Crackle!
Compressed orbs with a flash of lightning quickly covered the area within a hundred meters. With the sound of mechanical components moving, cannons appeared one after another and fired at the army in all directions.
In an instant, everyone was thrown off their feet!
"Hide!" Backzas roared furiously. He hid behind a tree, thinking that he could block the bullets.
However, the next moment, a few large caliber incendiary armor-piercing bullets blasted this tree into half. Holes appeared in Backzas' armor, and he spat out blood. He screamed and fell to the ground. Clenching his teeth, he roared, "Shoot!"
Boom!
Thousands of rune crossbow bolts were fired at the same target. With the glow of runes, the densely packed bolts made one's scalp tingle.
Facing the overwhelming number of bolts, Han Xiao raised his finger slightly, and twelve Sonic Spheres flew out and surrounded him. At the same time, they spat out shockwaves and turned into a gust of wind. All the bolts were swept away and stabbed into the ground. However, none of them hit Han Xiao.
Han Xiao walked toward the City of Runes. The first batch of vanguard troops was drowned by endless cannon fire. Some were dead, and some were injured.
There were gunpowder cannons and electromagnetic cannons. The gunpowder cannons were loaded with special bullets, such as incendiary bullets, penetrating bullets, grenades, poison gas bullets, and so on. There were also the Volga brothers' enchanted bullets, such as frost bullets and oil bullets, which combined to create all kinds of negative statuses.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The forest collapsed under the crossfire, and an open road was flattened. There were broken trees everywhere, and flames were still burning.
Light rain was swallowed by the flames and turned into steam. Their vision became blurry, and the troops that arrived could only see a figure slowly moving forward in the mist.
Looking at the direction where the forest collapsed, they knew Han Xiao's location. He was like a giant python slithering through the grass.
The troops finally arrived. Tens of thousands of Rune Guards rushed forward under the command of the other officers. However, the five hundred meter radius around Han Xiao was practically a death zone. No matter how many people there were, once they got close, their tough armor would shatter in an instant. Bullets would pierce through their bodies, and they would fall down one by one. No one could stand still.
The heavily injured soldiers lay on the ground behind Han Xiao, their screams almost drowning out the sound of the cannon fire.
Han Xiao was not a bloodthirsty person. The level difference between him and these normal soldiers was too big. Since they only gave him 1 EXP, he was too lazy to finish them off. Those who were unlucky and got hit in the vitals could only blame themselves for their bad luck. Although Han Xiao was not a bloodthirsty person, he did not feel any pressure from this.
Killing a few people is nothing out of the ordinary. Back then, when I infiltrated the Germinal Organization …
Forget it, a real man doesn't talk about his past achievements.
Finally, these soldiers hesitated and did not dare to get close. Going forward like this would be suicide, and their sacrifice would be meaningless. They were scared.
This time, three hundred special soldiers walked out from the crowd. They were wearing black armor with ten times more complicated runes on them. Their eyes were bloodshot as if they were bearing a huge burden. These were the strongest warriors of the City of Runes — Black Armor Guards. These rune sets were the highest level equipment, and only trained ace warriors could use them. Furthermore, it would cause irreversible damage to the body. Only one Black Armor Guard out of fifty elite warriors could be chosen, and their combat power could fight one hundred enemies at a time.
Dang dang dang …
The group of black-armored guards charged into the rain of bullets, and their top-grade armor finally blocked the bullets. This gave hope to the City of Runes' army.
Enduring the pain, the three hundred people pulled out their rune swords and charged toward Han Xiao with the cold and blooded aura of elites.
Han Xiao's expression was calm. With a snap of his fingers, dozens of mechanical beasts charged out and restrained these elites. Then, he switched the electromagnetic cannons to personal control mode and fired them one by one. The armor piercing ability of electromagnetic energy was a few times higher, and it easily took out the Black Armor Guards.
Han Xiao's set of equipment was extremely effective as long as they did not encounter opponents of the same level. The key was that it was cheap and cost-effective.
The ace warriors of the City of Runes, the elites that the army had high hopes for, were taken out one after another before they could even cause a ripple. Looking at this scene, Backzath's heart sank.
The power of the aliens was beyond his expectations!
