Chapter 215: Ark General Lei Nuo

The operation began.

Wen Xishu, as the vanguard, began to move upward under Horn's control, also responsible for clearing the way for Horn. Hugo pushed Horn's wheelchair, and with Horn's verbal description, Hugo judged the path.

All three headed toward the upper levels of the spherical building.

Above the rest area of the spherical building is the functional level. And above the functional level is the administrative level.

From the moment they enter the functional level, they will attract law enforcers.

If they shake off these law enforcers and enter the administrative level, they need to reach the central area of the administrative level, where they can see the device that operates the city projection.

The operation instructions for this device are not complicated; Hugo said the most difficult part is still facing the law enforcers.

Because there is currently no path that can bypass the law enforcers. Once the entire administrative level is stepped into, it will attract law enforcers.

Horn needs to manipulate Wen Xishu; the spherical building occupies one-sixth of the city's distance, which is enough for him and Wen Xishu to maintain a relatively large distance.

In order to maintain the effective range of the controller, Horn and Wen Xishu must maintain a distance.

So Horn and Hugo cannot both stay in the rest area.

But the connection range of the controller is large enough to allow Horn and Hugo to follow after Wen Xishu solves various troubles.

And regardless of the area, except for the final administrative center area which has a large open terrain, other areas have enough cover.

Wen Xishu also maintains a distance where he can retreat at any time to rescue Horn.

The three moved cautiously, and the vanguard Wen Xishu soon pushed into the functional area.

In this area, one could see small playgrounds, gymnasiums, and various exquisite—shop stickers.

Yes, stickers.

Luxury goods exhibition areas, top-tier luxury stores, all were stickers here.

It's just that under the lens and post-processing, the outside world couldn't tell.

The life of the "people above people" was fake from beginning to end.

Wen Xishu's footsteps stepped into the street, immediately triggering an alarm sound.

But Wen Xishu was not panicked; he and Horn had already established a silent communication method, using the number of blinks to decide actions.

He signaled Horn to continue the action.

【Alarm, someone has invaded the functional area. Without the permission of the operation manual, entry into the functional area is not allowed. Law enforcement troops dispatched!】

【Current hazard level, Level 4.】

Wen Xishu had done such great evil, and it hadn't reached Level 4, but inside the spherical building, just stepping into an unauthorized area immediately triggered Level 4.

He was also curious about what the law enforcers were like.

Soon Wen Xishu got the answer.

In just thirty seconds, law enforcers had already been forcibly transported from other areas of the spherical building to the functional area with the help of mechanical channels to begin enforcement.

And what appeared before Wen Xishu...

Were not law enforcers in uniforms; they were just like Hugo, or more accurately, just like the "people above people" here, with a scar on their foreheads where their prefrontal cortex had been removed, wearing white uniforms.

But the difference was that everyone's appearance was identical, with exaggerated muscles, fierce looks, no hair, no eyebrows, which made their appearance look both fierce and extremely hideous.

Wen Xishu suddenly realized...

So these people who had lost their prefrontal cortex were not only forced to be production tools for factory assembly lines in the spherical building, but some... were also taken for human experiments.

Twelve law enforcers arrived, and there would be a steady stream of law enforcers appearing behind them.

Guided by the behavioral norms manual, these law enforcers did not fear pain, were purer warriors, and executed orders more precisely.

Horn in the distance signaled Hugo to stop.

Hugo's heart hung in the air. Because there was no way to deal with the law enforcers; it could only be broken through violence.

"I need to manipulate Wen Xishu to record the terrain during the battle... wait a moment, Hugo."

Hugo couldn't see the scene on the other side.

But Horn could.

Under the manipulation of the controller, Wen Xishu had already revealed his Scorpio Slash.

His figure was like a ghost, quickly arriving behind the twelve law enforcers. The law enforcers reacted quickly, turning around rapidly, trying to restrain Wen Xishu.

Twelve black shadows had formed a butterfly-shaped encirclement array. The law enforcers' arms actually had bones piercing through their flesh, presenting a bone-blade state.

These bone blades drew arcs of blades!

Wen Xishu made a response instantly, the Scorpio Blade flipping dark red arcs in his palm.

