Close-Quarters Combat
The Tomahawk cruise missile, with a flight speed of approximately 900 km/h, is expected to arrive in 20 minutes.
Lu Li was unaware that he was heading towards the White House along the famous Pennsylvania Avenue.
Only by leveling this symbol of the Star Alliance Country can we truly say our mission is accomplished.
But things aren't that easy!
First, the 82nd Airborne Division parachuted into the city to reinforce the city's defenders.
Logically speaking, mere mortals shouldn't have any impact, but the Star Alliance Country army suddenly changed its tactics!
Soldiers could be seen popping out from the rooftops and windows of the surrounding buildings, firing sniper shots.
Bullets whistled through the air, occasionally striking the Earth Stone Dragon and sending Mars flying.
They only sniped and harassed from a distance on the flanks, never getting close.
Even fighter jets in the sky do the same, launching a salvo of missiles from afar before turning back and leaving.
The flying sword immediately took off to intercept, but it was only 20% faster than the opponent, and it took a long time to circle around before it could shoot it down.
Due to repeated disruptions, Lu Li's progress slowed down significantly.
He immediately understood the enemy's intention. "They're trying to stall me."
The Star Alliance Country was caught off guard, but as long as the situation drags on, the troops stationed in various states will continue to arrive, and they can wear down Lu Li.
At this moment, a paratrooper squad occupied the roof of the National Art Museum and began firing recoilless rifles at Lu Li.
Soldiers also opened fire to harass from other directions.
Meanwhile, the flying swords were engaged in combat with the more threatening fighter jets in the sky and had no time to deal with them, so the Earth Stone Dragon blocked the incoming artillery fire and bullets.
It was made of clay after all, and it was quickly torn apart and covered in gaps, requiring Lu Li to expend a lot of effort to restore it.
Seeing this, the soldiers' morale soared! Many civilians also cheered loudly!
On the rooftops of distant high-rise buildings and on boats in the Potomac River, many civilians gathered to watch the battle.
The bearded streamer "Bern" was also there, setting up his equipment to broadcast live.
At this moment, countless people were glued to their phones, cursing Lu Li to die as soon as possible.
Lu Li looked around, then calmly gave the puppet the following command:
"Two people at a time, wipe out those rats. The ones directly in front, I'll take care of them."
The 16 puppets immediately collapsed to the ground and crawled away in all directions like geckos.
They found the most suitable way to move, instantly darting to the enemy's face at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour.
"Die, monster!"
The soldiers had no way to escape and could only desperately pick up their weapons and fire wildly.
Light weapons could only leave slight scratches on the puppets; after only a few shots, the soldiers were pierced through the chest by metal hands.
The team on the roof of the National Art Museum watched helplessly as "Number 0" dug his fingers into the wall and quickly climbed up.
Gunfire erupted from the rooftop, but after a few short screams and the sound of bones breaking, silence fell again.
The puppets were carrying out efficient and bloody slaughter, but the Star Alliance Country Forces' on-site commander was beaming with delight, gripping his walkie-talkie and roaring:
"The super-powered terrorist has sent out all his men! Kill him now!!"
Since Lu Li's debut, all his offense and defense have been created by external forces; he has never lifted a finger.
This gives people the illusion that he looks like a "back row mage" and seems easy to kill.
The Star Alliance soldiers thought the same thing and immediately surrounded Lu Li relentlessly.
Even the two remaining tanks rushed over, determined to kill this super-powered terrorist.
Unexpectedly, Lu Li used his legs to stomp through the ground and charged into the crowd!
Because of his broken leg, Lu Li subconsciously disliked close combat.
But being unwilling doesn't mean you won't.
In fact, a martial artist's muscle strength is the most cost-effective source of energy!
Lu Li charged into the crowd, instantly knocking two soldiers flying twenty or thirty meters away.
He then swung his arms, whipping them out like whips, and with two loud bangs, sent two soldiers flying, spitting blood.
The remaining soldiers shouted and raised their guns to fire, but the bullets only grazed Lu Li's skin, leaving white marks, before bouncing off.
Lu Li burst into a movement speed of 50 meters per second, transforming into a black shadow that roared and leaped, sending soldiers flying everywhere.
A soldier holding a flamethrower aimed it at Lu Li and unleashed a 30-meter-long fire dragon.
Lu Li raised his hand and waved it, his divine power surging forth, enveloping the soldier and his three companions in a fiery dragon that turned them into burning figures.
Their piercing screams caused the remaining enemy to collapse instantly, and they fled in droves.
Only then did the two tanks arrive, their cannons pointed at them.
Lu Li calmly raised his hands, pointed with his two index fingers, and shot out two "Shangyang Sword" with two whooshing sounds.
Limited by its cultivation level, the power of the Six Meridian Divine Sword is only slightly greater than that of a heavy machine gun, so theoretically it shouldn't be able to do anything to a tank.
But the two dark blue lightsabers nimbly adjusted their angles and precisely pierced into the tank's cannon barrel!
The violent collision detonated the shells inside, and two loud explosions rang out almost simultaneously. The turrets of both tanks were blown to smithereens, turning into raging torches.
Just then, the flying sword descended to recharge its master. Lu Li stood amidst the billowing flames and smoke, gently brushing against them.
With a click, the bearded news anchor "Bern" pressed the shutter, capturing the moment.
Meanwhile, countless people were discussing in his live stream:
[Isn't this monster lame? How can it make such exaggerated movements?]
His movements... seemed to be some kind of fighting technique.
[It's a "whip punch," but I'm more curious about what the blue light he emitted was.]
Does nobody care that the Bai family mansion is about to fall?
At this moment, Lu Li had arrived at Baifu Square, where the classical white building stood before him.
However, many armed civilians blocked their way.
They shouted in unison:
"You executioner! You demon! You will never destroy the symbol of our great nation!"
"We won't let you succeed!"
This group included men, women, young and old; they were truly ordinary people.
However, there wasn't a single soldier left, and the entire army in the area had vanished...
Lu Li realized something was wrong, so he communicated with his flying swords in his mind, telling them to be on guard.
Seeing that Lu Li didn't move, the civilians became even more emboldened and shouted loudly to drive him away.
At that moment, Lu Li suddenly turned his head and looked south.
Ten kilometers away, five cruise missiles flew over at an extremely low altitude of 15 meters above the ground!
Flying so low and with buildings obscuring the view, it would have been difficult to spot, but fortunately, there was a flying sword keeping watch in the air.
Lu Li immediately sent his Divine Soul away from his body to meet him!
Upon closer inspection, these missiles are quite large, at least 6 meters long.
Lu Li dared not delay. He immediately used his mind to burn the electronic components inside the first missile, and then sent it flying towards the densely packed high-rise buildings.
With a deafening explosion, the National Convention Center Hotel, located on the banks of the Potomac River, was instantly reduced to ruins.
"It's not a nuclear bomb!"
Although it is extremely powerful, it is not a nuclear warhead.
Lu Li had a plan in mind, and then intercepted the second missile, using the same method to send it into the "National Art Museum" they had just encountered.
Just as they were about to continue, the remaining three missiles suddenly changed direction and headed straight for the puppets!
The cruise missile could be controlled from a distance, and seeing that it malfunctioned as it approached the Lu Li, it planned to eliminate his subordinates.
Just as the puppets had defeated armies from all directions and were on their way to join their master, three missiles were launched.
The missiles flew in three different directions. Lu Li only managed to intercept one; the remaining two were up to the puppet itself.
It's empty, only one chapter left.
