Chapter 760: Pulled It Off (2/2, Please Subscribe)
At this very moment, the scene of Su Bairong being cut clean in two was captured by the unmanned drone army in the far distance, using their highest-magnification cameras, and broadcast live to the United Front headquarters!
Everyone in the United Front headquarters stared dumbly at the image on the screen, faces full of stunned, shocked expressions.
At the general meeting, the scene was so quiet that not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
Everyone held their breath, staring blankly at the image on the screen, motionless like wooden figures.
An immortal... is dead?
The cheat they had guarded against with every measure in the United Front, the one they had once believed would destroy the world, was just taken out like that?
United Front President Jiang Wanchun was the first to come back to his senses.
He couldn't help but gasp sharply on the spot, his whole body trembling.
"Hiss—"
He had to admit, he was scared!
Fang Yue's terrifying combat power made him feel as if he were sitting on a bed of needles!
Just thinking that the existence who could cut down a cheat with a single blade had once been so close to him, mixed in with the crowd beneath that mobilization podium, listening to his commands, Jiang Wanchun felt a deep unease from the bottom of his heart; looking back, he was so frightened in hindsight that his whole body trembled, his hair standing on end.
The feeling was like an uncontrollable beast lurking right beside him!
"This boy must either be used by us, or be completely eliminated like the traitorous cheat!"
Having held a high position for long, after a few breaths, Jiang Wanchun quickly calmed himself down.
Suppressing his thoughts, he did not rush to deal with the matter.
The top priority was to confirm whether the cheat Su Bairong was truly dead, and to handle all the various aftermath.
As for how to deal with Fang Yue, that was a matter requiring serious discussion, not something that could be decided in a moment.
"What do you all think?"
After thinking for a moment, the President looked at the other nine Presidents.
They had also come back to their senses by now.
The Second President was still somewhat dazed, muttering: "... So strong!"
"Strong? That's a massive understatement! That's absurdly strong! That was a cheat! A cheat we schemed against and set up all kinds of defenses for, and in the end, that Fang Yue cut her down with a single blade!"
"No! We can't look at it that way! Fang Yue's strength, we've all seen with our own eyes, but at the same time, we must understand one thing: the cheat Su Bairong had not yet raised her strength to its peak!"
"That's right, every cheat is an immortal! A Xian-level powerhouse! They were only sleeping when we set restrictions on them; after awakening, they need a certain amount of time to recover their strength from zero.
Although the speed of strength recovery differs depending on each person's individual physique and strength, taking Su Bairong as an example, her recovery speed is still absurdly fast.
Therefore, I propose increasing the restrictions on the cheats, raising the dosage of the agent, and suppressing the cheats' strength recovery speed to the greatest extent possible, leaving enough margin for error for ourselves."
"Artificial intelligence has already built a data model for Su Bairong; next time we will surely be able to more accurately grasp the cheat's strength recovery speed and all related data, and establish more complete countermeasures..."
All ten people present were big shots standing at the peak of power within the United Front.
After getting through the initial panic, they quickly calmed down and began discussing more practical responses, as well as various projects to carry out next, using existing data as a model for deeper optimization.
They must ensure that when the next cheat rebelled, they would not end up in a flustered situation like this time; the situation must be kept in their own hands!
While the ten Presidents of the United Front were setting the task objectives for the next phase.
The members of the Third Team who had risked their lives had only just now seen the broadcast footage from the drones.
"The cheat... is dead?"
"The mission... is complete?"
"We haven't done anything yet..."
Everyone stared blankly at the projected screen, their minds completely blank.
They had all embraced a resolve to die, determined to give their all for the United Front, and even if it meant a desperate fight, to drag the cheat down with them.
Yet the result now was... they hadn't even made a move, and that Fang Yue, who had been labeled a traitor, had already killed the cheat!
And it was a one-hit kill, cut clean in two!
This is fucking like an immortal descended from the heavens!
Everyone exchanged glances, completely dumbfounded.
What kind of situation is this...
The First Team Captain couldn't help but scratch his head, feeling embarrassed by his own foolish thoughts and actions from before.
This Fang Yue is terrifyingly strong!
"Minister Jiang, when you get promoted and rich in the future, don't forget the brothers who shared life and death with you today!"
The Second Team Captain's eyes rolled, and he immediately started flattering.
At this moment, even a blind man could see that Fang Yue could not possibly be a traitor, but was on the United Front's side.
And Fang Yue, as a member of the Third Team, had rendered such a meritorious service, and was himself so outstanding, so the Third Team's Captain, Minister Jiang, was naturally going to be promoted and get rich.
If they didn't hurry up and curry favor, they might not even have a chance to meet him in the future.
The First Team Captain also shivered at this moment, suddenly reacting.
"Jiang... little Jiang, you kid have been clever since you were small; from the very first day you entered the United Front, I knew you would become a great talent in the future! Let me tell you..."
Listening to the two colleagues' praise, Minister Jiang was caught between tears and laughter, but in his heart he was still secretly quite pleased.
After all, he had been ostracized by those two colleagues before, and now in the blink of an eye, he had suddenly turned things around and become the master.
While feeling sweet in his heart, Minister Jiang was also a little nervous inside.
This Fang Yue, he wondered whether he still recognized him as his Captain...
Beside him, Qiu Dugu quietly clenched his fist.
"Before I knew it, the gap between you and me has actually become this huge!"
All along, Qiu Dugu had defined himself as Fang Yue's senior, guiding Fang Yue in every way.
Now watching Fang Yue completely surpass himself, his mood was inevitably a little complicated, but more than that, it was a feeling of relief.
While everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, they didn't notice that on the projection screen, where Su Bairong lay on the ground, the upper half of his body—at the cut—was writhing, sprouting dense little tendrils. Then Fang Yue approached and drove a blade straight through his skull, pinning him to the spot, unable to move.
……
On the deserted island.
Fang Yue stared with a strange expression at the cheater below, whose head had been pierced by the Flowing Cloud Blade.
He had made many preparations for this battle, and had even considered the possibility that he might die at Su Bairong's hands.
After all, the one he had to face was an immortal!
Therefore, the instant he saw the man in the flesh, Fang Yue unleashed his full power. Ferocious force drove the blade straight toward Su Bairong.
Fang Yue had imagined that this strike might see his blade shattered and himself sent flying, or be caught bare-handed with absolute certainty.
He never in his wildest dreams expected the result to be a clean cut in two! Su Bairong, taken out in one stroke!
This is an immortal? This is the cheater?
For a moment, Fang Yue's feelings were complicated.
【I know exactly what you're feeling!】
【Let me! Let me do it!】
【What cheater? It's only been a few days—how'd he get this weak?】
【Made little Xiao Zhi Zhi all anxious and fidgety, and for what? This? Just this?】
