Chapter 78 Will You Believe It?

Qi An crashed onto the roof of a two-story building, his tentacles, like the tail of a white fox, swaying and spreading behind him.

The alarms grew louder and more piercing; they came from the base, Dongying, and this corner of Dongying—a triple alarm.

But the alarm couldn't completely drown out the footsteps and shouts.

Large numbers of soldiers rushed in from a distance, and soldiers also poured out of the small building.

However, when all the soldiers saw the enemy up close, their first reaction was: It's so beautiful.

Its snow-white wings folded gracefully, while its snow-white tentacles stretched out like a fox's tail.

The tentacles spread outwards, making the dark gray roof look like it was covered with a layer of glistening snow.

But this bizarre and captivating beauty lasted only a few seconds. After a few seconds, sharp chisels materialized at the tips of the swaying, unfurling snow-white tentacles.

Qi An flapped his wings, his toes leaving the ground, and a dozen tentacles slammed down on the roof from all directions.

She simply ripped off that huge roof!

As soon as the outside soldiers rushed into the courtyard, the soldiers inside the building also rushed into the courtyard.

The commander raised his voice and shrieked, "Get out of the yard! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

The massive roof was thrown into the yard, concrete blocks shattered into pieces, and dust instantly engulfed the building, the yard, and everyone nearby!

The earth trembled and shook, and the soldiers looked up in shock through the smoke and dust.

Looking up, I found that I had quite a few companions around me.

After the "Ash Priest" lifted the roof, it seemed to wait half a minute before smashing it down, giving them a little time to escape!

The confusion didn't last long, because the screams started again.

Qi An landed on the second-floor floor, his tentacles shattering the walls and entangling the highest-ranking officer in the room, who sat in his private office.

The officer's body trembled violently, his eyes fixed on the word "help".

But Qi An only shook his hand.

The man's terror abruptly ceased. In the midst of the chaos, he realized that he had made direct contact with the "Ash Priest's" humanoid limbs.

They've made contact! If he doesn't die, he'll have enough material to brag about for the rest of his life!

His thoughts weren't racing fast enough; he'd barely finished thinking about it when his hand was released.

The officer felt a moment of disappointment, but before he could even savor it, Qi An had already left him 800 miles away.

Qi An threw everyone on this floor out.

Her tentacles wrapped around two of the computer towers and crushed them!

Li Heng fainted twice more during the drone battle.

But when Qi An threw him away, he accidentally slapped him too. His forehead hit the wall, and the sharp pain jolted him awake.

"You still... you still save people... you still like being..."

The blood trickling from his forehead blurred Li Heng's vision, but it didn't cloud his mind. He saw through Qi An's intentions once again, and said in an extremely hoarse voice.

But before he could finish his weak and intermittent words, Qi An interrupted him with a flying tug.

Qi An pulled Li Heng behind him, dodging a barrage of bullets.

The bullets came from a nearby high-rise building. Several bullets were fired in quick succession, each hitting the same spot by only half an inch. The intention was to use this method of chiseling a stick with a nail to break the tentacle binding Li Heng!

As Qi An pulled Li Heng back, all eyes began to dart outwards.

Half a second later, she shot out three blade tentacles to her left front.

A very low "Ha!" could be heard coming from within the smoke and dust.

As the "Ha" sound faded away, a gentle breeze swept past to the right rear of Qi An, who had left the door wide open.

A person's hand seemed to appear out of thin air, its palm upright like a knife, slashing downwards!

After the "Ha!" came a breathless wait. In the command post, the commander-in-chief also kept his eyes glued to the drone reconnaissance screen!

Li Heng was already behind Qi An, with less than 10 centimeters of his tentacles dangling and taut in the air.

The palm blade was aimed precisely at that 10-centimeter area.

However, below the 10-centimeter tentacle, there is a hidden branch that flips upwards and cuts in the opposite direction!

The tentacle sliced ​​through the wrist of that arm, and the hand fell off.

A hoarse scream and a staggering backward movement greatly stirred up the airflow.

The man's figure was revealed.

He was a boy who also had the same face as Chen Xi.

The person who made the "ha" sound also revealed their identity in shock.

This person seemed to be able to shrink and mimic, a tiny ball curled up in the corner of the broken wall, looking no different from a concrete block at first glance.

This "ha" man, realizing what was happening, immediately tried to run away, but Qi An pierced his chest.

Qi An's other eye was fixed on the boy.

He is a clone; he didn't run away and is still carrying out his mission.

