154: ambush

Night fell, and the sky darkened, as if a giant figure had appeared in the Universe, blocking the sunlight.

The hazy moon, like a wide-open eye, was observing the earth.

Somewhere along the Yangtze River outside Shangqing City.

Under the cover of night, it seemed peaceful here.

But occasionally, one could see waves surging skyward, with huge shadows rolling and crashing in the river.

Sometimes, even beast-like roars could be heard from the river.

In the dense forests along both banks of the Yangtze River, many figures were already hidden. Even the usually bloodthirsty Mutated Creatures seemed to sense something was amiss and had left this mountain forest.

Everyone remained motionless, watching their surroundings, awaiting orders.

In the distance, two majestic warships were concealed between narrow mountain valleys, with all signals turned off, waiting silently.

It could be said that a net had already been cast here.

As morning arrived.

Lin Fei and Chen Xu arrived at the Yangtze River bank, which was the agreed-upon location.

The next moment, Lin Fei's phone rang.

Lin Fei suppressed his excitement and answered the call.

"Mr. Lin Fei, you have breached the contract."

"Whether you brought the National Security Bureau or the navy, I don't care, but you didn't bring the most important Giant Octopus."

"Mr. Lin Fei, I believe a person must first have a home before they are qualified to have a country, and you are personally destroying your own family."

On the other end of the phone, a cold voice, like a knife, pierced Lin Fei's heart.

"No, no, no, I brought Brother Octopus, but he's not here. I haven't even seen my parents yet, how could I possibly bring Brother Octopus here?!"

Lin Fei recalled what the National Security agents had told him earlier and calmed down, saying.

"Remember your words, otherwise, not only your parents, but also your relatives and friends, we will capture them one by one and kill them in front of you!"

The other end of the phone fell silent for a moment, then rang again with a warning, and hung up.

Lin Fei and Chen Xu exchanged glances, both a little surprised. Did the other party believe them?

This was completely beyond their expectations.

The next moment, countless electromagnetic warheads appeared, shooting into the dense forests on both sides of the Yangtze River.

"Enemy attack!"

The National Security and military personnel hidden in the dark shouted.

The silent capability of the electromagnetic rifles made them realize the enemy attack only after seeing their comrades injured.

"Launch drones over there, find them!"

A group of National Security personnel calculated the direction of the incoming shots based on the trajectory and angle.

However, the drones flew over but found nothing.

The next moment, electromagnetic warheads destroyed the drones.

"Artillery strike!"

Attack drones took off, launching missile attacks towards the guessed positions!

However, a green Laser Beam was fired, prematurely detonating the missiles.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion sounded, and flames shot into the sky.

The next moment, numerous attack drones took off, locking onto the area around the Laser Beam's launch position and firing dozens of missiles!

This was a true saturation bombardment! The continuous explosions almost destroyed this dense forest!

"Holy crap! What fierce firepower!"

Lin Fei and Chen Xu were shocked, unaware that such astonishing firepower had been deployed here.

The warships in the distance were also rapidly approaching, and attack drones rose from the warships, firing towards this area!

However, all those missiles were prematurely detonated by the Laser Beam.

The supersonic attack speed of the missiles was meaningless in the face of light-speed strikes; they could only seek a Breakthrough through sheer numbers.

But this time, in an unmanned area, dozens of green Laser Beams suddenly shot out, intercepting all the missiles. Explosions rang out in rapid succession, and fire covered a section of the sky.

The next moment, more than a dozen battle armors with a futuristic sci-fi aesthetic suddenly appeared from the empty air on both banks.

Dozens of green Laser Beams shot over, like an indestructible battle saber sweeping across, slicing down the drones one by one.

This was a terrifying sight!

One by one, battle armors, seemingly from a hundred years into the future, shot out green lasers and actively charged forward, destroying all the drones in the sky!

"This..."

Lin Fei was dumbfounded.

"The technological gap is too great! The situation is not good, we need to leave! The military is about to carpet bomb the area!"

At this moment, Old Man Zhang's voice rang in their ears. Seeing the unfavorable situation, he had crept over and was taking the two of them away.

Lin Fei's heart tensed. At this moment, he could only hope that the country could suppress these Mysterious Organizations and rescue his parents.