Wen Xishu met the outside of a law enforcer's bone blade with one foot. Based on the feedback, Wen Xishu could feel... the level of these law enforcers was probably between elite and leader level.

Unimaginable.

But in the controller state, Wen Xishu was still the strongest side.

The first law enforcer to pounce was pierced through the throat bone by the blade, the Scorpio Blade was cleanly pulled out by Wen Xishu, and then he dodged the second bone blade.

The second bone blade grazed past his ear; in the process of dodging, Wen Xishu had a gorgeous ball-juggling movement under his feet.

Horn's operation became more and more delicate; I don't know if it was an illusion... Wen Xishu felt that the connection brought by the controller, that feeling—

It was as if Horn's friendship with him, or rather his trust in him, was no less than his own with Zheng Zai.

Under the flexible dribbling of his feet, the killer soccer ball was suspended in the air, and then Wen Xishu performed a volley kick. An arc precisely head-shotted a law enforcer who was trying to attack from the right.

And at this moment, Wen Xishu also began to shift from technical attack to violent attack. Under Horn's operation, using the recoil of the extreme kick to drive the killer soccer ball, Wen Xishu retreated rapidly, opening the distance from the law enforcers, and then constantly brandished the Scorpio Blade!

The sound of tibia fractures and skull fractures rose one after another. Under the eleven terrifying slashes, these powerful law enforcers were beaten back step by step, their flesh and blood shattered.

Wen Xishu's figure did not stop for a moment.

In the instant the law enforcers were slashed and killed, and in the process of new law enforcers about to arrive on the battlefield, he launched an extreme kick again, jumping high into the air.

In this way, he could overlook the overall situation, and sharing his vision with Horn, he also passed the information of the overlook to Horn.

The distribution of cameras and the distribution of pipelines were all in full view, which was exactly why Horn operated Wen Xishu to jump to a high place.

Figuring out the former was to facilitate Hugo and him to hide safely later.

Figuring out the latter was to cut off the law enforcers' march routes.

"Fortunately, although these law enforcers are very strong, unimaginably strong, and their numbers are astonishing... but Wen Xishu is stronger." Horn said to Hugo.

"We can continue to move forward. The first wave of law enforcers has been solved. There are many more behind, but now it seems that the current intensity cannot stop us."

Hearing Horn say this, Hugo's hanging heart was let go, but he couldn't believe that everything was so smooth.

Wen Xishu could actually be this strong!

"Worthy of being the benefactor in the teacher's words! Really amazing. Oh, and you are also amazing!"

Horn was responsible for manipulating Wen Xishu, and in Hugo's eyes, he was equally amazing.

Horn didn't think he was amazing; it was nothing more than contributing a part of his strength in the way Wen Xishu provided.

In the blink of an eye, Wen Xishu slaughtered twelve enforcers, and in the process, he used his killing football and the Qi blade of the Scorpio Blade to destroy several surveillance cameras.

Wen Xishu even cut off a transport pipeline.

This also made the law enforcers' support not so rapid. But there was a steady stream of law enforcers appearing in front. Inside the spherical building, it was unclear how many such law enforcers were left.

But Horn and Wen Xishu both understood very well—cutting off a few main pipelines—the law enforcers' support would become slower.

In this way, as long as there were no more than a hundred law enforcers appearing at once, Wen Xishu could handle it calmly.

Before long, Wen Xishu passed through the playground.

The terrifying killer soccer ball, under the effect of the extreme kick, directly knocked down the Ferris wheel.

The corpses killed by the Qi blade, under the impact of huge force, happened to fall on the carousel.

In the blink of an eye, the battlefield quickly switched to the commercial area; the expensive luxury goods drawn on those stickers had already been stained with the blood of the "people above people." The gorgeous private dining area was riddled with countless holes and slash marks by the Scorpio Slash and the killer soccer ball.

Wen Xishu was fighting without stopping for a moment, and his speed and power were crushing.

He was also constantly pushing the front line.

Horn and Hugo behind him were also moving forward cautiously, not noticed by any law enforcers. Just like that, the three had traveled more than half the distance in the functional level.

And as more and more transport pipelines were exposed and cut off—the scale of the law enforcers' appearance never posed a threat to Wen Xishu and Horn.

