Chapter 1682: Assassination

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Although it was just a memory.

Shen Yuanbiao’s blood was still boiling.

To tell the truth, he was clear about the gap between himself and his big brother, as well as the other Deity Realm experts.

He also knew that Universe Corporation, which had lost its Deity Realm fighters, would certainly be filled with thorns and flames on its way forward.

If he wanted to get help from this fierce beast, the New Blood Alliance, he would have to pay a great price.

However…

Yun Feidian’s words made sense.

The old fellows who had awakened their extraordinary strength at Dragon City had all reached the end of their lives.

When they were young and strong, the sequelae of excessive cultivation and crazy battles were like time bombs that gradually exploded in their bodies.

As short as one and a half years and as long as three to five years, the old fellows would gradually withdraw from the stage of history.

His big brother, Shen Yuanbao, was the best example.

In three to five years, Dragon City would definitely be the world of the second generation of superhumans.

Compared with the first generation of superhumans who had started from scratch, the second generation of superhumans possessed a more solid foundation, fewer mistakes on the path of cultivation, and more resources to support them as they grew up. That made their vitality magnetic field more stable and their cells stronger. It was also more likely for them to break through their human limits and become existences that surpassed the Deity Realm.

In addition, the second generation of superhumans had two very important characteristics.

First, most of them were born in the Other World and did not have too much affection for Earth. They would not think that it was their natural responsibility to protect Earth and the people of Earth.

Second, most were children of the first generation of superhumans. From the beginning, they realized that they were different from ordinary people—they were born to be decision-makers, hunters, and leaders. They were destined to control Dragon City’s fate.

Once the second generation of superhumans like them came to power one after another, the rules of the game in Dragon City would definitely change dramatically.

In the process, many old guys who followed the old ways would lose miserably.

Those who could see the trend clearly and follow it would have the chance to ride the wind and soar to the sky.

Shen Yuanbiao believed that he was definitely the latter.

“Return to The Grand View of the Universe!”

He sat in the back seat of an off-road vehicle equipped with bulletproof glass, as well as armor, and ordered the driver in the driver’s seat.

The moment the driver started the engine, his pupils contracted into two needle tips, and the hair on the back of his head stood on end. His heart seemed to be pierced by an ice pick, and the piercing pain instantly passed through his spinal cord to his central nervous system. It issued an extremely ear-piercing alarm to his brain.

Bang!

Crack!

A gunshot sound that was covered by a silencer in the distance rang out almost at the same time as the bulletproof glass on his right fractured.

Hundreds of crisscrossing cracks instantly appeared on the bulletproof glass that could supposedly withstand a full-strength blow from a ferocious Hell Beast.

Fortunately, after the bullet penetrated the bulletproof glass, the deflection of the angle caused it to narrowly slide past Shen Yuanbiao’s nose and embed itself into the handrail on the other side of the carriage with a sharp whistle.

Shen Yuanbiao smelled a strong aura.

As the chief executive officer of Universe Corporation, he was, of course, the top mining expert in Dragon City.

The complex aura made him realize that the warhead was made of at least seven different kinds of crystals. It had the ability to burn, freeze, and release electric arcs in an instant. It was very difficult to block it with a spirit shield. Of course, the cost and difficulty of manufacturing it were unimaginable for an ordinary person too. It was definitely not something that ordinary killers could get their hands on!

“What’s going on?

“Who wants to kill me?”

The questions flashed through his mind like fireworks in a storm.

Shen Yuanbiao sensed the second sniper bullet whistling toward his temple.

The shattered bulletproof glass was no longer capable of blocking or interfering, and the sniper bullet was like the tusks of an Apocalyptic Beast.

Before it pierced into Shen Yuanbiao’s temple, he could envision his his skull exploding and his brain splattering everywhere.

At that critical moment, a series of cracking sounds erupted from Shen Yuanbao’s spine and neck at the same time.

He sank his entire body into the soft chair, and half of his head was even retracted into his chest.

According to his calculations, the second sniper bullet would narrowly pass his head. At most, it would wipe off a few strands of his hair.

As for the sniper who had fired two bullets consecutively, the elite forces he had arranged outside must have discovered him by now. It was impossible for him to have another chance to fire a third bullet.

However…

The piercing pain that was clearly directed at Shen Yuanbiao’s temple disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Under the influence of some strange force, the entire trajectory of the bullet fell by about seven inches. It went from Shen Yuanbiao’s temple to locking onto his neck, specifically, his carotid artery that contained rich blood vessels, as well as the cervical vertebrae that supported his skull.

This d*mned killer had used some unknown method to mislead Shen Yuanbiao’s perception!

Of course, it was because Shen Yuanbiao had already shrunk half of his head into his chest.

His neck was completely hidden by his scapula.

So, the opponent’s unpredictable attack did not directly pierce through Shen Yuanbiao’s neck, tear his carotid artery, and break his cervical vertebra.

Instead, it shot through his right shoulder, exploded his shoulder blade, and spread to his right lung.

Boom!

A dazzling fireball exploded on Shen Yuanbiao’s right shoulder.

It was clearly a sniper bullet as thick as a finger, but it had the effect of a rocket.

The threatening red flames emanated a bone-chilling coldness. His torn flesh and blood had just been swallowed by the flames, but his wound was instantly frozen into a deep blue color. Immediately after, electric arcs shot out from the depths of the wound, tearing Shen Yuanbiao’s frozen flesh into pieces.

It was as if an invisible giant beast had bitten Shen Yuanbiao’s right shoulder hard, leaving a shocking hole between his shoulder blades, chest muscles, and lungs. Only a layer of oily skin remained on his right arm, and this layer of skin was tearing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Despite Shen Yuanbiao’s cultivation, which was close to the Deity Realm, he became pale after the severe injury. His head was covered in cold sweat, and he was close to fainting.

The sniper bullet was still stuck in his bones. Mysterious and complicated runes engraved on the bullet kept activating and releasing the spirit energy inside the bullet. They created effects similar to radiation, corrosion, and lethal poison that spread to his internal organs and the depths of his brain!

Fortunately, the bodyguard sitting on his left pounced on him.

The loyal bodyguard who had followed him for more than twenty years used his huge body to help him seal the car window and block the killer’s vision.

At the same time, he squeezed a large amount of medical gel that had been extracted from the flesh of Apocalyptic Beasts on his wound to stop the bleeding, relieve the pain, and control the corrosion and radiation.

Shen Yuanbiao heaved a sigh of relief.

However, in the next second, he felt the world spinning and rapidly losing color.

“You…”

Shen Yuanbiao seemed to realize something. His eyes were wide open as he stared at his personal bodyguard.
