316. Three Hundred Units
New Orleans, located at the mouth of the Mississippi River, is also the second largest seaport in the Star Alliance Country.
The port handles approximately 100 million tons of cargo annually and is also a bustling metropolis.
The Spiritual Vein that Lu Li observed through "qi observation" was located in a park in the North District of the city.
This park has a 150-year history and is a popular place for locals to relax.
But at that moment, three Apache Attack Helicopter roared in!
The wind pressure generated by the propeller made the oak branches dance wildly.
One puppet after another jumped down, and Lu Li quickly followed suit.
The people in the park had already fled, with only a few daring individuals remaining to take photos from a distance, and some even calling the police.
The police arrived quickly, but they kept their positions at a distance and didn't approach the front at all.
A group of people watched as Lu Li walked back and forth in the park, clearly searching for something.
He was trying to pinpoint the location of the Spiritual Vein, but this Spiritual Vein was buried extremely deep underground, and the fluctuations it emitted were barely perceptible, making it very difficult to locate.
While he was busy, more than a dozen aerial photography drones flew overhead one after another.
Besides major television stations, many independent media practitioners also want to take advantage of this rare opportunity to gain a surge in traffic.
From a distance, Lu Li and his group didn't seem particularly special, nor were they carrying any long spears, so they didn't appear to be difficult to deal with.
A white police officer carrying an M4 rifle couldn't help but say:
"A yellow-skinned monkey, a bunch of weirdos in old-fashioned suits... Are we just going to sit here and do nothing?"
Several young officers showed signs of interest, and the sheriff beside them shouted:
"These freaks wiped out an entire National Guard! All of you better stay put! The military will handle it!"
Before the words were even finished, a tremendous roar of engines suddenly echoed through the sky!
Three A-10 attack aircraft formed a formation and roared across the sky!
Upon seeing that it was their own air force, the Star Alliance Country citizens on the ground waved and cheered:
"It's 'Warthog'! The tank killer!"
"Charge! Pilots! Let the thugs see the hand of God's justice!"
The people of the Star Alliance Country were filled with pride and trust in their own air force. They stared intently at Lu Li and his group, ready to witness the annihilation of this group of terrorists!
Drones from all sides also pointed their cameras at the scene, and countless live streamers were talking animatedly in their broadcast rooms, ready to enjoy the spectacle.
The three A-10 attack aircraft did not disappoint the audience, immediately diving towards Lu Li in a triangular formation.
The "Avenger" Heavy Revolver Cannon under the nose of the aircraft was spinning rapidly and firing fiercely!
Amidst the ear-piercing noise of the electric drill drilling into the wall, three machine guns unleashed a dense barrage of 30mm shells, forming a terrifying barrage that whistled through the air!
This barrage of firepower was enough to turn a tank into a sieve, extremely fierce, but Lu Li didn't take it seriously.
The two sides were 3 kilometers apart, and the shells would take 4 seconds to hit each other.
The Blood Exchange martial artist has a burst speed of 50 meters per second!
With a sudden burst of strength, Lu Li left two deep footprints and moved nearly a hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
Once the machine gun fire comes in, it will be futile to blow up the ground and trees.
Witnessing this scene, many onlookers exclaimed in surprise:
"What the hell is this?! Did you guys see that?!"
"That person... instantly accelerated into a Ferrari!"
The attack aircraft pilot was equally surprised, but being a soldier, he quickly regained his composure.
The formation commander shouted:
[Attack again! Fire missiles while using the machine gun!]
[Received! Maverick missiles are ready!]
After circling once, the three attack aircraft dove down again in a triangular formation.
This time, six Maverick air-to-ground missiles detached from their undermount racks and attacked, spewing intense plumes of exhaust.
Then, they used the machine gun's fire control system to lock onto Lu Li.
But just as they were about to fire, the wingman on the left suddenly exclaimed, "There's an anomaly at 270 degrees!"
Several flashes of cold light appeared, revealing figures—flying swords!
