Han Xiao turned into the guard’s uniform earlier than leaving Lin Wei Xian’s laboratory.

It was seemingly that folks knew he had been taken to Lin Wei Xian, so a disguise was essential. There have been often 4 folks within the base that he needed to be careful for – Hila, No. 1, Lin Wei Xian, and Baltar. As Hila was not in, No. 1 had left, and Lin Wei Xian was a non-factor now, Han Xiao’s escape would proceed easily so long as he didn’t encounter Baltar.

The primary gate to the bottom was a strengthened metal door nearly one metre thick. Even when Han Xiao used all of the explosives within the armory, it will nonetheless not be sufficient to blast it open. The one strategy to escape can be by unlocking it, and solely three folks possessed the safety cross to take action. Certainly one of them was none apart from Lin Wei Xian, and, naturally, Han Xiao had already acquired his cross.

Nonetheless, as the primary gate was closely manned, and everybody knew precisely who possessed a cross, escaping was not that easy.

If Han Xiao a lot as appeared on the foremost gate, he can be surrounded by heavy fireplace in mere seconds. One bullet would do solely 10 injury to him, however add all of them up and he can be fortunate to final for even a second.

Mm, not a nasty strategy to go, he thought, however I feel I’ll give you a greater concept.

Han Xiao’s plan was to cripple their communications to be able to acquire just a few hours of time. This was the most secure possibility. At present, he was heading again to the tuning room to retrieve the mecha arm first.

Because the tuning room got here into sight, Han Xiao was out of the blue pushed from the facet. To his horror, the one who had pushed him was none apart from Baltar.

Why am I so unfortunate‽ he groaned inwardly.

“Which squad are you from?” questioned Baltar. “Why have I by no means seen you earlier than?”

Han Xiao lowered his head and pushed his cap down.

“I’m new right here. I’m from squad B.”

“Why was I not knowledgeable of recent guards? Maintain on, your voice sounds acquainted. Increase your head and present me your face.”

Han Xiao observed that Baltar was slowly reaching for his handgun. Three guards close by had additionally sensed that one thing was amiss.

What ought to I do now?

If Han Xiao have been uncovered now, Baltar would positively ship guards to search for Lin Wei Xian. That may be disastrous.

“It is a downside… I didn’t need to should resort to plan B…” muttered Han Xiao.

“What did you say?”

Out of the blue, Han Xiao raised his head to disclose his face to Baltar.

“I’ve all the time needed to inform you this: go see a shrink, psycho!”

“Zero‽”

Han Xiao took benefit of his confusion and thrust his knife into Baltar’s chest.

Sadly, Baltar dodged on reflex, and Han Xiao’s knife solely grazed his chin.

“Fireplace!”

The three guards swiftly reached out to attract their weapons. Sadly, they have been too near Han Xiao, and Han Xiao managed to shut in on them earlier than they might fireplace. He despatched a fist smashing into the closest guard’s face.

-48!

The punch despatched the guard flying backwards into his comrades.

Han Xiao gritted his tooth as he circled to make a touch for the tuning room.

Baltar’s face darkened as he felt his chin. As he gave chase, he shouted into the transmitter on his collar, “All brokers, pay attention up! Come to the tuning room on the second flooring without delay! Check topic Zero has gone rogue!”

All of the guards who heard the information have been surprised.

“Zero? Gone rogue? Are you certain‽”

“Wasn’t he brainwashed?”

“Is that this a drill?”

“Are you dumb? Didn’t you hear the gunshots‽”

Han Xiao turned unusually calm below the assault of Baltar’s gunfire. As his mind started to course of all of the variables and knowledge in his environment, the world earlier than him astonishingly modified. Han Xiao’s environment started to be decreased to 3D traces, as if his thoughts have been filtering out all of the litter – making every little thing look clear to him. One way or the other, he had entered a frame of mind wherein all his mind’s features have been heightened.