The second half of the functional level—

On a park bench lay the half-body of a law enforcer, the upper body.

The swing swayed the lower body of a law enforcer, and blood was spilled everywhere. Every golf club on the golf course was bent because of hitting the law enforcers' heads.

The battlefield was constantly switching, and besides the killer soccer ball and the Scorpio Slash, Wen Xishu also had many other weapons in his hands.

He was like Jackie Chan in his previous life, constantly fighting with the help of the venue and the weapons provided.

This journey of slaughter made Wen Xishu exceptionally satisfied.

Horn also felt that it was becoming more and more handy; after having the determination to bet everything on Wen Xishu, Horn felt that Wen Xishu seemed to have become stronger in his hands.

Hugo was like witnessing a miracle. As a person born and raised in this world, the strength of ordinary law enforcers was already strong enough.

And inside the spherical building, those law enforcers were even more perverted, both in terms of physical body and execution efficiency, they were stronger than the law enforcers outside.

But now, the corpses of these law enforcers were everywhere, and the combination of Horn and Wen Xishu had created a monster that could rely on violence to kill to the end!

The blue sun might rise today!

Hugo really thought so in his heart; he truly felt this possibility.

But Horn felt more and more that something was wrong.

"You said the law enforcers outside wouldn't come in so easily because the distance is far?"

Hugo nodded:

"Yes, Mr. Horn. They aren't that fast! The Level 4 alarm will make them arrive one after another, but the strength of the law enforcers outside won't be higher than the law enforcers inside."

"And on the path, it also takes them a long time to arrive; our current advancement speed is completely in time!"

"As long as the blue sun rises, everything can end!"

Hugo was very excited.

Horn also nodded; he also hoped that everything would go smoothly and hoped that he was overthinking.

【Alarm, someone has invaded the administrative level. Without the permission of the operation manual, entry into the administrative level is not allowed. Law enforcement troops dispatched!】

【Current hazard level, Level 5.】

The highest level of threat appeared, stemming from Wen Xishu finally arriving at the administrative level.

Compared to the Level 4 situation, the Level 5 administrative level area would have more law enforcers.

And unlike the functional level, there were fewer fancy buildings here, and what appeared in front of Wen Xishu and Horn was an open terrain.

This also meant that Wen Xishu would have a tough battle to fight.

When Wen Xishu arrived at the open terrain, more than a hundred law enforcers were already guarding the only way through.

When Horn saw this scene, he couldn't help but worry whether he and Wen Xishu could defeat these strong enemies.

Relying on the vision change brought by blinking, Wen Xishu issued the order to charge and kill.

Horn had to say that Wen Xishu's inner murderous nature was very heavy. But now it had to be like this!

If the rise of the blue sun had slaughter as the final obstacle, then Wen Xishu was enough to sweep away all obstacles!

Wen Xishu's figure jumped high into the air, intending to jump directly to the center of all the law enforcers and use the Qi blade to open a gap.

Horn's combat strategy was correct.

But at this moment, both Horn and Wen Xishu were startled by a roar from outside the field.

"Horn! Is it you! I knew you had a problem! You actually tried to destroy the captain's rule!"

It was very quiet inside the spherical building, and the sound of the industrial area could hardly reach the functional level and the administrative level. And this roar, in this quiet environment...

Was like a thunderclap.

Hugo was stunned.

The law enforcers here had no wisdom, so naturally, they couldn't speak.

Being able to speak meant the enemy came from the outside.

How could the law enforcers from the outside arrive so quickly?

In Hugo's cognition, the law enforcers outside would only be weaker than the law enforcers inside, but he suddenly saw the fear on Horn's face.

Horn was indeed feeling fear.

He recognized that voice.

That was Lei Nuo.

He was the third-ranked ability user of the entire Ark. But Lei Nuo's most powerful point was not his combat ability, but that Lei Nuo himself was not bad in terms of brains.

How could he be here? How could he support so quickly?

"We don't have much time. We must quickly operate Wen Xishu to complete the projection." Horn's hand speed accelerated.

Wen Xishu landed and began the slaughter of the law enforcers.

This was a race against time; Horn's hand speed was faster than ever, and Wen Xishu's movements, following Horn's operation, became more and more fluid and tricky, causing law enforcers to be killed one after another.

