In the eyes of Knight Wang En, his response was already extremely swift.
Moreover, Lin Xu is just a commoner island lord. Even if he has some strength, at a distance of several hundred meters, there might not be any weapon that can attack him.
However, no sooner had Wang En given his order than the roar of weapons began to sound.
Unfortunately, it wasn't the machine guns on Wang En Island that opened fire, but rather the sudden burst of fire from firearms on Lin Xu Island.
The rapid-fire bullets from the rotary machine gun were so spectacular that Wang En and the combat slaves on his island were stunned and wide-eyed.
The bullets accurately swept across the ten machine guns on one side of Wang En Island, and six of the machine guns were directly blasted and twisted, rendering them unusable.
The other four machine guns, being standard machine guns with thick steel plates for protection, could not be directly hit at their weak points by rotating the machine guns, only leaving them slightly damaged.
"Fight back! Fight back!"
Wang En was struck dumb, his whole body trembled, he lost his knightly composure, and roared as he gave the order.
The slaves with the four machine guns suddenly awoke and adjusted the cannons to fire at Lin Xu's island.
The next moment, machine guns roared, and four loud explosions suddenly rang out.
Lin Xu frowned and prepared to tell the women to get ready for the explosion.
Most of the blocks on his island are immune to this bombardment, but the peach tree is a weak point.
Before the battle, he had already arranged for the girls, including Tao Yao, to surround the peach tree with heavy steel plates.
With the elves' ever-growing strength, they should be able to withstand this bombardment.
However, the explosion that Lin Xu had anticipated did not occur. At the same time that the four machine guns successfully fired their shells, the machine guns and rotary machine guns on Lin Xu's island also changed their angles.
In an instant, machine guns and cannons also fired simultaneously.
Boom boom boom boom!
Four loud explosions rang out, but they came from the void between the two islands.
Lin Xu couldn't help but widen his eyes, while Wang En on the opposite island exclaimed in surprise:
"That's impossible!"
Lin Xu looked at Xiao Yu beside him as if he had seen a ghost.
That move just now must have been Xiaoyu adjusting her weapon angle as soon as the enemy machine gun fired, intercepting the shell in mid-air.
But those are cannonballs!
The machine guns on Knight Island are standard-issue machine guns, far superior in quality to the junk that Qin Liang and his group used. The projectiles fired by these weapons are currently far faster than the average person can react to.
Even if Lin Xu believed he had a fast reaction time and his mind had been enhanced through life sublimation, there was absolutely no way he could dodge the cannonballs.
Not to mention predicting the trajectory of the shell while firing and detonating it directly with a gun.
However, the situation just now clearly showed that Xiaoyu had actually done it.
Moreover, she detonated four shells at the same time, causing them to explode in mid-air.
Noticing Lin Xu's gaze, Xiao Yu did not turn her head, but kept her eyes fixed on the situation on Knight Island.
She said in a very serious tone:
“Master, I don’t have the reaction speed of a cannonball, but I calculated the firing angle and trajectory of those machine guns before they fired, which is why I was able to successfully intercept them. If it were an accidental shelling, I wouldn’t be able to do this.”
Lin Xu suddenly realized.
It turns out it relied on prediction.
Xiaoyu didn't react instantly when the shell was fired; she had prepared in advance.
Even so, it still requires extremely strong computing power.
Only someone like Xiaoyu, who possesses five hundred thoughts and has extremely strong calculation and perception abilities, could accomplish such a thing.
Nowadays, Xiaoyu is becoming more and more proficient in using various abilities.
Whether it's Xiaoyu or Taoyao, these elves are actually quite hardworking, and their daily progress is visibly increasing.
This was, after all, a battle, so Lin Xu resisted the urge to pat Xiaoyu's head and simply nodded, saying:
"well done!"
Although Xiaoyu didn't say anything and her expression was blank, her face was already slightly flushed, clearly appreciating Lin Xu's praise.
At this point, Lin Xu's island was very close to Knight Island.
