Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 136 - 127 Strongest Superpowered Being_1
Chapter 136: Chapter 127 Strongest Superpowered Being_1
After checking his body’s condition, Chen Dalong left the room without any delay.
"Boss!" Standing at the doorway, Li Huosheng, Zhao Rong, Qin Fang, and Zhang Chenggang hurriedly called out respectfully upon seeing Chen Dalong emerge.
These four were Chen Dalong’s most trusted people, so for this breakthrough, to be cautious, he specifically had all four of them return to protect him.
At this moment, all four gazed at Chen Dalong eagerly, as if waiting for an answer.
"Haha! I’ve broken through. Let’s go! It’s time to claim the top spot." Chen Dalong laughed and said to the others.
"The boss is mighty!"
"Once the boss has clinched the top spot, I reckon even the military will have to give us some respect."
"Yeah! I’ve heard that other security companies are trying to recruit superhumans, aiming to contend with us, but now that the boss has broken through, they can go play in the mud!"
Li Huosheng and the others exclaimed excitedly.
As Chen Dalong’s sworn brothers and core veterans of the company, they naturally hoped Chen would grow stronger.
"Alright, there will be time for celebration after I’ve reached the top. For now, you all should quickly return to your posts!"
"Especially you, Li Huosheng. Even though the military has arranged a squad to protect the Ye Family, you mustn’t let your guard down," Chen Dalong said.
"Yes!" The four men hurriedly responded in unison.
Having said his piece, Chen Dalong didn’t bother with them anymore and walked away.
He didn’t head straight for the front lines but instead went to the temporary supply point behind the defenses.
He quickly received the two Ring-Headed Knives that he had asked Feng Jun to help order.
The knives had been ready long ago, but he hadn’t used them in the previous battles.
Chen Dalong caressed the blades and then swung them around. Sure enough, they were much handier than the military daggers.
When the time came to kill the Mutated Mice, the efficiency might even improve by about thirty percent on the original basis.
"I hope this move, which I’ve deliberately hidden, will bring an even more shocking effect," Chen Dalong muttered to himself.
To silence those critics online, one had to produce irrefutable evidence.
Now half an hour had passed, and the buzz about Chen Dalong had slightly calmed down. The one currently in the spotlight was not Pei Jin but Wang Feng, who was ranked second.
At that moment at Wang Feng’s defensive line, they were under attack from Mutated Mice.
With a wave of his hand, flames emerged from Wang Feng’s body, quickly coalescing into a three-meter-long, lifelike Fire Serpent in his hand.
No sooner had the Fire Serpent appeared than it darted into the battlefield, instantly setting ablaze any Mutated Mouse it touched.
It wasn’t just the fur that was burning; the flames seemed to penetrate under the skin, turning it red in an instant, even spouting flames.
Any Mutated Mouse that had its head touched by the Fire Serpent was basically dead within a second.
However, with each Mouse the Serpent touched, it shrank considerably in size.
After burning to death a total of 18 Mutated Mice, the Fire Serpent finally vanished.
Shu Mei: "Impressive! Pei Jin’s highest record is only killing 15 Mutated Mice. If this continues, Wang Feng will surely surpass Pei Jin."
However, his remark immediately met with rebuttals from Pei Jin’s fans.
Forward-looking Eyes: "You can’t say that. Wang Feng used to kill only 10 Mutated Mice in one go. He’s only recently improved his control over the Fire Serpent, focusing the burn on the heads of the Mice to reduce consumption and achieve what he has now. Who’s to say Pei Jin can’t continue to improve his control over the Golden Needle?"
Little Paper Smoke: "Exactly, if the Golden Needle power could be further controlled, my brother Pei Jin might be able to steer the needle around corners. Then, one needle could take down 5 Mutated Mice, and he could kill 25 in one go."
Soon, fans from both sides started arguing.
But the quarrel didn’t last long, as the live broadcast from the one who had been third and whose screen had been black suddenly showed an image.
Seeing this, numerous netizens flocked in, eager to know how strong Chen Dalong had become after his breakthrough.
As the live broadcast connected, the first person that appeared was a young and pretty female host holding a microphone, greeting the viewers.
"Hello, everyone! I’m the host, Du Gulan. I have great news! Captain Chen Dalong has successfully broken through to Mid Stage First Order. He’s the first in Yang City to reach Mid Stage First Order as a superhuman. Let’s all look forward to his upcoming performance!"
As her voice faded, the scene switched, and Chen Dalong reappeared in front of everyone.
Fenling Shuiyan: "Wait, did I hear the host right just now? Captain? Is he a military officer?"
Forward-looking Eyes: "I looked it up in a hurry, and it turns out he’s an honorary captain. Strictly speaking, he can only be considered half an officer. But the host didn’t mention ’honorary’ just now. It seems this is the attitude the military is displaying, clearly supporting him!"
Corridor Bridge: "Forget all that irrelevant stuff. I’m concerned about how much his strength has improved after breaking through to Mid Stage First Order and whether he can really challenge for the top spot."
Goodness Like Water: "Hey, hey, hey! Doesn’t anyone care about the new weapon he’s holding? If I’m not mistaken, that looks like the famous Ring-Headed Knives from the Western Han period!"
