Chapter 380 - 380 264

380: 264 380: 264 Star Rank had launched the weapon system of the anti-gravity car as soon as they received the order.

The two Hunter turrets that appeared before fired again, hitting the monster’s weaknesses with precision.

With the target marked, the next step was to unleash the firepower.

“Tracking Bullet in place, switching to free fire mode, countdown: three, two, one…”

As the voice of Dawn’s intelligence host rang out, countless bullets sprayed out from the two machine guns, once again enveloping the sky in a terrifying steel river.

In the next instant, the sky full of bullets shot towards the marked location like a hive returning to its nest, all converging on that single point.

This scene was also seen by the observing Azure Dragon Army, who all stopped in their tracks and stared intently at the massive figure in the distance.

Hu Hu’s eyes widened, his fists clenched tight.

Now, if that person could just kill this monster, it would undoubtedly be great news.

After all, seeking support took time, and even the nearest base at Sheep Village would not be able to arrive immediately.

During this time, the kind of destruction the monster would cause was unknown to anyone.

As the gunfire hit its mark, the plant monster staggered and fell backwards, but ultimately did not fall over due to its unique body structure, otherwise, the nearby Three Institutes might have been instantly crushed.

Zhang Xiaoman let out a slight sigh of relief, having been genuinely startled just now, but fortunately, there had been no repercussions.

Although the monster “stood” up, it did not stand on two legs like a human but rather had a conical shape, wider at the bottom, making it hard to topple.

“Woo!!!”

The monster, having been attacked so fiercely, let out an angry cry, though it was unclear how it could make any sound as it appeared to have no mouth anywhere.

Bullets hitting the plant in front of its heart splattered countless drops of bright red liquid, along with pieces of plant.

Zhang Xiaoman noticed that the creature seemed to have changed its form, the green fluid from before now turned into a blood-like red.

However, unlike the scene imagined where the monster would have collapsed, the massive green figure still stood in its place.

Only when the smoke in the air cleared did everyone realize that Dawn’s recent attack had not penetrated its defenses.

The vines in front of the creature had only shed their outer layer.

“Dark Energy!

It definitely used Dark Energy for defense just now!”

Zhang Xiaoman’s eyes widened, he was certain that he had felt a powerful Dark Energy Fluctuation when the opponent was blocking the attack; this must be one of the monster’s defensive methods.

“Damn it, how do we fight this thing if it’s so tough?”

His expression worsened.

The monster, realizing it was under attack, immediately roared and chased towards Zhang Xiaoman’s direction.

“Quick, dodge!”

Zhang Xiaoman shouted to the System at once.

Star Rank reacted even faster, controlling the spacecraft to fly away to a distance the moment the attack commenced.

How fast is an anti-gravity car?

Even with the monster’s current size, catching up to it was simply a dreamer’s fantasy.

“Hunter turret ammunition exhausted, no spare ammunition detected in the loading bay, please replenish immediately, Commander.”

Inside the car, the emotionless voice of the onboard system relayed that Zhang Xiaoman’s ammunition was depleted.

“Dammit, if the bullets are out, use the lasers to blast it, don’t I still have two missile launchers?

Use them all, I don’t believe we can’t take it down today!”

Fired up, Zhang Xiaoman immediately issued new commands to the system.

At that moment, a request for communication was suddenly sent, he checked, and it was from Hu Hu.

“Your Excellency, we have relayed the distress signal back to the headquarters, and they will soon provide remote assistance.

Please, for the safety of the people in Qionghua City, help us buy some time …”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoman did not refuse and accepted the request right away.

He intervened partly to collect points, but mainly to ensure the safety of the people here.

Otherwise, why would he waste ammunition fighting monsters when he could just wait for the Azure Dragon Army to take care of it and then just come in for the kill credits?

Thinking this, he couldn’t help but feel emotional, originally, he just wanted to be a freeloader on his way to the peak of life.

God knows why he had gradually ended up here, a day had come when he found himself tasked with saving the world.

However, he didn’t have much time to ponder.

Since the call from the Abnormality Department had come through, he casually asked:

“Minister Hu, besides the Three Institutes in this area, are there any residents left?”

Hu Hu responded immediately.

“No more!

Within a kilometer radius, we have completed the evacuation.

However, we still hope Your Excellency could avoid using high-yield weapons as much as possible, after all, this is still part of Qionghua City, and there are also employees from the Three Institutes…”

As he spoke, he also felt somewhat conflicted and eventually decided to leave it unsaid.

This wasn’t really his fault; although it was necessary to eliminate the monster quickly, the methods and means had to be carefully considered.

As he had mentioned, this is still an urban area.

Even though the personnel had been evacuated, the destruction caused by the battle still needed to be kept within a certain range.

Zhang Xiaoman nodded in understanding and then terminated the communication.

Now, the good news was that the monster, in pursuit of his Dawn, had gradually moved away from the Three Institutes, reducing his worries about causing accidental harm.

As he was thinking, two loud sonic booms suddenly burst through the sky.

Before he could react, he saw a burst of blood mist and dust erupt from the monster ahead, causing it to stagger.

However, just like before, as the explosion dissipated, the monster showed little sign of injury; it possessed a frightening self-healing ability, and non-fatal damages were quickly recovered.

“Was that a missile from the Azure Dragon Army?”

Zhang Xiaoman came to his senses and after confirming with the onboard intelligent system, finally understood what had happened.

It turned out that just moments ago, two Falcon Missiles launched by the Azure Dragon Army headquarters, traveling over a hundred kilometers, struck their target accurately, achieving a beyond-visual-range attack.

Unlike at Sheep Village, the headquarters of the Azure Dragon Army located near Meihua City can provide such swift support, showcasing their impressive efficiency.

It’s just unfortunate that, although the missiles hit, their effect was not significant, and the monster still appeared as lively as ever.
