Chapter 188 Fierce Battle
After the group quickly prepared themselves, Engineer Zheng drove the car, and the four of them quickly headed towards the old city.
Peace Financial Building is not far from the old city.
It was precisely because of this that Engineer Zheng received the message for help from Gu Mengping.
"Everyone, get ready. The message for help says that there are an astonishing number of spider monsters in the old city, and some of them are extremely powerful, surpassing ordinary beasts. The most dangerous one is the mother spider, which is huge in size and may be as powerful as an extraordinary creature."
Engineer Zheng said as he drove: "Speaking of this spider mother, I have to talk about the time when Li Yi, I, and Wang Jian went on a mission together. We clearly had the opportunity to shoot it, but we were interrupted by a ferocious beast. At that time, Wang Jian said that this thing might cause a disaster in the future, and he really came true."
"It's not too late to act now." Li Yi said calmly: "Zheng Gong and Yuan Mingjin will use sniper rifles to provide support later, and Lin Yue and I will do the rest."
"Okay, I'll follow your instructions." Engineer Zheng nodded.
Yuan Mingjin also said that there was no problem. Long-range sniping was his strong point. He would be very happy if he could shoot Spider-Man from a safe position.
Lin Yue said, "Li Yi, the most important thing for our mission this time is to find the mother body of Spider-Man and kill it. Only in this way can we completely solve this incident and get the credit. I also know a thing or two about the practitioner named Gu Mengping. He is very powerful and is said to have some friendship with Yang Yilong. He is now working for the Investigation Bureau and his purpose is very clear, which is to compete for the quota."
"So we are in competition with him. His failure to complete this mission is an opportunity for us."
"Sister Lin, although the mission is important, our own safety is also very important. You also said that Gu Mengping is very capable, but even he failed to complete this mission. You can imagine the risks involved. We can't put ourselves in danger just because we are eager to make a contribution." Li Yi said.
He hoped Lin Yue could calm down and not get carried away.
This time, quite a few spiritual masters in Tianchang City died in the hunting missions. Even the team leader Zhang Lei was unconscious. You can imagine how dangerous these missions are.
"Li Yi, you are right. The mission is important, and our safety is also important." Lin Yue took a deep breath at this moment to calm her restless heart: "In this case, let's act according to the circumstances. If there is a chance, we will go. If there is no chance, this mission will be regarded as a run-in."
"That's right." Li Yi nodded.
After a few people discussed with each other, the vehicle soon drove into the old town.
"Engineer Zheng, avoid the buildings ahead. The last time I passed by there, those residential buildings were haunted." Li Yi suddenly reminded.
As soon as these words came out, Zheng Gong was so frightened that he hurriedly turned the steering wheel and quickly changed the route: "No way, is this already haunted?"
"The impact of the supernatural events is getting bigger. This is also a very dangerous matter and must be resolved as soon as possible." Yuan Mingjin whispered, "However, no one dares to take on this task. The Investigation Bureau is very anxious. If anyone can solve the supernatural events in the old city, then I think even if I don't do other tasks, I think it's almost certain that I will get a place in the Golden Academy."
"Paranormal events? Forget it. I'm most afraid of ghosts. They're hard to deal with even if you're not strong. Things that involve the soul can make you fall into a coma like Zhang Lei and become a silent person if you're not careful." Lin Yue shook her head hurriedly.
However, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.
Can I get a spot by solving the paranormal events in the old town?
Li Yi's eyes flashed.
He has experience fighting ghost messengers all over the world, and he also has a hanging spear at home, which is a ghost weapon that can kill evil spirits. If he uses it properly, will he have a chance to solve the supernatural events in the old city?
However, he suppressed this idea as soon as it came up.
My strength is not strong enough now. If I want to fight against ghosts, it is better to break through to the level of training the orifices. By then, my qi and blood will be condensed, and I can kill the evil ghosts with my fist. Maybe that will be my real chance to take action.
If I rush forward relying on the little tricks I have now, once something goes wrong, it will be the end of me and I will lose my life.
Just when he was thinking.
Sudden.
The vehicle braked suddenly and stopped on the side of the road.
"I've seen Spider-Man. There are quite a few of them rushing towards us." Engineer Zheng's anxious voice sounded, and then he opened the car door and immediately picked up a sniper rifle from beside the seat.
He pulled the bolt to load the gun with quick and decisive movements and aimed directly forward.
The others also reacted instantly.
Yuan Mingjin opened the passenger door holding a sniper rifle. He flipped over and climbed onto the roof of the car, then set up the sniper rifle.
Li Yi and Lin Yue rushed out of the car in an instant. They came to the street, their eyes shining as they looked at everything around them, while also quickly observing the situation nearby.
But the next moment.
