The sky was dark above the wasteland, with low-hanging dark clouds. The earth and the sky seemed to be stuck together. Strong winds blew up yellow sand all over the sky, and the air was filled with a suppressed sense of restlessness.

Su Mo, Nuo Bai and Dong Dong surrounded Zhou Hannian and trapped him in the middle, making him vulnerable to attacks from both sides.

There were only a few steps between the two sides, but that short distance seemed to separate two worlds.

The gazes of the three main forces on the edge were like intertwined blades, hiding a dangerous cold light, looking for any possible flaws in Zhou Hannian.

Zhou Hannian, however, had a blank expression on his face, and exuded a fearless aura. Even though there was someone behind him, he did not hesitate, as if he had taken in everything around him.

Only the sound of wind and sand echoed around the wasteland. Occasionally, a bird would fly by from a distance, making a few shrill cries, as if sounding the death knell for the upcoming bloody battle.

"Heh." Seeing that the opponent was double-teamed from front and back and was still hesitant, Zhou Hannian sneered disdainfully, "Three against one and you're still hesitating. Is that all the courage you young people have?"

These words were obviously meant to provoke, but Dongdong's hot temper made it impossible for him to stand such provocation, and he immediately became angry.

However, Su Mo had said so before, so she suppressed her impulse and asked for advice in a deep voice: "Boss, it will be good for him if we delay it. We can't waste time. Let's fight him first."

Just because Su Mo forbids people from fighting, doesn’t mean he won’t fight.

After all, Dongdong was right, time was not on their side.

Every second we are delayed here, the situation will become more unfavorable.

Even if he didn't find any flaws, Su Mo could only give the order: "Go!"

"Swish——" The first to launch the attack was Dongdong. A scorching light flashed in her eyes and she entered the second gear overload state. The dragon steel baseball bat swung out an arc of light with a sharp sound of air tearing and hit Zhou Hannian directly.

At the same time, scarlet blood lines appeared on Nuo Bai's body. In the state of burning blood, she tore through the sound barrier. The Tang sword hissed like a dragon, and a violent turbulence was set off around her, rushing towards Zhou Hannian.

As an experienced mercenary, Zhou Hannian's fighting style is extremely ruthless. He is not the kind of fool who hides his strength at the beginning and only shows his true strength when he is beaten to the point of being exhausted.

He would never shout "You forced me to do this" after being beaten to a pulp, and then finally release his most powerful ability.

The reason why he has been able to sit firmly on the throne of the mercenary king for so many years is that he fights like a lion against a rabbit, using all his strength.

Even if he was dealing with an unknown person, he would kill him with all his strength, not to mention the three main fighting forces on the edge.

In just a moment, the energy core in Zhou Hannian's body began to riot, and the plasma formed by the tremendous energy materialized and burned throughout his body, interweaving a dazzling azure glow. In the blink of an eye, the ground was burned black, and the surrounding temperature became extremely hot.

Third gear overload!

"Dang!!!" Zhou Hannian's prosthetic black blade instantly hit Dongdong's dragon steel baseball bat, not only stopping the swift attack, but also making the remaining force so fierce that it was difficult to resist.

Dongdong felt his hands go numb the moment they made contact, and his arm joints crackled under the heavy pressure. He could not withstand the huge force and flew backwards, hitting the ground and leaving a ditch of more than ten meters before he stopped.

This blow directly broke many components of Dongdong's body. Blood kept flowing out of his mouth and nose, making him look very embarrassed.

Moreover, in that brief contact just now, the high-temperature plasma around Zhou Hannian actually burned the dragon steel baseball bat as hot as a branding iron, scorching her hand.

Nuo Bai's attack was almost synchronized with Dong Dong. The Tang sword penetrated the sound barrier and caused a sonic boom. The supersonic slash raised dust and gravel all over the sky, and went straight to Zhou Hannian's energy supply core.

However, after Zhou Hannian knocked Dongdong away, he almost simultaneously responded to the attack from Nuobai behind him. The black blade moved in response and violently hit the Tang sword with an absolutely precise trajectory.

"Dang!!!" The huge force of the third gear overload completely overcame the burning blood. The impact force caused Nuo Bai's arms to burst with blood. He flew out like a kite with a broken string and hit the stone wall, leaving a hideous blood mark.

After knocking over the two men in an instant, a heavy pressure rose from behind Zhou Hannian. He saw Su Mo's wrist flashing with silver light like moonlight, and he was slashing towards him at full speed.

It turned out that Dongdong and Nuobai were not the main attackers just now. One of them relied on her physical endurance, and the other relied on the powerful recovery ability of her blood code. They attacked Zhou Hannian head-on in order to create this fleeting opportunity for Su Mo.

