Sanxingdui, the deepest part.

Qiao Zan stared at the now-defunct teleportation array and roared angrily, "A bunch of good-for-nothings, good-for-nothings!"

His men were trembling with fear.

"General!" A trusted aide mustered his courage, stepped forward, and knelt down. "I'll lead men to retrieve the crystal core right away! You, come with me!"

Qiao Zan's gaze was icy as he swept over the crowd. "If you can't take it, you don't need to come back!"

"yes!"

All his men left, leaving only Qiao Zan.

He slowly raised his arms, forming a strange hand seal, and a majestic voice echoed in his mind: "Why shut down the teleportation?"

"My lord, there's been a minor issue." Fear flashed in Qiao Zan's eyes. "The teleportation array will reopen in at most an hour."

"I'll wait for you for another hour!"

The sound disappeared, and Qiao Zan, covered in cold sweat, rushed towards the portal.

He pulled out a crystal core riddled with cracks, a cold smile playing on his lips. "Let's get a few experts over here to help!"

Sizzle!

A gigantic figure appeared in the portal...

At the small crystal nucleus.

Just as Li Tianyi and his men set up their temporary defensive position, they felt the ground tremble.

"Prepare for battle!"

Everyone immediately loaded their guns and aimed at the entrance to the passage.

In less than ten seconds, a steady stream of ancient Shu people appeared, accompanied by alien mad dogs.

"Fire!"

As soon as the special operations battalion opened fire, the enemy tightened their formation, using rabid dogs as human shields to launch a frenzied counterattack.

The ancient Shu people's laser weapons were very effective and extremely damaging, quickly filling the passageway with corpses.

If they want to get closer, they have to push the corpse aside.

Li Tianyi seized the opportunity and had the sniper aim at the weapon pouch on the corpse's waist.

boom!

Green light flashed wildly, hitting many enemies who couldn't dodge in time, who cried out in pain.

"Good job, keep it up!" Li Tianyi felt much relieved and slowly moved to Luo Feiyu's side. "Do you have any special explosives, or high-explosive shells, white phosphorus bombs, or anything like that?"

Luo Feiyu looked at the warehouse manager.

"Battalion Commander, we have a high-explosive bomb we got from the Japanese!" The warehouse manager pulled out a small bomb with a skull and crossbones drawn on it. "I don't know what kind of bomb it is, but I thought it might come in handy, so I brought it over!"

Li Tianyi took it, carefully read the instructions, and cold sweat poured down his temples. "This is a small nuclear bomb!"

Everyone was shocked.

"You son of a bitch, are you trying to kill us?" the soldiers cursed angrily.

"He didn't want to kill us, he actually helped us a lot!" Li Tianyi smiled knowingly and put away the small nuclear bomb. "You guys stay here and wear them down. I'll find a way to sneak in and blow up their teleportation array."

A demolition expert snatched the nuclear bomb and said with a smile, "Even though you are a war god, you can't steal the credit from us demolition experts."

Immediately afterwards, three more demolition soldiers rushed out and protected him in the center.

"Battalion Commander, please tell our families: the kids have become heroes!"

The four men smiled faintly, saluted, and rushed off in another direction, quickly disappearing from sight.

Luo Feiyu and Luo Lin both saluted with tears in their eyes and choked with emotion.

The soldiers were also filled with resentment, and they vented their anger on the ancient Shu people, whose corpses had already piled up like mountains.

"Charge forward regardless of the cost!" said the squad leader of the ancient Shu people.

The mad dog charged again, smashing through the mountain of corpses with brute force, and ran wildly toward the defensive position.

"Focus fire! Focus fire!"

The special operations battalion soldiers immediately carried out the order, and the rabid dogs in the front row fell one after another.

However, no matter how fiercely they fought, they remained fearless and rapidly closed the distance between them.

"We can't hold out like this, even if we fight to the death!" Li Tianyi pointed to the small crystal core. "Destroy it, then we retreat!"

"good!"

Several soldiers immediately rushed to the small crystal core and began to plant high explosives.

As time went on, the enemy was within reach, and the special operations battalion was mentally prepared for hand-to-hand combat.

"withdraw!"

Li Tianyi covered everyone's retreat.

The enemy is also accelerating.

Both sides were racing against time, but the special operations battalion had a slight advantage, as the vast majority of its soldiers had already evacuated the area.

Those soldiers who did not retreat engaged in fierce fighting with the enemy.

Boom!

Explosions kept coming from behind...

On the other side.

The four men carrying small nuclear bombs have reached the depths of Sanxingdui, where the surroundings are unusually quiet.

"Be careful!" he said with a look.

The three nodded and formed a battle formation to explore forward.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the center. However, they felt a soft, yielding sensation under the feet of the person diagonally to their left. They thought to themselves, "This is bad!"

"You guys get out of here!" he shouted, stomping his feet on the ground. "I stepped on a landmine!"

The two comrades immediately turned back to try and remove the landmine.

"Time is running out, don't worry about me, hurry up and blow up the enemy's teleportation array!" The soldier forced a smile. "We never planned to come back alive, let's go!"

With tears in their eyes and fists clenched, the three ran deeper into the area.

Only after his comrades had completely disappeared did the soldier who stepped on the landmine slowly bend down and carefully check his feet.

The moment my hand touched the lightning, a beeping sound rang out.

boom!

A beam of green light shot out in all directions, leaving holes several meters deep in the walls.

At a great distance, the three running people immediately stopped, tears streaming down their faces.

"He sacrificed himself for us. Everyone, cheer up and we must blow up the enemy's teleportation array!" said the oldest person.

"yes!"

The three immediately accelerated and rushed towards the deepest part.

I don't know how much time passed, but I could vaguely see a six-pointed star array in front of me.

"Cover me, I'm going to blow it up!" said the older man.

The two immediately went on alert.

He had just approached the hexagram array and hadn't even had time to pull out his small nuclear bomb when he felt a chill on his neck.

A spurt of blood gushed out.

The air in front of him flickered, and a mantis monster appeared, its hand piercing through his chest once more.

Then, the mantis monster disappeared.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The two special operations soldiers had no time to react. When they were about to fire, they felt a sharp pain in their chests.

Wow, pfft!

at the same time.

The squad leader, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly opened his eyes and struggled to crawl toward the center of the six-pointed star array.

One of the soldiers happened to spot it and pulled hard on the mantis monster's hand blade.

Another soldier held him tightly as well.

"Squad leader, hurry, hurry!"

The squad leader had long since lost all hearing and was sustaining himself entirely through sheer willpower.

Finally, he arrived at the center position.

He struggled to pull out his pistol and fired at the small nuclear bomb.

No explosion occurred.

The squad leader roared and pulled the trigger repeatedly.

boom......

A small mushroom cloud rose into the air, instantly destroying the teleportation array and a large area, and a scorching shockwave rushed outwards.

The group of experts that Qiao Zan had painstakingly teleported over were swallowed up by the aftershocks before they could even see a human.

"I hate it, I hate it!" Qiao Zan collapsed to the ground, looking ten years older in an instant, his eyes unfocused and devoid of any fighting spirit.

A trusted aide slowly approached, "General, our situation is hopeless now, what should we do?"

"Going back is the same as dying!" Qiao Zan suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with venom as he stared outside Sanxingdui. "Gather the rest of you!"

"Yes, General!"

After his trusted aide left, Qiao Zan punched the wall and roared viciously, "Don't you guys like beheading commanders? I'll learn from you!"
