Chapter 19 - Land Armor Takes Flight

The levels of firearms cannot be equated with the levels of cold weapons or supernatural creatures.

For example, an undeveloped level-one high-quality steel longsword versus an undeveloped heavy cannon.

No matter how skillfully a high-quality steel longsword is wielded, it's difficult to generate significant lethality.

However, an ordinary person operating a heavy cannon can also cause terrifying destruction, capable of killing swathes of ordinary Superpower Users and powerful Exotic Beasts.

Even among firearms, the power varies greatly, such as comparing ordinary pistols to sniper rifles and Gatling guns, there is simply no comparison.

Similarly, a level-one (unupgraded) pistol is vastly different from a fighter jet.

Therefore—

A level ten Firepower Flying Disc still has the hope to kill supernatural creatures far beyond level ten in real terms.

"Upgrade my personal level as well."

He checked his personal level data:

[Lv.12: 187/4 (Upgradable)]

These experiences were from upgrading the Marvel Isolation Box over the past three days.

In other words, he now has more than a hundred Marvel Isolation Boxes.

He activated it with a thought and began the upgrade directly.

An invisible force appeared, rapidly enhancing his entire body including his limbs, organs, even mysterious pathways and nerve responses.

Now, the enhancement, although—

Because the quality of experience is very high, each upgrade is actually substantial. 

But ever since reaching level eleven, his advancements have become subtle, no longer causing a surge in aura, even as his physique and power grow immensely, the effect is not very pronounced.

Unless it is someone like Jiang Yiyi who can sense biological strength, other Superpower Users would find it hard to detect his state without careful sensing.

The upgrade ended quickly:

[Lv.13: 183/8 (Upgradable)]

"Continue upgrading."

Yang Yuan decided to use all the experience in one go since keeping it was of no use.

[Lv.14: 175/16 (Upgradable)]

...

[Lv.15: 159/32 (Upgradable)]

...

[Lv.16: 127/64 (Upgradable)]

...

[Lv.17: 63/128 (Not upgradable)]

...

Seventeenth level.

Yang Yuan felt the surge of power, feeling a lot more confident, and then glanced at the experience of the Power Armor.

[Power Armor LV.6: 5720/3200 (Upgradable)]

Three days had passed, and the Power Armor could be upgraded again.

He didn't save it and went ahead to upgrade it directly.

In the next instant, a white light that only he could see enveloped the Power Armor on his body, and he felt the Power Armor slightly squirming as it was being optimized.

However, he wasn't sure what exactly had changed.

About a minute later, the Power Armor upgrade was complete.

[Power Armor LV.7: 2521/6400 (Land Armor, now capable of low-altitude flight; radar maximum radius 2000 meters; not upgradable)]

"It can fly now?"

Yang Yuan was delighted at heart, immediately stepping out from underneath the Firepower Flying Disc, and with a thought, his limbs burst into white flames.

A thrust was generated, slowly elevating his body with his thoughts.

"I'm really flying!"

He was so thrilled he almost shouted for joy.

Although he had flown with the Firepower Flying Disc before, flying on his own was much more enjoyable than being carried along.

Moreover, since the Power Armor is connected to the neurons, he could fly however he wished, the four engines on his limbs were enough to easily adjust direction and maintain balance.

Of course, at first, it would be a bit awkward, causing him to wobble here and there.

But Yang Yuan's sense of balance and adaptability was very strong, and it didn't take long before he was completely accustomed to this flying style.

However, due to the overlapping spaces in the Ancient Ruins, he was wary of accidentally entering another space, so he didn't dare to fly for too long.

Half an hour later.

Yang Yuan returned to the ground, raised his hand to shoot a beam of light into the distance.

"Boom!"

A millstone-sized stone ten meters away was directly blasted two or three meters away by the impact.

"Not bad, but I didn't plan on using this to kill enemies, just looking cool is enough."

He contentedly returned to the Safe House, glanced at the sleeping Zhao Jiayan and Jiang Yiyi, then checked the food supply.

"The food is running low!"

He noticed, even including the Exotic Beast Blood with rich energy, could only last them five days.

And these days, their food had been very monotonous, as the jerky and compressed biscuits were finished, leaving only Exotic Beast Blood, they were almost becoming vampires.

"Within three days... we must head out!"

Yang Yuan glanced at the distant building clusters.

In that building cluster that only appeared at night, shadows loomed, and it seemed like a city within, illuminated brightly.

And those eerie figures that kept an eye on them before no longer paid attention, not staring at them persistently.

"Whether the 'Gate of Space' can be accomplished is uncertain. We can't exit from the edge, maybe tomorrow we should try finding an exit from inside?"

This thought flashed through Yang Yuan's mind, and just as he was about to resume carpentry, he suddenly heard roars of beasts, sounds of collisions, and cries from afar.

Besides that, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, as if many things were hunting someone.

That direction wasn't towards the building ruins but rather outer areas.

...

"Howl howl!!"

"Boom boom boom!"

"Dong!!"

"Everyone hang in there, there's a light ahead, it might be the main force..."

The shouting came from afar, the voice sounding somewhat familiar.

Zhao Jiayan and Jiang Yiyi, who were resting, were startled awake, quickly got up, assuming trouble, and drew their weapons, on guard.

However, they were not overly worried now, as they weren't so timid anymore.

All because Yang Yuan was there, ordinary threats couldn't harm them.

"How did those guys get over there?"

Yang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly, then took out the Marvel pistol, looking expressionlessly in that direction, while observing through the radar of the Firepower Flying Disc.

Soon, a group of eight covered in blood appeared in sight, surprisingly the eight Decimation Squad members he had forcibly led to fight monsters before.

Only now, the eight were in a miserable state, not only dirty but also covered in wounds.

Behind them, a large group of humanoid creatures roared and chased with great speed, seemingly unwilling to stop until they were killed.

The monsters looked somewhat like zombies but were not hopping in pursuit but rather frenziedly marching, very fast.

"Those are the eight Superpower Users from before."

Zhao Jiayan also recognized them, her vision sharper than Yang Yuan expected.

And at this time, those eight Superpower Users had seen the massive Firepower Flying Disc suspended above the light, and they all froze.

"Holy crap, it's that... it's that boss who took us to fight monsters!"

The slightly chubby man 'Yueyue' shouted excitedly.

Tan Zhiming waved hastily, shouting, "Big brother, help!"

"Boss, save us..."

The group shouted excitedly, seeing hope for survival.

Even the reserved Wu Chengxin urgently called, "Friend, lend a hand, and we'll owe you one..."

Yang Yuan curled his lip; who cared about their kindness?

But, they had at least served as tools for him, and besides, he wanted to know how they managed to cross this Ancient Ruins and reach the other side.

Based on his experience, they probably needed to fly over from a height of more than a kilometer.

Could they fly too?

As he thought about it, he patiently waited until the people and monsters were within a hundred meters, before raising the Marvel pistol, aiming away from the eight, targeting the zombie creatures behind them.

"Boss, use the Firepower Flying Disc, your pistol is powerful, but these zombies are strong spirits..."

The slightly chubby man 'Yueyue' was anxious seeing Yang Yuan intending to use a pistol on the zombies.

However, before he could finish, Yang Yuan had already pulled the trigger.

"Boom——"

In a deafening roar, the zombie horde chasing them was blasted into pieces.

A horrifying shockwave swept through.

The eight reflexively ducked, avoiding the shockwave that could have thrown them away, one must admit their reaction speed was quite fast.
