Chapter 23 - Absolute Time Dilation; Strange Man

Clenching his teeth, he twisted with all his might!

"Chi chi chi chi.." the miserable yet emotionless sound of the captain could be heard from its neck, followed by a piercing crackling sound!

Michael roared out loud as he twisted forcibly!

"Crack!"

The dim electrical currents within his body flickered.

.It rolled and shook violently for about 5-6 metres, as the glaring red light flickered in its other eye and finally extinguished.

Michael watched emotionless as the captains head spurted blood as it rolled in the ground.

Without hesitation, he placed his hands on the captain's back where the Outlaw Sandevistan was located and muttered.

"Imitate!"

Instantly, the flesh on his palm wriggled against his hands as he felt numerous swarm of nanobot exit his palm, scanning the Sandevistan and then a message rang out in his head.

[Imitation successful]

[Outlaw Sandevistan blueprint acquired.]

[Do you wish to use 1000 essence points to build and install Cyberware?]

[Yes/No?]

Once he saw the message, Michel didn't reply and immediately muttered.

"Devour!"

Instantly, Michael felt his palm wriggle once more and in the blink of an eye, the Sandevistan started turning into dust as his nanobots absorbed the metallic essence within it, placing them inside of him.

Michael gritted his teeth as he gazed around with caution. "Hurry, hurry!"

It would be best he left right now as the other Enforcer's would be here soon but Michael didn't want to suffer for nothing and immediately chose to risk it all to absorb metal essence!

In the blink of an eye, thee entirety of the captains back turned to dust.

Michael didn't wait a second, neither did he absorb the other special metal on the Captain's body and immediately chose to leave without hesitation.

Although currently there were several frantic people running and shouting about, they didn't notice him as he blended in with them.

Michael was currently too occupied to look at this notification because from far away he could hear the piercing sound of the Enforcer's siren – they were here.

That terrifying anti-tech task force wouldn't be that far.

Therefore, he instantly searched for a vehicle to escape. Previously he assaulted several enforcers, forcibly taking over a bike and intruding civilian's houses, his crimes were not few.

It would best not to get caught again. A bike would be the best bet.

He passed two blocks riding on his bike, however a chilling to the bone sensation came over him as his heart was screaming with discomfort.

Suddenly from the front appeared a deep black huge Aerial vehicle, moving across about 100 metres in front of Michael.

The doors were opened and two Anti-tech agents with huge, advanced weapon, coldly aiming at him!

Michael felt a cold sweat enveloping his entire body. Faced with these gun barrels, if they were to commence fire, even at his peak condition he would melt in a matter of seconds. What more his body was covered in injuries!

"BOOM!" The five black barrels sprayed out long and explosive red gun fire, however to the human ear it sounded like one united bang. The anti-tech task force's level of training was unimaginable, as they actually aimed towards Michael who was a 100 metres before them.

Michael's eyes opened wide and he immediately pressed the break. The tire screeching intensely against the asphalt. Sparks of flints lighting up the ground as he forcefully halted.

But it was not barely enough to avoid the bullets. Just as Michael could see death appear before him, time suddenly slowed to a grating halt.

Michael's pale features with gritted teeth paused. One could see the six tracking bullets stop 20 meters away from him as Flint from the weapons of the Anti-tech force combusted in the air. It was as though time had really stop.

Suddenly, a sigh echoed amidst the silence and a man landed from a nearby building, to the fights scene.

The man's cold gaze glanced at the Anti-tech force A in mid-air before staring at Michael with a reluctant expression. Walking towards him.

Inhaling one-fourth of the large ciger in his mouth, he grabbed Michael's neck, holding him like a chicken as he yanked him from the bike. Turning around to leave, his eyes flashed.

"Hm?"

Turning towards the Anti-tech force AV in mid-air. One of thee agents was actually moving, changing the direction of gun and fired.

Seeing this, the man was a bit surprised but then he smiled. "Didn't think there would be someone with such reaction speed in Anti-tech. But by the time your bullet reaches here, I would be miles away from here."

The man duffed more of his ciger and sped up, disappearing in a flash.

Suddenly, time resumed.

"Bang! Bang! Ding!"

The bike was instantly ripped to shreds as the six bullets shattered it into pieces.

"What!?"

"A blur!"

All the Anti-tech task force could see was a blur coming and going. Even the man with the enhanced reaction speed didn't see clearly the face of the man he was about to shoot.

He could only make speculations.

"Those people are here." One of them muttered.

"They shouldn't be in at a place like this, should we inform the top brass?" Another mitered.

"There's nothing we can do if they want to save that brat." The captain of the Anti-tech force holstered his weapon as he massage his brows.

"But he killed an enforcer. It is the greatest crime within our Neon city, a squad captain at that. What would the other enforcers think if we don't pursue this matter." One of the more spoken Anti-tech replied in anger.

The squad Captain's eyes turned cold and he stood up from within his seat. Walking step by step towards the man who just spoke.

"It seems you are not satisfied with my order an feel that it can be fallen to deaf ears. You wanna take the scum kid down? That's the fucking door. I'd like to see you try defeat one of them and come back alive."

"Rose, contact the net runners we have within Neon city and have them out a bounty on a Michael Syntex. Squad move back to HQ."

"Yes sir!"
