Chapter 988: Suffocating Oppression! Fifth‑Level Gene Modification Warrior?!

He…

Still alive?!

How is this possible!

Even though he has weathered countless storms, the man who once stood unmoving as the building tilted now cannot stop his heart from trembling.

Shock filled his eyes.

"Comrade Demon, are you okay?!"

In contrast, Liu Quan and Liao Fei's faces were full of joy, their excitement obvious.

At this moment, everyone felt as if the clouds had cleared and the sun shone through.

If Su Yang weren't naked, his body covered in blood and stench, they would really want to hug him.

"Threat, threat!"

The Mecha Soldier's AI system reacted instantly.

They were seen raising their guns uncontrollably, aiming at Su Yang.

Seeing this stance, Manager Gao's expression changed, but he did not intervene.

On the contrary, he grew keenly interested.

Indeed, he wanted to see just how powerful a body that can endure the most terrifying Electric Current is.

"Bang bang bang…"

Fire Tongue spat, Bullets tore through the air, all sweeping toward every part of Su Yang's body.

Facing the assault, Su Yang almost reflexively, instantly displayed incredible speed to flash away and dodge.

The silhouette before him suddenly vanished, and Manager Gao's expression stiffened.

Realizing belatedly, he shouted, "Stop! Do not harm the Gene Modification Warrior!"

"Bang!"

The explosion rang again.

This time it wasn't gunfire, but the sound of a skull shattering.

Gao Lingchi turned his head and looked, his Pupil suddenly constricted.

In an instant, a line of Mecha Soldiers reduced to a wobbling headless corpse.

"So fast!"

Gao Lingchi couldn't process it at all.

He lifted his gaze to meet a pair of eyes as cold as icy springs.

His body trembled.

"He who kills people is always killed, Deputy Manager Gao, I should be right in doing this, right?" Su Yang, holding a head in his hand, asked calmly.

Gao Lingchi, though his face darkened at the words, calmly replied, "These are internal commands of the Mech Suit; they are innocent."

Su Yang tilted his head slightly, puzzled, "The Mech Suit is Company property; you mean killing me has nothing to do with personal will, but rather…"

"Company's doing?"

At those words, Gao Lingchi could no longer stay calm, saying gravely, "I order you, let him go!"

Su Yang laughed, a very happy laugh.

He turned his head, staring at the terrified eyes beneath the helmet, and said softly, "With a boss like this, you deserve the suffering."

"Click!"

After speaking, Su Yang cleanly snapped his neck.

"Insulting!" Gao Lingchi roared in fury.

Before he could act, Su Yang cut in, "Deputy Manager Gao seems accustomed to pampered luxury, treating lives as grass, has it become commonplace for you?"

Huh?

Gao Lingchi was utterly stunned.

It was his first time meeting a subordinate bold enough to charge at him like this.

Not only him, Liu Quan and Liao Fei behind also wore shocked faces.

"Comrade Demon… your guts are truly big."

"Did the Electric Shock make him stupid?"

"Unclear, let's see further."

"Caution is wise."

The Emperor Company's hierarchy is severe.

If a subordinate dares to offend, dismissal is the lightest punishment.

There is no so‑called compensation decree here.

Most of White Bear City's tax revenue depends on the Three Major Companies.

Officials protect each other, colluding.

Those high‑ranking figures are nothing but empty titles.

The Enforcer colludes with the Three Major Companies.

Not exaggerating, the whole White Bear City has long been controlled by capital.

The arm can never twist past the thigh.

That's also why the Emperor Company has enjoyed an excellent reputation these years.

Who among Normal Difficulty people dares to defy superiors?

Moreover, Su Yang still has a Crystal Core inside his body.

If the Supervisor makes any move, he will die instantly.

"You dare... speak to me like that?" Gao Lingchi, furious, laughed mockingly.

Su Yang casually tossed the corpse aside and slowly walked up to him.

The two stood three feet apart, yet their auras were completely different.

Gao Lingchi, having long held a high position, had already cultivated an impressive aura.

Although the two were equal in height, their presence was still vastly different.

Su Yang, though he says he is merely a Gene-Modified Soldier, exudes a noble aura between his Brow that is far superior.

Moreover, the authority radiating from his body surpasses Gao Lingchi's by more than one grade.

At first glance, an uninformed observer would think Su Yang is the Company leader.

"Yes, and then?" Su Yang retorted.

Under their gaze, Gao Lingchi's straight Waist unexpectedly bent slightly.

He felt angry and ashamed of his Retreat, and coldly said, "I can order your execution right now!"

Su Yang suddenly raised his hand.

It was just this small gesture, but it startled Gao Lingchi, who jerked his Brain back sharply.

It looked utterly ridiculous.

"Pfft~"

Liu Quan couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

But seeing the solemn setting, he immediately closed his Mouth, adopting a "I'm very serious" expression.

Beside them, Liao Fei wasn't any better; his face turned a bruised purple.

It was because he had long practiced a stern, unsmiling demeanor; otherwise he couldn't keep it together.

Noticing the two behind him, Gao Lingchi, furious beyond measure, was about to call the Supervisor on the spot.

"You wait for me; I can't handle you, but someone can!"

Su Yang said casually, "Then let's see whether the weight of a Company's deputy manager position outweighs the weight of me, a Five-Level Gene-Modified Soldier."

As soon as the words fell, Gao Lingchi's movement suddenly halted.

He looked up, eyes full of disbelief, and his body shivered.

"Fifth... Fifth Tier?!"

"What, think I'm lying?" Su Yang smiled faintly, and continued:

"I may not speak many truths, but that sentence is absolutely true."

"If you don't believe it, have the Supervisor come down personally to 'appraise' it."

Gao Lingchi abruptly turned his head toward the dilapidated Laboratory.

He instantly realized.

Indeed!

A Mech Suit Warrior cannot even endure a single ripple.

Being at the center of the terrifying force field, how could he be of ordinary warrior level?

Not to mention anything else, the fact that he can bear twice the limit Electric Current alone proves the point.

Fourth Tier soldiers roam the ground in droves, like dogs.

But Fifth Tier still...

The company's first!

"This is impossible!"

Gao Lingchi shook his head inwardly.

In just a few short days, he managed to complete a power leap.

On what basis?

Although his body contains many Energy Factors, they are still far insufficient.

The 'Emperor' Company had long planned this.

Only the most outstanding warriors can enjoy immersion in the Gene Original Fluid.

And this is only the second Task; even if he performed perfectly, he could not receive a reward.

Moreover...

With such terrifying Electric Current voltage, how could a Fourth Tier endure it?

Countless doubts filled his mind.

At this moment, Gao Lingchi felt his worldview had been overturned.

Suddenly a feeling arose—of not knowing what night this was.

Could it be that he has derailed from this world?

Thinking of this, Gao Lingchi's heart immediately fell into an indescribable conflict.

On one hand, his authority was humiliated.

On the other hand, Su Yang's value was likely already above his own.

While he was struggling to consider, Su Yang spoke first,

"If you don't make that call, then don't blame me for being impolite."