While speaking, Xiaoyu did not stop operating the weapons to attack. The remaining four machine guns were also destroyed by her. There were ten more machine guns on the other side of Knight Island, but they were also destroyed by Xiaoyu's pinpoint fire.
At this moment, Xiaoyu was focusing her attention on the turbine propellers of Knight Island.
She was to carry out Lin Xu's orders and completely destroy Knight Island's mobility.
Lin Xu looked down at the knight Wang En and noticed that the other was also looking at him.
Wang En's eyes were practically spitting fire as he glared at Lin Xu with resentment.
You'll regret this!
As Wang En said this, he suddenly waved his hand.
Behind him, many combat slaves rushed out of the underground building.
Compared to Qin Liang and his men, Wang En had a much larger number of combat slaves, at least two hundred.
Moreover, these people are well-equipped, wearing high-end bulletproof vests and carrying various firearms.
After these people appeared, they formed a combat squad and began firing directly at Lin Xu's island.
The bullets' primary targets were Lin Xu and Xiao Yu, who was standing next to him.
Lin Xu had already sensed danger the moment these people appeared.
He put one arm around Xiaoyu and pushed her to a place where the slaves behind him couldn't see her.
Xiaoyu can sense her surroundings with her wind-based abilities, and even if her vision is obstructed, it does not affect her ability to use weapons.
After settling Xiaoyu in, Lin Xu called out:
"Tao Yao, it's your turn to go on stage!"
In the distance, Tao Yao laughed with delight, and with a flick of her wrist, she threw the two heavy iron plates she was carrying in her left and right hands onto the ground.
"Hahaha, Master's first spirit, Peach Blossom, is it finally time for you to show your strength!"
Tao Yao smiled excitedly as she flew to the edge of the island, and two large peaches appeared in her two small hands.
She turned her gaze to the slave warriors below, her small face becoming serious:
"Anyone who dares to lay a hand on their master, go to hell!"
As she said this, Tao Yao suddenly shot out the peaches in her left and right hands, rushing into the slave warriors below at great speed.
This move is Tao Yao's only combat skill: Peach Bomb.
The next moment, the two large peaches that had been shot out exploded with a bang.
Before the slave warriors could even react, they were blown to bits.
As Xiaoyu's vitality continues to increase, the power of her skills naturally becomes stronger as well.
Peach bombs can now fly at least 200 meters, and their blast radius has more than doubled.
This attack wiped out at least thirty slave warriors; even though these warriors were well-equipped, they still couldn't withstand such an explosion.
Wang En, who had initially wanted to see Lin Xu riddled with bullets, suddenly widened his eyes in surprise:
"How is this possible! How could a mere commoner possess such power!"
Wang En couldn't see Tao Yao from his angle; he only saw two large peaches fly out, and then his men went wild.
At this moment, his anger surged and his fighting spirit intensified.
But he had received professional combat training and wasn't a combat idiot.
He could see that Lin Xu's firepower and methods were too strong, and he, the Knight Island Lord, was actually having trouble keeping up.
Moreover, although he was willing to use any means to resist and see if Lin Xu really had that kind of strength, he remembered a thing that Chen Shaojie had specifically instructed him to do before this trip.
Compared to Chen Shaojie's important matters, the survival of his island, or the humiliation of losing to civilians, was not so important.
Thinking of this, Wang En glared hatefully at Lin Xu's island:
"I'll let you off this time, but once I hand over the goods to Young Master Chen, I'll definitely bring people to wash away today's humiliation!"
As he said this, Wang En actually abandoned his men and turned to rush towards an inconspicuous hut in a corner of his island.
The house was covered in mud and looked dilapidated.
But after Wang En entered the room, he immediately pressed a button.
The next moment, the hut changed shape, and all the surrounding soil fell away, revealing the alloy-made main body inside.
Wang En pushed a lever inside the house.
Flames suddenly erupted beneath the hut, sending it hurtling rapidly away into the distance of the island.
Xiaoyu's voice rang in Lin Xu's ears:
"Master, that human knight seems to have escaped..."
