Chapter 534
GOR Chapter 534 Once Again?
The golden light spread out like a tidal wave . Like a cleansing wave, it swept away every Electronic Guardians within an area of a hundred metres . Amid the radiance of the golden light, all of the mechanical octopuses were shattered into fragments .
The continuous explosive destructions of the Electronic Guardians caused orange coloured flames to erupt throughout the battlefield . It was as though someone had started firing fireworks everywhere .
Angel Wu felt the pressure on his body lighten . The burdensome feeling he had felt despite giving it his all finally lifted and he forced himself up . Then, he saw a small human figure standing no more than five metres away from him .
It was Chen Xiaolian .
…
Chen Xiaolian had entered a strange and wondrous state .
He stood there, his hand wielding the Sword in the Stone . The blade of his sword shone and countless streams of golden light flowed out, sweeping its way into every corner .
As for Chen Xiaolian, he had his eyes closed .
Within his sea of consciousness, he could seemingly ‘see’ a peculiar image .
Within a 100-metre radius area, all was dark . Within the darkness, he saw something resembling a monochromatic movie screen .
He could see the forces on his side, the silhouettes of the battle mechs belonging to the Angel Corps . He could clearly see them all, regardless if they were in front of behind, left or right, near or far .
However, there were also some special existences within the monochromatic screen .
Red coloured clumps of light .
The clumps of light filled the screen . Some of them were latching onto the bodies of the mechs while others wreaked havoc… .
Chen Xiaolian knew that those clumps of light represented the Electronic Guardians, the disgusting mechanical octopuses .
Chen Xiaolian could feel a wondrous sensation . He could feel himself controlling the golden sword beams .
This power he acquired from Skyblade was originally a discharge type of explosive power . Presently however, he brandished the Sword in the Stone and the golden light radiating out from the sword became an extension of his will . After flowing out, every sword beam became like one of his fingers, obeying his every command .
It was as though he had created countless doppelgangers of himself . Truly, a wondrous sensation .
Instinctively, one by one, he commanded the sword beams to strike every Electronic Guardian there .
Accurate, swift and ferocious .
…
Angel Wu looked to his side in a stupor . The Electronic Guardians that were latching onto his mech were all destroyed, exploding into fragments under the might of the golden light . As for his own mech, it remained unharmed . The golden light had not inflicted even a scratch upon the surface of his mech .
Such a precise execution! It is as if he knows exactly where each friend and foe lies!
Angel Wu was momentarily taken aback .
As an [S] class expert himself, he understood that such an exquisite level of precision was something so far away, he would never be able to reach . The apex!
Although every leading figure within Zero City was of the [S] class… …
To be able to control this power to such a level of detail, to such a level of precision; to be able to grasp the subtlety of this power to such lofty heights… only one person had ever accomplished this .
Skyblade!
With his strength alone, he brought a Blade Mountain Flame Sea Guild that was not that powerful with him, forcing his way into one of the permanent resident seats of Zero City .
…
Since obtaining Skyblade’s power, this was the first time Chen Xiaolian entered such a wondrous state .
This state caused him to forget about everything . At that very moment, he seemingly forgot where he was and what was happening . Instead, he simply immersed himself within the feeling of mastering this power .
Almost joyfully, he controlled every one of the golden beams to attack the clumps of light that represented the Electronic Guardians .
Each time a golden beam destroyed an Electronic Guardian, he felt a joy obtained from reaching a certain comprehension within his sea of consciousness – the more he used it, the higher his comprehension became .
…
The whole process lasted less than 10 seconds .
All the mechanical octopuses within a radius of 100 metres were all cleaned up .
Every battle mech from the Angel Corps that were struggling to get up cast gazes of shock at Chen Xiaolian, who was standing in the middle of it all .
The Force Angel’s shield was already ruined . Only two thirds of the shield surface remained . Even then, there were several holes on them . As for its flail, its chain was broken and Force Angel had to use the other end of the chain to wield it . However, doing so had shortened its range of attack considerably .
The surface of the Force Angel’s mech was also filled with many gouge marks .
