Chapter 25: Firefly Beats Red Light Progenitor
"Chairman Bai, 'Hope Town: Elizabeth Greene', who is imprisoned in the Gentek laboratory, has suddenly awakened!"
Just after recruiting Alex, the other end of the walkie-talkie brought Meng Yi another 'surprise'.
The sound from the walkie-talkie, besides 'surprise', also included the roaring of guns and cannons, the roars of super soldiers, and the screams of monsters.
Meng Yi’s expression remained unmoved, and he went straight to the point: "Is there any certainty of suppression?"
"Forget it."
Just after asking, Meng Yi gave up the idea of counting on the Blackwatch super soldiers. The mental field spread overwhelmingly, and a highly concentrated mental body appeared in Meng Yi’s mental vision.
'Target locked, secondary lock confirmed—'
'Psionic Interference: Wide-area Mental Impact!'
Several kilometers away, Meng Yi didn't say a word, and started shooting dense mind blades.
"Roar—!!!"
The sound in the walkie-talkie was even more complicated. The Red Light Virus Progenitor, who encountered the mental impact, let out a miserable howl that didn't sound like a human, but it resisted Meng Yi’s wave of mental impact without falling down.
"Chairman Bai, I don't know what happened just now, but 'Elizabeth Greene' is escaping regardless of everything!"
Meng Yi frowned; the distance was too far, and his state hadn't recovered to its peak.
The mental attack that should have been able to knock the Red Light Progenitor down just made it go berserk.
"Persist, support will arrive soon."
"At all costs, even if all of you die, you must drag 'Hope Town: Elizabeth Greene' down for me!"
At the other end of the walkie-talkie, the super soldiers who were fighting the Red Light Virus Progenitor nodded fiercely and answered forcefully.
"Yes, sir!"
After hanging up the call, Meng Yi tortured the Red Light Progenitor’s mind with continuous mental impacts while turning to look at Firefly not far behind him, and said: "I have to trouble you for a favor."
"Go and suppress 'Hope Town: Elizabeth Greene', who has started a riot. Can you do it?"
Firefly gave a standard Blackwatch military salute, her face serious: "No problem! Guarantee to complete the mission!"
Having eaten and lived for free for so long, how could she not help out?
Alex, who had just joined Meng Yi’s command, wanted to say that he could also help.
But he saw the cracks on the girl’s body blooming with brilliant light, and cyan high-temperature flames lingering around her body, forming a pair of flame wings behind her back.
Following the hints given by the communication equipment, Firefly recognized the direction, and the flame wings shook violently. The flames surrounding her body directly melted the reinforced concrete walls of the apartment into red fluid, and the silver-haired girl in a combat suit flew into the high sky.
Mach 1, Mach 2, Mach 3, Mach 4, Mach 5.
Mach rings that broke the sound barrier exploded one after another behind her, and the windows of the surrounding high-rise buildings were all shattered.
Whether it was the infected catalyzed by the Red Light Progenitor or the Blackwatch soldiers fighting the infected, they were all suppressed on the ground by the high-strength wind pressure passing by.
'A-Brother', no, 'Little A', who had come to his senses, smacked his lips.
"O God! Is this still human? Who is the monster!"
Meng Yi rubbed his somewhat stiff face and boasted: "See? This is my technology! And the new humans of the future!"
Hearing this, Alex was immediately amazed, and his eyes looking at Meng Yi were like looking at God descending to the world in mythology.
"Boss, it has to be you! I, Alex, am convinced!"
Meng Yi waved his hand low-key, shamelessly continuing to stick gold on his face.
"Trivial matter, not worth mentioning."
Although he had an estimation of Firefly’s combat power, seeing it happen in front of him still made Meng Yi stunned for a moment, and he could only explain it with 'a thin camel is bigger than a horse'.
……
The cyan flame beam flew at supersonic speed, and the intense high temperature carried caused the air to distort.
It was like an unstoppable spear thrown by a giant, and like a Sword of Damocles falling from the sky.
It finally easily pierced the outer layer of the Gentek building several kilometers away, pinning the pile of disorderly distorted flesh and blood to the surface.
Smoke and dust dissipated, the human form of the Red Light Progenitor no longer existed, turning into a tentacle monster made of distorted flesh and blood more than ten meters tall. Most of the proliferating tentacles were burned to ashes by Firefly, looking extremely miserable.
"Is the enemy you? You ugly bad guy!"
"Roar——!"
Answering Firefly was a roar of extreme anger.
The instinct to survive made the Red Light Progenitor, who had long since lost its mind under the round of mental impacts, begin a desperate counterattack. The tentacle monster, which was inconvenient to move, quickly grew dense bone-like leg structures under its feet.
The monster’s leg bones, which made people’s sanity drop, exerted force until they collapsed, and the body jumped high, opening its ferocious giant mouth, intending to swallow, chew, digest, and absorb Firefly!
'Order: Flash Burn Propulsion!'
The girl clenched her pink fist, flames clung to her fist, the wings behind her vibrated, and she bombarded the enemy’s incoming offensive from bottom to top.
"Boom——!!"
Firefly, walking on fire, smashed a skull-like structure of the Red Light Progenitor with one punch, and the cyan flames like maggots on the tarsal bone spread along with it.
Without sufficient 'nutrients', this battle couldn't be fought at all.
The Red Light Progenitor cut off its tail to survive, actively abandoning the flesh and blood on the outer layer ignited by the flames, and jumped out of the distorted flesh and blood with a more flexible new body, running wildly outside the Gentek building.
One exchange made the Red Light Progenitor understand that it had to eat more flesh and blood to fight a war of attrition with the enemy, otherwise it would be easily hammered.
"Want to run? You can't run!"
Firefly’s slender palm grasped an exoskeleton horn of the five-meter-tall ferocious monster, her slender arm muscles exerted force, and she directly pressed the monster to the ground, unable to move.
One punch!
The Red Light Progenitor struggled to resist.
Two punches!
The Red Light Progenitor wanted to repeat the same trick.
Three punches!
The Red Light Progenitor was gasping for breath, breathing more than exhaling, and was beaten into a coma by Firefly.
This was not an evenly matched battle at all; this was an absolutely lopsided abuse.
……
Not long after, Meng Yi, Alex, General Randall, and others arrived at the scene.
The internal structure of the Gentek building had been devastated by the monster-level confrontation just now, with only a few load-bearing columns still persisting.
Fortunately, a few hours ago, due to Meng Yi’s order to forcibly evacuate the ordinary people of Gentek, only super soldiers were left to guard the Red Light Progenitor, so there were no major casualties.
The super soldiers, covered in dust, crawled out of the ruins, all of them doubting life because of the amazing combat power Firefly exploded.
"Report Officer, the mission is complete! Please inspect!"
Firefly dissipated the high-temperature flames and jumped off the Red Light Progenitor with light steps. Before leaving, she seemed to think the opponent was too disgusting and kicked the Red Light Progenitor twice.
The combat suit on her body didn't know what material it was made of, and it was still intact until now. ===== CHAPTER 26 =====