That's normal, Qi An thought.

Her announcement seemed rather vague, suspicious, and strange to the other clones besides Chen Xi and Lin Jiaran.

Not everyone will believe it, and those who do may not immediately take action.

Qi An originally intended to slit the boy's throat, but changed his mind at the last minute, instead slamming him against the wall and then violently throwing him away.

Qi An took a deep breath, gathered strength in his arms, and then threw a powerful punch!

She smashed two floors in a row!

There are several interrogation rooms on the basement floor of the small building. The interrogation room where Qi An landed happened to be where Qin Tianshuo was being held.

Qin Tianshuo sat in the interrogation chair, looking as if he had just been unearthed, half-buried in dust.

He opened his mouth wide and accidentally swallowed some dust and gravel. He instinctively spat it out, but his eyes remained blank.

Qi An couldn't help but laugh. She grabbed the interrogator and touched him, finally letting out her last breath.

Qin Tianshuo and his companion were arrested while setting up a portable signal jammer in the woods.

There were more than just the two of them, but only the two of them went in that direction to set things up, so only the two of them were trapped.

Less than an hour had passed since the two were arrested.

Tying people up, loading them into the vehicle, and transporting them all take time, so the formal interrogation of the two men only lasted 10 minutes.

The people upstairs had just removed the memory cards from the reconnaissance and combat drones, inserted them into their computers, and were about to export the video of the capture of Qin Tianshuo and his companion.

Qi An crushed the computer.

At this moment, Qi An also smashed the tablet in the interrogation room and used a blade tentacle to cut off Qin Tianshuo's handcuffs and the small table below them.

Next, she needs to find the source device that stores the real-time surveillance footage of the interrogation room, destroy that area again, and draw away all the soldiers' firepower and attention.

After that, she killed Li Heng and left.

Before leaving, she would assess the situation. If the danger wasn't too great, she would cause a scene at the nearest city gate to try and create an opportunity for Qin Tianshuo and the clones who wanted to leave.

After confirming that Qin Tianshuo was unharmed and alive and kicking, Qi An turned around and mouthed to Qin Tianshuo before turning away, "Let's go."

A silent admonition and a loud shout that shakes the surrounding area are the same thing.

She wanted to protect them and get them out safely.

However, some things seem to be forever different.

Qin Tianshuo gradually snapped out of his daze. He immediately jumped back a bit. Since he had no weapon at hand, he simply grabbed the interrogation chair and assumed a fighting stance in the corner.

Qi An was taken aback.

"You actually still want to save people." Li Heng let out a hoarse laugh:

Do you like being a hero?

Who recognizes you as a hero?

You're nothing but a fallen insect.

Lin Jiaran hadn't left yet, and the chaos in her mind was a hundred times, a thousand times, more chaotic than when she was struggling with whether or not to defect a few days ago!

Completely lost and bewildered, she could only follow her instincts and head towards this chaotic area.

Chen Xi arrived even earlier, but when he heard Qi An's voice and was about to rush towards her, he paused for a second.

Li Heng's words deepened the confusion and struggle in Qin Tianshuo's already complicated gaze, but he still followed a soldier's instinct, flashed forward, and picked up a pistol that had fallen ten meters away.

The gun barrel was pointed at Qi An.

Qi An remained stunned for quite a while.

In that moment of stunned silence, a red light, a silent red light, emanating from a tower in the corner of the eastern city wall, tore through the night and pierced through everything! It gently touched Qi An's back.

A huge hole appeared in the upper half of the woman's torso.

She didn't react in time and lowered her head.

Through the hole, she could also see Li Heng, who had also been cut off, to her side and behind.

Qi An staggered forward a step and knelt down on the ground.

At the edge of that enormous hollow, the flesh and blood looked just like ashes after a raging fire.

The ashes still had a terrifying temperature, and they were still like living things, devouring upwards!

This is a high-energy laser cannon! Wounds from high-energy laser beams cannot heal!

Qi An collapsed.

A roar of cheers erupted in the command center!

The commander-in-chief, who was personally directing the operation, slammed his hand on the table, unable to suppress a smile.

He only glanced up from the screen for a few seconds to join in the cheers. Then, he immediately looked back at the screen.

The commander-in-chief, examining Li Heng's injuries, felt a sliver of hope—hoping that the laser beam had hit Li Heng even more severely, to the point of being beyond saving...

That risky strategy of using drones to cut the tentacles in mid-air always has some basis in reality.
