The reason Reef dared to say that was naturally because he was a Tank himself, so he wasn't too concerned about Steel File's Burst Shield Throw ability. Furthermore, Reef's Heart-Rending Wail was also a rather monstrous AoE ability, especially now that it was granted priority; once slowed, escaping Reef's entanglement became extremely difficult.

Fang Senyan merely sneered: "No need to rush things. They are still at least five kilometers in a straight line from their destination.

We have already deployed six Sower Defense Systems along their inevitable path, along with many more traps and firing positions. The reason this guy hasn't exposed his weakness yet is simply because he isn't tired enough.

When exhaustion sets in... Hmph, that will be another story." As he spoke, a yellow signal suddenly flashed.

According to their prior agreement, a yellow signal indicated a very important internal matter, while a red signal signified an emergency due to an external invasion. When the yellow signal connected, it was Major Li’s excited voice: "Mr.

Sailor, after Dr. W drank your vodka, he fell into a short slumber.

Upon waking, he felt his thoughts had broadened considerably, and his mind was extremely clear. With the vodka's aid, he solved the final conundrum that had been troubling him.

All that remains now is complex calculation and workload. So, you only need to stall for another hour and a half, and the research will be nearly complete.

The data will be transmitted immediately." Fang Senyan smiled. This development only increased the pressure on Loki and his team.

When people are under intense stress, they often make mistakes they wouldn't normally commit. San Zai suddenly interjected: "Brother Yan, should we try burying them alive?" Fang Senyan shook his head slightly: "That possibility is slim.

Right now, the tunnel is only about twenty meters below ground. A collapse of this magnitude is far from enough to bury them alive." "More importantly, Loki's Gungnir is indestructible.

He is likely just unwilling to waste the spear's power right now, but that absolutely doesn't mean he has no way to escape from underground. To make them retreat in the face of difficulty, I have a better method.

The reason I chose the current approach is because I don't want to alert the snake and scare him away. If possible, why not try to make him drop that legendary weapon?" Hearing this, San Zai recognized the ambition in Fang Senyan’s eyes and fell silent.

The air inside the underground bunker was extremely foul, with many people excitedly smoking. Pale blue smoke intertwined, swirling so thickly it almost looked like a fire had broken out.

Fang Senyan slowly tapped his fingers on the tabletop, eyes closed, looking entirely unbothered, seemingly enjoying the secondhand smoke. After about ten minutes, he finally said: "Where have they reached now?" "They have broken through to Sector D2 and are about to enter Sector D3!" a technician reported.

Fang Senyan was silent for a moment: "These guys are advancing quickly. It seems they have adapted to the various traps and ambushes I set.

Heh heh, have you prepared what I requested earlier?" A technician nodded: "No problem! Everything is ready.

The thirty-seven machines urgently mobilized earlier have operated long enough to meet your requirements, sir." "Excellent." Fang Senyan stood up, narrowing his eyes like a hunter tracking prey caught in a snare, closely watching Loki's group accelerate their progress on the monitor. Clearly, these people had figured out the pattern of most traps and were starting to speed up.

For a powerhouse team like Loki’s, it was genuinely remarkable that Fang Senyan could manage the situation with manpower and weaponry sourced from the story elements to stall and delay them for so long. Facing Loki's rapid advance, Fang Senyan also sneered: "It seems they are anxious.

That’s perfect. This is the best time for us to strike...

Let's move the time forward by five minutes, and shift the location three kilometers south into an underground passage. Then you will hear Carlos’s furious shout: "Damn it, how could this be!!

The mission completion time has been reduced to only ninety minutes! This, this...

On what grounds!" Of the hired 'Life and Death' team, only two entered the underground with Loki; the remaining two, a sniper and an explosives expert, stayed outside as backup, as they were ill-suited for underground combat. The hired mercenaries actually hoped Loki's group would retreat after facing difficulties.

Loki paid generously, and they had already received their upfront fees. Steel File, however, laughed carelessly: "The shortening of the mission time only means the reward will increase.

These traps set by the Chinese are nothing special! Once we figure out the pattern, they are even less significant!

