The Ultimate Evolution

Sheyan already seized the giant man’s left hand as he spoke, then twisted it hard! The muscles on the giant man’s left arm swelled up as he screamed in fury, but his strength was clearly no match for Sheyan!

Though dazzling electricity burst out from all the bolts at his joints to attack Sheyan, Sheyan did not seem affected in the slightest. The giant man’s left arm could not escape the fate of being broken with a loud crack! He howled in pain, and slammed the giant hammer in his other hand down on Sheyan furiously!

“I only wanted you to salute me, but you’re trying to murder a General of the Empire?”

Sheyan’s gaze went cold. He grabbed the giant man’s right wrist, rammed into his body, and raised his fist.

There was an obvious phase of storing energy before Sheyan let his fist fly. Every muscle on his arm swelled abnormally, and his arm became so huge that it seemed like it would make him lose his balance anytime. The swollen arm sprang forward like a spring that was suddenly released after it had been compressed to the limit, crashing into the giant man’s chest with unimaginable speed!

The fierce blow made his chest sink in. Electric sparks leaked from the depression. Purple-coloured blood gushed out of the giant man’s mouth together with a plethora of mechanical parts. He quickly fell backwards, but before he could fall to the ground, he was caught by Sheyan again. Sheyan kicked his face hard!

“Learn to show some respect!”

The giant man screamed in agony, but Sheyan still stomped on his face repeatedly without mercy. Sheyan was not only stepping on a biochemical prototype, but also Arnold family’s pride, yet no one dared to stop him!

“This is for blocking my way!”

“This is for your greed!”

“This is for touching my armour!”

“…”

Sheyan had apparently held back a little because the stomping and yelling went on for nearly 20 seconds before the poor prototype died while spasming violently. Sheyan stood at the entrance of Arnold family’s flagship and smirked.

“Fine, keep hiding inside like a turtle. Let’s see if you can hide in there your whole life. I’m not moving an inch from this spot!”

Within a minute, a group of warriors came out from the flagship. Their positioning seemed disorderly, but they had actually blocked all of Sheyan’s attack routes. These warriors were not wearing armour, but a rather close-fitting combat suit that had a sheen on its surface. The joints of the combat suit seemed particularly thick, like the joints of centipedes, crabs, or other such arthropods.

These warriors were not especially muscular. Their builds were obviously more suited for speed and mobility. They were tall and lean, but the outlines of their muscles were still clearly visible on the surface of their bodies. No doubt they had great explosive strength.

They were all armed with a short blade, hung at the waist, and held a hybrid high-energy gun in their hands. These guns were embedded with rare energy crystals and could switch freely between energy mode and magazine mode, as well as between assault mode and sniper mode.

Next, an old man with a really gloomy face walked out of the flagship.

“Your stuff’s not here. Leave,” he told Sheyan coldly.

Sheyan stared at him sideways, then suddenly yelled, “State your military rank and status before you speak to me!”

Because he had a precedent of suddenly turning violent right after he spoke, the special force fighters immediately shrunk their defensive perimeter, released the safety locks of their guns, and aimed at him!

But although there were a few people of high status in the Arnold family contingent, they did not have anyone who’s military rank could outclass a Brigadier General, because only those who had withdrawn from the ranks of the Imperial Army would be trusted within their faction.

“Do you think these guns can stop me?” Sheyan grinned. “Naive!”

His movement may not be as fast as the energy beams from the guns, but the guns were operated by humans. Sheyan still acted slightly faster than the time it took these modified soldiers to execute the order and pull the triggers.

He once again charged into the midst of the enemies in the blink of an eye. A second later, a dark green cloud of smoke surrounded all of them. Sheyan moved freely and killed wantonly within the smoke cloud, while the enemies had to hold back in fear of hurting their comrades. The result was obvious.

“Thirty-one seconds… the Arnold family’s garrison troop, the Black Snake, wiped out in thirty-one seconds. As far as what we know, they’re the most elite troops of the Arnold family,” analysed the people under Prince Pombaru with barely concealed glee.

By the time the dark green smoke cloud dispersed, the one who remained standing was the demonic figure. Sheyan stared at the dark entrance of the warship in front of him and said, word by word, “Do you really want me to go in and retrieve it myself?”

