Holy Fist!

Chapter 480 Don't blame me, you forced me to do it!
Tianxia Federation, Chongshan Province.

Chongshan Province is located on the border between the northern and southern parts of the Tianxia Federation, with exactly half in the north and half in the south. The southern part of Chongshan Province connects with the northern part of Donghai Province. The straight-line distance between the provincial capitals of the two provinces exceeds 700 kilometers.

Pingshan City, University Town.

It's around 4:30 in the afternoon. The sun is still shining brightly, but there's already a hint of twilight about to fall. It's already autumn, and the roads are strewn with withered yellow leaves. A gentle breeze rustles the leaves as they move.

Chongshan Art Academy, a semi-open main campus, on a tree-lined path.

"beep."

The phone hangs up.

"Thank you, and thank you for your phones."

A pleasant young voice rang out, clear and bright.

"Ah, no...you're welcome."

Across the street, two girls raised their hands to answer the phone. They were clearly art students, youthful and beautiful. One looked like a cute girl next door, wearing a white floral dress, with fair skin and smooth black hair. The other wore a white sweater and white jeans, with long legs and a slim waist, and her hair was dyed burgundy. With her manicured nails and lip gloss, she looked like a cool and sophisticated woman.

At that moment, both of them subconsciously reached for their phones, but their eyes were involuntarily fixed on the young man before them. Handsome, incredibly handsome, even to the point of being described as beautiful. The young man was about 1.78 meters tall, and although he was only wearing ordinary white clothes, his slender figure made them look perfectly proportioned. His naturally long, silvery-white hair cascaded down his back like a waterfall, simply tied back with a black hairband, reflecting shimmering light.

He had delicate, androgynous features, with exceptionally sharp and handsome eyes. His gaze was misty and unpredictable, like a pair of eerie, cold moons.

A blend of feminine, icy nobility and a captivating, slightly intoxicating allure creates an irresistible attraction. Even television stars cannot compare.

The two girls saw the young man the moment they did.

An idea involuntarily arose in my mind at the same time.

"Can men be this beautiful?"

So much so that when the young man borrowed the phone to make a call, they handed it over without hesitation, and then instinctively took it back.

"Handsome guy, are you an art student?"

"Could I ask which class you're in?"

The cute-looking girl looked at the young man and asked a question.

"Sorry, I'm not."

Do I look like an art school student?

The white-haired youth shook his head in response.

"You're so beautiful, oh no, handsome."

"She has even more charisma than those celebrities in the entertainment industry."

The mature woman with burgundy hair next to me answered.

The young man was slightly taken aback.

He knew his hair had turned white during his escape, but how could his appearance have changed? He quickly borrowed a cell phone again.

In the reversed camera lens.

A strangely handsome young man gazed silently ahead. His sharp, piercing eyes held a mesmerizing, misty light, yet beneath it lay an extreme coldness.

It was a kind of indifference—indifference towards life, towards society, and even towards the world. It was as if he didn't care about anything, looking down on everyone.

Bai Tang looked at herself with a solemn expression.

"This is... the Heavenly General!"

In the process of gaining power and memories, he learned that he was the reincarnation of the Azure White General. He had entered this world to carry out the Machine Master's plan. However, Bai Tang could not accept this fact; he even had a fear that he was being slowly possessed and replaced by the Azure White General. So, after waking up at the Metal Council headquarters, Bai Tang chose to escape. Using a portion of the Azure White General's power he had obtained—a power that seemed to command all void metals—he managed to escape from the laboratory without anyone noticing.

At this moment, Bai Tang had only one thought.

He took his older brother Bai Xiao and grandparents and fled, no matter where they went.

"Handsome guy, handsome guy?"

"Could you tell me your name? By the way, could we add each other on Fetion?"

The two girls looked at Bai Tang in a daze and spoke up.

"Oh, sorry, I don't usually use Fetion."

"Thank you all. I have to go now. Thank you."

Bai Tang said politely, then quickly left the art academy.

He was now completely alone, without any electronic devices, to avoid being tracked by the Metal Council. From noon until now, Bai Tang had been running at breakneck speed, relying on the pale metal mech he was wielding. Several hours had passed, and he had arrived near the capital of Chongshan Province.

It is neither too close nor too far from Huaishui City, Nanjiang Province.

"I hope my brother will listen to me and go back to his hometown to wait for me."

Bai Tang felt a little worried.

He quickly left the university town and arrived in the suburbs of Pingshan City.

On a straight, black highway stretching into the distance, a white figure slowly crossed the guardrail, entered the forest, and gradually disappeared.

at the same time.

Not far away, there is a highway connecting the city to the suburbs.

