Chapter 111 Cyber World 13
Just as the ponytail man and Fiona were locked in a stalemate, the man next to Fiona suddenly pulled out an energy cannon and fired a shot at the ponytail man.
The man with the ponytail quickly dodged to the side, leaving a deep burn mark on the spot.
Fiona quickly got up, picked up the weapon she had hidden under her pillow, pointed it at the ponytail-wearing man, and looked at her lover with gratitude in her eyes.
"Yi, thank you."
The man called Yi revealed a smug smile: "Of course I'll protect my woman."
Fiona gave him a coquettish look.
A soft "pop!" sound.
A small hole appeared on Yi's head, and blood gradually began to flow out. Then, he collapsed to the ground with his eyes wide open.
"That's disgusting."
A bald man suddenly appeared, holding a gun, and curled his lip in disgust.
Then she complained to the man with the ponytail, "Hurry up."
Fiona was utterly incredulous when she saw her boyfriend killed. Her body trembled uncontrollably, and she instinctively pulled the trigger of her weapon.
As a result, the ponytail-wearing man swiftly struck her arm with his cane, producing a muffled metallic clang. Fiona still managed to activate the energy gun in her hand.
It was interrupted, and the angle was a bit off, so it hit the bald man's calf.
The bald man looked down at his trouser leg, which was burned to a crisp, revealing a metallic prosthetic limb that gleamed with a blue light.
Seeing that his prosthetic limb was intact, the bald man was overjoyed: "This new material is really good. It can't even be burned by an energy gun. When I get back, I'll ask the professor to give me a new head made of this material."
The man with the ponytail next to her had already restrained Fiona, binding her tightly with an electromagnetic lock.
Fiona struggled in vain and her mind cleared considerably; she realized that these two were not people she could defeat.
Having been around for so long, I'm used to being flexible and adaptable. If I lose a boyfriend, I can find another one. Right now, I'd better beg for mercy and save my life.
“Gentlemen, I just remembered who I transferred money to yesterday. I’ll take you there right now.” Fiona’s voice trembled.
The man with the ponytail and the bald man weren't afraid of her lying at all, and let her lead the way.
Of course, Fiona didn't have the guts to lie to them.
Soon, the three people appeared outside the restaurant.
The bald man stood at the doorway, suddenly sniffed the air, and exclaimed in surprise, "This smells like high-class food! Isn't this a shantytown? When did people in shantytowns start eating high-class food?"
Fiona quickly explained, "This is a restaurant. It suddenly appeared here a few days ago and sells beef pies."
"Selling high-end food in a shantytown?" The man with the ponytail looked puzzled; he had never heard of such a thing before.
Thinking of her brother who was still being held captive by Lin Xiaoqian, Fiona added fuel to the fire, saying, "The owner inside seems to be someone special. The shop is full of traps. To be honest, the reason I transferred money to someone yesterday was because the owner of this shop was extorting me. My own brother is still being held hostage inside and can't get out."
The man with the ponytail said slowly, "Unusual status? How unusual could it be?"
Looking at the two tightly closed doors, the bald man casually raised the energy cannon in his hand and fired a shot at the door.
"Peng!"
As the energy cannon exploded on the gate, billowing black smoke billowing amidst the flames, the bald man's lips curled into a contemptuous smile.
As the smoke cleared, the two doors did not shatter as the bald man had imagined; instead, they stood intact in their original positions.
"Holy crap!" The ponytail man and the bald man stared wide-eyed in shock at the two undamaged doors, their vigilance instantly rising to its peak.
The man with the ponytail frowned and said in a low voice, "This restaurant seems a bit strange."
The bald man didn't say a word, his eyes fixed on the two doors.
Fiona was also quite frightened by this scene. She originally thought that with the help of these two people, she could easily deal with the restaurant owner and rescue her brother, Zain.
But now it seems she underestimated the restaurant.
The loud noise woke up the people living nearby, and they all ran out. Although they didn't recognize the bald man and the man with the ponytail, they recognized Fiona and the others.
Seeing the three of them standing at the restaurant entrance, he figured that Fiona had called for reinforcements to rescue Zayn.
No one wanted to get involved, so they scrambled away from the troublesome place, but the restaurant remained quiet; despite the commotion, not a single person came out.
The man with the ponytail swiped out a light screen and tapped it a few times.
"move back."
Upon hearing this, the bald man turned and ran away without looking back, while the man with the ponytail followed behind, carrying Fiona.
A bomb flew from the hovercar that was originally suspended in mid-air, heading straight for the small restaurant. The nearby residents immediately showed fear upon seeing this and quickly ran further away.
"boom!"
The bomb landed on the restaurant with a huge roar, and the area within dozens of meters of the restaurant was blown to pieces.
Seeing such a violent scene, the bald man became somewhat excited.
"Aren't you afraid of blowing someone up right now?"
The man with the ponytail looked calmly at the bombing site: "I suddenly feel that with the material of the chip, it shouldn't be damaged by the explosion. If someone dies, we can just pick up the chip and have the professor make a new body for her."
If we can't get into the restaurant and catch the culprit, then we won't be able to explain it to the professor.
The two waited casually for the fire and smoke to dissipate so they could retrieve the body, while Fio stood to the side as if he had lost his soul.
Her brother, Zain, was still in the restaurant when the bomb just landed there so easily? Would he even survive?
Fiona's eyes widened, she collapsed to the ground, her face filled with disbelief, and a sense of regret welled up inside her.
Some residents didn't have time to run far and were hit by the bomb blast. Painful groans and cries for help echoed around the ruins. The chaotic scene was filled with an atmosphere of fear and despair.
The man with the ponytail and the bald man remained unmoved, and even had the leisure to smoke.
After a while, the smoke gradually dissipated, and the bald man threw away his cigarette butt: "Let's go, let's finish the mission and go back quickly."
The two walked towards the small restaurant, ignoring Fiona who was sprawled on the ground.
As they got closer to the restaurant, the two felt increasingly uneasy.
According to their plan, the location of the restaurant should have been blasted into a large crater. There are some craters now, but they don't seem to be as deep or large as they imagined.
The two exchanged a glance, a strange feeling rising within them.
Soon, through the smoke, they saw a perfectly intact house appear before them.
The bald man and the man with the ponytail stared in disbelief, their mouths agape.
Despite the powerful explosion, the house remained completely undamaged, as if protected by a mysterious force.
The bald man rubbed his eyes and muttered to himself, "How is this possible? What's going on?"
