Chapter 704 An Assassination Attempt

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The heavy rain crashed down from the sky. The slaughter on the ground was like the rain in the sky. There was no sign of stopping.

The 42nd minute.

The Rice Army continued to surge in all directions around the team that broke through the encirclement.

Behind the royal family, the road paved with blood and corpses was nearly 400 meters long. More and more blood was flowing from the rain, and the entire ground was gradually dyed scarlet red. However, in the eyes of the crowd, there was no sign of the enemy decreasing in the slightest.

Blaze Assault Master.

Barrier Armored Legion.

75th Ranger Regiment.

And then the Marine Corps .

Wherever they went, the enemy would pounce on them crazily. Death would bloom with blood every minute, and the pressure on the royal family would gradually become greater and greater.

Intense fatigue spread through all parts of his body like a tide. The feeling of powerlessness became clearer and clearer. Stepping forward, drawing out the sword, withdrawing the sword, every movement began to become strenuous. As his breathing gradually became heavy, the effects of the medicine began to weaken bit by bit.

Wang Fuyu gritted his teeth tightly. The veins in his hands that held the sword burst out due to extreme strength. He tried his best to control his breathing, not wanting to expose his current state in front of the enemy and his own people.

"Stop them! The 3rd, 5th, and 6th squadrons, surround them all. If they lose their strength, go up and kill them all!"

Among the Marine Corps crowd, a bearded colonel had a ferocious look on his face as he hysterically roared for his soldiers to charge forward.

First, there were 15,000 close guards of the Military Force, It was Atlas who stopped him, Then there was the siege of a large number of rice troops, In this war against the royal family, The United States had already paid a great price. Perhaps this price would not hurt the bones of the United States, but this was not a war that concerned the survival of the United States. They only had to deal with a dozen or so people. Compared to the size of the enemy and the price paid, this price was already unbearable for anyone.

More than a dozen X-class experts, More than 20,000 corpses were lying in the hospital. This was a result that no one had expected. Everyone had overestimated themselves and underestimated the destructive power of the royal family. Things had come to this point and there was no retreat. No matter what, they had to leave Lin Xuanyuan and the others here at all costs. Otherwise, their previous sacrifices would be meaningless.

From the looks of it, this battle would make the United States and its army the laughingstock of the entire world. If they couldn't leave a dozen people behind after paying such a great price, then what face did the United States have to continue to call itself a powerful country?

He must be left behind!

The colonel wiped the rain off his beard and turned his head to look at a man in military uniform with the rank of sergeant beside him. He lowered his voice and said, "General, let's carry out the assassination plan. It's time."

General!

A general with the rank of sergeant!

The two hundred thousand-strong Marine Corps could be said to be the largest special forces unit in the United States, They represent the strongest force in the U.S. Special Forces, But in reality, The quality of the Marine Corps' personnel was different. The most elite of them could naturally be called the strongest unit in the United States, but most of their members maintained the quality of ordinary special forces at most. Not to mention the 75th Ranger Corps, they were even inferior to the Blaze Assault Division.

The Marine Corps had about twenty bases throughout the United States. The size and military quality of the base in Federation City were considered to be medium, and the highest-ranking officer of the base was only a colonel.

A general.

Even brigadier generals, is a real big shot in the Marine Corps, Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for them to appear in the Federation City base. In this war, the only Marine Corps general involved was Major General Nicholas. On the surface, at least, no one else knew that there was a second general involved except Nicholas.

The one standing beside the bearded colonel was no general. Right now, he was just an ordinary soldier with the rank of sergeant. He looked no different from the other soldiers.

"Don't worry, Charlemagne. Wang Fuyu can still hold on for a while. He is running out of energy. Wait for two minutes. After two minutes, he will execute the assassination plan."

The sergeant called General said slowly. It was pitch-black night, and it was raining heavily. His head was completely enveloped in a bulletproof helmet, and it was impossible to see his expression when he spoke.

