After Winning The Esports Championship I’m Going To Pilot A Mecha: Chapter 133
- Tunnel
Axiu struck with swift and fierce efficiency, taking a life with just a glance. What stood out most was his calm expression throughout, as if he were merely plucking a flower in a casual manner.
Members of the Netherworld Organization’s Reincarnation and Earth Womb Squads were all intimidated by his presence.
Is this Tian Shu?
They began to doubt their own eyes. Tian Shu had a formidable reputation within the Netherworld Organization. Although they weren’t on the same team, as a top ace pilot for the organization, Tian Shu was definitely among the elite. How could he have acquired such terrifying skills in just a few short months?
Before they could react, Axiu was already closing in again. His left hand reached out, aiming straight for the second person’s face.
The person was startled, instinctively raising their hand to block while simultaneously lifting their leg to kick towards “Ji Mingzhu”. Their adaptability and reaction speed were perfect, clearly showing they were a well-trained elite.
Yet Axiu seemed to have anticipated this in advance. Midway through reaching, his hand turned downward, gripping the incoming kick. With a slight lift at the knee, it seemed effortless, yet the air filled with the crisp sound of a shin bone breaking.
“Ahh—”
Two consecutive team members were dealt with swiftly, one dead and one injured. This scene made the Netherworld Organization personnel completely on guard. One person in the rear decisively drew their gun. The dark muzzle barely exposed in the air, Axiu seemed to possess precognitive abilities as he subtly tilted his head.
Bang!
The gunshot rang out. The bullet grazed by as Axiu simultaneously controlled Ji Mingzhu’s body to lunge forward abruptly, deftly seizing the gun-wielding person’s wrist with precise finesse. With a twist of his hand, in an instant, he had control over the person’s hand.
In the face of powerful artificial intelligence, everything in martial combat can be presented in a data-driven form: martial arts, human anatomy, human structure, joint mechanics… For ordinary people, combat relies more on muscle memory and accumulated experience, instinctive reactions. But for Axiu, these are all traceable data in his eyes. How to respond, how many muscle groups to mobilize, at what angle to attack, how to incapacitate the enemy in the shortest time possible—all these were like mathematical answers already written on paper, crystal clear.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Axiu twisted the arm of the gunman and fired four shots consecutively behind him. The four gunshots rang out almost simultaneously, leaving bloody holes in the foreheads of the four Netherworld Organization members behind him, who all collapsed at once.
The gunman whose arm was twisted turned back in astonishment, mouth agape, unable to believe what he had done. The next moment, darkness engulfed his vision as Axiu swiftly knocked him unconscious with an elbow strike.
Everything happened so quickly that it wasn’t until several people fell to the ground simultaneously that others on the street realized a battle had taken place. Countless gazes converged from all directions.
In the Nightless City, such incidents were not uncommon. Most people looked on indifferently, taking a few steps back to avoid unnecessary trouble while curiously watching the lone youth standing in the center.
Even from the perspective of bystanders, it was evident that this youth’s martial skills were exceptional, approaching the level of artistry. Each strike, each step and movement was swift and decisive, devoid of any hesitation, like a captivating performance filled with precise and brutal aesthetics.
Whoosh…
Just as Axiu lowered his hand, a subtle sound of breaking air reached his ears. He swiftly grabbed the collar of the unconscious man in front of him and used him as a shield.
A tranquilizer dart pinned the Netherworld Organization member.
Axiu coolly raised his eyelids, his gaze piercing through the distance, towards a tall building in the distance.
On top of the high-rise, the sniper through his scope met Axiu’s gaze and couldn’t help but shudder.
This person… is too terrifying.
“Other teams, take note.”
The sniper pressed his earpiece, his mouth dry as he spoke, “Target Tian Shu has eliminated members of Team Three. Our mission here has failed. Note that Tian Shu’s combat capabilities exceed what’s in the intel. We need to adjust our plans and request reinforcements…”
“Where is the target now?”
Through the scope, the sniper looked towards where Ji Mingzhu had been, but found that the young man had vanished from his sight. Only several members of the Netherworld Organization lay on the ground, their fates uncertain, while Ji Mingzhu himself had disappeared without a trace.
…
“Bang!”
Yao Guang and Bai Sha raced swiftly through the underground passage. Faintly behind them echoed gunshots and footsteps, indicating that members of the Netherworld Organization were still in hot pursuit.
Yao Guang was, after all, just a hacker, not accustomed to physical exertion, having barely exercised. His physical fitness was far inferior to the professionally trained members of the Netherworld Organization. By now, he was panting heavily, his white hair damp and clinging, pushing forward gritting his teeth.
“Yao, Yao Guang…”
Bai Sha’s face was pale. A bullet had already struck her shoulder, blood flowing profusely, staining almost half of her body red.
“Yao Guang, you go on ahead…”
Fear was evident on Bai Sha’s face. She was just an ordinary person, accustomed to a life of comfort for the past twenty years, never having encountered such a situation before. Despite her fear, she forced herself to speak, “I can’t move anymore, don’t worry about me…”
Yao Guang clenched his lips, saying nothing, as he pulled out his light brain to search for the shortest route. “Stop talking for now. You need to get to the hospital.”
After so many days together, Bai Sha had become a friend to Yao Guang. Due to the matter involving Tian Quan, Yao Guang could not bear the thought of losing a friend before his eyes. He remained composed, supporting Bai Sha’s shoulder and urging her forward.
