Chapter 74: Chapter 71: Black Spine Zerg Army, Ruthless, Kneel Before Me

Although the Black Spine Zergs seemed incredibly fragile under the Cannon bombardment, the Attack Power unleashed by their Giant Mandibles and pincers was no joke.

In a frenzy, three Black Spine Zergs could destroy a tank.

The bite force of their Giant Mandibles reached several tons, capable of easily piercing through ten-millimeter steel plates.

Even wearing the Red Profound Armor, Lin Feng didn’t dare face a Swarm of Black Spine Zergs head-on. He could only use the RV for cover, mowing them down from a high vantage point with his Cannon.

He never thought that Jiang Yun’er would take such a risk just to kill a single Black Spine Zerg.

’Lin Feng truly didn’t know whether to admire her fearless courage or lament her ignorant stupidity.’

The Black Spine Zergs were already frustrated and furious from being blocked by the armored RV and losing their target. Now, they saw a group of humans bypass the RV and appear right in front of them.

After a sharp, piercing shriek...

The ten remaining Black Spine Zergs charged with all their might, heading straight for Jiang Yun’er and her group.

The two supervising soldiers hadn’t gotten out of the vehicle with the film crew at all. Instead, they were in the driver’s seats of the van, ready to turn and flee at a moment’s notice.

Having faced the Zerg Race’s armies on the battlefield and survived life-or-death situations, they knew perfectly well how terrifying the Black Spine Zergs were.

The only reason they were still willing to stay was that they had seen Lin Feng’s Superpower Bullet Superpower. His firepower was so intense that he could easily deal with this Swarm.

The moment the next wave of several hundred Black Spine Zergs arrived, they would flee without hesitation.

As long as their objective was met, neither the starlet Jiang Yun’er nor Lin Feng mattered to them.

But now, faced with the attack of ten Black Spine Zergs—a swarm of terrifying behemoths three meters wide and over two meters tall—and with their two supposed bodyguards nowhere in sight, and hearing Lin Feng’s loud rebuke...

...the hot-headed Jiang Yun’er finally snapped back to her senses and felt death drawing near...

As she panicked, the film crew she commanded, being ordinary people, also showed expressions of terror.

The next second, a Black Spine Zerg in perfect State leaped up, covering more than twenty meters in a single bound, and landed right in front of a crew member carrying a camera.

A pincer from one side pierced through his opposite arm, and as its Giant Mandible clamped down horizontally...

Not only did the cameraman’s shoulder and arm fly off, but the tearing bite of the Giant Mandible also severed his upper body at the waist.

In an instant, torso, viscera, and flesh flew everywhere.

Reds, yellows, and greens... splattered all over the ground. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Streaks of fresh blood sprayed directly onto the crowd, and Jiang Yun’er, who was standing right next to the cameraman, was covered from her face to her torso in sticky gore.

She was stunned with fright, but as the Black Spine Zerg continued its attack and screams echoed all around, Jiang Yun’er was jolted back to her senses. She raised her large-caliber rifle and, at point-blank range, aimed at the Giant Mandibles of the Zerg charging her and unleashed a frantic barrage.

The bullets flew straight into its mouth.

This was one of the few places where a Black Spine Zerg’s Armor was weak, but getting such an opportunity usually meant you were already on death’s door.

Fortunately, her exceptionally high Spiritual Power allowed Jiang Yun’er to aim and pull the trigger in the final two seconds before death claimed her.

The large-caliber bullets shot into the Black Spine Zerg’s mouthparts, pierced through the soft, slick throat inside, and directly blew up the Zerg’s brain hidden within its Giant Mandibles...

With its nervous system destroyed, the Black Spine Zerg that had led the charge and begun the massacre staggered and collapsed in front of Jiang Yun’er...

The sharp tip of its Giant Mandible nearly grazed the peak of her heaving chest as it crashed heavily to the ground.

After the sacrifice of three film crew members, Jiang Yun’er had finally managed to kill a Black Spine Zerg on her own.

But this was clearly just the beginning; the crisis was far from over.

Having survived the ordeal, she was nearly drained of all strength, especially after the image of that last Black Spine Zerg’s desperate, final lunge toward her...

The memory had left her legs so weak they could barely stand, and her form-fitting military pants had become damp.

However, the other Black Spine Zergs were less than ten meters away and about to reach her.

Just then, Lin Feng decisively opened fire. The power of the Grenade Cannon instantly finished off three heavily wounded Black Spine Zergs in the back. The blast’s aftershock disrupted the Zerg’s advance, and the resulting shockwave also knocked over the teetering Jiang Yun’er and the other survivors.

Seizing the opportunity, Lin Feng continued his harvest, quickly eliminating the last six Black Spine Zergs one by one.

Of this wave of twenty-two Black Spine Zergs, nineteen had died by his hand—enough for his lv17 Grenade Cannon to Upgrade to the lv19 Red Perfection Stage.

Lin Feng initiated the Upgrade immediately. Upgrading within minor stages didn’t require selecting timed Attributes, nor did it cause any strange effects on his body, so he could just start it directly.

But from now on, it could only serve as supplemental Damage. The main output would have to come from the RV to accumulate more Upgrade Points.

No matter how many more Black Spine Zergs he killed with the lv19 Grenade Cannon, it wouldn’t advance to the next stage.

「 ... 」

Once all the Black Spine Zergs were dealt with, Jiang Yun’er and the remaining film crew members on the ground slowly picked themselves up.

They turned, wanting to get back to the van.

Right now, only the inside of a vehicle could give them a sliver of security.

Unfortunately, when they looked back, the van that had been parked not far behind the Armored RV was already hundreds of meters away, driven by the two soldiers who were supposed to protect them but had vanished.

The only other vehicle left had its tires shot out by the soldiers; it couldn’t possibly outrun the Black Spine Zergs.

And so, the only thing that could escort them out of the Zerg Race’s heartland now was the Armored RV right in front of them.
