"Knight" Charges!
Everything went exactly as Chen Mo had planned. Under his covert guidance and manipulation, Eddicott not only changed the attack location to the manor and increased manpower and weapons, but also personally appeared and ambushed the manor with other assassins.
At that moment, Eddicott and four other assassins, armed with automatic rifles, stood at the intersection of two fallen trees and fired wildly at the windshield of the Knight SUV.
The special alloy armor deformed more and more severely under the attacks of Eddicott and his group, and it looked like it would be destroyed in a few minutes. J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice suddenly rang out again.
"Boss, the last assassin has arrived."
As soon as J.A.R.V.I.S. finished speaking, Chen Mo saw the view of the manor gate behind him displayed on the rear windshield through the rearview mirror.
A white van, somewhat similar to the Jinbei minivans in United States, turned off Highway 1 and quickly pulled up to the iron gate of the estate.
Then a man dressed in the same jungle camouflage as the others got out of the car. After taking a look at the situation, he quickly ran towards the gate, then easily jumped over the wooden fence next to the gate, disappeared into the woods, and circled the off-road vehicle from a distance, dodging stray bullets, before rushing to the side of Eddicott's five men who were still attacking.
All the personnel involved in the attack have arrived, and the footage that Chen Mo wanted to film— the Knight SUV remaining An Ran for a long time under the intense firepower of the militants—has been sufficient. The Knight SUV's formidable defense has been well demonstrated. Next, it's time to showcase its other capabilities.
The problem of Eddicott should be completely eliminated!
The new assassin had just joined the other five, picked up his automatic rifle, and also joined the attack on the SUV.
But before he could even empty a magazine, the black bulletproof SUV that had been standing still and silently enduring the attack since the start of the assault suddenly moved!
A sudden roar of an engine erupted, seemingly vibrating the air itself. The "Knight" SUV, riddled with bullet holes, shot off like an arrow, hurtling forward with incredible speed, braving the dense hail of bullets as it charged toward the six people behind the tree!
At this moment, the black "Knight" SUV truly resembled a powerful Knight, standing firm against the fierce attack, blocking all attacks with its sturdy armor. Once it launched a counterattack, its ferocious and powerful aura made those standing in front of it tremble with fear, and an uncontrollable urge to flee arose in their hearts.
At this moment, the six men, including Eddicott, felt the same way. Judging from the SUV's stance, it seemed to be planning to crash directly into them. Its powerful acceleration over the short distance of a dozen meters quickly propelled its speed to over sixty miles per hour. While this speed wasn't ideal, a direct hit would be enough to kill two men. Coupled with its massive size and unstoppable momentum, all six men felt an urge to drop their weapons and immediately dodge.
"Don't panic! There are two trees blocking his way, he can't get through at all!"
Eddicott glared fiercely at the oncoming SUV and roared through gritted teeth.
The two thick, fallen trees that crossed each other formed Barricade, the shortest of which was more than a meter high, making it impossible to cross. The weight of the two decades-old trees, plus the fact that both ends were stuck in the woods on either side of the road, meant they couldn't be moved by a collision. So reason told him that Chen Mo simply couldn't get through.
The other five understood this principle as well, so although they were somewhat intimidated by the momentum of the approaching SUV, they remained standing in place, gritting their teeth and frantically firing bullets at the SUV that was rushing towards them, hoping to break through its defenses as soon as possible.
The "Knight" off-road vehicle quickly rushed to the sturdy Barricade, seemingly about to crash into it at any moment. The six people behind the tree couldn't help but take a few steps back, and their firepower slowed down. Reason is one thing, and instinct is another.
It's like, even if people know that bulletproof glass can stop incoming bullets, they will still instinctively dodge when a bullet comes at them.
As they backed away, the group couldn't help but wonder what would happen if the car hit a tree. At that speed, an ordinary SUV would definitely be totaled and completely broken down, never to be moved again.
They had already experienced the armor protection of this bulletproof SUV firsthand; it was extremely robust. They just didn't know how well it could withstand impacts.
Under the watchful eyes of the six people, the "Knight" off-road vehicle finally made contact with the fallen tree, but the violent collision they had imagined did not occur.
As soon as he started sprinting forward, Chen Mo activated the High-Power Off-Road Mode. While sprinting forward, the Knight's chassis was also rapidly rising. Before hitting the tree trunk, it had already risen to its highest point, more than 50 centimeters above the ground.
Moreover, Chen Mo did not rush straight toward the intersection of the tree trunks, but veered more than a meter to the right. Just when the front bumper was less than a meter away from the Barricade, Chen Mo suddenly turned the steering wheel to the left, and the front of the car quickly veered to the left. The right front wheel made diagonal contact with the shorter trunk on the right side of the first tree.
Because the two trees fell from the left and right sides respectively, and their lush canopies supported their upper parts, the two trees crossed diagonally to form this X-shaped Barricade. The first tree closest to Chen Mo fell from the right side of the road, so the right side is shorter and the left side is taller.
At this point, the height of the tree trunk in front of the right tire of the off-road vehicle is slightly shorter than that at the intersection point, less than one meter, while the trunk itself has a diameter of sixty or seventy centimeters, and the bottom is only about thirty centimeters from the ground.
The "Knight" off-road vehicle has wheels with a diameter of over 80 centimeters. After the outer side of the tires contacted the tree trunk, they did not slip but instead demonstrated super strong grip, firmly holding onto the tree trunk. Driven by the powerful engine, as the tires rotated, the front of the vehicle lifted up, and the entire right front wheel smoothly pressed onto the tree trunk.
Immediately afterward, before the left tire made contact with the tree trunk, the lower part of the front bumper first hit the tree trunk.
A loud scraping sound rang out, followed by large pieces of bark being scraped off the bumper, sending wood chips flying everywhere.
However, due to the inertia of the car's forward momentum and the power output of the right front wheel, the front of the car continued to move forward and upward. The left tire finally touched the tree trunk and drove up smoothly. The entire front of the car was completely lifted up and pressed against the "Barricade".
