60: The Emperor deploys his formation: Spear, Shield, Eye, Life! The war machine starts!

"Zzzzzzzzzz—"

After a harsh static sound,

A forcefully activated in-squad voice channel

rang out simultaneously in the ears of the five members of the Joint Squad.

Inside the channel, it was hell.

"Boom!"

—This was the sound of an explosion near Gu Yanci.

"Damn it! Are you guys never going to end?!"

—This was Ye Qiong's angry roar, suppressed behind a wall.

"Cough cough cough..."

—This was Ye Liuli's violent coughing in the thick smoke.

Gunshots, gasps, the whistling of bullets... chaos and despair.

Through this small channel, it was infinitely amplified.

It's over... Fighting individually, they're sure to die!

This thought

simultaneously surfaced in everyone's mind.

Just as this chaos was about to engulf everyone,

a calm, steady voice,

carrying an undeniable authority,

rang out like a clap of thunder,

overpowering all other noise.

"Everyone shut up!"

It was the Human Emperor Gu Yanci!

"Listen! Fighting individually is a dead end! Everyone, immediately break through to St. Martin's Church at the center of the map! This is an order! Survive at all costs and gather there!"

In his voice,

there was an innate, convincing imperial aura.

The chaotic morale

was forcibly stabilized at this moment.

"Ye Qiong! You are the vanguard; use your fastest speed to carve out a path for me!"

"Ye Liuli! Your mission isn't to break through, it's to hunt down all snipers in high positions along the way! Create opportunities for the others!"

"Ling Xi! Don't be afraid! Follow the path Ye Liuli clears! Your luck is what we need most right now!"

"Cang Xuan! Use your 'Dao' to find that path to survival!"

"Move!"

At his command,

the eyes of the five, who were on the verge of collapse, reignited with light!

"Roar!!!"

Military base.

Ye Qiong let out a beast-like roar from behind the wall.

He threw his only smoke grenade forward.

The moment white smoke filled the air,

he charged out like a cannonball, with fierce determination!

He ignored the bullets that struck his body.

His objective was clear.

He charged into a three-person firing point.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Three muffled thuds.

Three bodies flew backward!

He didn't pick up their guns.

Instead, with an unreasonably brutal posture,

using his bare fists and flesh,

he forcibly smashed open a gap in the encirclement!

G Port.

Amidst the sea of fire,

Ye Liuli's figure was like a ghost.

She didn't choose to break through from the front.

Instead, under the cover of thick smoke,

she climbed the tallest crane in the port.

Her vision covered almost half the battlefield.

She saw a sniper on the hillside by the lake

firing at the desperately fleeing Ling Xi.

Ye Liuli pulled out a crossbow she had just picked up from her back.

Without a scope, relying purely on instinct.

"Whoosh—"

The crossbow bolt pierced the air!

Thousands of miles away,

the sniper was hit in the forehead and fell silently.

Having completed all this,

she didn't linger.

Like a black lightning bolt, she swept towards the church.

By the lakeside,

Saintess Ling Xi gritted her teeth.

Amidst a hail of bullets,

she performed textbook-perfect snake-like movements.

Just as she was about to be engulfed by the flanking firepower network,

an out-of-control buggy

suddenly rolled down the hillside.

It landed right on top of that squad,

triggering a series of explosions!

Is... is God helping me?

She didn't have time to think much, seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

She rushed towards the church without looking back.

Mountain top.

Cang Xuan closed his eyes.

In his mind,

countless lines of cause and effect intertwined.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

He didn't take the seemingly safest small path down the mountain.

Instead, he plunged into the nearby rocky terrain, a desperate situation covered by the firepower of two teams.

However,

a miracle occurred.

Bullets always grazed his clothes.

Grenades always exploded a meter behind him.

He walked as if strolling through a downpour, not a single leaf touching him.

The path he took seemed perilous at every step,

yet it was precisely the blind spots and gaps in all the enemies' firepower!

...[St. Martin's Church]

Ye Qiong was the first to arrive.

He was covered in blood, like a god of slaughter.

He directly blocked the main entrance of the church.

Close behind, Gu Yanci also arrived from the flank.

"Hold them! They'll be here soon!"

The pursuers surged in like a tide!

Just as the two were about to be overwhelmed,

the stained-glass window on the second floor of the church suddenly shattered.

A dark figure flashed past.

Ye Liuli, like an inquisitor of the night,

her SKS rifle made crisp, yet deadly sounds.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

With every gunshot,

a pursuer fell dead.

Cang Xuan and Ling Xi also rushed into the church at this moment.

"Left flank! They're trying to outflank us from the graveyard!"

Cang Xuan immediately shouted.

Ling Xi distributed the first-aid kits and energy drinks she had "picked up" along the way to everyone.

The five finally reunited!

"Everyone! Listen to my command!"

Gu Yanci's voice echoed throughout the church.

"Using the church as our formation, prepare to counterattack!"

"Ye Qiong, you are our shield, hold the main entrance!"

"Ye Liuli, you are our spear, clear all high points!"

"Cang Xuan, you are our eyes, warn us of all threats!"

"Ling Xi, you are our life, ensure we all live!"

"In this battle, we are not fighting for a chicken dinner, we are fighting to... survive!"

Facing the dense crowd outside the church,

this newly assembled "Godly Squad"

for the first time,

let out their roar to this world!

The surging tide of enemies

crashed against a reef named "Team"!

Ye Qiong's iron fists,

Ye Liuli's cold shots,

Gu Yanci's precise single shots,

Cang Xuan's battlefield predictions,

Ling Xi's logistical support... five distinct powers

perfectly merged at this moment,

erupting with earth-shattering energy!

The previously frantic "gold prospectors"

for the first time, were met by this perfectly coordinated and tacit agreement team.

They were beaten back step by step, with bodies strewn everywhere!

The audience in the live stream was stunned.

The bullet comments began to scroll wildly.

"Holy crap... what... what is this?! Even professional teams don't have such fierce coordination!"

"These five people... are they really teaming up for the first time?!"

"I'm hyped! This is so damn exciting! This is a true desperate counterattack!"

"Holy crap!!!!!!! Emperor Gu!!!! Is this the dominance of the Human Emperor?!"

"One person controls the whole field! One 'Shut up' almost made me drop my phone!"

"Ye Qiong!!! What kind of human weapon are you?! Dismantling firing points with your fists?!"

"Ah ah ah Sister Liuli is so cool! That crossbow bolt! Blind headshot?! What kind of hack is this?!"

"Ling Xi's luck... is she the chosen one?! An out-of-control buggy precisely hitting their faces?!"

"Cang Xuan must have opened his heavenly eyes?! Is this kind of movement really possible?! Bullets going around him?!"

"They've reunited, they've reunited! I'm getting goosebumps!"

"Five minutes ago: Fighting individually, scattered like sand, sure to die. Five minutes later: Holy crap, are these five people? This is clearly a war machine!"
