Because this clone had not yet fully grown, had an overly childish face, and the experiment was kept secret, few people recognized at first glance that it was Huo Chao's clone.
But one person recognized it.
He Zhun stared blankly at the child standing on the console, and immediately recognized the similarities between him and Huo Chao. A second ago, he was actually still thinking about how to approach Bernard to investigate the truth of the stigmata and find out what secrets Huo Chao's clone had.
As a result, the experimental subject appeared in this way.
But... why did the other person look at him like that
He Zhun was very sensitive to other people's eyes and expressions, and he confirmed that the strange boy was indeed looking at him. And that look clearly showed that he knew him, and expressed a familiar disdain.
How can it be
He Zhun scanned his mind and confirmed that he and the other party should not have any intersection. Just as he was quickly looking for the reason for this strange look.
Huo Xianfeng had already withdrawn his gaze, and as usual, he turned off all the surveillance cameras. However, due to his height, the 1.6-meter-tall teenager had to climb onto the workbench with one hand to stand so that he could look down at the group of adult men.
"Hey, does anyone know the old man with the mask..."
Before he finished speaking, everyone came back to their senses. Some rushed out, and perhaps ordinary believers would rush forward to capture the experimental subjects to take credit for this, but these researchers who came into contact with various experimental subjects every day knew the dangers too well.
The experimental subject who was suspected to have escaped from Mr. Bernard's laboratory and was captured by the Archbishop himself must be extremely dangerous and could not be dealt with by this group of helpless researchers.
Huo Xianfeng frowned, picked up a pair of pointed tweezers, and glanced at a person who was running towards the door.
Swish!
The tweezers flew over like a bullet, instantly piercing the man's hand as he tried to open the door, and then nailed it to the wall.
“Ahh—”
The scream immediately stopped everyone's steps, but the person behind him did not stop. He stepped over him, opened the door and ran out. He shouted to the believers who were running upstairs outside,
"Experimental subject!!!"
"The experimental subject is here!!!"
The believers who were running to the upper floors outside all stopped and immediately turned around and ran towards this side.
Huo Xianfeng frowned when he heard the footsteps. He jumped off the workbench, grabbed a few people behind him, asked them a few questions quickly, and then twisted their necks.
Such a horrifying scene immediately made all the researchers even more panicked. They screamed loudly and ran away in all directions, like a group of lambs invaded by wolves.
He Zhun was the fifth person to be pinned to the ground by the opponent, who grasped his neck with one hand. He quickly reached for the concentrated anesthetic needle hidden in his sleeve and prepared to save himself.
But the next second, he suddenly heard the other party speak. The experimental subject, who had never met him before, called out his name accurately.
"He Zhun, where did Bernard go?"
"… "
He Zhun, who was pinned to the ground, was stunned. He quickly realized that not only was the other party's tone very familiar, but also that although the actions seemed forced, they did not mean to kill him.
Who is this guy
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but reality only hesitated for a second, and then quickly replied in a low voice,
"Turn left and walk 150 meters. Turn right at the second fork and walk 70 meters. There is a secret elevator that goes up to the 42nd floor and directly reaches Bernard's private residence. He has a separate personal laboratory, so he needs an elevator to transport experimental materials."
Huo Xianfeng raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect that He Zhun would give such crucial information, and so quickly and decisively.
At this moment, a group of fully armed white-robed believers suddenly broke into the door.
"Found it! He is right here!!!"
Huo Xianfeng raised his head and took a quick look, then instantly threw He Zhun out. The next second, he also flashed away from the spot.
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The densely packed high-concentration anesthetic needles were like drizzling rain, instantly turning the ground where they had just stood into a sieve.
boom!
The young man hit the wall more than ten meters away, and the huge impact instantly made him cough up blood. But apart from the uncontrollable pain, He Zhun's first reaction was to be thankful.
I'm glad I had this injury.
Otherwise, if the experimental subject killed so many people and only let him go, it would be very unreasonable. So even if the experimental subject did not hurt him, He Zhun would create some signs of injury himself.
The young man raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, then looked up and saw that the young man had already rushed directly into a group of believers. The latter was like a terrifying ghost knife, cutting a bloody path through the dense crowd.
So strong…
He Zhun had seen the daily combat training of the First Legion. The fights and fights between alphas were extremely ferocious and fierce. But the boy in front of him was different. His expression was cold and indifferent but not ferocious. His childish face and figure did not affect the sense of oppression he brought to people.
