"Ready, fire." Qin Yan gave the order again.
After the bombs were fired, the soldiers began firing continuously.
Bang bang bang... A hail of bullets, and sparks even illuminated most of the small villa.
"Qin Yan, I hope you have enough bullets."
Amidst the piercing gunshots, Min Qiu's warning clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
“We’ve fallen out, it’s reached the point of no return. If I can’t take her down today, Min Qiu will definitely retaliate tenfold.” Qin Yan silently glanced around at the people in Zhou. “They are innocent, and I can’t let my decision cost them their lives.”
"Xiao Li, has the XT69TY from the research institute arrived yet?"
"The people over there said it's still a two-minute walk," Xiao Li said.
"I understand. Tell them to come as soon as possible, really quickly."
After Qin Yan finished speaking, he closed his eyes and actively mobilized his supernatural power.
Ten minutes later, the ordinary soldiers' guns were reduced to piles of scrap metal.
"Hehehe... that's it."
Amidst the black smoke, a chilling laugh echoed, as cold as snow.
"Now it's my turn to make a move."
As soon as Min Qiu finished speaking, the soldier standing at the front screamed, clutched his neck, and fell to the ground unwillingly.
"Attention! Attention!" the commander at the rear shouted through a megaphone.
"Nangong Xuan, your ability level is high, go deal with those ability users. Here's a piece of advice: when you kill, be ruthless and quick, and don't let your heart be filled with compassion."
“I’m not you.” Nangong Xuan’s gaze fell on the rear of the army.
Min Qiu ignored Nangong Xuan's teasing and patiently told the high-ranking Tang Tang that when fighting ordinary people, one must be careful and not underestimate them. Although they do not have superpowers, their strong physique and extensive combat experience are enough to make them stand out from the crowd.
"Yes, Sister Qiu, I understand," Tang Tang said obediently.
After assigning the tasks, Min Qiu suddenly rushed out.
With a loud crash, the neatly arranged ranks crumbled and scattered like loose sand.
"Commander, Min Qiu is too powerful, we can't hold him off any longer."
Qin Yan was troubled and burdened with heavy responsibilities, but unexpectedly broke through to become a level five ability user.
"Commander, you..."
"Don't worry, they won't be arrogant for long."
Qin Yan unbuttoned his military jacket and tossed it casually on the ground.
"Commander, are you going to go into battle personally?" Xiao Li hugged Qin Yan, "Commander, you are the commander of an army, how can you personally go into battle? If something happens to you, what will we do if there is no one to command the army?"
Qin Yan grabbed Xiao Li by the collar, pulled hard, and threw him down.
"Commander, Commander, Commander..." Qin Yan ignored him. Xiao Li was furious. "You all follow him and protect the Commander at all costs."
"Yes." The four level-four ability users quietly followed Qin Yan's footsteps.
At this moment, Qin Yan faced off against Min Qiu.
"Qin Yan, you're reluctant to come out." Min Qiu didn't waste any words and went all out. Qin Yan, who was exerting all his strength, couldn't withstand his attack.
With extensive burns, Qin Yan was on the verge of death.
"Commander." The four level-four ability users arrived a step too late.
"You help the commander heal his wounds, and we'll hold off Min Qiu."
The ability user who was left behind was a wood-type ability user.
The three stepped forward, and Min Qiu glanced at them out of the corner of her eye, sending out a dense barrage of golden needles. The needles were as fast as lightning, and before the three could react, their bodies were riddled with holes.
"Chen Ji, Zhong Chu, Liu Tu." Qin Yan was so angry that he vomited blood.
"Min Qiu, you devil, I will definitely avenge my brother."
Qin Yan, who always kept the collective interest in mind, was just an ordinary person.
"Commander, let's go. As long as we're alive, we can always rebuild." The wood-type ability user ignored Qin Yan's objections and forcibly dragged him out of the battlefield.
Min Qiu wanted to press her advantage, but there were countless people who didn't know their place.
"Commander, you..." Only a minute or two had passed by, and the commander had suffered a life-threatening injury. Xiao Li's eyes were red with remorse.
"Xiao Li, has the XT69TY been delivered yet?"
Qin Yan's face was burned on one side, and his lips opened and closed, pulling at the wound.
"We've arrived." Xiao Li pointed to the large box behind him.
"Very good, ready to use."
"But..." Xiao Li was a little worried.
"It's alright. The researchers said that xt69ty will only put the superhuman into a short sleep, and they won't be able to use their abilities for a month. It won't endanger their lives."
Xiao Li moved his lips. In the perilous apocalypse, would using supernatural abilities really not endanger his life?
Well, the army commander is wise and capable; he can't be wrong.
Xiao Li shook his head and diligently carried out Qin Yan's orders.
Upon opening the box, the xt69ty was revealed.
xt69ty is a balloon-like object containing a transparent liquid. Upon closer inspection, tiny, insect-like microorganisms can be seen swimming within the liquid.
Xiao Li rubbed his hands together and stuffed the xt69ty into a large transmitter.
"Commander, here you go." Xiao Li handed the launcher's starter to Qin Yan.