Deep regret echoed in his heart, but it was already too late. He would not realize that he had overestimated himself until he suffered a huge loss.
Backzath was rescued. He held his pierced legs and screamed, "Use the rune cannons!"
Four cannon-like engineering weapons were dragged out and aimed at Han Xiao from afar. These were the trump cards of the City of Runes. They were made from a rune technology weapon of an advanced civilization that was almost scrapped. The City of Runes had not completely grasped the technology, and the replica only had one percent of the power. However, it was enough to become their strongest weapon. There were only ten cannons in the entire City of Runes, and they took out four of them to deal with the aliens.
This was their last resort. Because they were too powerful, they were worried that they might kill the aliens. However, they could not care about that now. If they still had the mentality of capturing the aliens alive, Backzath could already see the end of their entire army.
Hum!
Four ballista cannons shot out huge energy bolts, carrying with them a sharp whistle, carrying with them their last hope.
"This thing is quite powerful."
Han Xiao looked to the side and clasped his hands together. Mechanical Force surged out, and a bubble-like energy shield covered a three-meter radius. It was slippery and colorful.
The energy bolts hit the bubble, but it was not as heavy as expected. Instead, they all brushed past the bubble and blasted a ten-meter-wide hole in the ground hundreds of meters away.
[Deflection Energy Field Generator]. This was a piece of equipment that Han Xiao had fused with [Advanced Energy Theory]. It could deflect pure energy attacks to a certain extent. This knowledge was also bought and learned during his nine months of employment.
"These four cannons are a bit of a threat to me. They should be able to take away about two hundred health points from me." Han Xiao estimated that the distance of the rune cannons was a bit far, beyond the range of the cannon. He nodded, and a set of special compressed orbs flew out and turned into mechanical parts in midair.
These mechanical parts combined together, and very soon, a medium-sized electromagnetic railgun landed beside him. It was as tall as two people.
Han Xiao sat on the control panel, quickly locked onto the target, and started to accumulate energy. Blinding electricity gathered crazily along the barrel of the cannon.
Hum!
A blue electric bolt crossed a distance of more than a thousand meters and instantly pierced through three rune cannons. All the obstacles along the way were melted.
This was a long-range cannon that Han Xiao rarely used. It was usually used by Launchers to deal damage. This medium-sized electromagnetic railgun was very powerful, and he had spent a lot of time to assemble it. It was used to deal with single targets, and every shot cost tens of Enas. This was a piece of equipment that was specifically used to deal astronomical damage with [Flaming Will]. In a certain employment mission, he had dealt with a void wandering monster with more than 50,000 health points for the local organization. Han Xiao had changed his fate and rolled five times the damage. He had also triggered the True Damage of [Lethal Shot] and dealt '14885' damage. It was still the highest damage record for an individual.
"What kind of power is this?" Backzas' lips turned white, and his face was filled with fear.
The aliens actually had such power. The tactics that they had imagined last night were completely useless. It was like a joke, an armchair strategist.
This cannon became the straw that broke the camel's back. The City of Runes' army finally had a mental breakdown. They threw away their armor and ran in all directions. Some of them even sat on the ground with blank faces. Their minds were blank, and they had even forgotten to run for their lives.
You have defeated an enemy army ten thousand times your size alone.
You have received [One Against the World] Achievement Talent.
"A pretty good Achievement Talent." Han Xiao nodded. Some talents could be obtained by completing some hidden challenges. They were also called Achievement Talents, and most of them had pretty good effects.
[One Against the World] was obviously a talent that was suitable for Han Xiao, and it was very useful for the players. As long as they had this talent, they would receive bonus attributes for free during a one-on-one battle. However, the method of obtaining it was not very friendly for the players. It was not as easy for the players to fight ten thousand people as it was for Han Xiao.
Looking at the defeated enemy, Han Xiao put away his weapon and continued walking toward the City of Runes.
He believed that this battle would be enough to make the City of Runes realize the difference between them.
…
The Lord of Runes did not sleep the entire night, anxiously waiting for the battle report.
Only half an hour had passed since the agreed time, and the battle report from the frontlines came back. The Lord of Runes was so shocked that he sat on the ground.
One person against ten thousand soldiers.
The army was completely defeated!
The target was unharmed!