Everyone's eyes suddenly narrowed and a look of shock appeared on their faces.
The walls of the residential building not far away were densely covered with Spider-Men. Every wall was gray and looked particularly creepy. And not only on the walls of the building, but also on the ground in front, and on nearby cars and telephone poles, there were Spider-Men.
With just a quick glance, there were at least hundreds of Spider-Men.
"How can there be so many?" Lin Yue was shocked at this moment.
"If the mother body of Spider-Man is not eliminated, they will continue to reproduce. But the speed of reproduction is too terrifying. Or is it that there is enough food in the old city, which leads to a rapid increase in numbers? It was not like this before in the danger zone." Li Yi narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
"Is there enough food? What can this thing eat?" Yuan Mingjin asked on the roof of the car.
"What else can these monsters eat? Of course, they eat humans," said Li Yi.
"Fuck! These beasts." Yuan Mingjin couldn't help but curse.
Zheng Gong immediately said, "Li Yi, do you want to take action? With so many, we can't handle it with just a few people."
"What are you afraid of? There are only over a hundred of them, and the strength of these Spider-Men varies. At worst, we can fight for a few hours and kill them all. Save your bullets and shoot the big Spider-Men first. The bigger these things are, the stronger they are. The small ones don't pose much of a threat." Li Yi said.
"The most important one is a huge spider-man with a white body. That should be the mother. If you see it, switch to special bullets and kill it with one shot. Don't hesitate."
"Now, do it."
As his words fell.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two gunshots suddenly rang out.
Yuan Mingjin and Zheng Gong opened fire, and in just a blink of an eye they had killed the two largest Spider-Men lying on the building in the distance.
However, this sudden attack directly alarmed all the spider monsters nearby.
Unlike the few scattered spiders Li Yi encountered last time, after these spider-men gathered together, they actually changed their previous habits. Instead of running around scared by the gunshots, they all crawled towards this side at an astonishing speed.
The densely packed Spider-Men, big and small, look like marching ants, making people's scalps tingle.
"This..." Zheng Gong and Yuan Mingjin were a little panicked for a moment.
There is no way that so many sniper rifles can hit them, we have to use missiles to bomb them.
But this is the old town, and we can't use weapons of mass destruction.
"Don't panic. These Spider-Men are just numerous but not strong. You just take charge of sniping, and leave the rest to me and Lin Yue." Li Yi just took a bottle of golden nutrient solution and drank it all in one breath, then threw the bottle away and strode forward.
"Be careful, Li Yi." Lin Yue walked side by side with him. She took a deep breath, her eyes lit up, and then she clenched her fists.
"Sister Lin, you too." "Bang! Bang!"
Two more gunshots were heard, and two more of the Spider-Men that were rushing over were shot dead. Zheng Gong and Yuan Mingjin quickly loaded their guns and continued shooting, not daring to pause for a moment, because there were too many of them, and a second slower would mean killing one less monster.
When the two men had used up the first magazine and were reloading, Spider-Man had already appeared before them.
However, Li Yi and Lin Yue stood in front and blocked the narrow road.
"kill!"
At this moment, Li Yi's pupils lit up and his blood surged. He took a big step forward, a wave of heat blew in his face, and then he pounced out like a tiger.
The force of the fist exploded, and with just one hit, a Spider-Man was pierced through the body and blown away.
As Li Yi swung his fists repeatedly and delivered his killing moves, the Spider-men that were originally rushing towards him were knocked away one after another. Blood and broken limbs splattered everywhere. With just one person, he stopped the attacks of a large number of spider monsters.
"Is Li Yi so powerful?" Yuan Mingjin's eyelids twitched when he saw this scene.
One person killed more than a dozen Spider-Men in just one encounter. Such combat power is simply abnormal. No wonder one person dared to lead several people to rush in.
Zheng Gong on the side has already experienced Li Yi's ferocity. His fighting power alone is at least equivalent to that of a dozen spiritual masters. He dares to fight head-on against spiritual masters. It is difficult for these Spider-men to kill Li Yi by numbers, unless the mother body appears.
"Li Yi's punch has become stronger again."
As someone who also learned martial arts, Lin Yue felt Li Yi's power just by hearing the sound of his fist.
Every punch like that shakes the heart and makes people tremble with fear.
However, Lin Yue was not weak at all. She was nimble and agile, and with her spiritual perception, she could easily avoid all of Spider-Man's attacks. Then she punched Spider-Man, and a deep fist mark instantly appeared on his head. After being punched in the head, Spider-Man immediately fell to the ground and died on the spot without even a drop of blood.
Compared to Li Yi's ferocity, Lin Yue's attack was more skillful and he had a high level of control over strength. It only took one punch to kill a monster, and each punch hit the vital point without any unnecessary movements.
