Chapter 537 Balance Between Public and Private Interests

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

The cruel slaughter continued on the road that was only about ten kilometers away from Mo Lin's base.

The thoroughly shattered road, Burning flames, The wreckage of the motorcycle, There were corpses everywhere, and every single scene in their line of sight was a full expression of the tragic intensity of this war. Scarlet blood spilled down the explosion. Sparks or patches of blood converged. The pungent smell of blood pervaded the air, and a small number of scavengers were already circling above, eyeing the corpses below them covetously.

Human life is like grass.

In this battlefield, it seemed that all living beings existed for the sake of death.

An extremely brutal massacre.

Death had become the meaning of every single Mi army being alive.

The gunshots continued to ring.

However, the frequency was greatly reduced.

The knights and infantry were all elites who had never participated in a war, but the war they had participated in for the first time today had an absurd feeling that exceeded their imagination.

More than half of the 2,000-strong Rice Army infantry had been wiped out by themselves. This was not all. The Rice Army that had survived by more than 1,000 soldiers was being pursued by a single person!

One person chased after the thousand meter army.

What was this concept?

Looking down from above, The entire battlefield was like a nightmare. The thousands of soldiers were in an abnormally messy camp, squeezed together like birds of terror and fleeing aimlessly. Behind them, there was only a slender figure wearing a golden mask. The assault rifle in his hand kept pulling the trigger. Following the gunshots, bullets shot out, blood sprayed out, and corpses fell to the ground.

Morale had fallen to its lowest point.

Every single one of them had a terrified expression on their faces as they fled at a faster speed than charging forward. The sound of gunfire was accompanied by their miserable screams.

Yes, screams, not roars.

Most of the frightened birds that were scared out of their wits were like this.

Thousands of people squeezed together to flee. The direction they had completely lost their way was not even the Mo Lin base or the mountain infantry regiment behind them, but the mountain range on the right side of the road. Lin Xuanyuan's pursuit speed was neither fast nor slow, and he was always at the limit of the range of the assault rifle in his hand.

This limit was already very difficult to control. Even if the other party turned around and counterattacked, it would still be extremely difficult to hit him. Even if the large-scale Rice Army turned around and shot randomly, he would not be able to hit him with bullets even if he retreated at full speed. However, from this position, he could control the firearms to massacre him at will.

Thousands of people are dwindling rapidly.

The four digits became three digits.

The distribution of the corpses became increasingly dense, Lin Xuanyuan only chased after them. There's no need to worry about reloading, Most of the corpses on the road were from the Rice Army that had fallen to the ground before they could even shoot, Lin Xuanyuan was slaughtering them with their weapons. It had been five minutes since they fled. Lin Xuanyuan had a bazooka on his back and a grenade gun hanging on his shoulders. As for assault rifles, magazines, and grenades, there were even more.

This was definitely an exceptionally terrifying burden, but Lin Xuanyuan didn't have any pressure at all. He was able to easily chase after the army of nearly a thousand meters in front of him.

As for dividing up the troops and fleeing, not to mention the fact that everyone in front of them was running for their own lives, even if they did, no one would do it. Lin Xuanyuan's spear technique was too fast, and if they split up, the small number would definitely be killed immediately. The crowd was in chaos, and no one commanded them to flee. It was their only thought.

Most importantly, they had already asked for help from Mo Lin base and the mountain infantry regiment. Right now, Mo Lin base and the mountain infantry regiment behind them were rushing over at full speed to cover Lin Xuanyuan. They didn't need to wait for too long. At this time, everyone hoped to survive and didn't want to escape separately.

The Rice Army, whose morale had collapsed without any intention of fighting, only wanted to escape. It could be said that they were inferior to ants. They clearly knew that there were people chasing after them, but they did not even have the courage to turn around and resist shooting. Such an army, apart from dying, had no other meaning.

"Your Highness, I have re-invaded Mo Lin base. At present, I can already see the situation of more than half of Mo Lin base. The collapse of the headquarters has a great impact on Mo Lin base. I can't access the database of the other party anymore, so I can only hack into their surveillance system."

Catherine's voice sounded somewhat solemn amidst the intense gunfire.

"Mo Lin base?"

Lin Xuanyuan chased after the hundreds of meters ahead with his gun. His movements were extremely fast, but he seemed to be unusually leisurely. Hearing Catherine's words, his firing slowed down. Then, he shot another Rice Army in the head and casually said, "I don't plan to go there anymore. The database doesn't matter. Mo Lin base is moving now?"

"Yes."

Catherine said seriously, "Castroth went to Morin base, and after receiving a request for help from the Knights Infantry, he was already on his way."

Lin Xuanyuan's body paused, and his eyes instantly became deep and gloomy.

"Castroth? The one-eyed general who once called Rodriguez the Gemini of the United States?"

"That's right, it's him, a top-grade X-class expert."

Catherine said calmly.

"He used to be a top-notch X-class expert."

Lin Xuanyuan corrected him and muttered to himself, "It's a big fish."

"Your Highness, don't be careless. Kaslott is different from Rodriguez. He is now the commander of the Gao Tan United Legion. He doesn't have the ability to lead a large legion of more than thirty thousand people. Do you think he can lead a large legion of more than thirty thousand people just by his achievements? "The reason Castroth was crippled was because of the recurrence of his old injuries. To some extent, he did not lose his strength. It was just that he could not attack with all his might. Your Highness, I think you should understand what I mean, right?"

Catherine asked worriedly.

Lin Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment before nodding. He smiled with a complicated tone and said, "Of course I can understand."

