Chapter 57 Giant Radiation Centipede

"Heart Amplification Wristband," Qian Long said, "This is a piece of equipment I got last year. It can bring a certain mental amplification effect to the wearer. Take it."

"It must be very expensive?"

"Uh... it's okay..."

"Just look at his reluctant face and you'll know," Benderui revealed on the side, "When he got this thing, he put in a lot of effort and ended up spending fifty purple crystals. This kind of equipment that can directly enhance the user's abilities in a certain aspect is very rare."

"It's too expensive, I can't..."

Liwei was interrupted by Qian Long halfway through his words. He said, "Don't say that. No matter how expensive, is my life not valuable? I am not an ungrateful person. To receive help, you must pay a price. This is my principle. Take it, consider it as me repaying you with my life, or consider it as me profiting."

"Well, then I won't be polite."

After fastening the wristband, Liwei immediately felt his head become somewhat cool, like smelling peppermint, but not as stimulating, more gentle.

It was clear that it was a good thing as soon as he put it on.

"Thank you."

"Don't thank me too much." After giving away the wristband, Qian Long also became much more open-minded. "Let's set off."

Liwei nodded, "Okay, then we'll leave first. The guild building may not be safe either. When Cai Yutong and I set off, we were attacked by some semi-mechanical monsters. You guys should be careful."

Benderui smiled and said, "If Qian Long is injured, I'm still here. Don't worry."

...

Liwei and Cai Yutong continued to rush towards the south of the guild building, where the explosion sound first came from, the place where Yasha's convoy was attacked.

In fact, Liwei was a bit regretful. Benderui and Qian Long were very strong, both of them were experts who had unlocked their genetic chains, and their help in battle was significant. Benderui's arrows and Qian Long's psychic powers would be difficult for Liwei to handle alone.

If the two of them could travel together, then Liwei would be more able to plan their actions and seize more resources.

But there was no way. Qian Long was severely injured, and Benderui, as a good friend, was worried and wanted to accompany him. What else could Liwei say?

Being able to get the Hellfire Energy Storage Crystal and the Heart Amplification Wristband was indeed an unexpected surprise.

The journey southward was not smooth. There were always scattered enemies around.

Like some individual semi-mechanical infantry, they were relatively easy to deal with. However, on this journey, Liwei and Cai Yutong encountered not only human-like creatures that had been partially mechanized.

For example, the biggest trouble they encountered was a huge, four to five meters long, very strong giant semi-mechanical centipede.

This monster caused quite a bit of trouble for Liwei and Cai Yutong. According to Cai Yutong, this was a giant radiation centipede. A normal individual had very strong combat power. To kill it, it would take at least two to three experts who had unlocked their genetic chains to team up and hunt it down.

If a giant radiation centipede was here, Liwei and Cai Yutong would probably not even have a chance to run.

Unfortunately, this creature that had undergone semi-mechanical modification was obviously a failure.

Although it was incredibly strong and its attacks were very powerful, if one were hit by the sharp, blade-like limbs on its sides, whether it was Liwei or Cai Yutong, they would undoubtedly be cut directly.

Moreover, it was very resilient. Liwei's piercing bullets had little effect on this huge creature. However, these shortcomings could not hide its fatal flaw.

Its movements were too clumsy, slow, and it only charged straight ahead. The mechanical structure on its body made it very inconvenient for it to twist its body.

As a result, this gave Liwei and Cai Yutong the opportunity to defeat this monster.

Cai Yutong used various engraved bullets to distract it from a distance, while Liwei swam around the monster, seizing the opportunity to use the short sword in his hand to launch attacks, using skills like Steel-Cutting Flash and even Ghost Slash to inflict damage.

Their attack methods could only cause limited damage to this giant semi-mechanical radiation centipede.

Liwei's Ghost Slash was powerful, but in the current situation, he couldn't afford to have too many opportunities to build up power. Even if the centipede's movements were slow, they were not slow enough for Liwei to gather power for two or three seconds to react.

However, even an incomplete Ghost Slash, surpassed the power of any other skill he mastered. Neither the Steel-Cutting Flash nor the full-force strike of the Demon Claw could match the power of the Ghost Slash.

However, even so, a Ghost Slash from Liwei would only leave a mark on the monster's body, and the damage was there but not significant.

With Liwei's current ability, if he slashed with Ghost Slash five or six times in a row, he would feel very strained.

Cai Yutong was almost the same. Occasionally, she would take out her hand cannon and fire a shot. When she attacked from a distance, she was much more relaxed than Liwei and could even let the hand cannon accumulate energy before firing, making its power even stronger than Liwei's Ghost Slash, but it was still like a drop in the bucket.

The two of them fought fiercely for two or three minutes, exhausting themselves, but they still couldn't kill the monster.

Although it was also covered in wounds, it was still very vigorous, rampaging on the street, chasing after Liwei and Cai Yutong everywhere.

Liwei realized that they couldn't go on like this. He even had the idea of using the Hellfire Energy Storage Crystal that Benderui gave him. That thing was made by a strong person who had unlocked their genetic chain. If used, it could deliver a powerful blow that surpassed the limit level, and there was a chance to directly kill this monster.

However, after thinking about it, he still hesitated a bit.

The situation had not reached such a crisis yet.

Calculating his physical strength, which had already reached the alert line, Liwei shouted to Cai Yutong, "Find a way to delay it for me!"

Cai Yutong nodded in the distance, took out her hand cannon, and the energy beam directly hit the head of the semi-mechanical centipede monster, making its already disfigured head even more miserable.

The heavily hit giant centipede roared, and its huge body rushed towards Cai Yutong, temporarily ignoring Liwei beside it.

Taking a deep breath, demon energy surged crazily from his left hand, Liwei began to gather power.

He planned to unleash a fully-powered Ghost Slash. At the same time, the white aura surrounding his short sword transformed into a purple-blue color due to the rising demon energy.
