Swallowed Star: Top Comprehension

Chapter 23 Thunderous Means, Want to Stack BUFF?

City 023, wilderness area.

Whoosh!
A slight sound pierced the calm air as a Chinese military-issued flying saucer-shaped fighter plane slowed down and landed nearby.

Wow!
With a crisp sound of the door opening, three fully armed soldiers walked out of the fighter plane.

The leader of the team, a soldier who was obviously a senior officer, walked forward quickly until he stood in front of Chen Yue.

"Jiangnan Base City North Military District Wind Chasing Squad, I am the captain Nie Yuan, and I am here with my team members to support you!"

Nie Yuan saluted Chen Yue with a serious expression.

Chen Yue responded with a standard military salute and nodded slightly.

Nie Yuan said: "The mastermind Li Tao is still hiding in that residential building. I have secretly sent a drone to block his escape route."

Chen Yue expressed his gratitude: "Thanks, leave the rest to me."

He already had a plan in mind.

However, when Nie Yuan checked the data display screen in his hand, he reminded with concern: "But according to our investigation, Li Tao may have concealed his true strength before."

"He has already broken through to the intermediate general level."

Sudden--

Nie Yuan's face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed: "Not good!"

"Judging from the energy fluctuations, it happened just now!"

"Li Tao took an S-level gene potion. In a short period of time, the genetic force in his body is constantly increasing!"

“The improvement has nearly doubled, and it’s still growing!”

He then added: “The improvement is so fast!”

"Still..." Nie Yuan stared at the display screen in his hand seriously.

however--

"Captain, the people have gone far away." A tall and thin soldier beside Nie Yuan reminded in a low voice.

Going far? How to go?
Wasn’t Li Tao blocked by a drone?

Nie Yuan was a little confused for a moment.

"boom--"

Sudden--

There was no need to search any further, as a deafening bang was heard from a residential building not far away.

Then, two figures flew out from the top floor window.

Nie Yuan subconsciously looked over and saw that the person in the lead was the target of this operation—the burly man with a scar on his face hiding in the dark—Li Tao.

But for some reason, his posture was a little...

grace?

At this time, Li Tao was falling downwards in a parabola at a 45-degree angle to the ground.

Behind him, is——

The young man that the military leaders asked Nie Yuan to cooperate with.

--------

Just a few seconds ago, Li Tao took the S-level gene potion and was trying hard to absorb the medicinal power.

He witnessed Chen Yue ruining the plan he had carefully planned.

Although he was indignant, he remained unmoved.

He decided to break through first and then make plans.

He has been enduring for more than ten years. If it weren't for the recent changes, he would not have been forced into such a desperate situation!

This matter began on February 2 this year, when Chen Yue participated in the warrior practical combat assessment.

Chen Yue demonstrated strength far beyond that of an ordinary person in the assessment, and was immediately sought after by representatives from four parties: the Extreme Martial Arts School, the Thunder and Lightning Martial Arts School, the Chinese military, and the HR Alliance.

Especially Wang Heng, the person in charge of Thunder and Lightning Martial Arts School, he immediately pointed out that Chen Yue and Luo Feng were both from Yangzhou City, but both of them eventually chose Extreme Martial Arts School.

Despite Wu Tong's contribution, Wang Heng also became dissatisfied with the chief instructor of the Leidian Martial Arts School in Yangzhou.

He even announced on the spot that he would remove Yangzhou City's chief instructor from his post.

Wu Tong was also present at the time and thought Wang Heng was just joking.

But out of caution, he told the news to Li Tao, who was the chief instructor of the Yangzhou City Leidian Martial Arts School at the time.

The two have known each other for more than 20 years and were once members of the same warrior team.

Until an accident a few years ago...

Due to Li Tao's negligence, a teammate died.

The captain at that time was a psychic with amazing perception abilities.

In the original novel, Luo Feng met this person at Wu Tong's place after he became a warrior.

The captain, with his amazing perception and brainpower, immediately suspected that Li Tao did it on purpose.

But he has no evidence.

Li Tao had an argument with the captain and eventually left the warrior team and joined the Leidian Martial Arts School.

As time passed, Wu Tong thought that Li Tao had let go of his grudge.

He even always treated Li Tao as a brother.

So Wu Tong reminded Li Tao, but he never expected that this would make Li Tao feel frightened.

Because if the shameful things he had done before and his past abuse of power were exposed, there would be no chance of survival.

So Li Tao decided to escape.

When he was planning to leave, he learned the news of Wu Tong's promotion, and this news completely aroused the jealousy in his heart!

Overnight, his resentment reached a peak, and he took action.

After he learned that Wu Tong planned to invite his friends to celebrate in the evening, he rushed to City 023 and set a trap there in advance.

Afterwards, Li Tao contacted Wu Tong using an unfamiliar phone number, lied that he was in trouble and asked Wu Tong for help.

Wu Tong was drunk and didn't think too much. After all, he and Li Tao had been friends for more than 20 years, so he rushed to City 023 without hesitation.

