"It's now!"

Er Long, waiting for the right moment from a high vantage point, brightened his eyes and pulled the rifle's trigger to the bottom.

Tat.. tatatat...

More than a dozen rifles fired simultaneously from above, instantly blasting three of the fusion creature's five arm-tentacles into minced flesh.

"Still trying to run?"

Cheng Ye swiftly reloaded and fired again, another shot.

Bang.

The explosive fire wave engulfed the monster. The junior fusion body didn't even get close to the defense line before it was reduced to shredded meat in the flames.

However, just as the debris was falling, a dark shadow suddenly dashed out from the alleyway!

A massive maw opened, swallowing all the fragments into its belly.

Visible to the naked eye, the five tentacles on the back of the shadow trembled slightly, and a new tentacle was drawn from its body!

It's that advanced fusion body!

"As expected, infected bodies killed by explosions will be reabsorbed."

Cheng Ye wasn't surprised.

The intelligence didn't mention this, but he personally witnessed the evolutionary devouring after the explosion.

The sender of the intelligence must have feared that knowing this would make him reluctant, unable to kill even one fusion body.

Instead of worrying about the advanced fusion body continuously absorbing and growing stronger, it's better to blast the two bothersome junior fusion bodies to death first.

"Ignore it, focus on the ones behind!"

At this moment, there's no time for anyone to think deeply. The six-tentacled fusion body finished absorbing the fragments and disappeared into the alley again, yet the fusion bodies from behind had already attacked.

The dense sound of tentacle impacts was drawing nearer, the frontline shifted again.

Cheng Ye glanced at the defense communication device on his waist and called over Huang Sheng, handing him the rocket launcher.

"You'll fire later, I'll create the opportunity for you!"

"Alright!"

Not knowing what kind of opportunity Cheng Ye meant, Huang Sheng could only take a deep breath to suppress all his apprehension.

Thud.

The fusion body clinging to the wall closed in rapidly, two tentacles raised.

But just as the group opened fire, a thick black-yellow liquid gushed from the monster's mouth.

Four or five hotel militia members, unable to dodge in time, were covered by the liquid, instantly collapsing, red and soft like charcoal.

"Dammit, it's dual mutation!"

Brother Meng shouted, eyes blood-red, grabbing a machine gun to fire madly.

The bullets formed a continuous line, yet the fusion body cunningly avoided prolonged combat, retreating behind the building after spraying the liquid.

What now?

"I'll do it!"

Understanding the limitation of humanity in fighting fusion bodies, only being able to form defensive fronts passively, initiating an offense was much harder.

Cheng Ye didn't hesitate for a moment, equipping the Iron Body while grabbing Thunder 1 in his hand, charging past the defense line toward the back of the street without a second thought.

Life-and-death battles change, reactive or proactive, in a heartbeat.

Yet, at this very moment, a dark shadow, seemingly waiting in ambush for a long time, descended wrathfully and hideously from the sky.

Six tentacles bunched together, carrying a mighty force to crush, seemingly about to smash Cheng Ye into pulp completely.

"Beast, I've been waiting for you!"

With the fusion body's intelligence, it wouldn't understand that hiding would still be detected by a drone's heat signature.

That so-called disguise is like a child covering their eyes, thinking they've fooled the world.

Bang, bang, bang bang!

Cheng Ye roared in anger, his control over his body through the Iron Body allowing him to abruptly halt his charge.

The gun barrel instantly turned, pulling the trigger in the direction of the approaching shadow.

Blinding sparks erupted. From four to six tentacles, this advanced fusion body's defense had strengthened by at least fifty percent!

The Deer Bullets, once easily breaking through defenses, were largely deflected, only piercing through the weak points between the body's fascia, leaving fine, dense holes.

"Die, die!"

The excruciating pain drove the fusion body completely frantic, pouncing forward heedlessly.

But the next second, a silver orb rapidly enlarged before its eyes, and at the moment of contact...

Bang!

It wasn't Thunder 1's gunfire but a high-explosive grenade's fierce detonation!

A terrifying shockwave blasted out from before the fusion body, even hurling Cheng Ye meters away effortlessly.

Clink clank clink clank...

Dense shrapnel whistled toward him, forcing him to protect his head with his arms, relying on his battle armor to withstand the impact, his entire being crashing into a street-side trash can like a meteor, tumbling several times before barely halting.

"Captain!"

"Sir!"

The moment shocked cries erupted from behind the line, Huang Sheng gritted his teeth and fiercely pulled the rocket launcher's trigger.

Though he didn't understand how Cheng Ye predicted the fusion body's timing of appearance, this moment was undoubtedly the optimal time to fire!

Boom!

The armor-piercing rocket exploded at an extremely close range.

The blast wave harshly flung several nearby militia members from the line, their survival uncertain.

But in this situation, no one cared about casualties.

Because if this monster isn't killed, the dead wouldn't just be a few people, but hundreds, the entire Zone B-7.

Tat tat tat tat.

The smoke hadn't yet dispersed when all firepower was unleashed frenziedly.

Bullets poured down like torrential rain onto the explosion's center, no one caring about the monster's state amidst the smoke, only the resolute roar of unloading the magazine.

Taking this gap, the concealed spitting infected body showed itself again, a mass of thick black-yellow liquid spewing out forcefully.

The mall militia guarding the street's end desperately attempted to dodge, yet more than ten were still splashed, their bodies immediately corroding with fist-sized holes.

"Damn it, fire!"

Long and Er Long were crazed with bloodlust, everyone wildly pulling triggers as if driven mad.

Huang Sheng also loaded the second rocket.

But just as he prepared to pull the trigger, a shadow flickered in the smoke, and the advanced fusion body escaped again!

Despite having only three tentacles left of its original six and half its body blown apart by the explosive round and rockets, it still hadn't reached fatal conditions, able to recover by consuming flesh and blood.
