Evolution game, nothing more than that!

But not for a few seconds.

boom! ! !

This 'bag' suddenly exploded, and countless cement rubble mixed with a large amount of high-temperature molten metal turned into a deadly vortex drill, crushing everything within the range like a meat grinder!

Human bodies, cars, armored vehicles, nothing could survive, all were shattered into pieces by this man-made "natural disaster".

Then, this terrifying metal storm suddenly swung outward, and countless metal fragments, along with a large amount of gravel, soil, vehicle wreckage and human limbs, turned into extremely deadly shells, destroying several times more vehicles and personnel in the surrounding area.

For a moment, the scene seemed to have turned into a Shura field, with the ground littered with countless broken limbs and wailing wounded.

"what happened?"

"In the end what happened?"

“Ah! My legs, my legs—!!!”

"Help me, help me! I'm bleeding all over the floor!"

All the people who were still alive looked at the scene in shock, stunned by the sudden change.

It was not until a long time later that an officer who had survived finally came to his senses.

"Quick, go save people!"

He immediately shouted and ordered his men to rescue the wounded. However, before they could take a few steps, everyone felt that the vehicle wreckage, metal fragments, and even the weapons in their hands around them were trembling slightly, as if some force was attracting them.

Everyone immediately turned their eyes towards the huge pit that suddenly appeared. No one dared to make any big movements. Even the seriously injured soldiers seemed to realize that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and their wailing became a little quieter.

And in this unsettling silence and waiting, accompanied by the humming sound of metallic vibrations, a platform almost the same size as the pit slowly rose from it, and on the platform stood three figures.

They were Yi Shen, Yamasaki An and Sakurajima Mai.

Unlike his previous attempts to hold back, this time, Yi Shen attacked right from the start.

In fact, if they were just policemen, he would at least let them go. After all, the policemen in this world really wanted to protect ordinary people and were not bad people. But if they were the military, and from Japan... then he would not show any mercy!

He had specifically chosen this location for the Metal Storm Meat Grinder that had just broken out of the ground. Through the dual positioning of his raptor clone in the sky and his own five-sighted omnipotence, he had chosen the end point of the excavated tunnel at the place where military vehicles were most concentrated, causing them huge damage in one fell swoop.

Facing the murderer who caused such heavy casualties, the officer who took over the command, after a brief moment of shock, immediately issued an order:

"Fire! Fire!!!"

Da da da--

bang bang bang-

Boom boom boom——

shhhhh--

All kinds of gunshots suddenly resounded throughout the factory area, and bullets rained down on Yi Shen and the other two.

However, all bullets approaching the three people would be blocked by the quietly emerging elemental shield.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Several shoulder-fired rockets, dragging tail flames and thick smoke, crashed into the shield and exploded with "boom", "boom", and "boom".

The elemental shield is not an absolute defense after all. In this short-term, high-intensity attack, it finally showed obvious fluctuations and looked like it was about to be broken.

Chapter 136: Space-Based Weapons, Light Spear Strike

Although Yi Shen's elemental shield was fluctuating and looked shaky, for some reason it just wouldn't break!

——Yi Shen is no longer the same person he used to be. Although the total amount of elements he controls has not increased much, his previous practice on the changes in the nature of lightning has given him a deeper understanding of injecting will into elements.

It's also an elemental shield, and he also injects the will of "protection" into the elements. Now he is several times stronger than when he first created this move.

If these attacks had been in the Novice Trial, they would have been able to shatter the shield. However, now, at most, they could only slightly shake the shield, but could never truly break it.

boom!

Crackling——!

Bolts of lightning shot out from the shield, accurately killing every soldier who dared to attack Yi Shen and his men, including the officer who gave the order.

In just a moment, the gunfire stopped.

The policemen further away were also terrified when they saw the military, who had been so arrogant just a moment ago, now littered with corpses.

Even an army that is fully armed with all kinds of light and heavy weapons has been defeated like this. How long can these policemen who have been stripped of their minions (rulers) last against these enemies?

I’m afraid it will be gone in an instant!

