I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

"You can just remember my name unilaterally. What's the value of remembering the name of one of the seven billion people among you?"

"etc!"

A dozen raised guns were pointed at Julius, and Daniel warned him with an unkind expression: "Put down Naktowa's smile. That is something managed by the United States."

The red laser aiming point flickered on Julius's face and body, but he didn't seem to pay attention to it at all.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming dissatisfied.

"Danger, the police department is calling...!" Stephen quickly signaled from the side.

"Don't look anxious, Stephen." Daniel's forehead was already soaked in cold sweat. He suppressed his trembling hands and lit up a cigarette and puffed on it.

"Anyway, we can't just sit back and watch, so we might as well confront him openly. If that guy is even remotely human -"

"You definitely don't want to be beaten into pieces by bullets."

Daniel gritted his teeth and glared at Julius.

"Seize the flaw and take that thing back no matter what! How can you hand over a tool to help the world collapse to a guy who is obviously abnormal!"

"..." Julius tilted his head, as if thinking about something, and then slowly said:

"The United States... The United States... is such an unpleasant name. I remembered it."

He raised the half-skeleton mask in his hand, "Listen, this is mine."

"Just like my treasures that were plundered by you."

"You trespassed into other people's territory, acted recklessly and then walked away. Who allowed you to do this?"

"You have realized it, too. Although you claim to be the world's police, what you do is just an act of violence that imposes your own worldview on others."

"Just because you have the strongest national power on earth..."

Julias held his forehead and sighed: "I once succumbed to that kind of violence. I witnessed the most important people around me being massacred by you on false charges... But."

"-It's different now."

Julius grinned suddenly, revealing a cruel smile.

"Even if the opponent is a country, in terms of violence... I will not lose!"

The mechanical gears were intertwined and spread out like wings behind Julius, covering the sky. The clicking sounds of clocks joined together and came like a wave.

Seeing this, Daniel suddenly waved his hand and issued an order:

"shot!"

This situation, which is already at a critical moment, is on the verge of breaking out!

Chapter 17 Pursuit

Just when the team members heard the order and wanted to pull the trigger, the ground beneath Julius' feet exploded, and a huge plume of smoke turned into a huge black curtain that instantly enveloped the surrounding area.

"Damn it! Don't shoot! It will cause accidental injury!"

The shock wave and smoke scattered the escort members, and they were unable to see their fingers around. It was impossible to fire under the foggy conditions.

"Target disappears!"

As soon as the members' report came, a mechanical arm composed of gears broke through the thick fog and slammed towards Daniel.

However, Danielle, who has been able to hold the HLPD police position in this city for more than a year without sacrificing his life, must have some extraordinary abilities.

Already tensed, he grabbed his adjutant the moment he saw the thick fog rolling in, and the two of them jumped away from the car.

The arm composed of gears severely smashed the expensive special armored car, and in the shocked eyes of the two people, the armored car that was smashed upright seemed to be stuffed into a time machine and rapidly decayed and aged. It turned into a brown iron slag and was completely scrapped before your eyes.

"Varied...."

brush--

Before Daniel could be surprised by the sight before him, the next attack had already appeared in front of him.

Danielle, who fell to the ground, could not escape at all and could only put his arms in front of his body in vain.

clang! !

"Police department, please lead the team to retreat immediately!" Klaus's tall back appeared in front of Daniel, and his scarlet ferocious cross shield blocked the fatal attack just now.

"Klaus! Be careful, that guy is-"

With a click, dark red cracks appeared on Klaus's condensed blood cross shield. In the next moment, Julius' figure broke through the thick fog and appeared in front of Klaus.

"Huh...interesting."

Klaus's beast-like green eyes suddenly burst out with frightening light, his left fist was clenched, and the joints throughout his body made explosive sounds.

Breglid's Bloody Fighting Technique...!

The arms of the two fighting figures drew afterimages. The mechanical arms composed of gears and the shining blood-red cross shield collided violently in mid-air, making a series of loud noises like a frenzy.

After a final full-force collision, the figures of Julius and Klaus finally separated.

And the dust mist that was raised around them was torn apart by the air waves because of the fight just now.

Julius stared at the red-haired man in front of him, bared his teeth and sneered: "Have you also tampered with time?"

The 117 movements of Breglid's bleeding fighting technique will never break the blood cross shield.

Even if time is accelerated for thousands of years, it has not been corrupted. The compound skill formed with fighting skills is quite tricky.

Breaking through the thick fog, additional troops will arrive soon. After a moment's consideration, Julius could only take a step back.

"I should have dealt with you immediately here. But unfortunately, I am holding an important treasure now..."

Tiny half-teeth protruded silently from the heel of Julius's heel and inserted into the ground. As the whine of a subway car came from the sewer entrance nearby, the ground beneath its feet quickly collapsed, forming a long and narrow vertical tunnel.

Wow——

Julius' figure quickly disappeared

In front of me, I drilled through the thick layer of road and soil and fell into the running subway car.

Boom!