This feeling reminded He Zhun of Huo Xianfeng when he was a teenager on Earth.
After discovering the similarities between Huo Xianfeng and Huo Chao, he had asked Leinsert about the differences in their fighting styles. The latter replied that their skills were indeed similar, so similar that Leinsert had once mistakenly thought that Huo Xianfeng was Huo Chao.
But later he studied it carefully and found that Huo Chao was more skilled in fighting skills, while all of Huo Xianfeng's moves were killing skills.
Just like now, the young man did not make any unnecessary movements, and killed with one strike, with a crushing violent aesthetic.
But, why would the clone made using Huo Chao’s genes look like Huo Xianfeng
Even, the other party knew him
He Zhun couldn't understand.
boom!!!
At this moment, Huo Xianfeng grabbed the low-frequency electromagnetic cannon, carried it on one shoulder, and fired it. In an instant, a group of believers fell to the ground and convulsed.
This low-frequency electromagnetic cannon has little lethality and mainly has a paralyzing effect.
Huo Xianfeng took a few breaths, calmed down the anger and hatred in his heart, and quickly calmed down. He looked at the bloody stigmata on his arm, and his face showed disgust without hiding it. But now, he also confirmed the importance of this clone to the church.
—Even the other side is reluctant to use weapons with slightly stronger lethality.
He glanced at He Zhun out of the corner of his eye without leaving a trace, then strode forward and grabbed a few more panicked researchers, and finally focused on asking a man who seemed to have a certain status.
The young man nodded and said seriously,
"Oh, there's an elevator up to the 42nd floor. Thanks."
The researcher leader who said nothing: “…???”
He Zhun, who was watching the whole process, said: “…???”
He Zhun was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized the next second that this experimental subject was actually covering for him? He even found a scapegoat for him?!
This is not as simple as just having personal consciousness.
Huo Xianfeng silenced the man and then, before the next wave of siege came, he immediately turned left according to He Zhun's instructions to find the elevator.
He Zhun was stunned for a few seconds, took off his glasses that were in the way, then suddenly got up and rushed out.
—The opportunity has come!!!
This is He Zhun's only chance to come into contact with the experimental subject, and also the only chance to enter Bernard's sight.
Huo Xianfeng used a low-frequency electromagnetic cannon to quickly clear the way and soon found the elevator. However, there were two familiar figures standing at the door.
Cecilia, and that big mechanical guy in Mingcheng.
The mechanical puppet warrior seemed to have been simplified and upgraded. It was a little smaller than the one seen in Mingcheng before, but still more than two meters tall.
"Oh,"
The woman held the huge black sickle diagonally in one hand, blocking the elevator door, tilting her head and showing a cute smile.
"As expected of His Highness Huo Chao's genes, even though he is still a child, he is still very strong~"
"… "
Huo Xianfeng stared at her coldly. Cecilia had changed so much from the way she looked in Huo Chao's memory that he couldn't tell whether she was a friend or an enemy. But it was obvious that even if this woman Ming Cheng had let Jiang Ci off, it didn't mean she wasn't an enemy now.
Huo Xianfeng threw away the low-frequency electromagnetic cannon on his shoulder that had run out of energy and took out a dagger.
At this moment, the mechanical warrior approached with a huge axe in hand. Although it was so huge, its speed was not slow at all.
Huo Xianfeng frowned, and immediately ducked to avoid the attack. He stabbed the dagger into the opponent's wrist bone with his backhand, but it was full of machinery.
The dagger got stuck and couldn't break through the defense.
The next second, a big hand grabbed the boy's shoulder fiercely. The terrible force made his shoulder bone make a teeth-grinding sound.
boom!!!
Huo Xianfeng was thrown heavily against the wall, and the flat wall behind him collapsed with a bang, and dense spider web cracks suddenly extended. The boy's white coat, which was already stained with blood, was immediately soaked again. The debris was raised and hit him, scratching the exposed skin painfully.
He coughed twice, stood up and walked out, wiping the blood from the corner of his lips with one hand, and the red holy marks instantly spread over every inch of his skin. Huo Xianfeng pinched his left shoulder and could feel the holy marks wriggling inside repairing his broken bones.
no.
This can't go on.
