Chapter 406

On the battlefield, 【Dai Sifa】 continued to execute its previous kill order; it raised the rotating laser machine gun on its left arm once more, aiming at the Victory Feiyan 1 hovering in the air.

Emi: "This is..."

Xitiao Na: "It's going to attack us!"

Xitiao Na's pupils contracted sharply; she instinctively sensed the crisis, yet her fingers could only hover above the control panel, those familiar buttons suddenly becoming strange and distant.

The alarm sounded sharp and piercing, but her thoughts were like a muddied water surface, unable to gather together no matter what.

"Boom!" 【Dai Sifa】 hit the wing of the Victory Feiyan 1, which spiraled down while spewing black smoke, slamming squarely into the building behind Qi Ming.

Accompanied by the whistling wind, the debris generated by the collision plummeted straight down toward Qi Ming.

Qi Ming's muscles tensed instantly; his mind went blank, but his body reacted a step ahead, his right leg kicking hard against the ground as he sprang back half a meter.

"That was close, almost got crushed. What exactly is the situation right now?" Qi Ming looked around.

He looked at the crowd fleeing not far away, thinking to himself that since everyone else was running, he might as well run along with them.

But he had only taken a few steps when a strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart.

A feeling that he couldn't just leave like this, couldn't leave them behind.

This strange feeling made him stop in his tracks, and he looked back at the battlefield.

【Dai Sifa】 raised its left rotating laser machine gun again, aiming at the Victory Feiyan 1 embedded in the outer wall of the building, intending to finish them off.

"Oh no, Member Xitiao Na, Member Emi, hurry and escape!" Agamus hurriedly called out to the two inside.

Xitiao Na: "Is it calling us? But we can't move right now!"

She had already tried every button she could press and every control lever she could pull in the vicinity, but there was no reaction at all; the operating system was completely offline.

The ejection system was jammed, the cockpit wouldn't open, and it seemed they could only wait for death.

"Doesn't look good." The amnesiac Qi Ming walked forward two steps unconsciously, his left hand instinctively resting on the 'Any Key' button on his right hand; this movement was as practiced as if it had been repeated hundreds of times.

"Huh, what's this?" The raised core immediately caught Qi Ming's attention; he paused slightly and looked at the screen.

Star-Gifted: 6.

Manufacturing: 31/40.

"What does this mean? Is it asking me to do this?" Driven by a strong instinct, Qi Ming slammed his hand down on the dial.

Random mode, triggered.

"Shoo!" At the same moment, the fully charged 【Dai Sifa】 fired again at the Victory Feiyan 1 embedded in the building's wall; a crimson, lightning-shaped destructive beam tore through the sky, aimed straight at the Victory Feiyan 1 deep in the building.

Agamus: "It's over!"

Hikari: "That is!"

A silver-white stream of light shot into the sky, blocking the space between 【Dai Sifa】 and the Victory Feiyan 1, intercepting 【Dai Sifa】's destructive beam.

After the light dissipated, a giant with a red and silver body and a ring of medals on its shoulders appeared.

"A giant..." Emi stared blankly, looking at the giant that had saved her.

Hikari: "Zoffy! Is that Qi Ming!"

"Wow, so big and so tall!" Qi Ming, inside Zoffy, looked at the perspective after transforming, exclaiming in wonder, yet not in terror.

Seeing the enemy that had blocked him appear, the pincer-shaped mechanical hand on 【Dai Sifa】's right arm lunged out like a predatory scorpion, intending to strangle Zoffy.

Driven by instinct, Qi Ming dodged to the side, taking the opportunity to deliver a flying kick to 【Dai Sifa】's shoulder, making it stagger backward.

This series of actions stunned Agamus in the base: "Could it be that Qi Ming hasn't lost his memory?"

Hikari looked at Zoffy on the screen, who was staring at his own hands, seemingly shocked that he had just been able to perform that sequence of moves, and said: "He should also be affected; that was just an instinctive conditioned reflex."

Agamus: "Instinct?"

Hikari nodded.

He said that before Agamus arrived, such an incident had occurred. Because of the heaven-defying operations of two bratty kids, the apartment monster Stone King and the Cactus Super Beast had merged together, wreaking havoc on the city.

At that time, Qi Ming was in the weak phase after transforming into Grieza, his mind muddled, and after transforming into Cosmos, he had passed out while fighting.

Just when everyone thought it was over, Cosmos suddenly regained the ability to act and continued to fight, using an even more cruel and violent posture to hammer the two monsters to death.

But afterward, Qi Ming had absolutely no memory of this.

Agamus widened his eyes: "You mean... he can still fight after losing consciousness?"

This is simply a superman!

On the battlefield, Zoffy was seen charging forward in a dash, his right fist blasting out like a cannonball, accurately smashing into the machine gun barrel!

A harsh sound of twisting metal rang out, the barrel was smashed bent, and flames sprayed out from the cracks.

【Dai Sifa】 swung the giant pincer claw on its retracted right arm at Zoffy; Qi Ming dodged to the side, the claw grazing his shoulder and kicking up a trail of sparks.

He backhanded the mechanical arm, using the strength of his waist and abdomen to heave the steel giant up and smash it heavily into the ground.

Although Qi Ming still couldn't figure out the situation, things seemed to be improving?

When 【Dai Sifa】 attacked, he would dodge according to his body's instinctive danger warning, and then reflexively launch a round of counterattacks.

Follow the feeling, let it lead me.

【Dai Sifa】 attacked again; Qi Ming seized the momentum to grab its mechanical arm, delivering a fierce shoulder throw that smashed it heavily into a high-rise building.

The entire building collapsed with a roar, smoke and dust shooting into the sky.

Seeing this, Agamus exclaimed: "Good, this way we can win!"

The next moment, 【Dai Sifa】 was seen standing up, a cannon muzzle appearing on its chest aimed at Zoffy, beginning to charge energy.

This was 【Dai Sifa】's trump card—the Neo-Maximus Cannon!

Hikari realized something was wrong: "Such powerful energy!"

Data indicated that once this cannon was fired, the entire city would be destroyed, with nothing left!

Qi Ming, on the battlefield, felt his heart skip a beat upon seeing the charging muzzle; every organ in his body was sending him warnings, urging him to run away immediately.

Should I dodge this strike too?

But...

Qi Ming turned around, looking at the Victory Feiyan 1 stuck in the outer wall of the building behind him, meeting Emi's eyes in the cockpit.

Another, stronger feeling appeared in his heart, overriding the instinct to dodge and flee in the face of immense danger.

【Dai Sifa】's chest glowed brilliantly, and a high-energy crimson beam, like a solar storm, shot out toward Zoffy.

Neo-Maximus Cannon!

At the same time, Zoffy raised his right hand, firing a blue-white ultra-high-heat beam.

M87 Beam!

The crimson and blue-white beams collided fiercely in the air, deadlocked, the terrifying energy ripples dissipating, causing the glass of buildings within a kilometer radius to shatter simultaneously!

Beam struggle!

"I absolutely cannot lose!" Qi Ming shouted, Zoffy sinking his waist and adding strength, the blue-white M87 beam becoming even more brilliant, crushing the Neo-Maximus Cannon and pushing it back.

The moment the Neo-Maximus Cannon was completely crushed, the M87 beam pierced through 【Dai Sifa】.

The latter's body stiffened, then suddenly exploded, turning into ashes.

In the TPC Victory Team command room, Hikari watched this scene, lost in thought.

"Did the will to protect a comrade override the fear of death? Instead of choosing to flee, he released the beam head-on and finished off the enemy..."