The quick and decisive killing made Lin Yue like an agile cheetah, moving among the spider monsters.
The two of them cooperated with each other and actually blocked Spider-Man's attack this time.
Zheng Gong and Yuan Mingjin were not idle either. They kept shooting. Every bullet could kill a Spider-Man. Moreover, they specifically chose to kill large Spider-Man to maximize the results of the battle.
Li Yi's blood was boiling at this moment, his pupils were glowing, and his body was covered in blood. Instead of retreating, he advanced and killed all the way without showing any sign of fatigue.
But he was not immune to Spider-Man's attacks.
Several strange hands of Spider-Men hit him, but Li Yi was wearing clothes made of dragon skin and had a strong physique, so he was not hurt at all by such attacks. However, some Spider-Men attacked his vital points and went straight for his head. It was only at this time that Li Yi was alerted and dodged while punching back.
The force of the fist exploded, and the air wave rolled back. Spider-Man couldn't even stand steadily and flew out on the spot.
Such fighting is brutal and bloody.
In just a few minutes, the streets were littered with the corpses of Spider-Men and the pungent smell of blood filled the air.
But the fighting has not stopped yet.
Li Yi and Lin Yue were still fighting. They were like two tireless machines. They did not retreat in the face of the monsters that were pouring in like a tide.
"Witness!"
Suddenly, Lin Yue was surrounded by Spider-Men. She had no choice but to use the witnessing technique. In an instant, several Spider-Men fell to the ground with their eyelids rolled up.
After briefly alleviating the crisis, Lin Yue instantly punched out and broke through the siege again.
“Is there an end to the quantity of these things?”
Even though Lin Yue is a master of spiritual perception, her physical strength is being consumed crazily at this moment. If the number of these Spider-Men continues to increase, she will be exhausted and will have no choice but to retreat.
She took the time to look at Li Yi with concern.
However, she found that Li Yi was still as vigorous as ever, his punches were powerful and his strength had not diminished at all. This made her wonder whether she was the one with spiritual perception or Li Yi was the one with spiritual perception. Why was Li Yi's physical fitness so high and he showed no signs of fatigue after fighting until now?
What Lin Yue didn't know was that Li Yi also practiced martial arts. He was not only a practitioner in the Inspiration Realm, but also a warrior in the Blood Training Realm.
The two different training routes gave Li Yi an extremely strong physique.
As he said, he could fight for hours under these conditions.
The four men fought like this for a full fifteen minutes.
"I have no bullets." Engineer Zheng said anxiously at this moment.
"I still have two special type bullets, but I can't use them here." As a professional sniper, Yuan Mingjin subconsciously kept two special type bullets and did not use them all.
At this moment they stopped.
The sniper rifle has become hot, and even if there are bullets, you cannot continue shooting, otherwise the gun is likely to explode.
After all, with so many missions, there has never been a situation where shooting lasted for more than ten minutes at a time.
"After this mission, I must prepare a thousand rounds of bullets in the car. The special types of bullets from the Investigation Bureau are hard to get, but ordinary bullets are enough." Engineer Zheng couldn't help but want to curse at this moment.
Even though the preparations were thorough enough, there were still not enough bullets.
Yuan Mingjin said: "This is a special situation. Normally, we don't even need three bullets in one mission. However, the number of Spider-Men has not continued to increase. It has become less. Damn it, we didn't know until we started fighting. Once we started fighting, we found that there were at least hundreds of spider monsters nearby, and they were all rushing towards us."
"Is Li Yi still a human? He is still fighting and not tired at all."
Then he looked at Li Yi in the middle of the street and couldn't help being shocked again. The gun was tired, but he was not tired?
The fierce battle of more than ten minutes may seem like a short time, but this was a high-intensity battle in which the practitioners exerted their full strength.
If it were him, he would definitely be exhausted at this moment.
But Li Yi was still extremely ferocious, which was simply unreasonable.
However, Lin Yue was still fighting, but she was already out of breath, sweating all over, and she couldn't control the strength of her punches. No sound was heard when she punched out, but she did kill a Spider-Man.
It can be seen that her physical condition is very bad and she is unable to mobilize her whole body strength to punch hard.
Fortunately, the battle is almost over.
The streets were littered with the corpses of Spider-Men. Although there were still a dozen or so Spider-Men left, they did not dare to rush forward to die. Instead, they kept crawling back and forth on the wall not far away, wanting to escape but not daring to. It seemed that these Spider-Men were obeying some order, and an instinct made them unable to refuse such an order.
"boom!"
Another punch was thrown.
A spider-man pierced through his body, sent him flying backwards, and died on the spot.
Li Yi was covered in blood. He then put away his fists and stood up, ending the fight.
