Chapter 68: Fatal Strike

As Li Wei, Cai Yutong, and Wells eliminated the small fries, four experts with activated genetic locks were besieging the semi-mechanized flesh giant.

The battle situation was relatively stable. Zheng Zaishun, as an evolver with deep expertise in the Hard-Wall Chain, had opened his genetic lock and was directly confronting the attacks of the flesh giant—not passively enduring them, but using various abilities to reduce damage while also trying to evade the opponent's attacks as much as possible.

At the same time, Wang Erde shared a considerable amount of pressure with him. As an evolver specializing in the Power Chain, Wang Erde's fierce hammer strikes could inflict considerable damage on the semi-mechanized flesh giant. Furthermore, being in close combat range, he could provide emergency support when Zheng Zaishun encountered trouble.

Meanwhile, Qian Long, who controlled psychic powers, and Banderry, who used a bow and arrow, provided long-range damage output and support from a distance.

This formed a complete combat pattern, somewhat reminiscent of Li Wei's impression from playing games in his past life, where teams fought bosses.

But reality was far from simple like a game. The main point was that, although the brain of the flesh giant wasn't the sharpest, it wasn't stupid enough to focus solely on one person. While Zheng Zaishun was restricting it greatly, it kept trying to attack Wang Erde directly. It could also sense that Wang Erde's hammer caused more significant damage to it.

This forced Wang Erde to not go all out and to consider his own safety to some extent.

In contrast, Banderry and Qian Long in the distance could unleash their attacks freely. However, they also faced some troubles. There was no exemption for friendly fire in the real world. Besides the flesh giant, there were also Zheng Zaishun and Wang Erde nearby, so getting too carried away with their attacks could easily result in friendly fire.

For example, Wang Erde didn't dare to directly use his Crimson Lotus Arrow against the flesh giant. His Crimson Lotus Arrow had a fierce explosive power, but its range was not small, making it easy to hit allies. Similarly, Qian Long faced the same problem. If he strengthened the power of his psychic waves, he would inevitably lose precise control over the force, potentially causing friendly fire.

Moreover, the external armor defense of the flesh giant was indeed very strong, and it was known for its ability to withstand attacks and its vitality. This tough tank wasn't that easy to deal with.

Li Wei and the other three, who had already dealt with all the small fries, also intended to join the battle.

Cai Yutong took out her energy cannon, aimed for a while, didn't dare to fire, and could only take out her pistol, using armor-piercing rounds and explosive rounds to shoot, supplemented by some ice crystal rounds, trying to slow down the flesh giant's movement, but the effect was not very good.

Wells, on the other hand, intended to attack with his iron fists, but was stopped by Li Wei.

"What are you doing?"

"Be sensible, don't go up there and cause trouble."

After considering for a moment, Wells calmed down. It was indeed just causing trouble if he went up there. Although his fists could cause some damage to the flesh giant, the threat to him from the flesh giant was obviously greater. If he went up there, it might even make Wang Erde and Zheng Zaishun become constrained in order to take care of him.

But as he turned his head, he was stunned to see Li Wei pulling out his knife and charging forward.

"Don't go up there," you, who just barely reached the limit level, how come you're charging up there yourself?

"Hey..." He was about to say something, but he saw a scene that made him shut up directly.

Suddenly, a strong dark power surged from Li Wei's body. The demonic power in his mysterious left hand boiled and gradually condensed on his knife.

Wells was not blind or stupid. He could see that the move Li Wei was condensing was not ordinary. At least, it was not something he could do!

The flesh giant also noticed Li Wei approaching and felt the threat from the demonic energy rising from Li Wei. It roared, ignoring Zheng Zaishun's steel fist, and directly confronted Li Wei, swinging its left arm, intending to have a direct confrontation with Li Wei.

Wang Erde didn't let it succeed.

This traveler who came from who knows where obviously had considerable strength. With his expertise in the Power Chain and wielding a war hammer, even when exerting his full strength, he still had considerable power.

The heavy hammer struck, bringing a thunderous force! With the electric sparks on the war hammer, it fiercely hit the flesh giant from the side, preventing its attack on Li Wei.

Both the flesh giant and Wang Erde himself were not comfortable with this head-on collision. The electric sparks slightly paralyzed the flesh giant's body, preventing it from completing the attack, and even affecting its balance. Wang Erde, who was also affected by the rebound force, had his tiger's mouth crack open, and even blood flowed out.

But Li Wei did not waste the opportunity he had gained.

Li Wei slashed with his knife!

As he had approached, holding a short knife, relying on his newly activated Sharingan, he accurately cut into the gap between the chest armor module and the abdomen armor module of the flesh giant. With the demonic power driving it, the force of the knife was much stronger than that of a Steel-Cutting Flash, directly cutting into the body of the flesh giant.

It was still a combination of Gale Strike and Ghost Strike!

Li Wei had deliberately left two Gale Sword Intents for emergency use. When he slashed with the short knife, he deliberately suppressed the activation time of the Gale Strike, delaying its whirlwind effect.

And this momentary delay resulted in a terrifying effect!

At this moment, the short knife in Li Wei's hand had already cut into the body of the flesh giant! In this situation, the gale that was enough to blow people into the sky and bind them directly bloomed from the short knife, from within the body of this monster!

The power of Ghost Strike, Gale Strike, completely poured into the body of the flesh giant!

The purple blades of wind erupted crazily from the wound cut by Li Wei's short knife, lifting both the upper and lower armor modules of the flesh giant, and the flesh and blood that were smashed by the demonic wind flew everywhere with the wind.

Not only Li Wei himself, but also Wang Erde and Zheng Zaishun, who were relatively close, were dyed red by the blood that burst out!

The process of the short knife spraying demonic wind lasted for a full two seconds. During these two seconds, it seemed that everything was still, except for the wind and blood, everything seemed to be frozen.

After a moment, Li Wei withdrew his knife. However, where he had slashed, the giant's bloated belly had already been opened by a huge wound. Its robust body was almost cut in half by this attack!
