Joy of Life: I am Li Chengze, and I have mastered the Eight Wonders

Chapter 92 War Machine
Li Chengze's extraordinary strength was obvious to all. Even the terrifying skills of Emperor Qing seemed easy to handle in his hands. However, at this moment, he was in a fierce fight with an opponent. The scene was stalemate and shocking.

The speed was so fast that it almost exceeded the limit of the naked eye, making it difficult for the onlookers to distinguish the battle situation. Just as he was immersed in this incredible speed, Li Chengze's shout suddenly pulled him back to reality: "Why are you standing there? Go!" Then, he added in a serious tone, "This robot is extraordinary. It can isolate the surrounding radiation energy. If you stay, you may be in danger of your life."

Fan Xian was confused and puzzled when he heard this, but Li Chengze's battle situation made him more worried. As the battle progressed, Li Chengze gradually realized that this robot was hiding an astonishing secret - it seemed to be able to weaken or even block the radiation energy conversion mechanism that humans in this world rely on.

In this world, new humans strengthen their own true qi by absorbing and transforming radiation energy. This is the truth that Li Chengze deeply understood before he became a grandmaster. He was unable to practice because of an inexplicable barrier in his body. It was not until he broke through and became a grandmaster that the barrier disappeared, allowing him to freely call on the power of this world.

But at this moment, facing this robot, he was surprised to find that the external forces he could mobilize were minimal, and he was almost entirely supported by his own accumulated true energy. If it weren't for the 1.3 attribute true energy in his body that was extremely pure and abundant, he would have been in a desperate situation within a hundred moves due to the exhaustion of true energy.

At this moment, Li Chengze finally understood why Wuzhu's name could be compared with that of a grandmaster. Such an opponent really had the power to shake the whole world. The iron in the opponent's hand suddenly made a series of roars, and then his figure retreated violently, instantly opening up a distance of dozens of meters. Fan He keenly captured this change, and immediately sensed the surge of natural forces around him, preparing to respond. Almost at the same moment, a 40-meter-long giant blade appeared out of nowhere, pointing directly at the opponent, with amazing momentum.

Seeing the bad situation, Fan He was startled, and he also retreated quickly, trying to avoid the fatal blow. However, at this critical moment, a robot suddenly appeared, blocking Fan He in front of him with lightning speed, making a sharp sound of metal collision, and quickly pulled off the cloth covering his face, revealing his hidden identity or secret.

When the command "clear" sounded, Li Chengze suddenly had an ominous premonition. "Get down!" he shouted hastily. Fan Xian quickly got down as if by reflex, and then a dazzling golden light passed over their heads, leaving only a series of subtle hissing sounds and burning smoke in the air, but no roar of explosion.

With his extraordinary skills, Li Chengze flexibly shuttled between the two intertwined golden lasers, trying his best to avoid this deadly attack. Even so, his clothes were cut by the lasers in many places, and his true energy was ruthlessly evaporated the moment it touched the lasers, making him sweat coldly and thinking to himself: When will this attack stop? Is there no time when this robot will run out of energy?
At this tense moment, the laser suddenly stopped spraying, and the robot's eyes returned to normal. It lowered its head and looked at its chest, where a black iron rod was inserted.

"Uncle Wuzhu!" Fan Xian was overjoyed when he saw Wuzhu. Li Chengze stood in the distance, looking at Wuzhu, with a hint of blame and curiosity in his tone: "You have been here for a long time, right? Why did you take action now?"

Wu Zhu nodded slightly and answered calmly, "I tried to chase the man who fired the gun, but failed." Upon hearing this, Fan Xian hurriedly asked, "Did you see the man's face clearly?" Wu Zhu pulled out the iron rod from the robot's corpse and shook his head, "No, but I can be sure that he is not an ordinary person."

This sudden battle made the three of them fall into deep thought, and the crisis hidden in the dark seemed to have just revealed the tip of the iceberg. Fan Xian couldn't help feeling a sense of loss. For the first time in many years, he had hoped to see the people from the temple with his own eyes, but he didn't expect that one of them met with misfortune and the other escaped without a trace. Obtaining clues to the secrets of the temple seemed to be out of reach again.

Li Chengze slowly walked to the corpse, and gently touched the golden liquid flowing out of the wound with his right hand. He felt its unique stickiness and pungent smell, and couldn't help wondering, "Is this... engine oil? Or some kind of high-grade lubricant?" He turned to Fan Xian and smiled, "Come, take a look too. The technology of the temple is truly beyond imagination and amazing!"

"These people," Li Chengze said with a hint of joking, "maybe they are all the masterpieces of your mother Ye Qingmei, real robots?" Upon hearing this, Fan Xian quickly squatted down to take a closer look, and then looked stunned. Indeed, the liquid was undoubtedly lubricant. This discovery made countless thoughts flash through his mind, and finally converged into a bold conjecture.

He looked up at Li Chengze, his eyes full of inquiry: "You...are you really not from the temple?"

Li Chengze shook his head, his smile was filled with helplessness and self-mockery: "If I were really from the temple, why would I conspire with you and me here? I would definitely take away the technological weapons there, such as the sniper rifles. Only a few dozen of them would be enough to sweep across this continent." He paused and continued, "A bullet with three times the speed of sound would be hard to escape even for a peak Celestial Realm warrior if he is not prepared. But unfortunately, I am not from there."

These words made Fan Xian fall into deeper thinking. The secrets about the temple, Ye Qingmei, and this world seemed to be slowly unveiling their mysterious veil. Fan Xian nodded thoughtfully: "So, you are not from the future, but from a universe parallel to ours?"

Li Chengze shook his head slightly and corrected: "It's not the future, to be more precise, it's another parallel world. There, history has not experienced the so-called great extinction."

Having said this, he turned to Wu Zhu and asked, "Regarding this corpse, if you need anything, I can help you deal with it." Wu Zhu responded simply with a nod.

Fan Xian was about to continue asking questions when Li Chengze interrupted him: "It is better for us to leave here first and discuss it in detail when we return to Kyoto. If the sniper in the dark returns, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to escape." Upon hearing this, Fan Xian shuddered and quickly nodded in agreement.

Kyoto was in the night, with lights fading. The No. 1 building in the world was towering into the sky, and Ye Liuyun was sitting on the rooftop leisurely, with the eldest prince Li Chengru tied up beside him. It turned out that Li Chengru tried to go back to Beijing to get help, but unexpectedly fell into Ye Liuyun's hands.

"You traitors, when my father returns, I will make sure you die without a burial place!" Li Chengru roared angrily, and did not forget to drag Gong Dian down with him, "And Gong Dian, he is in cahoots with your Ye family, treason is a heinous crime that cannot be pardoned!"

Ye Liuyun couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Young man, you've said these words so many times, aren't you tired of it? Is it useful? You'd better save your energy and stay here obediently."

Time passed quietly, the hands pointed to 23:09, the night became darker, and the undercurrent in Kyoto seemed to indicate that a more intense storm was coming.
