Almost the instant he opened his mouth, Ye Li immediately followed up with, "Are you threatening me?"

Charles looked at Ye Li, completely unfazed by the blade so close to his face.

Instead, he said with a disdainful look, "I know you, I know you're very capable. You didn't think I came here to chat with you guys without any preparation, did you?"

Before Charles could finish speaking, a loud rumble came from the lighthouse.

Immediately afterwards, a shell fell from the sky and landed precisely on a survivor's car, exploding.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, the terrifying shockwave instantly flipped the car over to the ground, shattering all the windows.

A shocking dent appeared on the roof of the car.

Holy crap!

In the crowd, a survivor roared and quickly ran towards the blown-up car.

That's right, it was his car that got blown up.

"Buzz~"

"Buzz~"

"Click~"

"Click~"

“…”

“…”

From the lighthouse, a series of unusual sounds came one after another.

With his superhuman eyesight, Ye Li could vaguely see several cannons aimed at their area below the lighthouse.

"The shells just now were just an appetizer. If you Earthlings don't know what's good for you, next time, even stronger firepower will come down."

Charles spoke slowly, his words filled with a strong sense of threat.

"this……"

"what to do?"

"Why don't we retreat first?"

"Anyway, this has nothing to do with us... there's no need for us to get involved!"

"..."

The survivors around them panicked when they heard Charles's words.

They had all witnessed the power of that shot.

If this were shot on a person, not only would they not be able to find a complete corpse, but they wouldn't even be able to find a scrap of flesh.

"Hmph hmph hmph..."

Seeing the survivors' hesitant expressions, Charles sneered and said:

"Humans are nothing special!"

Upon hearing his words, the survivors, who had been thinking of retreating, suddenly glared angrily.

Ye Li asked, "Do you think my blade is faster, or your cannon?"

Before Charles could answer, Hiro shouted, "Which do you think is faster, your knife or my gun?"

Upon hearing this, Charles frowned, turned to look at Hiro, and rebuked him, "Who gives you the right to speak here?"

Ye Li stared at Charles, who was wearing a mythical-grade dragon scale armor that could withstand even the closest-range explosions from Voidwalkers. He didn't take these ordinary cannonballs seriously at all.

However, Li Qingge, Bai Yuekui, Little Stone Monkey, and Jiji were also by her side.

Their protective capabilities were somewhat inadequate against the power of the shells they had just encountered.

Charles looked at Ye Li again and asked, "Earthling, think it through. If she comes with me, nothing will happen!"

"Then let's give it a try!"

Ye Li said in a deep voice.