The ceiling of the subway car suddenly melted into a round hole, and a figure fell from the top, falling hard on its butt.

Suddenly the eyes of the passengers in the car turned to Julias who "descended from the ground".

He blinked, quickly got up from the ground, patted his butt, and waved to the passengers around him with a smile: "Um...ah~ I'm sorry to disturb you, haha, please don't pay attention to me."

An old lady even planned to stand up and give up her seat for him. Julius quickly pushed her back into her seat and said with a smile: "It's okay... Even though I'm older, my body is still strong. Please sit down!"

The brief commotion subsided quickly. Anything could happen in this city, and there was no need to make too much of a fuss.

So soon the surrounding passengers no longer paid attention to Julius. He naturally held the World Collapse Helper in his hand and stood in the carriage holding the railing, waiting for the vehicle to reach the next stop.

Perfectly integrated into the crowd.

On the way, Julius stared at his hands in a daze for a while.

It's not graceful to fall on your butt... I must strengthen my physical exercise after I go back.

...

"Klaus!"

When Stephen and others rushed to the direction where the sound came from, they found Klaus lying on the ground, looking into a small hole.

"Escaped?"

"Well, from this hole, the line directly below goes to the uptown area." Klaus answered while scratching his head.

The hole was too small, and Klaus couldn't get through it with his size, so he couldn't pursue it.

"Boss, you don't have to look, I'm sure you can't get in, I'll do it!"

Zabu immediately prepared to jump towards the unknown hole drilled by the enemy without hesitation.

"Zabu, be careful..." Klaus warned, "The enemy is very strong."

"Is everyone okay?"

Zabu's eyes lit up, he looked at Jet who had just arrived, and immediately shouted to him: "Oh! Stinky fish, you came just in time, come down with me and help me block the knife."

Just as brothers Jet and Zabu were noisily squeezing into the cave, Cheng Rang's phone rang.

"hello?"

"Have you had enough of the show? Get ready to work!" Stephen's voice came from the other side of the receiver.

"Mr. Stephen...when did you know I was back?"

"There are limits to joking. You are also an executive member of the mission today."

Feeling that Stephen's tone was unkind and he seemed to be getting angry, Cheng Rang quickly cleared his throat and said seriously: "Ahem, what are your orders, Fantou."

"The goods have been robbed. If you don't want your mission execution record to have the word "failure" on it, then do something serious for me."

"Huh? You guys can't beat a guy as weak as Veneno?" Cheng Rang's eyes widened, as if he was surprised by this.

Pululu (the sound of sucking milk tea)

Stephen's forehead had blue veins visible to the naked eye, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If only it were that simple -"

Listening to Stephen's quick explanation on the phone, the smile on Cheng Rang's face gradually disappeared.

"The second Honkai instrument is humanoid, is there any mistake?"

"The Compressor Clock, according to his name, is Julius."

It can control the passage of time in an area at will. It is said that it can even reverse the time of the world with its full strength. It is the most dangerous and difficult time-manipulating enemy.

"No wonder you can't figure it out..."

Cheng Rang threw down the half-drunk pearl milk tea, grabbed the last two fried chicken nuggets in the box and stuffed them into his mouth, stood up and walked out of the fast food restaurant.

"Do you still have the communicator?"

"exist."

Taking out the communicator that had not been used for a long time from the system backpack, Cheng Rang hung it on his ear and pressed the switch.

The phone was hung up at the right time, and then Stephen's voice came from the headset.

"Encrypted channel check."

"Hi~ This is the talented and beautiful girl Elaine. Long time no see, Boss Cheng!"

"Long time no see Elaine! If you want money, I don't have it——"

"Don't join in casually, Elaine, get out of here!"

After kicking away the intruder, Stephen's orders were issued to everyone.

"Attention everyone, please take the on and off-line trains from Old Franklin Street Station, Garnarner Station, as well as trains from West Brodeau Station and City Hall Phantom Station ahead."

"Enter the station control station from all the exits of the above-mentioned subway stations. The target image data has been sent to the mobile terminal. Please note that the risk is extremely high. Everyone except Cheng Rang should avoid direct confrontation!"

"Huh?! This isn't fair, Fantou! I also want to-"

"Cut him down!"

"Yes!" Stephen's roar frightened Cheng Rang, and he subconsciously agreed.

After everyone started taking action, Cheng Rang scratched his head in confusion and walked towards the station.

"It's weird, why is Fantou so irritable today? It's like he's taken some gunpowder..."

Here, it wasn't until he put down the communicator that Stephen came to Klaus and helped him up from the ground, his face full of worry.

"Klaus...are you okay!"

"Ahem...it's okay for now." Klaus said

The originally tall and straight body was a little stooped, the bright red hair had lost its luster as if it were withered, and the beard on his cheeks was even dyed gray.

The whole person seemed to have aged at least thirty years in an instant.

"The enemy's ability... is very dangerous. Even my body cannot support the battle. In addition, the target may choose to walk out of the station on a side road. The police department added——"
