Chapter 160: Su Ping Under Attack! A Life-Threatening Moment!

Chapter 160: Su Ping Under Attack! A Life-Threatening Moment!

The window of the 'Black Blood' car rolled down.

The night breeze blew away Su Ping's excitement and restlessness from the day.

Su Ping felt the different scenery from the daytime and couldn't help but smile.

Finally, the evolution was complete.

The evolution of the little paperman made Su Ping's confidence in the upcoming co-evolution with Little Qing soar to unprecedented heights.

If they could complete the evolution together, then during tomorrow's professional assessment, Su Ping would have more than enough confidence.

Although he didn't know what Qin Xiaoxue meant at the time, with this progress, his strength might reach an unimaginable level by the middle of next year's professional assessment.

Thinking of this, Su Ping grinned, feeling extremely satisfied, and his mood improved significantly.

"Fatty, how's my driving?" he asked the mechanical intelligence of the Black Blood.

"Amazing! Master, your growth rate is astonishing! You managed to increase your speed from twenty kilometers per hour to forty kilometers in such a short time! Look, the last bus is already catching up with you!"

"Hahaha, you have a good eye!"

Su Ping smiled triumphantly, then quickly eased off the accelerator pedal, feeling a bit nervous.

It was too fast, making his heart race.

"By the way, Fatty, why can't you merge with the awakened Mechanical Core like the others and combine with the mechanical body?"

On the car's screen, a cartoon image of a big-headed doll appeared, which was the virtual image of the Mechanical Core Fatty. It shook its head, "Fatty doesn't know either. Maybe my core material is a bit different from the Golden Elemental Heart. But it's okay, Fatty can still serve you in the car!

Besides, this is also good, so I don't have to fight. Fatty hates fighting!"

Su Ping smiled slightly, "Hehe, Fatty doesn't like fighting?"

"Yes, Fatty is scared of pain."

Su Ping was taken aback, "Can a Mechanical Core feel pain?"

"Of course!"

The virtual character on the car's screen looked terrified, "It's because merging with the mechanical body is painful that Fatty can't do it!"

Merging with the mechanical body is painful?

Su Ping scratched his head.

Is it that painful? He didn't remember Dong Muchun mentioning this aspect.

He did know very little about mechanical beasts and related matters.

When he had time, he could ask Dong Muchun if the Mechanical Core was afraid of the pain of merging with the mechanical body.

However, just as Su Ping was distracted, he suddenly froze.

At that moment, Fatty's voice sounded from inside the car, "Hey, master, there's someone ahead, step on the brakes!"

"Damn!"

Then, Su Ping slammed his foot on the accelerator.

Instantly, the Black Blood accelerated from zero to a hundred kilometers per hour in 0.9 seconds.

Fortunately, this wasn't an ordinary sports car but an intelligent one.

Fatty noticed that the speed not only didn't decrease but also forced the car to brake during the brief moment of acceleration.

'Screeeech...'

The friction between the tires and the ground left a ten-meter-long skid mark on the struggle and redemption.

Su Ping quickly blinked, still feeling nervous, and looked speechlessly at the figure not far away.

This figure seemed to be stunned by the sudden acceleration, standing frozen in place.

Su Ping felt helpless.

It was late at night, and on this suburban highway, there was no one in sight, not even a ghost. Suddenly, someone appeared out of nowhere, which was unbearable.

However, the person in front of him seemed to be scared stiff by the sudden acceleration and remained motionless.

Su Ping knew that his driving skills were not up to par.

Indeed, one should not be too proud.

When one becomes proud, they lose their sense of self.

Su Ping reflected inwardly, then quickly got out of the car and approached the person, "Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

However, as the figure turned its gaze towards him, Su Ping felt a sensation he had never experienced before.

It was as if he was back in school, looking at the Iron Thorn Summit, a pet beast at the peak of the Overlord rank that had been captured from the wild and kept behind a reinforced glass wall.

