Worldwide Auto Transformation: Invincibility Starts With Ultimate Enhancement

Chapter 23: Chapter 22: The Madness of the Ascension Sect! Xu Gu Calmly Faces the Assassination!

"Isn't it dangerous just to guard outside? After all, the opponent is the Ascension Sect, personal protection would be more reliable."

Liang Wu, a member of the blue-white team, was relatively cautious, always serving as the strategist of the team.

They kindly offered free close protection, but were rejected by Xu Gu with just one sentence. Without even understanding the situation, anyone would feel indignant and angry.

Therefore, he agreed to the proposal of the others, to teach Xu Gu a small lesson.

However, as the matter unfolded, he began to feel a bit anxious, afraid that something might go wrong. After all, an S-class emerging only every few years in Xia City was not something to be taken lightly!

Wang Lanlan had already transformed into a sleek, strikingly cool, dark blue female auto man, armed with a sniper rifle, quietly finding a suitable sniping point to lie in wait.

Looking at Liang Wu's message in the team chat room, Wang Lanlan frowned and said,

"It shouldn't be a problem.

"He still has a dozen 30-level bodyguards by his side; they shouldn't all be D-level, their combat power shouldn't be too weak, they're competent for his immediate vicinity. We protect from the outside, handling his outer perimeter.

"Even if there's trouble we can't deal with, these bodyguards can buy us time to come over.

"I also wanted to provide close protection, but he refused. Rather than quarreling and giving the Ascension Sect an opportunity, it's better to do something."

She naturally couldn't let the team members act recklessly.

Everything was under control in her mind.

She always pursued being careful in her actions.

"Received!"

"As expected of the captain! Not only flawless, but also gives that arrogant kid a little lesson."

The team members replied uniformly with 'received'. They were actually anxious, but after hearing Captain Wang Lanlan's analysis, they felt reassured.

While speaking, they had already settled around the estate.

...

Xu Gu's radar range was extremely broad, and he naturally noticed the movements of the blue-white team, feeling somewhat helpless. Wasn't this causing more trouble for him?

A group of C-class auto-men in the 20s and 30s level, who can they protect? They couldn't even protect themselves.

Though he was touched by their actions, he still intended to contact Wang Lanlan to have them withdraw, and if not, he would have Xia An handle it.

But just then,

Suddenly, a violent noise came from the sky.

It sounded like Divine Thunder exploding.

Subsequently, a massive cargo helicopter dove towards the Star Sky Manor where Xu Gu was located.

"Damn it!"

"They're insane! Where did they get a cargo helicopter?"

"Take it down for me!"

Wang Lanlan's pupils constricted, her face turned ugly, and she even directly stood up, a person-high, dark blue sniper rifle, gleaming with dazzling brilliance, rested on her shoulder.

In an instant, it completed its charge, ready to fire.

However,

Boom!

Not only was there danger overhead, but dozens of modified armed off-road vehicles simultaneously emerged from all around, not transformed from auto-men, crashing straight towards the blue-white team's base and exploding directly!

The power was no small matter!

Just as they planned to fire and knock down the cargo helicopter, the members of the blue-white team, including Wang Lanlan, instantly suffered injuries.

"Captain!"

"We're under attack! Many Steel Mutants! They're at level 30!"

"They're strong!"

In the team communications, came the exclamations of the team members.

These armed off-road vehicles carried Steel Mutants whose minds had been corroded by the Mechanical Abyss.

These Mutants, having been tainted by special Mechanical Abyss forces, retained little awareness or intelligence, were failures, but their destructive power was astonishing, equipped with some intelligence, they cooperated and used weapons, far stronger than the Steel Beasts!

Before the armed off-road vehicle self-destructed, these Steel Mutants had already leaped down in advance, wielding weapons glowing with blue light.

With crimson eyes, like a torrent of steel, they charged at everyone.

Wang Lanlan, caught off guard by the bomb blast, was flung, heart pounding and anxious, yet still, she immediately twisted her body, turning mid-air, the sniper rifle on her shoulder spouting blue flames.

"Boom!"

The high-pressure electric bullet from the sniper rifle shot out, mighty as thunder, falling straight among the attacking Steel Mutants.