A convoy of silver-white vehicles was accelerating, reaching speeds of 200 kilometers per hour. Inside, agile figures in silver-white combat suits sat upright, communicating with their teammates in other vehicles via miniature tactical earpieces on their helmets. Sometimes, they would receive orders from headquarters.

"Drip drip!"

"The Metal Council's highest decision-making body has issued an order: all branches and major corporations must capture Bai Tang! He appeared in the university town of Pingshan City ten minutes ago and is now heading towards the suburbs! All mecha squads along the route are poised to intercept Bai Tang. Remember, the Metal Council's highest decision-making body needs him alive; do not kill or harm him..."

The instructions from the Chongshan Provincial Metal Council branch came through the headset.

"understand!"

The captains of the various mecha squads responded one after another.

……

It's about five o'clock in the afternoon.

The twilight sky was ablaze with crimson light as the sun sank below the horizon. A faint twilight hue had already begun to spread across the clouds, and the wind carried a cool breeze.

"call out!"

It's less than half a mile from the side of the road.

A mysterious mech was skimming low in the air, its slender form and elegant silhouette resembling a work of art crafted from silvery-white mirrors. It faintly shimmered with a crystal-like luster, and terrifying energy surged beneath it, resonating strangely with the void metal, poised to unleash a powerful attack at any moment.

Above the mecha's head, a slowly rotating halo floated in the air.

As you can see, while this mecha is exceptionally impressive, the pilot seems somewhat inexperienced. The mecha moves with the ease of an extension of one's own body, but the pilot appears hesitant and timid, resulting in a relatively slow low-altitude flight. Fortunately, however, Bai Tang is gradually gaining proficiency, as if she is slowly recalling her memories.

The "Pale Reaper" is getting faster and faster, and more and more adept at handling things.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Suddenly, from the left, five black mechs flew in wildly, their blue and white particle beams trailing behind them, leaving behind elegant trajectories.

"Damn it, it's you guys again!"

Bai Tang frowned deeply, and the mecha accelerated again. He had already encountered one such black mecha squad while flying towards Nanjiang Province. Bai Tang risked losing control, unleashing a surge of energy, and the Pale Death Scythe shot out at top speed, managing to shake them off. However, only a dozen minutes later, another black mecha squad intercepted him from the side.

"My location has been exposed."

Clad in his silver-white mecha, he hesitated slightly, but ultimately decided to unleash another burst of energy, hoping to shake off the squad. However, in that instant of Bai Tang's thought, the entire squad launched their attack.

"Buzz buzz buzz!" Instantly, bursts of expanding white particle flames exploded on the spot.

At the same time, three black mechs, their red pupils flashing between their brows, locked onto Bai Tang. With a series of crisp mechanical beeps, three crimson energy beams erupted, unleashing spiraling waves of flame. Wherever they passed, trees ignited, the ground scorched, and the air distorted.

"Boom! Boom!"

Bai Tang hurriedly dodged, but only managed to avoid one strike; his chest and shoulder were still hit. Golden and red sparks burst forth, scattering like sparks from iron. His flight was interrupted, and he flew diagonally nearly a hundred meters before crashing heavily into a large, lush tree.

With a snap, the tree broke, scattering wood chips everywhere.

"Shhhhhh!"

Five black mechs, moving in perfect unison, flew over again, surrounding the silver-white mech. This mech squad was a formidable force, comprised entirely of Metal Knight-class fighters, the elite of the Black Mountain Corporation. They were normally deployed only once a year, but this time they were specifically sent to intercept Bai Tang.

"High-frequency oscillating current network!"

The captain gave the order.

Instantly, both black mechs launched their right arms simultaneously. Two large, dark nets flew out wildly, their surfaces crackling with lightning. Upon landing, extremely intense shockwaves spread outwards.

The combination of the two can quickly render the mech unable to resist.

However, below the two large nets.

The trees have been set ablaze, burning fiercely, and the flames are spreading.

The silver-white mech remained standing, displaying incredible defensive capabilities, seemingly unaffected. The black mech squad leader then issued another order, his deep voice echoing through the headset.

"Flare rays!"

"suppress!"

Instantly, from five directions, five mechs simultaneously locked onto Bai Tang within the black net, their five vertical pupils erupting with blazing flames. With a beep, several scorching rays struck Bai Tang simultaneously.

"Crash..."

Countless sparks burst forth, turning the surrounding area into a sea of ​​fire. Even the ground began to melt under the intense heat, resembling magma.

"Kakaka!"

