First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!-Chapter 715: You Gutless Thing, Dodge! Why Aren’t You Dodging Now!?

......

Inside the Lingji Creation Pavilion of the Shengda Armory.

Jiang Sheng had just stepped in.

The young man responsible for reception walked up.

"Hello, are you here to purchase weapons and artifacts, or to custom order weapons and artifacts?"

Jiang Sheng replied, "I'm here to pick up a custom order."

"Alright, please show me your reservation code. Please wait a moment, I'll go fetch your custom order."

"Reservation code?"

Jiang Sheng was momentarily stunned.

It was his first time visiting the Lingji Creation Pavilion last time. Before, he always made these mechanical parts himself.

The reason he needed a custom order last time was because he was in a hurry and had to go out of town.

After going, he didn't have much free time on his hands either.

Hearing that the Lingji Creation Pavilion had good craftsmanship, he gave them the detailed specifications of the mechanical parts, asking them to help forge them to save some unnecessary time.

He remembered at the time, the person here asked him to leave contact information so they could send him a reservation code for pickup.

As a member of the Wuwang organization, his whereabouts and contact information absolutely had to be kept confidential.

So he didn't give it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Sheng said, "I don't have a reservation code, but I had an appointment back then. It was another clerk who received me, tall and thin with short hair, and a mole on his face."

The clerk nodded, his face full of a professional smile, without a shred of sincerity. After all, as a wage earner, few can genuinely smile.

Being able to provide service with a smile was already considered good professional conduct on his part.

"Oh~ I think I know who you're talking about, but he has resigned now. Do you have the payment receipt from back then? A payment receipt will work too."

"Pay......"

Jiang Sheng was getting annoyed.

He rummaged around on his person: "No."

The clerk was somewhat helpless: "Sorry, sir. You have no reservation code, no payment receipt, this... I don't know what you ordered, and I also don't dare to retrieve it for you."

"Why don't you dare? I ordered mechanical parts. Just get them for me, isn't that fine?"

"Sir, please don't get agitated. Listen to me. With no proof of any kind, if I retrieve them for you, and if something goes wrong, like it's not the right item, or something else happens, I can't afford to compensate..."

This sentence completely infuriated Jiang Sheng: "What do you mean 'something goes wrong'? Are you implying I would take someone else's stuff!?"

The clerk waved his hands: "No, no, sir, it's not that. It's our shop's rules and requirements. I'm not questioning that you would take others' things. I'm just a wage earner, I have to follow the regulations."

Jiang Sheng, who was already having a rough time, was now even more irritated: "So you're saying I paid the money, but now I can't take my things."

As his Spiritual Energy leaked out, his oppressive aura was exposed.

The clerk in charge of reception hurriedly said, "Sir, please don't be impatient. Think about it, which master craftsman did you book the order with? I'll go confirm it for you."

As he said this, he kept glancing towards the wall.

On it were photos and information of every master craftsman in the Lingji Creation Pavilion.

As long as Jiang Sheng named any one.

He could go check the archived records and accounts, cross-reference the time and personal information.

It was like an ordinary person going to a bank to withdraw money for an elderly family member.

The bank looks at the bank card, or passbook, confirms the password, and says the withdrawal needs the account holder's signature.

At this point, if the account holder isn't present, you take the signature slip, go aside and sign it yourself.

After all, the rule is there.

But Jiang Sheng wouldn't.

He wanted to be stubborn: "How should I know which craftsman? I order something, do I also need to ask his name!?"

Well.

Things had come to this point.

Jiang Sheng didn't get it, and the clerk truly had no way. He couldn't openly violate the rules, after all, he was just a wage earner.

He could only say softly, "Then I'm sorry, sir, I'm really very sorry. Without these things, I can't retrieve it for you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Jiang Sheng, who was already in a foul mood and couldn't find a place to vent his anger, fully unleashed his aura.

"GET LOST!!!"

His hand formed an orchid-shaped finger and thrust forward.

Just as it was about to strike the clerk's chest.

A voice rang out: "Orchid Finger!!! It's him!!!!"

A hand of extremely beautiful bone structure, slender and powerful, entwined with strands of destructive black energy, seemed to reach out from hell, gripping Jiang Sheng's wrist in an instant, freezing his attack less than an inch away from the clerk's chest.

A terrifying grip strength, enough to crush artifacts.

It directly crushed Jiang Sheng's wrist while violently yanking him off balance.

Lu Ding raised his hand and followed through upward, grabbing Jiang Sheng by the collar.

Twisting his body, power generated from his waist, beneath his well-fitted shirt, his abs, serratus anterior, and other muscles became more defined with ridges as he exerted force, flooding with blood in an instant, providing immense strength capable of uprooting mountains.

Grab the collar, shoulder throw!!!

BAM!!!!

The entire sequence of movements flowed seamlessly.

The terrifying force, the incredible speed, Jiang Sheng hadn't even managed to react before he was slammed heavily onto the ground, shaking the surrounding buildings, causing the ground to crack, with fissures spreading to unfathomable depths.

A sweet taste rose in Jiang Sheng's throat.

Before he could spit out the blood.

Lu Ding punched down, directly hitting his mouth.

Muted, no spitting allowed!!!

Crack, crack........

Teeth, alveolar bone, gums, shattered!!!!

Pain struck.

The interval was mere milliseconds.

A storm-like onslaught of attacks poured down.

Lu Ding alternated his fists, riding on top throwing punches, his arms moving so fast they left afterimages.

Bam bam bam bam bam bam bam........

Jiang Sheng raised his arms to block, his mind a whirl of thoughts, his arms continuously emitting sounds of shattering.

It must be known, these arms of his were forged from secret materials. Whether in hardness or other special effects, they far surpassed ordinary artifacts.

His wrist being crushed, he could barely understand, because the wrist has joints and connections, and for the flexibility of his palm and fingers, he couldn't use overly hard materials there either.

But his arms used the hardest materials, hidden beneath skin and flesh, usable as shields.

How could they possibly make such shattering sounds when struck by someone's flesh-and-blood fists?

"Just who the hell are you!!!!!!?"

Jiang Sheng roared indistinctly amidst his struggle.

A smile appeared on Lu Ding's face, black energy seeped from the corner of his mouth, and explosive rumbles erupted from within his body.

Hum!!!!

"You gutless thing, dodge! Why aren't you dodging now!? You didn't dare to give your location, so I came to find you myself!!!!"

Raising his arm, he threw a punch, Mountain-Shaking Earth-Quaking!!

The arms Jiang Sheng used to block instantly snapped.

The terrifying force of Lu Ding's punch didn't diminish. After breaking his arms, it directly smashed into his abdomen, splattering flesh and blood.

Jiang Sheng suffered a heavy blow, but the phrase 'gutless thing' made him instantly forget the pain, his eyes widening abruptly, filled with burning rage and resentment.

"It's you!!!!?"

In that instant, the flesh on his body churned, his bones shifted and folded, like a flesh-and-technology version of a Transformer. The collapsed wound on his face extended a cannon barrel, firing a blast point-blank at Lu Ding!!!

BOOM!!!!
