Chapter 71

Amidst the gloomy sky over the dark city, a hexagonal flying saucer slowly descended. The back of this hexagonal saucer resembled a six-pointed star, and it was named the "Hexagram."

Not large in size but extremely fast, it was originally a military spacecraft. However, the federal military approved the retired Hexagram to be rented out for civilian use at a high annual rent, with the condition that it must undergo regular dual inspections by the military and the police. Being able to afford the Hexagram was a symbol of status and privilege.

The Hexagram slowly landed on the rooftop mini-airport of the dark city. The three remaining members of the Four Great Protectors of the dark city, excluding the deceased Water Brother, were already waiting here respectfully.

Among the three, one was checking on Curly Head in the medical room. The other two were a muscular man who looked like a bull, with his temples cleanly shaved and only his forehead hair dyed golden, tied into a high ponytail at the back. His nickname was "Golden Bull," the leader of the Four Great Protectors.

The other was a small, dark-skinned man with a rat-like appearance, standing there so inconspicuously that he could easily be overlooked. But he was also one of the Four Great Protectors, nicknamed "Rat."

Among the Four Great Protectors, Golden Bull was the leader, followed by Rat, then Water Brother, and finally Big Head.

Before the Hexagram had fully landed, Big Head whispered to Golden Bull, "To actually send the Hexagram, who could it be?"

Golden Bull's face was grim. As the leader, he would bear the greatest responsibility for this, and he had no mood to answer Big Head.

Instead, Rat replied, "At the very least, it must be a Special Agent."

Special Agent... Big Head's face changed. The title of Special Agent in Black Star not only represented a position but also strength!

To be a Special Agent, one must be at least a Level 20 life form!

To them, a Level 20 life form was akin to a god!

The light from the Hexagram's thrusters gradually dimmed, and landing struts extended to stabilize it on the rooftop. The butterfly doors on both sides opened, and a mechanical ladder extended. A slender figure slowly walked out.

The first thing that caught the eye was a pair of black knee-high military boots. The pointed toes and heels were made of special matte metal, making no sound as they tapped the floor, like the soft pads of a cat's paws.

Big Head's eyes widened. The Special Agent was a woman!

She wore a fitted black leather jacket and pants, the leather having excellent elasticity and breathability, perfectly hugging her curvaceous figure. Her long, slender legs made the three Great Protectors' Adam's apples involuntarily move.

She was actually well-covered, with only her face exposed, but the perfect curves seemed to exude a fatal allure. The three Great Protectors couldn't help but shift their gaze to her face, as appreciating her figure without seeing her face would be incomplete.

Her long, straight black hair was tied into a neat high ponytail at the back. Her small, pale face had a sharp chin, and she had a delicate appearance, but her expression was cold and distant, especially her sharp, blade-like eyes, which instantly dispelled any lewd thoughts from the three Great Protectors.

She wore thin black leather gloves that fit like a second skin, not hindering her movements. On her middle finger, she wore an ancient bronze ring, symbolizing her identity and authority.

"Special Agent, you have traveled far, thank you for your hard work..." Seeing the bronze ring, the three Great Protectors confirmed that this cold beauty was indeed a Special Agent. They smiled and bowed to greet her.

As the leader of the Four Great Protectors, Golden Bull bowed deeply and said, "I am Golden Bull, the first supervisor of the Black City Boxing Arena. May I ask your name, Special Agent?"

The cold beauty's icy gaze swept over him, and she opened her cherry lips, "Zhuo Yue."

"Such a beautiful name!" The three, with servile expressions, flattered her, "Just like your name, just like your name..."

A look of disgust flashed across Zhuo Yue's beautiful face, and she coldly asked, "Why is the mech of the Black City Boxing Arena not hidden in the basement but brought to the rooftop?"

"What?" The three were stunned, "Mech?"

To deal with potential serious incidents and to intimidate in the dark territory of Meteor Street, each Black Star base in the dark city would have a mech.

Of course, this mech was only a stabilizing force and would not be easily mobilized, as mechs were nominally controlled by the federal military.

Even though Black Star was the largest dark force in the federation, it did not have the strength to challenge the federal military, and such a challenge would be meaningless.

"Click, click, click..."