However, at this moment, a beam of scorching light fell from the sky and hit the elemental shield from the top.

hum-

The three people inside the shield felt the temperature around them rising rapidly in an instant.

Yi Shen's expression suddenly changed. The shield couldn't block it?

However, he soon realized that this should be an attack from some kind of beam weapon, and his elemental shield could provide good defense against other types of attacks, but its defense against beam weapons, whether it was a laser or simply focused high-intensity light, was really limited.

After all, his shield is transparent, and transparency means that it cannot block the passage of light.

Knowing that his vital point had been found, he immediately pulled the two of them out of the range of the light beam.

However, the beam attack that fell from the sky seemed to have targeted them. No matter which direction the three rushed to, no matter how fast they were, the beam would follow them like a shadow and always shine on them.

Yi Shen finally felt a sense of urgency this time.

Although he could still hold on for a while with the help of the cellular force field, he was worried that Yamasaki An and Sakurajima Mai would not be able to hold on any longer.

Fortunately, his teammates are more reliable than he thought.

After discovering that Yi Shen's shield failed to block the attack and that he was unable to quickly get rid of it, Sakurajima Mai reacted immediately. She erected the shadows under the feet of the three people and wrapped them up like flower buds, finally isolating the beam of light that was chasing them.

Although using shadows to block light beams sounds a bit outrageous, mystical skills do not completely follow the laws of physics after all.

Although these shadows were indeed restrained by the light beam, and layer after layer of shadows were dispersed and evaporated every moment, they were finally blocked with the constant replenishment of Sakurajima Mai.

"How are you guys? Are you okay?"

Yi Shen, who had temporarily escaped the attack, looked at his two teammates and asked with concern.

"It's okay. Don't forget that we both have enhanced bloodlines, and our body's recovery ability is not much worse than yours."

Sakurajima Mai said this, and Yamasaki An nodded to indicate that she was fine.

"That's good."

Yi Shen breathed a sigh of relief, then looked up.

Although he was blocked by the materialized shadow, he could still feel the scorching heat of the beam of light outside. From time to time, some tiny beams of light even penetrated the layers of shadows and shone into the inside - the attack was still continuing, and it seemed that it would not stop until they were eliminated.

He had already guessed what was attacking them. It should be some kind of space-based weapon. He didn't know whether it was equipped with a high-energy laser or a light spear that focused sunlight.

But no matter which one it is, it is a weapon that they cannot destroy at present - the altitude of the space orbit is too high, and none of the means that the three of them can use at this time can reach that altitude.

"How long can you last?"

He asked Sakurajima Mai, it was really thanks to her this time, but to block this level of attack, her consumption would probably not be small, and he didn't know how long she could last.

"I can probably hold on for about ten minutes."

Sakurajima Mai estimated the rate at which the shadow power in her body was being consumed and replied.

"...Looks like I have to find a way to completely avoid this attack!"

Yi Shen frowned.

More than ten minutes, neither long nor short.

If they were to go at full speed, they could easily rush into densely populated areas within this time period, use a large number of ordinary people as hostages, and force the other side to give up the attack.

However, this method is too insidious, and secondly, there is no guarantee that the person launching the attack will really care about the lives of these ordinary people. If they continue to attack regardless of casualties, it will be a waste of effort.

Of course, they could also change direction and escape underground again. With the destructive power of Yi Shen and Sakurajima Mai's skills, digging a tunnel in a short time would not be a problem.

But this plan also has disadvantages, that is, their movement speed will be greatly limited - no matter how strong they are, the speed of digging holes will not be as fast as the speed of moving on the ground. It is enough for the police and the army to use various instruments to determine their positions and re-encircle them. When other more powerful heavy weapons are transported here, the situation will become more passive.

Then, there is only one way left.

"Mai, please hold on for a while longer. I need to make some preparations. Xing, help with the lighting."

He said so.

Although the two girls didn't know what he wanted to do, they nodded.

An Yamasaki took out a high-powered flashlight and completely illuminated the dim little space. Mai Sakurajima closed her eyes and concentrated on mobilizing the power of shadow to resist the attack of the light beam outside.

