Chương 90: Choice

Under the azure sky, the shattered space elevator transforms into sparks that fall from the heavens.

The passengers had no chance to resist and died on the spot.

Lin Shuxuan could only be thankful for his humility; if he had been in the elevator, he would have been badly injured, if not killed.

The intense heat melted the metal into molten molten metal, which then poured down from the sky onto the waiting crowd.

Terrified screams could be heard incessantly.

Using his Dragon Fist to deflect the incoming fragments, Lin Shuxuan looked up at the mecha in mid-air.

Even after the space elevator connecting to the orbit was destroyed, it still did not leave.

The mecha's head turned to face the crowd below.

The wings of light behind him twisted, and just as the action was being made clear, a powerful wave of air rushed towards us.

It felt like Mount Tai was pressing down on you.

This is the power of a star-level mech. With its overwhelming size and power, even martial artists have no way to fight against it.

Soil and blood flew everywhere, the lawn was abandoned in its entirety, the earth cracked, and huge fissures stretched into the distance.

Li Rufeng... Lin Shuxuan silently recited this name in his heart. The closer the mecha was to him, the more he could feel that sense of intimacy.

He can use the Star Orbit Society's abilities to directly take over the mech that is currently slaughtering military academy students.

But the price was utter disgrace.

From the most pragmatic perspective, even now, he still has no reason to pilot a mecha.

Although the mecha piloted by Li Rufeng was frantic, all its attacks cleverly avoided his location.

Li Rufeng wanted to kill everyone present.

except him.

Lin Shuxuan clenched his right fist and then relaxed it, unable to make a decision.

"ah!!"

A sharp scream rang in my ears.

A girl collapsed to the ground, her ankle swollen and bleeding, clearly unable to run anymore.

Behind her, the towering mech slowly stepped forward, its energy core rotating, the rising heat distorting the air and blood.

Lin Shuxuan clenched his teeth tightly.

The intense impulse made his five senses incredibly sharp at that moment.

His strong instincts told him that he could take control of the mech in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Not only could they save everyone present, but they could also join the main battle and save the entire military academy.

But the price was too high.

He was not alone; he had three relatives in Xinhai City.

What will happen to his aunt and uncle if he is convicted by the federal government?

The bright future he promised has not yet been realized. If he cannot deliver, what face does he have to act arrogantly in front of his aunt?

Just as I was hesitating...

A blond figure stood between the girl and the mecha.

Luo Jiuge turned around and gently comforted her:

"Don't be afraid, as long as I'm here, you won't get hurt."

He turned his head to look at the mech that was slowly approaching.

"Can you still run?"

The girl with the injured ankle wore a complex expression that was hard to describe. She seemed to be stunned and didn't even notice that Luo Jiuge was no longer looking at her. She shook her head blankly.

"Even if you can't run anymore, get up and keep running. I'll stop the mechs."

"Hey, you over there."

Luo Jiuge said to Lin Shuxuan:

"I know you're a coward, come and lend a hand."

A satisfied smile spread across his face:

"I have to say, I won!"

Lin Shuxuan had no interest in arguing with him about winning or losing. He simply carried the girl on his shoulders and watched Luo Jiuge charge towards the mecha like Don Quixote charging a windmill.

The disparity in the situation was so stark it was despairing.

But Luo Jiuge is, after all, a descendant of the Nine Clans, so perhaps he has some hidden trump card... Lin Shuxuan comforted himself in this way.

Then they saw Luo Jiuge being cut in half at the waist by a beam of light, her shattered body exploding like fireworks.

A surge of immense anger suddenly filled Lin Shuxuande's chest... What kind of idiot was this? Luo Jiuge made a grand statement and then committed suicide? Was this his plan?

Humiliation, what a humiliation...

The girl with the broken ankle had no time to grieve for the hero who saved her before she found herself abandoned on the ground by Lin Shuxuan.

He's going to abandon me and run for his life!... Despair left her powerless to blame anyone.

But then, a dark light shone around her.

It was as if hundreds of bronze bells were ringing in unison, hundreds of poems were being sung in unison, and sacred and melodious music was descending from the sky and flowing slowly.

Lin Shuxuan was enveloped in thick, inky black water, and slowly ascended into the air like an angel being guided.
