Chapter 680 Wrong Target
"stop!"
Just as the red-capped, white-spotted mushrooms sprouted, a sharp shout came from afar.
However, Bai Mianmian seemed not to hear, her expression remained unchanged, and her hand that triggered the mushroom explosion did not stop for a moment.
With a gentle flick of her slender fingers, the mushroom growing in the air suddenly exploded, "Boom!"
Blood splattered everywhere, and the superhuman who was in stealth mode was forced to reveal himself instantly, but his condition was far from good.
Half of his head was gone; he was dead beyond any hope of survival.
"Ah!" A piercing scream rang out.
Accompanied by a group of soldiers, Sun Yuxin arrived here, but was terrified by the bloody scene. She buried her face in Bao Zhiyuan's chest, holding him tightly and refusing to let go.
Her scream was like a signal, and ninety percent of the onlookers suddenly sprang into action, attacking Bai Mianmian and her companions.
The remaining onlookers' expressions changed drastically, and they all retreated and left.
This is clearly a setup to kill them and silence them. If they continue to stay here, they are simply courting death.
Zhang Weitao's expression hardened, and he whispered, "Don't hold back, protect your sister-in-law with all your might!"
Bai Mianmian glanced at Zhang Weitao.
"Yes!" A resounding reply echoed through the air, and almost simultaneously, various supernatural abilities exploded in the air.
Apart from Bai Mianmian, all the members of the Second Legion who came with her are now fighting the enemy.
Bai Mianmian was protected within the protective circle. Watching Zhang Weitao and the others busy fighting off enemies, seeing them each taking on five or even more enemies, she was momentarily unsure whether she should intervene.
They didn't seem to be under much pressure. Although everyone's face was tense, their bright eyes clearly showed that they were excited and overjoyed.
Or should we give them some more practical experience? Bai Mianmian thought to herself.
"Requesting backup! We've been ambushed in the forest!" Zhang Weitao pressed the emergency contact button on his terminal, and flames erupted from his hands, blasting away the approaching enemies one by one.
Upon hearing this, Bai Mianmian looked at Zhang Weitao, and after seeing this scene, her eyes filled with doubt.
She seemed puzzled as to why he would ask for help.
In Bai Mianmian's view, there wasn't much danger to the hundred or so people in front of her, even if she didn't take action, so why did she need to ask for help?
Second Army Corps Command Room.
There were only two people on duty in the huge command room when suddenly, a sharp alarm broke the silence, followed by Zhang Weitao's cries for help coming from the communicator.
The two people on duty immediately stood up straight and got to work on the alarm.
The moment the alarm sounded in the command center, Jiang Ci, who was rushing towards Bai Mianmian in the forest, also heard an alarm on his terminal.
When he heard Zhang Weitao's words, his face instantly turned cold.
His already fast flight speed suddenly increased even more.
Let's get back to the forest.
Bao Zhiyuan looked at the crowd that had suddenly clashed in front of him and immediately shouted, "Retreat!"
He had absolutely no intention of sending the soldiers who came with him to support Zhang Weitao and his men.
The moment he finished speaking, he picked up Sun Yuxin and turned around without hesitation, rushing back the way he came.
Bao Zhiyuan intended to leave before the others noticed them, but fate had other plans. Just as he rushed out with Sun Yuxin, someone among those besieging Bai Mianmian and the others noticed them. That person's expression changed slightly, and he cursed, "Damn it!"
The man suddenly turned around and rushed towards Sun Yuxin and the others, shouting loudly, "You've got the wrong target! Sun Yuxin, the S-rank Sun Purifier is here!"
Bao Zhiyuan and the others' expressions changed drastically.
As the crowd approached Bai Mianmian and the others, someone immediately turned around at the sound and saw Bao Zhiyuan carrying a woman as he rushed away into the distance.
Although the woman buried her face in Bao Zhiyuan's chest, making it impossible to see her features, Bao Zhiyuan, as one of Sun Yuxin's publicly acknowledged partners, had already been clearly identified on the StarNet website.
Looking at the woman's clothes, it's easy to tell that she is the target of this trip—S-level Purifier Sun Yuxin!
Those who could leave the battlefield immediately evacuated and then turned to chase after Sun Yuxin and the others.
Those who couldn't immediately leave the battlefield stopped fighting and used all their skills to escape Zhang Weitao and his group's attacks, turning around to chase after Sun Yuxin and the others.
The sudden turn of events left Bai Mianmian somewhat bewildered.
"Stop them!" Bao Zhiyuan shouted urgently. He took a mech out of its storage compartment, intending to pilot it and take Sun Yuxin away from there.
Without him saying a word, the guards who had come with him immediately shielded the two of them when they saw those people rushing towards them.
"Whoosh!" Just then, a colorless sphere the size of a fist suddenly attacked.
Its surface rippled with layers of energy fluctuations, and it moved with incredible speed and agility, passing through several people until it was forced to stop seven or eight meters away from Bao Zhiyuan, who was about to enter the mecha's cockpit.
But the next second, the colorless sphere suddenly exploded: "Boom!"
The massive shockwave from the explosion instantly blew away nearby people, and Bao Zhiyuan's body was slammed hard into the mecha's cockpit.
He was just a hair's breadth away from getting Sun Yuxin into the cockpit.
"Ah!" Sun Yuxin, who was being held tightly against his chest, screamed in fright again.
"Whoosh!" Amidst the piercing scream, a faint sound of air being cut was caught by Bao Zhiyuan's ears.
He looked up and saw a white line, about the thickness of a finger, approaching at an extremely fast speed... no, to be precise, at this moment the white line was only an arm's length away from Sun Yuxin.
Bao Zhiyuan's eyes sharpened, and he was about to activate his superpower when a crisp metallic sound rang out.
The white line that was shooting straight at Sun Yuxin suddenly veered off course and shot to the side, where a figure immediately appeared.
"Give me Yuxin, and I'll take her away invisibly." The man rushed up to Bao Zhiyuan and spoke urgently.
"You're really alright." Bao Zhiyuan couldn't tell whether he was relieved or regretful.
The person who arrived was also one of Sun Yuxin's partners, Guan Jiechen, who possessed the A-level stealth ability.
At the moment those mushrooms exploded, he genuinely thought Guan Jiechen had been hit, since their combat suits were almost the same color, and the chaotic scene at the time didn't allow him to get a good look.
However, he still had a vague feeling that the body shape of the person who was blown up was a bit off, so he always had a doubt about Guan Jiechen's "death".
"I'm perfectly fine." Guan Jiechen smiled faintly, then reached out and took Sun Yuxin from Bao Zhiyuan's arms.
Sun Yuxin was initially reluctant to leave Bao Zhiyuan's embrace, but upon hearing Guan Jiechen's familiar voice, she looked at him with delight and stopped clinging to him tightly.
"Yu Xin, let me take you away first." As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Jiechen carried Sun Yu Xin and disappeared from Bao Zhiyuan's sight in an instant.
"Whoosh!" Just then, the white line that had been forced to deflect once again locked onto Sun Yuxin's direction and shot towards her.
Bao Zhiyuan's fierce gaze instantly locked onto the owner of the white line.
