Chapter 167: Bully Li Yu

"Damn, a fight broke out!?"

"Someone actually dares to fight in the Tyron Tower?"

The Tyron Tower boasted an absolutely massive daily foot traffic. Right now, there were at least a few thousand people just in the first-floor lobby, not to mention the higher levels.

Sanche's sudden outburst stunned a massive number of interstellar travelers. The continuous beams of light shooting from his armor pierced through the bodies of dozens of innocent bystanders, leaving blooming crimson stains across the pristine metal floor.

Sanche moved incredibly fast. The thrusters on his back operated at full power, emitting a blazing purple flame that distorted the surrounding space.

Leaving himself no route of escape, he charged straight toward the Black-Armored Men. The armor on his left arm shifted and transformed, extending three crimson light blades from the back of his hand.

In his right hand, he held a laser rifle, unleashing a continuous barrage of fire.

"Wait!" Boiling Blood shouted loudly. However, the moment the words left his mouth, the remarkably fast Sanche had already closed the distance with the squad of Black-Armored Men.

One of the Black-Armored Men had already raised his arm. Starting from the elbow, densely packed mechanical components whirred into motion. His wrist split into two Magnetic Energy Oscillation Charge Accelerators, crackling with violent black electric arcs!

A heavy punch, resembling black thunder, slammed squarely into the chest armor of the incoming Sanche.

The fragile armor shattered like wet paper. The muffled thud of the fist striking flesh rolled like distant thunder, and a black shockwave of electric arcs erupted from the point of impact.

This punch had been charging for a long time. Its terrifying power was enough to shatter an entire building.

However, Sanche did not fly backward. Electromagnetic suction devices firmly locked his body in place.

He was rigidly pinned in mid-air, unable to be knocked away. With nowhere to vent, the horrifying kinetic force frantically tore through his internal organs.

Bang-bang-bang-bang!!

The magnetic energy oscillation accelerators operated continuously. Every single strike landed with brutal solidity. Sanche, completely immobilized, endured the stormy devastation as his physical body constantly warped and deformed!

His armor was no different from thin paper against this opponent. Forced to take the hits with his bare body, his bones were pulverized and his flesh reduced to mush!

Half of the black-armored arm was already buried deep within Sanche's chest. Broken bones pierced through his skin, and blood sprayed out like a fountain!

Boom!!

A firework of flesh and blood exploded in mid-air as all the armor on his body blew apart.

The mangled remains of Sanche crashed onto the ground. Covered in gruesome wounds and caked in blood, with deep gashes exposing bone everywhere, he bled endlessly like a torn ragdoll.

He had long since lost all vital signs. Only one widened eyeball remained, reflecting a mix of confusion and agony, while the other had been ruptured by the shockwaves.

"That is way too brutal..." Li Yu watched, his right eye twitching. The strength of these three Black-Armored Men was likely well within the realm of B-Tier Lifeforms.

They possessed crushing combat power compared to Sanche, yet they still chose to slaughter him with such vicious methods. It suggested they were more than a little deranged.

Dead? That Black-Armored Man was also a bit surprised. He had assumed anyone daring to jump out like that must have had some level of strength, so he had not dared to hold back.

But halfway through the beating, he suddenly realized something was wrong. The attacker seemed to be a mere C-Tier Lifeform. By the time he thought to pull his punches, it was already too late.

"Sanche..." Boiling Blood's face abruptly darkened, and the rest of the squad members immediately prepared for battle.

Having gone through thick and thin together for a long time, there was naturally some camaraderie among the companions. Seeing Sanche battered into such a state filled their hearts with sorrow and rage.

The black-armored squad shifted their gaze over as well. There was barely any need to wonder who the enemy was. Aside from the people fleeing in all directions and a few raising their smart terminals to record,

only the Sun-Hunter Squad had assumed combat stances. If they were not the enemy, who was?

"Warning... Warning. This is the Tyron Tower. Your actions have violated the Tyren Code. Please cease combat immediately."

"Warning... Warning. This is the Tyron Tower. Your actions have violated the Tyren Code. Please cease combat immediately."

Warning sirens blared throughout the entire Tyron Tower. In every corner, massive numbers of turrets and defensive devices activated, while the security guards of the Tyron Chamber of Commerce flooded into the area.

The black-armored squad and the Sun-Hunter Squad faced off, the air between them growing practically solid. Boiling Blood fixed his gaze tightly on that metal crate.

The other party's violent reaction had already proven Sanche's words right. Kansa was indeed inside the metal crate.

"We can talk about this matter..." the Black-Armored Man who had just struck said in a deep voice.

"Talk?" Boiling Blood suddenly chuckled, but his eyes were filled with absolute frost. Initially, he had been somewhat hesitant.

But after hearing the man's words, he abruptly made up his mind. If they had truly wanted to talk, they would not have dealt a lethal blow to Sanche!

You beat my man to death, and now you want to talk? Where is the logic in that!?

