The most intimidating of all were undoubtedly those two Electromagnetic Tanks!
"Hmph, Old Capital Killing God. What a boastful name. That Pan-Human Hunter could only flee when facing us, yet a mere human wants to charge our formation alone?"
At the outer defensive position, a Tier 1 Peak Martial Artist held a mounted sniper cannon and spoke disdainfully.
The sniper cannon in its hands had killed three Tier 2 Regular Martial Artists!
"And they still told us to rest less these past few days and raise our alert level. If you ask me, the higher-ups are just too afraid of death. Kliffen was right—a bunch of craven dogs."
"Keep your voice down. There have been aircraft from the television tower around Kasar Street Block these past few days. If the higher-ups hear you, be careful they make you shoot yourself in the back."
The alien operating the sniper cannon curled its lips and said nothing more.
It looked toward the end of the straight main road, which happened to point directly at the setting sun sinking into the distant buildings.
The dusky light, carrying a hint of sorrow, shone straight over. It had no effect on the alien wearing goggles.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, a startled cry rang out.
The nearby aliens all looked toward the alien with the sniper cannon. "What is it?"
Then they saw the alien's expression gradually shift from confusion to horror.
"They're here! They're here!"
"What's here?" The aliens all looked into the distance.
"Old Capital Killing God is attacking from the front, and there's someone else with him!"
More than a thousand aliens were shocked. The Tier 2 alien leading them remained disdainful.
"At a distance of nearly a thousand meters, the Electromagnetic Tank's intelligent auxiliary calibration only needs 1.2 seconds. Not even a Tier 3 Martial Artist can dodge from this distance!"
"..."
The air fell silent. After waiting for more than ten seconds without hearing the roar of the Electromagnetic Tanks, the Tier 2 alien's expression changed slightly.
"What's going on? What are Teams Three and Four doing?!"
"Teams Three and Four, fire the cannons!!"
The entire defensive position erupted into commotion.
"Kasar Street Block, I'm back again."
Jiang Xiao, approaching slowly and unhurriedly from nearby, let out a mocking laugh. His powerful Source Energy Aura exploded in an instant, making the ground tremble faintly!
The next moment, a streak of silver-blue light rose and began circling like an immortal's flying sword.
At the alien defensive position, the alien holding a machine cannon at the front line screamed in terror over the channel.
"Charge the formation! They're charging the formation!"
"Open fire! Free fire! Stop them!!"
"No!!"
Boom boom boom!
The distance of several hundred meters vanished in an instant. Carrying terrifying force, Jiang Xiao was like a tank, smashing through the concrete fortification and charging into the alien ranks like daylight breaking through the clouds!
He stirred up a storm of blood and gore.
The Chainsaw Sword buzzed as it swung at a speed difficult for the naked eye to follow. Dozens of aliens were cut to pieces before they could even fire.
Boom boom boom!! While hacking through the enemy, Jiang Xiao drew the Source Energy Bombard Gun and rapidly pulled the trigger. Every Source Energy round fell into the enemy ranks like a bomb!
In the blink of an eye, the defensive position that had just been preparing to organize its defenses was forcibly scattered.
Nearby, at the edge of the defensive position.
A petite figure slowly stepped inside. Her crimson eyes, illuminated by the setting sun, resembled blood-red eyes and brimmed with icy light.
An alien that was continuously firing at Jiang Xiao in the distance caught sight of her from the corner of its eye and subconsciously turned its head.
Its expression instantly froze.
"It's the Hunter! The Hunter is still alive!!"
Chapter 47: Attention from the Star Harbor
No alien paid attention to its cry—or rather, had the mood to care!
With the Wicked Soul Market incident over, whether among ordinary criminals in Sin Capital or in the eyes of the various gangs, Old Capital Killing God's danger had long since surpassed that of the Pan-Human Hunter!
Moreover, most low-level gang members and criminals had never seen the Hunter act. Their understanding of her strength was basically based on hearsay.
Old Capital Killing God was different. Every bit of his fame had been forged through slaughter in full view of the public!
Boom boom boom!!
Hundreds of Electromagnetic Rifles, grenade launchers, and machine cannons roared furiously. The violent explosions nearly drowned Jiang Xiao's figure completely. The machine cannons that were supposedly capable of piercing an Armored Jeep could only create ripples in his Source Energy Aura when they struck around him.
Datafication evenly distributed the scant impact and shock damage across his entire body.
With one slash, he cleaved in half the Tier 1 Peak criminal attempting to flee. After casually glancing at his health, which had fallen by 12%, he immediately finished charging the Thunder Cannon Floating Cannon. A blue-and-yellow ray swept across the area in an instant!
Explosions surged upward. The shock wave tore more than a hundred gang members apart, and more than half the machine-cannon emplacements at the defensive position fell silent.
At that moment, Jiang Xiao's motion of pulling the trigger on the Explosive Gun suddenly halted.