Against this monster that had such a terrifying personal combat prowess, Colbert almost coughed up blood. Under normal circumstances, he would have a variety of ways to deal with this man. With a wave of his hand, he could mobilise ten or twenty space fighter jets and space tanks, and they would easily drive him away. If worse comes to worst, he could just use the weapons on the warships. Any weapon on the warships would be able to reduce him to cosmic dust!

But now, the ships’ energy supplies had been completely cut off, so those measures became mere wishful thinking. He, the first heir of the Arnold family, was actually being forced into such an embarrassing predicament! It was completely inconceivable!!

Sheyan smirked mockingly. “An heir of the Arnold family, and you don’t even have the guts to admit that you’ve taken my Major General’s Blood Armour? I might as well tell you this. It was the Noah Realm that told me the armour is here, and the Noah Realm won’t lie about this. I’ll now start counting down to 10. If you still don’t have the guts to come out when I’m done, I’ll go in and take it myself! Anything that happens afterwards is your own fault!”

At this time, a heated debate had started within the flagship. Colbert may be the first in line to inherit the family seat, but his old man was still alive, so he naturally did not have absolute authority. There were several elders within the flagship who were powerful enough to suppress him if they joined forces. One of them was remarking heatedly, “Coincidence? You expect us to believe that this is a coincidence? Everything that’s happened is obviously a trap laid down by Prince Pombaru and that traitor Mungo. First, they kidnapped young master Lucio to trigger the whole event. We naturally have to put the base on martial law to initiate a large scale search in response. That’s how we fell into Pombaru’s trap.”

“Now that our energy supplies are restricted, a monster suddenly came looking for us! And most importantly, the monster keeps using the Imperial Law against us, so we can’t do anything about him! He’s also a contestant sent by a Noah Realm – that’s the truly frightening thing. Even if he kills indiscriminately, it’ll be very difficult to use Imperial Law to constrain him because he’s someone who comes from the past. As long as he doesn’t step into the territory of the Empire, even the Emperor himself can do nothing to him!”

The elder’s main focus was obviously on “killing indiscriminately”. The one who led the Black Snake garrison guards outside just now was an elder loyal to Colbert, but after that….there was no “after that”!

Another elder added, “No one among us is afraid to die, but the sacrifice must be for a worthwhile purpose. Young master Colbert, is the Major General’s Blood Armour really that important to the General’s cause? Will it get us a hundred more warships, or the right to an extra galaxy? Is it worth our lives?”

This elder was actually one who reached his current position by supporting another heir, the sixth son, Arnold Fabian Witten, so of course he had no intention to die for Colbert’s sake here. He had gathered the other elders together on his side with a single argument!

These elders were on board as a secret move by the head of the family, the old General, to maintain control over his sons. He knew that familial bonds were thin and unreliable under the temptation of power, so he had long taken his own precautions.

In the end, Colbert had no choice but to hand over the Major General’s Blood Armour despite his utmost reluctance.

Having got what he wanted, Sheyan laughed out loud and walked away haughtily. When he reached the entrance, a space tank belonging to Mungo’s forces came to fetch him. Fire almost burst out of the eyes of everyone from the Arnold family when they saw the clearly visible marking on the space tank. This left no doubt as to Mungo’s role in this matter.

To put it bluntly, Mungo had pledged his allegiance!

Unfortunately, his allegiance was pledged to Prince Pombaru. Not only that, he had humiliated his old faction without holding back, which was undoubtedly extremely satisfying for his new superior.

Sheyan was very satisfied with the Major General’s Blood Armour. The full name of the armour was ‘Biological-Ion Hybrid Armour’. It used the latest metallic biological technology which incorporated his own genes into the armour. It had a metallic luster, excellent flexibility and had the same temperature as his body.

Once worn, the owner had to provide their DNA to the armour, because the armour would lock on to the owner’s gene and adjust itself accordingly. It would also gain a self-recovery ability like a human, thus making repair almost unnecessary. As long as it was given enough time and light, it would repair its own wounds. The wearer would feel like the armour was a part of their body!
