“Zhang Ke, take one of Chen Gu’s iron boxes!” Gao Feng ordered.
“Yes, Captain.”
Iron Spear Zhang Ke walked towards Chen Gu, who was in the process of disassembling and storing his heavy sniper rifle into a wooden box. Chen Gu handed Zhang Ke the wooden box along with an iron box filled with numerous bullets. Then, Chen Gu himself opened another iron box and took out a terrifying machine gun. He wrapped many bullet chains around his body, one end of the chain directly connected to the machine gun.
“Tsk, tsk,” Luo Feng couldn’t help but exclaim as he watched.
High-grade thermal weapons were still very effective against ‘Beast Soldier’ level monsters. For instance, the earlier shot that killed the ‘Bloodthirsty Tank’ with one bullet. Of course, there was also an element of luck in that shot, after all, the skull had the hardest bone structure. The Bloodthirsty Tank’s massive body meant that even if it was shot, it wouldn’t be significantly affected.
Therefore—
The positions where a single bullet could kill were very rare. For example, the eyes, the area below the skull, or behind the ears. To shoot with such precision required not only skill, but also luck. As long as the Bloodthirsty Tank was slightly alert and changed its direction of movement, that shot would miss.
“Move out, let’s go downstairs.”
At Gao Feng’s command, Luo Feng and the other four immediately followed the stairs and quickly left the Lan Tian residential complex.
…
Five minutes later, Luo Feng and his group were already in an alley. Wei Tie, who was leading the way, cautiously peeked outside and then turned back to say, “Captain, that Bloodthirsty Tank has already fallen dead.”
“Old Chen, amazing job,” Gao Feng gave a thumbs-up.
Chen Gu chuckled with satisfaction.
“But, Captain,” Wei Tie continued, “around the corpse of the Bloodthirsty Tank, there are about hundreds of monsters gathered. It will be very difficult for us to retrieve the corpse.” This indeed was a troublesome aspect of attacking a Beast General-level monster with long-range attacks. Even if the attack was successful, collecting important materials from the corpse was still very dangerous.
However—
It was still much safer than fighting a Beast General-level monster amidst a horde of beasts.
“Same old routine. Wei Tie and Wei Qing, you two scatter the beast horde. We’ll take advantage of the chaos and attack together.” Gao Feng gave the order and then turned to look at Luo Feng.
Luo Feng held his breath. Charging into a horde of hundreds of beasts was indeed the most dangerous thing he had faced so far since joining the Hammer Team. However, according to some posts he had seen, this was actually a relatively simple situation that warrior teams often encountered. There were situations ten or even a hundred times more dangerous than this.
“Luo Feng, during the battle, you’ll stay by Chen Gu’s side. Your task is to protect Chen Gu and prevent any monsters from attacking him,” Gao Feng said solemnly.
“Don’t worry, Captain. I’ll make sure no monster gets close to Brother Chen,” Luo Feng nodded.
“Good, let’s move out!”
At Gao Feng’s command,
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two black streaks flew from the hands of the brothers Wei Tie and Wei Qing, like lightning bolts flying over a hundred meters and landing into the distant monster horde. These two black streaks were actually two oval-shaped black spheres, with red blinking signals indicating the timer on their surfaces.
The monsters that noticed these devices became alert and tried to move away.
Beep! Beep!
“Boom~~”
The two time bombs exploded suddenly. The powerful explosion force and flying fragments caused two monsters near the bombs to be thrown off their feet, their bodies covered in blood. At the same time, the bombs also produced a large amount of smoke, quickly spreading in all directions.
In terms of power, the two time bombs only managed to kill one monster by luck and injure five or six others. More monsters were simply affected by the smoke.
“Charge!” Gao Feng commanded.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Luo Feng also burst forth with all his strength, one hand holding a shield and the other wielding the Blood Shadow Blade. He quickly ran alongside Chen Gu. Each member of the Hammer Team ran at an astonishing speed. From a distance of one hundred and fifty meters to the Beast General-level corpse, they covered it in just four or five seconds.
This was despite the fact that their speed was significantly reduced when running into the monster horde.
“Haa!”
Captain Gao Feng, like lightning, charged ahead of everyone. With one hand holding a heavy hammer, he swung it rapidly like lightning. With two “Peng!” sounds, two Beast Soldier-level monster heads exploded. One was a mid-level Beast Soldier monster, while the other was a human warrior known as a “Junior Warlord,” but possessing near “Mid-level Warlord” strength.
The difference in strength was just too great!
With one heavy hammer in his hand, and a dagger in the other, Gao Feng almost instantly rushed to the corpse of the Beast General-level monster “Bloodthirsty Tank.” He quickly inserted the dagger into the bullet hole behind the Bloodthirsty Tank’s ear. While Gao Feng was dissecting and collecting materials from the corpse, the other five members of the Hammer Team faced a crisis.
“Hurry, Luo Feng, protect Old Chen well,” Zhang Ke swung his long spear.
The brothers Wei Tie and Wei Qing protected Captain Gao Feng from all sides. Given the Bloodthirsty Tank’s defensive capabilities, it would take a long time for others like Wei Tie or Luo Feng to dissect it. However, Gao Feng, with his astonishing strength, needed only half a minute.
“Roar~~”
“Haa~~”
The surrounding monsters noticed Luo Feng and the others and immediately began to roar and charge forward. It was like a heavy-duty Hummer car crashing towards them at over a hundred kilometers per hour.
“Roll away.” Luo Feng took two precise steps, dodging aside while his left arm’s shield slammed into the body of a charging one-horned wild boar. Suddenly hit by this powerful thrust from the side, the boar’s four hooves twisted, and its massive body tilted and crashed onto the ground, causing the already cracked cement street to shake violently and kick up a lot of dust.
