Chapter 620: Li Wei’s Ultimate Lightning Tactic (Part One)
Mario was sitting behind the gate feeling a bit sleepy as he muttered, “What a bunch of softies they are. There’s only a few of us at the top of this hill, and they’re coming up so carefully. I’ve been waiting for them for so long that I feel itchy.”
He looked to Chekhov and asked, “You fired 48 shots, so how many men did you take out?”
Chekhov kept on speaking as he said, “I’m not as powerful as Boss; my accuracy and prediction is not professional enough. 41 died, so over 80 percent.”
Mario was distraught, “So there are 100 people left? You have to save some for me.”
Chekhov didn’t bother with him and changed his gun, his a.s.sistant next to him immediately loading bullets into his sniper rifle. He had fun killing them, although his accuracy was indeed not as good as Xu Cheng’s since, in addition to their ultrasonic senses, Xu Cheng also had penetrating vision. Plus Chekhov’s ultrasonic feedback had a little delay, and his ability would have a bigger flaw if the enemy moved at a fast speed.
But it was enough. He managed to take out 41 soldiers with his 48 shots, and that had already made Ye Wen’s side become scrupulous, not daring to rush up too quickly.
The three mercenary clans had limited access to information about the Deviant Corp, and they didn’t know that there were actually only less than 30 people all together. If they knew, they wouldn’t have been this careful on their way up.
In addition to the fact that Chekhov’s gun took out over 40 people, which gave the illusion that there were many soldiers above them, and it was no wonder that Ye Wen had suddenly stopped rushing up. But the fact that they suddenly didn’t choose to charge up made Mario puzzled.
“I’ll go and help Diesel and Vala.”
Chekhov: “No, there will always be someone who escapes, and by then if they attack from the front side, then the other positions will be threatened.”
Durson also felt like he must do something. “I’ll go down and help Vala and Diesel, I can take out a lot of people with my speed.”
Luo Yi: “No, you are responsible for being in Boss’s room. If the situation becomes critical, follow what everyone has discussed before: take the Boss with you and leave immediately.”
Diesel and Vala saw them chasing but were unable to stop the soldiers from rushing up. They had already killed more than 30 each, but there were too many of them.
Diesel: “I’ve killed more than thirty on my side as best I can, and there are still more than fifty still trying to rush up.”
Vala: “My side as well, they should have gotten the signal that the front and back are hard to attack, so they are giving pressure from both sides.”
Luo Yi: “I will take the rest of the people from both sides to fight them head-on. We have bulletproof vests and helmets, so the killing force can be sharply reduced to a minimum. Our hearts are okay, but we must protect our heads, so the boss can save us if he needs to. We are not afraid, so let’s fight them.”
Having said that, Luo Yi brought Kurt and a dozen or so brothers who had not yet awakened into two streams, so they could confront them from the sides. This would relieve the pressure on Vala and Diesel to flank them from the rear.
Chekhov said at this time, “The mines shouldn’t have all exploded, detonate them.”
Luo Yi held a master control b.u.t.ton in his hand and directly pressed down on it. The mines deployed on both sides of the mountain detonated, blowing out the sand and gravel debris, and those attacking soldiers squatted down one by one as Luo Yi and the others carried their guns and rushed down.
There was a rumbling sound and it started to drizzle.
Li Wei was excited. “More rain!”
The raindrops grew in density and the rain poured right down with the thunder.
Chekhov cursed, “S–t, the rain is interfering with my aim!”
“All right, now it’s my turn.” Li Wei was delighted as he yelled at Mario. “Mario, put on your raincoat and cover me. Follow me down.”
Mario rushed to the house to find a raincoat to put on himself, as long as the rain didn’t get on his skin and he had clothing insulators, then Li Wei wouldn’t electrocute him and he would be fine.
He shielded himself in front of Li Wei, who had electric current all over his body and as the rain poured down on him, the water carrying the electricity went underneath the soldiers’ feet who were also all drenched by the rain, and it struck them all through their bodies.
Chapter 620: Li Wei’s Ultimate Lightning Tactic (Part Two)
There had been a heavy rainstorm, and since there were no lightning protection measures around, the lightning also seemed to directly resonate with Li Wei’s current as it blasted the soldiers who had been struck by Li Wei!
The lightning bombarded a few soldiers, searing them into charcoal, and the surrounding treetops directly caught on fire.
The lightning didn’t stop here, as a large rumbling from the sky crashed down on those soldiers. Li Wei saw this lightning, and a crazy idea flashed across his head as he ran straight over to catch the thunder!
He was going to endure it with his own body, but Mario sensed what he was doing and yelled, “Li Wei! No! The lightning is carrying hundreds of thousands of volts!”
But Li Wei had already gone to take in the lightning that fell from the sky, and for a moment, his limbs trembled and his mouth shuddered; he was also electrified, but he roared as he converted the lightning into an electric current beneath his feet. The current soared from a few hundred volts to ten million volts instantly.
What was the concept of ten million volts?
It was equivalent to a small power station, a thunderbolt could reach 100 million volts at its highest, but fortunately the thunderbolt that struck Li Wei was only carrying hundreds of thousands. This hundreds of thousands was still enough to surround half a mountain, and as long as there were rain soaked mercenaries, they would be directly electrocuted!
The front side of the mountain area and the sides were affected, leaving only the back side of the mountain intact; half of the mountain was instantly detonated by the electric current.
Both Diesel and Vala were unlucky as they were almost killed after being paralyzed by the powerful electric current, and they pa.s.sed out.
Half of the invading soldiers were all electrocuted and died, Mario saw Li Wei was not in a good condition as his whole body was charred. So he directly used his huge body to b.u.mp Li Wei away, interrupting this terrifying act of using the force of nature to call upon lightning.
But Li Wei was already dying with his skin charred all over. No part of his body was intact, and even his hair was on fire.
Mario quickly carried him up and rushed to the rescue house at the top of the hill where Xu Cheng was.
“Little Dong! Save him!”
Lin Dong saw that Li Wei was completely charred and couldn’t even tell how he looked like.
“This son of a btch is so audacious! I’ve never seen anything like this in my fcking life. My G.o.d, it’s sick!”
Having said that, he remembered the others who were affected by the electric wave and rushed out the door. “I’ll go find the other brothers, you keep an eye on them.”
He crawled down the hill, and everywhere he went there were dead people. The scene was merciless and cruel!
After he found Diesel and Vala, he carried the two with one on each shoulder without any effort and ran up the hill. He then ran down the sides to look for Luo Yi and other people who had not yet awakened with their abilities and found that they were all in the same state, lying in the water. He didn’t know whether they were dead or alive, there was also electric current running through their body from time to time.
Mario was shocked. “From now on, Boss is the first one not be provoked, and Li Wei this son of a bi*ch is the second! He’s crazy!”