Su Mo and his two companions cooperated very skillfully, and their timing could only be described as perfect.

Zhou Hannian intercepted Dongdong and Nuobai one after another. Now it was too late to dodge even with his speed. He could only rely on the black blade to block.

"Huh?" However, at this moment, he suddenly found something wrong.

Driven by his powerful fighting instinct, Zhou Hannian changed his tactics instantly, slashing and blocking at the same time, and the black blade in his hand brushed against Su Mo's Yueyin Arm Blade from the side.

The sharp edge of the Yueyin Arm Blade could cut through iron like mud, but the side of the blade did not have that terrifying cutting power. This side attack directly deviated its attack trajectory.

Although the Yueyin Arm Blade still cut off a small piece of the prosthetic black blade, it could no longer harm Zhou Hannian's body.

When the two sides were fighting, Zhou Hannian showed more skilled fighting skills. He took advantage of the physical inertia and stepped forward again to punch Su Mo in the heart. The huge impact force caused the air to ripple like water.

Even though he had the Crazy Skeleton Blood Code, which was known for its defensive power, the power of the third gear overload was still too strong. This punch directly caused Su Mo to vomit blood, and he staggered more than ten steps before he could stand firm.

He wiped the black blood from the corner of his lips, swung the Moon Hidden Arm Blade, and murmured, "What a pity."

Even the knowledgeable Zhou Hannian was stunned by the scene before him, frowning tightly: "This is a prosthetic weapon. You have a prosthetic in your body? Aren't you a carrier of the Crazy Skeleton Blood Code?"

Of course, there was no way Su Mo would foolishly introduce his abilities to the other party at this time. That was a stupid behavior in anime. He just got ready to meet the enemy.

Dongdong and Nuobai also continued to move closer and spread out their formation, preparing to launch a second round of offensive.

In Zhou Hannian's eyes at this moment, Dongdong and Nuobai were no longer important. From the previous round of fighting, he had already figured out the strengths of these two people. Perhaps they should not be underestimated, but together they were definitely not his opponents.

But Sumer's situation was a little too strange.

The three major power systems of blood code, prosthetics, and spiritual brain are incompatible with each other. This is something that has been repeatedly verified through countless experiments over the past hundred years. Just like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, it has become an axiom.

But now he saw with his own eyes that the axiom that had been verified countless times was actually wrong? !

How can a person possess both a blood code and a prosthetic body? !

Even for an experienced mercenary king, this scene was completely beyond his comprehension.

However, faced with this strange scene, what Zhou Hannian felt was not fear and dread, but a long-lost excitement.

To be honest, the battles between extraordinary people are really boring these days.

Although there are many different kinds of supernatural abilities, after more than a hundred years of development, even the most unpopular abilities have become widely known, and their strengths and weaknesses have been clearly analyzed.

Especially for a strong man of Zhou Hannian's level, in the process of fighting his way up from the bottom to the king of mercenaries, what kind of enemies has he not encountered?

To put it bluntly, sometimes he doesn't even need to fight when facing the enemy. He can tell who has a greater chance of winning with just a little judgment. He can even simulate in his mind how to win or lose. His combat has become a bit formulaic.

But this was the first time I encountered an "unknown" enemy like Sumer.

Zhou Hannian narrowed his eyes and said, "Captain Su, you and I are both the heads of the mercenary group. If you want to replace me, you must have the corresponding domineering power. How about it, do you dare to have a fair one-on-one fight?"

Dongdong cursed first: "Your dad, what era is it? You still want to fight alone?!"

But who would have thought that Su Mo thought for a while and said, "Dongdong, Nuobai, you retreat."

Nuo Bai looked at him in confusion.

Dongdong also questioned: "Boss?"

Su Mo: "Stand back, I'll fight him one on one."

Dongdong wanted to say something, but Nuobai gestured to stop her. Then he stared at Zhou Hannian to prevent him from taking advantage of the opportunity to attack him, and at the same time stepped back.

Dongdong had no choice. Since Su Mo had made up his mind, she could only retreat.

Seeing that Dongdong and Nuobai had really pulled a long distance apart, Zhou Hannian nodded slightly and looked at Su Mo with sparkling eyes: "Very good, you are a real man. Even if you die in my hands today, I will remember you for the rest of my life."

Su Mo: "Thank you so much, I'm not planning on dying yet."

After he finished speaking, Su Mo's Crazy Skeleton Blood Code ability was fully activated. A large number of Crazy Skeleton bones broke out of his body, rubbing against each other as they grew, making a twisted and squeezing sound, forming a solid armor around his body.

Immediately afterwards, he rushed towards Zhou Hannian from the front.

Faced with this reckless charge, Zhou Hannian neither dodged nor retreated, but attacked from the front.

