Chapter 309 The Power of the Technique, China's First Victory
"ah--!!!"
The piercing screams were clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone in the command center through their individual communicators.
The image of the soldier who was melted by the corrosive liquid, suffering extreme pain before his death, is like a brand, deeply etched in everyone's mind.
The command center fell into a deathly silence.
The jubilant atmosphere that had been rising just moments before due to the artillery barrage vanished completely.
Instead, there was a cold, suffocating fear.
"How...how could this happen?"
"Didn't the bestiary say they're afraid of fire? Why aren't napalm effective against them?!"
"Their corrosive liquid is terrifyingly powerful! Even special alloys can't withstand it!"
A young staff officer stared at the swarms of insects charging out of the inferno like a tidal wave, braving the artillery fire. His face was ashen, and his voice trembled.
"The information is incorrect! The information you provided, sir, is wrong!"
"Shut up!"
Lin Xiaotian suddenly turned around, his tiger-like eyes glaring intently at the young staff officer, the murderous intent in his eyes almost tangible.
"The battle has only just begun! Are you planning to desert?!"
"I..." The young staff officer trembled in fright and dared not speak again.
"Sir, your information is infallible!"
Lin Xiaotian took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down from the immense grief of losing his comrades.
His gaze returned to the large screen, his mind racing.
"They're not immune to fire! Look!"
He pointed to the screen, at the Corruptors bursting out of the sea of fire.
"Although their shells weren't burned through, they showed obvious signs of charring and brittleness! They were also moving much slower than when they first hatched!"
"This shows that high temperatures are effective against them! However, our conventional napalm bombs don't reach temperatures high enough!"
"And their corrosive liquid!" Lin Xiaotian switched to another close-up shot taken by a drone. "Their spray isn't endless! Look, those largest ones, after spraying more than ten times in a row, their energy sacs in their abdomens have clearly shriveled up!"
"They, too, have their limits!"
Lin Xiaotian's words were like a shot in the arm, calming the panicked hearts in the command center.
"Pass on my orders!" He grabbed the communicator, his voice regaining its steady and powerful tone.
"Heavy artillery battalion, switch to thermobaric weapons! Give them to those three damned mother spawns and launch an indiscriminate saturation attack! I want the temperature there to exceed three thousand degrees!"
"All combat units, immediately activate the 'high-voltage electric grid' at the forward positions! Use high-voltage electricity to slow down their advance!"
"Sniper! Get your aim in, and fire! Specifically, target those with the fullest energy sacs in their abdomens! Detonate their 'ammunition depots' ahead of time!"
"All warriors who have mastered the Armor-Piercing Thrust, prepare for a close-quarters counterattack!"
"Master Xuanyang!" Lin Xiaotian finally looked at Xuanyang beside him.
"It's our turn to make a move!"
Xuan Yang smiled slightly and bowed to him.
"Commander Lin, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
After saying that, his figure vanished from the command post in a flash.
The next second, his voice, amplified by a special technique, clearly echoed throughout the entire "Dragon Fang" position.
"All Kunlun disciples, heed my command!"
"Form the 'Three Powers Purification Array'!"
"Follow me, and vanquish evil!"
Behind the position, the nearly one hundred Kunlun disciples and "Dragon Fang" warriors who had successfully mastered the "Light of Purification" moved in response at the same time!
They quickly formed small triangular formations, in groups of three.
A faint, milky-white light shone from each person.
They gathered their not-so-strong spiritual power together through the operation of the formation!
"Buzz—!"
One after another, beams of holy light, dozens of times brighter than before, shot into the sky!
These beams of light converged in mid-air, forming a massive light curtain that covered the entire position!
The light curtain, like a huge golden shield, exuded a warm and sacred aura.
The green corrosive liquid that was being launched from the swarm of insects was instantly purified and melted away upon contact with this light barrier, just like snow meeting its nemesis, emitting a hissing blue smoke!