"Attack!"

He spat out the cold command. Instantly, the squad members fully deployed their combat gear. A silver-white metal briefcase was flung out, unfolding in mid-air to become a combat turret.

Several metal spheres rolled out from another member's portable compressed space, rapidly transforming into various models of intelligent robots equipped with a massive arsenal of weapons.

Boom! Boom! Bang! Bang!

In an instant, the area devolved into a battlefield. The chest plates of the three Black-Armored Men split open, their energy barriers interweaving. A bowl-shaped black shield inverted over them, blocking all incoming attacks.

On the top floor, the manager of the Tyron Tower received a notification the very moment the fight broke out. He frowned as he watched the scene play out on the surveillance monitors.

Several department heads gathered around him, asking, "Sir, should we request the deployment of a few B-Tier Lifeforms to break up the fight?"

They had just been in the middle of a meeting, only for this mess to suddenly fall into their laps. The manager felt a headache coming on. One side was definitively confirmed to be Saster's men.

The other side had an even larger backing. The higher-ups had just given him a heads-up today, telling him to cooperate and provide assistance to them for certain matters.

Who could have known that the two sides would inexplicably run into each other here, and then inexplicably start a fight? The probability of this chain of events occurring was far too low.

The manager felt as if he had been totally screwed over by a reptile. Why was he so unlucky that such a low-probability event had landed squarely on his head?

He thought carefully for a moment before grinding his teeth. "Ignore them. Evacuate the interstellar travelers in the tower and have them leave through the emergency escape passageways."

"Also, activate the energy defense devices. Try to prevent any further collateral damage."

After issuing those orders, he collapsed into his chair as if drained of all his strength. He knew perfectly well that his career as a manager would likely come to an end once this incident was over.

But there was nothing he could do. A chaotic brawl between five B-Tier Lifeforms? What was he supposed to use to stop them, his own head?

He could hardly afford to play favorites, either. If he dared to help the black-armored squad, Saster would dare to bring the Pathos Fleet right to their doorstep by tomorrow.

They would not even need to do anything. Just cruising the perimeter would be enough to make the Inuit Hub completely deserted.

As for helping Saster's men, that was naturally even more impossible.

He was just a minor figure. He felt utterly helpless. The other department heads exchanged glances, a shared glimmer of restless ambition surfacing in their eyes.

Li Yu hid behind a thick pillar. There were quite a few interstellar travelers nearby, all shivering and desperately stifling their sobs for fear of drawing attention.

The interior structures of the Tyron Tower were all coated in a layer of blue energy barriers. Though not particularly thick, they were enough to block the shockwaves of the battle.

Tyron Tower security guards were currently evacuating the interstellar travelers. For every unnatural death that occurred within the Tyron Tower, they would have to pay a massive sum in compensation.

Of course, a Tyron Tower built in a grey zone had no such regulations.

"Big brother, why aren't you scared?"

A crisp, childish voice rang out beside Li Yu's ear. He turned his head and saw a human little loli standing behind him. She wore a white princess dress and had her hair styled in two perky pigtails.

"Why aren't you scared either?" Li Yu asked in return. The girl had no one by her side; he had no idea where her guardians had gone.

"Because my mommy told me I can only be scared when she's around. If she's not here, I'm not allowed to be scared," the little loli explained with clear logic.

"So where is your mommy?"

"I don't know..." She shook her head, then widened her large eyes. "You still haven't answered my question!"

Li Yu pondered for a moment before replying, "Because I'm a child-eating alien. Every time I eat a child, I become fearless."

Pausing for a second, he added, "Especially little girls wearing white dresses."

Tap, tap... The little loli involuntarily took several steps back. Her eyes widened massively and her lips quivered as if she were about to burst into tears, yet she forcefully held them back.

A nearby individual in a blue robe, belonging to an unknown species, shot Li Yu a completely speechless look. What kind of time was this to be scaring a little girl?

"Baby... my baby, you scared Mommy to death..." A slender figure squeezed out from the crouching crowd and hugged the little loli tightly against her ample chest. Her eyes, bearing a strong resemblance to the little girl's, were brimming with tears.

"Waaah!" The little loli instantly burst into tears, her eyes blurry with crying. She pointed at Li Yu and sobbed, "Mommy... he... he wants to eat me..."

Li Yu: "..."

Only then did the woman shoot a wary look at Li Yu, holding the little loli tighter. She was wearing a black dress with a side slit. Her half-crouching posture left her fair, smooth thighs completely exposed.

"Look out!"

"Run!"

The surrounding people shouted in terror, scrambling desperately to dive out of the way. The woman looked up, her pupils shrinking in horror as she saw a black energy cannon blast hurtling straight toward them.

She instinctively tightened her embrace around the little loli and turned her back, seemingly intending to use her own body to block the laser cannon.

She did not even have the time to think about whether doing so would be effective. Driven purely by a mother's instinct, she made the ultimate sacrifice.