Amidst the scorching flames, the moon-white mecha raised its arms, its feet already deeply embedded in the ground. Bai Tang gritted his teeth; he didn't know how to control the mecha in combat and had been passively taking hits from the start. Bai Tang could sense that his pale death god mecha, though far from its full potential, still contained terrifying power, which, if he could unleash, would surely allow him to save himself.

"Buzz!"

The Black Squad noticed Bai Tang's resistance. Five red rays descended from the sky, their energy growing increasingly violent and their temperature increasingly scorching. They were already blasting most of Bai Tang's body into the ground, almost burying his head.

"You forced me!"

A dangerous glint flashed in Bai Tang's eyes, completely different from his usual self. Instantly, the Pale Death God soared into the sky, tearing through two large nets made of a special, tough material with a sickening sound. He actually withstood five metal knight-level solar flares, hovering in mid-air.

"Crash la la la..."

On its back, a massive, surging stream of silver particles continuously extended and coalesced, forming a pair of wide wings with a wingspan of ten meters.

Pale, cold, and desolate!

"Get out of my way!"

Bai Tang roared, his pale wings flapping suddenly, instantly boosting his speed and creating a massive sonic boom. With a deafening roar, a blurry silver-white figure swept past between the two black mechs blocking his path from the south. The next second, BOOM! The powerful mechs were severed in half, splitting into two parts, and both mechs exploded, expanding into two balls of flame.

But the next second, the temperature of the blazing flames dropped rapidly, turning into pale, cold flames in the blink of an eye, spreading in all directions like frost.

A black mech arm nearby accidentally got stuck, letting out a scream. Luckily, the captain reacted quickly, severing the arm's left hand with a single strike, simultaneously discarding the longsword in its hand. In mid-air, a severed arm and a metal longsword were completely engulfed by flames, turning into a pool of liquid.

The pale liquid writhed, as if it were alive, twisting and eerily.

"This is……"

……

Half past five in the afternoon.

The border between Chong Son Province and Dong Hai Province.

A silvery-white afterimage streaked across a highway, its speed gradually slowing down. Inside the pale Death God's body, Bai Tang gasped for breath, cold sweat pouring down his face. He felt a slight stinging pain in his mind, a lingering effect of the attack he had just suffered.

"I just... killed two people."

"I……"

Bai Tang clenched her fists tightly and muttered to herself.

"Don't blame me, they insisted on blocking my way."

"So, I had no choice but to kill them. Don't blame me!"

"call out!"

The mech continued flying forward, covering another ten kilometers. In the distance lay the outskirts of a city, with occasional factories of varying sizes visible.

The white crane skimmed low in the sky, the twilight glow on the horizon growing ever stronger. The dim red light of the sunset was blocked by the buildings, casting large shadows.

In the distance, at the corner of a highway.

Bai Tang suddenly stopped moving forward, and the pale death mech hovered in mid-air.

"despair!"

A towering mech, easily five meters tall, emerged like a small mountain. Its entire body appeared to be made of obsidian, possessing a hard, imposing silhouette and gleaming with a powerful sheen. Behind it, jets of black, violent energy particles surged forth, forming a flowing cloak.

The mecha held a giant axe, its length equal to its own, engulfed in flames.

The top tier among Metal Knights.

Besides the Flying Upgrade, this is one of the most powerful mech suits in the Black Mountain Group.

Black Enma!

Bai Tang sensed a hint of danger and quickly turned around, wanting to retreat.

However, at some point...

Behind the highway, a sleek, sword-like purple mecha hovered silently in mid-air. Its aura was incredibly sharp, its surrounding structure exuding a sense of razor-sharpness, especially its slowly drooping arms, which resembled two divine blades. The slight curve seemed capable of slicing through alloy.

Purple Sword, Chairman of the Metal Council of Chongshan Province.

"call out!"

Almost at the same time.

A pure white figure streaked across the sky like a shooting star.

It stood high above, atop a mountain.

The three-meter-tall machine emitted a fluorescent color, captivating and profound, as if shrouded in a hazy mist. On its shoulders, two red dots, like blood diamonds, spun rapidly, locking onto Bai Tang's location.

Behind them, three suspended ball-shaped lightning bolts followed.

Hackers Group, Lightning Mechs.

At the same time and in the same place, three top-tier knight-level mechs, comparable to the masters of peak martial arts schools, forcibly blocked Bai Tang, leaving him nowhere to go.

It's important to understand that the Pale Death Mech is far from its original, fully-fledged form and hasn't even reached the Ascension stage. At this moment, if it could unleash its full power, it could rival a top-tier Knight-class mech.

However, there are now three top-tier knight-level warriors blocking Bai Tang's way.

Not to mention, he hasn't even mastered the Pale Death yet.

Suddenly, a sense of inexplicable despair rose in Bai Tang's heart.
