In the apocalypse, I hoarded goods and handed over my storage space to the government.

The red lion below was not idle either; a hint of ferocity and cunning flashed in its scarlet vertical pupils.

It suddenly chose the weakest point in the defense, strained its limbs, and prepared to make a desperate breakout.

"You beast, this road is blocked!"

Ye Xiao didn't waste any words.

The battle blade, carrying an unstoppable and ferocious momentum, slammed into the shield, forcibly stopping the red lion.

"Follow my instructions!"

Su Ran switched back to the global chat channel, her eyes revealing a murderous intent.

"Old Mo, forget about the energy consumption! Spread out the poison field at full power and help me clear out as many of the cannon fodder swarming in from the vicinity as possible!"

"Understood! Leave it to me!"

Mo Yun immediately spoke up.

"White Deer, control the Hellhound Mother! Block all its retreat routes with your own bodies! Don't allow it to retreat even a single step!"

"Received!" Bai Lu's cold voice carried a resolute tone.

The fourth-tier hellhound mother let out a deafening roar, forcefully smashing a gap in the dense beast wall.

"Old Ye!"

Su Ran looked through the fighter jet window at the Shura warriors on the ground.

"The Academy of Sciences' 'Silent One' grenade will generate an extremely strong energy vacuum field, which can temporarily disable supernatural abilities in a certain area."

However, it will not affect the performance of the mech itself.

It can last fifteen seconds against a third-tier mutated beast, but against a fourth-tier mutated beast...

"Three seconds is enough."

Ye Xiao cleaved two mutated bison in half in succession, and the power reactor of the Cheng Ying mecha emitted a dangerous buzzing sound.

"As soon as the shield breaks, in three seconds, I'll twist its head off and kick it like a ball!"

"good!"

Without further hesitation, Su Ran pushed the control stick and firmly fixed the crosshair onto the Red Lion's dazzling dark red shield.

"Countdown to ten seconds!"

The Xuan Nu fighter jet swooped down from the clouds at high speed!

The red lion sensed the approaching death and could no longer care about breaking through. It dug its four paws into the scorched earth, and the dark red shield aura instantly surged!

"five!"

"three!"

"emission!"

The internal storage bay under the fuselage was wide open, and flames were spewing out!

Two missiles, each carrying a grenade, hurtled through the gap above, accompanied by a deafening sonic boom, heading straight for the Red Lion's head!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, nor any towering flames.

Just a fraction of a second before the missile was less than half a meter from the shield, Su Ran pressed the detonation button on the screen with his left thumb!

"Buzz!"

An extremely strange fluctuation spread out, like an old television set being suddenly unplugged.

A ring of dark blue energy ripples spread out from the point of explosion, instantly enveloping the ten-meter space!

The ripples swept across the soil, leaving the soil undamaged; they swept across the severed limbs, leaving the limbs intact.

But the moment it swept over the Red Lion, the dark red shield that even the Cheng Ying mech couldn't break through shattered on the spot!

Not only that, the fourth-order energy that was surging wildly within the Red Lion's body was also forcibly put on pause!

"roar?"

The red lion's crimson vertical pupils contracted sharply, and its eyes finally revealed extreme, human-like terror.

A fraction of a second after the shield was lost, two high-explosive missiles, now without resistance, slammed into its unsuspecting back!

"Boom!"

Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and charred remains splattered.

"Now! Old Ye, take it down!"

Su Ran yanked the control stick, pushing the fighter jet to its maximum altitude.

A few seconds of energy vacuum was enough for Ye Xiao, who was at his peak condition after Zhu Jingye had drained his hidden injuries, to kill it ten times over!

"Die, you bastard!!!"

The crystal energy thruster on the back of the Cheng Ying mecha exploded with a roar, bursting out a several-meter-long azure tail flame.

The eighteen-ton steel beast hurtled along the ground, smashing low-level alien beasts in its path into a bloody mist!

The hydraulic hoses on his right arm emitted a screeching sound as they strained under the strain, and his iron fist was pulled back to its limit.

Using its terrifying momentum, it slammed solidly into Red Lion's terrified and bewildered face!

"Snap!"

The sickening sound of bones cracking echoed across the battlefield.

The red lion's head was blasted in half by the heavy punch, its eyeballs burst, and its massive body was sent tumbling through the air.

Kill it while it's sick!

The warriors of Great Xia never give the enemy a chance to breathe!

Ye Xiao drew his battle sword with his left hand, the mecha's movements fluid and graceful.

The three-meter-long blade transformed into a streak of light, plunging from bottom to top along the red lion's shattered jaw, piercing its brain completely, with the blade tip emerging from the top of its head through the bone!

"thump."

The red lion's massive body crashed heavily onto the scorched earth, and the blood gushing from its wounds instantly stained the ground red.

Its limbs twitched nervously twice, and its remaining vertical pupils were filled with resentment before completely dissipating.

The fourth-tier health bar was completely emptied.

Without the mental command of the fourth-tier leader, the previously tightly organized frenzy of the beast tide instantly faded away.

The beast's instinct for panic took over again, and it began to attack the people in front of it numbly.

"Clear the area!"

Su Ran unleashed her full power, unleashing a powerful spatial cutting force.

The mutated beasts that tried to approach were all turned into pieces by the invisible blades, and blood rained down from the sky.

Su Ran piloted the Xuan Nu fighter jet into the air again, dropping several barrels of high-concentration inducing agent over a large area in the distance.

The scent spread with the wind, drawing all the mutated beasts, who had lost their leaders and were left only with instincts, to the area to the side, like a river.

After doing all this, Su Ran finally landed where the Red Lion had fallen.

If the grenade hadn't worked, or if the detonation time had been even slightly off, they would be the ones lying on the ground now.

All suffering is experienced, yet all beings are saved.

But faced with the mighty steel and technological prowess of the Great Xia, all fear stemmed from insufficient firepower!

"Clean up the battlefield!"

Su Ran jumped out of the fighter jet, stepping on the stench of blood and grime on the ground, and looked at the beast tide that was retreating like an avalanche. He gave a deep order.

"Old Ye, dig out this beast's fourth-order crystal core! Old Mo, contact headquarters immediately and tell General Zhao that the leader is dead!"

"Get the front lines ready for a counter-offensive to clear the area; leave no one alive!"

He walked up to the dead red lion, raised his right foot, and stomped firmly on its face.

"You're very clever. You hide in the background and fish in troubled waters. You're really good at saving your life."

Su Ran's lips curled up, her voice echoing clearly across the empty battlefield.

"But I'm sorry, you've run into me."
