Chapter 431: Chapter 17: Spirit Interference
From a distance, a large number of corpses lay strewn across the ravaged street, and creatures that resembled cockroaches happily gnawed at the bodies.
Before they could get closer, another wave of carpet bombing spread out, turning all the buildings within the range centered on the Giant Anchor into rubble.
The ground was charred black, and so were the bodies.
"There shouldn’t be many survivors from this. After this bombing, we’ll push forward imdiately, ensuring that these foreigners have no way back."
A soldier stood atop a tank shouting.
In reality, modern warfare rarely involves such close combat, but because it was in the city and people hadn’t been evacuated, they couldn’t conduct carpet bombing.
Moreover, the collapse of network communications led to a significant portion of their systems being paralyzed, with troops fighting blindly like headless flies.
After the bombardnt, they advanced, while Su Changxing observed the situation from the side.
Just as they approached the vicinity of the Giant Anchor, an unforeseen event occurred.
A giant over two ters tall, clad in armor, charged at them with a machete in hand. The enormous stomping noises shook the ground.
"Hahaha, die!"
His deford face was full of excitent, completely disregarding the military forces.
Intense gunfire erupted, but bullets bounced off the giant’s body without leaving any trace.
"Boom~"
A tank shell struck his body, only causing him to pause montarily, leaving so charred marks.
Monster.
This was an outright monster.
He stord into the crowd, swinging his blade to create a rain of blood, rampaging as if squashing ants.
[Steel Warrior: Tier Seven, Upper Rank, possessing unparalleled defensive capabilities, largely immune to physical damage.]
Steel Warrior?
Su Changxing wondered if he could kill the opponent, as this person was stronger than the previous warrior, or rather, more purely focused, his physical defense reaching the extre.
He burst from the rubble with a slide, reaching a position ten ters behind the giant, raised his gun targeting the back of the head, and resolutely pulled the trigger.
"Gunfire Judgnt" was triggered, the silver-white gun barrel turned red-hot, and the bullet that erged also turned red-hot.
"Concentrating" doubled all the damage he inflicted, while "Gunfire Judgnt" could double the revolver’s damage.
Thus, this shot was essentially magnified to forty-four tis its power.
Su Changxing wasn’t quite sure what the power of forty-four tis ant, but it should pierce through the giant’s brain.
"Boom~"
The giant’s head exploded with a spray of blood, half of his brain was blown off.
His body halted in place, slowly turning his head to look at Su Changxing: "You... despicable!"
Su Changxing gave him a helpless smile and pulled the trigger again, shattering his entire brain.
Without a brain, the giant collapsed, his life force rapidly draining, and he soon died completely.
[Stolen Steel Body: Possessing unparalleled defensive capabilities, within a certain limit, reduces eighty percent of physical damage but is more prone to other types of attack.]
"Even with 80% damage reduction, he was still killed by ?"
Su Changxing chuckled, casually stealing the giant’s main ability. His permanent Stealing Position still had three slots, so he decided to fill them first.
A soldier strode over and said: "Amazing, you killed him like that? Hello, I am Zhang Wenge, the commander of the 119th Division, 6th Regint."
He was utterly surprised, as such monstrous creatures that weren’t afraid of guns and shells were actually killed with just two shots by Su Changxing.
At this mont, Su Changxing was wearing a Clown Mask, dressed like a clown, and spoke in a hoarse voice: "Go on, I’m just an ordinary citizen, passing by."
Ordinary citizen?
As if you’re just a citizen, if you are an ordinary citizen, we might as well have citizens take the front line.
Zhang Wenge’s eyes opened wide, not knowing what to say. He figured Su Changxing must be from the Security Bureau since only they had people with extraordinary abilities.
He paused and asked: "How did you kill that monster just now?"
Su Changxing looked puzzled and said: "Didn’t you see? Just shoot him in the head."
"...Is that singing?"
Zhang Wenge intended to say sothing else, but glanced up, hearing lodious singing resonating from above. A white figure stood atop the Giant Anchor.
Su Changxing’s eyes widened, feeling a terrifying oppressive force coming straight at him.
What kind of existence was that?
Soon after, people around them were falling one by one, blood seeping from their facial features, and the jets flying in the sky tilted downward, crashing towards the ground.
This was a large-scale spiritual disturbance.
Su Changxing felt a series of stabs at the back of his head, but the impact wasn’t significant.
He had previously thought the best tactic against these fragile ordinary people was using large-scale spiritual attacks.
Almost instantly.
It beca utterly quiet around them, with no fierce gunfire and no explosions, only the remaining flas burning.
Zhang Wenge also fell in front of him, staring at the direction of the Giant Anchor, not dead yet, but unable to move his body.
Su Changxing sensed the gaze of the figure on the Giant Anchor sweeping over, his hair stood on end, and he picked up Zhang Wenge and ran away, intuitively knowing this was an unstoppable presence.
Luckily, he managed to escape smoothly, the entity apparently uninterested in pursuing him.
"W-What happened?"
Zhang Wenge muttered weakly on his back.
As he ran, Su Changxing replied: "We almost died, I rescued you."
Zhang Wenge imdiately asked: "What about the others, the rest of the regint?"
Su Changxing thought for a mont and said: "They’re probably all dead, I suppose?"
Zhang Wenge’s eyes widened suddenly, saying: "They’re all dead? We didn’t even do anything yet?"
Su Changxing calmly replied: "That’s just the reality, I’ll get you to the nearby hospital."
Upon arriving at the hospital, several doctors and nurses ca rushing out, having just been notified that the army was battling in the city.
"How is his condition?"
A doctor wearing a mask asked.
Maintaining his clownish smile, Su Changxing pointed to his head and said: "His brain is injured, you should pay special attention."
The doctor nodded, noticing the many bloodstains on Su Changxing, asked: "Are you injured?"
"No, I have to leave for sothing else now."
Su Changxing turned and walked out of the hospital.
Everything happened too suddenly, given the presence near the Giant Anchor, he dared not approach, opting to stay away.
Plus, the opponent’s goal wasn’t just destruction, but rather resource plundering and releasing that black fog.
He was sure that their primary aim was releasing that black fog—if both worlds connected, theirs would help take on half of the black fog.
