Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Control the Enemy with One Finger

Translator: 549690339

Everyone knew that Mr. Lin Xiangdong was very strong, but without using his Base Mutation power and without the defensive abilities of an Alloy Body, how could a mere flesh and blood body withstand an attack of Alloy Level strength?

Was he planning to overcome the Supersonic Gunman with speed? That seemed even more impossible, as the Supersonic Gunman was a top-tier speed-type Alloy Creature, with an attack speed that was unrivaled at the Alloy Level.

Facing the Supersonic Gunman and claiming he did not need to use Base Mutation power, they could not think of any other word to describe Mr. Lin Xiangdong apart from arrogant.

Only Ye knew that Lin Shen did not refuse to use his Base Mutation power, he simply did not have the ability to do so.

Ye had already prepared to forcibly intervene when he suddenly caught Lin Shen’s eyes. The determination in them made Ye momentarily stunned.

“Since Mr. Lin is so confident, Mr. Qi, why don’t you indulge him? Let’s not delay Mr. Lin’s performance,” Wang Tian’er said with a glint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Lin Xiangdong was strong, but his recklessness in not using his Base Mutation power meant his flesh and blood body still had the chance to be killed, and this might be a perfect opportunity.

Qi Shuheng clearly understood what Wang Tian’er meant and said with a smile, “Since Mr. Lin insists, I can only obey.”

At Qi Shuheng’s command, the cold mechanical palm of the Supersonic Gunman moved like lightning, and in an instant, he drew his pistol from his waist.

Fast… It was so incredibly fast…

The spectators only saw a blur before the Supersonic Gunman had already drawn his pistol; they did not catch how it was drawn at all.

“So fast!” While they were still marveling at the speed of the Supersonic Gunman, they witnessed an even more astonishing scene.

The Supersonic Gunman’s speed had already shocked them, but in that brief moment of drawing his weapon, Mr. Lin Xiangdong, who stood across from the Supersonic Gunman a meter away and wore an Evil Ghost mask, truly appeared like an invisible, haunting specter, instantly flashing in front of the Supersonic Gunman.

The Supersonic Gunman had just raised his pistol when Mr. Lin Xiangdong’s finger pointed just below the chest armor of the Supersonic Gunman, one inch away.

“How is that possible!” Qi Shuheng, Wang Tian’er, and even Ye, all felt incredulous, their eyes widening to the limit.

This speed had surpassed the speed limit of the Alloy Level. How on earth was it achieved?

Ye found it incomprehensible as well; how could Lin Shen, without Base Mutation, possess such speed?

“Could it be… Could it be that Lin Shen actually completed his Base Mutation long ago… and even advanced to the Alloy Level… He is a hidden trump card of the Lin Family…” The more Ye thought about it, the more he felt that this was the only possibility; otherwise, it was very hard to explain how Lin Shen could have such speed, a speed that a person without Base Mutation should not have.

The scene seemed to freeze there, with Lin Shen’s finger pointing at the abdomen of the Supersonic Gunman, whose arm hung at an awkward angle. His pistol pointed at Lin Shen as if just pulling the trigger could pierce through Lin Shen’s body, yet nothing happened.

Qi Shuheng, seeing that the Supersonic Gunman was not knocked back, thought it was because Lin Xiangdong had not used any Base Mutation power and had only used a finger, so the strength was not enough to severely damage the Supersonic Gunman; he felt a surge of joy.

Their agreement was to subdue the Supersonic Gunman with a single strike, and since the Supersonic Gunman was not pushed back, even though the speed was indeed shocking, it meant that he had won this bet.

“Mr. Lin, not a good… intention…” Qi Shuheng began to speak with a smile, but his expression changed repeatedly and became very ugly; he was unable to finish his sentence.

Lin Shen slowly retracted his finger, not even glancing at the Supersonic Gunman. He turned around, hands behind his back, walking away. The Supersonic Gunman remained frozen in place, unresponsive to any of Qi Shuheng’s commands.

“Numb… numb… Oh, Mr. Tian… This is just too cool…”

“I heard long ago that Mr. Lin Xiangdong was unbeatable among his peers, and indeed the rumors were no exaggeration.”

“This isn’t just unbeatable, it’s a total crush, isn’t it? Without mutating, he’s faster than the top speed-type Base Variant Creatures. Could he have already reached the legendary Crystal Base Level?”

“Such a strong person, shame about the looks.”

“How do you know Mr. Lin Xiangdong doesn’t look good?”

“If he was handsome, why would he wear a mask? Obviously, there’s something wrong with his looks.”

“You know nothing. I’ve seen Mr. Lin Xiangdong with my own eyes, and he is truly handsome.”

“Then why does he wear a mask?”

“Women, long on hair, short on insight. He wears a mask because he’s too handsome; that’s why he has no choice but to wear one.”

“Now I’m even more confused.”

“Haven’t you heard about the ancient general who was too handsome, unable to intimidate his enemies on the battlefield, so he had to wear a mask like an evil ghost whenever he went to war? Mr. Lin Xiangdong is the same.”

“So that’s it… I really want to see what Mr. Lin Xiangdong looks like…”

No matter what the others said, Lin Shen did not utter a word, afraid that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would groan in pain, possibly revealing an expression of agony.

The body of an alloy creature was just too hard; even though the acupoint sealing was done at a relative weak spot, it felt no different from jabbing a finger into steel at full force. Lin Shen wondered if his finger was broken and could only pretend nothing was amiss.

While everyone was discussing, Lin Shen had already walked back to the stands and came before Qi Shuheng, extending his hand towards him.

“Are you going to do it yourself, or should I help you?” Qi Shuheng wanted to say something but was abruptly interrupted by Lin Shen.

“I, Qi Shuheng, am a man of my word. This belongs to you now, Mr. Lin.” Qi Shuheng hesitated for a moment, remembering Mr. Lin Xiangdong’s terrifying speed and the still immobile Supersonic Gunman, he ultimately decided not to say anything more, pulling a blue metal key from his pocket and handing it over to Lin Shen.

Every base variant creature has its corresponding base mutation key. The person in possession of the base mutation key becomes the master of the base variant creature, gaining its absolute loyalty. A base variant creature can only be called a base mutation pet once it offers up its base mutation key.

It’s almost impossible for an adult base variant creature to offer its base mutation key to a human, which is why most base mutation pets are raised from the Base Mutation Egg stage.

Once a base variant creature has offered up its base mutation key, its mastership is no longer up to the creature itself to decide.

Lin Shen took the key without further acknowledgment of Qi Shuheng and walked straight to the Supersonic Gunman, who had been subjected to acupoint sealing. He inserted the key into the key slot on the gunman’s waist.

The next second, the Supersonic Gunman’s body underwent a transformation, the metal on its surface began to flow and shrink continuously, and a moment later, it contracted into a chicken egg-sized blue metal capsule, with the key still inserted at one end.

Lin Shen pocketed the pet capsule and the key, then returned to sit in his place in the stands, twiddling with the pet capsule that displayed the information of the Supersonic Gunman. Only someone with the corresponding base mutation key could access this information.
