037 Burning Streets

Da da da da—

The Heavy Machine Gun of the Gurant soldiers riddled a car with holes, but the remaining kinetic energy was still enough to disembowel two Bermudes soldiers. The surviving comrades, their eyes bloodshot, moved to a new position while firing their rifles into the distance, trying to provide suppressive fire and help their comrades escape.

However, their bullets could only leave a few dents in the armor. Even though the visibility was extremely poor due to the Frost and Snow and snow, and they were caught off guard, the Grand Army still had the advantage in equipment. They turned on their Infrared Headlights and equipped themselves with night vision devices, and still had a superior range against the distant Bermudes soldiers.

"These traitors to the motherland actually think they can use the advantage of urban warfare to wage guerrilla warfare against us. It's laughable!"

The gunner ignored the Heavy Machine Gun, crawled back into the vehicle, closed the hatch, and gave a mocking laugh.

"Don't let your guard down. Be wary of the alleyways and windows around us. If they attack from above, our tanks and armor will have a hard time stopping them."

That's what they said, but when the autoloader crammed in a grenade and turned the turret's main gun to aim at the bunker, the commander just gave a cold smile.

it's over.

"Fire."

The primer ignited, and the heavy shell burst forth with intense Mars. The metal shell spiraled forward, about to leave the barrel.

Boom! The entire tank was instantly enveloped by an invisible force field and crushed flat. Li Aoz's figure fell instantly, his feet landing on the tank that was almost crushed into scrap metal. He then immediately sprang up, causing the unfired shell to explode inside the vehicle. After leaving a dazzling explosion, he quickly pounced on another tank.

Armored units are like clumsy turtles to the Gravity Manipulator. Machine guns can't keep up with their 60G acceleration. If Li Aoz hooks his hand and gives a gravitational pull 20 times greater than the sky, the 50-ton main battle tank will be instantly thrown into the air and then crash violently to the ground, kicking up billowing dust in the shape of birdcages.

With 100.1 points of [Charm], Li Aoz is no less than a Mobile Armor on the battlefield of modern warfare, and he can clear out an area with a range of 50 meters.

"That's... that looks like our Beta-rank —it's Mr. Li Aoz!"

"Great! We're saved!"

"The enemy's formation has been broken through by Li Aoz! Compatriots, for the liberation of our motherland, kill!"

Li Aoz began to intentionally lower the flight altitude, and he casually used gravity to pull over two 54-ton 'Tanuki' tanks, sweeping them left and right.

With a flick of his wrist, Li Aoz sent two tanks, each with a 50G acceleration, crashing to the ground. The ammunition inside exploded, and the fierce shockwave spread outwards, causing the entire street to collapse and sending all the soldiers flying into the air, including several Alpha Rank officers.

"This kind of advance is too slow. We won't reach Surut Palace until we break through this street."

The defenses along this street are very well constructed, with snipers on all sides, making it very difficult for advancing teams to break through.

Li Aoz muttered to himself, then suddenly raised his hand and lifted an Alpha Rank [Assassin] who was about to launch a sneak attack into the air. The opponent looked Terror and thrashed about in mid-air in disbelief.

"What, what is this—"

"Noisy".

Li Aoz pondered for a moment, then clenched his fist again.

Splat!

With forty times the force of gravity pressing down, the opponent's flesh and blood were instantly crushed into a pile of minced meat.

The bullets struck Li Aoz and were immediately deflected by gravity. Li Aoz opened his hands and repeatedly clenched his fists. The soil, gravel, soldier remains, tanks, steel, and concrete on the ground were instantly stripped away. Under his will, they coalesced into a 400-ton sphere in front of him, not only blocking all the bullets but also sucking them into it.

"Not enough."

Li Aoz manipulated gravity with his left hand, grabbed a bag of military-grade jelly, pried open the packaging with one hand, took a few deep breaths to restore his Aura Value, and the golden halo in his eyes instantly shone with a magnificent light.

"Hey! What's that?"

The soldiers behind the defensive line only saw an ever-expanding metal sphere appearing in front of the fighting, which was extremely eerie.

The more it expanded, the more things around it flew towards it. Nearby shops and houses were affected, with hard reinforced concrete and glass being torn off, creating a series of crackling and popping sounds. In just a few seconds, its size had exceeded the limits of vision.

Li Aoz felt it wasn't enough, so he raised his right hand and pressed it against the huge sphere, which was almost 50 meters in diameter.

A conservative estimate... is around 1500 to 1600 tons? [Natural Ignition]

[Mode 2: Scour the World]

Buzz—Boom!

The molecules move violently, heating the sphere. In just an instant, the entire sphere turns a blinding red-hot, and the air is violently distorted. Just looking at it is enough to sting your eyes.

Glug...

The soldiers of Gurant weren't stupid. Given the size and materials of this thing, it was beyond destruction. So they immediately turned around and shouted:

"Run!"