"Boom--" The moment the two came into contact, the rapidly compressed air exploded, forming a turbulent flow around them.

The power of the third gear overload was so strong that Su Mo's mad skeleton was instantly pinned down, and the strong bones at the contact surface couldn't even withstand the heavy pressure and exploded.

Just as Zhou Hannian was about to crush Su Mo's mad skeleton and bones and directly attack his body, his prosthetic body keenly sensed the vibration coming from the ground.

Oh, so you're pretending to attack head-on, but in fact you're secretly splitting up the Crazy Skeletons and sending them underground, and then preparing to launch a surprise attack from underground?

It's a very clever move, but it's a pity that I've seen it too many times before.

If the opponent is a normal Crazy Skeleton blood code carrier, this is probably what will be planned.

But in the case of Su Mo, Zhou Hannian even calculated his next step.

The Crazy Skeleton Strong Bones coming from underground must be a feint. This kid may have another trick up his sleeve.

"Boom!" The moment the mad skeleton's strong bones pierced the ground, Zhou Hannian crushed them with explosive force, and then his body immediately flashed to the side.

Sure enough, at that moment, Yueyin's arm blade had already slashed at him from the front.

This attack was easily avoided by Zhou Hannian, who had predicted it.

Su Mo's eyes were suddenly filled with astonishment.

Obviously, he didn't expect that he had hidden moves within his moves, and three moves in a row were completely seen through.

The offensive momentum could no longer be stopped, which was a complete death sentence for him.

After Zhou Hannian dodged Yueyin's arm blade, he suddenly jumped up, and the black blade slashed towards Su Mo at an unavoidable speed.

"Puchi!" Under the huge force, even with the Crazy Skeleton Blood Code, Su Mo could not withstand this full-strength slash. His body broke into two and fell to the ground motionless.

Zhou Hannian took a long breath and then exhaled.

ended.

Although he was excited for a while, Su Mo was obviously still too immature.

If he continues to grow stronger, he will become a terrifying existence in time.

But the gap in experience, coupled with the recklessness of agreeing to a one-on-one match, cost this promising seed his life.

Zhou Hannian calmed himself down and looked at Dongdong and Nuobai in the distance.

He wanted to persuade them to surrender and give the two young men a chance to live.

After all, they were just following Su Mo's lead, and even according to legal terms, they would only be considered "accomplices" if they were caught.

What's more, Su Mo is dead now. If they fight against me with just the two of them, they will only die.

If they surrender and voluntarily accept the ultimate insurance, given their potential, Zhao Yiming should not find it too difficult.

However, at this moment, the situation was completely different from what Zhou Hannian had expected.

Logically speaking, since Su Mo was beaten to death, these two people should have lost control of their emotions, or at worst just stood there at a loss.

But not.

Their expressions did not change at all; they just looked at him silently.

Without any warning, Zhou Hannian felt his vision shaking violently.

This was not because the ground was shaking. His prosthetic system could feel it. The ground was not reacting at all at this time.

It was a illogical shaking, as if the entire material world was collapsing and falling into a turbulent flow of nothingness.

"Hu——" Zhou Hannian took a deep breath, and his consciousness seemed to wake up from a nightmare. He saw everything around him clearly again. It was still the wasteland, nothing had changed.

Even Sumer hadn't changed.

Su Mo, who should have been killed by him, was standing in front of him intact.

Furthermore, in those eyes, a strange energy was condensing into a vortex that kept emerging.

"Phantom Blood Code?!" Zhou Hannian identified this power almost instantly.

But he was still extremely shocked: "Multiple blood codes. How is that possible?!"

In fact, under normal circumstances, people who have implanted prosthetics are very strong against people who carry the phantom blood code.

Because the person who has been implanted with the prosthesis must have electronic countermeasure components in his body, they can destroy the special brain waves formed by the illusion blood code, weakening or invalidating the illusion.

If Zhou Hannian knew that he would have to face the Phantom Blood Code, he would have maxed out the power of the electronic countermeasure components and would not have given it any chance at all.

But the situation was too unexpected.

He thought it was outrageous enough that Su Mo could use both his prosthetic body and blood code at the same time.

I didn’t expect that he could have multiple blood codes at the same time!

Another axiom that has been proven countless times over the past hundred years has been shattered!

At this time, Zhou Hannian saw Su Mo confronting him head-on, while Dongdong and Nuobai were still watching the fight from a distance.

But he knew that in the face of the phantom blood code, vision was absolutely unreliable.

Even though he activated the electronic countermeasure component immediately after being shocked, he was able to crack the influence of the phantom blood code in the first place.

But it's still a step too late.

"Boom boom! Nobai! Now!"
