Chapter 237: I say

The wind outside the abandoned mine in the South District carried a chill; Lin Guodong gripped the long knife in his hand,

black armor clinging to his body, a mask covering most of his face. He arrived at the appointed time,

and over a dozen people in the same black clothes were already standing on the open ground—all "allies" in the masked man's words, each holding a weapon, their eyes filled with ferocity.

The masked man walked out of the shadows, holding a map: "The target is the Starfire Group's Southwest supply point; there is only one squad of patrol members there,

our mission is to snatch all the supplies and then frame it on the mutant beasts outside the city."

Someone stood out to question: "The Starfire Group's patrol team isn't a pushover; if we are discovered, we won't be able to run at all."

The masked man sneered: "Those who are afraid can get out; those who stay, follow Lin Guodong; he is an awakened one and can keep you safe."

Everyone's gaze fell on Lin Guodong, with suspicion, disdain, and curiosity. Lin Guodong took a step forward, raised his hand to grab a millstone-sized rock nearby,

used his arms to exert force, and the rock was lifted high above his head, then smashed heavily onto the ground, making a loud noise and cracking the ground.

The questioning sound disappeared instantly, and everyone's eyes changed, filled with awe.

Lin Guodong threw away the crushed stone dust in his hands, his voice hoarse: "Those who don't want to die, follow me and listen to my command."

The team set off, the night being the best cover. The lights at the Southwest supply point were dim,

five patrol members were gathered around a fire, and the warehouse next to them was piled high with grain and medicine.

Lin Guodong made a gesture, and the team scattered immediately, forming a encirclement.

"Do it." Lin Guodong drank low.

He rushed out first, the long knife slicing through the night sky, and one patrol member hadn't even reacted

before being slashed to the ground. The remaining four patrol members immediately picked up weapons to counterattack,

gunfire sounding, bullets shooting toward Lin Guodong. Lin Guodong didn't dodge or evade, the bullets hitting his armor and only making a clattering sound, not leaving a single mark.

He rushed in front of a patrol member, swung a punch, and the other's body flew out directly, hitting the warehouse wall and losing all life.

The other three patrol members were scared deathly pale and turned to run, but were intercepted by other black-clad men and quickly dealt with.

The warehouse door was opened, and the black-clad men started moving the supplies, Lin Guodong guarding the entrance,

looking around vigilantly. Just then, rapid footsteps came from the distance; it was the Starfire Group's reinforcement unit, a full twenty people.

"Bad, we've been discovered, run." A black-clad man shouted.

Lin Guodong stopped him: "What are you running for? With me here, they can't get in."

He carried the long knife and walked toward the reinforcement unit. The squad leader of the reinforcement unit saw him,

and shouted loudly: "Drop your weapons and surrender, otherwise you will be killed without mercy."

Lin Guodong didn't speak, just quickened his pace. The squad leader waved his hand,

over a dozen gun barrels aimed at him, and bullets poured out. Lin Guodong rushed into the crowd,

the long knife dancing, screams rising one after another. His speed was extremely fast,

his strength extremely great, and no one could block his moves. The twenty-person reinforcement unit was completely disintegrated in less than five minutes, the squad leader trampled under his feet, unable to move.

"Speak, who sent you?" the squad leader roared.

Lin Guodong raised his foot and crushed his bones directly. He turned to look at those black-clad men,

who were looking at him in a daze, having already loaded the supplies onto the vehicles.

"Go." Lin Guodong drank.

The vehicle convoy disappeared into the night, leaving only corpses and messy supplies on the ground.

The next day, the news of the Starfire Group's Southwest supply point being attacked spread throughout the safe zone,

and hearts were filled with panic. Lin Chen sat in the command tower, looking at the report, his face gloomy.

Just then, the communicator rang, and a strange voice came from it: "Lin Chen, if you want the supply point to be safe, bring fifty kilograms of explosives to trade,

the location is the valley outside the city, tomorrow at noon, you come alone, don't bring any attendants."

