“Are you telling me that the person who is driving the Gundam¹ is Blue Flash?”

“I saw Blue Flash yesterday. Although it might seem unbelievable, this guy is really Blue Flash…”

“What a joke! Blue Flash is a powerhouse who is adept at agility. This mecha driver’s fortes are obviously body strength and stamina!”

A massive amount of question marks and discussions filled the bullet screen of Lin Yao’s live stream. The ladies sitting on chairs and looking for suitable missions were also staring at Lin Yao’s live stream with a puzzled expression mingled with admiration.

They were puzzled, as they couldn’t figure out why Lin Yao was suddenly controlling an enormous energy mecha. They were filled with admiration because Lin Yao, who was controlling the mecha, looked extremely majestic and dashing. He exuded a great sense of security.

“Ah Yao, you’re so handsome!”

Upon seeing Lin Yao, who was in the mecha, on the screen, even Qin Ya felt dazed for a moment, let alone Qin Ya, Yan Yu’er, and the other ladies.

It was even more tragic for Jin Cheng and the group. Obviously feeling indignant after Qin Ya had given up on them, they entered Lin Yao’s live stream as soon as it started, hoping to find fault with him. Then, they were also stunned by the majestic, powerful mecha.

“Impossible. This is not true. This is an illusion. It must be an illusion!”

Some people were shocked, some people couldn’t believe it, and some were filled with admiration. In any case, there were many discussions about Lin Yao.

At the same time, men loved mechas. Many people who were attracted by the name Blue Flash were also glued to the mecha, reluctant to exit the live stream.

It was not only men but also women. Although the latter had no feelings for the mecha, they were amazed by Lin Yao’s good looks.

As someone who could earn a living with his looks, Lin Yao had attracted numerous people with his handsome looks alone. His good looks were paired with sufficient competence, so his live stream started bustling instantly.

Besides, Qin Ya had also spread the news of Lin Yao’s live stream in Tianhai City and Ninghai City, which were the bases of Lin Yao’s popularity.

She had even contacted the higher-ups of the local governments in order to maximize the topics and enthusiasm.

“Lin Yao is a native of Ninghai City. Half of the merit points he earns will be spent in his hometown. He is having a live stream now. If you guys share his live stream battles, this will stabilize the situation of the city greatly.”

This was what Qin Ya told Ninghai City. Having a powerhouse fighting for the safety of the local area would certainly boost the morale of Ninghai City. As a result, Lin Yao’s live stream had been officially promoted by the authorities of Ninghai City.

Although Tianhai City was not the place Lin Yao came from, he had received a large investment from it. Therefore, he was also regarded as a guardian angel there.

When the city was attacked and the residents panicked, they would naturally reveal this in order to boost their morale.

After confirming Lin Yao’s strength and his ability to improve morale, they also promoted his live stream immediately.

As a result, unbeknownst to Lin Yao, all his family, friends, and relatives were watching him at the moment.

His family members were completely shocked by this. Lin Xiaodie, who was on her way to school, was dumbfounded upon seeing the god-like Lin Yao on the screen.

“Is that my elder brother?”

She was stunned, so her voice was somewhat loud.

This attracted the gazes of many people, making the teachers and students turn their heads toward the screen with scorching gazes.

“Xiaodie, is that your elder brother?”

“Your brother is so dashing. Xiaodie, we are on really good terms. Do you think you could…”

The live stream was bustling. Although Lin Yao was unaware of this, Qin Ya didn’t intend to let him interact with the audience because she knew it was more important for Lin Yao to fight and not interact during the live stream.

Yan Yu’er was the one interacting with the audience and making introductions. Lin Yao only needed to complete his mission without any distractions. If any accident were to occur, they would stop the live stream immediately.

He had agreed to the live stream on this condition.

After arriving at the satellite city, Lin Yao followed Qin Ya’s instructions and went to a remote place. This was where a suspicious target was located.

By launching Electromagnetic Induction, he soon discovered three mission targets. He didn’t intend to fly to them. After perceiving the targets, he flapped his wings and flew 1,000 meters straight up to the sky.

Following that, while he was high in the sky, Lin Yao closed his eyes slightly and raised his right hand high.

Before he made this move, the almost 8-meter-tall battle armor transformed by the lion king had also raised its right hand, which was filled with flowing energy.

By raising his hand toward the sky, he’d attracted some people’s attention.

“What is he doing?”

“Why is he not completing the mission? Didn’t they say that Blue Flash needs less than a minute to complete a task?”

“One minute for one mission? What kind of rubbish are you spouting?”

“No, I don’t think so. No one would believe it. That’s just an exaggerated publicity stunt…”

Boom!

Just as the citizens started clamoring about Lin Yao’s action. There was a sudden, loud boom. Although it came from the screen, the violent, booming noise made many people tremble.

After the loud boom, a golden thunderbolt struck the sky like a divine sword. The thunderbolt was so dazzling that the sky looked dark in comparison, as if it was nighttime.

The raging golden thunderbolt, with its fierce rumbling sounds and echo, left many of the netizens feeling dumbstruck. After a long time, comments started flashing across the bullet screen.

