Chapter 1665: Chapter 1665: Becoming Stronger
Everyone is progressing, every single day. Over ti, quantity evolves into quality.
Maybe in Gu Fan’s era, Gu Fan was an undefeated existence, but after traveling to the future, he faced people of this ti and found they had grown far stronger.
In the past, the Boss was no match for Gu Fan. But unfortunately, in this era, while Gu Fan’s strength remained frozen at its peak twenty years ago, the Boss had twenty years to evolve further.
“Damn it, this hurts so much!” Gu Fan couldn’t block the Boss’s attacks, and could only take the beating.
Leng Feng wanted to jump in to help, but Gu Fan stopped him—worried that an opponent he himself couldn’t deal with wouldn’t yield to Leng Feng either, and that Leng Feng might only get injured unnecessarily.
With a roar, the Boss once again charged toward Gu Fan, his brutish collision flinging Gu Fan backward.
Gu Fan glanced at the Resistance fighters taking off in a run but paid no mind to them; his head was filled more with Ning Qi’s words.
Gu Fan’s heart sank; this ant the gap between his power and that of the Demon King was astronomical. His earlier boasts about taking the Demon King down now seed almost laughable.
But now was not the ti for idle thoughts. The Boss landed a heavy punch, leaving Gu Fan dazed and agonized.
On the side, Leng Feng was frantic but knew he couldn’t help. Charging in recklessly would only burden Gu Fan further. All he could do was hope Gu Fan could endure alone.
Magic, magic, magic—Gu Xiaojin cast spells to rapidly heal Gu Fan’s injuries, enabling him to recover instantly each ti he took a hit, only to continue taking more.
After several exchanges, Gu Fan still couldn’t gain the upper hand. It was impossible to count how many tis his bones cracked and healed.
Enduring the pain, Gu Fan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and continued battling the Boss.
And it was not just Gu Fan struggling now—Zhuo Hang, too, found himself bitterly fighting against the rampaging Lord Xiong.
Fortunately, Zhuo Hang had made significant progress. In a one-on-one situation, he could still hold his own against Lord Xiong without requiring assistance.
Lin Yue stood off at a distance, observing Gu Fan’s grueling fight like a passive onlooker. His indifferent gaze betrayed no inclination to offer help.
This left Gu Xiaojin in a panic. She ran up to Lin Yue and pleaded urgently, “Uncle Lin Yue, please help my dad! He really can’t hold on any longer!”
Lin Yue replied, “Xiaojin, don’t worry. Your dad’s capabilities are sothing we’re fully aware of. He absolutely can endure. What we need to focus on right now is another issue.”
“Another issue?” Gu Xiaojin looked confused.
Lin Yue adopted a solemn expression and said, “The enemy plans to use the Boss’s strength to utterly annihilate us. The noise from our fight will inevitably attract attention, and once it does, the chances of this place being discovered by the enemy grow exponentially higher.”
“You’re right!” Everyone suddenly realized the gravity of the situation.
With a booming sound, the Boss sent Gu Fan flying again, roaring incessantly as he dashed forward, attacking anyone in sight.
The Resistance fighters fought back desperately, firing wildly with their weapons. Bullets tore through the air and riddled the Boss with countless wounds.
Yet it was all in vain—the Boss’s regenerative powers were astonishing, and he healed in monts before plunging into the crowd, beginning a rciless slaughter.
In a flash, the Resistance fighters scread in agony as heads, limbs, and blood flew everywhere. So were even brutally torn in two, the sight impossibly horrific.
Seeing the Boss’s unstoppable rampage, his overwhelming killing intent, terror spread among everyone. They scattered and fled, utterly lacking the courage to resist.
At this mont, all eyes turned hopefully toward Gu Fan, who had painfully picked himself back up. Only he had the power to stop the Boss.
But to everyone’s despair, Gu Fan’s expression was one of helplessness. He clearly wasn’t a match for the Boss—their repeated encounters made that abundantly clear.
What could be done? Were they to stand by as the Boss slaughtered further? If they didn’t suppress the Boss soon, the noise and chaos would surely alert the enemy. And once the enemy arrived, the Resistance—already shattered by the Boss—would face absolute annihilation, morale utterly crushed.
Patting the dust off his body, Gu Fan spoke calmly, “The X Legion will co, and this place will definitely be discovered. What we must do isn’t deal with the Boss or Lord Xiong—we must figure out how to retreat.”
Understanding this, Jie imdiately issued orders, initiating battle mode and opening a secure evacuation route.
The Resistance fighters sprang into action. Though they had long anticipated the day the enemy would co, and prepared psychologically for it, now that it was truly happening, they couldn’t help but panic.
Gu Fan stretched his stiff joints and charged at the Boss again. After just a few exchanges, he was knocked flying once more.
People grew anxious, as the noise and vibrations from the battle, combined with the Boss’s earth-shaking roars and energy emissions, were highly likely to be picked up by the enemy’s advanced instrunts.
“What’s ant to co will always co,” Gu Fan muttered, rubbing his injuries with a grim expression as he walked back.
Lin Yue agreed, believing the fight had already revealed their location. The X Legion was likely assembling en route.
“You all try to hold off the Boss and Lord Xiong. I’m going outside to scout,” Gu Fan said before turning to leave, leaving the others to deal with the ss.
Everyone wore bitter expressions—asking them to handle enemies that even Gu Fan couldn’t defeat was unrealistic.
Yet Lu Yi spotted a glimr of hope and began rallying morale. “Don’t lose heart, everyone! We need to lighten Gu Fan’s burden and let him focus on the overall battle strategy instead of the fighting itself.”
Her words struck a chord, and suddenly everyone understood—even if Gu Fan dealt with the Boss directly, he wouldn’t be able to concentrate on leading the entire fight and finding a way to turn the tide.
With this realization, spirits lifted once again as everyone regrouped. With Lin Yue at their core, they launched a renewed offensive against the Boss.
To compensate for the disparity in strength, Gu Fan provided several people with blue potions, even handing one to Lin Yue himself.
Lin Yue didn’t particularly like consuming the blue serum, but in an urgent situation like this, his personal preferences didn’t matter. He forced it down, imdiately feeling a surge of power racing through his body.
The others experienced the sa effect—even Lu Yi couldn’t help but swing her arms, brimming with confidence, as if she alone could take down the Boss.
Roaring wildly, the irrational Boss charged toward whoever crossed his path. His imnse footsteps shook the ground like a massive war tank barreling forward.
With no other option, everyone gritted their teeth and rushed in, hoping sheer numbers might barely provide so counterbalance.
But upon clashing, Lin Yue was instantly forced back, while the others fared even worse, flying helplessly in all directions.