Horn felt fear in his heart toward Lei Nuo... or rather, toward those few ability users on the Ark, especially the top three.

The two ability users ranked first and second could even face the Sinister Sea Behemoth besieging the Ark, but later, under the captain's order, they no longer made a move.

As for Lei Nuo, who was third, it stemmed from the particularity of his ability.

Horn knew he had to be fast.

His fingers were fast to the point of breaking the limit, and Wen Xishu himself felt amazed.

But even so, Horn was still slow.

Antoine and Nikolai, like teleportation—were pushed to the high altitude by a huge force, ignoring gravity, and finally landed on the open land of the administrative level.

Wen Xishu's enemies now, besides these law enforcers, were two ability users from the Ark.

Antoine, Nikolai.

Wen Xishu didn't expect that these two could descend directly onto the battlefield.

If the opponent possessed this speed, then it was simply not something he could rival.

Horn guessed that the sudden appearance of these two might be related to Lei Nuo.

Horn didn't know Lei Nuo's ability either, but it was said that neither the first nor the second could do anything to Lei Nuo, because they couldn't touch Lei Nuo.

Lei Nuo's ability didn't have much offensiveness, but it could make him stand in an invincible position.

The next moment—

The third-ranked ability user of the Ark, Lei Nuo, descended onto the battlefield.

Lei Nuo's figure, as if attracted by a huge magnetic pole, instantly appeared beside Antoine.

Wen Xishu frowned.

"You are not Horn."

Lei Nuo looked at Wen Xishu, convinced that he didn't know this person.

Wen Xishu also looked at Lei Nuo; he found that Lei Nuo's process of arriving at the battlefield didn't look like he jumped with foot power, but more like he was attracted by the guy beside him.

At this time, the behavioral norms manual began to issue orders, requiring Lei Nuo to refuse these people from entering the administrative level.

Lei Nuo's brain was not simple at all:

"You want to invade the administrative level; you are planning to promote something, right?"

Wen Xishu didn't expect that there would be such a troublesome character in this city.

He and Horn had no way out; once here, they could only fight to the death with the opponent.

Lei Nuo's figure retreated.

"No matter who you are, as long as I am here, you cannot enter the administrative level."

Wen Xishu didn't trade trash talk with the opponent.

Under Horn's operation, Wen Xishu drove the extreme kick, approaching Lei Nuo with incredible speed.

But facing the surprise attack from Wen Xishu, Lei Nuo appeared indifferent.

Nikolai and Antoine, as Lei Nuo's subordinates, stood further forward than Lei Nuo; facing Wen Xishu's sprint assassination, the two didn't worry at all.

Even the two didn't make any defensive moves.

Wen Xishu's speed was very fast; Antoine had to admit that this was an opponent that had to be handled carefully.

But in this world, no one could hurt Lei Nuo.

Wen Xishu suddenly discovered...

As Lei Nuo's lips moved slightly, he was clearly sprinting and stabbing, but the distance from Lei Nuo was getting further and further.

One hundred meters.

Wen Xishu's sprint ended, but he finally stopped steadily one hundred meters away from Lei Nuo. This suddenly started explosive sprint not only failed to close the distance, but instead opened the distance from Lei Nuo.

Next, Lei Nuo's lips twitched again.

Wen Xishu heard clearly.

The opponent was speaking; to be precise, the opponent was issuing an order.

"Distance, three hundred meters."

Without any feeling, Wen Xishu only felt that the scene in his eyes was constantly moving forward. That was because his body was constantly retreating.

Slaughter Sequence 56: Distance of Separation and Union.

This was Lei Nuo's ability. If it were to kill Wen Xishu, Lei Nuo didn't have much confidence, but the behavioral norms manual only required not letting the enemy invade a certain area.

Then for Lei Nuo, this task was really too easy to complete.

Because his ability was to change the distance between himself and a target.

"No matter who you are, the place where I stand is already a forbidden area you cannot enter."

Horn didn't expect that Lei Nuo's ability would be so restrictive to their action this time.

The surrounding scene began to move forward again. Wen Xishu didn't expect that the opponent's ability range was so huge...

His body would retreat again.

"Distance, one thousand meters."
