20 The Domineering Flame Devil

"Do you want to go fight the python, or do you want me to do it?" Looking at the giant steel python, Lin Qing put his hand behind his back and prepared to pull out the Flame Devil.

"I'll do it." Huang Quan moved his arms and legs. "I want to see where my limits are. If I can't handle it, then you can attack."

"Alright. I'll leave it to you." Lin Qing stepped back and prepared to watch from the side.

Lin Qing couldn't possibly be the one doing everything. After all, if this went on, he wouldn't be able to train Huang Quan, and Huang Quan's god-like physique would go to waste sooner or later.

With a loud roar, Huang Quan charged toward the python step by step. He ran faster and faster, and his aura became more and more imposing. He created huge holes as he stepped on the concrete road.

He could cover a distance of over a hundred meters in a matter of seconds. Even then, by the time he reached the python, he had already gathered his strength.

He took a heavy step, twisted his waist, and punched the python.

Boom!

The punch knocked down the steel python, which was as thick as a bucket and over 40 meters long, and smashed it into a building, causing smoke and dust to rise and the ground to shake.

In the distance, Ye Daying was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. He had been taught another lesson. "Ridiculous. How can he kill even such a large steel beast? Is he still human?"

However, there was not even the slightest hint of happiness on Huang Quan's face as he stood on the spot. On the contrary, his expression became even more solemn.

He was very clear about how powerful this punch was. Although he had already used his full strength, it didn't feel right, as it didn't break through the thick, scaly armor of the python at all.

Instead, it only caused a superficial wound.

"Sss—" The python raised its head from the ruins. With most of its body suspended in the air, it roared and then opened its mouth wide to bite down on Huang Quan at an unbelievably fast speed. A gust of wind blew past as it reached Huang Quan.

"Pfft!" Before he could react, Huang Quan's shoulder was bitten. He was now using both hands to block the python's mouth that was about to close.

If the python really bit down on his shoulder, this arm would definitely be gone.

Ye Daying's heart was in his throat as he watched this scene. "Why hasn't Big Boss made his move yet? We're going to die!"

Huang Quan specialized in his strength, so the python was unable to bite down on him no matter what when he was holding its mouth. It could only swing its body and crash into a large building.

Rumble!

When Huang Quan's back came into contact with the countless steel bars and cement, half of his body went numb.

All of a sudden, he felt the python loosen its grip on him. Regardless of the consequences, he swung his fist at the python and smashed it.

Both man and beast were giants, so their battle was in full swing and extremely intense as tall buildings collapsed one after another. Ye Daying felt his blood boiling as he watched this battle.

Seeing that other steel beasts were going to surround them, Lin Qing attacked and killed each beast with a punch.

This area was full of the sounds of battle that rumbled into the distance.

"F*ck! I can't take it anymore!" Five minutes later, Huang Quan sent out a cry for help. He had been fighting well, but the python suddenly wrapped itself around him. Its 40-meter-long body locked him from head to toe, causing him to be unable to move at all.

Its scales had fallen out countless times. The panting python raised its head and prepared to swallow him.

Bang! Ye Daying opened fire and hit the python's head. But this only caused sparks to fly and a white mark to appear on its head.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He raised his hand and fired three more shots at the python's eyes. Unfortunately, the python tilted its head, and he missed.

"Second Boss, have a safe journey!" Ye Daying lost all hope.

"Tilt your head!"

A faint voice sounded in Huang Quan's ears. He immediately tilted his head without thinking.

Shua!

A red blade light rushed over fiercely and flashed past him. The next second, the steel python roared as its upper body was sent flying.

Looking at the other half of the python's body that was still struggling, Lin Qing quickly stepped forward and stepped on its heart. Then he stabbed the Flame Devil in his hand downward, penetrating the python's head and nailing it to the ground.

