Chapter 148 Mechanical Warrior

Bai Ye and Jin Sha sprinted forward.

Those behind them were temporarily shaken off, and the enemies ahead were imminent.

Alex's allegiance…

It was hard to say who it truly belonged to!

Bai Ye, having just caught up, wasn't entirely sure, but Jin Sha, who had been following all along, knew perfectly well. Two-thirds of the way across the Red Gate Bridge, Alex had already changed hands three times.

While it might sound disrespectful to Alex, the notorious drug lord, his role was akin to an item. In fact, if possible, everyone would have preferred Alex to be an item, as carrying him was often a burden, and items were easier to smuggle out of the city.

As for the current situation…

The first group was a beast tamer, hailing from the same world as Jin Sha. Though they didn't know each other, Jin Sha was certain the opponent was a master. Their summoned beasts, while not individually fearsome in appearance, possessed comprehensive attributes and were exceptionally well-trained, and they were currently engaged in a fierce struggle.

The second group had commandeered a speedboat to snatch Alex and then ascended the bridge. Their strength wasn't particularly high; their success was due to surprise. Others hadn't anticipated someone smuggling Alex via water, but they had.

However, with limited strength, these individuals escorted Alex for about five hundred meters before being annihilated, and Alex was, naturally, lost again.

The last group consisted of three individuals, presumably from a future technology world.

Future technology worlds, much like the immortal cultivation and psionic worlds, enjoyed a significant advantage upon entering the world battlefield.

This was because, even in very peaceful future technology worlds, their chosen individuals possessed considerable combat prowess due to their technological prowess upon entering the world battlefield.

The three who had seized Alex seemed to hail from a mechanically-oriented future technology world, all of them equipped with mechanical prosthetics.

Currently, they formed a triangular formation, fending off surrounding attacks while escorting Alex forward with considerable ferocity. For the moment, the surrounding combatants were unable to subdue them.

Bai Ye looked at Jin Sha and said, "It seems I need to show some real skill."

Jin Sha shrugged. "The most powerful thing I have to offer right now is the plasma cannon."

"That's enough!" Bai Ye declared. "You provide covering fire for me, and I'll handle the rest!"

Jin Sha nodded. "Alright!"

"Then…" Bai Ye stopped, "Let's begin!"

Without further ado, Jin Sha raised the plasma cannon and aimed forward!

*Hummm!*

The sound of energy accumulation quickly followed, and an energy ball materialized on the plasma cannon, then…

*BOOM!*

The energy ball was fired forward, transforming into a beam of energy that blasted towards their objective.

Hearing the sudden commotion, the people ahead quickly scattered. The beam then grazed the crowd and struck the ground.

*Rumble!*

The plasma cannon blast hit the ground, exploding with a deafening roar. The surrounding vehicles were crushed by an invisible force, instantly reduced to mangled scrap metal!

And at this very moment…

Bai Ye crouched on the ground, adopting a running stance, and then…

*Crack!*

With Bai Ye's exertion, the ground split into a vast network of cracks. Immediately after, Bai Ye surged forward.

His speed attribute exceeding a hundred instantly erupted. This time, Bai Ye held nothing back, unleashing his full power!

In that instant, Jin Sha couldn't even discern how Bai Ye had dashed out. She only felt a gust of wind sweep past her, and Bai Ye was already ten meters ahead!

Simultaneously…

"Phoenix Flame!"

As he ran, Bai Ye unleashed his Phoenix ability. Crimson flames erupted from Bai Ye's body, burning fiercely and engulfing him, making him appear like a colossal ball of fire.

"Get out of the way!"

Bai Ye leaped, soaring over a car, only to find two people standing behind it.

The moment Bai Ye landed, he directly swung his arm forward.

*Bang, bang!*

Before the two individuals could react, they were sent flying by Bai Ye's single arm swing. One of them crashed into the bridge railing, snapping a section of it before tumbling over the edge and falling into the river.

Bai Ye didn't pause. The two individuals were mere obstacles to him, so he continued without slowing, heading directly for Alex.

The three chosen ones from the future technology world looked at Bai Ye. The leader was a woman with sharp eyes. The moment she saw Bai Ye, she knew a major problem had arrived.

"Zak!" the leader woman commanded decisively. "Zak, go stop him!"

The man beside her nodded, then punched his fists together and halted, waiting for Bai Ye to approach.

Bai Ye also looked up at this moment, their gazes meeting.

This was an exceptionally strong man, incredibly so. Standing at nearly two meters twenty, he lacked visible muscles but was immensely powerful. His build seemed to expand horizontally, making a normal-sized adult male appear like a child next to him – a giant and a child.

Such a physique naturally gave an impression of clumsiness.

However, Zak was not clumsy; on the contrary, his speed was astonishingly fast!

This was because…

His lower body was mechanical!

Zak's lower half was entirely composed of machinery: metal leg braces, exposed metal cables, and wires representing his leg nerves, all shimmering with liquid light, exuding a cyberpunk aesthetic.

His mechanical lower body was capable of supporting Zak's massive frame, granting him terrifying strength without sacrificing speed!

Momentarily…

Bai Ye reached Zak, who grinned savagely and took a step forward, throwing a punch!

Bai Ye made no attempt to retreat, raising his own fist!

Fist met fist!

*Bang!*

Their fists collided with a heavy thud!

Zak's face contorted in shock.

The opponent hadn't been sent flying! The power from that punch was on par with his own, evenly matched!

Zak was immensely confident in his strength; he had yet to encounter anyone who could go toe-to-toe with him in a contest of sheer power!

And at this very moment…

"Evenly matched!" Bai Ye looked at Zak and grinned suddenly. "You must be dreaming?"

The moment Bai Ye spoke, the muscles in his arm suddenly bulged, instantly doubling in size!
