwei, although you're already a god, you still need to be careful; after all, just now the Gluttons launched god‑slaying staffs, these god‑slaying weapons capable of heavily injuring or even killing a god."

"Hmm."

Qiangwei nodded, moved her body, and without hesitation flew toward Heavenly River City centre.

Ruimengmeng watched Qiangwei's body fly into the air, picked up a bayonet from a nearby Glutton corpse; as for the laser gun, without the system password she couldn't open it, and she immediately ran fearlessly toward Heavenly River City centre.

When encountering Gluttons blocking the road, if they were alone she would step forward a few moves and kill them.

If there were a dozen or so Gluttons, she would carefully avoid them, because a dozen Gluttons surrounding her could easily overwhelm and kill her.

Ge Xiaolun knelt on the ground, watching Qiangwei's body disappear into the sky, especially thinking of her final contemptuous gaze, his heart felt excruciating pain, and a shame he had never felt before welled up inside.

He liked Qiangwei; this was the first time in his life he had felt such strong affection for a girl.

Although Qiangwei had become Qianxunji's woman, he still loved her, deeply.

He wanted Qiangwei to look up to him, not wanting to bear her contempt, angrily cursing the coward.

Ge Xiaolun gritted his teeth, looking at the distant Gluttons in the sky, the fear in his eyes gradually replaced by anger, and he shouted:

"It's all you Gluttons that made Qiangwei look down on me, made her call me a coward, made her despise me."

"Gluttons, you truly deserve to die; for Qiangwei, I, Ge Xiaolun, would even die to take a few of you down with me."

No sooner had his words fallen than the black angel wings on Ge Xiaolun's back shuddered, and he shot into the sky.

But perhaps because he was too frightened, he took off wobbling and staggering, unable to gain height; instead he slammed into a bus ahead and fell to the ground.

"Huu… huu…"

Ge Xiaolun drew a deep breath, his gaze fixed on a kilometer‑long warship a kilometer away in the sky, and roared:

"For Qiangwei, charge!"

He stepped forward, the black wings on his back shuddered, his body shot up into the sky instantly, and he flew toward the warship in the sky at extreme speed.

At this moment, Ge Xiaolun still could not use his Void Great Sword; in his hand it was merely a heavy sword, and holding it actually hindered his speed.

Then Ge Xiaolun lowered his head and slammed hard into the cockpit of the kilometer-long warship.

"Bang!"

With that extreme speed plus Ge Xiaolun's indestructible body, he directly punched through the warship forged of hard steel, burst into the cockpit, and smashed it to pieces.

"Boom… boom…"

Suddenly, the warship, under Ge Xiaolun's impact, actually exploded outright, countless steel fragments shooting outward in all directions.

Ge Xiaolun felt only that his whole head was dizzy, he could not tell direction, and temporarily could not maintain flight; his body began to fall downward.

"Thud… thud… thud…"

After Ge Xiaolun's body suffered successive impacts against the surrounding buildings, it then crashed to the ground.

After several seconds, Ge Xiaolun slowly climbed to his feet, his whole face swollen like a pig's head, he gazed at the exploding warship in the sky and exclaimed excitedly:

"Turns out, turns out I'm this tough!"
