Chapter 896: To Kill with a Borrowed Knife!

*Bang*

With a twist of Xia Fei’s wrist, he immediately pulled open the lock of that huge metal crate. The four sides of the crate fell off with a thunderous *thud*, revealing the warbot inside!

What everyone saw was a robot half squatting on the ground like a sprinter at the ready, hugging its body tightly. Its metal frame was sharp and angular all over, with its head lowered, making it impossible for anyone to see clearly what it looked like.

“What? Yin Fei brought a robot?”

“Robots aren’t particularly strange in our circle, and as reality has proven it, even the most outstanding robot can’t replace living beings. He must be daydreaming if he truly thinks that this is enough to turn the tables on the star academy.”

A bout of sniggering broke out in the auction hall. In the Law Realm, robots were mainly used for maintaining cleanliness in an area and as part of a production line. After all, this was where experts gathered. Everyone here was more willing to believe in their own potential than the unfeeling coldness of robots.

Thus, when Xia Fei unveiled Enhanced Warstar to everyone, some were surprised but none found it remarkable. In their eyes, robots were no more than toys in the Law Realm.

All of a sudden—

Just as everyone was laughing, Enhanced Warstar abruptly came alive on the auction stage!

*Thoom*

Everyone watched as the super warbot suddenly got up, and with its darkened electronic eyes, visually scanned the area around it. Its gaze was uncannily sharp, similar to his owner’s.

*Kaboom*

In the next second, Enhanced Warstar extended its arm under the skeptical gaze of the crowd, and all they saw was a mass of mist rapidly appearing on the palm of its mechanical hand, almost like a small whirlwind, and the entire auction hall dropped in temperature by at least ten degrees!

Very soon, the white mist solidified into ice, and it continued to expand in size, in the process of forming a sharp ice spear!

This was the replicated law power of the subsidiary law under the Law of Matter, Ice!

“This is law power!”

“Oh, my god! This robot can actually recreate law from sapient lifeforms!”

“That’s too unbelievable! Is this a robot or a living being?!”

The entire auction hall erupted in a matter of a second! Everyone could not believe their eyes, their mouth hanging agape as they tore at their hair!

To have invented a robot that could replicate law power, this was definitely the most disruptive innovation to the whole Fig Corporation and the entire known universe!

Sapient lifeforms had finally grasped law powers after billions of years of evolution, and before that, they were reliant on warships and big cannons. However, after the appearance of law powers, the initiative that machinery once held was returned to the living.

In the universe now, there were many powerful sapient lifeforms out there that wielded immense power and influence, but with Xia Fei’s law power replication system, the power to devastate was returned to the machines once again! They would now possess the combat strength to surpass the living again!

*Swoosh*

The number of people connected to the auction began to increase explosively. Those employees that did not enjoy joining in the spectacle had also connected, all in hopes of seeing this moment that would change history!

After the initial flurry of chaos, the entire auction hall calmed down again. This was because everyone present could no longer describe what they were feeling anymore. Enhanced Warstar was using that Law of Ice power to attack that old-fashioned armor plating from before!

*Whoosh*

Everyone saw as that warbot raised its palm gently, and that huge armor plating not too far away swiftly began to condense, turning from black into white! It let out a bright and cold gleam.

It then approached the plating and clenched one fist, now wrapped in a white light.

*Bang*

It was a simple punch, and that metal armor plating which weighed several dozen tons promptly turned into powdered snow! Fine powdered snow that came falling down all over the auction hall!

Shock!

Commotion!

A mental assault!

The entire place clamored! An ear-piercing gasp could be heard from the entire Fig Corporation!

Everyone had been completely stupefied by the law attack from Enhanced Warstar, to the degree where they were finding it hard to recover from their stupefaction!

*Crash*

Laika had suddenly let go of his hand and dropped the Antimatter Ray that he had been so proud of onto the ground. His expression was as white as a sheet of blank paper!

As the highest authority in all of Fig Star Academy, Laika had controlled the antimatter’s power, but the anonymous Yin Fei from Independent College had changed history in just one move!

This was most definitely a contest on an entirely different level! When Xia Fei’s profound gaze turned over, Laika could feel his entire body going soft, as if he had just been looked down upon by a god!

Smiling, Xia Fei picked up that Antimatter Ray from the ground and returned it to Laika, casually patting him on the shoulder. It was a very strange smile, and his gaze was unreadable.

Before that stunned auctioneer could say a word, the numbers on the screen began to jump rapidly! Someone had begun to bid for this super warbot!

The first bid was 500 million!

One billion!

1.5 billion!

Two billion!

In just a few seconds, the numbers on the screen had already surged past two billion! Before, Fig Star Academy and every student only gathered a total of 1.26 billion points, but it seemed like these people who were throwing out astronomical bids for Enhanced Warstar apparently had heaven-defying funds! A single bid and it was already in the billions!

Taking a glance at the screen through the corner of his eye, Xia Fei confirmed that the people who were bidding were none other than those anonymous individuals whom he had previously identified! They were the mysterious figures who hid themselves amid the crowd and had not said a word.

2.5 billion!

Three billion!

“Oh, my god! This is just too crazy!”

These anonymous mysterious people’s bids had everyone going crazy! It was hard to imagine just what sort of monster could have had so many points in their hands.

In order for them to thrash Independent College, the people of the star academy had already given it their best, but it was unfortunate that they were absolutely no match for these anonymous people. These were people who could pull out billions of points just by themselves; it must be stated that points were awarded in accordance to the contribution one made to the company, and it was not easy to accumulate so many. Just this fact alone anyone told them that these people were very powerful and very important figures in Fig Corporation!