However, the expected explosion never came. The woman opened her eyes, only to see the nearby people staring with their variously shaped eyes widened in absolute shock.

It was as if they had witnessed something completely unbelievable.

She hurriedly turned around. The man she had just mentally labeled as a suspected pervert was slowly pinching his thumb and index finger together. Between them, a fingernail-sized black orb was continuously shrinking.

It seemed to be the very same black laser cannon blast from moments ago.

Li Yu casually popped the laser cannon directly into his mouth and started chewing it with loud crunches. He then flashed a brilliant smile and a mouthful of bright white teeth at the little loli.

The surrounding interstellar travelers looked at Li Yu with even deeper horror. Where did this absolute freak come from? He was eating energy cannons raw!

"Waaah, Mommy, don't let him eat me..." The little loli bawled once again, burying her face in the woman's chest and refusing to come out.

The woman offered an apologetic smile. Before she even had the chance to express her gratitude, the converging security guards ushered her away to evacuate.

The little loli hiding in her embrace only peeked up right before they left. Catching sight of the still-chewing Li Yu, her small face turned deathly pale from terror.

Bully Li Yu found himself in an excellent mood. He brushed off the security guards attempting to guide him away with a few perfunctory words and shifted to a new spot to spectate the battlefield.

Massive amounts of magma and frigid air were steadily eroding the shields surrounding the black-armored squad. The endless barrage of attacks left the barrier riddled with cracks, looking as though it would shatter at any moment.

Boiling Blood had not joined the direct fray. He maintained only a single posture: drawing his Mechanical Giant Bow to its absolute limit. The bowstring was pulled taut, the gears locking firmly into place. A black-feathered arrow was aimed squarely at the shield, yet he held his fire.

"Captain, prepare to use the shield jammer for the final strike..." In their internal comms channel, the team was communicating closely.

Several intelligent robots tossed out four metal disks that landed in four distinct corners. Dense metal fragments floated upward, connecting via electric arcs to form a specialized magnetic field.

Within its range, the energy barriers attached to the building architecture instantly flickered uncontrollably, while the already fragile black shield shattered outright.

In a flash, a streak of dark radiance shot forth. It was almost imperceptible to the naked eye as it hurtled straight toward the black-armored squad.

The surrounding air churned violently, subjected to an invisible crushing pressure that emitted thunderous sonic booms.

The black-armored squad had long noticed Boiling Blood drawing his bow, but they showed absolutely no intention of dodging. Instead, they moved in perfect unison, stepping in front of the central Black-Robed Figure to act as living shields.

Six massive mechanical hands extended out simultaneously, fusing together through energy channels. The thrusters built into their cross-sectioned wrists spewed blue flames as the six mechanical hands formed a barricade in front of them!

Crack! Amid the screeching sounds of twisting and rupturing metal, the black-feathered arrow pierced cleanly through all six palms and drove itself directly into the chest armor of the squad leader.

Boom!

Flames erupted, yet the Black-Armored Man remained completely motionless, even though the mechanical arms had been blown to pieces.

However, it caused no actual casualties. Boiling Blood's expression shifted slightly. He raised a hand, and the black-feathered arrow shot backward out of the smoke, returning to him.

Immediately after, two black silhouettes lunged forward furiously. Tearing through the surrounding magma and frost, they slammed heavily into Nobus, who was standing in their path. Crossing his arms defensively, Nobus gouged deep trenches into the metal floor as he was violently shoved back several dozen meters.

Their arm armor had blown apart from intercepting the black-feathered arrow moments ago, exposing ashen-white skin with clear, pulsating azure veins.

The two Black-Armored Men moved in near-perfect synchronization. They unhooked metal grips from their waists, instantly igniting two phantom-like Jet-Black Light Swords as they lunged toward Nobus and Boiling Blood.

Nobus let out a low, rumbling growl. Wielding his Red and White Twin Blades, he roared and charged to meet them. Boiling Blood grasped a sci-martial arts weapon in each of his four arms, his massive physique exuding an unparalleled sense of oppression. The four combatants clashed in a chaotic melee.

The remaining members of the Sun-Hunter Squad were not idle either. They locked their sights onto the injured Black-Armored Man and the Black-Robed Figure. Multicolored lasers flew wildly through the air. Even though the Black-Armored Man was wounded, they did not dare to recklessly approach him.

"Harry, what the hell are you doing!?" one of the Sun-Hunter Squad members wailed in agony. A lightsaber had impaled him cleanly through the abdomen. Following a brutal horizontal slash, he was cleaved right in half!

Viscous blood, mixed with unidentifiable organs, sprayed across the floor. He died on the spot.

Harry then proceeded to engage another squad member in a vicious fight, completely deaf to his comrade's desperate shouts.

Li Yu's heart gave a slight jolt. 'Mind control?' It had to be the work of that Black-Robed Figure.

Lowering his body, he slowly crept toward their direction.