“This… What is this?”

“Is he releasing… I don’t think so…”

“It can’t be… That person…”

The intermittent comments only went to show how affected the people typing them were.

However, no one responded. The shocking thunderbolt had stunned everyone to their wits’ end.

As they were feeling lost and perplexed, another comment appeared on the bullet screen.

“It’s here again!”

Thanks to this reminder, many people discovered that Lin Yao had raised his right hand in the sky again. The energy mecha was moving in tandem with him. The two of them were raising their hands high, as if they were clutching something.

After a breath of time, the raised arm suddenly formed a fist and struck furiously downward.

Along with this action, a thick, huge golden thunderbolt struck down once again amid the loud rumbles of thunder.

Boom! Boom!

There were two consecutive deafening booms—the furious strike of the thunderbolt and the roar of an explosion. It was as if a missile had hit the ground.

Of course, the netizens could not believe that there had been a missile explosion. They were well aware that it was the sound of the thunderbolt hitting the ground.

This was precisely why they felt so shocked.

“Oh my god! What a powerful explosion sound. How strong is this thunderbolt…”

“It is not just strong. It can also strike far away. This thunderbolt was heard one kilometer away.”

“He can release a thunderbolt across one kilometer. What terrifying prowess… Ss!”

“Hey, aren’t you guys afraid that he might make a mistake? The distance is huge. What if he hurts someone else by mistake?”

“I don’t think so…”

No matter what they said, it did not affect Lin Yao. He only stopped after raising and waving his hand thrice consecutively. Then, he flapped the wings on his back and headed toward the place where the thunderbolt had landed.

A few seconds later, Lin Yao had arrived at the sky above the spot. Over there, a huge pit with a radius of a few meters that was burning with golden flames appeared on the ground. There were many onlookers watching beside the pit.

When they saw the empty pit, the comments on the bullet screen increased.

“He didn’t strike anything.”

“He shouldn’t strike randomly. What if he hits someone?”

“He didn’t hit humans. He hit flowers and plants…”

“That’s too much.”

These discussions didn’t affect Lin Yao one bit. However, his eyebrows were furrowed. He could sense that he had struck something. However, since he had started controlling the Lion King Armor, his thunderbolt had gotten more powerful. Both the monster’s body and soul had been reduced to nothing.

Feeling helpless, Lin Yao could only land from the sky. After searching for a long time in the pit, he finally found some blood stains that had not yet been burned.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Yao turned on his contact device and got in touch with Qi Qing, the military liaison officer. “The monster has been struck. Only its blood is left now. Will I still be rewarded?”

Upon hearing this, Qi Qing came back to her senses after feeling dazed for a long time.

“Of course you will. The genes in the blood can be used to determine the monster species.”

Lin Yao heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. However, he soon thought of something and asked anxiously, “What if the blood is also gone? See, I’ve been launching long-distance attacks. The device provided by the Adventurer Association is unable to film the attacks. Will I still get rewarded in that case?”

Qi Qing fell silent upon hearing this question, and so did the audience on the Internet. Some time later, several comments appeared on the bullet screen.

“Damn it! You’re amazing. We are all afraid that the monsters are too strong and have been racking our brains to decide how to kill them, yet you are worried that your attack is so powerful that it will destroy the monsters completely?”

“How I wish I was also worried about that.”

“Go to sleep now. You will have everything you want in your dreams.”

“Humph, what’s the big deal? I’m already convinced that it’s hard for him to complete a mission in one minute (he has wasted time looking for the remnants of the monsters after all).”

“He didn’t throw any punches. Sorry for this grand funeral, beast.”

In this turbulent situation, with beasts and freaks everywhere, many ordinary residents started panicking. When they saw Lin Yao’s live stream, they realized that humans were not that weak, and powerhouses were slaughtering monsters and helping mankind fight to survive. They also heaved a sigh of relief.

At the same time, the audience watching the live stream also respected the fighters who dared to venture out to battle. Therefore, they seldom made sarcastic remarks (the Internet Police would issue warnings to those who posted slanderous or disrespectful comments). Due to various reasons, Lin Yao’s live stream was very smooth.

Just as everyone was feeling relaxed, some people felt envious of the ninth satellite city.

“If he can attack the freaks from a distance of one kilometer, he is extremely strong. It would be great if such a person could protect our city.”

“Blue Flash… Wrong. We should call him the Gold Armor Giant God. His most powerful move is not his attacking ability. Haven’t you discovered something? When he arrived, he didn’t fly over to explore. He only closed and opened his eyes once and immediately found the monsters within a radius of a few kilometers. This searching speed and range… With him around, there won’t be any more hidden dangers within the city.”

“He is extremely powerful, he can launch long-range attacks, and he can even search for enemies on a large scale. Ah… How I wish he would come to our city.”

“Buddy, come to us. We have many beautiful ladies.”

“What are you thinking? Lin Yao belongs to Ninghai.”

“No, he’s the guardian angel of Tianhai City.”

[Ding. ****Sending 10 rockets to the live streamer.]

