    โ€œBang!โ€

    As Song Yu bent down to dodge, he heard a crisp sound of a bullet hitting metal.

    He frowned and sharply looked up.

    A piece of blue metal shielded him like a protective barrier.

    [Eh? Why did I move on my own?]

    Holding hands, Song Yu could hear 01โ€™s voice.

    โ€œWasnโ€™t it you who told him to protect me?โ€ Song Yu tilted his head to look at Rong Shi.

    Rong Shi shook his head, also puzzled.

    01 usually makes small moves based on previous commandsโ€”deliberate autonomous actions.

    But this time, protecting Song Yu didnโ€™t seem to be under its own control.

    Footsteps approached fast, and Rong Shi had no time to ponder further.

    01 protecting Song Yu automatically was the best thing for him.

    He quickly scanned around, and before the attackers noticed, he retracted 01 and rushed with Song Yu toward the freight elevator.

    โ€œLetโ€™s go up.โ€

    Exposing 01 would be a huge problem for them.

    Advanced weapons have always been the hottest target for power groups across eras.

    Song Yu, protected by Rong Shi, ran and dodged while thinking he must have misheard.

    โ€œWhy arenโ€™t we looking for an exit? Why go up?โ€

    Peeking through the gaps between shelves, Rong Shi observed the attackersโ€™ movements.

    โ€œFinding an exit is for leaving, but right now, I donโ€™t want to leave.โ€

    AI guards controlled by 01 began to gather nearby, firing at the attackers and buying them time.

    The freight elevator doors opened automatically; the two got inside.

    While the elevator ascended, Song Yu removed his magazine and quickly replaced it with a fresh one from his waist.

    โ€œWhat do you want to do?โ€

    After asking, he saw Rong Shi spinning 01โ€™s form between his fingers, then transforming it into a ghostly blue heavy sniper rifle.

    The weapon looked similar to a WM209, known as the โ€œKing of Heavy Snipers,โ€ though with some subtle differences.

    Song Yuโ€™s eyes flashed, heart suddenly racing.

    That dead rabbit wouldnโ€™t beโ€”

    Reaching the top floor, Rong Shi led Song Yu out of the elevator and quickly walked down the corridor.

    [Master, activate normal mode?]

    Rong Shi scanned the surroundings, looking for a good sniping spot: โ€œProtect Xiao Yu well, I donโ€™t need your assistance here.โ€

    [Understood.]

    Listening to their conversation and looking at the heavy sniper, Song Yuโ€™s doubts grew.

    Rong Shi said 01 was a personal intelligent AI assistant, not only with intelligence beyond normal AIs but also able to transform freely into various weapons.

    Such a device, if exposed, would cost Rong Shi his life.

    Gunfire continued below.

    Rong Shi kicked open a door, pressed against the wall, and looked through a window downward.

    The entire station looked like a giant stadium, and their position overlooked the main hall.

    Rong Shi set up the heavy sniper, pulled back the bolt, and aimed through the maze-like shelves, searching for the attackers.

    โ€œCall your men over.โ€

    Song Yu: โ€œReinforcements should arrive in five minutes at mostโ€”โ€

    โ€œNo reinforcements needed.โ€ Rong Shi pulled the trigger, a bullet blew off an attackerโ€™s head in the hall.

    โ€œBlock off the three-kilometer area around the station, donโ€™t alert other forces.โ€

    Song Yuโ€™s heart jumped when he heard him say quietly, โ€œAim at your men, donโ€™t let a single one escape.โ€

    The bunny is angry.

    His expression was as cold as ever, but Song Yu was sure he was furious.

    Rong Shi seemed indifferent but always left room to maneuver, never taking things to the extreme.

    He was always cautious, thinking of safe retreats instead of counterattacks when faced with assassination.

    But now, heโ€™d put aside all concerns and was ready to make a big scene.

    Inside the hall, the group of attackers took several minutes to eliminate the AI guards but realized their targets had disappeared.

    โ€œUse infrared sensors!โ€ one attacker ordered, โ€œDivide into three teams, move towards the rear exits.โ€

    โ€œYesโ€”โ€ One attacker nodded halfway, then suddenly fell backward heavily.

    Blood splattered on the shelves, leaving a long trail on the floor.

    โ€œShit!โ€ Several attackers quickly retreated from the fallen comrade, guns raised and alert.

    A heavy object dropped.