Huo Xianfeng felt a little tricky as he looked at the mechanical warrior walking towards him, because this body was too weak, not to mention compared to his own, even compared to the adult Huo Chao.
Huo Xianfeng was not completely sure that he could suppress the two opponents at the same time and escape from the believers who were constantly surrounding him.
—We have to think of other ways.
Buzz!
The giant axe chopped down from the air, making a sharp sound with its extremely fast speed and terrifying force.
Huo Xianfeng didn't have enough strength to resist, so he dodged quickly. The heavy axe sank into the ground with a bang, and at the same time, the young man approached with his bare feet on the long axe handle.
The mechanical warrior immediately reached out to grab him. Huo Xianfeng took a quick look. He had tried it before and found that the dagger could not break the opponent's metal shell defense, so he rolled in mid-air to avoid it.
The next second, Mori Li's dagger aimed at the most vulnerable part of the mechanical warrior's helmet and neck. The bloody stigmata swelled out from the boy's arm, causing his muscles to swell to the extreme in an instant, even bursting his sleeves, making him look like a terrifying alien monster.
Puff!
So, this time the dagger pierced in successfully, splashing blood. Then, Huo Xianfeng used the inertia of turning in the air to pull the dagger horizontally, almost cutting off half of the man's neck.
boom!
At this moment, the mechanical warrior suddenly knelt on the ground, and the helmet and mask rolled down. The man covered his neck tightly with both hands, and made a choking sound.
The young man panted and fell to the ground behind the warrior. He tightly grasped his wrist, his eyes red. Excessive use of the stigmata put a great burden on the body, and Huo Xianfeng even felt a bursting pain in his head.
Huo Xianfeng turned around and saw the gray, lifeless, but now extremely hideous face hidden behind the helmet mask.
—Chris.
He recognized him as the archbishop who lived at the same time as Leinster.
"Ah, what a pity."
Cecilia's voice came from behind, her voice still charming and pleasant.
"Kulu was just repaired yesterday, how come it broke down again?"
Huo Xianfeng turned around with a cold expression. He might have to reassess the danger of Cecilia. At first, this woman was just an insignificant apostle beside Bai Min, but now, she can actually turn an archbishop into a mechanical puppet.
At the same time, Cecilia was naturally not as relaxed as her tone sounded. She certainly knew Chris's strength. The reason she was able to kill the opponent and turn him into a mechanical puppet was because she took advantage of the alpha's weakness and attacked him when he was most vulnerable.
But the clone of Huo Chao in front of him, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, solved the problem easily.
Is this really a clone
Isn’t it the real Huo Chao
Cecilia held the scythe horizontally in front of her, with a hint of fear in her eyes.
"But even so, I cannot allow you to continue..."
Before she could finish her words, she saw the boy approaching quickly. Cecilia reacted quickly and fought back.
But Huo Xianfeng's purpose was not to attack her, but something else. So he held the woman's sickle against his hand, grinning with a sinister smile.
"Long time no see. You dare to fight me now, Cecilia?"
“…!!!”
The woman paused, her pupils suddenly dilated, and a familiar fear instantly crawled up her spine.
If Huo Chao, who is naturally cheerful and gentle, tried to learn 60% of Huo Xianfeng's cold and arrogant appearance, the entire followers of the Phantom God Cult would be in awe and even fear of him.
So at this moment, the effect of using this face is very good.
"you… "
At this moment, Cecilia seemed to see again the familiar, cold, majestic and superior Son of God.
At this moment, Huo Xianfeng stretched out his hand like lightning, rushed over, and grabbed the woman's earring tightly.
In an instant, the boy's low roar and the woman's scream overlapped at the same time—
"Cheng Yue!!!"
"Cheng Yue!!!"
The brilliant snow light burst out in Huo Xianfeng's palm!
Cecilia opened her eyes wide. As the second-generation master, she was deprived of her control authority and was even knocked out.
The folded space unfolded, and the silver mecha transformed and combined, expanding instantly in the narrow space. It rumbled and broke through more than a dozen floors, then broke through the outer wall and quickly flew to the upper floor.
"Who are you? Why can you directly rob me of my control authority?"
A cold mechanical female voice came from the cockpit.
Huo Xianfeng controlled the mecha to quickly break through the intercepting mecha fighter, but his tone was still relaxed.
"Why, you don't want to call me Huo Chao?"
