"Sir, after the scan, you are surrounded by several handguns."
The voice seemed to explode in Zheng Xiaotian's mind. This was the function of the armor butler. If it were just a couple of cultivators, it wouldn't be so impressive. However, if it were handguns, assault rifles, and grenades, the butler would detect them like a Tibetan mastiff as soon as they entered a certain range.
"Are you really sure?" Zheng Xiaotian asked.
"Based on my scan and analysis, they are clearly targeting you," the butler said.
Zheng Xiaotian thought to himself, well, if the butler is so certain, there must be no mistake. They are indeed after him.
Zheng Xiaotian stood up.
"What are you doing?" Lin Ziyuan looked at Zheng Xiaotian.
"Going to the bathroom!" Zheng Xiaotian said.
"Go ahead!" Lin Ziyuan waved her hand. However, as Zheng Xiaotian walked away, her eyes were fixed on him. Her ex-boyfriend used to say he was going to the bathroom, but he never came back.
Sure enough! Lin Ziyuan noticed that Zheng Xiaotian was heading straight for the door. She immediately pressed her face against the transparent glass and stared at him intently. She was puzzled. If it wasn't him, why would he run in this direction? The bathroom was definitely not this way. If it was him, the reason for running must be that he thought she had discovered him.
Isn't he going to run again? Lin Ziyuan stood up immediately. Then, she froze in place. Outside, a group of people who clearly looked like a gang were walking toward Zheng Xiaotian.
Zheng Xiaotian had just stepped out of the restaurant when a limousine opened. Two men led the way, followed by about ten henchmen, who rushed toward him.
Zheng Xiaotian felt that both men looked familiar. It seemed he had seen them somewhere before. Well, these two weren't his main concern; what he cared about was the group of people around them. First, from the butler's warning, he knew there were at least five guns among them. Then, based on his own perception, he felt pressure from one of the men.
"Kid, do you still recognize me?" Xiao Shaoye stopped three meters from Zheng Xiaotian.
"Who are you?" Zheng Xiaotian glanced at him.
Xiao Shaoye was furious. He didn't know if the other party was serious or not, but how could he not recognize him? Was he pulling his leg?
"Kid, do you still recognize me?" Xiao Taobao pointed at Zheng Xiaotian.
"Who are you!" Zheng Xiaotian glanced at Xiao Taobao.
"Ha, you had a grudge with me this morning, and now you don't recognize me?" Xiao Taobao thought Zheng Xiaotian was just pretending, absolutely pretending. He must have seen that there were too many people and that their fighting power was too strong, so he was afraid and trying to pretend he didn't recognize him to get away with it.
"Are you the moron from this morning?" Zheng Xiaotian pointed at Xiao Shaoye with his right hand. "Is this moron the help you invited?"
Xiao Shaoye now believed what Xiao Taobao had said. Clearly, Zheng Xiaotian was not taking him seriously. However, the more he did this, the more he wanted to show the other party his strength. He wanted to show that he was no longer the simple person he used to be. He had brought help.
"Let's go to a small alley nearby," Xiao Shaoye said.
"Sure, sure, why would I be afraid of you?" Zheng Xiaotian laughed. He thought to himself, if he activated the armor in front of so many people, it would end up on the news, and the government would come to him to study the armor. He would be treated like a lab rat. So, finding a quiet place was better.
Xiao Shaoye thought, does he think he can take on a dozen people alone? Indeed, he had successfully lured him into the alley. Once inside, he would tell the other party that the dozen people with him would take his life.
In the alley, a group of about ten people arrived.
"If you have any last words, kneel down and beg me, and I'll give you a chance to say them," Xiao Shaoye said magnanimously.
"I just want to say, 'haha,'" Zheng Xiaotian casually glanced at the few men behind Xiao Shaoye. "You think a few handguns will scare me?"
"Huh?" Xiao Shaoye's eyes narrowed. The other party had directly mentioned the guns, which was a bit unexpected. But if he knew they were armed, why was he so arrogant? Was he really not afraid at all?
"Don't hem and haw, it's not like we're having sex. Since you brought the guns, not giving you a chance to draw them would disappoint you, right? Come on, show off your handguns and be bold," Zheng Xiaotian said.
Xiao Shaoye raised his right hand and pointed his index finger at the sky.
Several men pulled out their handguns, chambered a round, and aimed at Zheng Xiaotian.
"You really think I'm going to let you draw them?" Zheng Xiaotian widened his eyes.
"Go!" Xiao Shaoye wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. From the other party's words, he had thought the other party was not afraid at all. But now, it was clear that he was afraid, and very afraid.
"Kid, if you're a bit more sincere, I might not kill you," Xiao Shaoye said.
"Then you might as well kill me," Zheng Xiaotian said calmly.
"What did you say?" Xiao Shaoye's jaw almost dropped in shock.
"I said, you might as well kill me," Zheng Xiaotian repeated.
"Argh, argh, do you really think I won't kill you?" Xiao Shaoye was almost losing it.
"If you dare to kill me, then do it. Don't let me look down on you," Zheng Xiaotian sneered.
"Fire, fire, fire!" Xiao Shaoye shouted in a rage.
Bang, bang, bang!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Bullets shot toward Zheng Xiaotian.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The bullets hit Zheng Xiaotian's body and were deflected. In the instant the bullets struck, his body was covered in thick armor.
"Sir, such a minor impact is easily handled by the armor's defensive capabilities," the butler said.
"Good job!" Zheng Xiaotian nodded.
Zheng Xiaotian thought to himself, I am truly bulletproof. I completely disdain bullets.
Xiao Shaoye was stunned. He looked at the Iron Man-like figure in front of him, rubbed his eyes, and told himself, this must be a dream, definitely a dream.