    Another attacker fell.

    A bullet hit him between the eyes, killing him instantly.

    โ€œGet out of here!โ€ The team leader hurriedly led his members behind shelves.

    Another heavy object dropped.

    The attacker near the leader was shot in the head, blood splashing onto half his face.

    โ€œFind their location!โ€ The leaderโ€™s face flushed with rage and dread.

    If they didnโ€™t finish quickly, theyโ€™d all die here!

    One attacker raised a scanner, probing in all directions.

    Suddenly the device alarmed, and he shouted, โ€œThisโ€”โ€

    Before finishing, pain shot through his hand, and he instinctively pulled back.

    The scanner and his palm were pierced!

    Pain spread outward from his hand, he clenched his wrist tightly, sweat breaking on his forehead: โ€œOver thereโ€”โ€

    Before he finished, a high-pressure air pellet pierced through the bulletproof metal and into his forehead.

    The team leader looked up at the bullet hole on the metal shield, dread growing stronger.

    In less than two minutes, without even spotting the sniper hidden in the dark, their thirty-person team was down to five.

    โ€œRequest reinforcements!โ€ the leader shouted angrily into the comms, โ€œBlock the exits, they canโ€™t escape! Everyone else, move in!โ€

    On the rooftop, Song Yu watched Rong Shi effortlessly pick off attackers, playing them like a cat with mice, growing excited.

    โ€œYouโ€™ve trained for this since you were a kid?โ€

    Despite Rong Shiโ€™s usual old cadre vibe, he was only eighteen.

    Such experienced shooting skills required years of high-intensity training.

    Rong Shi nonchalantly took out another attacker, noticing reinforcements arriving, a faint smile on his lips.

    โ€œNo special training.โ€

    Damn!

    Seeing that confident faint smile, Song Yu cursed silently.

    Does he really think no matter how many people, theyโ€™re all within his shooting range?

    If not for the situation, Song Yu wanted to shove him against the wall and kiss him enough.

    Bunny in battle posture โ€” completely irresistible!

    โ€œWant to learn?โ€ Rong Shi glanced at him, โ€œIโ€™ll teach you.โ€

    Song Yu pressed against the wall, took the heavy sniper handed over.

    Rong Shi wrapped his arms around him from behind, whispering instructions and techniques in his ear.

    The deep voice exploded next to his ear, electric tingles spread throughout his body, and Song Yu twitched his tingling fingers, thinking โ€œDamn demon.โ€

    Luckily, he had locked this person down early.

    Song Yu steadied his mind, forcing himself to focus.

    โ€œWhere does 01 get its bullets?โ€

    โ€œCompressed air.โ€ Rong Shi explained, โ€œDifferent compression levels cause very different lethality.โ€

    Men have a natural love for weapons, and Song Yu was like a kid with a new toy, more and more excited.

    โ€œThatโ€™s enough.โ€

    When only about twenty attackers remained in the hall, Rong Shi stopped Song Yu from shooting further.

    Sniping from the same angle too long would eventually be noticed.

    โ€œSlow down, letโ€™s handle the cars outside first.โ€ Rong Shi led him out.

    โ€œArenโ€™t you afraid theyโ€™ll catch up?โ€ Song Yu asked.

    โ€œNo.โ€ Rong Shiโ€™s tone was certain. โ€œThe casualties are enough deterrence. They wonโ€™t act rashly now. Iโ€™m more afraid theyโ€™ll retreat if their numbers dwindle too much.โ€ Only Rong Shi would say something so wild.

    Song Yu hummed carelessly but smiled.

    They quickly passed the corridor and reached a room near the outer side.

    Looking out the window, they saw modified hover cars gathered around the station outside.

    Observing their movements, Song Yu suddenly heard Rong Shi apologize again.

    โ€œForget it.โ€ Song Yu gave up. โ€œWeโ€™re both wrong once. Even it out.โ€

    Rong Shi knew he was worried but pushed him away; he also knew Song Yu would get angry but still ram the door. No one could teach either of them.

    โ€œIโ€™ve never lost judgment because of worry.โ€ Rong Shi looked down, โ€œIf you do something this dangerous again, Iโ€™ll still get mad.โ€

    Snapping back, Song Yu understood Rong Shiโ€™s intention.

    He was the bait, drawing the carsโ€™ firepower towards the gate, then making a sharp turn at the last moment to create an escape route.