Cheng Yue was silent for a moment, then spoke,
"Even His Highness Huo Chao needs to be connected via a neural chain when driving a mecha."
But at this time, Chengyue's white fluorescent nerve chain floated in the cockpit, but did not connect to the back of the pilot's neck as normal.
And although Huo Chao can control other people's mechas, that is usually below level A. A mecha like Cheng Yue, which has reached double S level, cannot be controlled by anyone other than the owner, not to mention that there is no need for a neural chain connection.
But the seemingly arrogant and cold-hearted boy did not answer its question, but raised another question.
"What does Cecilia want to do?"
Huo Xianfeng frowned.
"If she killed Bai Min, you probably wouldn't acknowledge her as the second-generation master."
The main AI of mechas above double S level is almost extremely sophisticated, and the master authority can only be transferred by the driver himself. If forced to take over, the original AI program must be destroyed first and a new one rebuilt.
But Chengyue was not formatted and destroyed, which means that Bai Min took the initiative to transfer his master authority to Cecilia. Just like Huo Chao left the forbidden abyss to Huo Xianfeng.
"Sorry, this involves my privacy procedures, I can't comment."
After a pause, Cheng Yue seemed to have detected something and reminded,
"But you can't escape from here. Elder Mandela is already on his way to intercept you."
"escape?"
Huo Xianfeng sneered.
"I'm here to kill people, why am I running away?"
Cheng Yue: “…”
Confirmed.
It is indeed not His Highness Huo Chao.
The sunny and smiling brother Huo Chao in Minmin's words could not say something like "I'm here to kill people".
Cheng Yue didn't know what strange drugs Bernard had injected into the clone to make it have this kind of personality. But it couldn't resist now because the opponent's mental strength was too strong.
Even beyond its detection range.
The mental strength threshold of Huo Chao's clone exceeds that of Huo Chao himself
This is simply impossible.
Cheng Yue couldn't understand. But now, it couldn't do anything except follow the orders of the cloned boy.
Huo Xianfeng casually asked: "How much energy is left?"
Cheng Yue replied: "100%"
Huo Xianfeng: “!”
It's actually full?! So rich? ! !
You have to know that it is very expensive to refill the energy of a double S mecha, and it is not just a matter of money, but the energy of mechas is also divided into different levels. A good energy reactor is expensive.
The energy supply of the army's mechas is limited and distributed in fixed quantities according to the military rank and mecha level. Although the Jiang family is almost as rich as a country, Jiang Ci has always avoided relying on the power of the Jiang family, and everything is done according to the military regulations.
Therefore, Bai Ze's energy is rarely filled up, usually 60 to 70 percent. Because it is very picky, and only wants the best energy.
Therefore, Huo Xianfeng was a little surprised when he heard that Chengyue was actually full.
"It seems that woman treats you well."
More than good. Cecilia always used the best energy to charge Chengyue, ensuring that Chengyue's energy was full at all times. She usually only used another mecha, Moyu, in battle, which was the long sickle, which was an S-class mecha.
Huo Xianfeng sighed, and the next second he pulled the energy output valve to the maximum without hesitation. Then he rushed directly into the intercepting mecha fleet on the opposite side.
boom!!!
Cecilia, who had crawled out of the ruins, heard a huge explosion. She turned around suddenly and looked out from the big hole next to her. She saw that the familiar silver-white mecha was fighting directly with a group of mecha troops that were chasing and blocking it.
Moreover, he didn't care about the damage to his mecha at all, and just attacked violently and head-on. He didn't even dodge the incoming artillery fire, and didn't even open the defense shield, but directly used the external machine to resist, and then hit back violently.
Cecilia has always taken good care of Chengyue, even more than her own mecha, and she carefully maintains it once a week. Although her skills are slightly worse than Jiang Jinsheng's, she is more gentle. She is reluctant to use it in battle and fills it with the best energy.
Chengyue looks as brand new as if it had just appeared. Every inch of its metal shell is shiny and sparkling, and even glitters in the sun.
But now, not only is the surface of the external machine scratched and damaged, but several places have been blackened by artillery fire.
This is just like sending a beautiful little princess to dig coal and have her fight with the coal thieves!!!
Cecilia watched the whole process in a daze.
"Cheng Yue!!!"
She knelt on the ground, screaming heart-wrenchingly, and felt as if her heart was bleeding.
Cecilia's beloved Chengyue was ruined.
Ruined!!!