Lu Li wouldn't let the enemy attack him, so he raised his hand and unleashed the three swords: Breaking Mountain, Painting Shadow, and Azure Frost.
In the vast expanse of the sky, even Mach speeds don't seem that fast.
All three elite pilots spotted the flying sword with their naked eyes!
"What the hell is that? Quick, use decoy grenades!"
The formation commander, thinking it was an anti-aircraft missile, quickly flipped the switch, and a large number of infrared decoy flares were sprayed out with a "bang bang bang".
The three flying swords completely ignored the glowing fireworks and headed straight for the plane.
The pilot quickly maneuvered the fighter jet to evade, but the A-10 was only Mach and its maneuverability was completely outmatched by the fish-like flying sword. It was overtaken in two or three seconds.
The Mountain Breaker Sword cleaved the first aircraft in two, causing it to explode in mid-air into a giant fireball.
The "Azure Frost Sword" transformed into a cold light, slashing back and forth, slicing the second plane into several pieces in mid-air, like potatoes.
Perhaps because it didn't hit any vital organs, it didn't explode.
Meanwhile, the Shadow Painter Sword activated "Yuan Magnetic Acceleration"!
The sword, wrapped in a "Mental Energy Coil," exploded at four times the Mach, rammed into the nose of the machine, and then emerged from the tail, leaving behind a spectacular explosion.
The attack aircraft formation was wiped out instantly, and the Maverick air-to-ground missiles fired before their demise became daggers piercing their own side.
As soon as the missile entered the 500-meter radius of the Lu Li, countless sparks flew out, and the guidance system malfunctioned on the spot.
With another mental gesture, Lu Li changed the direction of the six missiles and launched them at the tall buildings not far away.
With deafening roars, massive bursts of fire and smoke erupted, and a building was struck in its load-bearing structure, collapsing instantly.
The police and civilians watching instinctively crouched down, covering their heads, to avoid the falling debris and rubble.
At the same time, a look of utter disbelief appeared on his face:
What happened to 'Warthog'? Why did the missile suddenly change direction?
"How could that yellow-skinned terrorist have the speed of a race car?!"
No one understood what was happening, but then something even more shocking occurred.
The wreckage of the second fighter jet plummeted from the sky, crashing towards Lu Li's location.
Many people expected him to be crushed to death, but Lu Li casually waved his hand, and the debris in the air was pushed aside by an invisible force, falling back towards the crowd of onlookers.
The crowd screamed and dodged, but the ammunition remaining on the wreckage exploded upon impact, instantly tearing countless people apart.
The scene was one of utter devastation, filled with cries of pain and utter chaos.
Lu Li paid no attention and continued to locate the "Spiritual Vein".
The approximate location has been determined; it's really just a matter of time.
After repeated comparisons, the exact location of the highest concentration of spiritual energy, which is also the precise point of the Spiritual Vein, was finally determined to be the fountain in the park.
Lu Li immediately summoned the Kunlun Mirror and began to extract the essence.
The Spiritual Vein was buried exceptionally deep, and he poured seventy percent of his mind into the magical artifact to aid it.
Even so, the Kunlun Mirror still found it extremely difficult to extract the essence.
The mirror vibrated violently, and the five nicks on it were about to burst open.
Just when he was about to give up, he finally managed to pull out a flash of inspiration!
The ground shook beneath their feet; surely some clever ideas were at play.
Lu Li had a premonition, but not many, that it would likely have some impact on the environment.
On a sudden impulse, he instructed the puppet to start the helicopter and prepare to escape...
The next second, a giant blue wave burst through the ground and surged hundreds of meters into the air!
In that instant, all electronic devices within a 5-kilometer radius malfunctioned simultaneously.
Sparks flew from the Attack Helicopter, its engine stopped working, and its propeller ceased spinning.
This was likely due to interference from a spiritual force.
Fortunately, the Kunlun Mirror, like a whale sucking in water, quickly swallowed and sealed away the spiritual energy, and everything returned to normal.
Lu Li quickly checked the inventory, his face lighting up with joy. "300 units!!!"
