The roar of the bullets was completely cut off, disappearing entirely.
Moreover, it never sounded again.
Even the bullets capable of long-distance attacks gradually beca sporadic and eventually went silent.
"Are the bullets all used up? Or is it a strategy?"
Just a few kiloters away in an underground shelter, the man kept watching the battlefield videos sent privately by a few subordinates on the system panel, deep in thought.
At the start of the battle, his subordinates had taken videos and photos from various directions using the system’s cara functions and sent them to him in real ti.
In the video, he saw quite a shocking scene.
Initially, Lin Yue drove a truck and suddenly rushed out from the shelter. Then, when surrounded, he imdiately used a flying tool that the man hadn’t seen before to break through alone and easily defeated the giant creature brought by the Lizardman.
Next, before the Lizardman could react, Lin Yue flew back to the shelter, as if those Lizardn didn’t exist at all.
Afterwards, the Lizardn almost all deployed, surrounding the shelter, and as they began the siege, machine gun turrets on the previously unseen thick city walls started blessing these foolish creatures.
This was within his expectations.
The Lizardn retreated, the Storm Flying Lizards encircled from the air, and those nurous monsters brought from the Secret Realm by the Lizardn charged forward to draw the bullets, also as part of their plan.
And just now, the machine gun turrets finally ran out of bullets and went silent. Then, Lin Yue’s dragons rushed out to engage in lee with the monsters...
It seed like everything was progressing as they had planned.
But the man always felt that sothing about this situation gave him an indescribable sense of unease.
Old Sun didn’t clos the system panel as he did after watching for a while: "A strategy? It’s possible, that kid is too strange, no pushover, it’s never a bad idea to be cautious, but too much caution isn’t good either, is it?"
"Things are progressing too smoothly," he said.
"Smooth isn’t necessarily a bad thing, is it? When the giant creature and the big centipede charge, old man here thinks even if Lin Yue were a superhuman, he wouldn’t be able to escape. His flying device isn’t that fast, not easy to run." Old Sun lit a cigarette and took a deep puff. "Besides, it doesn’t matter if he runs, as long as the shelter is there. Once we have those machine gun turrets, who in this Otherworld can stop us?"
"Have you forgotten our agreent? Lin Yue must be captured. If he escapes, it’s not just ; the Lizardn won’t let it go lightly either," the man turned and glanced at Old Sun, emphasizing it again.
"Hmph, those stubborn lizard bastards, so obsessed over a few Gems, not even knowing if Lin Yue really has them. It’s truly odd. And you, I don’t understand why you’re so hung up on catching Lin Yue alive, when killing him would be easier!"
Old Sun now regretted having disclosed to this man in front of him that he had been to this Otherworld before.
The condition at the ti was for this bastard Gao to tell him why he had to team up with the Lizardn to capture Lin Yue.
But after he shared his own story, this bastard only revealed so information about the Gems, not the answer he wanted!
And the idea that "capturing Lin Yue would be tantamount to capturing the whole world" was also perplexing.
The most valuable things Lin Yue had were the shelter and those unknown quantities of resources, weren’t they?
Killing or banishing Lin Yue would both yield them.
Even those nonsensical broken Gems would naturally be no problem.
"I’ve said before, it’s a fair exchange. I’ve traded the information you gave with you on equal terms; in fact, you’ve gained more, haven’t you?"
"Ha, indeed we’ve gained more. Anyway, at that ti, we agreed, old man, I lent you so many people. You provide the information and persuade those stinking Lizardn to join; each to their own needs. You want Lin Yue; I want other things; those Lizardn want Gems."
Old Sun didn’t press the man in front of him any longer about the insistence on capturing Lin Yue alive.
It wasn’t aningful.
All he needed was to receive Lin Yue’s shelter and all his resources in the end.
As for him not being the first to co to this Otherworld, it was no longer a secret.
After all, he wasn’t the only one in this world.
The man said nothing more to Old Sun but looked at the ti again.
The battle had been going for over an hour now.
How would the final battle develop next?
There’s no need to worry that Lin Yue would abandon the dragons and Lizardn to flee. That much was certain; that so-called jet-propelled flying device could only be used during combat.
Besides, those dragons inside seed to have so issues.
The one that could fly wasn’t used, and instead, Lin Yue moved with the flying device. The larger one appeared to have issues with walking, judging from the video.
These were all factors that kept Lin Yue from escaping easily.
Things were progressing too smoothly.
It seed the final outco would indeed be according to their plan: as the giant creature and the big centipede approached the city walls, the hidden beggars would join the Lizardn to form a massive army. Then, after the giant creature breached the wall, they would surge in like a tide.
And then...
Occupy the shelter, capture Lin Yue, and seize the Gems!
But was the situation a bit too easy?
Was Lin Yue really that weak?
The more he thought, the more sothing felt off.
"Alright, stop thinking, old man. I think we should start preparing to reap our rewards. If those beggars manage to storm inside the walls first, my share won’t be secure!"
Old Sun had already smoked his cigarette down to the butt. He tossed it to the ground and stomped it out hard with his foot!
The man wanted to say sothing, but eventually, he just nodded slowly.
The situation had reached this point; the arrow was already nocked and had to be released.
Another ten minutes had passed, and Lin Yue’s machine gun turrets seed to have completely run out of bullets.
After all, the Lizardn had dispatched so many creatures, and even a bugged machine gun turret has limited bullets.
Furthermore, Xing Lingfeng had previously assured that no more nitrocellulose would be provided to Lin Yue, regardless of any trade offers from the other side.
Without bullets, Lin Yue, relying solely on those dragons and Lizardn...
Would face seven thousand Lizardn, tens of thousands of monsters, nearly twenty thousand beggars, and their manpower with superior equipnt...
How long could he hold?
In this Otherworld without weapons of massive destruction.
Who could resist such an overwhelmingly massive force?
Nobody.
Not even Lin Yue!
Even the world-ranked number one Lin Yue had no chance!
"All those beggars mobilize and form a phalanx with the Lizardn!"
The man finally gave the order.
And from this mont on, Lin Yue would ultimately be overwheld by their terrifying numbers!
