Chapter 440 The Bizarre Assassination
Sizzle—!
The papers on the desk were blown away in the blink of an eye, and the entire office was filled with a dazzling display of light and shadow.
The storm formed by this lightning strike did not seem to be as large as the one Tang Zijun had encountered before, but it was still much larger than what he and Xiao Yue had experienced.
The silver spoon was propelled by the violent magnetic force and embedded in the wall like a flying knife, while the empty coffee cup was instantly shattered by lightning into pieces that scattered on the ground.
Just as Shangguan Su was relaxing, she was startled by this sudden scene. The pull between exhaustion and shock made her abruptly raise her head.
But the moment she looked up, she suddenly met a blinding red light.
It was a one-eyed robot that appeared to be made entirely of metal, but strangely, it possessed teeth and bones similar to those of a human, and half of its head was sticking out of the computer screen!
The pixels on the computer screen are no match for this advanced technology. The light and shadow particles on the entire screen are being torn apart, breaking into all sorts of colors, and eventually returning to black and white.
And in the midst of this tearing, the hideous robot poked its head out from the computer screen!
"Code name: Director of the Demon Surveillance Bureau, begin the extermination!"
The mechanical eyeball flashed red, accompanied by a metallic sound. The next moment, a sense of impending death suddenly surged into Shangguan Su's heart.
With no time to react, Shangguan Su never imagined that she would be assassinated, especially when she was so exhausted, and in the most secure building of the Demon Surveillance Bureau.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and even Shangguan Su's somewhat muddled mind didn't have time to give any instructions.
There was nothing she could do but watch helplessly as those eyes, radiating destructive energy, locked onto her.
But while the robot was fast, someone was even faster.
Just as the laser was about to erupt, a hand suddenly reached out from the reflection on the computer screen.
The hand had slender fingers and distinct knuckles, and didn't seem particularly special. But the next second, the hand grabbed the robot's head with a spiking motion, and then twisted it aside with irresistible brute force.
brush-
A crimson light suddenly erupted.
boom!!
With a deafening explosion, the wall behind Shangguan Su was blasted open by the destructive energy, leaving a huge gap. Some of the steel bars were even melted by the high temperature and flowed down.
Shangguan Su stared blankly ahead, a strand of hair falling down her left temple, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt hair.
So close!
She never imagined that she would be so close to death.
What surprised her even more was that two people could pop out of a computer screen at the same time!
The attack's target was forcibly reversed, and the robot hesitated for a moment, seemingly unprepared for such a situation.
But it made a move the next moment. Two blue flames suddenly burst out from behind the robot's shoulders. The power of the thrusters tore through the screen particles in the blink of an eye, and its whole body shot out of the computer like a rocket launch.
Along with the robot came Tang Zijun, who was still holding onto its head.
The only difference is that the former uses a virtual channel on a computer, while the latter uses a reversed channel in the reflection.
Feeling the terrifying power emanating from the metal lump in her hand, Tang Zijun knew without a doubt what the other party wanted to do. With such a high-speed impact, this guy was clearly aiming for Shangguan Su.
Without time to think, Tang Zijun grabbed its shoulder with her left hand and, using the momentum to throw it away just as it was about to make contact with Shangguan Su, used the momentum to escape the reversal passage.
The entire desk was instantly blasted in two by the powerful force. The robot continued its momentum, flipping several times in mid-air before crashing headfirst into the wall.
Now there are holes in both walls directly opposite the office.
"I made it..."
Dust off non-existent dust from her body, Tang Zijun slowly straightened up.
Behind him, Shangguan Su, who was in shock, finally came to her senses. The entire attack happened in just a few seconds, leaving her no time to take any effective measures.
When Shangguan Su's gaze slowly shifted to the man standing in front of her, her expression was truly fascinating.
Tang Zijun tilted her head slightly. "Are you alright, Director Shangguan?"
"Tang, Tang Zijun?"
Shangguan Su uttered the name with some disbelief.
As the director of the Magical Surveillance Bureau, she meets countless agents every day, and she doesn't even recognize many of them. But if the other party is the only six-star agent in the bureau, and also the only guardian of a magical girl from the real world, then it's a different story.
"How could it be you... Wait, what's going on?!"
After confirming that the person who helped her was one of her own, Shangguan Su immediately turned her gaze to the attacker, and at the same time, her hand reached for the pistol under the chair.