The communicator was hung up, and Lin Chen clenched his fists, his eyes cold. He knew,

this was a provocation, the other side testing his bottom line.

The next day at noon, Lin Chen arrived at the valley on time, over a hundred people standing in the valley,

Lin Guodong standing at the very front, the masked man standing beside him.

"Lin Chen, you really came." Lin Guodong took off his mask, a crazy smile on his face.

Lin Chen looked at him: "You did this."

"So what if I did?" Lin Guodong took a step forward, "You destroyed everything I had, and I will destroy your Starfire Group; today is your death day."

"Just you?" Lin Chen sneered.

The masked man stood out: "Lin Chen, don't be too arrogant; we have three awakened ones here, and fifty mechanical cyborgs; you won't be able to fly away today."

Three awakened ones walked out from the crowd, emitting powerful auras, and fifty mechanical cyborgs also stood out, their machine guns aimed at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen's eyes turned cold, and he raised his hand, Absolute Territory instantly unfolding.

Lin Guodong laughed loudly: "Your Absolute Territory is useless against me; my combat power has far surpassed yours."

He rushed out, breaking through the barrier of Absolute Territory, and threw a punch toward Lin Chen's face.

The fist carried a whistling wind, its power astonishing. Lin Chen dodged to the side, the ice blade unsheathed, and stabbed toward Lin Guodong's chest.

Lin Guodong didn't dodge or evade, the ice blade stabbing into his armor and only making a crisp sound.

He grabbed the ice blade with his backhand, pulled hard, and the ice blade was actually snapped into two pieces.

Lin Chen's pupils contracted; he didn't expect Lin Guodong's combat power to be this strong.

Lin Guodong punched Lin Chen in the abdomen, and Lin Chen flew backward,

vomiting blood. He stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"One Punch Man." Lin Chen drank low, his figure flashing, and he rushed in front of Lin Guodong.

Lin Guodong also threw a punch, the two fists colliding, making a loud noise. The surrounding trees were shaken violently,

leaves falling one after another. Lin Guodong retreated three steps, but Lin Chen stood motionless.

"Your power is just so-so." Lin Chen said.

Lin Guodong's face changed; he didn't expect Lin Chen's power to be this strong as well. He was about to rush up again, but was stopped by the masked man.

"Stop." The masked man said, "Lin Chen, let's make a deal; hand over the control of the Starfire Group, and we can spare your life."

Lin Chen looked at him: "Do you think I will agree?"

"You have no choice." The masked man waved his hand, and the three awakened ones and fifty mechanical cyborgs all rushed up.

Lin Chen's eyes turned completely cold, the temperature around him dropping sharply, and the cold air of Absolute Zero erupting instantly.

The mechanical cyborgs rushing at the front were instantly frozen, then shattered into powder.

The movements of the three awakened ones also slowed down, their bodies covered in ice layers.

Lin Guodong roared, a powerful aura erupting from his body, and the cold air was actually forced back.

He rushed toward Lin Chen again, his fist carrying even greater power.

Lin Chen met him, the two fists colliding again. This time,

Lin Guodong's arm was directly shattered, and he flew backward, falling heavily to the ground.

Lin Chen walked to his front, looking down at him.

"You lost." Lin Chen said.

Lin Guodong looked at him, his eyes filled with unwillingness and hatred. He wanted to struggle to stand up, but found he didn't even have the strength to move a finger.

The masked man saw the situation was lost and turned to run. Lin Chen raised his hand, a wave of cold air shooting over, and the masked man was instantly frozen.

The remaining black-clad men were scared out of their wits, throwing down their weapons one after another, kneeling on the ground to beg for mercy.

Lin Chen looked at them, his voice cold: "Speak, who is your mastermind."

No one dared to speak, everyone keeping their heads down, their bodies trembling.

Lin Chen's eyes turned even colder, and he raised his hand, the cold air spreading again.

"I say, I say." A black-clad man shouted hurriedly. ===== CHAPTER 238 =====
