Scared?

In a brief moment of astonishment, Ming Yan almost couldn't help but let out a fierce laugh: Too late!

Unfortunately, he celebrated too soon.

He didn't understand at all; on the battlefield, when an enemy struck such a posture, what it truly meant...

Immediately following, he saw the figure revealed after Lu Feng lay down.

Ji Jue.

And in his hand, a heavily armed bombardment that was exaggerated to the extreme, as tall as Ji Jue's shoulder. It was less a gun, more a cannon!

The Mammoth II Assault Rifle, a Federation Military Power Exoskeleton Armor Standard Weapon Module, had been through decades of wars in Central Earth and was still emitting a terrifying brilliance on its blood-stained muzzle.

In this way, using his own body as a support, Ji Jue rested the butt of the gun on the A-pillar of the vehicle's frame. His fingers tapped on the gun body, his smile gentle:

"[Fire]."

At that instant, it seemed as if the entire building trembled sharply!

All the glass "silently" shattered because everyone's hearing had been robbed by the terrifying thunderous roar that whooshed through the air, leaving nothing but a creepy silence amidst the severe tinnitus.

A genuine war weapon roared once more from the brink of death, spitting out fierce flames, glory, and destruction!

It was equipped with 22.4 mm caliber anchor-type high-velocity armor-piercing bullets, custom-made by the Guardian Military Factory. Though they were almost ineffective at long distances, they were born not to bring death to the enemy from miles away, but to unleash a satisfying slaughter when up close.

On the battlefield, Armored Knights wielding such weapons would press them against the armor of their equally equipped opponents and pull the trigger.

It was known as the "Can Opener."

Regardless of how tough and thorny the "can" being pierced frontally was, it would always leak a sweet and delicious tomato sauce!

Now, as the thunder and vibrations faded, everyone looked up to see Lu Feng slowly rising from the ground, and the fragmented debris in front of him.

The giant shield was nowhere to be seen, the armor useless, cracks rapidly spreading across the steel, crumbling, falling, revealing a pale and stunned face.

Right in front of his chest, there was a terrifyingly large hole that nearly split him into two.

Through that hole, one could see the wall behind, ripped open, penetrating again and again, until it flew out of the building and soared into the vast night sky, before finally plunging into the ocean.

It's doubtful that anyone would ever find that remaining bullet.

Nor could anyone save the fallen Ming Yan.

"Go! Boss, hurry!"

Bai Yi's complexion changed drastically, so much so that he didn't even mourn his own Shadow Beast being brutally beaten on the ground, as he dragged the limp Jiang Jin up.

Even if someone like Jiang Jin, a sly local snake, didn't understand, a mercenary born in Central Earth certainly had seen such scenes countless times in nightmares.

From the instant the opponent pulled out such an outrageous gadget, their resistance became meaningless.

No, they should have made a decisive move the moment they charged in here!

This wasn't the prize fish they hoped to catch—it was unmistakably a ferocious double-headed man-eating shark!

He blew his whistle again, commanding the Invisible Shadow Beast to immediately return, hoist him and Jiang Jin up, and rush out through the back door,

"Boss, you go first!"

He pushed Jiang Jin, "I'll hold them off!"

Sadly, just as Jiang Jin had just turned the corner, Bai Yi couldn't wait to mount the Shadow Beast, dash towards the window, and land safely from the upper floor, speeding away!

Covering the retreat? Delaying?

At this moment?

Isn't that a joke?!

He just wanted to make money, not foolishly sacrifice his life to find someone to sell it to; how could he not know whose life was more important between his boss and himself?

A boss, if dead, then so be it, goodbye, and hello to the next more obedient one!

Yet, amidst the rush, the footsteps of the Shadow Beast abruptly halted.

No matter how scolded or commanded, it couldn't advance further.

Unable, or rather, instinctively, it dared not cross that invisible barrier.

In a rarely visited alley, a delicate and slender figure sat on the stairs, intently playing with a handheld gaming device, its faint glow lighting up shoulder-length short hair and a beautifully androgynous face.

A cane leaned against the nearby wall, marking an invisible boundary.

"Stay there, don't move, wait until I finish."

The newcomer, focused yet awkward at trying to perform the Dragon Ascending Slash on the screen monsters and repeatedly failing, spoke with an impatient tone, "Take one more step forward, and you're definitely dead..."

Bai Yi stood frozen in his tracks.

Daring not to move.

...

...

At that moment, back in the office ruins, Ji Jue finally recovered from the intense tinnitus and dizziness, barely regaining a bit of composure.

It felt as though he were holding a scorching hot metal pillar, his fingers nearly burning.

He looked down, took a breath, and looked at the weapon in his embrace: "[Satisfied?]"

"[...Thank you]"

After firing once, numerous cracks had appeared on the Mammoth's gun body, barely maintaining its integrity with the Superior Emblem·[Ruins] engraved upon it.

But at this moment, inside the gun's body, the malicious intent accumulated from countless killings was satisfied and contentedly welcomed its dispersion.

Like an old man who, at the moment of death, once again fought and defeated an enemy.
