Chapter 100
Arc 2 – Chapter 100, Kick off the Campus Cinderella (60)
"It seems that our master of the Liu family hasn't experienced a decrease in intelligence due to women..." Xiao Ran suddenly relaxed and smiled rare, showing a few traces of sincerity. He waved his hand, and suddenly many other people appeared amidst the ruins of the commercial buildings. They instinctively raised their rifles, once again surrounding Liu Haoyu from the building above his head to the massive rock behind him. They were all Xiao Ran's people.
Not far away, as those guns were aimed at this side, many red lights had already landed on the heads of Liu Haoyu and Zhou Min. Even the members of the S5 squad beside them were not spared.
"This is the latest infrared sensing weapon. As long as they open fire, Liu Haoyu, your intelligent brain will be completely severed," Xiao Ran played with the pistol in his hand and looked at Liu Haoyu. "Even if you're not afraid of death, don't you care about the life and death of this girl beside you? As long as you give me the person, I will let you go!"
Although Xiao Ran was smiling as he spoke, his gloomy eyes were secretly fixed on Liu Haoyu. Zhou Min, who was held in Liu Haoyu's arms, listened to his calm and steady heartbeat and sighed inwardly. Although Liu Haoyu was mysterious in his previous life, she wasn't quite sure how mysterious he was. However, she had been to the 18th-floor experimental research base and seemed to have seen a room filled with weapons inside. But at that time, she only wanted to see that girl in her heart, so she didn't pay much attention.
But now, upon hearing Xiao Ran's brief explanation of this weapon, she suddenly recalled the internal turmoil that occurred in Xuliya in her previous life. It was the first time this type of weapon, as described by Xiao Ran, appeared. Its tremendous power drew nationwide attention. This gun didn't use bullets; it was completely controlled by infrared rays. Once it targeted a person and fired, there would be no sound whatsoever. Within a kilometre, any living object would be detected and instantly sliced apart.
However, that weapon didn't appear until twenty years later. How could Xiao Ran have it so early? What's going on? It seemed like everything was happening ahead of time.

As Liu Haoyu heard Xiao Ran's words, he suddenly couldn't help but let out a gentle laugh. He casually raised his wrist, and upon seeing his movement, Xiao Ran instinctively sensed danger. He squinted his eyes and paused for a moment in his subconscious gesture. He thought Liu Haoyu was about to make a move, but instead, Liu Haoyu lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms. He gently rested his head on Zhou Min's head and lightly rubbed her hair.
"Do you fear?" Liu Haoyu softly asked, his tone filled with unprecedented tenderness. Zhou Min lifted her head and looked at Liu Haoyu's calm and gentle face, as well as the sniper rifle controlled by infrared rays. In that moment, a fleeting thought flashed through Zhou Min's mind, almost slipping away before she could grasp it.
However, she trusted Liu Haoyu. When she died, Liu Haoyu was still alive. He was the absolute protagonist of this world, with a high destiny. Therefore, everyone would die, but only he would survive. Unless he chose to end his own life, no one could kill him.
Seeing Zhou Min's reaction, Liu Haoyu couldn't help but laugh. He tightly embraced Zhou Min in his arms, glanced at the S5 squad leader, and saw him repositioning his weapon behind his back. Then, he pressed something on his waist. The infrared rays that were originally aimed at their heads suddenly disappeared in an instant. Then, they witnessed the people around them, who were holding infrared guns, starting to self-destruct.
Like exploding watermelons, the explosions continued.

"What's going on?" Xiao Ran snapped back to reality just as he was about to order his men to open fire. He never expected the infrared rays to disappear, and his own people started self-destructing. As the explosions echoed around them, Liu Haoyu covered Zhou Min's ears, holding her tightly in his arms to shield her from the gruesome scene.
Xiao Ran looked at the sudden turn of events, his face turning pale in an instant.
"Xiao Ran, you still don't understand the person standing in front of you, and given the structure of your brain, I doubt you'll ever comprehend it unless I spell it out clearly. Your so-called secret weapon is nothing but trash that I stopped using years ago. And the infrared guns that you bought at a high price, secretly hiding it from me, happen to be my handiwork. Moreover, they are defective products that I had long discarded," Liu Haoyu sneered as he coldly looked at the shaken Xiao Ran.
With a gesture from Liu Haoyu, the captain of the S5 squad subtly adjusted the bulge at his waist. One of Xiao Ran's henchmen beside him didn't even have a chance to react. The heavy machine gun in his hand suddenly trembled, followed by the explosive sound of popping corn. The limb separated into multiple pieces, splattering a large amount of fresh blood, which inevitably landed on Xiao Ran's face.
However, when the blood was about to reach Liu Haoyu's face, the members of the S5 squad stood in front of him, blocking it.
Liu Haoyu pushed aside the person in front of him, looked at the pool of blood on the ground, and suddenly laughed. He liked the vividness and vibrancy of the crimson colour, finding it beautiful and lively.
"When I designed the infrared technology, the reason I didn't like it was because it killed too cleanly. Although I have some cleanliness preferences, I have a particular fondness for the feeling of blood splattering. It resembles the flames of the night, passionate and vibrant in its redness. But it couldn't satisfy my interests, so I changed the rhythm inside it, allowing it to kill in a beautiful and artistic manner. It can be clean and orderly, or it can burst forth with intensity, wild and captivating! Isn't that clever?" Liu Haoyu smiled as he watched the once whole person suddenly turn into scattered pieces of flesh, showing an expression of appreciation. "Wasn't that scene just beautiful? Blood flowing freely, flesh flying. Unrestrained art is the freedom to soar."
Upon hearing these words, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust rising within them. Their gazes towards Liu Haoyu became filled with even more fear. What a twisted mindset he had.
Xiao Ran, in particular, felt a chill in his heart because of Liu Haoyu's every move. It seemed like the first time he had encountered this side of Liu Haoyu. Cold sweat started to bead on Xiao Ran's back.
He had always believed that Liu Haoyu was only cold, ruthless, and cruel, albeit intelligent. But now it seemed that his thoughts were downright perverse. His intelligence had twisted into a bloodthirsty nature. From the moment he knew he would be in opposition to Liu Haoyu, he wasn't very afraid. However, at this moment, his rationality told him not to be afraid, but his body's response was much more honest.
His body started to tremble lightly. He had underestimated Liu Haoyu's danger, or rather, his twisted nature!
"Now, can we leave?" Liu Haoyu asked softly, his smile displaying an innocent elegance. However, everyone present couldn't help but shudder. Only the members of S5 squad remained unchanged, appearing calm as if they had seen it all before.
