Resurrection Empire

Chapter 212: A Promise Worth Its Weight in Gold The New Unknown_2


However, he utilized a curved turn, decomposing the vertical acceleration into centrifugal acceleration as much as possible, maximizing his speed advantage.

This was a perfect tactic developed by Ren Zhong after multiple encounters with the Butcher, based on his own advantages.

So you think you're fast?

I'm faster than you!

Are you good at changing direction?

No matter how you change directions, you can't catch up with my absolute speed.

The only thing you'll ever reach is my blade!

Nevertheless, the Butcher remained unflustered, wielding his long cable weapon tightly and impermeably.

The Butcher knew that his specially made long cable had a material advantage.

He believed that with such intense collisions, Ren Zhong's weapon wouldn't hold out for long.

The professional commentator in charge of the live explanation, Xiao Xingyue, reached the same judgment.

She said during the broadcast: "Although Ren Zhong is currently completely taking the lead, the Cold-blooded Butcher has long been famous. His personal weapon is even military-specialized, Ren Zhong cannot…"

Fifteen minutes later, something unexpected happened.

The Butcher's long cable broke first.

Although Ren Zhong's Corrosive Blade also suffered severe damage, he swiftly switched equipment.

He had already prepared the backup Ice Flame Giant Blade.

After integrating Alien Ore Evolutionary Metal, the self-repair ability of the Corrosive Blade, originating from Demon Infant Metal, greatly enhanced, allowing it to outlast the opponent's special long cable in a prolonged battle!

Ren Zhong's equipment was superior!

Although the Ice Flame Giant Blade's lethality on Armored Soldiers had decreased, it also had miraculous effects.

The Butcher not only failed to reverse the situation but also fell further into a disadvantage.

In the next instant, a missile blasted from Ren Zhong's back.

The missile didn't explode mid-air but instead disintegrated its shell and ignited afterward.

The dazzling intense light illuminated brighter than the blazing sun in the sky, so much that even Xiao Xingyue's optical camera could only see a completely white world.

Fortunately, there were still sound wave and electromagnetic scan models that could outline the silhouettes of Ren Zhong and the Butcher.

In the previous timeline, Ren Zhong used a Tracking Energy Weapon to shine into the Butcher's eyes.

This little trick caused some inconvenience to the opponent, but Ren Zhong was not satisfied with the effect.

This time he went a step further, using the Super Energy Light Bomb to create a sunlight-like brilliance.

Most of the genes used by the Butcher came from snake-type Ruined Beasts.

On Earth, while there are diurnal snakes, nocturnal and crepuscular snakes are more common.

The Butcher feared strong light!

At this moment, both Ren Zhong and the Butcher lost their optical vision.

But the other virtual modeling equipment in Ren Zhong's gear was more advanced.

The Butcher didn't have much high-tech configuration on him; after all, his core combat power lay solely in his physique.

This disparity aggressively erased the strength gap between the two.

Ren Zhong charged again, first increasing the power of the armor to sixty thousand kilowatts, surpassing the Fifth Level's peak limit of fifty thousand kilowatts!

Meanwhile, he activated his Sixth Sense and Pseudo-Time Intuition, attacking like a tidal wave, like a mountain collapse and sea eruption.

Three minutes later, the Butcher was finally struck hard in the back by the Ice Flame Giant Blade, flying forward.

The Anti-energy Armor on the Butcher's back exploded simultaneously, revealing the impact-resistant inner lining inside.

His two medium engines simultaneously frosted over, frozen brittle like ice blocks, then shattered into pieces with violent tremors.

There was an uproar among the crowd.

Xiao Xingyue was stunned, subconsciously muttering, "So strong! This equipment mastery, this ability to exploit flaws, this..."

Actually, by this time, the outcome was already predestined.

Ren Zhong was destined to win.

Ren Zhong pulled slightly away, "Giving you a chance, surrender."

Perhaps many people had died at the hands of the Cold-blooded Butcher, but in Ren Zhong's worldview, the Butcher didn't really do anything wrong; he was merely a tool created by the Mengdu Group for the Source Star Business Association.

