Li Qianxia pulled Itheri and instantly left.
"Thinking of running?" The furry alien had been staring at Luo Lei. The moment her gaze shifted, it raised its knee and charged it towards Luo Lei's chin.
Bang!
Luo Lei was smashed against the ceiling like a pancake.
The furry alien turned around, its muscles writhing like a swarm of worms, its feet plowing the ground, and with a bang, it charged back and forth in the corridor.
The three mechanical beasts that rushed in couldn't avoid it in time and shattered into a pile of pieces.
Li Qianxia used the instantaneous movement twice in a row, dodged the collision, and broke out in cold sweat all over her body, almost turned into a bloody mush!
Its claws plowed furrows on the metal wall, and the furry alien stopped.
"I can feel it..." It posed to sprint, its posture as perfect as a top athlete, muscles making it look like a sculpture.
The furry alien raised its head, eyes blood-red, its ferocity visibly showing.
"...you're still here!"
The knee suddenly powered up.
Bang!!
After three rounds back and forth, the furry alien's speed was so fast it filled the entire corridor with afterimages.
Danger! Danger! Danger!
Li Qianxia dared not blink, using her dynamic vision, weakened by hundreds of times, to its extreme, firmly focusing on the figure of the furry alien.
Stopping it was simple, show the steel gun, and go head-to-head with it.
Perhaps no match, the steel gun might not pierce the body that could smash mechanical beasts, but just for an instant, Itheri could hack the enemy's mind, no matter how strong the body is, it's useless.
But at the same time, they would be exposed again.
If caught by Konglu, it could rely on the main brain to calculate their likely movement trajectory.
Can't make a move!
"Luo Lei!" Itheri hacked into the Doctor's brain.
Black armor's legs, melting like flowing black liquid, fell to the ground and solidified into a fixture, anchoring Luo Lei firmly in place.
"Do you know what heads are for?" Luo Lei's calm voice contrasted with her hands, which erupted with tremendous strength, tightly holding onto the furry alien.
The furry alien, infuriated, its expression turning even more fierce and terrifying.
"Like this." Bang! Luo Lei's helmet fiercely struck the alien's head.
Li Qianxia instantly left, still faintly hearing the muffled impact.
"Be careful," Itheri said in a deep voice.
The surroundings still teemed with blind, dense, deadly attacks; the two silently moved forward as if walking through a graveyard.
Those graves were all open, just waiting for them to fall in and then immediately close the coffin.
"Can't stop them!" The Dinosaur Head Warrior, not receiving any support, shouted in the communication.
The two tensed up; if small robots were to flood in...
"Damn it!" Bi's voice came, "Stay away from this Princess, I'm going to kill these spit-spraying bugs!"
Three seconds later, the ground trembled like it was scared.
Li Qianxia recalled the footage played by Xiaoyue before the full moon event—Bi had crushed a slum about the size of Ming City University.
How strong was Bi now?
The trembling didn't stop for a long time; the two followed the tremors, feeling their way forward.
Finally.
"Here." Itheri spoke.
Li Qianxia let out a slight sigh of relief, then tensed her attention again.
The door to the control center, not primitive technology, was easily hacked by Itheri.
Once the doors opened one after another, the control center lay before them.
They didn't rush in; Li Qianxia pulled Xiaoluo out from her chest, flicked her on the head to wake her from her self-absorbed world.
"Any danger?" Li Qianxia pointed at the control center and asked in a low voice (the voice could also be hidden, but she subconsciously didn't want to make too much noise).
Xiaoluo, hands gripping Li Qianxia's collar, peeked at the control center like a cautious groundhog.
She also replied in a whisper-like tone: "No."
Li Qianxia and Itheri exchanged glances, seeing the doubt in each other's eyes; at this moment, danger would have made them feel safer—had there been any time along the way that any place was safe?
Could it be tightly guarded outside but lax inside? All defense mechanisms arranged outside?
No matter what, the two proceeded inside.
By now, Itheri's eyes were full of bloodshot veins, the continuous use of hacking abilities greatly draining her mentally and physically.
Blue light was cast down, and Li Qianxia instinctively protected Itheri behind her.
Itheri touched her shoulder, signaling her not to panic; it wasn't a laser.
The blue light outlined a human shape, high-nosed and broad-faced, with slightly curly golden hair, a man in his twenties.
"I know you're here, hacker," the man spoke, "very impressive, truly impressive, befitting of the Bounty Hunters renowned across the Divine Will Great Wall. Even with all my preparations, you still infiltrated this place."
"Is this Konglu?" Li Qianxia asked Itheri.
"It's him, but it might not be his original appearance. Konglu has long since abandoned his body, even more extreme than Ascension Warriors, completely mechanized, becoming this fortress. If I'm not wrong, he wants to turn Konglu Star into his own body."
