“Damn it! Send out all the armored soldiers! He must be caught!”

In the tavern, Needham Brown called out to his Al assistant, roaring with exhaustion.

Both his arms were broken, and he barely maintained his balance as he stumbled out of the tavern, getting in a car and heading straight for the security office of Freedom Town.

His personal equipment was there.

He had to report Harrison Clark’s actions to the military as soon as possible; only then would he be able to clear his name.

Needham Brown entered the office and quickly finished the report with relief.

He then placed both his hands under the Atom Therapy Device’s scanner and set the power output to the maximum.

The broken bones, tendons, and damaged nerves were quickly restored under the radiation treatment, but the pain caused by the high power output felt like his hands were in boiling oil.

Cold sweat dripped from Needham Brown’s forehead, but he did not scream. Instead, he continued to collect battlefield reports from the rear of the town through his personal information system, making battle plans and arrangements to try and stop Harrison Clark.

Unfortunately, all his efforts were in vain.

Harrison Clark knew the deployment of Freedom Town’s military force like the back of his hand, as well as the locations of the hidden weapons caches.

Combined with his terrifying special forces capabilities, he tore through the opposition like a bulldozer.

There were nearly twelve lines of defense at the inner base camp.

Under ideal conditions, these twelve lines could withstand an attack from more than fifty regular soldiers.

However, the outcome suggested that the top brass of the deserters either underestimated the combat power of the regular army or that Harrison Clark, the top-ranking supersoldier, was too formidable.

In just ten minutes, Harrison Clark had broken through the last line of defense. “No good! He’s about to reach our bio-experimentation lab! He’s a monster! We can’t aim at him!”

The team member’s roar came through Needham Brown’s communicator.

Already wearing his Azure Dragon Armor and rushing forward, Needham Brown quickly said, “If you can’t lock on to him visually, switch to automatic mode and let the Al lock on to him!”

“We can’t! Our Al support core is a watered-down version leaked by the military, we can’t lock onto an active military soldier!”

Needham Brown was almost ready to spit blood.

“Dammit, why haven’t they expelled this deserter from the military yet? Don’t worry, we’re almost there. The Al support system of the Azure Dragon Armor is sufficient, let’s see if we don’t bring him down!”

With that, the five-man Azure Dragon Armor team led by Needham Brown accelerated forward.

In thirty seconds, they would appear in front of Harrison Clark.

No matter how strong Harrison Clark was, Needham Brown was confident they could defeat him.

But at that moment, even more alarming news came from the battlefield through the communicator.

“He found our weapons storage and broke into it!”

Needham Brown was shocked, “How could he possibly know the entrance to the weapons storage?”

“He’s Harrison Clark, the king of S-rank soldiers! He’s the captain of the battleship’s guard, he has high clearance!”

Needham Brown was silent for a few seconds. “True enough. But it doesn’t matter, apart from the Azure Dragon Armor, there are only ordinary individual weapons in the weapons storage. They won’t help him. We can still take him down.”

After cutting off the communicator, Needham Brown urged the others and himself to speed up again.

As for the possibility of Harrison Clark wearing the Azure Dragon Armor?

Needham Brown never even considered it.

The operation of the Summit Armor was much simpler than the Azure Dragon Armor.

Though Harrison Clark’s Summit Armor control was unparalleled throughout history, it did not mean he could operate the Azure Dragon Armor.

The complexity of the two armors was vastly different –

Without systematic training, putting on the Azure Dragon Armor not only wouldn’t increase one’s strength, but it could even injure the wearer just by taking the first step.

The Azure Dragon Armor, an outdated equipment already abandoned by the government for decades, was used as the main equipment of the explorer faction only because they had no other choice.

Harrison Clark was a professional soldier; he had better options, so he couldn’t have learned to operate the Azure Dragon Armor.

Five seconds later, Harrison Clark, wearing a black, modified Azure Dragon Armor, broke through the door of the weapons storage and charged out.

Synchronously, a group of five Azure Dragon Armors, four white and one black, appeared in front of him.

Needham Brown’s teammate shouted, “This guy’s too bold! He doesn’t know when to give up, daring to wear Captain Brown’s spare armor!”

Needham Brown nodded, “He probably saw the unique color of the modified armor and thought the black Azure Dragon Armor was more powerful. Tsk, tsk, serves him right. This time, we can’t be blamed.”

Harrison Clark flexed his body slightly.

So far so good, it felt quite familiar to him.

This particular black Azure Dragon Armor – modified seemed to be the prototype, almost identical to the one Martha Owen had made for him long ago – very smooth to operate.

Harrison Clark said, “I suggest you step aside and let me take just one vial of gene serum. This way, whether I live or die, you can clear your names. I’ll naturally send a battle report to the military.”

Needham Brown shook his head, “If you don’t want to die, I also suggest you not make any reckless moves. Operating the Azure Dragon Armor is much more challenging than your Summit Armor. One wrong move and you’ll be torn to pieces.”

Harrison Clark shrugged, “Thank you for the warning, but… I don’t need it!”

With that, he forcefully stepped forward.

The Sonokinetic Vibration Blade drew a strange curve in midair while several propulsion devices at his back burst full force.

In that instant, he pulled the power up to 50G.

This was a technique he had created on his own, focusing on an all-out surprise attack.

This move, he called it Soaring Swallow Strike.

In a flash, he closed the gap of several dozen meters between him and Needham Brown, whose helmet now showed a dynamic capture.

He was astonished.

Harrison Clark’s movements, his proficiency in the Azure Dragon Armor, couldn’t possibly be his first time!

