From BOSS to Canon Fodder: She is Currently Out of Service!
Chapter 257 - 128: I’m Sick—Do You Have a Cure? (Part 2)
"It seems there’s really a need to talk to the old man about this... Phew, if this continues, the entire Alliance will be in ruins." Gu Ningzhi skillfully snapped his fingers, and the extinguished ashes drifted down, a few degrees of seriousness added to his roguish face.
His gaze fell on the wreckage of Mechas he had taken down, and Gu Ningzhi’s mood was quite complicated. He was one of the insiders who knew more than most, but when he discovered that these escapees even knew about the secret passages of the Xilena First Affiliated School, his heart grew cold.
Before Gu Ningxuan, Young Master Gu Ningzhi was also once cultivated by the Gu Family as a standard heir, so he knew the secrets that Gu Ningxuan knew. As a reserve of the Xilena Academy, each student of the First Affiliated School was a future elite, destined not to settle for mediocrity. It could be said they were the freshest blood of the entire Alliance...
The existence of secret passages was originally to protect the school and safeguard the students, serving as the last line of defense for the entire Xilena First Affiliated School. And now... witnessing the blazing wreckage and dismembered remains of the Mechas, Gu Ningzhi felt the situation was too severe.
"Such significant breaches and parasites within the Alliance must be eradicated soon; otherwise, the harm could last for centuries!" Gu Ningzhi muttered to himself and then flicked the soon-extinguished cigarette butt down the mechanical arm, retrieving the Mecha into the Space Hub.
Meanwhile, his third brother, Gu Ningxuan, was also caught in a rather fierce melee. If others knew what Gu Ningzhi was thinking, they would undoubtedly freak out and shout, claiming it’s not due to their lack of strength but the overwhelming number of enemies!
Indeed, the enemies on Gu Ningzhi’s side were the weakest, the fewest, quite different from the situations faced by the others. Plus, Gu Ningzhi, lacking much integrity, adhered to the principle of striking first to prevent being struck when seeing an enemy, shamelessly. Even the strongest enemy could only drink their fill in regret against such an opponent ╮(╯▽╰)╭.
Gu Ningxuan, at this moment, also suppressed his battle lust and desire, his calm eyes full of fighting intent, his gaze locked onto the virtual projection inside the cockpit. At this moment, there was nothing in his eyes, heart, or mind but his Mecha and the enemy in front of him!
His hands moved skillfully, making the entire Mecha seem like an extension of his own body, with no hint of stiffness. To prevent the battle from affecting the unconscious students and the nearby buildings, Gu Ningxuan initially felt quite restricted, but he was not an ordinary person, quickly adapting to this battle rhythm, and the battle remained at a stalemate.
But soon, he noticed something unusual. When he thought he had reached the limit of his piloting abilities, he found he still had plenty of energy left; he could completely do better, faster, and stronger!
What’s going on? A faint doubt emerged in Gu Ningxuan’s mind, but the ongoing melee didn’t allow him to ponder further; he quickly cast the thought aside, focusing entirely on dealing with these troublesome and shameless guys.
In fact, if Gu Ningxuan paid closer attention, he would realize that the strength he was exhibiting far exceeded his actual level. However, unlike Su Jiameng, he couldn’t discover these differences in such a short time under extreme conditions.
He wasn’t merely wearing his dad’s face but was also simulating the other party’s strength.
Although this state doesn’t last long, there’s no problem in taking down the enemies in front of him within the set time. If his dad knew his son was using his strength and couldn’t take down such a batch of jokers, Mr. Gu would probably vomit blood in anger?
When Gu Ningzhi leisurely took down some scattered enemies and swaggered over to where his third brother was, he was left dumbfounded by the sight in front of him, with a herd of mythical alpacas running through his mind... Well, it turns out that this third brother of his does have some skills. Apparently, the rumors of this younger brother having more talent than the two older brothers weren’t without reason.
Gu Ningxuan manipulated his Mecha for a beautifully executed Space Punctuation Jump, the cold blade on the mechanical arm tracing an exquisite mark in the air, followed by an equally perfect Helical Interception. The ravaged Mecha he attacked reached a critical point, the cockpit split in two with a single blow, leaving the Mecha Master inside to meet a grisly end.