The leading Steel Mutant hadn't even touched the bullet before the horrific blast wave pressed its chest inward.

Following that, its body exploded violently, various steel parts shooting in all directions, resembling a Steel Beast.

Yet, the other Steel Mutants seemed to show no fear, charging even more fiercely.

"Fight first! Solve the immediate problem, then go support! Xu Gu has bodyguards, they can hold on for a while!"

With veins bulging on her forehead, Wang Lanlan felt immense pressure, the Ascension Sect's madness was frightening even to her!

Skillfully, she slung the sniper rifle onto her back, drew two aurora swords from her waist, and dashed toward the Steel Mutants like a burst of speed.

"Boom!"

As a B-level, 30-level, her power in Xia City was undoubtedly top-tier, naturally turning the Steel Mutants into weak opponents, with one sword cut per mutant.

Seeing the situation stabilizing, pressure easing, Wang Lanlan took a deep breath and finally focused on Xu Gu's situation.

And it was this glance that almost caused Wang Lanlan to lose composure and go berserk.

She saw,

On the cargo helicopter in the sky, groups of Steel Mutants, shrouded in dense black mist, descended like prehistoric beasts, towards Xu Gu.

While Xu Gu stood in the manor, directly facing these Ascension Sect Steel Mutants!

"Why is he alone! Where are the dozen 30-level bodyguards he mentioned?!"

"He doesn't have bodyguards at all! Damn it! What recklessness! Ignorance!"

Wang Lanlan's power core felt as though it was suddenly grabbed tightly, nearly halting, with panic written all over her face.

If Xu Gu had no bodyguards, faced with Steel Mutants thrown from the cargo helicopter by the Ascension Sect, it would be a dead end!

Wang Lanlan had no time to think, abandoning the Steel Mutants in front of her, rushing madly ahead.

Instantly transforming into her auto form, dual machine guns rose on the car body, sweeping at the Steel Mutants behind, planning to rescue Xu Gu.

However.

"Bang."

Along the way, standing several hundred meters away, appeared a giant Steel Mutant, colored green rather than the usual cheap white of ordinary Steel Mutants, with double horns on its head, looking fierce, standing three meters tall, exuding an extremely strong aura.

This was an Elite Steel Mutant!

"Level 30, Elite Steel Mutant."

Wang Lanlan's breathing became rapid, her power core running in overdrive, filled with unparalleled unease and despair.

In terms of strength, a level 30 Elite Steel Mutant equaled her!

But she wasn't adept at close combat.

"Support? Dream on!"

The Elite Steel Mutant let out an incredibly violent voice, eyes glinting malevolently, swiftly moved its body, and swung a scythe, slicing through the air.

"Not level 30! Level 35?!" Wang Lanlan's pupils contracted, blocking with her twin swords, immense power surged as if a mountain was pressing down.

Boom!

Her body flew backward, the D-level light sword in her hand showing faint signs of cracking.

At the same time.

"Damn it! They actually sent out the Elite Steel Mutants!"

"This Ascension Sect is insane!"

"Help me!"

Wang Lanlan's team members' near despairing calls came through, her face turned bleak.

Especially when she cast her gaze towards Xu Gu.

The feeling of despair almost became tangible.

Opposite Xu Gu stood not only several Steel Mutants but also a number of Elite Steel Mutants! Their aura even surpassed the Elite Steel Mutant right in front of her.

"How could this be..."

Wang Lanlan's heart was in turmoil, eyes filled with terror and despair, disbelief at how far the Ascension Sect would go, did they intend to assassinate the president with such a large-scale operation?

All to assassinate a newly awakened S-class novice?

But,

As she prepared to fight to the death, forsaking the possibility of survival, aiming to drag along as many Steel Mutants as possible with her.

A loud explosion came from the distance.

"Boom!"

Xu Gu made his move.

In front of the blue-white team members, Steel Mutants and Elite Steel Mutants that were nightmares were no more than weak opponents before Xu Gu.

Still cutting down one at a time.

"Too weak! Too weak! They're all too weak!"

"And this is all? You really underestimated me!"

And Xu Gu's domineering words, unbearable at times, echoed back.

Such a scene shocked the heavens and the earth.
