Chapter 96: Physical Strength (I)

The groups of carts stretched over dozens of meters and moved forward slowly. The wooden wheels made a crunching sound as they moved along the gravel road.

A guard in the group suddenly pointed at a distant mountain peak and said, Eh? Is that someone who has come to receive the goods? There's someone watching us from that mountain peak.

When the leader of the group heard this, he turned to look in the direction he was pointing in. A person was indeed staring at them from a mountain peak a few kilometers away.

Stop! the leader shouted.

His shout could be heard throughout the entire group, and even Chen Yiming, who was a few kilometers away, heard it.

The group was instantly thrown into chaos. Some of the drivers who had been pushing the carts were in a daze from the long journey and could not react in time, so they bumped into the drivers in front of them.

The drivers who had been hit turned around and cursed at the people behind them.

That person isn't the one who is supposed to receive the goods, a thin man reported as he jogged over to the leader.

Where is the person who is supposed to receive the goods? the leader asked.

The thin man looked at the time and replied, They'll be here in half an hour, at the time we agreed on.

The leader nodded and looked in Chen Yiming's direction. He realized that the figure was still there.

The leader's expression was ugly as he said in a low voice, Strange, why didn't he appear right at this timing? Such a thing happened as soon as we reached the location of the exchange.

Could it be an investigator sent by the inspection team? the thin man whispered.

The leader of the group looked hesitant and fell silent for a long time, unable to make a decision.

He had the same suspicion in his heart, and was constantly weighing whether to chase after and kill that person.

The people in charge of the search were not weak, and the reservoir was surrounded by dense forest. Once they chased after him, he could easily escape into the forest.

At this moment, it was neither too long or too short a time before the agreed timing. They might not be able to catch up to that person in half an hour.

In addition, who knew if the other party was trying to deliberately lure away the main force of the team?

Boss, after this, why don't we hide in the secret base and observe the situation for a while? the thin man suggested quietly.

The leader's heart sank when he heard this, and the balance was instantly broken.

If they wanted to hide in the secret base, he had to clean up the mess behind him first.

The person in front of him had to be chased down and killed. Otherwise, if he continued to trail behind the team, he would bring along an endless stream of pursuers.

Half of you, bring your guns and follow me to chase after that person, the leader raised his saber high in the air and instructed.

More than 30 guards stood forward. They lifted the plastic cover and threw aside the second layer of miscellaneous items that were used as camouflage, revealing the real goods in the carts.

These were rifles that were each more than a meter long.

Everyone, follow me and spread out. Try your best to surround that mountain. If that person escapes, just shoot him, the leader said loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he led the way and charged at Chen Yiming. More than 30 guards quickly followed suit.

The entire team fanned out and launched a pincer attack.

From afar, each figure was the size of a black dot, and it looked like a group of ants were surging out of an ant nest.

The silence in the forest was broken.

Many of the mutant beasts that were secretly observing the situation quickly hid themselves, and the flying mutant beasts in the sky flapped their wings and flew far away.

When Chen Yiming saw the guns in the cart, he immediately thought of the matter of the missing firearms in Nightwater City. He was shocked to see the group charging at him.

Are they mistaking me for someone investigating the theft of firearms?

As someone in the warrior realm, he was comparable to the head of a top faction in East Lake City.

If these people did not provoke him, he would not have bothered getting involved in such troublesome matters. After all, since it involved the theft from the armory, there was bound to be a lot going on behind the scenes.

Why don't I just kill them here and rid the country of these criminals?Chen Yiming thought to himself.

In an instant, he leaped into the air, drawing an arc in the air as he fell towards the group charging at him.

A look of surprise appeared in the eyes of the people charging at him.

Was this person stupid?

Shouldn't he be fleeing in the other direction?

Stop, line up and fire together, the leader turned around and shouted.

The 30-odd guards stopped in their tracks almost at the same time, and then took less than three seconds to line up in two rows.

The first row of people squatted down, while the second row of people stood in position. More than 30 rifles were raised and aimed at the spot where Chen Yiming had landed.

Boom!

A loud sound rang out, causing the eardrums of everyone nearby to hurt.

An invisible shockwave appeared on the ground, turning into ripples that spread out in all directions, accompanied by a large amount of dust.

Chen Yiming leaped up and landed on the ground to the side.

His expression was calm as he stared at the 30-odd people who were pointing their guns at him. Behind him was a huge pit more than three meters wide.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

More than 30 gunshots rang out at the same time.

Sparks spewed from the end of the metal bullets as they shot out at high speed from the muzzles, aiming straight for Chen Yiming.

The bullets traveled at a speed of hundreds of meters per second. In the blink of an eye, they had arrived in front of Chen Yiming, completely sealing off all routes of escape.

The leader smiled and said in a low voice, Perhaps less than 10 rifles can't do anything to you, but with more than 30 rifles firing at the same time, let's see where you can hide.

If it was someone at the level of the warrior realm, he would have internal force covering his entire body to protect himself.

But if he was below the warrior realm, the human body had several weak spots, such as the eyes, nose, and ears. It was impossible to withstand the combined attack from dozens of rifles.

Chen Yiming's internal force was about to seep out of his body. He realized that he couldn't take it head-on unless he was willing to reveal his true level.

No wonder the army is still the main force against the creatures from the otherworld.

Those below the warrior realm would not be able to fight against an organized army.

Only by cultivating internal force could one truly become extraordinary and be completely different from ordinary people.

Chen Yiming remained calm. With his enhanced vision from the warrior realm, he could easily make out the trajectory of the bullets.

He leaped lightly and flew out, dodging the barrage of metal bullets.

At the same time, he clamped his fingers together and grabbed a flying bullet. While he was still in midair, he threw the bullet towards the group.

Ah! a scream came from the group.

A bullet pierced through the space between the brows of one of the guards, and he fell to the ground.

Stay calm and don't panic. Continue firing, the leader shouted, suppressing the panic rising in the team.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Another round of gunshots rang out.

The second round was different from the first. The gunshots were no longer firing with the same rhythm, and the group was firing completely at will.

Chen Yiming was as calm as ever. He casually took a few steps to the side and dodged the bullets again. At the same time, he grabbed two flying bullets with his hands and threw them at the group facing him.

The next moment, two more people from the group fell to the ground.

This Everyone was stunned. No one dared to shoot at him again.

The other party had easily dodged two consecutive rounds of shots, but their side had lost three people.

If one of them continued to fire, he might be the next to fall.
