Chapter 109

The battle began exactly at twelve o'clock, when a missile, guided by a laser locator and trailing fire, fell into the gym.

First, a loud sound rang out, smashing all the glass in the ceiling of the gymnasium into pieces. Following that, flames that soared into the sky shot up into the sky like a dragon, then slowly spread out in all directions, as if a scarlet flower had bloomed.

In the next moment, Finlay's angry roar came out from the gym. Hundreds of huge wolves rushed out of the gym through the raging flames.

Their bodies were covered with a faint layer of freezing air, and when the flames touched them, they immediately felt as if they were being suppressed by an invisible hand.

However, the huge wolf that rushed out of the gymnasium was greeted with a machine gun from a soldier hiding behind a cover.

As for the armored vehicles, they continued to fire missiles at the gymnasium, while the large-caliber artillery in the ancient covered chariot continued to fire at the wolves that rushed out of the gymnasium.

All of a sudden, explosions and gunfire could be heard all over Morin.

Under the strong firepower of Phoenix City, even the ground began to tremble slightly.

Zero's SUV was parked on a street five hundred meters from the gym.

Before the battle had even begun, George had explained the details of the operation in the car, while each of the six members was assigned a tactical watch, blasting detonators, and a pocket flasher.

In addition to the basic functions of the tactical wristwatch, it also has the functions of calling and recording.

George was able to provide tactical support by using the camera in his watch to get a real-time view of the team.

As for the detonator and the signal gun, they are used to remove obstacles and to call for help.

In the distance, the battle was raging.

The explosion of flames in the gymnasium and the smoke of dragons soaring into the sky could be seen without telescopes.

This was his first time entering a new era of war. That's right, this was not a battle, but a real war!

After waking up, even though Zero had participated in a lot of battles, it was mostly team warfare.

The number of people involved in the conflict was at best between Saurun and himself, but Saurun's team consisted of only a hundred soldiers. It could not be called a war at all.

And now, a war was happening right under the noses of the natives.

Phoenix sent out two thousand men, along with a missile system armoured vehicle and a banded artillery vehicle.

Such a force could only be considered as a united army in the old days, with tens of thousands of division divisions.

However, in this new era, being able to gather two thousand troops and the resources of such a chariot was already enough to make people in Phoenix City change their minds.

After all, in the days after the Cataclysm, the world's surviving population was only a fraction of the global population of the old days.

And now, fifty years later, even if the human reproduction period shortens, the reproductive age decreases and the number of reproduction increases.

But after all, the time is short, and the increase in population is no more than a car with water and a salary.

Moreover, with the harsh conditions of the new age, a baby's ordeal from birth to adulthood was unthinkable.

And if one of them made a mistake, that meant the fall of a life.

As for the wild, the worst thing one could do was die.

Weapons processing is a big problem, even when the population size factor is taken into account.

Different from the old assembly line, the lack of resources and the shortage of manpower led to the transformation of the new weapons and equipment into precision processing.

This meant that although the level and power of the weapons had been increased, the output of the rare weapons would not be able to support the large-scale war.

Thus, one of the businesses of adventurer merchants included excavating old weapons and equipment, and even selling war chariots.

For example, Phoenix City used two overlay artillery vehicles which were purchased from adventurer merchants and repaired and modified before they could be put into use.

Thus, to the new era, a battle of more than 2,000 people could already be called a war, even though Phoenix City's opponents were only five hundred Finli Wolves.

The gymnasium was on fire. It was as if Phoenix City's army had the upper hand. In truth, it was only an act.

First was the issue of firepower. Whether it was missiles or artillery shells, the strategic resources for heavy firepower were extremely limited. Although Phoenix City had some hoarding, it was impossible for them to put them all to use for the sake of Finlay.

Therefore, the heavy firepower suppression provided by the two tanks was very limited, and other than the first missile that had been caught off guard at the start, the following bombardment in fact did not kill Finlay in a large area.

These strong and agile demon wolves were not something that a fixed attack could quickly kill.

Second, the relatively flexible firepower is provided by the automatic machine gun in the soldier's hand.

It was true that the firepower of two thousand men was powerful, but last night's battle had proved that the inherent defensive power of Finlay could reduce the automatic machine gun to a minimum.

The most effective individual attack against them came from sniper rifles, but a sniper, even if it was only a rank 1 specialized sniper, would require a large amount of resources to develop.

Even with the strength of a city in Descending Phoenix City, they only managed to nurture around thirty snipers.

And although there were twenty snipers on the battlefield, they had taken Finlay's life every time they attacked. After all, there were too few of them, and the number of casualties was also pitifully small.

Thus, Phoenix City's apparent advantage did not last for too long.

When the heavy firepower of the ammunition ran out, Finlay was completely capable of attacking the firepower of Phoenix City which was composed of ordinary soldiers.

This was their home ground, and the battle wouldn't last long. When Finley Wolf began to gain the upper hand, the other monsters would definitely not be left alone to share the spoils of war. At that time, the end of the battle would come.

Therefore, the crux of this battle was still in the group where Zero was the King Slasher.

As long as they could kill the King of Finlay, the Demon Wolves would not be a match for the army if they lost their command and their morale would plummet.

This was a characteristic of the war of the new era. Genetic evolution, the appearance of Adepts, and the shift in the balance of power from the number of warriors to the number of powerful individuals.

A Tenth Order or higher Adept had the power to destroy an army of five thousand men with ease.

Ten minutes after the battle had begun, George announced the start of the King Cleaving operation.

All of the Adepts, including Zero, jumped out of their vehicles. Under George's command, they circled in a semicircle and headed in the direction of the gym.

When everyone began to act, different powers also showed different ways of exercising.

Nixon was like a human tank, moving in a straight line.

Whether it was the car or the broken stone in front of him, they were either bounced off by him or directly smashed apart. He himself didn't even have the slightest bit of pause as he directly rushed towards the direction of the gymnasium as if there was no one there.

As for Sario and Janney, they moved relatively gently.

What was different was that Sario would always stay in the shadows and then disappear into another shadow.

Jenny was always on the high ground, or on the roof of the car, or on the stoop of a street lamp.

When she moved, she was completely focused. There was less charm in her actions, but there was more heroic spirit in her actions.

Zuma's way of moving is the strangest of all. He moves in a sort of zero flicker, but he doesn't.

Zuma's entire body was shrouded in a layer of black fog, and the fog that enveloped him continued to move in a continuous jumping motion, while Zuma himself did not even move his toes.

The calmest was the one who was afraid of the Japanese swordsman, Watanabe. He did not run like Nathan, nor did he run like Sario and Jenny, let alone Zuma's strange movements.

Watanabe was walking with his feet, but he seemed to be moving slowly, and in fact he was no slower than anyone else.

As they watched, the only thing they could do was keep up with the progress of the crowd. They watched the espers' unique movements.

He suddenly had an epiphany. The difference in abilities determined the difference in fighting style. This included the attacking posture and the way he moved.

This meant that no matter how powerful an Adept was, their combat style would always produce something similar to a habit.

Once they got used to it, they would have weaknesses. As long as they could find the corresponding weaknesses, they would be invincible!

Naturally, it was not easy to find the habits and weaknesses of the strong.

That required a lot of data calculation. Currently, with the enhancement of zero agility, there was no way for them to perform such a huge calculation on the ever-changing battlefield.

But no matter what, Zero seemed to feel his own way of fighting.

That was to find the weak point and kill him in one blow!
