Chapter 106 Railgun!
Chapter 106 Railgun!
Inside the barrier.
The red Genosect was poised to fire, and to outsiders it appeared he was about to blast Zhang Zengsong to ashes.
And indeed, the power of that attack was enough to annihilate all Pokémon below the Champion level! Genesect thought that if the man opposite him dodged, he would quickly snatch the petri dish and run away.
If you don't dodge, then just blast them to ashes.
No one noticed that the petri dish was shaking violently, as if it had sensed something!
call out!
Seeing that Zhang Zengsong had no intention of dodging, Genesect chose to bombard him directly. There were too many things beyond his calculations, and the barrier wouldn't last long. Zhang Zengsong was just one person, so bombarding him was no big deal.
After all, he was the one who created Genesect first, so we have the right to argue our case.
One human being alone is not enough to make them stand against humanity, but if we include those innocent ones, the situation changes, and it's enough to make humanity start a war.
Zhang Zengsong made a decision and used all the strength he had in his life to throw the petri dish away.
He chose to face Genosect's bombardment head-on because if he dodged, he couldn't bring the petri dish with him, since he wasn't strong enough. But if he dodged, he didn't dare gamble that the enemy could stop him.
So he chose the method that would guarantee his old friend's survival.
"Goodbye, old friend. Life without you is hard. I hope you won't feel bored without me." Zhang Zengsong felt at peace. For him, his goal had been achieved, and it didn't matter whether he lived or died.
But a strange sadness arose as the light cannon approached. Why? He didn't understand. He had already succeeded, so why was he sad? Was it because he hadn't had a chance to say goodbye to his old friend?
Bong!!
The petri dish suddenly shattered! Without the slightest hesitation, Genesect, adorned with yellow patterns, met the high-tech light cannon with its own.
He had been awake for a while and had been observing. There were many things in his mind that he couldn't remember. When Zhang Zengsong chose to sacrifice his life, he finally remembered them. So he used all his strength to break free from the petri dish, just to protect the person in front of him.
Incredibly, despite only being at the King-level, he was locked in a stalemate with the Champion-level attack, as an invisible force compelled him to use power that wasn't originally his own.
The power called protection.
"Relax! This time! I will protect you again!" The patterned Genesect exerted force beyond its limit, generating a huge recoil that forced it to grip the ground with both hands.
The attack stopped; it was the red Genesect that stopped. He absorbed the remaining energy with his body and wasn't seriously injured, but he didn't move at this moment.
"Shovel... Armor?" Zhang Zengsong heard a voice that was different from the one he remembered, but he knew that the man had returned.
He staggered toward it, but his vision kept blurring, as if something was covering his eyes.
Tears—the man who wasn't even afraid of death was shedding tears at this moment.
He even tripped over a stone, as if he had returned to his most helpless moment, that dark and hopeless time, that time when he still had something to live for, that time when he was weak, helpless, in pain but full of hope for survival.
The metal shoulders supported him, and Zhang Zengsong could feel that his heart had reconnected with something.
"Song, I'm back. I can protect you again." The stag beetle hugged him tightly, just like when it shielded Zhang Zengsong from a fatal blow with its body, as if afraid of losing him again.
Zhang Zengsong lowered his head, choking back tears. He cried. How long had it been since he last cried? The last time he cried was ten years ago, on the day he lost the most important thing in his life.
"Song, you're protecting me too. I'm so happy now, so you can't cry like a little kid anymore." The stag beetle said to his friend like a child comforting him. His age had been frozen ten years ago, and now he was just like a child.
Zhang Zengsong calmed himself down, wiped away his tears, exhaled heavily, and stood up again. His eyes were now filled with determination, and the gloom from before had faded: "Ah, yes, I'm not a child anymore."
He took out a yellow crystal from his watch. It was a Z-pure crystal with electrical properties, covered with cracks as if it were about to break open. It was something Zhang Zengsong had kept for ten years.
"Do you still remember our strongest move?" Zhang Zengsong smiled gently. The mad Zhang Zengsong was gone; now, he was the boy he once was.
"Oh! Come on! I'm ready!" the stag beetle responded, landing on all fours, its cannon barrel unfolding and extending forward from its head, transforming the entire elf into a giant cannon!
Zhang Zengsong took out the Lightning cassette tape from the lining. He had only made this one to commemorate the past of the stag beetle, but he didn't expect to need it so soon.
Zhang Zengsong inserted the cassette into the slot on the shovel's cannon. The shovel's eyes changed from red to yellow, and the patterns on its body glowed. Energy flowed from its body along the patterns into the cannon barrel.
Zhang Zengsong took a deep breath, grasped the Z-Crystal in his palm, and raised it above his head! Energy overflowed! Even Zhang Zengsong's hair was dyed gold! Infinite energy flowed from Zhang Zengsong into the stag beetle's body.
Stag Beetle wants to protect its trainer, and Zhang Zengsong also wants to protect Stag Beetle; they are both afraid of losing it again.
Intense emotions! The energy of the pure crystal no longer needs guidance! It bursts forth from the cracks in the pure crystal!
In the Red Genesis's combat power calculation program, the power of this move was off the charts! Without the slightest hesitation, he unleashed his high-tech light cannon!
Zhang Zengsong raised his hand forward! He placed it above the muzzle of the stag beetle! "Z-Move! Railgun!"
Ding!
The sound of Zhang Zengsong flicking the pure crystal.
The pure crystal flew straight into the air! Then it landed right in the center of the cannon barrel! The shovel armor's tools also blasted out! The pure crystal acted like an amplifier! Amplifying the light passing through it to an unbelievable degree! Finally, the pure crystal shattered completely!
A massive beam of light shot directly at the red Genesect. He quickly unleashed his high-tech light cannon, attempting to scatter the stag beetle's attack!
However, his high-tech light cannon didn't even last a second against such an attack! He was hit squarely! He was sent flying backward! Slamming hard against the barrier!
“It’s over.” Zhang Zengsong didn’t move, while Qiaojia picked something up from the ground.
Those were fragments of pure crystal that had already turned gray.
"Song, this is broken." The stag beetle's tone was regretful. He handed the broken pieces to Zhang Zengsong.
Zhang Zengsong took it, sighed, shook his head and said, "Consider it a farewell to the past."
His tone was one of relief, the gold in his hair faded, and the shards in his hands turned to dust, swept away by the oncoming wind, like the tragic past, disappearing into the horizon.
Qingshan Mental Hospital.
The dean then swiped across the cover of the notebook, revealing a hidden compartment containing only one document with Zhang Zengsong's photo pasted on it. The dean calmly ticked it off, then closed the notebook and walked to the far end of the first floor.
