Bang!" With a flash, Huang Wen dodged Punchstone's fist, but the powerful blow directly smashed through the adjacent wall, sending flying debris and dust that made Huang Wen look a bit disheveled.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Wall after wall was consecutively smashed through. Fortunately, there were no other rooms around the conference room. The Golen Gang clerks, hearing the commotion, dared not approach in the slightest. They all knew or had heard of Punchstone's strength, and they feared being caught in the crossfire if they got too close.
"If even a strength-type mutant is this hard to deal with, what if I really encounter someone like the Hulk or Abomination? Wouldn't I not even have a chance to escape?" A thought flashed through Huang Wen's mind, and then he kicked Punchstone's ankle, who hadn't had time to retract his fist.
The immense force, combined with Punchstone's already unstable center of gravity after swinging his fist, caused Punchstone's body to instantly crash heavily to the ground.
However, Punchstone's reaction wasn't slow. One hand couldn't be retracted, but he still had the other. Relying on his immense strength, he propped himself up, just about to exert force and get to his feet.
At this moment, Huang Wen suddenly spun around, moving away from Punchstone's front, then instantly unified his waist and horse stance, pressing down on Punchstone's back. He unleashed a flurry of "Sun-character" punches, aiming directly at Punchstone's back of the neck.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Punchstone, who was about to get up, was subjected to a series of rapid, heavy blows. Even with Punchstone's resilience, he couldn't lift his head for a moment. He was even dazed and disoriented, and his thoughts slowed down.
The back of Punchstone's neck was not covered in rock. Although there was a thin layer of stony skin, it wasn't enough to counteract the force of Huang Wen's continuous "Sun-character" punches.
With a "bang!" a gunshot rang out. The bullet was blocked by the tuxedo, but it caused Huang Wen's body to momentarily freeze. Then, he felt a surge of great force from beneath him, and he was sent flying.
"You're looking for death!" The enraged Punchstone stood up. Ever since he was subdued by Golen, he had never been so humiliated. The endless fury made the stony skin on Punchstone's body even more pronounced.
One could vaguely see that the stony skin was beginning to condense into rock-like formations. Perhaps Punchstone's ultimate mutant ability would be similar to the Thing from the Fantastic Four, but this rock-man was silver-gray, more like the rock-man from Thor: Ragnarok.
It was fortunate that it was silver-gray; if it had been coral reef skin, Huang Wen probably would have thrown up on the spot.
"Do you think you're the Hulk, getting stronger the angrier you get!" Huang Wen grumbled, a little annoyed, at the sight of Punchstone growing stronger again. He hadn't expected the first mutant he encountered to be so troublesome.
Fortunately, although Punchstone's abilities were similar to the Thing from the Fantastic Four, his strength hadn't reached that terrifying level, otherwise Huang Wen might have really been in trouble.
"Since you're looking for death first, I'll deal with you first!" Huang Wen turned his head to look at Golen and the others. It was Golen who had fired the shot. He had originally thought that a sneak attack on Huang Wen would be a fatal shot, but he hadn't expected the tuxedo to be even smarter than he imagined.
"Roar!" Rocks gradually appeared on Punchstone's body, and he was starting to lose control. In his eyes, there was only Huang Wen, his enemy. He had only one thought left: to kill Huang Wen!
"Whoosh!" But Huang Wen had no intention of dealing with Punchstone. Huang Wen rushed towards Golen, scaring Golen into firing his gun in a hurry.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Gunshots rang out one after another, but they completely failed to stop Huang Wen's advance. Huang Wen even instinctively dodged, avoiding three of the six bullets, and charged towards Golen at an even faster speed.
Everything happened in an instant. Just as Golen's pistol ran out of bullets, Huang Wen had already arrived in front of him.
"Die!" A ruthless glint flashed in Golen's eyes.
A short sword dropped from his sleeve, and he fiercely stabbed it towards Huang Wen's chest.
However, not to mention that the tuxedo could block bullets, let alone a mere short sword? Moreover, Golen was just an ordinary person; how could his reaction and speed compare to Huang Wen's?
With a "crack!", Golen's arm was directly broken by Huang Wen, and the short sword in his hand made a 180-degree turn, slashing his own neck.
Huang Wen was originally preparing to continue his attack and kill the other Golen Gang members hiding nearby, but a sudden sense of danger arose, causing Huang Wen to instinctively roll on the ground and dodge.
With a "boom!" a loud noise, Punchstone, who had transformed into a small rock-man, slammed his fist onto the ground. The ground directly fractured, and the force of the punch even severely injured two Golen Gang members along with the dying Golen.
"Hmm? Lost control?" Huang Wen raised an eyebrow, his eyes lit up, and he used the long-lost Lion's Roar skill. "Big guy, I'm over here, come and get me!"
The power of the Lion's Roar was not to be underestimated. As Huang Wen's words fell, Punchstone abruptly turned his head to look at Huang Wen. Even though Huang Wen could no longer see Punchstone's eyes amidst the rocks covering his face, Punchstone still locked onto Huang Wen and charged towards him.
However, while Punchstone's strength had increased by an entire level, his speed had not only not improved but had been significantly weakened.
Huang Wen's body flickered, and he deliberately ran near the Golen Gang executives. In their terrified eyes, Punchstone threw a punch. Huang Wen dodged, and then they were reduced to a bloody mess.
Soon, only Huang Wen and Punchstone remained in the entire conference room. The conference room was also in ruins. If this had been a high-rise building, it would probably have collapsed, but since it was underground, the stability of the building still had some guarantee.
The Golen Gang clerks outside heard the commotion in the conference room but had no courage to come and see. Furthermore, since the Golen Gang's middle and high-ranking members were all in the conference room, they didn't even know who to contact about this matter. They couldn't possibly call the police, could they?
You might be surprised, but some Golen Gang clerks eventually couldn't help but call the police. However, since it was late at night, and given the American police's notorious tardiness, they wouldn't be able to arrive for a while.
"He's really tough, completely impenetrable!" Huang Wen shook his slightly aching fist. There were already faint traces of blood on it, not Punchstone's blood, of course, but Huang Wen's own blood. It was uncertain whether a mutant like Punchstone would even bleed.
"Roar!" Punchstone let out another roar of anger. His consciousness was completely chaotic at this point; he only wanted to kill Huang Wen.
"What should I do? I can't just leave. What if he regains his senses and recognizes me…" Huang Wen dodged Punchstone's punch and began to ponder a solution.
Suddenly, Huang Wen's eyes lit up!
