Chapter 37 : The undercurrent under the pitch black
It was late at night, and everything was calm, at least, on the surface. Hidden in the corners of the city, those unstable turbulences may be ready to stir at this moment, but who knows? Anyway, they will not invade this heavily defended absolute technology headquarters, Drex.
The guards of the Drakes night shift are much less than during the day, after all, the soldiers also need to rest, most of the defense work at night is done autonomously by the machines developed by Lingo, although these machines are only used for surveillance, but they are directly connected to the weapon system, most of the machines are equipped with low noise, small fire, but can kill people in an instant, and they don't need to be warned in advance to deal with intruders! This is what makes Drakes so frightening, so at night, ordinary residents of Drakes try to avoid approaching the military zone for fear of being accidentally injured.
It was so dark that no one noticed that a piece of bulletproof glass high up in the main city tower was slowly detaching itself from its original position. The piece of glass floated slowly in the air, slowly sideways, and then stopped moving.
An agile figure leapt out of the gap in the tower and stepped onto the suspended glass, he condescendingly looked down at the quiet of the night, Drex, and laughed coldly, as if mocking the city's numbness and stupidity.
He tapped the glass with his foot and was about to leave, when suddenly, a voice came from behind him, and his tone was full of sleepiness: "Ha...... Oy, it's so late, where do you want to go?!"
The figure on the glass turned his head suddenly, and the arrival of this uninvited guest surprised him very much, only to see a bright red mechanical helmet emerging from the shadow on the side of the gap, it was actually the Fourth Heavenly King - Evan Zhe!
Seeing that his whereabouts were revealed, the figure immediately assumed a fighting posture, and in the blink of an eye, the majestic soul power immediately surrounded the figure, ready to attack, looking full of killing intent, as if he wanted to fight with Evan endlessly.
"Hey...... Don't be so nervous, are you sure you want to do it with me here?" Evan pretended to rub his helmet like a normal person's eyes, pretending to be very sleepy, and he said with a pretended annoyance, "Please, do you think that you can swagger away from the airspace of absolute technology, and really think that Drakes' defense is an ornament?"
"What...... How can you be so clear......"
"Huh, what are you talking about, what did you forget I am?" Evan tilted his head and looked at the figure in front of him as if he were looking at a young child.
"Cut ......" The figure unconsciously took a step back, he knew that tonight's plan had been ruined, and the person in front of him would not let himself leave easily, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out three words from between his teeth: "Let me go......"
Then there was a deathly silence......
The bulletproof glass on Evan's helmet was pitch black, making it impossible to know how he was reacting. Time is passing little by little, but Evan still has no reaction, in this extremely dark night, the two of them are like this, facing each other in this uninhabited sky, the figure feels more and more uneasy, finally, he can no longer bear this wordless torment, he gathered all the majestic soul power into his right hand, ready to do his best to hit a super powerful blow. Although the figure knows that his strength is inferior to that of the other party, if he tries his best in an instant, this blow may buy him enough time to escape. With his soul king-level soul power, it is enough to severely damage this main city tower! As long as he can cause enough chaos, he can usher in the best time to escape. And just when his fist was halfway through, Evan in front of him suddenly disappeared!
The figure was startled, and just when he was about to withdraw his hand, something suddenly pinched his wrist tightly, and suddenly, a more powerful soul power spread all over his body along his right hand, canceling out all the soul power he had condensed before, not only that, but his whole person was also oppressed by this soul power to the point that his body was distorted, and countless cracks appeared in the glass under his feet!
The figure looked up with great difficulty, checking the condition of his right hand, the source of that terrifying soul power was nothing else, it was Evan's hand!
"A bow that is always tight doesn't shoot powerful arrows...... Evan's deep voice came from his helmet, "You're negligent......"
The figure was obviously frightened by Evan's terrifying speed, and he tried his best to resist, trying to break free from Evan's control, but Evan's hand had extraordinary strength, clamping his hand tightly, let alone breaking free, and couldn't even move.
"Eh, what are you doing with so much force? I didn't say I wouldn't let you go. Evan returned to his usual teasing tone, letting go of his hand as he spoke. On the contrary, the figure was unstable because of too much force, and fell off the glass.
But it didn't take long for the figure to fly up, and I saw a circular translucent ripple spreading under each of his feet, presumably he was able to float in the air.
Ignoring his previous embarrassment, the figure asked directly: "What did you just say......
"Didn't I say I wouldn't let you go, or did you say you were reluctant to go?"
"Why...... No...... You said that absolute technology is fortified in the air......"
"It's just scanning the radar, I've turned it off for you, or they'll be spotted when you fall." ”
"Why help me ......"
"I just couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, I came out to blow the wind, I really didn't expect to meet such a disappointing guy as you......" Evan said as he took off his helmet that he never took off in front of outsiders, it may be an extremely ordinary face, but it is a very familiar face to Absolute Technology, and even to all Soul Kings......
"You...... Your face!! What the hell are you......"
"Shhh......hhh ”
"......Shh You're not here just to help them. ”
Evan sneered, put on his helmet again, and said coldly, "This kind of thing...... Isn't it just a 'look'......
The figure finally understood that the danger of the person in front of him was not comparable to that of ordinary soul kings, and he stepped hard, leaping quickly in the air, leaving this place of right and wrong......
Evan jumped back into the gap, looked in the direction the figure had left, and let out another weird sneer, and then, in a voice that only he could hear, whispered, "I didn't say I wouldn't let you go...... But...... I didn't say I was going to let you go......"
At night, in the silence of the drakes, only the crisp cracking sound of glass as it fell to the ground could be heard, but how many people could hear the cold laughter on the main city tower......
