Zombie King: Picking up a baby at the beginning is the reincarnation of the empress

Chapter 346 Ji Ruxue Unleashes Her Power! Terrifying Strength!

Rumble~
Upon receiving the order, the surrounding armed forces immediately opened fire on Flame One in the air.

The snipers, positioned high above, pulled the triggers sharply, and one after another, sturdy bullets burst from the muzzles.

The soldiers carrying rocket launchers also aimed their scopes at Flame One. With a "boom," the rockets at the front transformed into streaks of fire in the air, flying at high speed and emitting a series of ear-piercing whistling sounds.

At the same time, the most numerous ordinary soldiers also raised their rifles and fired dense barrages of bullets.

The armored vehicles scattered around were firing their machine guns at high altitude, their thick muzzles spitting out streaks of fire. In addition, the armed helicopters flying above were also roaring with machine gun fire.

In an instant, the entire Hengye residential area was filled with smoke and the sound of gunfire was deafening; the sky seemed to darken at that moment.

Faced with such a dense barrage of attacks, even if Flame One could fly and move very fast, it wouldn't be able to dodge them all.

Fortunately, thanks to its fire spirit form, Flame One doesn't need to dodge all the attacks.

next moment.

Swish~

Under Lu Chuan's control, Flame One's fiery body darted and weaved rapidly in the air, preparing to dodge all the rockets and machine gun shells.

Amidst deafening roars, Flame One narrowly escaped the barrage of shells, facing a hail of bullets.

Bang bang bang~
With a series of rapid sounds, bullets pierced through the body of Flame One, creating holes the size of a thumb and sending sparks flying.

Unexpectedly, the holes left by the blast didn't last long; the surrounding flames spread over and quickly healed them.

Aside from the brief dimming of its aura, Flame One was completely unharmed.

Upon witnessing this, the human army present was stunned. No one had expected that this thing could be immune to physical attacks; it was truly...

For a moment, the gunfire on the field stopped abruptly while everyone was still stunned.

"What are you standing there for? Keep firing! Open fire! Open fire..."

The officer in charge on site realized what was happening and was about to issue the order to attack again.

Just then, a communications officer rushed over, saluted the officer, and said solemnly, "Sir, the latest order is that the troops must immediately withdraw from Hengye Residential Area and are not allowed to enter the area."

"What? We've only just engaged this fifth-tier evolved zombie, and now we're being told to retreat?"

Upon hearing this, the officer in charge of the operation looked at the other person in astonishment and said in disbelief.

Isn't this command changed a bit too quickly?

"Sorry, sir, this is a military order!"

The communications officer shook his head and said with a serious expression.

The officer was unwilling but helpless, and could only shout angrily into the walkie-talkie: "Attention all units, if any special circumstances occur, evacuate immediately!"

The soldiers below were completely baffled by this absurd order. They retreated as soon as the fighting started, as if they were just there to tickle the fire zombie.
However, military orders are absolute, and even if everyone had objections, they could only complain in their hearts and obediently withdrew from the battle and left the Hengye residential area.

Rumble~
The tanks and armored vehicles that had entered the residential area began to withdraw quickly and drove out of the gate.

Shortly after the troops withdrew, several kilometers away, the heavy artillery regiment's thirty-six self-propelled howitzers had been deployed and were awaiting the order to fire.

Upon seeing the human military suddenly withdraw, Lu Chuan frowned, a bad feeling immediately creeping into his heart.

What happened? Why did these humans just leave like that?
Moreover, these guys didn't seem to be retreating immediately; instead, they stopped moving once they reached the outside of the residential area, ceasing their attacks and seemingly waiting for something. "Why did they run away? Were they scared by Lu Chuan's evolved zombies?"

Zhao Lin looked up and gazed through the window at the empty and undamaged Flame One, wondering what was going on in her mind.

At this moment, inside the temporary command post outside the residential area, the commander was talking with the heavy artillery regiment.

"Sir, the heavy artillery regiment is fully deployed. Please give further instructions!"

A voice came over the intercom.

"Open fire immediately and bombard Hengye Residential Area. Give me at least two basic loads of ammunition. Don't be stingy; I'll replenish whatever you need later. Try to reduce Hengye Residential Area to ruins!"

The commander spoke with a serious expression and utmost solemnity.

"Yes!"

At that very moment, Lu Chuan, who was wondering why the human army had suddenly retreated, also realized the problem.

He detected artillery positions thousands of meters away using Flight One, which was high in the air.

Looking at those self-propelled howitzers, Lu Chuan's pupils instantly contracted.

Damn!

The next moment, Lu Chuan had a thought, and the undead puppets, including Undying No. 1 and Flame No. 1, which had long-range attack capabilities, began to charge up.

Meanwhile, outside the residential area, the commander in the hidden temporary command post also issued the order to attack at that moment.

"Fire!"

Boom boom boom~
Instantly, artillery roared, creating a deafening sound, as massive shells rapidly traversed thousands of meters and landed on Hengye Residential Area.

Lu Chuan, who witnessed this scene from the perspective of Flame One, had an extremely solemn expression. Each shot from these heavy cannons could kill at least all living things within a radius of 100 meters. Even Erpang in his current state probably couldn't withstand more than a few hits.

Boom~
In an instant, Flame One and the other corpse puppets took action, preparing to intercept the falling shells.

Flames erupted from Flame One, transforming into a giant hand ten meters wide, its flames blazing as it reached for the incoming shells.

boom! boom!
In an instant, the two adjacent, locked-in shells were caught by the fiery hand and exploded, sending terrifying flames soaring into the sky and creating a deafening roar.

The fleshy tentacles on the back of the Undying One triggered a series of lightning balls that exploded in the air, forming a lightning net with a diameter of ten meters, which instantly detonated seven or eight shells.

However, even with the corpse puppets going all out, they couldn't stop all the cannonballs. The cannonballs were too fast, giving the corpse puppets no chance to attack again.

Except for a small number that were detonated, most of the shells still managed to break through the corpse puppets' obstruction and were about to land within the residential area.
swoosh swish~
The terrifying shriek of falling shells sent chills down one's spine.

"It's over!"

Hearing the sound of the shells falling, Zhao Lin felt a chill run down her spine, and a sense of life-or-death crisis surged into her heart.

"No one can hurt my dad!"

At this moment, Ji Ruxue, who was worried about Lu Chuan's safety, was furious. Her powerful aura burst out, like a monstrous wave that swept in all directions.

At this moment, a powerful force of time spread in all directions, and all the falling shells were suspended in mid-air.

The next moment, Ji Ruxue unleashed her mental power, and the cannonballs that were about to fall instantly flashed back along their original paths.
