CHAPTER 346: CHAPTER 348: JI RUXUE UNLEASHES HER POWER! A TERRIFYING STRENGTH!

Boom boom boom ~

The armed forces deployed around received the command and immediately opened fire at Flame One in the sky.

Snipers positioned at high points suddenly pulled the trigger, and sturdy bullets burst out from the muzzle one after another.

Warriors with rocket launchers aimed their sights at Flame One, and with a "boom," the rockets transformed into fiery serpents in the air, rushing at extreme speed, emitting piercing whistles.

Meanwhile, the ordinary soldiers, who were most numerous, also raised their rifles at this moment and fired dense barrages of bullets.

Armored vehicles distributed around also had high-caliber machine guns spewing fiery serpents from their thick barrels; additionally, armed helicopters flying above let their machine guns roar.

In an instant, the whole Hengye District was filled with smoke and gunfire that roared like thunder, making the sky seem dim at this moment.

Faced with such a dense attack, even Flame One, who could fly and was very fast, couldn’t completely dodge it all.

Fortunately, with the Fire Spirit Body, Flame One didn’t need to dodge all the attacks.

The next moment.

Swoosh swoosh ~

Under Lu Chuan’s control, Flame One’s fiery body moved swiftly in the air, ready to evade all the rockets and machine gun shells.

Amid the deafening screech, Flame One brushed past the shells, facing the incoming rain of bullets directly.

Bang bang bang ~

With a series of dense noises, bullets pierced through Flame One’s body, creating thumb-sized holes and erupting sparks.

Unexpectedly, these holes left by the bullets didn’t last long; nearby flames extended and quickly healed them.

Other than a brief dimming of its Spiritual Light, Flame One was virtually unharmed.

Witnessing this scene, the human army present was stunned, unable to believe that this thing could actually be immune to physical attacks. It was really...

For a moment, the sound of guns and artillery paused in stupefied silence.

"What are you standing around for? Keep firing! Fire! Fire..."

The officer in command on-site snapped back to reality and was about to give the order to attack again.

At this time, a communications officer hurried over, saluted the commanding officer, and said solemnly: "Sir, latest orders. The troops must immediately retreat from Hengye District, and are forbidden from entering it."

"What? We just engaged with this tier-five Evolved Zombie, and now we’re retreating?"

Upon hearing this, the officer in charge was somewhat astonished, looking at the other as if not believing.

This order was changed a bit too quickly, wasn’t it?

"Sorry sir, but this is a military order!"

The communications officer shook his head and said strictly.

Though unwilling, the officer had no choice but to use the intercom to disgruntledly shout: "Attention units, an exceptional circumstance has occurred, retreat immediately!"

The soldiers received this baffling order, and none could make sense of it, retreating just after starting the fight. Were they merely tickling this Flame Zombie?

However, since military orders are as firm as a mountain, even though everyone had opinions, they could only grumble internally and obediently withdrew from combat, leaving the Hengye District’s boundaries.

Boom boom boom ~

The tanks and armored vehicles that had entered the district began withdrawing rapidly, exiting the district’s gates.

Soon after the troops withdrew, thirty-six self-propelled howitzers of the heavy artillery regiment several kilometers away had already completed their deployment, awaiting firing orders.

Upon seeing the human military suddenly retreat, Lu Chuan frowned, feeling an ominous foreboding.

What was going on? Why did these humans retreat so quickly?

Moreover, it appeared these guys weren’t retreating altogether but had stopped outside the district, not attacking anymore, seemingly waiting for something.

"Why did they run? Were they scared of Lu Chuan’s Evolved Zombie?"

Zhao Lin looked up, gazing at Flame One, untouched, through a window, speculating inwardly.

At this time, inside the temporary command center outside the district, the commander was conversing with the heavy artillery regiment.

"Sir, the heavy artillery regiment is fully deployed, awaiting orders!"

A voice came through the intercom.

"Open fire immediately, bombard Hengye District with at least two ammunition loads, don’t be stingy, I’ll make up any shortage later; strive to turn Hengye District into ruins!"

The commander’s expression was grave and said with utmost seriousness.

"Yes!"

At this moment, Lu Chuan, puzzled over why the human army had suddenly retreated, discovered the problem.

He detected the artillery positions several kilometers away through the airborne Flyer One.

Seeing those self-propelled howitzers, Lu Chuan’s pupils instantly contracted.

Damn it!

The next moment Lu Chuan’s mind shifted, and Undead One, Flame One, and other Corpse Puppets with long-range attack abilities began charging up.

Outside the district, the concealed temporary command commander issued the attack order at that moment.

"Fire!"

Boom boom boom ~

At once, cannons roared with a shockingly powerful force, and huge shells swiftly crossed several kilometers, falling towards Hengye District.

Watching this scene through Flame One’s perspective, Lu Chuan’s expression became exceptionally heavy; these heavy artillery shells could at least kill everything within a hundred-meter radius with one shot, even now, Er Pang probably couldn’t withstand a few shots.

Boom ~

Instantly, Flame One and other Corpse Puppets made their move to intercept the falling shells.

The flames on Flame One soared into the sky, transforming into a ten-meter-wide hand, shining brightly, reaching for the incoming shells.

Boom! Boom!

In an instant, two adjacent shells were caught directly by the flaming hand, exploding immediately, and terrifying flames soared into the sky, with deafening sounds.

Undead One’s back meat tentacles released Thunderballs, bursting in the air to form ten-meter diameter lightning nets, instantaneously detonating seven or eight shells.

However, even though the Corpse Puppets went all out, they still couldn’t intercept all the shells; these shells were too fast, leaving no chance for another attempt by the Corpse Puppets.

Except for a few that were detonated, most shells broke through the Corpse Puppets’ blockade and were about to fall within the district.

Whizz whizz whizz ~

The terrifying shriek of falling shells was chilling.

"It’s over!"

Hearing the sound of shells falling, Zhao Lin felt her scalp tingle; a sense of life-or-death crisis surged into her heart.

"No one can harm my dad!"

At this moment, Ji Ruxue, worried for Lu Chuan’s safety, was enraged, unleashing a powerful aura like massive waves sweeping across.

At this moment, strong Power of Time spread in all directions, causing the falling shells to freeze in mid-air.

As the next moment arrived, Ji Ruxue’s Telekinesis exploded, and the shells that were about to fall instantly retreated at high speed.
