222. Encircle the Point and Draw in the Reinforcements

Benjamin wasn't exaggerating; the manor did indeed have formidable fortifications.

Hidden trenches were deployed on all sides, and bunkers reinforced with steel plates were placed on higher ground, forming a three-dimensional crossfire.

The guards responsible for defending the manor are all elites, led by the one-eyed man Simon. Invaders will have to pay a heavy price to take this place.

But at this moment, the entire manor was filled with panic.

Hearing the chaotic screams coming from the radio, anyone would know that their main force had been annihilated.

Simon remained in the high bunker, his mind completely blank.

Who are the intruders? How many are there?

Can a guard unit wipe out 10 companies in 15 minutes?

And how could an Attack Helicopter flying in the sky be stolen?

He racked his brains but couldn't understand it; the enemy was already here!

Six flying swords were the first to arrive with a whoosh.

To conserve his energy, Lu Li only allowed them to attack at a speed of 200 meters per second, which was more than enough to deal with ordinary people.

Each flying sword chose a direction and shot out, moving nimbly like fish playing in water, before passing through the firing port and entering the defensive fortifications.

Gunfire erupted, followed by screams and the sounds of flesh being torn apart. A few seconds later, the fortified area was deathly silent.

Immediately afterwards, Number 0 arrived in the "Hink" with a roar.

Simon finally spotted a target he could retaliate against, and without a word, he picked up a Stinger missile and aimed it at it.

Before it could lock onto the target, the AT6 Missile mounted on the lower left of the helicopter was launched first, hurtling towards it with a violent exhaust flame.

Despite being a One-eyed Dragon, Simon reacted quickly, immediately discarding the "Stinger" and rushing out of the bunker.

Flames soared into the sky behind them, and the defensive fortifications, along with several guards who couldn't escape in time, were blown to pieces.

Simon was thrown a great distance by the shockwave, coughed up some dirt, and stood up.

The At-6 missile is Mach, and he managed to evade most of its power.

Immediately afterwards, two more violent explosions were heard overhead, and all the high points were destroyed by Attack Helicopter.

Earth and rocks came crashing down with a thunderous roar, and Simon scrambled away as fast as he could.

Once the dust settled, there was no more resistance in the manor.

Simon, covered in dust and panting, struggled to his feet, only to see a clean-cut and refreshing young man strolling towards him leisurely.

"It was that bitch's Asian friend! The attack was planned by the government!"

Simon's eyes widened, and he immediately recognized Lu Li.

Lu Li arrived at the manor at a leisurely pace.

First, he sharpened his gaze and destroyed the surveillance camera, then activated his "Heavenly Eye" to locate the drug lord.

"Underground."

Through the Heavenly Eye, Lu Li saw that there was a considerable space beneath the main building of the manor, nearly 500 square meters.

There were two men hiding inside; they must be the drug lords.

A number of non-ferrous metals were also vaguely detected, but they were not clearly visible through the more than 6-meter-thick layer of soil.

We don't need to worry about it for now; we still need to surround the enemy stronghold and hunt down reinforcements, and hunt down more souls.

At that moment, Simon walked over, hands raised high, shouting:

"Don't shoot! Let's talk!"

Lu Li stopped his creations with a single thought, wanting to hear what profound insights this person had to offer.

As he approached, Simon shouted:

"Easterner! I have already called for reinforcements. Ten thousand soldiers will soon surround this place. Your wisest course of action now is to leave immediately!"

Hearing this, Lu Li smiled gently and said, "I understand. Thank you for reminding me. Goodbye."

"Wait a moment..."

Simon completely failed to grasp the other person's thought process; why did they seem so happy?

He wanted to say something more, but A'da's heavy machine gun fired three consecutive bursts, turning him into a pile of mangled flesh.

"Let's get ready to welcome our guests."

Lu Li summoned the flying swords and replenished each of them with ten percent of their mental energy.

At the same time, have "Number 0" pilot the helicopter land on the helipad.

There's ammunition and aviation fuel in the hangar; we can replenish our supplies.

However, he still needed to consult Aurora, Lu Li immediately made a video call.

The other party, who was also waiting anxiously, immediately answered the call and asked a series of questions:

[How's the situation? Have they gotten rid of Benjamin?]

Lu Li held up his phone and took pictures of the surroundings, saying:

"Having just captured the manor, Benjamin has taken refuge in the underground safe room. His reinforcements are arriving soon; he's teaching me how to load ammunition onto the Attack Helicopter."

[Okay, okay! Hmm... First, insert the rocket launcher into the launch chamber with the warhead facing outwards; reloading the machine gun requires removing the side armor plates...]

Aurora gave a concise explanation.

With each word she spoke, the two puppets performed the corresponding action, their movements concise and more efficient than any real machine.

Taking advantage of this break, Lu Li also replenished the mental energy of each of the two puppets by 10%.

After fighting for so long, both of them have sustained some damage.

Especially A'da, whose face was scarred half a centimeter deep by a 12.7mm tungsten core bullet.

At this moment, having exhausted his soul and spirit, the scar slowly healed, just like when the Kunlun Mirror healed itself.

Once the helicopter was fully loaded, Lu Li's creations had all returned to normal.

Meanwhile, the drug lord's first reinforcements arrived.

~~~~~~~~~~~

The situation was urgent, Benjamin mobilized all available armed forces to come to the rescue.

But the first to arrive were... a group of armed civilians.

These were all opium growers from the surrounding area, numbering over a thousand. Armed with both long and short firearms, they looked indignant.

"Mr. Benjamin has been subjected to a shameless attack! It must have been done by government agents!"

"Those wretched bloodsuckers! Mr. Benjamin is such a good man! We must protect him!"

The crowd raised their weapons and shouted loudly, vowing to protect their benefactors, their morale soaring.

But as they walked, they were blocked by Number 0 and A'da.

Upon seeing the two strangely dressed individuals, the crowd shouted, "Who are you?! What do you want?!"

Number 0 growled hoarsely, "Leave, or die!"

"You're the one who'll die! You bastard!"

The group of people raised their guns and opened fire on the two puppets, the bullets raining down like a storm, causing everything around them to explode.

Little did they know that the moment the gun fired, they also shattered their only chance to survive.

Number 0 and A'da immediately took up their heavy machine guns and retaliated. A terrifying hail of bullets swept through the crowd, exploding into a series of bloody and fleshy pieces.

A few minutes later, the first wave of reinforcements was wiped out, without giving the enemy a chance to beg for mercy.

Lu Li saw all of this through his mental perception, simply shrugged, and ordered the puppet to return.

Flying Sword discovered that an elite drug lord force of 2,000 men was not far away.

Benjamin's elite armed forces numbered in the tens of thousands, and the force that arrived was responsible for guarding the opium factory.

Lu Li had two puppets pilot the helicopter into flight. This time, it was A'da who learned how to fly it, while Number 0 simply carried a heavy machine gun into the troop compartment as an additional firing point.

Meanwhile, Lu Li ordered the "Shadow Painter Sword" to be specifically responsible for protecting the helicopter.

Although Attack Helicopter have powerful firepower, they are too vulnerable.

Not only does Blue Star possess man-portable air defense missiles, but flying swords from other worlds also pose a significant threat.

Lu Li felt that appropriate protective measures were necessary, and this would be a good opportunity to put them into practice in the upcoming battle.