"It works! It really works!"
A burst of ecstatic cheers erupted from the command center!
The Light of Purification, this seemingly least directly lethal auxiliary technique, played a crucial role at this moment, like a stabilizing force!
It provided the strongest protective umbrella for the entire "Dragon Fang" position!
And at the same time that the light curtain was taking shape.
The front line.
Facing those Corruptors who had already broken through the artillery blockade and approached to within a hundred meters of the position.
Lin Xiaotian personally led a commando team composed of the most elite soldiers to meet them!
"roar--!!!"
Lin Xiaotian suddenly took a deep breath, his chest bulging out!
Then, he opened his mouth and let out a furious roar containing all his blood, energy, spirit, and will—he had already stepped halfway into the threshold of "Transformation of Strength"!
Soul Roar!
"Buzz—!!!"
A visible sound wave, like a shockwave, burst forth from his mouth!
The dozens of Corruptors at the very front suddenly froze!
Their tiny heads, their pitiful central nervous systems, were instantly turned into a mess by this overwhelming mental shock!
They didn't even have time to scream before they all collapsed to the ground, twitched a few times, and then lay still.
Sold out instantly!
"kill--!!!"
Look, the brigade commander, so majestic and awe-inspiring, the power of his roar is truly astounding!
All the "Dragon Fang" warriors were filled with excitement!
They followed suit and simultaneously unleashed a roar imbued with their own vital energy!
Although its power is far inferior to that of Lin Xiaotian.
However, the roars of thousands of people, coming together at the same time, also formed a powerful mental shockwave!
The entire swarm's charge was halted!
Countless "corruptors" fell into a brief state of dizziness and confusion.
It's now!
"Armor-Piercing Thorn!"
A glint of light flashed in Lin Xiaotian's eyes!
Instantly, the special alloy battle knife in his hand was covered with an invisible aura formed by rapidly vibrating internal energy!
He took a step forward, his figure like a ghost, instantly appearing before the largest of the "Corruptors".
Let's get started!
Knife fall!
"Pfft—!"
A soft sound, like a hot knife cutting through butter!
That "Corruptor," with its hard shell strong enough to withstand heavy machine gun bullets, is as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of this blade that contains the "Armor-Piercing Thrust" technique!
The entire, ugly head was cleanly and neatly severed off with a single stroke!
Green, blood-like liquid shot skyward!
"kill!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
All the "Dragon Fang" warriors were completely ignited by this scene, their fighting spirit burning within them!
They brandished their swords and daggers, which were also covered in internal energy, and charged into the still chaotic swarm of insects like tigers descending from the mountain!
A bloody melee between melee weapons and alien creatures has officially begun!
"Pfft!"
"Snap!"
With a swift stroke, limbs flew through the air!
Before the specialized, restrained, hard-shelled, armor-piercing spike.
These defenses that the "Corruptors" were so proud of have become utterly vulnerable!
The warriors of "Dragon Fang," after slaying their first monster and obtaining a real 1 point of personal merit, were like they had been injected with chicken blood, becoming more and more courageous in battle!
As one side gains and the other loses, the other gains.
The situation on the battlefield underwent a stunning reversal in just a few minutes!
The swarm of insects, like a tidal wave, was forcefully pushed back!
And, after paying a heavy price in casualties, they began to suffer a series of defeats!
After half an hour.
Finally, the last one, the "Corruptor," was beheaded by Lin Xiaotian with a single strike.
The first phase of the Battle of Changbai Mountain, the No. 1 Red War Zone, has come to an end.
The Huaxia "Dragon Fang" Special Operations Brigade, at the cost of 37 lives and 120 serious injuries, annihilated a total of 37,421 Calamity Beasts hatched from the fragment of the No. 1 "Leviathan"!
We have achieved the first overwhelming victory in the "natural disaster invasion" event worldwide!
When this exciting news reached the "Earth Alliance Headquarters"...
The whole world was in an uproar!
