Chapter 431
Challenge Qualification
Just as Said was about to catch his breath, the attack mode of the unmanned infantry fighting vehicle in the center of the square suddenly changed.
The cannon on the roof began to tilt upwards, and then the entire weapon station began to spin rapidly, like a runaway top spinning in place.
Bang bang bang bang!
As the small cannon barrel rotated, it continuously fired grenades in all directions. The grenades were thrown into the air and then fell back down like raindrops with white trails of smoke.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!
Explosions rang out continuously, and the falling small grenades burst into flames on the ground.
The area in front of the square was engulfed in a barrage of explosions within seconds.
Qi Yuzhe cowered behind cover, his voice carrying through the roar of the explosion, "What the hell is this now? Why is it spinning?"
"I don't know either!" Demulan, who had been calmly aiming, was also somewhat taken aback, as she had never seen this scene before.
"These things sometimes just act up! But as soon as those four task force members die, this unmanned vehicle will self-destruct!"
"Damn it! How many minutes have passed? When will it end?" Qi Yuzhe cursed angrily, looking up at the numbers above his head.
10:00, not a single second has passed.
"Damn it? The watch is broken and you don't even know to fix it?" This number made Qi Yuzhe laugh.
Demulan glanced up at the number, then looked back at the scope. "Looks like in the game, it's not the boss fight yet. We have to defeat the speed boosters before we can challenge Anderson."
Han Che gritted his teeth and shouted, "Raven! Follow me and take care of the remaining two as quickly as possible!"
After saying that, he rushed out of the cover and moved quickly towards Reese's direction while bending over.
Qi Yuzhe acted simultaneously, and the two of them flanked from the left and right sides at the same time.
At this moment, Reese was still locked in combat with the two task force members. His armor was riddled with bullet holes of all sizes, and in some places it was completely shattered.
His skin and muscles were covered with wounds and burn marks.
But he continued firing the S12K, the shotgun shells hitting the transparent gun shield and creating large sparks, but they couldn't penetrate the shield's protection.
Despite such a disadvantage, he single-handedly suppressed the offensive of two special operations team members.
While the two special operations team members were desperately blocking the shotgun shells from the front with their gun shields, Han Che and Raven flanked Reis from the left and right.
Just then, unmanned combat vehicles also sped towards this side, unleashing a barrage of grenades as if they were completely unafraid of accidentally injuring the task force members.
"Forget about the driverless car! Kill those two first!" Han Che roared.
The two task force members clearly felt the pressure from both sides. They tried to retreat and create distance, but the firepower from Reis in front was too intense, preventing them from removing their protective gear and running.
With the pressure on Reese reduced, he charged forward with his shotgun in hand, slamming his elbow into the gun shield.
Bang! Demulan fired another sniper shot!
Boom boom boom boom!
Another volley of grenades exploded, flames shooting into the sky amidst the smoke.
As the smoke cleared, two task force members were found lying on the ground.
Reis elbowed one of the men's gun shields, sending him flying and losing his balance. Qi Yuzhe circled around from the side and seized the opening to fire a finishing shot. The bullet passed through the man's neck and killed him instantly.
Another member of the task force tried to retreat upon seeing this, but Han Che had already blocked his escape route.
Han Che didn't aim at his frontal gun and shield, but instead aimed at his exposed side ribs the moment he turned around.
Two Ash bullets pierced through the ribs on the side of the chest and crossed the entire chest cavity.
The special forces member rolled to the ground, struggling as Han Che fired another shot at him, his head exploding on the ground like a ripe watermelon.
Some red and white material splattered and landed with a thud at Reis's feet.
Seeing this, Reese grinned and exclaimed, "Great gun!" Then he stood there, panting heavily, supporting his knees. "Damn, I'm exhausted."
The series of impacts had exhausted Reis's strength, and blood was flowing down the curve of his arm, but apart from that, he was completely unharmed.
Han Che's eyelids twitched as he looked at Reis, who was covered in blood. This guy was riddled with bullet holes, yet he was only complaining of being tired?
Wow, that's some serious blood!
Meanwhile, the unmanned vehicle in the center of the map was still spinning, its cannon constantly spraying grenades, while flames continued to rise and explosions continued to erupt all around.
"Why hasn't this guy self-destructed yet?" Han Che asked the person next to him.
"I don't know..." Qi Yuzhe shook his head and answered, his eyes fixed on the driverless car.
After a short while, the unmanned infantry fighting vehicle began to slow down its rotation speed, and the firing rate of its cannon also decreased.
The gun barrel went from a rapidly spinning, blurry shadow to a clear image until it came to a complete stop rotating.
Han Che then suddenly realized that Anderson, who had just disappeared, had somehow reappeared directly above the driverless car, hovering in mid-air.
His body was about four or five meters above the ground, and the hem of his green striped suit hung down naturally while he was suspended in mid-air, without any visible support or attachment.
He hovered in mid-air with his head down, surveying the people standing on the ground. He clapped his hands together lightly, making a few rhythmic applause sounds. "Well done, everyone."
His voice came down from above, as if praising their performance, "That's right, we need to unite, unite!"
His body then slowly descended, landing on the roof of the infantry fighting vehicle that had stopped rotating.
When his feet touched the roof of the vehicle, the armored vehicle shuddered violently, and then the entire vehicle, as if short-circuited, emitted sparks and began to disintegrate from the inside.
The metal shell cracked along the seam into fragments, eventually scattering on the ground as a uniform layer of ash, leaving only a metal skeleton burning with embers.
Anderson stepped off the burning driverless car and onto the black ground.
"Congratulations, you've unlocked the right to challenge me!"
Anderson smiled and his gaze swept over everyone present.
"Ten minutes to go!" He raised his finger and pointed to the countdown numbers in the air.
The numbers started jumping the moment Anderson raised his hand; the number that was originally stuck at 10:00 became 9:59.
Anderson's smile grew even brighter the moment the numbers started to jump, and his voice echoed in the empty space.
"Now, I'm in charge here!"
