Chapter 428 He's too strong!
In the square of Nanshan City.
Li Menghan stared at the fragments of the alien spaceship falling from the sky. He could feel his palms sweating.
That "fire control technique" he just used was incredibly powerful. He himself hadn't expected that he could actually blow up a flying saucer larger than a city.
Zhao Qiang and the other members of the superpowered team all surrounded Li Menghan.
The way people looked at him was as if they were looking at a real deity.
"Commander Li! What was the name of that move you just used? It was amazing!" the short-haired girl asked excitedly.
Li Menghan touched her nose and said somewhat embarrassedly:
"This is called fire control. My dad taught me it."
He knew perfectly well that this wasn't his own power at all. It was his father providing him with a cheat code behind the scenes.
However, he certainly couldn't tell the truth in front of these team members. This was his best chance to establish his authority.
Li Menghan pretended to be very serious and coughed twice.
"Cough cough. This spell is very tiring. I need to rest for a bit."
"Zhao Qiang, take some men and check the surrounding area. See if there are any injured civilians. Also, collect the fragments of those alien spacecraft; have the higher-ups send people to remove them later."
Zhao Qiang replied loudly, "Yes, Commander!"
The team members immediately began to take action.
Li Menghan found a clean step and sat down. He took out his phone and glanced at the screen.
There was a WeChat message from my dad on my phone.
"Well done. Keep it up."
Upon seeing this message, Li Menghan broke into a very happy smile.
He knew that although his father said he didn't care about him, he still cared about him deep down.
……
at the same time.
In space, very, very far away from Earth.
Inside that giant, silver-white mothership that stretched for hundreds of kilometers.
The red alarm lights in the control center were still flashing incessantly.
The leading reptilian officer stood in front of the enormous screen. His expression turned extremely grim.
He watched helplessly as the UFO he had sent to Nanshan City was blasted apart by a red light.
He was very familiar with the power of that red light.
This is the power emanating from that mutant named Li Ze.
"Sir!"
A subordinate rushed over in a panic to report to the leader:
"We have also lost contact with all the other UFOs on Earth."
"That human named Li Ze used a power we can't understand to lock all our flying saucers in mid-air."
"We are currently incapable of attacking Earth."
Upon hearing this report, the Reptile Commander angrily slammed his four fingers on the control panel.
"This Li Ze! What kind of monster is he?!"
"How could such a powerful mutant possibly appear on Earth!"
The reptilian commander paced back and forth in the control center, his mind racing as he considered countermeasures.
He knew that if they confronted Li Ze head-on, they would likely suffer a great loss. Li Ze's power was beyond the scope of their technological understanding.
However, they cannot simply abandon Earth as their experimental field.
The crawler commander stopped in his tracks. He looked at the information about Li Menghan on the screen.
A sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
"Since we can't beat that mutant named Li Ze."
"Then let's start with the people around him."
The crawler commander pointed at Li Menghan on the screen.
"This human. He is Li Ze's son."
"That red light just now came from his hand."
"However, according to our energy detectors, this human named Li Menghan does not possess any powerful abilities. He is just an ordinary Earthling."
"That attack just now was entirely Li Ze's doing, helping him out from behind."
The reptilian officer gave a cold laugh.
He loudly issued the order:
"Immediately deploy all of our offensive combat robots."
"Send them all to Nanshan City!"
"At all costs, concentrate all firepower to attack Li Menghan!"
"As long as we capture him or kill him, Li Ze will definitely lose his mind. Then, we'll have a chance to deal with him."
Upon hearing the order, the subordinate immediately shouted, "Understood, sir!"
soon.
At the bottom of the giant mothership, countless small hatches were open.
Thousands upon thousands of black spheres flew out of the hatch.
These spheres rapidly unfolded in space, transforming into black combat robots, each three meters tall.
These robots are armed with highly advanced energy weapons.
They were incredibly fast. They flew directly towards Earth, heading towards Nanshan City.
……
In the square of Nanshan City.
Li Menghan sat on the steps and rested for more than ten minutes.
He felt that his strength had almost recovered.
He stood up, ready to go find Zhao Qiang and the others.
Just at this time.
A very piercing sound suddenly came from the sky.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Li Menghan looked up.
His eyes widened suddenly.
In the sky, thousands of black combat robots appeared in dense formation.
These robots fell like rain, directly towards the square.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The robot landed on the ground, creating large craters in the square.
After they landed, they immediately raised the energy weapons in their hands.
"Sizzle!"
Beams of blue energy shot directly towards Li Menghan.
Startled, Li Menghan quickly hid behind a large flower bed nearby.
"boom!"
The energy beam struck the flower bed, shattering it into pieces.
Zhao Qiang and his team of superpowered individuals heard the explosion and rushed over.
When they saw these thousands of black combat robots.
Everyone's face turned extremely pale.
"Commander! What are these things?!" the short-haired girl shouted.
Li Menghan gritted his teeth. He answered loudly:
"These are alien combat robots!"
"Watch out, everyone! Their weapons are incredibly powerful!"
Li Menghan peeked out from behind the flower bed.
He saw it. Those robots completely ignored the local people.