The same held true for the Task Angel and Phase Angel . Even the Light Angel, with a body focused on agility, who had only engaged in long-ranged support within the battlefield and not in melee was considerably damaged .
As for the other mechs belonging to the Angel Corps, they were worst off . In the short but brutal exchange earlier, with the exception of the True Angels, four were lost and another four were badly damaged . All the others had taken damage as well .
The four badly damaged mechs had already lost all mobility functions .
If Chen Xiaolian had not acted in time, it was likely that the four badly damaged mechs would end up destroyed .
…
Bluesea himself had forgotten all about firing . He continued standing behind the cannon rack and watched what was happening before him in stupor .
After the cleansing golden light passed through, all was cleared .
The distant Electronic Guardians retreated backward . This alleviated some of the pressure off the Zero City defenders who were firing at them .
There was however, a puzzling question within Bluesea’s mind . When did Chen Xiaolian rush out?
Why did he suddenly rush out?
Bluesea had not known about it . He had failed to notice it as well .
…
Chen Xiaolian stood on the same spot, the Sword in the Stone in his hand was lowered and the tip of the sword touched the ground .
However, his eyes remained closed .
He then received a prompt from his personal system .
[????: Damaged Electronic Guardians X 236, captured cognizant organic electronic life form X 6 . Target objective complete . ]
Chen Xiaolian was stunned .
It was at this moment that he realized the issue .
I… … why did I rush out just now?
…
Shen’s eyes were shining .
He stood and looked into the distant south street area, at where the battle was taking place .
The look in his eyes… it was as though he was going to devour someone . He really looked as if he wanted to swallow something whole .
“This… … this is the power I need!” His eyes shone with excitement .
…
“Chen Xiaolian, thank you . ” Angel Wu struggled just to speak up . His communication device had taken damage earlier and he could now only use his external loudspeaker to communicate with Chen Xiaolian .
Chen Xiaolian took a deep breath and nodded his head in confusion .
“You… … that move, that is Skyblade’s power, isn’t it? He passed his power over to you?” Angel Wu gave a wry smile and said, “Back in the competition arena, I had felt it . However, I never expected that you would be able to utilize his power to such a degree . This level of mastery is in no way inferior to Skyblade himself . ”
The Force Angel, Light Angel, Phase Angel and Task Angel simultaneously turned to face Chen Xiaolian . They raised their left arm and performed a gesture resembling that used by the military during ceremonies . The True Angels from the Angel Corps used that gesture to thank Chen Xiaolian for saving them just now .
Chen Xiaolian, who had finally recollected himself, felt a sudden burst of fatigue throughout his body . His mind was extremely exhausted . It was as though he had not slept for three days and nights .
He clenched his teeth with all he had and forced his eyelids to remain open . However, his legs were beginning to tremble slightly .
His arm, which was holding the Sword in the Stone, was also bombarded by wave after wave of aching pain .
He felt utterly dumbfounded .
He himself had no idea what he had done earlier .
He could not begin to understand how he had even accomplished that feat .
Suddenly, something else happened .
…
Everyone on the Player faction, Shen included, received a system prompt from the system .
When Shen read the contents of the prompt, his face turned exceptionally excited .
[System prompt: Quest revised!

After receiving and reading through the system prompt… …
All the Players entered a frenzy state .
Issuing out such a lucrative reward was an unprecedented action by the system .
In but an instant, all the Players’ eyes turned bloodshot and their rate of breathing grew ragged . The desire for battle surged through their hearts as they rubbed their fists and turned to look at the south street .
An eye-catching red dot had appeared on their personal radar . It was within the south street area, somewhere not too far away from the Board of Patriarchs’ building .
The lucrative reward .
The reward was so lucrative it would lead any Player to throw their lives away for it .
It could give any Player the chance to rise up the ranks of power .
Among them all, Shen was the only one to stand quietly .
There was a tangled expression on his face .
Next, this mysterious Guild Leader of Thorned Flower Guild spoke to himself again . He was the only one who could hear what he said .
“As expected, it is happening … … once again, humph!”