Every detail was perfected to the extreme.

He had brought out the performance of the spare armor to a height that Needham Brown had never imagined before.

But Needham Brown had no intention of surrendering, and he quickly raised his alloy shield to block the attack.

But the collision didn’t happen as he expected, and Harrison Clark changed direction at the last moment and moved to the other side even faster.

To maximize the turning acceleration, Harrison Clark even threw the alloy shield he was carrying.Two consecutive booming sounds were heard.

Needham Brown surveyed his surroundings with his shield.

His teammate on the left had been knocked down by the alloy shield, and the nuclear fusion energy pack on his chest had been knocked off, disconnecting the circuit.

His teammate on the right stood still, as Harrison Clark had already left his side.

Sparks splattered on this teammate’s Azure Dragon Armor, with the fractured circuitry falling off in patches.

In that instant, Harrison Clark struck him with at least ten slashes, completely destroying his armor’s transmission system.

Slap!

Unknowingly, Harrison Clark had the particle gun in his hand and hit the third Azure Dragon Armor’s control helmet.

The powerful particle voltage went straight down from the data line at the top of the helmet, burning the control circuitry of the third unit.

“No!”

Needham Brown screamed.

He looked back at the second unit on the left – the last teammate with any mobility – in extreme shock.

It turned out that at some point, a high-explosive plasma bomb had appeared in front of this teammate.

The violent explosion suddenly erupted, and the crackling red plasma engulfed this person with flames.

When the aftermath of the explosion dissipated, Needham Brown found that this teammate was not dead. The plasma had only burned through his chest armor, revealing the white skin of his chest cavity.

His chest hair had been scorched away, but he was otherwise unharmed.

It turned out that when Harrison Clark had thrown the shield earlier, he had also affixed the bomb to it, using the alloy shield to cover and eject it into that position during the collision.

This kind of combat intuition, keen judgment, and horrific on-the-spot battle plan making ability left Needham Brown dumbfounded.

His gaze was scattered, and he felt disoriented.

Needham Brown had never actually fought Harrison Clark in full armor, but his mentality had already collapsed.

His sword-wielding hand gradually lost strength, devoid of any courage to fight back.

Needham Brown desperately screamed in his heart, unwilling to surrender like a pitiful coward.

But the deepest logic in his heart completely controlled his body, preventing him from making any moves.

Because the logic told him that he must never confront Harrison Clark again.

Harrison Clark returned with his single-handed sword in front of Needham Brown.

“Are you sure you still want to stop me? You’re a little stronger than your teammates, but I can’t guarantee that I won’t spare your life.” Harrison Clark shrugged, “Controlling how much I hold back is ten times harder than fighting with all my might.”

Needham Brown collapsed to the ground in despair, pointing to the biological laboratory of Freedom Town evacuees in the distance, “You… you go. Thank you for showing me mercy.”

“You’re welcome.” Harrison Clark turned and left.

Needham Brown shouted from behind, “Why are you so strong?”

Without turning back, Harrison Clark casually waved his hand, “As I said before, a small error leads to a great distance. The gap between you and me is a thousand miles.”

Inside the biological laboratory, no one dared to stop him anymore, and the technicians even voluntarily brought out an alloy box.

Inside was a vial of Gene fluid.

Harrison Clark took the box, nonchalantly removed the Azure Dragon Armor, and jumped into the adjacent Life Support System.

He then sat up and asked the technician, “Please help me activate the Life Support mode.”

Still wearing the modified Azure Dragon Armor, Needham Brown didn’t rush in. He just shouted from outside the door, “Harrison Clark, don’t do it! You can’t die!”

Harrison Clark grinned, “Of course I won’t die.”

After saying that, he picked up the gene fluid syringe, jabbed it into the spinal position, and completed the injection.

Then he threw away the syringe, lay on his back, and the technicians scrambled to activate the Life Support System.

Needham Brown’s thoughts raced through his mind.

In the end, he only called up the smart assistant and said, “Report to the military that Harrison Clark has stolen a vial of gene fluid and disappeared.”

Three days later.

Harrison Clark woke up slowly in a daze.

The bed was soft, and the touch of the sheets felt excellent.

He opened his eyes and glanced at the spaceship standing not far away from the window.

This room must be located in one of the villas in Freedom Town’s headquarters office compound.

Sensing the movement in the room, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Needham Brown and several Freedom Town faction leaders entered the room.

There were men, women, young and old among the leaders.

They all looked at Harrison Clark with complicated expressions.

A technician in a white coat came out of a piece of equipment on the other side of the room.

“Captain Clark, congratulations. You have become the first human being to complete a second gene awakening. Your gene awakening percentage now stands at 31.77%. You are the first person in human history with a gene awakening level exceeding 31%.”

Harrison Clark nodded, “Thank you.”

Then he looked at Needham Brown again, “What did the military say?”

A middle-aged man in a suit spoke first, “We lied to the military. They don’t know you’re here. Do you want to stay?”

Harrison Clark thought to himself, finding it funny because there was no way they didn’t know.

They hadn’t taken any action so far, probably because he had survived the gene fluid technology transformation.

The military was reassessing him from being a deserter, and simply hadn’t made a decision yet.

After thinking about it, he said, “I’ll stay for a while and adapt before deciding. Sorry for the inconvenience. By the way, I can help train the Azure Dragon Armor operators when I’m free. I’m pretty good at this.”

Actually, he had his eye on something else.

The knowledge base of Freedom Town was very attractive to him.

While most of the knowledge acquired by Freedom Town was outdated to the World Government, it was more in line with Harrison Clark’s needs..