The screen flashed one last time, and a very odd number appeared.

3,671,054,355!? To think it would not be a round figure?!

Xia Fei chuckled. Indubitably, this meant someone had staked his entire fortune on the bet, all in an effort of owning this Enhanced Warstar, this individual had emptied out their pockets down to the last point!

To have reached this degree, it also signaled the end of the auction. It was as if the person who had made that last bid defeated every other bidder, and no one had the points to challenge him. This also meant that the person who had made the bid was the one who owned the most points in the entire Fig Corporation!

Xia Fei did not have to guess who this person was. To have accumulated so many points, there was no doubt that they were an unparalleled individual in the company!

Whether they were from Independent College or Fig Star Academy, from those holding high posts like a director right down to logistic staff that managed sanitation, the entire Fig Corporation was going wild!

No one had ever seen so many points before, and no one had ever seen such a super robot that could change the face of the universe, either!

“Won! We won!” Flynn suddenly came to a start and began yelling when he got up from his seat and raised his arms high in the air

The Elderly Eleven from Independent College hugged one another, sobbing.

This had been an unprecedented counterattack!

From the star academy in the lead with 1.26 billion points versus Independent College with a score of zero, the latter had managed to do a reverse sweep and actually earned three times the points over the former!

Xia Fei alone had defeated the tens of thousands of enemies from the star academy!

This was a slap in the face that rang loud! It was one slap that had directly killed off half the entire Fig Corporation!

Surprise, perseverance, and insanity—a myriad of reactions and expressions made for an absolutely chaotic scene.

In this disarray, Xia Fei secretly took several steps backward, and after darting a good distance away, a very puzzling fire burned in his eyes. Ordinarily, after the dust had settled by now and Xia Fei had achieved a complete victory over the three giants of the star academy, he ought to be celebrating. As such, what could be the reason for Xia Fei to remain so composed? Could it be that, to him, this counterattack he had just unleashed did not do sufficient damage?

Suddenly~

Laika lifted that Antimatter Ray weapon and pointed it directly at Enhanced Warstar! It was as if Laika had decided that he could not stand the shame of the outcome and had decided to destroy this one of a kind warbot!

“DON’T!” Xia Fei let out a pained yell that called everyone’s attention toward him. However, why was it that a hint of glee could be heard in his anguished cry?

*Swoosh*

Enhanced Warstar had not been for nothing; when it noticed that something was off, it immediately began evasive maneuvers, but it was just that it did not evade in a good direction; it was heading straight toward the crowd!

*Bang*

No one would have imagined that Laika would actually fire the Antimatter Ray!

Everyone could only watch as a glowing mass of black shot out, heading right for Enhanced Warstar!

With a swift shuffle, Enhanced Warstar very nimbly dodged the attack, but those unarmed people behind it were due for tragedy. At that very moment, wails rang out in the hall as over a hundred employees of Fig Corporation lost their lives, then and there!

Laika did not stop there, though. As if he had lost his mind, he fired seven more shots in the span of a second! Every shot killed or injured hundreds!

It must be stated that these people present were all staunch advocates of the star academy, who had all come to support the three giants. Alas, in the end, they found themselves dying for no apparent reason at the hand of the leader of the three giants, Laika! Just what sort of sense would this make?

*Bang*

Yet another shot was fired, and Enhanced Warstar had positioned itself too well; it was sandwiched right in the middle of the other two members of the three giants, Krim and Yanfeng! This time, the warbot did not dodge the attack. The black ray blasted past, and Enhanced Warstar was destroyed, but so did Krim and Yanfeng beside him, as well as the talented student Zack!

This was most definitely an unexpected conclusion!

Xia Fei let out a shout, nearly fainting over. Honestly, Xia Fei’s acting talent was simply too great. That expression, a complex mix of anguish and pain, was almost good enough to win an Oscar!

No one had seemed to realize that, in the commotion, the one suffering the greatest was actually Laika!

He had killed thousands with his own two hands, yet Laika actually had no idea what was happening, for he had been passive during the entire ordeal!

He had no idea why the Antimatter Ray in his hand had suddenly lost control. There was suddenly some force being exerted over it that caused Laika to do something so crazy!

After the robot got destroyed, that inexplicable force also left with it, but it was already too late. He saw the look on the faces of those close to him, the palpable anger that wished they could just skin and eat him alive! The student whom he had been proud of, Zack, was dead, while his left and right hand men, Yanfeng and Krim, were also dead! They all died at his own hands!

The expression on Laika’s face right then and there was absolutely exciting!

This was a really cruel application of the proverb: ‘to kill with a borrowed knife.’ Emerging victorious in the auction was not something Xia Fei wanted. What he truly wanted was for the eradication of the three giants! Those supporters of theirs would all die as well, even more so for the disciple of the three giants, Zack!

Die! They all had to die!

As for the technology of replicated law power, there was even less of a chance that Xia Fei would just hand it over! He would rather destroy his hard work than let it slip from his grasp! Xia Fei paid the price with a single warbot and eliminated all his enemies! Sweeping away an unprecedented amount of points in the process!

The sin of killing over thousands of people today was on Laika’s back! Having been the one who destroyed the robot, Laika would also be the one to repay the over three billion points spent! It was still Laika who was guilty for causing the mysterious and powerful individual in the shadows to lose his chance in obtaining the warbot!

Even if Laika still lived, he was now fated for a life better off dead!

This was Xia Fei’s retaliation!

Ruthless!

Absolutely ruthless!

Sweeping away all enemies without staining his hands in blood!