Luo Feng wasn’t aiming to kill enemies, only to survive this half-minute as efficiently as possible.
“Shoo!” “Shoo!”
At this moment, Zhang Ke was swinging his long spear, killing two Beast Soldier-level monsters and driving back three others. Then, three angry monsters roared and attacked Zhang Ke simultaneously. Zhang Ke didn’t have a shield, only a long spear.
“Not good.” After delivering a slash, Zhang Ke’s expression changed.
“Roar~~” The charging speed of an Iron-Furred Wild Boar was definitely up to fifty meters per second. Its body was as large as a small truck, and its speed rivaled that of a sports car. However, Zhang Ke couldn’t block it anymore. There were already three monsters attacking him from the front.
“This time, I’m probably going to be seriously injured.” Zhang Ke gritted his teeth.
“Bang!”
A black shadow darted from the side and delivered a powerful kick to the charging Iron-Furred Wild Boar. The stability control of the boar’s body was indeed much weaker at high speed. The kick caused the boar’s massive body to tilt sideways, and it fell over, then quickly got back up.
“Brother Zhang, let’s stick together a bit.” Luo Feng said.
“Thanks, Luo Feng!” Zhang Ke shouted gratefully. If it hadn’t been for Luo Feng just now, he, Zhang Ke, would definitely have been seriously injured. Zhang Ke thought to himself, “It’s definitely the right decision to let Luo Feng join the Hammer Team. Moreover, his steps are so fast and so nimble.”
“Excellent footwork.” Chen Gu, who had been under protection all along, praised.
This horde of monsters numbered in the hundreds. With the initial dozens of monsters attacking Luo Feng and the others, more monsters were quickly drawn to the fight. Fortunately, the smoke blocked the view, and the monster horde couldn’t fully utilize its power.
“Not good, Captain, hurry up.”
Wei Tie couldn’t help but shout.
With every passing second, the danger to the Hammer Team increased. The surrounding monsters were rapidly increasing.
“Chen Gu, fire!” Gao Feng, crouching beside the corpse of the Bloodthirsty Tank and protected by the Wei brothers, gave the order.
“Yes.”
Chen Gu licked his lips and grinned ferociously. Luo Feng and Zhang Ke, standing beside Chen Gu, immediately took a step back. As Chen Gu pulled the trigger, “Rat-tat-tat~~” streams of fire erupted wildly from the gun barrel. Each bullet was an expensive armor-piercing round purchased by Chen Gu.
Against Beast General-level monsters, they were somewhat threatening.
“Roar~”
Immediately, many surrounding monsters cried out in pain. The armor-piercing bullets, fired rapidly, shot into the bodies of the monsters. These monsters had massive bodies and strong vitality, so bullets penetrating their bodies generally couldn’t kill them. Only shots to the head could kill them instantly! These armor-piercing bullets couldn’t penetrate the skull of a Beast General-level monster, but they had no problem with the Beast Soldier-level ones.
Boom! A monster’s head exploded, brains splattering everywhere.
Puff! A fallen monster had a bloody hole in its body.
“Hahaha… Die, perish!” Chen Gu resembled a raving lunatic. The Kro-alloy-infused gun barrel unleashed an unrelenting torrent of armor-piercing rounds, the madly cascading bullets instantly suppressing one flank of the monstrous horde. Luo Feng and Zhang Ke stood guard, fending off creatures assaulting from other directions to shield Chen Gu’s onslaught.
The relentless barrage of gunfire also enabled the monstrous figures within the smoke to instantly pinpoint the direction and surge forward with frenzied abandon.
In a group battle, Chen Gu’s ability with the machine gun was equivalent to ten warriors! But at the same time, once the machine gun fired, it would attract the monsters’ attention.
“Alright, let’s go.”
Gao Feng, who had successfully collected the materials, let out a low growl, and immediately Luo Feng and the others felt relieved.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The six members of the Hammer Team dashed away.
“Boom boom boom~~” Hundreds of angry monsters chased after them. The running of a single monster could shake the cement ground. The running of hundreds of monsters together was like an earthquake. The entire street, as well as the nearby dilapidated residences and houses, trembled slightly and even echoed with a thunderous sound.
“The monster horde is truly terrifying.” Luo Feng looked back and saw the hundreds of furious monsters running toward them. The scene was very shocking.
“This way.”
The Hammer Team immediately turned into an alley. The alley was very narrow, so narrow that even the monsters couldn’t run side by side; they could only enter one by one. Taking this opportunity, the Hammer Team kept turning into various alleys in the densely built-up area. Soon, they completely shook off the monster horde.
…
Half an hour later.
On the rooftop of the Haihao Grand Hotel, which was 18 stories high, Luo Feng and his group quietly arrived.
“Haha, everyone did a great job this time,” Captain Gao Feng laughed. “Chen Gu’s shot was amazing, and Luo Feng, you did well too, saving Zhang Ke. Hmm, this ‘Bloodthirsty Tank’ is a Low-level Beast General. The difficulty of hunting it was also quite high among Low-level Beast Generals. This time, we made a decent profit. We didn’t expect such a good harvest on the first day. This is a promising start! I estimate that by the end of the month, our gains will be considerable.”
Luo Feng, Chen Gu, and the others all laughed.
Luo Feng glanced at his combat watch and suddenly was startled: “There’s a call?”
Even if someone called on the combat communication watch, it wouldn’t disturb the warriors. Only when the warriors themselves looked at the watch would they know if someone had called.
“A call from home.” Luo Feng smiled and began the voice command, “Call back!”
“Beep beep beep beep…”
The communication watch quickly dialed Luo Feng’s home number.