Their target was very clear. They all surrounded him in the direction he was hiding.
Li Menghan knew perfectly well that these robots were after him.
He shouted, "Everyone, spread out! Don't huddle together!"
Li Menghan pushed forward with both hands.
He screamed in his mind, "Fire!"
He wanted to do what he had just done: use the fire control techniques his father had taught him to burn all the robots to ashes.
but.
This time.
In his hand, only a very, very small red flame emerged.
This flame couldn't even break through a robot's energy shield.
Li Menghan was stunned.
He looked at the flame in his hand, his heart filled with despair.
"Dad! What are you doing?! Help me!"
Li Menghan shouted loudly in her heart.
However, there was no response.
In Han City. Inside the study in Beichen Garden.
Li Ze sat in a chair, looking at the scene reflected in the water mirror.
He saw his son surrounded by thousands of robots.
There wasn't a trace of anxiety on his face.
The older brother, standing nearby, said with great concern, "Boss, the young master is in danger. These alien robots are too powerful. Should I bring the cyborgs over to provide support?"
Li Ze shook his head.
He said very calmly:
"Need not."
"I just withdrew the magic I left on him."
"He can only rely on himself now."
The older brother asked, puzzled, "Why? Boss. Young Master is just an ordinary person. How could he possibly defeat so many robots?"
Li Ze looked at the water mirror.
His eyes became very deep.
He said slowly:
"Oldest brother, have you forgotten?"
"Menghan, that child. He suffered so much with his mother since he was little."
"He has a very stubborn personality. Deep down, he has an absolutely indomitable spirit."
"This drive is his greatest potential."
Li Ze leaned back in his chair and continued:
"I helped him before because I wanted him to know that there are more powerful forces in this world."
"But if I keep helping him, he'll never grow up. He'll always be a rich kid who only knows how to rely on others."
"Now, he has encountered a truly desperate situation."
"At this moment, he can only rely on himself. He must unleash the power within him."
"If he survives today, he will become a real man."
"If he's dead."
Li Ze's voice turned extremely cold:
"Then he can't be my son, Li Ze's son."
Upon hearing Li Ze's words, Lao Yi stood up very straight and said nothing more.
He knew that his boss was putting him through a very cruel, but also very necessary, test.
……
In the square of Nanshan City.
The battle became extremely fierce.
The members of the superpowered team, despite their best efforts, were simply no match for the thousands of robots.
Zhao Qiang was struck by a beam of energy. A hole was punched through his shoulder. He collapsed to the ground, coughing up blood.
The short-haired girl's leg was also injured. She was kneeling on the ground and couldn't stand up.
The other team members also suffered very serious injuries.
Li Menghan looked at her teammates who had fallen around her.
He watched the black robots getting closer and closer.
His heart was filled with extreme anger and despair.
He knew it. His dad wasn't coming to save him.
He has nothing left now.
No money. No magic. No bodyguards.
He was just an ordinary college student.
but.
He didn't want to die. He also didn't want to see his teammates die here.
"ah--!"
Li Menghan raised her head and let out a tremendous roar.
That roar contained all his resentment, all his anger, and all his stubbornness.
In this final moment of life and death.
Inside Li Menghan's body.
Sudden.
A very strange change has occurred.
He felt something within his blood, as if it had been ignited.
A very, very hot current of air flowed rapidly from his heart throughout his entire body.
This current of energy was not magical power given to him by Li Ze.
It was his own strength!
Li Menghan's eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
His hands were clenched into fists.
He looked at the black robot at the very front.
Li Menghan did not hesitate at all.
He charged straight at the robot.
He didn't use magic. He just used his most primal fists.
"Bang!"
Li Menghan punched the robot in the chest.
"Snap!"
A very crisp sound.
That incredibly hard robot made of alien metal.
Li Menghan's punch actually punched a huge hole in it!
The robot's energy core was destroyed. It collapsed to the ground and exploded.
Li Menghan looked at her fist.
He himself couldn't believe that he possessed such great strength.
However, he didn't have time to think about that anymore.
He felt the power within his body growing stronger and stronger.
He roared and charged straight into the group of robots.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Li Menghan was like a tiger that had completely gone mad.
His speed was unbelievable. His strength was astonishing.
With every punch he throws, a robot is instantly destroyed.
With each kick he makes, several robots are sent flying.
The blue energy beams struck him, but they couldn't even penetrate his clothes.
His body surface seemed to have an invisible protective film.
The superpowered team members were lying on the ground.
They looked at Li Menghan, who seemed like a god of war.
Everyone's eyes were filled with utter shock and awe.
"Commander... he's too strong!" Zhao Qiang shouted loudly, enduring the pain.
In just ten minutes.
Li Menghan was alone.
Forced by force, thousands of black alien robots were...
They were all smashed into a pile of scrap metal.
The entire square was littered with robot parts and flickering flames.
Li Menghan stood in the pile of scrap metal.
He was panting heavily. He was covered in sweat and dust.
However, his back was very straight.
His eyes had become more resolute and mature than ever before.
At this moment.
He finally understood.
True power is not given by others, but earned through one's own efforts.
He, Li Menghan, has finally grown into a real man.
