The night before the promotion

Chapter 70 Ucchusma
The sounds of explosions, roars, rain...all the noisy sounds mixed together, like a sledgehammer, smashing Zhou Si's temple.

Zhou Si felt dizzy and came to his senses belatedly. He shouted, "What did you say! Armed Avatar!"

He suspected that he had heard it wrong, but as an expert in this field, Song Qiliang would not make such a ridiculous mistake. Moreover, the flames erupting behind him were still not extinguished, burning the walls, melting the railings, and raising a cloud of rising steam in the rain and fog, as if a ferocious fire demon was chasing the two of them.

"Don't forget, the standard for judging an armed avatar is not the model, but its performance!"

The scout incarnation raised his arms to block in front of him, like a running rugby player, and once again smashed a crumbling wall, carrying Zhou Si into another street filled with rain and fog.

Then, fierce gunshots came from behind, clanging, like continuous thunder, which made Zhou Si's blood boil.

"It doesn't match any of the models in service, but I'm sure this bastard will be even more powerful than the Armed Avatar!"

Listening to Song Qiliang's roar, Zhou Si reluctantly turned his head. In the light of the burning fire, he vaguely saw a tall black shadow gradually emerging.

"Fuck it! Put me down, I've grown legs!"

Zhou Si slapped the scout incarnation's armor several times, and the scout incarnation put Zhou Si down. He staggered a few steps on the ground, feeling a dull pain all over his body.

Roaring flames gushed out from behind the broken wall. Zhou Si and the scout incarnation hid in the shelter nearby, and the deadly flames passed by them.

The distance was so close that Zhou Si could even feel the heat wave blowing towards him on his cheeks.

The cold rain was evaporated into scorching hot steam. The interweaving of cold and heat made Zhou Si feel suffocated.

Zhou Si had never expected that there was such a deadly weapon hidden in the alley. The roaring flames stopped, and then there were footsteps coming from behind the wall.

The voice was heavy and powerful, as if a giant was striding towards them.

Zhou Si asked in the channel, "You should be able to hold out for a while in front of it, right?"

"Yes, no matter how bad it is, the defensive power of this body is still considerable."

The scout avatar moved its arms. After experiencing such high-intensity combat, its metal shell only became a little bumpy, with only a few parts damaged.

Although the opponent is also an armed incarnation, he will not have an overwhelming advantage over the scout incarnation.

"Very good, you try to hold it back, and I will find a chance to kill it."

Zhou Si took out the narrow blade. The slender and thin blade extended from the palm of his hand. Free arcs of electricity jumped on it, as if it was enchanted.

This sharp blade has killed many incarnations, but Zhou Si has never used it to fight against armed incarnations. Therefore, Zhou Si is also very curious whether the sharp tip of the sword can pierce the enemy's armor.

"it is good!"

There was also a surge of anger in Song Qiliang's words.

Like Zhou Si, Song Qiliang has been controlling the armed avatar for such a long time, but he has never fought against another armed avatar. Even though the scout avatar did not carry any weapons, he became eager to try after hearing Zhou Si's words.

Deafening gunfire rang out again. Zhou Si and the scout incarnation quickly moved to another position. The complex terrain of the hidden alley gave them enough space to deal with the enemy.

The approaching footsteps sounded like increasingly sharp sounds. At the climax of the melody, Zhou Si finally saw the figure of the person coming.

It was an armed incarnation that was approximately humanoid in shape, its body painted in a deep dark blue color, with a high bulge on its back, two feet, and four arms.

Unlike the common armed avatars with strong technological style and industrial beauty, this four-armed avatar has many exaggerated cloud pattern decorations.

Its head was covered with a huge, angry mask, and its dark blue armor was covered with yellow symbols written in red sand. Blazing flames flickered in and out of the nozzles on its arms, and a large shawl was casually wrapped around its torso, which fluttered as hot air gushed out of the heat dissipation nozzles.

At first glance, the image of this four-armed incarnation reminded Zhou Si of the Buddhist fire-headed Vajra Ucchusma, but its exaggerated decoration made it obvious that someone had deliberately dressed it up to look like a Taoist immortal.

Two different belief systems were randomly mixed together here and attached to the steel body. Zhou Si only felt a distorted sense of inhumanity and a little bit of...absurdity.

If it were someone else, they might be a little confused and think that there was some deeper meaning behind this, but Zhou Si understood that this was just a disguise, a not-so-sophisticated disguise used to deceive believers.

The Paradise of Bliss not only disguised the technology of ascension as a path to immortality through faith, but also tried to transform these armed incarnations into guardian gods in mythology.

This idea is indeed good, but they are obviously not serious enough. They are neither gods nor Buddhas.