When the Iron Thorn Summit stared at him with its cold triangular eyes, Su Ping felt his strength being sapped away.

His biological instinct told him that if this creature pounced on him, he would surely die.

Fortunately, there was a reinforced glass wall between them that time, but this time, there was no barrier between him and the person before him. In an instant, two lights flashed simultaneously.

The paper man and the figure appeared almost simultaneously on the dark street.

Su Ping quickly took a step back, finally seeing what had appeared before him.

It was an evolved form of an iron-armed ape.

Steel Arm Ape.

Su Ping was quite familiar with iron-armed apes.

During the legion sparring matches, there was a legion that specialized in evolving iron-armed apes.

The evolved form was the Mighty King Kong Ape, a powerful pet beast that had reached the Sovereign rank.

Fortunately, this evolved iron-armed ape was only a Steel Arm Ape.

As a standard evolved form of the iron-armed ape, the Steel Arm Ape had only slightly enhanced its strength.

Still, Su Ping's pupils constricted in apprehension at the sight of this ape.

It was a massive ape, standing as tall as a grown man.

Its dark gray steel arms were thicker than an adult man's waist, indicating the immense power it possessed.

"Who are you?" Su Ping asked.

However, it was clear that neither the Steel Arm Ape nor its owner would answer at this moment.

The ground seemed to tremble as the Steel Arm Ape moved, charging towards Su Ping like a tank!

Fortunately, Su Ping realized that although this Steel Arm Ape was undoubtedly an adult, it was also an Overlord Rank.

However, its level should be between Overlord First Rank and Overlord Third Rank.

Moreover, it was evident that this assassin's strength was quite average.

After summoning its main battle companion beast, a Steel Arm Ape, he didn't continue summoning other companion beasts to deliver a fatal blow to Su Ping.

This undoubtedly gave Su Ping some breathing room.

And... an opportunity to counterattack!

Little Paperman looked at the robust yet incredibly fast Steel Arm Ape, and without much thought, his cheeks instantly transformed into that familiar A shape.

Su Ping had complained about Little Paperman's taste countless times before.

But at this moment, seeing that face, he felt a sense of security he couldn't quite explain.

However, without hesitation, another beam of light shone.

Little Qing, who hadn't appeared for a long time, also emerged.

Little Qing's strength had improved by one rank when he previously broke through to Elite Sixth Rank, and now, he had reached Elite Fourth Rank.

Although he was far from catching up to Little Paperman Qian Yi, who had completed his evolution and reached Elite Ninth Rank, he was still formidable.

Moreover, the Toxic Attribute, being an unpredictable attribute, could sometimes play a crucial role, even if the rank was low.

This was the case at this moment.

Little Qing almost immediately understood what was happening and let out a low, wolf-like howl.

Purple-blue vines appeared out of thin air.

Although they only slightly hindered the Steel Arm Ape, they left a few shallow wounds on its fur!

But Little Qing quickly responded under Su Ping's command and turned his emerald green eyes towards the man in the black windbreaker.

The man seemed to realize something and let out a disdainful laugh, then he also roared, a sound that didn't seem human. His muscles bulged, and he instantly became extremely muscular!

The Beastmaster's special talent, 'Strength Sharing'!

This talent allows the Beastmaster to share the strength and stamina of their companion beast, and their own trained stamina and strength can be fed back to the companion beast.

It's a very practical talent, suitable for Beastmasters who like to pump iron and companion beasts with strength and stamina!

This talent enables Beastmasters to temporarily match the combat power of their companion beasts!

Little Qing had just pounced forward when he was directly smashed away by the Beastmaster's punch.

Fortunately, he only needed a moment to recover, and Little Qing stood up.

The next moment, a giant flower bloomed in the field, and countless intertwining vines formed a dense wall of toxic gas.

However, Su Ping didn't pay attention to this; he didn't even go to Little Paperman's battlefield. Instead, he quickly took out his phone and made a call.

It was none other than Dong Muchun.

The call was answered immediately.

