CHAPTER 348: CHAPTER 350: TOTAL ANNIHILATION!

At this moment, the entire perimeter of Hengye District seemed to turn into an earthly hell, draped with a layer of blood, with remnants of corpses scattered everywhere, and screams echoing without end.

Originally, there were more than forty tanks and armored vehicles combined, but now only a mere nine remain operational.

Among them, two are severely damaged, having lost their combat capabilities, yet fortunately, their propulsion systems are intact.

Compared to armored vehicles, the personnel losses are even heavier; initially numbering over nine hundred, the military warriors lost more than half in the sudden turn of Ji Ruxue’s attack.

Especially the warriors carrying rocket launchers, sniper rifles, and using mortars, none survived; not a single one was spared.

As for the remaining military warriors, half of them are still suffering from varying degrees of injuries, lying on the ground, emitting painful groans, their condition worsening rapidly.

Such devastation frightened the commanding officer.

After just one clash, suffering such huge losses, continuing to fight would lead to total annihilation.

"Retreat now! Retreat!"

The walkie-talkie transmitted the officer’s desperate shout.

The received order relieved the warriors, and they did not hesitate, frantically retreating while taking their injured comrades.

Rumble～

The two tanks spewing black smoke and seven armored cars, under the escort of numerous soldiers, drove messily outside Hengye District.

"Damn it, they’re trying to escape!"

Watching the battlefield, Zhao Lin shouted in surprise.

She had no mercy for these military humans who tried to destroy Hengye District and also her earlier.

Her compassion is for the entire human race, not for a few who threaten her; she is no saint!

Beside her, Ji Ruxue nodded breathlessly, wiping sweat off her forehead, remaining silent.

The exhaustion from two all-out explosions was tremendous for her, especially given her present small stature.

According to her estimate, her current frame can barely endure two full-power bursts; using a third might damage both her body and spirit.

Seeing humans retreat, Lu Chuan, who had been waiting for this opportunity, naturally wouldn’t let them succeed; if they dare invade, they must be ready for total destruction.

Instantly, Corpse Puppets hidden throughout Hengye District charged out.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground trembled as Da Pang and other Corpse Puppets quickly stormed towards the district’s entrance.

"Counterattack! Counterattack!"

Seeing this, the officer outside the district reluctantly ordered the surviving troops.

Bang bang bang～

Some soldiers still capable of fighting had to let go of their comrades, grabbing their rifles and firing at Da Pang and other Corpse Puppets.

However, those bullets, for the Tank Type zombies like Da Pang and Er Pang in the front, felt like mere tickling; apart from sparking a little, there was no effect.

Boom!

At this moment, Corpse Puppets like Da Pang and Er Pang resembled human tanks crashing into the crowd.

Ah～

Screams echoed immediately, and amidst the blood mist, many military warriors’ bodies were directly flung, crashing heavily against the nearby armored cars and tanks.

Meanwhile, Corpse Puppets like Lightning One also striked quickly, harvesting lives within the crowd with extreme speed.

"Kill!"

At this time, a dozen Evolvers in the army roared angrily, jumped out, and attacked the Corpse Puppets.

Instantly, Spiritual Light surged from these Evolvers.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Unexpectedly, before these Evolvers engaged the Corpse Puppets, molten Fireballs rained down from the air, exploding directly.

"Ah～"

The Evolvers simultaneously let out a scream, bodies shattering in the flames, leaving charred remains.

"Hm, mere Tier 3 Evolvers dare to embarrass themselves, clueless fools!"

Lu Chuan scoffed mentally, commanding Flame One to descend while his hand continued its actions, waving and releasing hundreds of Fire Serpents, which exploded amidst the retreating human troops.

In just a moment, from the few hundred troops that remained, only less than a hundred survived under Lu Chuan’s assault.

And these people had completely lost their fighting spirit, fleeing wildly.

Rumble～

During the battle, even the remaining few armored cars and tanks were toppled by Tyrant One and other zombies, losing their attacking power.

Especially Er Pang, with fists as large as a grinding plate, crushed armored car after armored car, soldiers inside either spat blood to death or were squeezed into pulp.

The chase continued, as Lu Chuan decided not to spare them.

Soon, the pursued military warriors were all killed by the Corpse Puppets, leaving only a few scattered ones, mostly the Evolvers leading the fleeing survivors.

A minute later, unsurprisingly, the leading Evolvers guided Lu Chuan to the military’s command post.

At this moment, the temporary command post had already perceived the threat; over a hundred people, including the commander, were preparing for withdrawal, while on the square, three helicopters and seven military vehicles were starting up.

"This is bad, quickly leave!"

The commander aboard the helicopter shouted as he saw the scene behind them.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

Swish swish swish～

Lightning One and other Agile Type Corpse Puppets rushed forward, quickly tearing the air with steel claws, cutting cold blade lights.

Puff～

A dozen military warriors yet to board the vehicles had their heads fly off, blood gushing like fountains from their necks.

Next, Da Pang and other Corpse Puppets arrived, fists howled, smashing into the military vehicles.

Rumble～

Loud explosions echoed as those soldiers in trucks exploded in blood mist, with chunks of flesh scattering, even the front driver, under violent shaking, spat blood and died.

Within a single encounter, the temporary command post’s personnel was mostly lost, leaving only the upper army officers and crew aboard the three helicopters.

Within that brief moment, the three helicopters gained altitude, starting to escape in three different directions to avoid Lu Chuan’s attack.

"Naive!"

Seeing this, Lu Chuan sneered, his mind controlling Flame One to instantly evolve into three Fire Serpents, which roared and lunged towards the helicopters.

Though highly skilled, the helicopter pilots were no match for the agile airborne Fire Serpents, which pursued them instantly, about to collide.

"Damn Corpse King!"

Onboard one helicopter, the commander watched the approaching Fire Serpents with hatred.

"Sir, I’ll get you out first!"

At this moment, the Evolver guarding the commander suddenly spoke, ignoring his objections, and embraced him; a flash of silver light and they disappeared inside the helicopter.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The next moment, the three helicopters exploded, crashing down.