"I'm sorry to have disturbed your rest. I originally wanted to explain all this in a more relaxed way, but now..."
Tang Zijun withdrew her gaze and looked at the robot that was slowly crawling up from the rubble.
"Omnics, huh? I didn't expect you to move so fast. I wasn't even ready to cause you any trouble, and you've already found our world."
brush!
With a casual gesture, a silver card appeared at Tang Zijun's fingertips in an instant.
Before Shangguan Su's astonished gaze, a metallic silver belt materialized from the illusion at a visible speed and wrapped around Tang Zijun's waist.
"You, who exactly are you...?"
With her lips slightly parted, Shangguan Su's mind went blank.
Just as Tang Zijun was about to answer, she heard the robot opposite her let out a low growl first.
"Code name: Wolf Rider... I didn't expect you to catch up so quickly. I really can't underestimate someone like you who has mastered extraordinary abilities."
Tang Zijun frowned slightly. "In your world, I don't care about your rules, since we're different and I can't operate freely. But in my world, do you still want to compete with me in speed?"
"Hehehe..."
The intelligent robot revealed a human-like smile, and a hoarse laugh, like the scraping of metal, echoed amidst the blaring alarms.
"It's alright, it's just an experiment anyway. The fact that you're here means the plan has succeeded."
"What plan?" Tang Zijun's brows furrowed.
"It's an assassination plot, of course! Die!!"
Without any warning, the intelligent robot suddenly raised its hand and unleashed a scorching laser beam.
Having anticipated the attack, Tang Zijun reacted simultaneously. In a flash of silver light, the laser was sent flying, shattering the French windows and hurtling into the night sky.
Looking again at Tang Zijun's hand, a sharp short sword was gleaming with a chilling light.
Following the direction of the short sword, a silver armor materialized within the silver light, enveloping Tang Zijun's entire body.
Only then did the sound effect of the belt belatedly begin.
"Transformed..." Shangguan Su's mouth dropped open. It was hard to believe that such an expression would appear on her face.
But the other two guys in the room ignored her surprise, their suppressed aura making the air pressure in the whole room seem to drop.
A series of hurried footsteps came from outside the broken wall, and several uniformed agents rushed in with weapons, but when they saw the scene inside the room, they all froze on the spot.
Shangguan Su also noticed the arrival of the support agents, but after hesitating for a second, she suddenly waved her hand at the agents, signaling them not to come any closer.
Although it's unclear why Tang Zijun suddenly transformed, or what the identity of the mysterious attacker was, the current situation is certainly not something an ordinary person could handle.
The agents looked at each other, then quickly withdrew.
As the footsteps faded into the distance, Tang Zijun's expression relaxed slightly beneath his mask. To be honest, he was really not used to fighting with onlookers present.
In the past, when he fought against those driven by greed, it was always in the uninhabited Reversal World, where it didn't matter how much noise he made. But in the real world, he was genuinely afraid of losing control.
"As expected, your card-transformation was just a ruse..." the AI robot said in a somewhat sinister voice. "You can put on this armor anytime you want."
"Don't talk nonsense. The transformation process and cool pose are a sign of respect for your opponent." Tang Zijun raised her head slightly. "But you, without connecting to the world portal, how did you break through the barrier to get here?"
"you do not know?"
This time, it was the intelligent robot's turn to be surprised.
But it soon burst into laughter, the shrill sound like ocean waves, causing Tang Zijun and Shangguan Su to frown simultaneously.
"I understand, I understand, I made a mistake..."
The intelligent robot muttered to itself.
But soon it looked at Tang Zijun in front of it, and at the same time, the dark blue energy all over its body began to gather at the core of its chest. Soon, a ball of light composed of electric arcs gathered in its body.
The intelligent robot grinned as it looked at Tang Zijun.
"It doesn't matter anymore, it's just a body that can be discarded at any time..."
Sensing the increasingly terrifying energy reaction within the other person's body, Tang Zijun frowned. "You know this kind of explosion can't hurt me, right?"
"Indeed." The android sneered. "Even an antimatter field couldn't trap you, so I didn't expect this little explosion to kill you."
"However, you weren't my target to begin with."
After a pause, the intelligent robot slowly shifted its gaze to Shangguan Su behind Tang Zijun.
"That tiny explosion..."
"Enough to wipe out everyone in this building and my body!"