Gravitational Pressure - Ten Times! A sphere weighing a thousand tons was launched at a speed of 98 meters per second, a speed far exceeding human movement. This massive sphere, carrying intense heat and flames, crashed into the ground at high speed, creating a tremendous explosion that resounded throughout the capital. The shockwave swept across the buildings, instantly destroying the defenses of an entire street, leaving a crater tens of meters deep in the ground, shrouded in intense heat and black smoke.

The sphere itself lost its gravitational binding and could no longer achieve effective cohesion. At the moment of impact with the ground, a large amount of kinetic energy was actually dispersed by the internal loose sand structure. However, their disintegration actually sent the fragments flying even further. A sentry standing guard two kilometers away was hit by the scorching fragments, his head was pierced, and he died on the spot.

Li Aoz stepped into the air, as if ascending a transparent staircase. He brought his hands together, rubbing and rotating the base of his palms. Under his will, gravity gathered all the scattered objects. The ocean of countless fragments tore through the sky and fell into the deep pit. Under the control of gravity, it filled in neatly and naturally, restoring a flat road.

People stared blankly at this behavior. It wasn't that no one possessed the power of Aoneng, but in the minds of the Grantian, Aoneng was nothing more than a fancy trick. In a real fight, it was still just a matter of one shot and the enemy would be out of breath, two shots and the enemy would be red, and three shots and the enemy would be dead.

Mr. Li Aoz himself admitted that he was just an ordinary Aoneng, and a wrongfully convicted person wanted by Frostplate and GTB. Everyone admired him and sympathized with his plight.

However, the current Li Aoz is flying smoothly in the air, casually dropping meteorites, and easily filling in ravines. This kind of power can be described as moving mountains and overturning seas, which is far from the Arcane Energy they know, which can only be used to light cigarettes, charge mobile phones, and suddenly unleash a burst of Aoneng.

"This is the true god..."

It's less Aoneng and more a matter of miracles.

With Li Aoz's violent advance clearing the way, Bermudes ' morale soared, and he bravely charged forward along the road still strewn with embers and Mars.

"That's good, they should be coming for me now?"

Li Aoz became an aerial target, attracting the attention of drones and artillery, which then rushed towards him.

The quantity, however, is truly meaningless to him.

Guh—

The Ability Pod on his arms extended from the fibers of his clothes, wrapping around his elbows and radiating waste heat.

The [Gene Grafting Enhancement Ability Pod] allows him to store up to 22 Aoneng at the same time.

But more importantly, it can not only store energy, but also combine these Aoneng, organizing and combining them like a program, and then releasing them to produce amazing chemical reactions.

This is similar to a mage using spells of various attributes to create elemental reactions or combine them to form new spells.

The same applies to Mutant.

Li Aoz drew his plain-cut longsword, and a faint purple aura of resentment appeared behind him, forming a fierce and malevolent ghost. Facing the swarm of drones rushing towards him, Li Aoz threw a piece of Ya Wen's Compressed Biscuit biscuit into his mouth, then held the longsword in front of him and quickly slashed the sword with his left middle and index fingers.

[Soul-Inscribed Sword Saint — Wargod]--Dieja

A large, purple hand formed from resentment covered Li Aoz's hand, as if a bloodthirsty demon had taken up his long sword for him.

[Natural Ignition] - Stacking

A woman's face briefly appeared on Li Aoz's face, his eyes lit up with red light, and raging flames burned on the blade of his sword.

[Gravity·Contact] - Superposition

Gravity spread like ripples across the entire knife, giving it just the right weight and terrifying acceleration.

Purple, red, and gold—the three colors rapidly shifted in his eyes, eventually merging together to form a dominant red and black.

"Now I finally understand why so many people like to be [Martial Artist]."

Li Aoz his mouth, his exhaled air turning into white mist in the cold wind sweeping behind him. He raised his sharp blade, aimed it at the swarm of drones rushing towards him, and at the entire earth, and instantly slashed out with his sword! Whoosh—

The oxygen was instantly burned away. The demon's hand gripped the longsword, which exploded in the air with a series of shrill screams, circling before coming to a stop.

The swaying crimson sword light was highly concentrated, and in an instant it slashed across the sky and the earth, the pavilion was melted and cut open, and slowly moved down along the smooth cut.

Due to the momentum from the Ghost swinging his sword for him, Li Aoz didn't recover and turned around directly, facing away from the dense swarm of drones in the sky, just as he was facing the advancing Bermudes warriors.

The next moment, the sky behind them was filled with a sea of fire, illuminating the dark red and black sky. Everyone unconsciously looked up. Although he was small compared to the night sky or the sea of fire, people found him immediately and clearly saw that he was facing away from the thousands of burning and destroyed drones.

After a brief inertial dive, the drones exploded in mid-air, creating a series of brilliant fireworks. Due to the high temperature, they burned completely and had virtually no impact on ground troops.

Only then did Li Aoz belatedly realize what was happening and glance at the newly assembled Aoneng combination:

"Trinity - [Demon-Slaying Scorching Sever]".

I suddenly realized I have a problem: I don't like to write the names of moves when writing action scenes, which means people don't have much of a chance to complain.

But I feel that given the speed and movements of the fight, there shouldn't have been enough time to speak.