Teammate killed a Tier 1 Elite gang member, obtaining 158 Experience Points (ally kill; experience gained reduced by 50%)
Hm??
I can gain Experience Points when my teammate kills an enemy too?!
Could this be the proper way to obtain large amounts of Experience Points?
His momentary distraction allowed more than a dozen machine-cannon shells to hit Jiang Xiao in succession. He walked out of the violent explosions and flames as if nothing had happened, casually sending a single explosive round skyward along with the machine-cannon operator.
Health: 80%
Jiang Xiao put the thought aside and began clearing the aliens before him with all his strength. Origin Data invaded dozens of drones in succession.
The next moment, dozens of drones carrying large numbers of grenades plunged toward the area with the highest concentration of criminals.
Boom boom boom!!
The explosions echoed.
Jiang Xiao felt indescribably exhilarated. The Chainsaw Sword, leaving afterimages as it swung, raised curtains of blood through the air. Precise explosive rounds continued smashing into the alien ranks, while rays from the Thunder Cannon Floating Cannon flashed like meteors.
For a time, the alien criminals at the defensive position were filled with despair.
What they were surrounding seemed not to be a flesh-and-blood creature, but an incomparably cold and powerful mechanical soldier—tireless, emotionless, possessing nothing but slaughter.
Slaughter that was utterly rational and completely devoid of desire.
Suddenly, just as Jiang Xiao was about to swing his sword again, he saw the criminal before him abruptly swell up. Then it collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.
Taking another look, he saw that it was not only the one in front of him.
Within a hundred meters of him, dozens of criminals had almost simultaneously turned into boneless lumps of mud.
Then he saw Xi Guang approaching with a calm, lovely face. Without appearing to move, she simply passed near the criminals, and one criminal after another sprayed blood and collapsed.
"Disintegrating a criminal's organs and bones—a divine skill for clearing trash mobs," Jiang Xiao praised.
He then put away the Thunder Cannon Floating Cannon.
He watched as Xi Guang slaughtered the final two hundred or so ordinary gang members.
At this point, aside from a tiny number of lucky ones who had escaped into the alleys, all of the more than 1,200 criminals had been wiped out.
The entire battle had taken no more than twenty minutes!
The defensive position, which had been covered in concrete fortifications and alloy roadblocks and looked stern and impregnable, was now a complete wreck. Craters, rubble, and alloy plates warped by tremendous impacts lay everywhere. Dismembered corpses and blood slurry were mixed throughout, smoke billowed, and absolute silence reigned.
The two stood wordlessly, looking toward the depths of Kasar Street Block.
Several minutes later.
The buzzing of numerous helicopters and drones gradually drew closer.
They could vaguely hear the rumble of some enormous metal object rolling over the road. Vast Source Energy auras rapidly approached, among them five exceptionally sharp auras speeding straight toward this place!
"They didn't flee. Instead, they gathered their forces and launched an attack. They're quite confident."
Jiang Xiao said with a beaming smile. It seemed the other side believed the two Electromagnetic Tanks had been tampered with in advance, which was why they had not attacked immediately?
Without the slightest fear, Jiang Xiao calmly walked forward along the main road.
He paid no attention to the Electromagnetic Tanks in the distance, which were as large as hills.
For heavy land equipment to hit powerful Martial Artists from a distance, efficient intelligent calibration and targeting were essential. Yet Origin Data was currently covering the area twenty to thirty meters around him in real time, making it impossible for long-range intelligent targeting to lock onto him!
As for manual calibration?
If the Electromagnetic Tanks had used manual calibration from start to finish, Xi Guang could have dismantled all fifteen of them from the beginning without even waiting for Jiang Xiao to arrive!
A massive cannon that could not hit its target was nothing more than an oversized club.
Looking at the numerous alien Martial Artist squads and the dense mechanized forces gradually appearing in the distance, no expression could be seen on Jiang Xiao's masked face.
With the slightest movement of his will, Origin Data silently spread outward.
A short while later, hundreds of drones entered the range affected by Jiang Xiao's Origin Data first.
Then they seemed to crash into an invisible wall. They abruptly lost power and plummeted to the ground, self-destructing uncontrollably!
Seeing this, the Tier 2 Elite of the Sin City Council commanding the force changed expression slightly.
"Electromagnetic interference??"
Jiang Xiao gave the other side no time to think. The Thunder Cannon Floating Cannon transformed into a streak of light with a roar and reached the sky above the Sin City Council legion in an instant!
A yellowish ray suddenly swept across the sky. Dozens of helicopters had no means of resisting, and more than ten exploded on the spot!
Jiang Xiao and Xi Guang took advantage of the opportunity to burst forward at tremendous speed, shooting straight toward the Sin City Council legion that had fallen into chaos. The aliens at the front who reacted quickly immediately opened fire, attempting to stop them.
Dense tongues of flame crossed in the air, interweaving with the booming roar of rapid-fire machine cannons!