Dong Muchun's voice on the other end was chaotic, as if she was at a banquet.

When Dong Muchun received Su Ping's call, a seductive smile hung in her eyes, but as soon as the call connected, that smile vanished completely!

"I'm under attack. I'm about ten kilometers west of Lingxi River Station."

The voice on the call had barely finished speaking when it was abruptly cut off.

Dong Muchun's eyes revealed a look of unimaginable terror and fury. Without hesitation, while the surrounding company groups' executives were still reacting, Cloud Cherry instantly enveloped her entire body.

Amidst everyone's confusion, the jet's tail flame burst out of the window, shattering it, and soared into the sky.

Su Ping took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.

Now, time had started to work in his favor.

So, he didn't need to rush.

Moreover, from the current situation, it seemed to have stabilized for the time being.

Although the Beastmaster had formidable strength, breaking through Little Qing's toxic gas defense line would be challenging.

Most importantly, Qian Yi was holding his ground!

Yes, even against an Overlord Rank Steel Arm Ape, Qian Yi not only blocked it but was even dominating the fight!

What could a gap in realm do? At this moment, Su Ping finally witnessed Qian Yi's combat power.

After evolving into a Paper Immortal Swordsman, Qian Yi didn't gain any damaging skills, but his mutated Sword Heart and Flying Immortal effect were exceptional.

Among Overlord Rank companion beasts, his combat power was absolutely outrageous!

Moreover, although he didn't obtain any damaging skills, the two sword techniques he created were the perfect combat skills for him!

Boom! Boom!

The continuous thunderous roars echoed.

Not only did the Steel Arm Ape fail to touch Little Paperman, but its body also bore several charred sword marks in addition to the few superficial wounds inflicted by Little Qing's toxic vines.

Undoubtedly, the damage from these sword marks far surpassed that of Little Qing's toxic vines!

This almost made the Steel Arm Ape's eyes turn red.

However, not only couldn't he touch Little Paperman, but Little Paperman's Flying Immortal effect was also a bane for physical companion beasts.

Just as element-transformed companion beasts were a bane for physical companion beasts.

This kind of bane often allowed one to ignore a portion of the realm gap.

However, something happened that Su Ping never could have imagined.

As if sensing the stalemate, the Beastmaster in the black windbreaker commanded, and the Steel Arm Ape directly abandoned Qian Yi.

Ignoring Qian Yi's swift attacks, the Steel Arm Ape charged towards Su Ping, its sturdy arms now bearing several deep, charred wounds, visible to the bone.

Su Ping's heart chilled.

Who was this person who wanted to put him in such a dire situation?

In the blink of an eye, Su Ping thought of Mu Yu from earlier that day.

But how dare he?

This is Longguo!

Su Ping's anger was futile; this was truly a matter of life and death.

However, you can always trust Qian Yi.

After evolving, the Paperman Qianyi's face under the straw hat instantly transformed into a 3 of diamonds.

Three long swords were drawn simultaneously.

The Wind Sword pierced the chest, and the Thunder and Fire Swords were wielded together. At the same time, a dazzling sword aura erupted from Paperman Qianyi's body!

Mutation · Sword Heart!

The effect of the following sword skills could be doubled! Undoubtedly, this was Paperman Qianyi's true hidden killing move!

Qian Yi Cyclone!

In an instant, Qian Yi, spinning, was like a giant top wielding the power of thunder and fire behind the Steel Arm Ape.

The sharp blades of the two Paper Swords seemed to shred everything around into a mess.

Including the Steel Arm Ape!

Even though it had reached the Overlord Rank, at this moment, its running speed was significantly reduced.

As Qian Yi approached, Paperman Qianyi came closer and closer! Finally, the Steel Arm Ape stumbled, then suddenly flew towards Qian Yi!

It was like a piece of fresh meat thrown into a high-speed blender.

A large amount of blood and shattered flesh splattered from the sword's edge!

"Ow!"

