Chapter 50
"The Giant Zongzi"
"But Jiang Han! The rock structure inside is very unstable! If we force a blast, it could trigger a chain reaction of collapses!"
Li Zhenhua's anxious voice echoed on the channel.
"Then increase the dosage."
Jiang Han's answer was simple and blunt: "It's better to collapse than to be completely wiped out."
He glanced back at the dark water.
Below, countless tiny bubbles are churning.
That was the wrath of the First Emperor.
If we don't leave this area of water quickly, everyone here will die once the corpse energy below completely erupts.
Li Zhenhua remained silent for two seconds.
His decisiveness as a theater commander allowed him to make a judgment instantly.
"Engineering battalion! Load bunker-buster missiles!"
"Target: Lungmen Node! Full Equivalent Charge!"
"Ten seconds left! Everyone take cover!"
"Ten, nine, eight..."
As the countdown began.
Jiang Han leaped over Bai Sha's head and jumped back to the bunker on the shore.
The Black and White Duo seemed to sense the impending devastating attack and shrank into the crevices of the rocks at the bottom of the water in terror.
"Three, two, one! Detonate!"
Rumble—!!!
At this moment, the earth groaned in sorrow.
It was as if an invisible giant hand had forcibly torn the entire mountain range apart.
The blinding flames instantly illuminated the dark underground space.
A terrifying shockwave, carrying debris and dust, swept in like a sandstorm.
Followed by.
slam-la-
A deafening roar of rushing water erupted.
The rock wall that had blocked the underground lake for countless years was finally shattered completely.
The long-awaited sunlight, through the huge gap, pierced the darkness like a sharp sword and shone on the black water.
pass!
"Walk!"
Jiang Han did not hesitate at all.
He whistled.
Two enormous black shadows immediately emerged from underwater, closely following him as they swam toward the gap filled with light.
……
Kunlun Mountains, outside Death Valley.
The once desolate Gobi Desert is now completely surrounded by a fully armed army.
More than a dozen armed helicopters circled in the air.
Countless dark gun barrels and cannon barrels were locked on the huge hole that had just been blasted open.
Outside the cordon.
It is an "international observer group" from all over the world.
They called it an observation team, but they were really just a pack of jackals who came after smelling the scent.
They came under the guise of "scientific research" and "freedom of the press," but in reality, they were after that "mythical creature" that shocked the world.
The moment Jiang Han's figure emerged from the smoke-filled cave entrance.
The entire room fell silent.
He was soaked to the bone, his black tactical uniform clinging to his body, outlining his lean, cheetah-like muscles.
The iconic black and gold ancient sword was slung diagonally across his back.
His face was deathly pale, but his eyes were frighteningly bright.
"He's out! God Jiang is out!"
The reporters on the perimeter instantly erupted in excitement.
The flashes of light were like a silver ocean, flashing wildly.
Jiang Han squinted slightly and raised his hand to shield his eyes from the glaring sunlight.
He felt somewhat uncomfortable being watched by thousands of people.
Or rather, I feel a bit irritable.
He was about to turn around and leave.
Sudden.
He spotted a familiar figure among the group of blond, blue-eyed foreigners.
That's a woman.
With dazzling blonde hair and wearing a tight leather outfit, her incredibly hot figure was perfectly outlined.
Fiery red lips, face hidden behind sunglasses.
She looks like a female secret agent straight out of a Hollywood blockbuster.
But Jiang Han remembered her.
Just a few days ago, on that bus heading into the mountains.
This woman had tried to flirt with him using such terrible acting skills.
The system alerted at the time: [Hazard detected! This target is carrying a large-caliber thermal weapon!]
now.
The woman was waving excitedly at him, even ignoring the police tape and pushing her way forward.
"Jiang! Jiang! It's me!"
She waved her hand and shouted in broken Chinese that made people want to laugh:
"I'm a 'zongzi'! I'm your 'zongzi'!"
puff--!
Several agents who had been looking serious with their hands on their holsters almost burst out laughing when they heard this.
Even Jiang Han's lips twitched slightly.
Zongzi (sticky rice dumplings)?
In tomb raiding slang, that means "zombie".
Is this foreign woman out of her mind?
Or... is she here to cause trouble?
How dare you call yourself a "zongzi" in front of the ancestors of tomb raiding?
"This woman..."
Jiang Han was speechless.
Li Zhenhua, standing nearby, suddenly changed his expression, quickly walked to Jiang Han's side, and lowered his voice to say:
Don't be fooled by her appearance.
Isabella Shaw. Codename "Black Widow".
"S-class Special Agent of the International Bureau of Anomalous Creatures (IEBA)".
"She has killed more superhumans and explorers than you've ever seen dead."
"She called herself 'Zongzi,' probably trying to imply she was your 'fan' (Fensi), or maybe she was trying to get closer to you using jargon, but she misheard it."
Upon hearing this, a hint of amusement flashed in Jiang Han's eyes.
S-class special envoy?
Black Widow?
interesting.
Isabella, relying on some kind of privilege, actually crossed the cordon and ran all the way to Jiang Han.
The image of the female agent, who had just been so cool and aloof, instantly crumbled.
She took off her sunglasses, revealing a pair of large, watery blue eyes, and looked at Jiang Han with admiration.
"Oh! Jiang! Thank God you're still alive!"
"You were so cool down there! Especially that kick! Wow!"
She gestured exaggeratedly, her breasts heaving violently, making the faces of several young soldiers around her blush.
But Jiang Han's eyes were as clear as ice.
It even carried a hint of scrutiny.
"What's up?"
He coldly uttered two words.
Isabella was taken aback, seemingly not expecting this man to be so unmoved by her charm.
But she quickly adjusted her demeanor, revealing an even more alluring smile.
"Of course I have something to say! I'm here representing the Global Convention on Anomalous Creatures!"
"Mr. Jiang, given what you found down there... those little cuties."
"Our organization is very interested in a...in-depth, exclusive collaboration with you."
talking.
She went even further, reaching out to grab Jiang Han's arm.
The fingers, painted with bright red nail polish, shimmered with an eerie luster in the sunlight.
"Don't touch me."
Jiang Han took a half step back, avoiding her hand.
His gaze instantly turned sharp as a knife.
"besides."
"Next time you want to pretend to be a 'zongzi' (a type of Chinese rice dumpling), remember to wash off the corpse aura first."
"You just... crawled out of a pile of corpses, didn't you?"
Isabella's smile froze on her face.
For the first time, a hint of shock and...killing intent flashed in those azure eyes.
