CHAPTER 370: CHAPTER 173: EARTH-SHATTERING UPHEAVAL (PART 2)

"Fight for the Holy Trinity!"

"Fight for the Holy Trinity!"

The roars came from all directions, and Jin Zhong took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm his wildly beating heart.

The smoke and dust gradually rose among the trees.

But what first appeared before everyone’s eyes was not the two Level 4 monsters.

It was the Terror Demons.

Holding various weapons, their bodies covered in blood, the Terror Demons charged out of the woods, seemingly wanting to tear through the Guard Brigade’s defenses with a direct assault.

This was the experience they had summarized from countless battles with the Church Protection Army.

Being timid was useless, and trying to maneuver or tangle was meaningless.

If they could charge directly into the ranks of the Church Protection Army at a certain cost, their opponent would collapse instantly from fear.

This was the only way to defeat them!

The leading Terror Demon chief swung its single-shot rifle, firing bullets at the loose lines ahead, realizing that what stood before it could not possibly be the heavily armored Guard Brigade.

They were just ordinary Church Protection Army soldiers.

This boosted its confidence even more, and it eagerly rushed to the front, wanting to taste the first blood and tear off the first head to offer to the Blood God.

--- But, at the moment it exposed itself.

A barrage of bullets suddenly tore its body apart.

It watched in shock as two bullets passed through its shoulder, and immediately after, its right arm detached from its body and fell to the ground.

It stared blankly at the bleeding wound, instinctively wanting to pick up its arm, but suddenly realized it had lost all ability to move.

The bullet wound that pierced its abdomen caused its muscle tissues, no different from those of a human, to contract violently, and in a fit of severe convulsions, it fell to the ground.

Blood flowed into its eyes, staining its vision crimson.

In the final moment before losing consciousness completely, the last thing it saw was those "Church Protection Army" soldiers leaping out from behind cover, moving swiftly through the jungle in a way it couldn’t comprehend...

...

"Rocket launchers! Close in to within 200 meters!"

"Fire at will! Fire at will!"

"Reload the ammunition!"

"Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth squadrons, start moving towards the First Squadron’s direction! Clear out the Blood Skulls along the way! Reinforce the flanking firepower!"

Jin Zhong continuously shouted commands with a booming voice; at this moment, he finally realized the power of the "oblique offensive" Chen Jian had mentioned.

Yes, this was indeed the best method to deal with dense monsters like the Terror Demons when there was a shortage of combat personnel!

The densest formation and heaviest firepower from the First, Second, and Third Squadrons quickly cleared the charging Terror Demons in front of them, then advanced in teams of three, swiftly cutting through the Terror Demons’ front lines.

Afterwards, the other squads steadily moved forward, coordinating with the vanguard to attack.

Virtually all their offensives came from the flanks, and the Blood Skulls couldn’t find the true direction of attack at all.

Bullets seemed to be hitting from all directions, so if they turned to face one direction, bullets from behind and from the flanks would still tear them apart!

With the powerful firepower of the Type 75 rifles, the first stage of the battle was as easy as a leisurely stroll.

Jin Zhong’s confidence soared, but he also knew that this was only the first stage!

Two Level 4 monsters had already appeared in front of them.

With just rifles, it would be impossible to...

--- No, not impossible!

Jin Zhong stood in shock, looking at the incredible scene in the distance.

From three squads, ten three-member combat teams spread out in all directions, yet they didn’t have many "powerful" weapons, with even the rocket launcher and disposable grenade launcher soldiers not yet within effective range.

But, with just over twenty rifles, these team members surprisingly managed to hold the monster at bay!

Bullets poured in continuously, and when a soldier finished his magazine, he shouted instructions to his brothers and quickly crouched down to reload bullets into the magazine.

Within just a few seconds, the gunfire resumed.

"Bang bang bang bang bang----"

No intervals, and no need to pause.

While the splattering bullets might not cause substantial damage to the monster’s thick skin and meat, nor achieve a one-hit kill effect.

Yet, facing the bullets coming from all directions, that monster actually fell into a state of confusion.

It was only focused on raging in place, swinging its claws trying to catch those annoying "flies" attacking it, but to no avail...

Jin Zhong faintly sensed that he seemed to have grasped some essence.

But at this moment, he didn’t have time to think too much.

Lifted the explosive gun.

Aimed, fired.

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

A not-so-huge explosion erupted on the monster’s head.

Immediately followed by a second and third shot.

Scales were torn apart, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Jin Zhong shouted the order:

"Leave this one to me!"

"Assault team, go take down the other one!"

"Yes!"

The response came, and then a rocket exploded on the chest of the second Level 4 monster.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The sounds of explosion were deafening, and seeing the fallen monster, Jin Zhong raised his explosive gun once again.

But this time, he no longer knew which target to aim at.

Raising his gun and looking around, what he felt was a unprecedented sense of bewilderment....

....

Three hours later, at Base 011.

Jin Zhong stood in front of Chen Jian, with the victorious and high-spirited Guard Brigade behind him.

Even now, he still hadn’t figured out how this battle was won.
