Ren Zhong smiled, "It’s okay, just practice makes perfect."
In the previous tiline, the exoskeleton he finally created was worth 200 million, this ti it increased by 50 million, primarily because he replaced the Ice Fla Giant Blade with another type of weapon—the Corrosive Blade.
The Corrosive Blade’s explosive lethality is sowhat reduced, but it poses an additional threat to the Armored Soldier.
He also slightly fine-tuned so components again based on his final battle with the Cold-blooded Butcher, striving to push the performance to the extre.
Ju Qingng wiped the sweat off her forehead and said again, "I have a few forr classmates still studying at Liao Yuan Science College, and I heard you’ve beco quite the figure at the school? Scoring nearly perfectly in the Fourth Level Mining Engineer examination after just nine days of learning? Everyone calls you the Yangsheng Scholar?"
Ren Zhong cleared his throat twice, his face slightly flushed.
He’s living such a serious life, yet sohow got such a playful and distorted nickna.
"It’s all nonsense, those people just haven’t seen the world."
Ju Qingng suddenly stopped talking, just staring intently at Ren Zhong.
After a long ti, she suddenly sighed, "You’re always soone who creates miracles and then talks about them as if they were nothing."
Ren Zhong: "Huh?"
"Nothing. What are you planning for tomorrow? I checked a lot of information about the Cold-blooded Butcher, and although I have confidence in this exoskeleton, I’m afraid you still can’t deal with him. I’ve heard that the Cold-blooded Butcher also has similar exoskeleton armor. Although he can’t get as much power assistance as you, his own movent ability is already terrifying."
Ren Zhong humd, "I know all of it."
"You will lose."
Ren Zhong humd again, "I know that too."
"You also have the risk of dying."
"That, I shouldn’t have."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
Ju Qingng: "Then I’m relieved."
Ren Zhong: "But I still can’t win. This ans I can’t protect Starfire Town. What about you over there...? Do you have to heed the command to return to Chongyi County?"
Ju Qingng shook her head, "I don’t know."
While shaking her head, she also anxiously rubbed her face.
"What will happen if you disobey orders?"
Ju Qingng: "The Military Weapon Store is part of the Military Industry Group’s industrial system and operates under semi-military managent. The penalties for disobedience are very severe. I would... lose my citizenship."
Ren Zhong: "And then that person can openly co to catch you?"
Ju Qingng: "Yes, theoretically."
"Will it affect your parents?"
"Not really, just that after I lose my job, I can’t give them money or probably won’t be able to return to Chongyi County to see them."
Ren Zhong: "Disobey. Even living as an outcast is better. Go to Chromium Carbon Town, I want to see what that little rich second-generation can do to . We’ll figure out the citizenship later. As for money... I’ll take care of you."
Ju Qingng widened her beautiful eyes, staring at Ren Zhong.
She wanted to say sothing but found Ren Zhong’s eyes were very clear.
After a mont, she smiled, "Okay. You help , and I’ll help you."
"Of course!" Ren Zhong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "By the way, I suggest you look in the mirror."
"Huh?"
A minute later, Ju Qingng’s scream echoed, while Ren Zhong had already vanished.
He went to the Town Governnt Tower again.
On the last day before the battle, he would analyze the confrontation video of the Cold-blooded Butcher together with Ma Xiaoling.
...
Day 90, afternoon.
In the gaze of the public, the arrogant and domineering Cold-blooded Butcher openly challenged Ren Zhong by na.
Ren Zhong smiled in response, stepping out of the crowd, accepting the challenge as he promised.
Countless viewers watching the live stream were shocked.
A stock market star instantly posted a bullet comnt in the stream room.
"That’s it, Boss Ren is dood!"
In the blink of an eye, a city’s underground betting industry instantly activated.
The odds on Ren Zhong dying shot up instantly.
The odds on him surviving fell rapidly.
Clearly, a large amount of money entered the scene, betting on Ren Zhong’s survival.
As for the odds based on the outco, they were basically unchanged.
Ren Zhong winning was seventy to one, while the Butcher winning was 0.2 to one.
The eyes of the masses are bright as snow.
The calculations of the betting company are precise.
Unable to win ans unable to win, regardless of will.
Unless... Ren Zhong used a death-defying drug.
But this ti, he won’t use it.
He has too many reasons, he must bypass the Butcher, this sigh-inducing wall he still can’t break, to see the scenery behind the wall.
This also ans, in a certain sense, he will once again betray the outcasts of Starfire Town.