The people in the Land of Elysium probably wouldn't care about this kind of thing. Whether it's ascending to heaven or upgrading their consciousness, it's just an excuse. As long as it's useful, they don't mind taking out the statue of Jesus as well.

Zhou Si shouted, "Song Qiliang!"

Before the voice fell, the scout incarnation jumped up like a pitch-black hound, holding a twisted steel pipe in its hand, and smashed it heavily at Ucchusma. After a loud collision, the steel pipe twisted at a large angle, but Ucchusma was unharmed. It raised a mechanical arm, clenched its iron fist, and swept it across the waist of the scout incarnation like an iron whip.

Metal screamed and sparks flew.

Under the huge force, the scout incarnation smashed into a low house on the side like a cannonball, breaking countless layers of walls, raising a sky full of dust, which was then covered by the pouring rain.

Zhou Si's pace of progress slowed down. This was his first time fighting against an armed incarnation. Obviously, even though Zhou Si had made certain psychological expectations, there was still a big gap between his vision and reality.

Ucchusma turned his head and looked at Zhou Si, his majestic and angry eyes shone with a strong orange-red light, as if hot lava was brewing in them.

Its other mechanical arm was raised. At the end of the arm were not five flexible giant fingers, but a slowly rotating muzzle. The ammunition belt extended from the bottom to its convex back. The sparks of fire made the brass shells on the belt particularly bright.

Zhou Si gathered all his strength and forcibly changed the direction of his movement, rushing towards the broken wall on the other side.

When Zhou Si's body slammed to the ground, roaring gunshots followed, completely penetrating the concrete wall. The steel bars could be vaguely seen under the countless bullet holes.

Zhou Si was like a soldier in a trench. He lay on the ground and crawled forward as far as he could. After moving for a distance, Zhou Si stood up decisively and rushed into the dark door of the building.

For the time being, he did not consider the naive idea of ​​assassinating the armed incarnation. Ucchusma brought an absolute sense of oppression, and even wanting to get close to it was a pipe dream.

The heavy footsteps sounded like a death knell, echoing steadily and powerfully in Zhou Si's ears. Before Zhou Si could step onto the stairs, Ucchusma swung his iron fist and smashed a huge hole in the wall.

The rubble hit Zhou Si, leaving him bruised and blue. Zhou Si grabbed the railing on the side tightly and avoided falling down the stairs.

The roar of destruction continued over and over again, as if Zhou Si and others were no longer in reality, but in some psychedelic surreal place.

Zhou Si finally managed to stand firm, and saw a person behind the hole staring at him with stern and angry eyes, with a dazzling aura.

First there was a dazzling red light, and then a heat wave came towards me through the rain.

Ucchusma raised its third arm, and the huge mechanical palm cracked. A terrifying fire snake roared, drilled into the room, and raised a sea of ​​fire.

In an instant, the entire building was engulfed in flames.

In the blazing firelight, Zhou Si smashed the window with his head, rolled in the water, and quickly took off his black raincoat, revealing a white coat stained with blood and mud.

“Ahaha…haha…”

Zhou Si was caught in the heavy rain, panting.

A lingering pain came from the back of his spine. Zhou Si moved a little and felt a tingling pain and burning sensation in his back. His back was burned. The fabric and skin stuck together, turning it into a bloody mess.

Zhou Si turned around and saw that in the sea of ​​fire, Ucchusmo was still striding forward unswervingly. A yellow tube extended from its raised back, wrapping around its third arm like a python until it connected with the flame nozzle in the palm of its hand.

The heat rose upwards, and the talismans and shawls stuck to Ucchusma's body were stained with sparks, burning and dancing wildly.

A sharp pain spread in Zhou Si's mind, and the world in his eyes began to twist and distort.

Cracks burst out from the majestic and angry eyes, and what was revealed in the cracks was not the complex mechanical internal structure, but the sticky flesh and bones, as well as the densely packed pupils crowded in the cracks.

"Zhou...Si..."

A distant and solemn voice sounded, calling Zhou Si's name.

"Damn, you really know how to pick the right time."

Zhou Si tried hard to control his consciousness to prevent the cognitive disorder from further affecting his judgment.

At the same time, in the raging flames, a dark figure moved forward quickly. It was the incarnation of the scout.

"Doctor Zhou! Now!"

The scout incarnation jumped out of the sea of ​​fire, and while Ucchusmo's attention was focused on Zhou Si, it pounced on him.

The flexible arms tightly clamped the majestic and angry man's neck. After fixing his body, the scout incarnation repeatedly swung his heavy fists to hit the majestic and angry man.

Compared to bricks, stones and steel pipes, the most solid weapon in this sea of ​​fire is the scout incarnation itself.

Song Qiliang used his body as a weapon and struck hard!