The Flame Devil was so domineering that very few enemies at the same level could withstand a single strike from it. Moreover, Lin Qing had launched a sneak attack and caught the steel python unaware, so the python died just like that without any suspense.

Sitting in ruins, Huang Quan weakly shouted in Ye Daying's direction, "Kid, it's your turn to work."

A loud voice rang out as Ye Daying hugged Huang Quan's thigh and cried, "Second Boss, I almost thought you were gone!"

"Get lost. Get to work!"

"Okay!" Ye Daying quickly rushed toward the steel python. When he looked at the neat and smooth wound, he couldn't help but look at Lin Qing.

He had witnessed the entire process. That red sword was so powerful that it easily sliced apart the giant python that even Huang Quan couldn't kill.

He now had a new understanding of Lin Qing's strength.

"How are you? Still okay?" Lin Qing walked to Huang Quan, who was in a sorry state.

"Ahhh, let's not talk about it. I originally thought that with my strength, I should be able to deal a shocking blow to this python. But I overestimated myself."

"Actually, you're already very strong. You were able to defend against an adult python after evolving three times. What else do you want?"

"You don't have to comfort me. I understand."

Looking at Huang Quan's downcast expression, Lin Qing couldn't help laughing. "You suffer in terms of your combat skills and your lack of understanding toward the habits of these wild beasts.

"Let's not talk about your combat skills. After all, you probably haven't fought many times since you were young. Although you have my guidance, you can't become an expert in a day or two.

"Let's talk about the habits of the beasts. Although they've turned into steel, their basic body structures and habits are still present.

"Pythons rest in dark corners, while the crocodiles we previously encountered like to hide in water. This is their nature that has been carved into their bones and can't be changed.

"Crocodiles are strongest in their tail lashing and instantaneous biting force. And pythons are good at binding their opponents. Its long body and flexible bones can allow them to strangle prey several times stronger than themselves.

"If you hadn't been careless and allowed the python to restrain you but instead continued fighting it, no one can say for sure who would have won. Furthermore, when you fight a snake, you should aim for its heart. What use is there if you hit its tail and spine…"

While Lin Qing was teaching Huang Quan, Ye Daying was eavesdropping with his ears pricked. He didn't even pay any attention to what he was currently doing.

These things far surpassed what Jiang Cheng and the rest at the base could teach. After all, these things had been summarized from many life and death battles. If Lin Qing hadn't mentioned them, he might not know for his entire life.

After a while, Ye Daying handed the crystals he had gathered to Lin Qing.

Lin Qing grabbed two handfuls of crystals and swallowed them to replenish the energy he spent today. Then he picked out the crystal from the python and gave it to Huang Quan.

"If you can't break through and evolve for the fourth time today, I won't play with you anymore."

He finally found out why Huang Quan had joined the military in his previous life. Ordinary people really couldn't afford to raise such a big eater.

"Ahem ahem! Big Boss, I'm following you now. Can you really bear to let me starve?"

Huang Quan received the crystal with a smile and swallowed it. The injuries on his body slowly recovered, and some parts of his body that the giant python had beaten were restored to their original form. His body was now as white as snow, and his eyes shone brightly.

But this wasn't the end. His body grew a meter taller and became lighter as his strength increased again.

The fourth evolution finished, and the 車 character on him was only one stroke away from completion.

"How comfortable!" Huang Quan stood up and jumped. He clenched his fist and tried to throw a punch, causing a loud and dull sound to echo in the air.

"If I have to fight another python, I can kill it."

"Second Boss is mighty!" Ye Dayang raised his hands and cheered.

"Stop flattering him. If you can't improve your strength, it's best that you get lost quickly." Lin Qing gave him the remaining dozens of ordinary crystals. "I'll give you a suggestion. Practice your shooting skills well, as that's your only way out."

In his previous life, he had been a motorcycle himself, so he naturally knew the limits of this type of Motorbot. It was impossible for them to rely on their strength, so they could only rely on external forces.
