Chapter 641 - 241 Day One, Stick to the Plan_2
Ren Zhong was caught in a burst with nowhere to hide.
In just an instant, his armor’s energy shield suffered over 70% damage, with the ray nearly burning through the biochemical protective suit inside his armor.
It was a ray cannon with an Energy Level Index exceeding 250,000 kilowatts!
Last time, Ren Zhong didn’t see this thing, as the video recorded showed a Suicide Squad that perished at the hands of a Level Six Ruined Beast lurking among the Guards.
This time, after briefly shaking off the entanglement of that Level Six Ruined Beast and posing a deadly threat to the Legion Beast, Ren Zhong finally witnessed the despicable extra deployment of the Mengdu Group.
If the ray cannon’s power supply had lasted another 0.1 second, he would have been pierced through and killed.
Even in a state of Consciousness Upload, Ren Zhong felt intense pain from deep within his soul.
This was the pain of the Red Blade, and it was also Ren Zhong’s pain.
But Ren Zhong did not give up; instead, he ripped off the exoskeleton heavy sniper from his back and fired a Level Seven special sniper bullet at the Legion Beast.
Unfortunately, this sniper bullet also failed to make its mark, as it was deflected by a hazy Energy Shield in front of the Legion Beast, hitting a nearby Level Five Ruined Beast instead.
The detector again showed a 250,000+ Energy Level Index, indicating yet another over-the-top equipment prepared by the Mengdu Group.
The assassination attempt ended in complete failure.
Ren Zhong turned to retreat, immediately pursued by several Level Five Ruined Beasts and the leading Level Six Ruined Beast.
If not for the opponent’s attempt to capture him alive, he would have had to inject a lethal drug to escape.
Ren Zhong fled as he ran, eventually regrouping with others.
To cover the heavily wounded Ren Zhong and to buy time for the Qingfeng Heavy Truck to speed up, Ma Xiaoling and others used all their abilities and ingenuity.
Fortunately, the powerful pursuit forces were reluctant to stray too far from the Legion Beast, allowing the group to escape with their lives despite being chased by a cluster of suddenly speeding Third and Fourth Level Ruined Beasts.
At 5:58 AM, the Qingfeng Heavy Truck flew over the walls of Starfire Town, followed by a massive beast tide like dark clouds.
The next second, 6,000 Night Watchmen who had their biological clocks adjusted and were ambushed on this side of the city wall suddenly poked their heads up, each raising long-range heavy snipers for targeted shooting into the air.
A dense web of firepower intertwined in the sky, crisscrossing.
This was the order Ren Zhong gave last night.
He slightly adjusted the Night Watchman system, pre-arranging 6,000 Gunsmiths here in ambush.
This round of volleys indeed achieved remarkable success.
A large number of Ruined Beasts below Third Level flying in the air were shot down and fell.
Immediately following, explosions began to occur one after another on the ground.
One after another, Tracking Bombs the size of a baby’s fist leaped up from the ground, rapidly smashing into the approaching Ruined Beast horde.
The explosions weren’t spectacular, but the rate at which the Ruined Beasts fell was incredibly fast.
This is a type of energy-saving Super Miniature Instantaneous Tracking Flying Bomb not recorded in the Blast Masters’ textbooks.
Its designer is named Liu Sisi, the leader of the wasteland tribe in Shortcut Valley, a remarkably talented female Blast Master.
Liu Sisi’s overall strength is on par with Tang Shuying, but being born of wasteland people, she developed a unique combat thinking through years of struggle in harsh conditions.
To conserve blasting resources, she independently devised this type of Instantaneous Tracking Flying Bomb specifically for dealing with Ruined Beasts below Level Three.
This flying bomb’s blasting method focuses on pinpoint impact, with not a high total energy level, but extremely strong single-point lethality, highly concealed, and fast in flight, offering excellent cost performance.
Ren Zhong pulled her back from the crevice of time.
She also played her part.
She led the town’s Blast Masters to produce as many as hundreds of thousands of these Tracking Bombs within over ten days and deployed them around Starfire Town to form a minefield with a depth reaching a thousand meters.
Two small changes completely turned the tide of the battle.
The first wave of the beast tide didn’t even reach the city walls before coming to a complete halt, the remaining Ruined Beasts hurriedly retreated.
It’s apparent that the Legion Beast was caught off guard.
Standing on the other side of the city wall, remotely commanding several on-site cameras, and interfacing with high-definition satellite imagery, Xiao Xingyue explained with a slightly excited tone: "Starfire Town’s performance is truly surprising! No one expected that Ren Zhong would personally join the battle at the first instance and lure the opponent to appear in a predetermined direction. The long-range snipers’ surprise attack inflicted significant damage on the airborne Ruined Beasts. This minefield was beyond expectations."
"The beast tide under the Legion Beast can follow orders without fear of death, yet the wasteland people of Starfire Town under Ren Zhong’s leadership display equally astonishing combat power. Ren Zhong is truly incredible. I will go interview him now."