The painful wail rang out in the dark night sky, and in the first moment it began, it abruptly stopped!

The Steel Arm Ape's head, shredded by the three swords of thunder, fire, and wind, flew into the sky.

The spinning Paperman Qianyi's speed gradually slowed down.

The previous 3 of diamonds face transformed back into a 2D face:

(((φ(◎ロ◎;)φ)))



Looking at the dizzy Paperman Qianyi, this time, Paperman Qianyi's silver-gray body was stained red with the blood and flesh of the Steel Arm Ape beneath it.

There was an extremely unique sense of contrast.

The Companion Beast had died!

This was Paperman Qianyi's first true kill.

It was also Su Ping's first true kill!

Su Ping turned to look at the man in the black combat suit.

As expected.

The man's face turned extremely pale, and blood flowed from his seven orifices.

This was the price of a Soul Contract Beast's death.

Even if the Beastmaster didn't die, their soul would be severely damaged!

However, there was not a trace of pity in Su Ping's eyes.

Instead, they became even colder than before.

However, at this moment, he suddenly realized.

The originally almost insane man suddenly raised his head, and on his scarred face, a sinister smile appeared.

Su Ping's heart suddenly surged with a feeling that was even more heart-pounding than before, as if he understood something, and almost at the fastest speed, he directly recalled Little Qing and Paperman Qianyi back into the Beastmaster's Space.

However, it was clear that the man noticed his actions, but he wasn't in a hurry at all; instead, he directly opened the combat suit!

As expected, this guy had a mechanical countdown timer attached to his body.

This was undoubtedly a mechanical weapon!

They had actually used a mechanical weapon!

They were crazy, damn it, where did this mastermind find such a lunatic?

Was this suicidal attack not afraid of causing a big stir?

It was obvious.

At this moment, the man, whose face was now entirely covered in blood, looked at the finally panicked Su Ping with a sense of enjoyment, because the timer on the stopwatch still had five seconds left!

In these five seconds, it was obviously impossible for Su Ping to escape.

However, just as Su Ping's thoughts were racing, a light shone.

It was his Big Toy:

Black Blood!

A light flashed rapidly on Black Blood.

It seemed to want to attract Su Ping's attention to the greatest extent.

Undoubtedly, it succeeded, or rather, Fatty did.

Su Ping flew towards the already open car door and, in an awkward posture, directly flopped onto the cockpit!

"Master, initiate the dangerous trump card, spatial teleportation ability, I have selected the nearest hospital location for you! Farewell, Master!"

Fatty's voice, the car's intelligent system, was still so familiar,

Just like ten minutes ago when Su Ping was chatting with it.

Amidst the liveliness, there was an indescribable sense of agility.

Su Ping's heart was completely lost.

A matter of life and death!

This was truly a matter of life and death.

He had originally thought that the spatial teleportation ability set up by Dong Muchun had no meaning.

But now, it seemed to have saved his life at this moment.

However, Su Ping quickly reacted:

"Fatty, where are you and Black Blood?"

But before he could get an answer, a few seconds was too short a time.

Everything in front of his eyes became blurry.

These were the ripples and vortices of space.

The previous highway scene under the night slowly disappeared in the ripples.

Instead, he appeared in a busy lobby.

But Su Ping was stunned.

Because in the last moment of spatial teleportation, at the other end of the rippling world.

An incomparable thunderous roar erupted in the not-too-distant distance.

The boundless firelight filled the entire field of vision at that end of space.

And in the next moment, all of this, including the sound, disappeared.

Su Ping looked at the hospital's lobby, feeling a bit lost for a moment.

He still maintained the posture of flopping onto the cockpit.

The young man who suddenly appeared here was looked at curiously by the people in the lobby, who were unsure of what was happening.

But Su Ping didn't care at all; his gaze was fixed on the mechanical core that had said it was most afraid of pain,

The intelligent life that said it could serve its master in the car,

Fatty.

It seemed to have been shattered along with the supercar in that explosion.