A few years ago, The one-eyed general was also a famous figure in the Dark World, Although Lin Xuanyuan had never met him before, But I've heard of him, After he was crippled, he was transferred to the Gao Tan Alliance Legion. It could be said that he had completely withdrawn from the Dark World. At first, there would be some speculation about his strength. However, as time passed, this former Dark World expert had gradually been forgotten by the Dark World. It was also a mystery how strong Castroth was.

Lin Xuanyuan was thoughtful. According to Catherine, Caslott's current state was basically the same as he was three years ago.

At that time, he could also display strength beyond the limits of the human body, but because his body wasn't strong enough, he couldn't display it at all.

The current Castroth was probably the same. He could still be called a top-notch X-class expert, but because his old injuries were too severe, he could not use his peak strength either.

Three years ago, Lin Xuanyuan was a world-shaking expert, but he could only display the combat strength of a top-notch X-class expert. Occasionally, he would erupt, recklessly desperately desperate.

The current Caslott was at the peak of the X-class, but he could only display a quasi-X-class combat strength.

But what if, with the help of drugs, you ignore your own body's explosions?

Lin Xuanyuan could not confirm the consequences of Castroth's explosion, nor could he confirm his determination to defend the military bases in Gao Tan. He was also unable to determine whether he was facing a peak Castrot or a crippled one-eyed general.

"How many people did Castroth bring?"

Lin Xuanyuan suddenly asked.

"Two helicopters, 60 people."

Catherine quickly said, "Apart from Kaslott, who is in an unfathomable state, everyone else is wearing the uniform of the Special Warfare Brigade of the United Legion. They are probably the most elite group of people. They are not easy to deal with."

The Special Operations Brigade of the Joint Corps is also a special forces unit, But it's a naval force, The naval, air and land forces of the joint corps, The army was naturally the strongest, Three divisions, one brigade belonging to the army, An aviation fleet belonged to the air force. As for the navy, it was a fleet and a special forces brigade of the joint corps. However, the naval fleet was only under the control of the joint corps, and the base was not within the joint corps base. There were only special forces brigades in the joint base. Therefore, the special forces brigades were often more representative of the naval forces of the joint base than the fleet.

A joint base of more than 30,000 people, There are many different arms, It's a perfect match, Tactics change, The general direction is divided into the naval, Lin Xuanyuan didn't have the interest to chew on this tough bone. This was the only military base he was confident of sneaking into, but wasn't confident of leaving. Not to mention the other arms, it was a special forces brigade that had experienced the war and had all its members at the base. It was worth Lin Xuanyuan's effort to deal with it.

The Special Warfare Brigade had a large crowd and was also a special forces unit. The number 60 chosen this time would definitely be much stronger than the ordinary Military Force. At the very least, they could be considered as S-class special services elite soldiers with average strength.

"Your Highness, it's still too late to retreat now."

Catherine reminded softly.

"Why retreat? Kaslott can be said to be the biggest fish in the vicinity of the Gao Tan."

Lin Xuanyuan smiled.

"But dealing with this fish is very risky."

Catherine smiled bitterly. If it was just Lin Xuanyuan dealing with Kaslott and his 60 elite soldiers, it wouldn't be a problem for him. Even if he was dealing with a peak Kaslott, it wouldn't matter. But the most important thing was that Lin Xuanyuan's main goal wasn't Gao Tan, but Federation City.

Under such circumstances, the smartest thing to do was to avoid fierce battles, avoid confronting experts from Gao Tan while causing the greatest damage, maintain their perfect state and go to Federation City to fight with Castroth. It would not be worth it if they suffered some injuries or anything.

"Catherine, I'm suddenly curious. Logically speaking, Kaslott's physical condition should be a secret. How did you know? This kind of thing won't be recorded in any information."

Lin Xuanyuan suddenly asked.

"More than a year ago, Nearly two years ago, After becoming the commander of the United Legion, Castroth secretly participated in a mission to hunt me down, but he didn't reveal his identity. At that time, Yang Mo and I were on vacation in Melbourne. Castroth, who was disguised as an ordinary soldier, launched a sneak attack and directly broke one of Yang Mo's arms. That time, Yang Mo was seriously injured and we almost couldn't escape. "

Catherine whispered.

Lin Xuanyuan was silent. Yang Mo was naturally aware of his strength. A quasi-X-class expert would not suffer too much if he held a sword against an ordinary X-class expert. The reputation of a Sword Saint was nothing in the eyes of a World-shaking expert, but it was truly famous in the Dark World. Being broken by a single punch was enough to prove Castroth's physical condition.

"Why didn't you notify me of this matter at that time? If you had notified me at that time, perhaps there wouldn't have been a one-eyed general today."

Lin Xuanyuan said indifferently.

"At that time, you were busy killing people in the Dark World. There was no need for you to have another strong enemy. Moreover, over the years, the United States has hunted me down at least dozens of times. Those who should be used to it have already gotten used to it. As long as they can live, it's good."

Catherine smiled gently.

"You're really valued. You've been dragged down by the United States for so many years."

Lin Xuanyuan sighed with emotion. Katherine, a former technician of Dark Dawn in the United States, was naturally extremely important to the hacker's skills in the Dark World. However, most importantly, she probably had some important information because of her skills. If she did not die, it would be very difficult for the United States to feel at ease.

This was probably the reason why Catherine had been ranked high on the list of traitors in the United States all these years.

"It's not too late to know today."

Lin Xuanyuan smiled and narrowed his eyes, "I'll kill this Kaslott for you today. I'll take care of both public and private matters. As for personal matters, I'll take revenge for Yang Mo. As for official matters, killing Kaslott will basically complete half of what I did in Gao Tan."
