Chapter 66 Stunning Shot
Body hardening is an ability that only evolutionaries with a certain level of expertise in the Firmament Chain can have a chance to master. As demonstrated by Zheng Zaishun, when evolutionaries use this ability, their bodies become extremely hard, greatly increasing their defensive power.
The standard firing rate of the K5 is twenty to thirty rounds per minute, and thirty semi-mechanical infantry can fire more than six hundred bullets in a minute. The high-speed rotary machine gun mounted on the back of the semi-mechanical flesh giant can achieve a firing rate of over a thousand rounds per minute.
Such firepower is not something the human body can withstand. Even a master who has activated the gene lock would only end up being torn apart under such a metal storm. For example, Qian Long, as an evolutionary who follows the Development Hub Chain, can indeed resist cannon fire with his psychic shield, but his pure physical body is also very fragile. It only takes twenty bullets from the K5's large caliber to injure him. If it were a high-speed rotary machine gun, he would probably be shot dead in just two or three seconds.
But evolutionaries possess not only their bodies but also their abilities.
With body hardening, Zheng Zaishun's ability to resist bullets has significantly increased. Moreover, after mastering the Firmament Chain, the resistance of his skin, muscles, bones, and even internal organs to damage will all be greatly enhanced. Plus, he is not standing still as a living target. While running forward, he is also moving left and right. Those semi-mechanical infantry and flesh giants are far from being sharpshooters, so they cannot guarantee a high hit rate.
All of these factors combined make the firepower unleashed by those mechanical creatures not so terrifying for Zheng Zaishun.
The clothes he wore on the outside were already torn apart at the beginning, but the metal bullets hitting his body were like hitting an iron lump. The bullets couldn't penetrate his body no matter what. There were many pits and some places were even stained with blood, but the damage was still within an acceptable range.
With his arm blocking his view, Zheng Zaishun charged forward for half a minute, already closing a lot of distance. According to his own estimate, under such firepower, he could only hold on for at most one minute.
"It's time!" he shouted.
Wells and Wild also rushed out from behind the cover. At the same time, behind the cover, the few demon hunters, travelers, and all the self-defense militia also stood up and began to shoot at those semi-mechanical creatures, covering Wells and Wild.
Those semi-mechanical creatures suffered some losses, but they quickly reacted. The bullets were no longer pouring towards Zheng Zaishun but began to shift targets, preparing to shoot at Wells and Wild, as well as the militia behind the defense line.
Evolutionaries of the Firmament Chain have always been the backbone of a team. Zheng Zaishun, who charged at the forefront, would never allow the firepower of those semi-mechanical infantry to cross him so easily.
The distance was almost there. With a stomp of his foot, a shockwave spread rapidly from under his feet towards the front. Except for the flesh giant, all the other semi-mechanical infantry fell over under this shockwave.
But after all, the flesh giant was still there, and the rotary machine gun on its back was the biggest firepower point for these semi-mechanical creatures.
At this moment, Li Wei and others also took action!
Taking the initiative, it was Bendray's flame arrow and Cai Yutong's energy cannon.
The flame arrow shot at the flesh giant, causing it to stagger, and the barrel of the machine gun also shook and rose. Then, Cai Yutong's energy cannon arrived, but the power of her shot was slightly smaller than the flame arrow and did not cause much impact on the enemy.
The brain of the flesh giant was obviously not very good. After regaining its balance, instead of continuing to suppress Zheng Zaishun, Wells, and Wild with heavy firepower, it turned its head to observe who had just attacked it.
This turn of its head saw Li Wei charging towards it.
Between it and Li Wei, there were still a considerable number of semi-mechanical infantry, as well as a dozen or so semi-mechanical hounds. But these things were not obstacles. Li Wei blew off the head of a semi-mechanical infantry who had just turned around to shoot at him with one shot and then killed a hound that was close to him with a knife.
There were not many people who could respond in time to Li Wei's sudden attack from behind after being hit by Zheng Zaishun's shockwave.
If they could all play their respective roles, Li Wei alone would not be able to deal with all the disturbances. However, his teammates behind him were supportive enough.
Qian Long, specializing in the Hub Chain, used his psychic power to escort Li Wei!
A miniature psychic shield enveloped Li Wei's body, and if the firepower of the firearms was not strong enough, it would be difficult to penetrate. At the same time, psychic waves were accurately striking the semi-mechanical hounds that were rushing towards Li Wei, blocking their approach.
With Qian Long's help, Li Wei could almost rush towards the semi-mechanical flesh giant without any hindrance!
Turning his head, facing Li Wei, the flesh giant moved its hand, intending to pull the switch chain of the rotary machine gun behind it. But how could Li Wei let it succeed?
The muzzle pointed forward, and the jade of the Rinnegan crazily rotated. While his perception was at its limit, Li Wei pulled the trigger.
A bullet hit the connection point between the rotary machine gun and the armor on the back of the flesh giant. With a "clang" sound, Li Wei's shot directly broke the connection point!
The rotary machine gun, which had just started to rotate and was ready to fire, lost control. One of the two connection points was broken, causing the machine gun to be unable to continue to fix itself, and the barrel fell down!
Seeing this scene, Bendray's eyes almost popped out!
He asked himself, he couldn't do this!
A connection point, at most, is the size of a rivet, and it is hidden under the various structures of the machine gun and the back armor. Finding and seeing it is not an easy task, let alone shooting it from a distance of twenty to thirty meters? It's too difficult!
Moreover, even if it hits, how did he manage to directly break the connection point?
Li Wei only has secondary piercing bullets! Forget about secondary, even with a high-level piercing bullet, it would be possible to deal with it, right?
No wonder Li Wei dared to lead the charge. If he was really hit by the machine gun fire from the flesh giant, even if he had a psychic shield in front of him, he might not be able to withstand it. After all, the farther Qian Long's psychic power was from him, the harder it was to maintain its form, and the harder it was to provide defense.
He now admired Li Wei even more.
