Global Superpower: I Control All Elements

Chapter 45 Fully Displaying One’s Capabilities

After finishing her work, Liu Yan returned to her dorm carrying a shopping bag, unaware of the excitement brewing in the local network of S-22 Defense Zone.

As a military department, combat training was essential, and the S-22 Defense Zone had hundreds of 3D combat pods connected to the same local network.

At this moment, in the combat section of the network, hundreds of genetic warriors and officers were watching a fierce battle unfold in a virtual arena.

On one side was a cute little girl around thirteen or fourteen years old—Chuchu. On the other side were three tall and muscular genetic warriors.

Astonishingly, Chuchu, wielding dual swords, was holding her ground against all three of them, forcing them into a retreat. The spectators were stunned.

“My god! This little girl is amazing!”

“Yeah! It’s only been half an hour, and her strength has already increased! This is insane!”

From a corner, a middle-aged man with a dignified demeanor observed Chuchu with great interest. This was Wang Jianlai, the deputy commander of the S-22 Defense Zone, a late-stage one-star Earth Elementalist. The more Wang Jianlai watched, the more he liked what he saw.

“This girl is definitely a combat genius!” Wang Jianlai said to the officers beside him.

“Do any of you know what department she’s from? Transfer her under my command! I want her!”

“Uh… Deputy Commander, we don’t know who she is…” The officers looked confused.

One officer guessed, “Sir, given her young age, she might not meet the department’s recruitment standards. Could she be a refugee?”

At this, the officers scoffed.

“Lieutenant Chen, have you lost your mind? How could a refugee have such combat skills?”

“Exactly! With her combat ability, she must have been trained by a prestigious family or large organization. There’s no way she’s a refugee.”

Wang Jianlai nodded, agreeing that the idea was far-fetched.

“Lieutenant Chen!”

“Yes, sir!”

“Find out which 3D combat pod this girl is using.”

Hearing this, the officers’ eyes lit up.

“Right! Once we figure out which pod she’s using, we’ll know which department she’s from!”

“Yes, sir! I’ll handle it right away!” Lieutenant Chen saluted and quickly logged off.

Meanwhile, the battle in the arena took a sudden turn. Chuchu’s figure flashed as her dual swords crisscrossed.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

In an instant, the heads of two genetic warriors were severed, and the third was cut in half at the waist.

“Wow! A triple kill!”

“So scary!”

The surrounding crowd erupted in exclamations.

“Excellent!” Wang Jianlai’s eyes gleamed with excitement.

This little girl was exactly his type—her combat power was unmatched even by many in the camp.

The officers exchanged looks of shock. They felt a mixture of awe and fear toward Chuchu. Under pure combat mode, none of them could reach her level of skill.

Soon, the bodies on the platform disappeared.

“Anyone else want to challenge me?” Chuchu called out to the crowd below.

She was becoming more and more addicted to combat, her entire being filled with excitement. After a full afternoon of continuous fighting, her combat skills had improved dramatically.

“Anyone?” Chuchu asked again, but no one dared to step forward. The last scene had everyone too shaken.

Just then, the three warriors Chuchu had just defeated reappeared on the platform.

In the virtual arena, participants could revive after death by re-entering the system. The three men looked at Chuchu with complicated expressions. It was embarrassing enough for them—tall, muscular men— to lose to a thirteen-year-old girl.

“Hey, little girl, how about we switch to a different mode?” One of the warriors, with a scar on his face, was clearly not willing to admit defeat. Known for his reputation among the soldiers, he wanted a rematch to save face.

“What mode?” Chuchu asked, unconcerned.

“Full real-strength mode!” The scarred warrior sneered. “Afraid you won’t dare?”

Hearing this, many in the crowd gave him odd looks. Scarface was playing dirty.

“This Scarface is still as shameless as ever,” Wang Jianlai chuckled.

“Yeah, in full real-strength mode, personal strength plays a huge role. It’s not just about combat skills anymore.”

“That little girl is only thirteen or fourteen—her strength can’t be that high. Scarface is clearly trying to exploit his advantage.”

The officers shook their heads at Scarface’s tactics.

“Afraid?” Scarface taunted. “If you’re scared, you can step down.”

Chuchu scoffed. “It’s not that I’m afraid. I’m just worried that in full real-strength mode, you’ll die even more miserably.”

Chuchu wasn’t bluffing—her combat power was around 200 points, far exceeding the average fourth-level warrior. In pure combat skill mode, her strength had been suppressed.

“Stop joking!” Scarface sneered. “Big talk won’t save you. Let’s start the match!”

“Let’s do it!”

The mode was quickly switched, and both disappeared from the platform.

“No way! That little girl really accepted the challenge?”

“Yeah, in the face of overwhelming strength, combat skills won’t make much of a difference. She’s bound to lose this time.”

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

“Beep! Reminder to all combatants: the arena has switched to full real-strength mode!”

With the announcement, Chuchu and Scarface reappeared on the platform, but their parameters were no longer the same. Scarface was confident that his strength was much higher than Chuchu’s, giving him a huge advantage.

“Little girl, you go first. I don’t want people saying I’m bullying you!” Scarface said, pretending to be generous.

The crowd snickered at his hypocrisy.

He was already bullying her by using his superior strength, but now he wanted to act magnanimous.

“Uncle, are you sure you want me to go first?” Chuchu smiled playfully. “If I go first, you might not even have a chance to react.”

Scarface rolled his eyes. “Little girl, you talk too much! Uncle’s standing right here. Go ahead!”

“All right!”

As soon as Chuchu finished speaking, she attacked.

Her 199 combat power exploded.

Combining her genius-level combat talent—

Swish!

Her figure became a blur.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Her dual swords flashed. Scarface didn’t even have time to react before he was cut into pieces, his head flying into the air. As his head spun midair, his consciousness was still intact.

“Damn it!” he muttered bitterly before his body vanished.

“Holy crap!”

The crowd was dumbfounded.