Then, Yi Shen took out many stones engraved with runes and various bottles and jars of potions from his backpack.

He quickly mixed several potions together to form a viscous liquid, and then used a brush to apply the liquid on the ground beneath his feet.

After finishing the painting, he placed the rune stones engraved with runes in various locations.

Yamasaki An realized that Yi Shen was going to set up a battle formation.

However, in Van Helsing's knowledge of occult science, is there any ritual formation that can resist this kind of space-based weapon attack?

In fact, there really is!

However, he did not directly fight against this terrifying spear of light that was like a fire from the sky, but instead used a trick.

After the formation was set up, Yi Shen injected his thunder elemental power into it.

In an instant, the wind, water, and even the magnetic fields of the heaven and earth here all underwent some subtle changes. An invisible energy rushed up into the sky and went straight into the sky thousands of meters high.

Then, in the originally clear sky, clouds began to condense and accumulate rapidly, and turned into thick cumulonimbus clouds in just a few minutes.

Chapter 137: Clouds block the spear of light, and network outages prevent the truth

The clouds gathered quickly, and the beam of light falling from the sky was suddenly disturbed and became scattered.

Yes, this is the solution that Yi Shen thought of, which is similar to the "cloud-blocking light spear" that "prevents lasers in smog".

The formation he set up was essentially a rain-praying ceremony to summon rain clouds, but it did not use the Eastern altar, formation flags, and Yu steps, but the Western formations and runes.

In fact, in this process, the heat brought by the light spear attack itself also helped a lot - this scorching light beam shot from outer space brought a lot of heat into the atmosphere. The heated air expanded, naturally forming a large-scale air convection, which accelerated the formation of clouds.

Although the water vapor gathered in the center of the part directly hit by the light beam was quickly evaporated due to the high temperature, and no cloud could form to completely isolate the light beam, this still reduced the intensity of the attack by more than one level.

More importantly, because the clouds covered most of the sky, the satellites in the sky lost their view of the ground and could no longer lock onto Yi Shen and the others.

So we can see that after the clouds formed and the light beam was weakened, the shadow on the ground that was closed like a flower bud unfolded again, and the figures of Yi Shen and the other two shot out from it and quickly rushed out of the range of the light beam.

But this time, the beam of light that was originally chasing them no longer continued to chase them.

"Sure enough, it's out of the lock!"

Yi Shen exchanged a glance with his two teammates, and without slowing down, he quickly left the scene.

Those police officers who survived the previous attack but were unarmed could only watch the enemy disappear before their eyes.

——They didn't even react. Enemies with superpowers, armies that were wiped out in an instant, beams of light falling from the sky, and enemies that could even escape unscathed from the attacks of such space-based weapons... Most people were shocked by this series of events and were in a trance.

It was not until more than ten minutes later that a dozen or so armed helicopters sent by the military to reinforce arrived.

But all that was left at the scene were abandoned vehicles, broken bodies and arms, and police officers who looked as if they were doubting their lives.

……

Not to mention how the newly arrived troops and police would fight and shirk responsibility with each other, on Yi Shen's side, after leaving the scene, the three of them decisively found a secluded place to hide and review the operation.

"It's really scary. I didn't expect that this world even has this kind of space-based weapon."

Yamasaki An patted her plump chest, with an expression of having survived a disaster on her face.

"Yes, we all underestimated this world before. We thought the strongest forces we would face would only be tanks and helicopters, but we didn't expect there would be such a powerful weapon..."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yi Shen couldn't help but reflect on himself in his heart.

Although he had said before that one should not rely too much on the known plot, this time his thinking was still restricted by the original plot and he almost led his team into a desperate situation.

If you think about it carefully, is the world described in "Psycho-Pass" really as simple as it appears in the original plot?

A serious country, even if it is the last country ruled by law in the world in the original setting, cannot have only a small number of police officers holding a limited number of "rulers" with limited power as the force to maintain the state apparatus.

Not to mention that in this rationalized mission world, Japan is not the only country in the world that still maintains a government. In order to maintain a balance of power with other countries, it is impossible to do so without a few powerful weapons.
