Chapter 125 Nuclear Bombs are a Treasure
Pei Qi did not turn around, but pressed the switch on the atomic decomposition machine.
"Pop".
A gap was instantly dug into the seemingly indestructible blast-proof stone overhead, and a ray of blinding sunlight carrying dark red radioactive dust shone through the gap.
Within a fraction of a second of the gap opening, Pei Qi's tactical goggles' UI was instantly flooded with a blinding crimson alarm.
The Geiger counter built into the MekaSuit mech suit emitted a high-frequency beeping sound.
Several Blackwatch soldiers who were nearby gagged violently as soon as they inhaled a breath of air that had leaked in through the crack, and their exposed skin began to visibly turn into sickly red spots.
"Then, if you don't want to die here with your body covered in sores and oozing yellow fluid, each of you should swallow two pills."
Without turning his head, Pei Qi pulled a white plastic medicine bottle without any label from his inventory and threw it behind him, hitting the commander squarely in the arms.
RadAway, a specialty of the [HBM Nuclear Technology Module], can completely and forcibly remove radiation from the body in a short time.
Then Pei Qi's figure suddenly rose from the ground and flew out through the gap.
Then, the blast-proof stone was immediately put back in its original position, completely blocking the gap.
The whole process took less than a second, so fast that it seemed like a hallucination.
The fortress fell silent once more, with only the floating fluorite still emitting a faint glow.
The commander slumped against the cold wall, the gun slipping from his hand and falling to the ground.
His once unwavering commitment to materialism was almost completely shattered at this moment.
"Sir—what should we do now?" The adjutant's voice was filled with barely concealed fear.
"What should we do?"
The commander gave a bitter smile, looked up at the dome that wasn't even a crack in it, his eyes filled with a deep sense of powerlessness and awe.
"What else can we do? Just stay in this can and pray."
"After all, what can we do when faced with an entity that can use nuclear bombs as surfboards and fabricate things that defy the laws of physics?"
The epicenter of the explosion at a Manhattan intersection.
This place has been completely transformed into a dead zone composed of glass and charcoal.
-
The once towering skyscraper, dozens of stories high, was snapped in half by the violent shockwave, and the steel bars twisted and melted under temperatures of thousands of degrees.
The ground was covered with a thick layer of glassy crystals that were still radiating a dark red, intense heat.
The air was thick with deadly ionizing radiation, and thick black smoke shot straight into the sky.
In mid-air, Pei Qi was steadily hovering at a height of 100 meters above the ground using the mecha's flight module.
He stared at the seemingly lifeless ruins below, which had become a desolate wasteland after the explosion.
"It's so quiet."
Pei Qi sneered. The super hunter that had crawled out of the worm's belly had mysteriously vanished at that moment.
There was no heat source signal, no bioelectric waves, and the whole place looked like a lifeless ruin.
"You like to hide things, don't you?"
With a thought, Pei Qi took out a dozen [Industrial TNT] from the Industrial Age 2 module from his inventory.
He didn't even bother using a flint and steel; he simply hurled the red explosive blocks at several piles of concrete debris after activating them, just like throwing bricks.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Several violent explosions erupted in the ruins, and these industrial TNTs, which were dozens of times more powerful than ordinary C4, sent tons of debris flying into the air.
However, there was still no movement after the smoke and dust dissipated.
"Still not coming out? You're pretty tough. Well, then I'll give you some extra spice."
Pei Qi's eyes sharpened, and he immediately switched to the heavy weapons menu.
A heavy weapon, two meters long and extremely exaggerated in design, with blinding blue arcs of electricity flashing on its coils, appeared in his hand.
[Item: Electromagnetic Railgun]
[Source Module: Immersive Engineering]
"Buzz—hum!"
After a brief period of energy storage, a solid bauxite projectile was accelerated to several times the speed of sound.
A blinding blue laser instantly tore through the air, piercing through the concrete ruins more than ten meters thick below, leaving a bottomless, straight hole in the ground with melted edges.
Immediately afterwards, Pei Qi cut out a bomb launcher, a special product of the [HBM Nuclear Technology Module].
"Thump—Boom!"
A white, high-pressure aerosol exploded in the air above the ruins and was instantly ignited.
The terrifying high temperature and negative pressure effect instantly drained the oxygen within a radius of several hundred meters, and even the burning ruins were extinguished by this suffocating sensation.
The bombardment by thermobaric weapons lasted for a full three minutes.
Pei Qi used almost every conventional weapon capable of causing widespread terrain damage.
But below, all remained deathly silent.
It was as if the super hunter had actually been completely vaporized along with the giant worm in the nuclear explosion.
This place really is just a lifeless ruin.
"Your acting was really good. If I didn't have this 'cheat code' of a minimap, I would have almost been fooled by you."
Pei Qi stopped unleashing his firepower, showing no frustration at not being able to find his target.
A semi-transparent circular map, presenting a God's-eye view, instantly unfolded in the upper right of his field of vision.
【Travel Map】
[Features: Ignores terrain occlusion, stealth, and any camouflage. Forcefully reads the coordinates of all creatures within the current chunk and displays them as colored dots.]
On that mini-map.
Right in the center, about thirty meters underground, beneath a pile of gray ruins.
A solitary, even faintly flickering, tiny red dot was clearly reflected in Pei Qi's eyes.
The "feigned death" function, "heat shielding," and even "cell hibernation" evolved by the Blacklight virus in order to survive may be an insurmountable stealth technique in the face of human military radar.
But this is equivalent to being completely exposed in front of a minimap that has read the world's underlying code. This super hunter is like a clown standing naked under a searchlight, with nowhere to hide.
Pei Qi looked at the motionless red dot on the minimap, trying to bluff his way through, and couldn't help but reveal an extremely "kind" expression.
A smile.
"You like playing dead, don't you?"
Pei Qi's voice sounded particularly cold in the strong wind, carrying a strange sense of excitement.
"Fine, very well. Since you enjoy lying on the ground like a coward, I'll let you pretend to be something you're not today! I'll make sure you never have to get up again!"
He abruptly put away the electromagnetic railgun in his hand.
Then, accompanied by a heavy mechanical clanking and a dangerous radiation alarm, he forcibly pulled out an extremely large, terrifying heavy weapon painted entirely in military green, with two huge launch rails at the front, from the deepest part of his inventory.
[Item: Fat Man Nuclear Launcher]
[Source Module: HBM's Core Technology]
This ultimate weapon, which had been gathering dust for a long time and was rarely used by Pei Qi because it was too destructive to the terrain, was now quietly resting on his right shoulder.
At the front end of the launcher's track, a miniature tactical nuclear warhead painted with yellow and black radiation markings was prominently displayed.
Pei Qi peered through the launcher's scope, focusing the crosshairs firmly on the ruins directly above the red dot on the minimap.