“I’m from the ninth satellite city. The monster killed by the live-streamer is near my community. My son… Thank you, live streamer. Thank you for avenging Xiaotian.”

“Ooh… Me too. Thank you for avenging my family!”

[Ding. ****Sending 10 rockets to the live streamer.]

[Ding. ****Sending 10 rockets to the live streamer.]

…

Gifts were sent via Lin Yao’s live stream consecutively. Furthermore, they were not just from one person. Many people from the ninth satellite city had been drawn to the live stream. There were also some rich people who sent Lin Yao countless gifts upon discovering that Lin Yao was eliminating the dangers in their city.

Meanwhile, the neighboring cities of the ninth satellite city were also sending countless gifts after seeing how powerful Lin Yao was. They all hoped that Lin Yao could make a trip to their city.

Obviously, in comparison to money, they wanted safety more. Thus, they valued Lin Yao’s ability to locate monsters very highly.

The successive gifts also made Qin Ya heave a sigh of relief. Upon seeing the situation online, she knew she had succeeded. Lin Yao had gained attention.

These monetary gifts were all trivialities. Most importantly, martial artists with strong talents would definitely be attracted by Lin Yao and join their team.

‘The adventure group will be formed soon.’

Qin Ya believed she had achieved her goal. However, she had underestimated the impact of this live stream.

A few minutes later, Qin Ya received a call from a stranger.

“Hello, who is this?”

“Hello, is this the Iron Solari Adventure Group? This is the administration office of the Binshan City Government.”

Iron Solari… This was the name of Lin Yao’s adventure group. They had used this instead of other nicer names because… all the good names had already been taken.

Even Iron Solari had almost been taken by another adventure group that had registered a day later. If they had chosen it, they wouldn’t even have gotten this name.

Of course, Qin Ya didn’t have the time to pay attention to the name. She was puzzled, as she had no clue why the city government was looking for her.

“Binshan City Government? May I know why you are looking for me?”

“Here’s the thing. We would like to invite you guys to Binshan City to complete missions. If you guys come over, as far as mission rewards are concerned, we will…”

After the phone conversation, Qin Ya felt somewhat dazed. She hadn’t expected the higher-ups of a city to extend a sincere invitation to Lin Yao.

Soon, she realized that she had underestimated Lin Yao. Subsequently, she received many phone calls from cities inviting Lin Yao over to eliminate beasts.

In fact, those cities were beginning to compete for Lin Yao.

This might seem exaggerated, but it was normal when one thought about it.

First of all, Lin Yao was already a gold warlord. Although he was still far from a king, which was the top of the league, he was already at a very high level.

In the past, a gold warlord used to be the guardian angel of a city.

Second, Lin Yao was also considered special amongst gold warlords. He might not be the strongest, but his Electromagnetic Induction and Good and Evil Distinguishment abilities enabled him to perceive things from an extremely long distance. This was very important.

Regardless of where they lived, everyone wanted to eliminate the beasts in their cities as soon as possible. Besides being a hidden threat, a long-standing beast would also cause panic amongst the residents in the area. If the situation was serious, it would also impact the production and operation of the city.

Furthermore, searching for hidden monsters required a large amount of manpower and resources.

In the past, they’d had no choice but to utilize their manpower and resources to eliminate the beasts.

However, Lin Yao’s appearance had widened their choices. They could spend more money to hire Lin Yao to eliminate these dangers, restore production, reassure the residents, as well as relieve some martial artists so they could handle other matters. This was a very worthwhile transaction. This was the reason so many people had invited him over.

Of course, Lin Yao was unaware that the city government had invited him. At the moment, he was heading toward the places the thunderbolts had struck.

As he was flying, a thought appeared in his mind repeatedly.

It is really necessary to form an adventure group. It’s hard to look for the remnants one by one after the killings. By having an adventure group, I could delegate this to my underlings. I’d just have to focus on attacking and killing.’

As the monsters had already been killed, Lin Yao, who felt safe, expressed his thoughts by muttering. Three minutes later, something Lin Yao had not expected happened.

“Ah Yao, I have already contacted the city government of the ninth satellite city. Henceforth, you’ll just need to look for beasts and attack them. They will send someone to check the completion status of your missions.”

“Ah, this is so much more convenient. Thank you, Yu’er.”

“He he, no biggie. It is my responsibility as your assistant to ease your troubles.”

Yan Yu’er was becoming more and more suitable for the role of his assistant.

As he was conversing with Yan Yu’er, Lin Yao headed to another target. Soon, the smile on his face disappeared and he became serious. He had arrived at his destination.

After closing his eyes and observing the area, Lin Yao lifted the brain domain limiter to accelerate his thinking speed. Then, he activated the thunder and lightning field, which could enable Lin Yao to transmit the power of thunder and lightning outside his body.

As he had merged with the golden cicada, which was strong mentally, Lin Yao’s mental strength had increased tremendously. The scope of the thunder and lightning field had also multiplied. He was able to transmit the powers to a distance of 1.2 kilometers from him.

With these super-long-distance attacks, in combination with the detection ability of Electromagnetic Induction, Lin Yao could kill the enemies remotely without approaching them.

“Heavenly Strike!”