    Before Song Yu could speak, Rong Shi added, โ€œI donโ€™t treat you like a delicate flower, but if it happens again, Iโ€™ll make the same choice.โ€

    Song Yu, who had calmed down, was speechless.

    After all this, it boiled down to: โ€œI know I was wrong, but Iโ€™ll still dare to do it next time.โ€

    โ€œYou really want to argue with me?โ€ Song Yu spoke heavily.

    Rong Shi raised the sniper, pulled the bolt, โ€œIf I make a mistake again, you can argue with me againโ€”โ€

    Song Yu froze, frowned, and snapped, โ€œYou damnโ€”โ€

    โ€œCouples arguing is normal,โ€ Rong Shi said without expression, adjusting his aim through the scope, โ€œBut I also like it when you yell at me.โ€

    The anger instantly vanished.

    Song Yu gritted his teeth, angry yet secretly delighted.

    The damn rabbit had completely captivated him.

    So hateful!

    Rong Shi: โ€œ01, expand. Increase compression by 300%.โ€

    As he finished speaking, the heavy sniperโ€™s shape shifted like a mech transforming, its outer shell and internal structure rapidly changing.

    Rong Shi pulled the bolt and fired at the modified cars a kilometer away.

    Boom! Flames erupted.

    The modified hover car in the middle exploded.

    A shower of parts flew from the smoke, scattered everywhere.

    What was thought to be only sniping the drivers actually blew the whole car into pieces.

    Song Yu was shocked by the power of a single air pellet.

    Where on earth did the rabbit get 01?

    Explosions echoed from all directions โ€” clearly abnormal.

    The attackersโ€™ leader frantically tried to contact outside but found no connection.

    He crouched in a corner under layers of metal, gritted his teeth, and ordered a retreat.

    But halfway through, they were ambushed by hundreds of AI guards.

    Their morale broken by the sniper, their combat effectiveness plummeted; half died under initial fire.

    โ€œDamn it!โ€ The leader cursed, โ€œWhy didnโ€™t command warn us they had such deadly weapons?!โ€

    This mission was supposed to be an assassination on Rong Shi, but now the hunters had become the hunted!

    Hearing movement behind, he turned sharply only to have an AI guard point a gun to his forehead.

    His eyes widened, pupils shrinking, heart pounding.

    The AI pushed the gun forward and pulled the trigger: โ€œBang!โ€

    The attackerโ€™s legs gave out, and he collapsed.

    Suddenly, soap bubbles appeared at the gunโ€™s muzzle.

    โ€œHahaha, not scared at all โ€” you dare mess with 01โ€™s sponsor, youโ€™re dead.โ€

    The AI guard stepped on him, bent down, and picked him up like a chicken to carry away.

    Except for the captured leader, all attackers were eliminated.

    Song Yu stood by the window watching his subordinate Ban Li bring people in to clean up the wrecked hall.

    He joked, โ€œWrecked a whole station. Donโ€™t know how much compensation you owe, you spoiled rabbit.โ€

    Putting 01 back into its decorative buckle, Rong Shi took Song Yuโ€™s hand and headed to the elevator.

    โ€œYou like giving me gifts, so are you happy now?โ€

    The two bickered casually as they walked.

    Downstairs, the blood smell was thick.

    Song Yu frowned, โ€œDonโ€™t know which idiot planned such a big assassination.โ€

    โ€œStupid, but effective.โ€ Rong Shiโ€™s gaze swept the attackersโ€™ bodies on the ground. โ€œSome people canโ€™t hold back anymore.โ€

    Seeing them come down, Ban Li respectfully reported, โ€œWe found the same tattoo on their arms. If Iโ€™m not mistaken, theyโ€™re from the Star Pirates.โ€

    โ€œNo.โ€ Rong Shiโ€™s voice was very calm, โ€œThese people are regular military.โ€

    So sure? He was about to ask why when Song Yu interrupted.

    โ€œRong Shi, whatโ€™s that?โ€ Song Yu pointed to the second shelf ahead, his face darkening.

    Rong Shi followed his finger, eyes narrowing.

    A damaged package spilled several syringes.

    Rong Shi took one and twisted the syringe, revealing a familiar line of letters:

    โ€œSYT7737.โ€

      I love it when couples atgue, but the stress of their battle was so intense! Super high energy fights are amazing.
