Sky-cracking Rider

Chapter 347 Section 343 - Lurking Mutant

Neanderthal Chief Bassan was expressionless, neither happy nor sad: "..."

Metal Ability User Kiterley was equally indifferent, as if one more or one less person made no difference.

His choice of Bassan was just a spontaneous thought, maybe along the way, he might just run off by himself.

"Eh?!!"

Fire Mage Adrian Benjamin was dumbfounded, his side was clearly not at an advantage, yet it managed to attract this passionate, stunning beauty, which was quite unexpected.

He eagerly clapped his hands in cheer.

"Welcome, welcome, hearty welcome!"

"Bassan, Kiterley, and Mr. Benjamin, please take good care of everything!"

Approaching gracefully, Susanna Jean Piault blew a kiss that somehow caused the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees Celsius.

The Neanderthal Chief and the A-rank Metal Ability User remained expressionless, showing no signs of welcome.

Only Adrian Benjamin, scratching his head and grinning foolishly, seemed excited, as if he were the only one eagerly participating.

This was indeed an odd combination.

"Aren't you coming?"@@@@

Mouri Misono sighed in disappointment; she would have loved to be on the same team as Susanna, to liven up the journey.

But several small teams had already formed on their own, each well-rounded with offense and defense, capable of both solo and group combat, covering all bases.

Riding the Blue Scaled Colt, the Holy Knight brandishing his great sword shouted, "Let's move out, I'll handle scouting ahead! Giddy-up!"

Hoofbeats like war drums, his mount dashed ahead, and out of the desert nearby, a massive Mutant burst through, revealing its fierce form and pouncing towards the speeding duo.

"Wahhhh!"

Caught off guard, Knight Walter Sam yelped, trying to pull the reins, but the Blue Scaled Colt had already picked up full speed and couldn't stop, charging at the Mutant with its gaping maw of fanged teeth.

"┗|`O′|┛ Ao~~ Die!"

A brilliant flash of sword light soared, as the Blue Scaled Colt neighed.

The Mutant, as big as a locomotive's front, reeled with its gaping maw, shaking a few times before collapsing into pieces with a loud crash.

A cloud of dry dust rose, spreading in all directions.

"There are quite a few Mutants lurking nearby,"

came the voice of the large, black figure Habulav from the armored bus; he leaned against the bus front, holding a tablet computer, seemingly navigating it without needing to look at the screen.

Even with tall fences and routine patrols and purging, situating headquarters in the middle of a Mutant-infested area inevitably led to many slip through the cracks, right under their noses, impossible to completely eradicate.

"Ha! Are you alright, Mr. Sam?"

Mouri Misono, holding twin blades, worriedly looked toward where the Mutant had fallen.

Damn it, so much for the so-called strongest AI in history, is this the level?

Poor review!

Although the data chain was disconnected, the information previously acquired was still there, saved directly as a picture file like a map; all that was needed was to follow the map to find the hiding places of those cunning mutants.

Joshua's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, "Locating mutants? Can you even do that? Isn't that... cheating?"

Chen Fei indifferently replied, "Ha? It's a skill, a skill of a Metal Ability User. Can you call it cheating?"

With the information from the data chain just obtained, there was no need to risk the lives of the Holy Knight Walter Sam and Twin Blades Sister Mouri Misono to physically clear "mines."

Just like that, it's done!

Chen Fei patted the half-person-tall large box beside him, still equipped with four solid rubber wheels.

Ten mortar shells, fifty grenades, two hundred 30mm armor-piercing incendiary rounds, fifty kilograms of White Steel ingots.

These were consumables for the Metal Ability, should be sufficient!

Startle the snake by hitting the grass?

Are these rounds not fragrant enough?

If they keep hiding, let's just bury them on the spot and never come out again.

"This is really too unfair!"

Puppet Master Joshua could hardly bear to watch.

Chen Fei's approaches couldn't be used in a one-on-one situation, but at this moment, used against mutants, they were surprisingly fitting.

"It's about to start!"

Chen Fei opened the box and pulled out a mortar shell.

The two-meter-long barrel crouched on the ground, the muzzle angled towards the sky.

With a release of his hand, the projectile slid down the barrel.

Bang!

The shell flew out, tracing a parabola and crashing two kilometers away on the ground.

It missed the target, probably by seventeen or eighteen meters.

A tentacled beast mutant suddenly emerged from the ground, snatching wildly in all directions - naturally, it caught nothing and was about to retract when the second shell arrived, blasting it into a shower of flesh and blood. Even if it didn't die on the spot, it couldn't escape being killed by other mutants.

Finding corrections was too easy, the task of calculating was entirely up to "Adam," with instantaneous results, Chen Fei only needed to adjust according to the output and wait for the shells to hit precisely.

As for the culprits, they stood two kilometers away, each holding a can of beer, clinking cans with the Puppet Master.

Tilting back their heads, they guzzled down the beer enthusiastically!

Awesome!~