Colonel Charlemagne's mouth moved. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated to say it. He could only reluctantly nod and wait anxiously.

Two minutes.

This amount of time was enough for the royal team to break through another dozen meters.

Within this distance, countless Rice soldiers would be slaughtered by the enemy.

Right now, the ones being slaughtered were all his direct troops!

"I know you're anxious, But it's useless to be anxious, As we all know, The assassination plan is a good plan, but it's hard to pose a threat to World-shaking Sovereigns, and even to X-class masters. So we have to wait. Charlemagne, I can understand why you cherish your soldiers, but I can't send my soldiers to their deaths just because I understand your feelings, can I? "

'Sergeant' said slowly and firmly, "Continue to wait. I will let them take action at the right time."

Colonel Charlemagne gritted his teeth, and yet another wave of blood rose in his sight. Blood rushed into the sky, mixed with the falling rain, giving off a hazy color.

"Bastard!!"

"Stop them, damn it! Everyone, surround them and compress their space! Their stamina is about to collapse! Kill them all! Kill these bastards!" The colonel roared hysterically.

As he roared crazily, the colonel's voice suddenly stopped.

In that instant, the colonel felt as if he had suddenly fallen into an ice cave. His entire body was cold, and every hair on his body stood upright.

This was the feeling of being stared at by death.

Several gazes fell on Colonel Charlemagne almost immediately.

The same icy coldness and indifference, almost without the slightest bit of emotion that a human should have.

Lin Xuanyuan, Wang Fuyu, Sagittarius...

Everyone looked over.

Lin Xuanyuan waved his hand in front of Colonel Charlemagne.

The entire team suddenly turned around.

Large amounts of blood flew wildly through the crowd. Wang Fuyu waved his sword and rushed towards Charlemagne with his entire team.

"Damn it, you've attracted their attention. Divert them!"

Beside the colonel, the general with the rank of sergeant shouted angrily and grabbed Charlemagne's body. The colonel's weight of nearly 200 jin seemed to be weightless in his hands. The two of them quickly retreated and disappeared into the encirclement of the Rice Army in the blink of an eye.

Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu subconsciously paused.

"He's an expert."

Lin Xuanyuan stood beside Wang Fuyu and said indifferently.

They were nearly fifty meters away from Colonel Charlemagne, Under the heavy rain, the night, and the crowd, even though Lin Xuanyuan couldn't see what the person who took the commander looked like, Lin Xuanyuan was sure that he was close to the level of a top X-class expert in terms of explosive power.

"It should be Luffy."

The archer frowned and took a step forward. "Why is he here? Could it be that Nicholas isn't the only Marine expert participating in this war?" He asked, puzzled. "This piece of information is gone."

Because it was the gunner, in such a complex environment, the shooter had to stand in a safe and sufficiently forward position.

Therefore, the archer had been following Lin Xuanyuan. This was almost the safest spot in the arena. Therefore, she also noticed the mysterious expert who had taken away the commander of the opponent right after Lin Xuanyuan.

"Luffy?"

Lin Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment, and a famous name subconsciously appeared in his mind.

Luther Booker.

If the number one expert in the Marine Corps was Major General Nicholas, who had the strength of a top X-class expert, then Major General Luffield was second only to Nicholas.

Marine Nighthawk Base Commander!

The Marine Corps' Nighthawk Corps, even in the entire Dark World, was a renowned sophisticated special forces unit. Its reputation was not inferior to the Dark Dawn of the United States. This was the entire Marine Corps, and it was also the most elite special forces unit in the entire United States, none of them!

Although the average strength of Nighthawk's troops was a bit lower than Dark Dawn's super elite troops, the total number of Nighthawk's troops was close to a hundred or five hundred elite special forces with an average strength of SS rank. On the battlefield, this was a force that could sweep through everything.

Major General Luffield was the master of this power.