A series of light sounds came from the side of the rooftop. That direction faced an unfinished garden, which, due to being a failed project, had become a large garbage dump, dirty, smelly, and chaotic, with few people around.

Golden Bull, Rat, and Big Head stared in shock at that direction. Suddenly, two mechanical claws appeared on the rooftop, sharp like swords, easily piercing through the concrete.

Then, a large mechanical spider climbed up, revealing its fearsome appearance on the rooftop.

Its upper body was that of a mechanical woman, while its lower body was a spider. Made of steel, it was about three meters tall, with a slender but imposing presence.

From its appearance, it instantly reminded one of the Greek mythological monster Arachne!

Arachne was skilled in weaving and once challenged Athena in a weaving contest, leading to her suicide after losing. Athena transformed her soul into a spider, with a woman's upper body and a spider's lower body, living in a large spider web, weaving continuously.

This half-human, half-spider mech was the Arachne model of the C-class mechs. The Arachne mech, like a spider, had eight mechanical legs, and the pilots who could control it were all experienced. However, the pilot of this Arachne mech was clearly inexperienced, as its movements were not smooth and even somewhat clumsy.

"No! Ours is a D-class mech! This is not our mech!" Rat suddenly screamed, and Golden Bull and Big Head's faces instantly changed.

"It's the Green Snake Gang's mech!" Golden Bull suddenly realized, "The Green Snake Gang is the largest local force in Meteor Street besides us. Six months ago, we heard they got a C-class mech, but our investigation yielded no results, and they never exposed it, so we thought it was a rumor. We didn't expect it to be true..."

"They must have learned about Water Brother's death and that we three are all gathered on the rooftop, so they want to eliminate us all at once!" Big Head's guess was basically the truth. He was both shocked, angry, and afraid. The combat power of a C-class mech was undeniable, and their flesh and blood bodies were no match for the Arachne mech.

Moreover, the Black City base in Mountain City had just lost Water Brother, and now this incident of an enemy force's mech attack in front of the dispatched Special Agent made life unbearable...

"Damn it!" As the leader of the Four Great Protectors, Golden Bull, knowing he was no match, still stepped forward and shouted at the Arachne mech, "You Green Snake Gang have lost your minds! We, Black Star..."

"Whoosh—"

Before he could finish, the Arachne mech's eight mechanical legs pressed hard on the ground, causing eight corresponding cracks on the rooftop. The Arachne mech shot towards Golden Bull like a meteor, its eight spear-like mechanical legs spread wide, resembling a monster from a movie.

"I... fuck..." Golden Bull's face turned pale. He never expected the Arachne mech to be so terrifying. Its speed far exceeded his reaction time, leaving him no time to defend or dodge. The only thing he could do was imagine a scene in his mind—

The Arachne mech's scythe-like mechanical legs tore his muscular body into pieces in an instant...

Seeing Golden Bull standing there, completely terrified and waiting to be slaughtered, the cold beauty, Special Agent Zhuo Yue, coldly huffed and suddenly moved like a flash of light, instantly appearing in front of the Arachne mech.

"What?" The pilot of the Arachne mech suddenly felt a black light flash on the screen, thinking it was a hallucination. He blinked hard and refocused, only to see a stunning beauty on the screen, breathtakingly beautiful.

Before he could react, the pilot suddenly felt the mech shake violently, and he instantly lost consciousness.

In the eyes of Golden Bull, Rat, and Big Head, they only saw a gust of wind, and Zhuo Yue seemed to have teleported in front of Golden Bull.

"Boom—"

Zhuo Yue kicked the Arachne mech's spider abdomen hard. The kick caused her to pause momentarily, allowing Golden Bull, Rat, and Big Head to see her agile and heroic figure.

The mighty Arachne mech, like a lump of clay, was kicked deeply into a dent and flew back several meters, landing heavily on the rooftop, causing the entire rooftop to tremble violently.

The Arachne mech seemed to turn into a pile of scrap metal, with sparks flying from its mechanical abdomen, lying motionless.

The deep dent in its mechanical abdomen, where the cockpit was, suggested that the person inside was likely crushed into a pulp...

Level 20 life form...

So strong...

Golden Bull, Rat, and Big Head all broke out in cold sweat, feeling the cold wind on the rooftop penetrate their bodies.
