Chapter 1359 - 1358: Retreat

Screeeech!

Right as Magnetic Thunder's arm swung, a massive teeth-grinding shriek of twisting metal exploded through the air. The sound was razor sharp, echoing through the night sky, making everyone who heard it go cold all over, goosebumps rippling across their skin!

And with that razor-sharp, nerve-scraping metal screech, the huge metal frame beside them suddenly warped and collapsed, crashing straight down toward the space right in front of Lu Yu!

Magnetic Thunder's control over Electromagnetic Force was clearly terrifying to the extreme. A metal frame that huge—he only had to yank on it and it twisted and snapped in an instant. That kind of power was downright monstrous!

The title of these three top brass—Magnetic Thunder and the others—was definitely not just for show!

Rumble rumble rumble!

As the giant metal frame toppled and smashed down, the air was filled with rolling, booming wind-shear, and at the same time a crushing sense of pressure poured down, like a skyscraper about to collapse, bearing down viciously from above.

"Magnetic Thunder!"

Seeing that massive metal tower bearing down right on his head, Lu Yu spoke, "Looks like this time they really are going all out!"

Twisting a metal frame that huge took an insane amount of strength. Even with Magnetic Thunder piggybacking off the Superpower Biological Battle Armor, there was no way he was coming out of this completely unscathed!

Even though that flashed through his mind, Lu Yu still didn't turn back to engage. In the current situation, it wasn't up to him.

The Leng Qingqiu in his arms was extremely frail. If he turned back to fight now, he'd definitely hurt her by accident. At a time like this, he absolutely couldn't play the hot-blooded hero and spin around to fight for life and death with Magnetic Thunder and the others.

With that thought, Lu Yu didn't waste a single breath. His body swayed, one foot stamping onto the wall of a nearby building, and then he suddenly exploded into motion!

Bang!

With a heavy thud, Lu Yu's surge of force left a clearly visible footprint on the wall where he'd pushed off, and at the same time his body shot forward like an Arrow, streaking ahead with a speed like a loosed Arrow, unimaginably fast.

Whoosh!

With that burst, Lu Yu's body cut a shrill line through the air. In the next instant he shot cleanly through the twisted metal frame, his speed so fast it was impossible to track. That crashing frame couldn't even graze him!

"Magnetic Thunder, looks like that move doesn't work!"

Seeing Lu Yu slip through the massive frame so easily, Electric Bee spoke up, "This kid's too damn fast. We can't lock onto his position at all!"

"Doesn't work, and it still has to work!"

Hearing Electric Bee's words, Magnetic Thunder said, "The Controller has already given us a kill-order. This time, no matter what, we have to bring Lu Yu back!"

"If that move won't do it, then I'll use another one!"

As he spoke, in the space of a heartbeat he leaped forward, lunging toward the direction Lu Yu had darted off to, looking absolutely insane at a glance!

Seeing Magnetic Thunder like that, Blood Rose and Electric Bee traded a look, then, without another word, moved together, bodies flashing as they followed behind Magnetic Thunder, tightly chasing in the direction Lu Yu had fled.

In an instant, the few of them were moving at extreme speed, racing after Lu Yu, incredibly fast.

...

In the relentless chase, after Lu Yu and the three of them kept pursuing each other, they ended up in the section of Victoria Square that was under repair.

Right now a huge amount of construction materials were scattered on the ground. One steel pipe after another lay strewn everywhere, looking utterly chaotic at a glance.

But aside from these materials, Victoria Square was completely empty—no sign of anyone at all!

Seeing this, a cold light flashed in Lu Yu's eyes. The situation was already very clear—the riot-control vehicle he'd arranged in advance still hadn't arrived!

"Lu Yu, what should we do now?"

Faced with the scene before her, Leng Qingqiu spoke up. She looked at Lu Yu, her eyes full of questions.

"We're out of options."

Taking in what he saw, Lu Yu said, "We leave here first!"

Since the riot-control vehicle he'd arranged wasn't here, there was no way he could stay and wait. Magnetic Thunder and the others were right on his heels; he absolutely couldn't afford to waste time!

With that in mind, Lu Yu was ready to carry Leng Qingqiu out of here!

Clang clang clang clang

But just as Lu Yu was about to leave, a series of metal-clashing sounds kept ringing out, crisp and clear.

Those sounds were starkly clear against the night, sounding eerily seductive and sinister.

"Not good!"

Hearing that, Lu Yu's heart twitched. He was just about to take Leng Qingqiu and get out.

And right then, an abrupt voice cut in at the worst possible moment: "Trying to leave? Where do you think you're going!?"

With those words, in an instant, all the steel pipes that had been scattered on the ground suddenly thrust upright, plunging into the earth with heavy thuds. The pipes ringed around Lu Yu and the others, encircling them like a cage, shockingly imposing!

"Magnetic Thunder!"

Seeing this, Lu Yu's brows drew tight. He looked toward where the voice had come from, and sure enough, he saw Magnetic Thunder with Blood Rose and Electric Bee walking slowly toward him, each of their eyes surging with killing intent, utterly grim.

"You people are really an Unyielding Spirit!"

Staring at Magnetic Thunder and the others, Lu Yu said coldly, his eyes hard. He locked onto Magnetic Thunder and said, "You're insanely annoying."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's gaze grew even sharper, and the killing intent on his body slowly spilled outward.

Flutter flutter!

The moment Lu Yu's killing intent burst out, the pigeons in the trees around Victoria Square suddenly exploded into flight, like they'd been jolted by something, flapping away in panic!

Such terrifying killing intent!

Feeling that aura, Blood Rose and Electric Bee both thought the same thing, their faces full of shock. They had never imagined Lu Yu's killing intent could be this horrifying!

"Lu Yu, be a good boy and surrender."

Magnetic Thunder looked at Lu Yu and said, "There's three of us, and you're dragging around dead weight. Today, you are absolutely not our match. Once we start fighting, you will definitely lose!"