Nicholas had countless students in the Marine Corps. He was known as the number one Marine Corps expert, but Luffy had never envied him. As long as he still controlled the Nighthawk, no one in the Marine Corps would dare to underestimate him.

Luffy himself was a pseudo-X-class expert. All of his combat indicators had reached the level of an X-class expert. He was famous for his explosive power. If such a person erupted with all his strength in an instant, even Nicholas would not be willing to face him head-on.

"This is really an accident. Can you confirm that the other party is Luffy?"

Lin Xuanyuan silently recalled the information about Luffy and subconsciously glanced at the archer before asking.

A quasi-X-class expert, Even if it was a pseudo-X-class expert who could temporarily erupt with top-grade X-class combat power, Lin Xuanyuan didn't have to worry about it. However, he wasn't afraid. None of the people behind him dared to ignore Luffield's existence. Furthermore, everyone in the Breakout Team, including him, was about to enter a weak stage. At this time, Luffield could sweep them all by himself. Moreover, since Luffield had come, would his Nighthawk army still be far away?

"I'm not sure. It's too far away. However, the Marine Corps only has two X-class fighters. Nicholas is dead now. If he really belongs to the Marine Corps, then it will be Luffy."

Sagittarius said softly.

Lin Xuanyuan nodded and kicked a rushing Rice Army away. Then, he looked at Wang Fuyu and said, "How long can you last?"

"Five minutes."

Wang Fuyu hesitated for a moment, but he still said truthfully, "It will only be five minutes at most. I have to leave some energy behind. I can't just collapse here and let you carry me out, right? I'm not like these two guys. I'd rather walk on my own."

He smiled bitterly and pointed at Chen Fengyu and Qin Tianjiao, who were still unconscious with their backs on their backs.

"Then … leave it to me."

Lin Xuanyuan nodded. He pointed in the direction of the retreat of the suspected Major General Luffield and said, "Let's turn around and kill our way out. If what the archer said is correct, we might be in trouble next. Your condition is a little unstable. Take a rest first."

Wang Fuyu nodded and threw the Heavenly Punishment in his hand to Lin Xuanyuan, taking a step back.

Lin Xuanyuan's two swords were still in his hands, but he still had the same plain slogan: "Follow me."

In the next moment, amidst the rolling waves of blood, the speed of the entire Imperial Clan's breakthrough team suddenly accelerated!

At the same time.

Amongst the Marine Corps crowd, General Luffield, with the rank of sergeant, grabbed Colonel Charlemagne by the collar and suppressed his roar, "Bastard!" You let me miss the best opportunity. Open your eyes and see. You idiot, Lin Xuanyuan is leading the team to break out of the encirclement. In order to save you, I might have already been exposed. If not for this, if Wang Fuyu continued to lead the team, our assassination operation might have been successful! Look at what you've done! "

"I'm sorry, General, but this isn't the time to talk about it. They're charging at us, and my men won't be able to stop them."

Charlemagne said quickly. His face was a little pale and annoyed, but his tone was still calm.

"Retreat! Continue to retreat, have your men stop them!"

Luffield grabbed Charlemagne and continued to retreat, He glanced at the unwilling colonel. "Remember, this is all because of your stupid commands. If you hadn't attracted his attention, the assassination plan would have begun by now. Now, because of your stupidity, your troops are making greater sacrifices. After the war, I think the military and the Marine Corps will reconsider your position."

Charlemagne's body trembled slightly as he clenched his teeth and allowed Luffy to pull him back without saying a word.

Countless members of the Marine Corps roared as they rushed towards Lin Xuanyuan.

The gloomy Major General Luffield remained unmoved. He retreated all the way and took out the walkie-talkie from his pocket. "All teams, start the operation. Three minutes later, execute the assassination plan!"

"Understood!"

"Understood!"

"Understood!"

Countless responses came back to Major General Luffield's ears almost at the same time.

Simple, powerful, uniform!