“2.0 seconds to achieve the tuning room. 3.7 seconds for Baltar to catch up. The three guards won’t pose any menace for one more 4.2 seconds. Roughly 30.0 seconds earlier than reinforcements arrive…”

Han Xiao had been by numerous battles earlier than. Though they have been all from his time within the recreation, it was nonetheless expertise. And it was exactly expertise that enabled him to faucet into this particular state.

He began to run in an irregular sample to dodge the bullets.

“Fascinating. The toy needs to withstand,” mused a frenzied Baltar. “You requested for it!”

Baltar was an elite agent with over 20 years of expertise. Irrespective of how terrifying Han Xiao’s studying functionality was, he had basically educated for under 6 months. To him, the end result was already determined.

As quickly as Han Xiao neared the tuning room, he jumped inside and locked the door.

Baltar burst out in maniacal laughter as he paused to reload his gun.

“Hiding in a room? You might have sealed your destiny!”

Out of the blue, the door was blasted into smithereens by what gave the impression to be a huge mecha arm that appeared out of nowhere. It adopted by to smash into Baltar’s chest.

-95!

Baltar was despatched flying into the wall. 4 or 5 of his ribs have been damaged by the drive of the influence. As he received up, he coughed a mouthful of blood and regarded on the newly emerged Han Xiao in disbelief.

“What the hell is that‽” Baltar stared in shock on the gigantic mecha arm that was enshrouded by the black smoke it was pumping out.

The three guards raised their weapons to fireside, however Han Xiao was a step faster. Together with his proper hand, he drew his enhanced 73-WASP and fired two consecutive photographs.

With the accuracy bonus supplied from his abilities and DEX, Han Xiao’s present taking pictures talents have been extraordinarily horrifying. Every bullet hit both guard squarely within the throat.

The third guard opened fireplace, however Han Xiao merely raised the mecha arm.

Clank!

The bullet deflected.

Han Xiao fired one other shot.

The guard collapsed to his knees with an expression of disbelief.

The hall quietened down. Han Xiao and Baltar confronted one another off.

“The closest guard will take one other thirty seconds to reach,” calculated Han Xiao.

Han Xiao flexed his mecha arm tauntingly.

“I actually really feel like crushing your throat with my naked arms to thanks for all 4 hundred and twenty cuts.”

Baltor furiously spat out some blood and laughed coldly as he unsheathed a dagger that had been hid inside his boots.

“That was fairly a punch, however don’t assume which you could defeat me with a chunk of junk like that!”

“We’ll see.”

“I can kill you ten occasions in thirty seconds!” howled Baltar as he out of the blue pounced ahead.

Han Xiao charged ahead to fulfill him.

Sparks flew as Baltar’s knife clashed with Han Xiao’s mecha arm.

Within the second that they handed one another, Baltar bent down and aimed a kick at Han Xiao’s knee together with his foot. To journey the enemy from behind was an especially efficient tactic that Han Xiao had learnt from Hila, and, sadly for Baltar, Han Xiao had anticipated the transfer. Seemingly with superhuman reflexes, Han Xiao swung all the mecha arm again to smash into Baltar’s foot.

Baltar’s foot was fractured by the blow. He crumpled to the gruond.

-87!

The Mechanical Arm had an influence degree of 38. Added onto Han Xiao’s personal energy degree, the may of blow was already on the degree of an E-grade Superhuman. It had basically doubled Han Xiao’s injury.

Han Xiao estimated Baltar to have a max HP of 300. Coupled with that harmful blow from earlier on, Han Xiao knew that he was most likely at half well being already.

Baltar was certainly extraordinarily weakened. Nonetheless, he endured the ache and continued to assault. Sadly, his actions had grown boring, and Han Xiao simply caught his arm.

“Unattainable… How might I… You…”

Baltar howled indignantly as he struggled to interrupt free from the grip of the mecha arm.

Out of the blue, the world earlier than him darkened as Han Xiao wrapped the mecha arm round his head and slammed him into the wall.

Splat!

Baltar was no extra.

Han Xiao dragged the already unrecognizable Baltar in opposition to the wall.

“Sorry, I lied. I didn’t crush your throat. Why don’t you stand up so I can do it correctly?”

Baltar didn’t reply, not that he might.
