Chapter 9 The Noodle Factory
Chapter 9 The Noodle Factory
The decomposed metal particles were stored in the corresponding locations.
Wu Ou was quite satisfied with this ability.
With this ability, he will be able to directly strengthen his bones and skin with metal.
Unlike before, when they could only manipulate basic changes in bodily tissues.
"Once we get to the noodle factory, we'll find a chance to buy more."
According to his idea, using metal materials to strengthen his body, disguise himself as having other superpowers, or even go further and form a metal 'exoskeleton' skin armor, would maximize his combat power during the upcoming exploration of the ruins.
After all, until the civilization's flagship was completed, there were only about a hundred people on Earth who had reached the second level of strength. Perhaps some had died before that, but the total number was definitely not large.
He was confident that he could bring his strength to the highest level below level two.
Once we reach the universe, we can enjoy the benefits of civilization "advancement" and reaching level two will be a natural progression.
Nothing happened that night, and the next morning, there was no need to fish anymore.
The convoy continued its journey, and another peaceful day passed.
At this moment, not far from where the convoy was stationed, Wu Ou and Hu Meng, who had come to investigate, looked at each other and cautiously explored forward after seeing the cleared-out area.
Sure enough, there were two cars parked on the main road, which had been clearly cleared.
One was a truck, and the other was a bus.
On the roofs of both the trucks and buses, a distinct snowman could be seen.
Normally, such signs tend to attract birds, so after experiencing the consequences, drivers will try to remove any protruding decorations from their car roofs.
The fact that the other party has released this item can only mean one thing: they have power, and this item is some kind of "symbol" of them.
"So, Leng Yue and her group were still staying here on this day, then..."
Just as Wu Ou was judging in his mind whether Leng Yue and the others had dealt with the snow demon here, a gust of cold wind followed by a scream that seemed to shake the soul!
"I..." Hu Meng opened his mouth wide, trying to relieve the discomfort.
After all, this sonic attack carried a mental impact, which was quite uncomfortable for someone like him who was developing as a source energy warrior.
"What the hell is that noise!" He took a deep breath and frowned.
"It's a Snow Demon, a semi-energy-based mutated beast, possessing innate mental power and ice elemental abilities," Wu Ou explained simply.
"Oh, that sounds tough. That shout must have been painful to hear!"
Hu Meng couldn't help but look in the direction from which the sound came. Those who were fighting the snow demon over there must have been in even more pain if they had taken that hit at close range.
Inside the factory, the accumulated snow turned the interior of the building into an ice cave.
The dozen or so people, each wielding various weapons, gritted their teeth, but the expressions on their faces proved that they had also suffered from the mental sonic wave attack.
"superior!"
A voice rang in their minds, and then everyone proceeded according to plan, coordinating their attack on the snow demon that had been surrounded.
Having just used her "ultimate move," the Snow Demon's form has become much more ethereal.
Various weapons pierced through its body, making it even more ethereal; the only part that lit up was its core!
The woman, who hadn't made a move yet, kept her eyes fixed on the location of the crystal.
Beside her was a metal can about half a person's height, showing obvious signs of having been modified.
Just after the last person's attack pierced through the Snow Demon's body, its form was completely revealed. The crystal was as obvious as a speck of ink on a piece of white paper.
"Get down!"
Another command appeared in everyone's minds, and then the jar next to the woman flew directly to the snow demon's front.
"ah--!"
Another scream rang out, but this time it was clearly not as powerful as the last one; it was just a pure sonic attack.
Even though the Snow Fairy's core crystal was completely exposed after this attack, the jar was also broken.
boom!
Hearing the explosion, Hu Meng couldn't help but shudder.
"Damn! How powerful are the people inside?!"
If this power isn't due to supernatural abilities, then it can only be caused by an explosion from a firearm.
With that kind of power, they could destroy their car directly!
Based on the level before the disaster, it should at least be considered a 'cannon'!
He gritted his teeth. "Brother Wu, is this something we can interfere with?"
"Don't worry, you just hide first, I'll handle it."
After saying that, Wu Ou jumped up the external staircase to the second floor of the factory and climbed over the broken window.
"Jumping that high all at once, just how good is Brother Wu?" Hu Meng sighed, scratching his head, and quickly ran towards the gate.
Inside the factory, a look of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes as she looked at the crystal that was still 'floating' in mid-air.
However, a resolute glint then flashed in her eyes.
With a low growl, he strode towards the snow demon, ready to use his longsword to completely destroy its core and kill it!
But the next moment, a whooshing sound came, and the sword in my hand was hit in an instant.
The immense force shifted her center of gravity.
"Who!" She used the tip of her sword to support her body, and with her keen perception of mental energy, she still managed to catch the trajectory of the attack.
But the next moment, another whooshing sound rang out.
She instinctively swung her sword to defend, but found that although it was from the same direction, this time the target of the attack was not her, but the snow demon!
boom!
An explosion the size of a fist occurred at the core of the Snow Demon.
A mournful cry rang out, audible only to her, whose mental abilities were highly sensitive.
Then, the crystal fell from the sky and half-embedded in the snow on the ground.
Her eyes widened slightly, because she had seen what the thing that had just deflected her sword was.
One 'bullet'!
Bullets with this impact force are definitely not from a simple handgun!
With a leap, Wu Ou ignored the tense people and went straight to Leng Yue's side.
"Your sword strike just now destroyed the Snow Demon's core. All you'll get is an incomplete Source Crystal."
Leng Yue, the future "Ice and Snow Goddess" of the Dragon Kingdom, is actually a scientist specializing in spiritual energy.
It first gained prominence during the development of the ruins, and its initial fame was made by a "Frost Staff".
Later, after the source energy armor technology was discovered, he was one of the first people to complete his own unique version.
Having made a name for themselves, they naturally gained the attention of the Dragon Kingdom and received preferential treatment in terms of resources.
Unfortunately, after entering space, he went astray in the early stages and could only become a commander of a source energy mech team in the later stages.
"Thank you for reminding me, and thank you for your help." Leng Yue looked at the man in front of her; he was not carrying any firearms.
"Could it be a special ability?"
She wondered to herself.
At this moment, the other person extended their right hand and gave a polite smile.
"My name is Wu Ou, a superhuman, also known as a special evolved being."
Our team is just outside, heading towards the northern base.
"Would it be possible to stay here for the night?"