When they met, Li Tao did not take action immediately. Instead, he took advantage of Wu Tong's unpreparedness, turned off his communication watch, and then destroyed it.

At the same time, he used a special herb to attract the monster to Wu Tong, and took the opportunity to hide in a residential building.

He observed secretly, intending to watch Wu Tong being torn to pieces by the monster with his own eyes, in order to satisfy his deformed pleasure of revenge.

As for the S-level gene potion, it was a complete unexpected surprise!

--------

However, the situation suddenly changed.

Li Tao saw Chen Yue defeating the Iron-backed Rhinos one by one in an instant. Shocked, he immediately planned to retreat.

But he found that he had been locked on by several drones and his position was exposed.

My heart is filled with resentment and anger, and is corroded by vicious thoughts.

He frantically absorbed the power of the genetic medicine, trying to tear the people in front of him into pieces to vent his hatred!
however--

At the critical moment, just as he was concentrating, a figure suddenly shot over at an incredible speed.

Then he felt his waist being hit by a powerful kick from behind.

Kicked him down from the top floor with great force!

The force was so great that it nearly broke his combat uniform.

The whole process was as fast as lightning, and Li Tao had no time to react.

anger!
humiliation!

Feeling the severe pain in his lower back, Li Tao looked up at Chen Yue in front of him angrily.

"You actually--sneak attacked me!"

Chen Yue was speechless.

Not sneak attack you?

Wait until your buffs are fully stacked before going up?

Chen Yue is not that stupid.

Just now, when Chen Yue was talking with Nie Yuan, he felt that something was wrong.

He did not continue to listen to Nie Yuan, but rushed out immediately.

Suddenly, Li Tao burst into laughter. He looked up at Chen Yue and said, "Do you think you can stop me by interrupting me? It's too late!"

He raised his head slightly, with an expression that looked down upon the world, and continued: "It is indeed worthy of being an S-level gene potion. It has doubled my strength."

"Ah——only the God of War can possess such power, right? Hahaha!"

Li Tao's laughter became even wilder.

He no longer held out any hope of escape and no longer concealed his strength.

He had only one plan—

Let everyone present be buried with him!

"Wu Tong, do you think I'm as incompetent as you?"

"Waste! After so many years, you are still stuck at the stage of a junior general?" he sneered.

"And I—I am already a mid-level warrior!"

"You are so stupid! A warrior should fight against heaven and against people!"

"You don't fight for anything, but you expect that with the few resources provided by the martial arts school, you can break through to the level of God of War?"

"Absolutely ridiculous!"

"Come and see, I am the same, am I not? Everything I have was earned through my own strength, haha!"

Li Tao shouted loudly, "Come on, taste the wrath of a new God of War! Before the God of War falls, let you little pawns be buried with him!"

At that moment, Li Tao had completely lost his mind.

Obviously, everyone present realized this -

Li Tao went completely crazy.

Nie Yuan immediately said to Chen Yue: "Sir, please evacuate first! We will provide cover."

He turned to the two team members, "Yang Wen! Li Guang!"

They both responded in unison: "Here!"

"Escort the two officers to retreat first! Leave this to me."

"Captain——!" The team members wanted to say something.

But Nie Yuan said seriously: "This is an order!"

The two did not speak again.

Even though he was reluctant in his heart, even though he was dissatisfied with Chen Yue!

The two team members continued walking towards Chen Yue.

"Tap - step -"

Their combat boots stomped heavily on the ground, making a heavy and powerful sound, as if venting the unwillingness in their hearts.

But as the captain said before.

They are Chinese soldiers!
It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders.

Then at this moment, a sinister laugh interrupted their steps.

"Want to leave? No way! You all must die!"

Li Tao released an astonishing momentum and rushed straight towards the direction where Chen Yue was.

"Hahaha! Come on, kid! Without a fighter plane, you are nothing! Let me let you taste the wrath of the God of War first!"

"Idiot!" Chen Yue finally spoke.

The two soldiers who were approaching Chen Yue stopped.

That madman has obviously completely lost his mind!
Why irritate him further?

Nie Yuan was also stunned.

In the field, only Wu Tong was relatively calm.

At this moment, Nie Yuan got through to the Northern Military Region Command and was requesting reinforcements.

Chen Yue kept silent.

Draw out the sword, and reach the third level of "Star", and the power surges!

The three tiny stars suddenly accelerated their rotation!
His body movements appeared - fleeting glimpses! He cleverly avoided Li Tao's collision.

The move came out - Star Shattering! It hit the opponent's vital point hard.

puff!puff!puff!
As the knife light faded, Li Tao collapsed powerlessly in a pool of blood.

"Major Nie Yuan! Please answer!" The voice of the command center came through the headset.

"...I'm here!" Nie Yuan was stunned for a few seconds before answering.

"We have confirmed your location. Please provide us with the enemy's strength and we will arrange for reinforcements immediately."

"No need, it's been solved..." Nie Yuan replied, with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.
