Armor-Piercing Munition: Face Me, Carbon-Based Monster! Chapter 35 Son of Blood God

From the golf club to Phoenix Hotel, a straight distance of four kiloters, the eight-mber team took three hours.

This was already the limit of their speed. After all, burdened with heavy equipnt and navigating forest terrain, even if they wanted to go faster, there wasn’t much they could do.

There is ultimately a limit to human strength, and at this mont, Chen Jian began to understand the behavior of the Holy Bloods who used mutations to continuously enhance their physical fitness.

Unfortunately, such mutations occur during the genetic process, and even if one wished to embrace evolution, there would be no opportunity.

----Bah, what evolution!

chanical ascension is the ultimate path!

Chen Jian saw the tall building in the distance and confird it was their objective.

After a brief reconnaissance of the surrounding environnt, Chen Jian signaled He Shuo and Lei Jie to launch drones to start aerial reconnaissance of the surrounding areas.

The images stread to their smart goggles, and the group hidden in the grove imdiately saw the artificial traces on the hotel rooftop.

Not man-made objects from before the catastrophe, but crude structures with a distinctive Blood Skull style!

Broken limbs were hung as decorations on hastily assembled shacks, with skull symbols painted in blood on the walls, a headless, decayed corpse dangled from a steel fra, with its rotting flesh already picked clean to tatters.

"This building has already been occupied by Blood Skull."

Chen Jian quietly said:

"We need to establish an observation post on the rooftop, using drones to lead the way and moving up through the stairwell."

"Rember, don’t look back, and avoid blind firefights."

"Once we reach the top floor, clear from top to bottom, floor by floor."

"Understood!"

The other three team mbers imdiately responded, and Xu Lie asked:

"What should we do?"

"You keep an eye on the rear, ensure the back is secure."

Xu Lie frowned and said:

"We should lead the way, dealing with the Blood Skull’s Terror Demon, we’re better at close combat, our reaction speed is faster..."

"But you can’t ensure none get past you."

Chen Jian interrupted Xu Lie and continued:

"Missing even one will disrupt the team’s attack rhythm."

"If we’re stuck in the hallway and can’t move forward, we’re dead."

"Alright, that’s settled."

"He Shuo, lower the drone’s altitude, enter through the main entrance!"

"Understood!"

At his command, the four-man team imdiately moved.

The Holy Bloods followed closely behind, passing through the doors into the hotel’s interior.

The lighting conditions imdiately decreased, and Chen Jian lowered his thermal fusion night vision device, made a simple hand gesture, and, guided by the drones that had entered earlier, quickly advanced along the side staircase.

The four-mber team split into two firepower groups, each group spaced two ters apart, searching upwards on the left and right sides, with their barrels aid to cover every corner. If an enemy attacked from above, they would be instantly exposed to the muzzles of four automatic weapons and torn to shreds.

Their footsteps gradually beca more uniform from disorder as they advanced to the third floor, and Chen Jian lowered his voice and said:

"Xu Lie, watch the fire exit leading inside, if anything cos through, take it down imdiately!"

".....Understood."

Unconsciously, Xu Lie also adapted to Chen Jian’s team’s communication style, which made him realize for the first ti:

A truly coordinated team has every line of dialogue drilled over ti!

In comparison, the coordination he prided in his four-mber team seed like a joke in front of them...

All the way up, the hallway remained quiet.

Until the team advanced to the fifth floor, Chen Jian’s headset finally picked up the drone’s warning.

"Detected humanoid thermal source! Detected humanoid thermal source!"

"Prepare to engage!"

Chen Jian imdiately ordered, and right afterward, two Terror Demons lurking around the corner suddenly lunged at the front-most Chen Jian!

Perhaps within just tens of milliseconds beyond the average human reaction speed, Xu Lie had already turned to face the attacking direction, drawing his pistol and instinctively aiming at the enemy.

However, before he could take his next action, Chen Jian and Shen Yue’s guns already sounded.

"Bang! Bang Bang!"

"Bang! Bang Bang!"

The sound of two triple bursts fused together, making the six gunshots sound like only three.

Xu Lie was stunned.

He suddenly realized that the suggestion he made before entering the building was kind of laughable.

Reaction speed?

What reaction speed?

These chosen ones, these specters, did they really need to compete for reaction speed with the Terror Demons?

They had already established an extre information advantage; it’s not them shooting the Terror Demons, but the Terror Demons rushing onto their bullets!

Two bodies slumped to the ground twitching, and Chen Jian ordered again:

"Holy Bloods, finish them!"

"Understood!"

Xu Lie quickly responded, cutting off the Terror Demon’s head with a sharp dagger in his hand.

anwhile, the noise from above the staircase gradually increased.

The Terror Demon’s roars, chaotic footsteps, the enormous thud of falling objects...

These sounds echoed in the narrow hallway, and even Xu Lie couldn’t help but feel a bit of fear.

Yes, he definitely wouldn’t fear fighting with giant monsters.

But in such an environnt, the instinct ingrained in humans from birth is hard to overco!

What if they get trapped? What if they can’t escape?

If they died here, in the hands of those Terror Demons... wouldn’t that be the biggest joke?

He couldn’t help but widen his eyes, constantly scanning the corners that had been searched by the chosen ones ahead, afraid that a lurking monster might suddenly jump out.

He was like this, and the other Holy Bloods, without low-light vision, were even more on edge.

Everyone’s muscles were tensed, and adrenaline began to pump faster.

The intense sound of their heartbeats was almost audible to others, and Xu Lie, with his dry mouth, looked upward, catching sight of Chen Jian’s team firing coinstantaneously.

"Bang bang bang----"

The gunfire was continuous, flashing nonstop.

But unlike the "suppressive" barrage he had seen before, every shot from them downed a Terror Demon lunging from above.

They used the terrain and informational advantages to the limit, the stairwell corners becoming natural cover, and within a few seconds, more than a dozen Terror Demon soldiers were taken down there.

Still writhing and struggling, the chosen ones nimbly stepped over them, holding their weapons and continuing onward.

Through the chosen ones’ actions, Xu Lie felt an unprecedented, pure efficiency taken to the extre.

The efficiency of killing.

This sensation even made him feel a bit sick.

Looking at the corpses of Terror Demons on the ground, a terrifying thought erged in Xu Lie’s mind.

To the chosen ones, does life really hold any aning?

Even though the Terror Demons are monsters, such killing seed excessively cold.

Almost as if they weren’t killing, just simply... counting.

Xu Lie took a deep breath, and this ti, the chosen ones didn’t give the "finish them" order again.

Only after successfully reaching the next level did Chen Jian briefly say a few words.

"Watch out for grenades!"

Following this, a DSY151 thermobaric grenade was tossed downward by him, landing in the stairwell corner, amidst the pile of already fallen Terror Demons.

"Boom!"

The massive explosion roared through with trendous pressure difference, and when Xu Lie turned back in shock, no Terror Demons’ corpses could be seen.

....

Five minutes later, the team reached the rooftop.

After taking down the last Terror Demon soldier, Chen Jian switched to a third magazine.

The bullet consumption was far less than expected, leaving him quite satisfied.

He looked at Xu Lie standing aside and said:

"Now, it’s your turn to clear the scene."

Xu Lie nodded chanically, and after a few seconds of silence, suddenly spoke:

"Chosen ones..."

"Do you know that, at least in the matter of killing..."

"You guys are more like the Sons of Blood God than those Blood Skulls."
