Chapter 71 Divine Monster
Chapter 71 Divine Monster
The monster Zhang Qiyuan is blind and doesn't know what happened, but he knows the situation is bad.
He panicked: "What happened?"
"What exactly happened? Can someone tell me?"
"By the Eternal Mother above, what has happened?"
Chang Yuan frowned and said, "This guy is so noisy."
"His power is immense, even stronger than the Blood Spirit Cult's dark iron-skinned evil spirit, yet he is so cowardly and weak. I have never encountered such a sinister monster before."
Gao Su reminded him, "Captain, the monsters we've encountered before were either military generals or ordinary people, but this guy is a civil official in disguise."
Everyone, including Lu Linglong and the centurion, echoed in agreement: "Oh—"
Then everyone burst into laughter; this was the military's contempt for civilian officials.
They talk about morality and character in ordinary times, but when things come to a head, they're incompetent and quick to shift the blame!
This perfectly fits the stereotype of a scholar!
Upon hearing the laughter of the Imperial Guards and soldiers, the monster Zhang Qiyuan's fear vanished instantly, replaced by the contempt of a civil official for a military man, and the anger of being bullied by a crude and uncouth soldier.
He roared and charged madly toward the direction from which the laughter was loudest.
Fortunately, he was heading in the right direction.
So, following behind the monster Zhang Qiyuan, even more cultists rushed out.
Many of them were firing crossbows and muskets, bullets and arrows whizzing past the walls.
Lu Linglong immediately raised her gun to return fire, but heard a crisp metallic clang, and then she realized that she had run out of bullets.
She clumsily pried open the magazine, removed the spent cartridges, and began loading new bullets one by one.
The whole movement was clumsy and unskilled.
Chang Yuan silently took a step to the side, shielding Lu Linglong behind him.
He gave a deep order: "I'll deal with this monster; you deal with the ordinary cultists."
"Fire!"
Under Chang Yuan's tutelage, the members of his elite cavalry squad developed a rapid reloading technique.
Four people stood side by side on the wall, ignoring the bullets and arrows that whizzed past them, and in perfect unison, each chose their target and unleashed a barrage of bullets.
The gunshots were crisp and rapid, blooming into bloodstains among the cultists and forcefully halting their charge.
When the soldiers used ladders to climb over the wall and joined the battle with a single rifle, the cultists were completely out of luck; they couldn't even show their heads.
The long gun is not only long in barrel, but also in bullets that are much longer than those of a revolver, making it much more powerful.
Although the firepower density is low in a one-on-one situation, it can still be fatal to a person.
Because when Chang Yuan designed the bullets, he used copper-clad lead bullets and habitually placed the center of gravity at the rear to increase the lethality after entering the human body.
This design was discovered by craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty and was used in rifle bullets.
The wound from a rifle bullet looks like an eye from the front, but from the back it's a hole the size of a bowl.
With such a wound, the internal organs and muscles are completely rotten, and the bones are shattered beyond recognition; the person is actually already dead.
No matter how much the evil god suppressed the pain and fear, it could not make a corpse continue fighting.
It is said that in the desolate lands, there are some evil gods who wield the power of death and can indeed manipulate corpses to fight, but within the radiation range of the Ming Dynasty's dragon aura, no evil god has yet been able to do so.
The Ming Dynasty will not allow such an awesome evil god to exist!
The soldiers and imperial guards opened fire on the cultists, tearing them to shreds.
Zhang Qiyuan, the monster targeted by the concentrated fire, displayed astonishing defensive capabilities.
After a pistol bullet hits, it doesn't even leave a white mark.
Even when hit by more powerful rifle bullets, it only bruises and welts, without bleeding.
Once the bluish-purple bruise appears, it dissipates at a speed visible to the naked eye, sometimes even faster than it appeared.
Under the suppression of the Eastern Garrison of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, all the top cults had no choice but to develop powerful monsters that combined high defense and strong self-healing abilities.
Such monsters are actually quite difficult to deal with. Either you need to team up with other superhumans of the same level to handle them, or you need to drive them out of the town into the wild and blast them into mincemeat with artillery.
Fortunately, Chang Yuan's accurate shooting allowed him to immediately rob the monster Zhang Qiyuan of his sight.
Each subsequent bullet, following a straight or curved trajectory, precisely pierced the monster's eyes, ears, nasal cavity, and throat, causing the monster to scream in agony.
But after three consecutive reloads, a total of 18 bullets were fired into the monster's face and seven orifices, none of them caused fatal damage. Chang Yuan knew that there was something special about the monster's bones.
He frowned slightly, quickly reloaded his ammunition, and fired while shouting:
"Gao Su! Palm Thunder!"
Upon hearing Chang Yuan's order, Gao Su immediately pulled out a palm-sized thunderbolt from his waist.
With a quick aim, he threw the palm grenade at the monster.
Chang Yuan fired in quick succession, accurately hitting the monster's eyes and striking its ear canals with an arc trajectory.
As the monster roared in agony, Gao Su used his telekinesis to precisely manipulate the trajectory of the lightning bolt in his palm and stuffed it into its mouth.
He snapped his fingers, using his telekinesis to activate the internal fire cap and ignite it!
boom--!
The effect of the oral cavity explosion was superb. Even the invulnerable monster Zhang Qiyuan had his entire jaw blown off by the palm thunder.
The aftershocks of the explosion also tore apart the monster's cheeks, nose, and ears, leaving its entire face shattered and horribly disfigured.
But it didn't die. Instead, it completely lost its mind. In its madness, it involuntarily accepted a part of the evil god's consciousness and degenerated into a true divine monster.
Lu Linglong noticed that Chang Yuan, who seemed more nervous, was actually suddenly excited, as happy as if he had found money.
[This guy has a big secret! The descent of the evil god's divinity seems to be of immense benefit to him!]
God doesn't care about the camps of ants, and divine monsters no longer distinguish between friend and foe; they simply rush towards wherever there is a sound.
It hit the south wall and knocked it down violently.
When they encountered houses, they would violently overturn them.
If it encounters a living person, the monster will excitedly grab them and tear them to pieces with extreme violence.
The soldiers were terrified by the monster.
Especially when the wall beneath their feet collapsed and an unfortunate soldier fell into the monster's hands and was torn to pieces, everyone screamed and ran away, but they didn't forget to drag their centurion along with them.
Lu Linglong was extremely nervous at this moment. She was proud and had a strong sense of justice. She would never turn her back on the enemy and run away. Instead, she put away the unfamiliar revolver and took out her real weapon.
Just then, Chang Yuan opened his arms and made a gesture of spreading out.
Under his command, the guards dispersed to avoid the monster's frenzied charge and opened fire in sequence, drawing the monster into the interior of the courtyard to attack the rooms where the cultists were hiding.
As the cultists were being ravaged by the monster, Chang Yuan handed his revolver to his left hand and reached out his right hand to Lu Linglong.
He beckoned with his four fingers and said, "Thigh... oops, Lord Lu, could you lend me your gun?"
Lu Linglong frowned: "I'll lend you a gun, but what did you call me?"
Chang Yuan said, "Don't worry about the details."
"This humble official needs to borrow your golden spear, sir. Just six extraordinary fire bullets will be enough to take down this monster."
Lu Linglong pursed her lips and tossed the gold revolver in her right hand to Chang Yuan.
Chang Yuan took the gun and, without hesitation, turned it around and fired.
boom!boom!boom!boom!