Lin Fei and Chen Xu quickly fled with Old Man Zhang.

Old Man Zhang was experienced and seasoned. He led Lin Fei and Chen Xu, avoiding the direct battlefield and heading away into the distance.

The battle armors on both sides of the Yangtze River were already wreaking havoc. Without the drone's suppressive fire, both the National Security Bureau and the military were being slaughtered and routed in front of the Mysterious Organization's battle armors.

"You trash of the old era, with the junk you hold in your hands, who gave you the courage to ambush us?"

One battle armor sneered, using its astonishing speed. Wielding the battle saber in its hand, it instantly cut several Soldiers in half at the waist!

"Bastard!"

The eyes of several Soldiers nearby turned red. They threw a handful of grenades, and as one of them detonated, the area exploded with a roar. The bursting shrapnel pierced through the Soldier himself.

However, as the black smoke dissipated, the pure silver-white battle armor was completely undamaged, still standing there, letting out a cold laugh: "Just a few grenades, they can't even break my force field defense."

The Soldier could only fall down in despair.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the temporary command post was also very tense.

No one knew that the other side had actually sent out a full thirty battle armors this time. The large number of drones deployed earlier had all been quickly destroyed by the enemy.

"Quick, tell everyone to retreat!"

A military leader's eyes were bloodshot. Watching his Soldiers being slaughtered made him furious enough to kill.

"The enemy's speed is too fast! The Soldiers won't be able to retreat! Just carpet bomb the area!"

A leader from the National Security Bureau said coldly.

"You want to sacrifice them, impossible!"

The military leader's eyes turned red with anger, and he directly rejected his idea.

However, the entire battlefield was already a one-sided affair.

Even the well-equipped National Security personnel, with anti-material sniper rifles, individual rocket launchers, and so on, failed to break through the battle armor's force field defense.

"Report, requesting artillery coverage!"

"We can't win, quickly give me artillery coverage, I'll hold back these bastards! If you don't carpet bomb now, I'll die for nothing!"

Just then, one communication after another rang in the command post, making the military leader tremble.

Finally, he closed his eyes and agreed, transmitting the order.

Twenty kilometers away, howitzers and rocket launchers were already arrayed.

"Rumble!"

The next moment, the sky itself shook, and countless shells rained down.

These were rockets and shells, and their scale was incomparable to the earlier drones. A vast, dark mass overwhelmed the sky and fell.

The entire dense forest was completely destroyed. Flames shot into the sky, and countless shockwaves spread out. Trees were snapped, and even lifted into the air by the shockwaves.

"Not good!"

Facing such an attack, even the Mysterious Organization members inside the battle armors panicked.

This firepower was too intense; it was the kind of firepower usually reserved for a full-scale war, now all unleashed on this small dense forest!

They immediately activated their battle armors' 100% mode, hoping to escape.

However, the military had long calculated their speed. As a last resort prepared just in case, the firepower was already severely excessive.

The Soldiers and National Security personnel, meanwhile, showed a hint of a smile, then lay down, seeking cover. While happy that these Mysterious Organization members couldn't escape, they felt they might still be able to save themselves.

"Rumble!"

Terrifying roars, like thunder descending from the heavens, engulfed all the dense forests along both banks of the Yangtze River, destroying everything! The earth itself trembled!

The terrifying artillery barrage lasted a full ten minutes before it finally stopped.

Astonishing smoke filled the air, shrouding the sky.

"You good-for-nothing Rabbit Country!"

In the distance, a figure stood there, quietly watching the scene. His silver hair fluttered in the wind, and his eyes revealed killing intent.

These thirty battle armors, though not the latest main battle armors, were definitely a powerful force, yet they were lost here like this.

Even he had not received intelligence this time about Rabbit Country secretly preparing such heavy firepower.

It seemed that the people planted in the military had been exposed.

"Sir?"

Several men stood beside the Silver-haired Man.

"Kill them. Lin Fei didn't bring the Giant Octopus at all."

The Silver-haired Man finished speaking, then turned and left.

"Yes!"

The men respectfully replied, and electromagnetic weapons silently fired, killing the bound individuals nearby, then they turned and followed the Silver-haired Man.