The map of the underground passages in Jiusheng City displayed on the light brain. Fortunately, the underground routes were intricate and complex. The two hadn’t been immediately caught up by the Netherworld Organization, but it was only a matter of time if they continued like this.
“I really… can’t go any further.”
Bai Sha had lost a lot of blood, her gaze becoming unfocused. She bit her lip, trying hard to keep her eyes open, wanting to see Yao Guang’s face clearly.
“Go okay, Yao Guang, go…”
Yao Guang looked at Bai Sha’s pale face, devoid of color from blood loss, unable to speak.
Should he leave? If he abandoned Bai Sha and left, perhaps he could escape the pursuit of the Netherworld Organization and survive.
However, just like when he parted ways with Tian Quan back then, would things turn out differently if he hadn’t chosen to let Tian Quan go alone? Yao Guang didn’t know, but he couldn’t bear to see a familiar person leave again. Through Bai Sha’s face, he seemed to see the shadow of Tian Quan.
“I’m sorry.”
Yao Guang pursed his lips, whispering softly, “I shouldn’t have involved you in this.”
If Bai Sha hadn’t been walking with them, she wouldn’t have encountered such a situation, let alone become a target of the Netherworld Organization.
Bai Sha understood Yao Guang’s meaning clearly and managed to force a smile. “What are you saying… If it weren’t for you all, I might have already died in the wilderness.”
She looked at Yao Guang and continued, “I don’t regret meeting you all at all. And… Yao Guang, you know what? I was actually thinking before, if only I had a younger brother like you.”
“There they are!”
“We found them!”
At the other end of the underground passage, members of the Earth Womb Team spotted their trail, followed by a chaotic rush of footsteps getting closer.
Several figures clad in black emerged from the passage, surrounding Yao Guang and Bai Sha.
“Former member of the Big Dipper Squad, codename Yao Guang.”
A member of the Earth Womb Team stepped forward, aiming the gun at Yao Guang’s head, saying, “Finally found you.”
“As your former colleague, I advise you not to resist futilely.”
The Earth Womb member’s voice turned cold. “Our orders are clear: except for Tian Shu, everyone else, regardless of life or death, will be executed on the spot if they resist.”
Yao Guang lowered his gaze, silent. The dim underground tunnel hid his expression. His breathing was heavy; the exertion was taking a toll on his body. Meanwhile, Bai Sha lay on the ground, her head resting against Yao Guang’s leg, blood from her wounds staining his pants red.
Bai Sha’s breathing gradually weakened until it was barely audible.
“Where is Tian Shu now?”
The Earth Womb team member glanced briefly at Bai Sha, then shifted their gaze to Yao Guang. “You must have a predetermined meeting point, right? Where is it? What is Tian Shu’s purpose in coming to the Black Market?”
Bai Sha’s identity had been thoroughly investigated by the Earth Womb Team in advance, and to them, this girl held no value whatsoever, so they didn’t bother asking further.
Yao Guang lifted his head and spoke expressionlessly.
“What?”
A member of the Earth Womb Team frowned, not catching the words clearly.
The next moment,
Bang!
A deafening gunshot echoed through the underground tunnel. Simultaneously, two figures dashed out from the opposite side of the tunnel.
Tian Ji’s tall figure sprinted out from the tunnel, raising his gun and firing. As the shots rang out, two members of the Earth Womb Team collapsed.
“It’s Tian Ji!”
Upon seeing the familiar black vine tattoo on his face, the Netherworld Organization immediately recognized his identity, sending a chill through their hearts.
The technology of creating modified humans by the Netherworld Organization had been around for many years, but successful cases were rare. Tian Ji was one of the few successful models, and he was considered the most perfect one. As the former captain of the Big Dipper Squad, Tian Ji’s strength was outstanding within the entire Netherworld Organization.
Realizing Tian Ji’s presence, two members behind the Earth Womb Team quickly drew their guns. However, before they could aim, Tian Ji casually pulled the trigger, hitting both of them accurately in the arms.
With superior physical capabilities and combat awareness as a modified human, Tian Ji didn’t even need to rely on marksmanship alone. In terms of hand-to-hand combat skills alone, not even Tian Quan, the former leader of the Big Dipper Squad, could match Tian Ji.
As the Wild Wolf watched Tian Ji swiftly neutralize several members of the Earth Womb Team without expression, he couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement.
“Damn it…”
With just one encounter, three people were already dead or injured. The leader of the Earth Womb Team cursed angrily, “Everyone, be on alert, prepare for combat! Call for reinforcements from Squad 34, swift and decisive action!”
Tian Ji fired three shots in rapid succession, but this time, they were ineffective. Members of the Earth Womb Team quickly took cover behind barriers. Tian Ji swiftly advanced, moving towards Yao Guang’s direction.
“How is it?”
Tian Ji’s voice came from above. Yao Guang lifted his head, his gaze somewhat bewildered.
Tian Ji’s eyes fell on Bai Sha beside Yao Guang and fell silent involuntarily.
Bai Sha had already stopped breathing.
“…Let’s go first.”
Tian Ji didn’t know how to console Yao Guang, but the situation wasn’t good. He could only say, “I’ve shaken off one team, but they’ll be here soon. Let’s leave here first and rendezvous with Ming Zhu.”
Yao Guang shook his head. “Tian Ji… kill them.”
Tian Ji paused, facing Yao Guang’s gaze and the rare cold expression, he relented.
“Okay.”
Tian Ji nodded and reloaded his gun. “Give me two minutes.”
