267: Bristleback? Interesting.

“Master, is this really dangerous?!”

Lu Xueqing was a little worried as she watched Xiao Yun preparing to rappel down.

During class, the teacher had specifically mentioned that before rappelling, one must check if there’s anyone on the other side.

Because when both hands are gripping the transmission device on the rope, both hands and feet are off the ground, making it impossible to perform any actions.

If someone was lying in wait on the other side, then the match would be over.

And now.

Since they had already confirmed that a group of Hafuk Soldiers were lurking at the base of the Babel Tower, wouldn’t going down now be like walking into a tiger’s den?

“Sigh, why do you all not believe me?”

“We’re worried about you, okay?!”

Zhang Yu said helplessly.

Xiao Yun's calm expression clearly showed he didn't take the threat below seriously.

But the problem was, he could treat his life as nothing, after all, dying in the Forbidden Zone meant he could revive.

However, he couldn't treat big red as not big red!

In this match, all the red supplies Lu Xueqing had found were given to Xiao Yun to carry.

If he slid down and died at the bottom of the building, how would he and Lu Xueqing get the big red supplies out?

“By the way, I should remind you, the Blue Eagle Fighter seems to have been dispatched too. Even if you manage to safely go downstairs and deal with these Hafuk Soldiers, you still need to be careful when you go out!”

Zhang Yu sighed helplessly. Although he was worried to death, he also knew that Xiao Yun wouldn’t do anything he wasn’t confident about.

Since he couldn’t dissuade him, he could only wish him good luck.

After all, Zhang Yu really couldn’t think of any way Xiao Yun could withstand the rows of gunfire downstairs.

“I know, I know. Sigh, just listen for my signal. Wait until I’ve cleared all dangers before you come down.”

Xiao Yun said impatiently, then turned his back to the two of them and directly climbed onto the zipline device.

Whoosh—

“Enemy! Everyone, attention!”

“The enemy is there, prepare for battle!”

“Stay alert!”

With the sound of the zipline device, the Hafuk Soldiers downstairs immediately raised their guard.

Earlier, due to Black Bro leading everyone in an ambush within the Babel Tower, Hafk’s forces had been reduced by more than half this time.

Now, only thirty-odd regular soldiers, six shield soldiers, and three Machine Gun Bros, difficult for ordinary people to deal with, remained.

And due to the special nature of the zipline device, this time the shield soldiers were not at the entrance, but instead had thirty Hafuk Soldiers set up their formation.

Once the target operative appeared, they would clear their magazines without hesitation!

Whoosh—

As the zipline continued to hum, the Hafuk Soldiers also pressed their aiming sights closer to their eyes.

“Fire!”

Bang bang bang bang bang bang—!

At the command of a commanding officer, over thirty Hafuk Soldiers continuously pulled the triggers of their weapons, sweeping the target area with seamless, absolute firepower.

These despicable Hafuk Soldiers actually fired pre-emptively!

And when Xiao Yun’s back appeared at the zipline, the Hafuk Soldiers’ bullets continuously poured onto his body.

Bang bang bang bang bang—

Ding ding ding ding ding!

However.

The scene of the enemy instantly falling, as imagined by the Hafuk Soldiers, did not occur.

Instead, when the bullets struck Xiao Yun’s back, there was a series of crisp metallic clangs!

“No! What’s going on?!”

“This is a steel-backed beast! Why can’t we penetrate it?!”

“Has GTI created some new monster?!”

The Hafuk Soldiers’ firepower didn’t cease, but seeing that their attacks had no effect, they were all shocked.

The firepower of thirty Hafuk Soldiers couldn’t even penetrate his back muscles?

This was a person!

“Get out of the way, let me do it!”

A Machine Gunner roared, his Gatling gun’s magazine spinning, and the regular soldiers quickly made way.

Bang bang bang bang bang—!

The next second, the Gatling gun spewed blue flames, and a storm of bullets struck Xiao Yun’s back.

Under the fierce barrage of the machine gun, he remained completely unharmed!

These scenes deeply stimulated the hearts of the Hafuk Soldiers.

This... what kind of monster was this?

And just then, as the Machine Gun Bro’s gunfire swept past, a faint, massive black shield faintly appeared on Xiao Yun’s back.

This was Deep Blue operative’s passive skill, Rear Guard!

[Rear Guard: When the riot shield is not in use, it will be placed behind the user, blocking bullets fired from the rear.]

“Not good! The enemy has special armaments!”

Seeing this, the commanding Hafk Soldier was immediately shocked.

He had long heard that GTI had some special operatives, who had similar appearances and fought using super-technology.

However, this was his first time seeing it with his own eyes!

“You’ve realized? Too late.”

Xiao Yun chuckled faintly, and with a casual toss, a smoke grenade instantly enveloped the doorway.

“Fire, fire!”

The commanding Hafk Soldier quickly gave orders, but failed to notice several black cubes being thrown out from the smoke.

Drip drip drip drip drip—Bang bang bang bang!!

“Ugh ah—!”

Four loud explosions rang out, and heart-wrenching wails of pain continuously came from around him.

More than thirty Hafuk Soldiers, at that moment, were instantly wiped out by more than half!

“This is… what exactly…”

The commanding officer broke out in a cold sweat.

Such an enemy was completely beyond his comprehension!

To what extent could an operative be so powerful, possessing invincible defensive capabilities while also having such destructive power!

“Still a few left, one, two, three, four… How are there still so many! Sigh, let’s deal with these troublesome ones first.”

The Babel Tower seemed to have sustained damage to its wiring from the explosions, and the lights overhead flickered incessantly.

Then a cold voice was heard, slowly coming from behind everyone.

“When?!”

The commanding Hafk Soldier turned around in shock, but behind him were only two Machine Gun Bros, no one else.

Seeing the two Machine Gun Bros turn their heads at the same time, that voice just now was clearly from this direction.

“Ugh—!”

“Ah!”

And the next second.

First, a Machine Gun Bro instantly went limp and fell to the ground, followed by another.

In just half a second, Hafk lost two more crucial combatants!

What kind of ability was this again?!

Watching his two teammates slowly fall, the shock in the commanding soldier’s heart was now gradually turning into fear.

“GTI... GTI... what exactly have you done!?”

He kept repeating the three letters, and with each bewildered utterance, the sound of a shield soldier falling to the ground came from beside him.

Soon, only a dozen ordinary Hafuk Soldiers remained on the scene, including the commanding officer.

At this moment, his face was pale, his eyes vacant, and he had completely given up thinking!

He had lost so many teammates, yet he hadn’t even seen the opponent’s figure!

What exactly... was this, human or ghost?!

And just then, that voice slowly came from beside him.

“Standing so close, let’s deal with them all at once.”
