Chapter 496: "Superman"

One minute to eliminate all the killers?

"Hey, this is a highway! Be careful! You could easily fall off!" Yao Qing kindly warned Chen Ling, seeing him standing on the car's roof. To Yao Qing, based on his knowledge of physics, Chen Ling's action was nothing short of suicidal.

"I'm not like anyone you've met before.""I'll be running forward when they're all rushing for the door."

The car's music roared in the wind, its rhythmic drumbeats accompanying the boning knife dancing in Chen Ling's hand, which suddenly tightened its grip mid-air. His eyes narrowed slightly...

The next moment, he stepped out, leaping from the speeding car's roof, seemingly treading on thin air, suspended mid-flight! His brown trench coat flapped wildly in the wind. His figure, suspended above the highway, seemed divine. As he subtly lifted a finger, all surveillance cameras, dashcams, and even mobile phone cameras along that section of the road simultaneously malfunctioned! The "electronic eyes" created by human science, at that moment, lost their power to look directly at him or record him.

Seeing the figure step by step ascending from the car roof into the void, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief! "He... he he he... he's flying?!" Yao Qing's mind instantly crashed as he witnessed this through his rearview mirror. "What's going on?!" A killer, driving at the moment, rubbed his eyes. "Am I still dreaming... I think I just saw Superman..."

Meanwhile, faint electromagnetic flickers coursed through Chen Ling's pupils, his eyes clearly reflecting the four vehicles rapidly pursuing him. "Three gasoline cars, one electric car... An electric car? Hmm... good."

Chen Ling extended his left hand towards the fastest-moving new energy electric car, grasping at the air. Immediately, the car's dashboard and main screen became chaotic, flickering with meaningless circuit patterns. As the two killers in the driver and passenger seats stared in bewilderment, the steering wheel suddenly spun wildly out of control, as if gripped by an invisible hand, veering the car directly into an adjacent vehicle!

"In a world full of followers, I'll be a leader.""In a world full of doubters, I'll be a believer."

*Boom—!!!*

Under Chen Ling's watchful gaze, the two cars collided at immense speed! The electric car instantly twisted and deformed, blinding flames erupting from its chassis. A scorching fireball burst and rolled across the highway, and the screams of the two killers abruptly ceased. The other car, struck by the electric vehicle, had most of its front end pulverized by the terrifying kinetic energy. Spinning wildly, it crashed directly off the highway's edge, plunging towards the ground below, followed immediately by a second thunderous crash!

Chen Ling stood in the void, his gaze so calm it held no ripple. In this era, electric cars were full of vulnerabilities for him; with just a wave of his hand, he could seize all control and effortlessly guide them to their demise. "Two left," Chen Ling murmured, watching the two gasoline cars speed past him. He moved like a cloud, transforming into a brown flash of lightning as he darted forward!

The killers in the remaining two cars were utterly terrified by the preceding events. "No, what did he just do?" "Couldn't see clearly... He just waved his hand, and those two cars crashed?" "Damn it! What rotten luck! Taking this messed-up job, going bankrupt, and now running into Superman... I would've rather died than get involved in this mess!" "Superman? I don't believe in any Superman."

In the passenger seat of one car, a man covered in dragon and snake tattoos spoke viciously, pulling a handgun from beneath his seat and forcefully racking a round with a loud *click*! "Let's give him a magazine full of bullets and see if he dies!"

As he finished speaking, a brown-clad figure descended from the sky, landing lightly on the road in front of the car, like a ghost. "He... he's here!!" The killer driving instantly grew incredibly tense, gripping the steering wheel tightly, cold sweat beading on his forehead. "What are you scared of? Floor it and run him over!"

The man in the passenger seat's eyes flashed with savagery. He directly opened the sunroof, climbed out of the car, and aimed the dark muzzle of his gun at Chen Ling, who stood on the road ahead. He cursed furiously into the gale: "Die!!"

*Bang bang bang bang bang—!!*

Roaring gunshots exploded one after another. Empty casings flew backward with the wind as the man's finger relentlessly pulled the trigger, emptying an entire magazine into the figure! Chen Ling did not evade at all. Crimson "flowers" bloomed across his body. He stood like a mountain before the roaring vehicle, the bullets riddling him with wounds, yet failing to make him retreat even half a step... Blood dripped from his clothing, quickly spreading into a pool at his feet. His gaze fixed on the rapidly approaching car, and he slowly clenched his right fist...

"He's been hit! He's completely riddled with bullets!" The killer in the passenger seat burst into laughter. "Floor it!! Run him over and kill him!!" Seeing Chen Ling wounded, the driver finally relaxed somewhat. He stomped on the accelerator, and the needle on the dashboard surged wildly. The car roared towards Chen Ling at nearly two hundred miles per hour! One hundred fifty meters, one hundred meters, fifty meters, ten meters... In the blink of an eye, the vehicle sped forward with a roaring engine, so close that both men could clearly see the bullet holes on Chen Ling's body, the crimson stains, and... the faint smile playing on his blood-stained lips.

"And now I'm ready to show... I'm going all in."

*CRUNCH—!!!*

At the peak of the car's music drumbeat, Chen Ling's fist crushed the car, which was hurtling with terrifying kinetic energy, into fragments. A visible circular shockwave expanded outwards, and unparalleled power poured forth from his blood-stained attire! The car's hood instantly deformed, all its windows shattered explosively, and fine glass shards sprayed mid-air... In that instant, Chen Ling's calm, serene face was clearly reflected in the constricted pupils of the two killers.

What followed was a dizzying disorientation. A car, utterly demolished by Chen Ling's single punch, flipped and rolled through the air like scrap metal. Chen Ling remained rooted to the spot, slowly retracting his fist. Veins pulsed visibly on his crimson fist, and his blood-stained trench coat gently swayed over the pooling blood. He calmly turned his head, looking at the last car still pursuing Su Zhiwei, and murmured: "...One left."
