652 Level 3+Level 6, Is That equivalent to Level 9? (2)

“So, please forgive me, Regiment Commander Hong.”

Regiment Commander Li then seemed to have thought of something. He smiled and said.

“Of course, if Regiment Commander Hong doesn’t want our soldiers to take the risk, you can follow us to take a look.”

“If Regiment Commander Hong can bring that big shot back, I will definitely reward you handsomely!”

“Not only that, it’s also very beneficial to our Qingquan City.”

Hong Zhijie didn’t answer immediately. He gritted his teeth and thought for a while before agreeing.

“Sure.”

“However, regarding Regiment Commander Li’s order, I will report this to General Liu.”

The regiment commander didn’t take Hong Zhijie’s threat seriously.

“Hahaha, please help yourself~”

“Remember, nothing must happen to the big shot in the mine!”

“Otherwise, we’ll all have to be unable to bear the consequences of failure!”

With that, he hung up.

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Hong Zhijie returned the communicator to the soldier and looked at Bao Liang.

“You can choose not to go.”

“You guys won’t be able to interfere in this battle.”

Upon hearing Hong Zhijie’s words, Bao Liang hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.

“Sir, I understand what you mean, but this is an order. We have to go over.”

“Otherwise, even if we go back safely, we will be punished by Regiment Commander Li.”

Hong Zhijie opened his mouth and nodded. He didn’t say anything else about letting the soldiers go back.

After all, he was a senior officer himself.

It was a little inappropriate to continue “instigating” the subordinate to not listen to the commander.

“Alright, let’s go…”

Then, Hong Zhijie drove the dozens of soldiers towards the mine a kilometer ahead.

After driving for a few minutes, Hong Zhijie felt a faint sense of oppression coming from the front and immediately stopped the chauffeur.

“Stop right here!”

He looked at the buildings in front of him and heard a loud chewing sound.

Hong Zhijie quickly signaled for everyone to quiet down.

Then, he took the lead and slowly walked towards the scattered buildings in front of him.

Two minutes later, the group arrived at the shrubbery at the edge of the mine and looked at the small open-pit mine.

At this moment, there were no more workers in the mine.

The four-meter-tall warehouse at the side seemed to have been “opened” by someone. The entire roof had been forcefully torn open.

The “Devil Rock Giant” that Hong Zhijie had seen in the video earlier was now standing on the side of this large warehouse. It bent down and took huge pieces of unprocessed ores from inside, stuffing them directly into its toothless mouth.

Crack, crack, crack, crack…

With the sound of a rock shattering, a piece of ore weighing hundreds of kilograms entered the stone giant’s stomach.

‘What about the trapped men? Where are they?’

Bao Liang shook his head.

However, he looked at a soldier behind him.

“San Er, sense it.”

“Mm!”

The soldier then crawled forward a little and lay on the ground. He tilted his ear and crawled into the bushes.

It looked like he was listening to something.

After a minute, San Er carefully got up and pointed to a three-story steel building at the back of the warehouse.

“There are almost 20 people’s auras inside, and there are about 30 people in the mine. There are three in the warehouse.”

As San’er pointed in the direction, Hong Zhijie could not help but feel troubled.

The people in the mine were easy to deal with.

It was about 50 to 60 meters away from the warehouse.

Actually, if those people were bolder and crawled to the end of the mine, they might have been able to leave.

Of course, the biggest disadvantage of climbing like this was that if one was discovered by the Demon Rock Giant, he would basically be dead.

The surroundings of the mine were completely bare. It was nearly a hundred meters away from the surrounding forest.

Therefore, they could only wait in the pit and pray that the mutated beast would not discover them.

The people around the warehouses were even more unlucky.

The Demon Rock Giant was standing in the middle of two buildings.

If it sat down on a whim, these 20 to 30 people could say goodbye to the face of the world.

This was also Hong Zhijie’s headache.

It was obvious that the big shot couldn’t be in the mine.

In other words, he had to lure this thing away first.

Thinking of this, Hong Zhijie turned to look at Bao Liang.

“Does this thing have any weaknesses?”

Bao Liang thought for a moment, then shook his head.

“I don’t know.”

“There’s too little information about this kind of mutated beast. Other than hearing the name and some characteristics from the older generation, I don’t know anything else.”

After receiving no news from Bao Liang, Hong Zhijie gritted his teeth and took a few steps forward. The aura on his body began to rise abruptly.

Its body also expanded into a five to six-meter-tall golden behemoth.

At the same time, a set of golden scales appeared on his body.

The sudden change attracted the attention of the Demon Rock Giant, who was still eating.

“Oook?”

The Demonic Rock Giant, who had just taken out a piece of ore, looked at its “younger brother”, who was two to three meters shorter than it. The yellow eyes in the stone eye sockets instantly turned extremely red.

Although it liked to eat all kinds of hard things, it didn’t mean that it didn’t eat humans or beasts.

Moreover, the energy in this “little brother”‘s body was much richer than these stones!

“Mmph!”

After letting out an excited low voice, the Demon Rock Giant casually threw the rugged ore the size of a millstone at Hong Zhijie.

Then, it transformed into an agile fatty. Its three-meter-tall rock legs took huge steps and rushed towards Hong Zhijie.

Hong Zhijie, who had smashed the ore with one punch, looked at the Demon Rock Giant that was about to reach him in a few seconds. He quickly pulled to the side to create an opportunity for Bao Liang and the others to reach the warehouse.

Unfortunately, Hong Zhijie had underestimated the speed of this thing.

Although the Demon Rock Giant was huge, it was not slow at all.

After Hong Zhijie pulled him out for about ten meters, he was caught up.

Feeling the strong wind behind him, Hong Zhijie could only turn around and raise his thick arms, putting them together in front of him.

THUMP!

When the Demon Rock Giant’s fist that was as big as a small car smashed into Hong Zhijie’s arms, Hong Zhijie felt an irresistible force pouring into his arms in an instant.

He did not even have time to deflect the force before the five to six-meter-tall Behemoth was sent flying. It only stopped after smashing through more than ten trees along the way.

Good news: the Demon Rock Giant was successfully lured away from the mine this time.

Bad news: Hong Zhijie felt that he wouldn’t be able to take more than a few hits.

After getting up from the ground, Hong Zhijie’s arms were trembling.

It was only because his Behemoth mutation ability made his entire body thick and sturdy, making him quite resistant to beatings.

Otherwise, if it were any other Level 6 beast-type mutant, their arms would probably be broken on the spot.

Looking at the Demon Rock Giant that continued to rush over, Hong Zhijie twisted his body and mobilized the pangolin to protect his chest, back, and sides.

The scales on its body began to gather on his two arms.

After a few breaths, Hong Zhijie’s arms were completely covered by the golden pangolin scales.

“Hey!”

“Level 3+Level 6, is that equivalent to Level 9?!”

Feeling that his arms were full of strength again, Hong Zhijie joked with himself and took the initiative to go up to him.

This time, he did not choose to defend. Instead, he waved his fist.

The two huge creatures, which were nearly three meters apart in size, collided for the second time in the forest.

THUMP!

Another thunderous sound rang out.