Emotionally and logically, Ren Zhong wanted to give the opponent a right to choose.

But the Butcher, without hesitation, chose to refuse.

"Impossible!"

With a roar, his body suddenly swelled to three meters high, muscles bulging all over, emanating a sense of explosive power.

A metallic sheen emerged from the surface of his muscles.

Ren Zhong was well familiar with this state of his.

As an Armored Soldier, he had used drugs, a clear sign of Ruins Beastification.

This drug must have side effects.

Ren Zhong felt a sense of emotion.

Compared to the first time he faced the Cold-blooded Butcher, aside from the Brain Reaction Index, his other personal parameters hadn't improved much.

But now the one fighting with desperation induced by drugs had become the opponent.

"Since you are stubborn; don't blame me."

The Butcher laughed madly, jumped powerfully, soaring skyward, descending like a dark cloud.

Ren Zhong met him head-on again.

The Butcher finally dared to engage Ren Zhong head-on.

He swung his fists, bombarding Ren Zhong's Ice Flame Giant Blade with wild fury.

Ren Zhong advanced at times, retreated at others, as the long knife in his hand cleaved down like a chopping knife, hacking vehemently one strike after another.

The confrontation between the two was extremely fierce.

The entire venue was silent; no one dared to breathe audibly.

Even the host responsible for commentary, Xiao Xingyue, was no longer so dedicated, not speaking a word for a long time.

After a long while, when Ren Zhong finally pulled away again, retracting the severely damaged Ice Flame Giant Blade, then drew out the restored Corrosive Blade, Xiao Xingyue finally commented: "Now, the only thing that can restrain Ren Zhong is his physical stamina."

"But it's clear he hasn't reached his limit yet. The Butcher's medium engines in his armor are completely destroyed; his mobility has plummeted. If he doesn't surrender, only death awaits him."

This time, Xiao Xingyue's judgment was correct.

Just a few minutes later, Ren Zhong finally seized a power gap in the Butcher's body, detonating the Air Burst Bomb, blasting him into the air.

The Butcher, without his medium engines, lost the capability to change direction mid-air.

Ren Zhong pursued downward fiercely, the Corrosive Blade swinging wildly, striking multiple times in a second.

Finally, after hacking repeatedly at the same spot, the energy shield within the Butcher was breached, his body was sliced in half!

Death!

Ren Zhong won, triumphantly and vigorously.

Just like when he first met the Butcher, relying on an overdose of Stimulants and Super Armor Frenzy Potion to win.

But this time, he didn't use any drugs, yet held the upper hand throughout, not giving the opponent even the slightest chance to catch his breath.

He also gave the opponent the choice to surrender and live.

The opponent chose to risk everything with drugs but still suffered a crushing defeat.

He won openly and honorably, indisputably.

...

After speaking lines with Xiao Xingyue, Ren Zhong still hovered quietly in the air, watching the crowd rushing toward him.

He laughed.

The same time, the same people, a different outcome.

I made it.

In the next second, Zheng Tian, Chen Hanyu, Ju Qingmeng, Yujin, Wen Lei, Bai Feng, Ou Youning, and others stood before him, faces flushed.

Ren Zhong slowly landed, saying with a smile, "See. Just a motley crew. I said I'd only give him two choices, surrender or die. He chose death."

Ren Zhong looked toward the Ma Family father and daughter in the distance again.

He didn't speak, but Ma Dafu understood his gaze.

Ren Zhong was saying, "What I promise to do, I will always fulfill."

Ren Zhong looked again in the direction of Starfire Resources.

In the previous timeline, he did not die in Starfire Town.

This time he still did not die.

So he couldn't see the "giant fountain" composed of countless white filaments like Earth's magnetic field lines in the Underworld God's Eye View after death.

That "fountain" came from the Demon Infant Crystal Core.

This time, the memories of the people within the crystal core would be copied into the brain of the cancer baby.

What changes would that "fountain" bring?

This was a mystery Ren Zhong could not yet know, only waiting for the baby to give him and Sun Miao the answer.