We can reach the destination in another half hour at most. It’s a bonus to receive extra rewards from the space system for free." Loki’s face was as stern as carved metal, etched with indescribable severity: "I always feel something is wrong." He gripped Gungnir behind him, and a soft white light immediately radiated, highlighting the faint blue color spreading along the veins on Loki's face.

Carlos saw Loki's face and tried to reassure him: "Boss, I think Steel File is right. Relax.

You probably won't need to exert yourself and worsen your injury. Haven't you been worried about Fu?

With Steel File here, even if he is the Dark Saint, would he dare to show himself? No matter how strong the Demon Sword Apophis is, it cannot withstand our combined strength!" Loki frowned: "What bothers me most is that point.

The last time I fought Fu, the fellow actually used his bare hands against my Gungnir. Although this forced him to reveal his last trump card, I still cannot comprehend why Fu would discard his greatest advantage?" "The situation back then was also quite bizarre.

I sensed signs of the space-time barrier being forcibly pierced, so I knew Fu must have been attempting a spatial teleportation at all costs. Logically, Fu would only risk the backlash of space transmission if something extremely critical happened.

Yet, when I arrived, Fu was in peak condition, and then we fought." "It is a bit strange," Steel File mused after hearing this. "I think this is the possibility: the servant controlling the Demon Sword Apophis might have been attacked, which is why Fu rushed over like his backside was on fire.

Since the servant was heavily injured, he naturally dared not reveal himself to you. As for why he didn't use the Demon Sword Apophis, that’s also explainable.

The Dark Saint operates on the fringes of spatial rules, and the Demon Sword Apophis does too. Staying combined for too long easily draws the attention of space itself.

Since Fu had just used an illicit ability, he naturally wouldn't dare commit another offense against the current." Hearing Steel File’s explanation, the others found it plausible. Loki, however, couldn't help but frown anxiously: "There is one other possibility: the servant was killed..." Carlos immediately refuted Loki's notion, stating seriously: "Boss, you don't know how abnormal that servant is.

To instantly kill that servant before Fu could arrive for aid, honestly, would require two of you working together!" Hearing Carlos, Loki gave a wry smile, realizing his guess was flawed. At this point, Steel File looked at Loki and barked sternly: "Our mission now is to eliminate that Dr.

W!!! Completing this mission yields substantial rewards.

Loki, your mind is scattered. Without the determination to advance and shatter everything, how can you be qualified to wield Gungnir?" Loki took a deep breath: "Yes, I understand." Steel File then charged forward again, bracing his shield and forcefully driving towards a temporary barricade ahead.

The roar of the machine guns couldn't slow his charge even slightly. Faced with this pack of ferocious awakeners, even a fully armed regular army was destroyed like withered grass!

However, just as they conquered this temporary barricade, a dying soldier shouted and slammed a red button. The passage ahead suddenly exploded violently; mud and stone tumbled down, sealing the tunnel once more!

Everyone present gasped in shock and hurriedly checked the mission radar. They realized that to detour, they would have to backtrack all the way to Sector F to take another fork!

Not only was the time lost in circling back significant, but this extra time might also be enough for the enemy to plant more explosives to collapse the tunnel. Loki's eyes immediately narrowed, intense spiritual energy surging throughout his body.

Even Steel File grimaced and retreated several steps. Then, Loki gripped Gungnir behind him, let out a great roar, and hurled it fiercely.

A sound of reverent hymns echoed in the air, and eyes were pierced by the fierce light. Light flashed—utterly invincible!

The collapse, nearly thirty meters ahead, was pierced clean through by Gungnir, revealing a passage tall enough for a man in the pile of rubble. The passage walls were flawless and smooth, still emitting residual heat and wisps of smoke.

Seeing Loki unleash his might, the others did not applaud or offer praise; instead, their eyes were bloodshot with rage, because through the tunnel Loki forcefully carved, they could faintly spot engineering lights over a hundred meters away—someone there was planting explosives as well. The group lunged forward in a mixture of shock and fury, but by this time, the explosives were likely installed.

The soldier inside did not hesitate and pressed the detonator! A terrifying collapse occurred again, blocking Loki’s path!

Steel File roared in fury: "Throw it again!"
