Bai Chen adjusted his posture and slowly aimed, while Long Yuehong, clad in the "Black Swamp Iron Serpent" bionic smart armor, and Genaava, in the "Chameleon" bionic smart armor, stealthily approached the hidden cave.

" 'Mind Guidance' can be ignored; they don't understand you, it shouldn't work," Jiang Baimian reminded Shang Jianyao, tilting her head.

Although she knew that with Shang Jianyao's combat intelligence and experience, he couldn't possibly be unaware of this, she was always afraid that he would suddenly switch to that personality who tried different things, so it was nominally a reminder, but actually a "warning."

Shang Jianyao, who was warming up for the battle, responded with an indifferent expression:

"If you don't follow, they'll shake you off."

His warm-up movements were based on the broadcast calisthenics he had learned from Wang Fugui, precise and lively.

Hearing his words, Jiang Baimian's breath caught, she gritted her teeth, fixed her eyes on Long Yuehong's back, and, piloting the military exoskeleton, followed step by step.

The reason she didn't anchor on Genaava was that the intelligent robot had already hidden himself with the help of the "Chameleon" bionic smart armor and disappeared from her sight.

Although Jiang Baimian could still sense the presence of electrical signals, she didn't think it was safe enough, and chose to believe what she saw.

Soon, Long Yuehong saw the four "Heartless" acting as guards outside the cave.

They were all male, and like ordinary "Heartless," slightly hunched over, their eyes were turbid and bloodshot, their hair was messy and greasy, and the muscles on their faces were somewhat deformed.

At this time, they were all wearing ill-fitting, patched clothes, and were holding rifles, shotguns, and submachine guns respectively.

For large, formal forces, having too many types of weapons is not a good thing, after all, every type of ammunition must be prepared, and every type of firearm must be repaired, which particularly affects logistical efficiency, but even relic hunters can't afford to care about this, let alone the "Heartless" who use whatever they can and throw it away when they're done.

Long Yuehong watched the four "Heartless" intently, waiting for Bai Chen to fire the first shot.

In a very faint sound, a bullet flew quickly and entered the head of the "Heartless" with the submachine gun.

His head bloomed like a bright red flower.

As if it were a flare, Long Yuehong and Jiang Baimian jumped out of their hiding places at the same time and charged towards the cave.

During the charge, they did not forget to use their assault rifles and the submachine guns of the military exoskeleton for fire suppression.

In the dense gunfire, one of the three "Heartless" had his head blown open, killed by Bai Chen's gun, one was pressed against his body by Genaava, who had sneaked close, and the trigger was pulled, and one was hit by several bullets, spraying blood.

As they fell to the ground, a "Heartless" in the cave noticed the movement and rushed out.

This was a woman, her face was dirty, and she was wearing a baseball cap.

As her eyes locked on Jiang Baimian, who had overtaken Long Yuehong and ran to the front, half of Jiang Baimian's body suddenly became paralyzed, making it difficult to control the military exoskeleton, and she tilted to the side.

At the same time, the woman raised the shotgun in her hand.

Jiang Baimian's eyes suddenly became blurred, and the woman "Heartless"'s shotgun was raised two inches.

Bang!

A large amount of iron sand sprayed into the air.

"Spatial Hallucination!"

Jiang Baimian used "Spatial Hallucination" to make the enemy misjudge and aim at an empty place.

As a "Heartless," the woman had the intuition of a beast. After failing with one shot, she sensed the danger and hurriedly retreated into the cave to escape from another exit.

But at this time, her feet were out of control.

"Loss of Limb Movement!"

Boom!

Jiang Baimian, who had fallen to the ground, fired a rocket at the entrance of the cave.

The explosion engulfed the "Advanced Heartless," tearing apart part of her body.

In the diffused smoke, Genaava and Long Yuehong rushed into the cave one after the other.

The first thing that came into their eyes was the human corpses hanging high, gently swaying with the wind and waves stirred up by the explosion just now.

These corpses were stripped naked, some even lost their skin, exposing flesh and blood.

There were dozens of them, the wilderness wanderers from the settlement that had been attacked before, the youngest of whom was only a few years old, and they were being dried there.

Seeing this scene, Long Yuehong's eyes turned red instantly.

He picked up the "Berserker" assault rifle in his hand and started strafing the "Heartless" who had just dodged the aftermath of the explosion.

With the sound of gunfire, one "Heartless" after another was hit by bullets before they could react, either with one blood hole after another appearing on their bodies, or with their bodies becoming incomplete.

Just as Long Yuehong was about to change the magazine, his mind suddenly buzzed, and a strong, instinctive fear surged from the bottom of his heart.

He began to tremble, he forgot to use his weapon, he saw a dark-skinned man who looked like half an iron tower walking out of the depths of the cave.

The man's hair was like a chicken coop, his eyes were turbid, and he was full of ferocity, like another "Heartless."

He was only wearing a pair of canvas trousers, his upper body was naked, and he kept making low roars.

A chilling aura spread out, and Long Yuehong's legs weakened, and he almost couldn't bear the weight of his body.

At this time, Genaava, who would not be affected, was fighting fiercely with several "Heartless" who were hiding their bodies with the help of the rocks in the cave and had quite outstanding skills.

Some of those "Heartless" used individual combat rocket launchers, and some held sniper rifles that were more suitable for long distances, all of which could threaten Genaava to a certain extent.

Of course, Genaava didn't care too much, because he was now wearing another layer of "Chameleon" bionic smart armor. He just thought that he had to suppress these enemies because of the environment in the cave, so as not to hurt Jiang Baimian who came in later with the shock waves and debris generated by the explosion.

As for Long Yuehong, with the "Black Swamp Iron Serpent" bionic smart armor, Genaava didn't think there was too much to worry about.

As for Jiang Baimian, the kind of substantive fear seemed to have turned into an iron hammer, hitting her heart over and over again.

However, just entering the cave, she not only did not tremble, did not shake, but looked excited.

Another "Advanced Heartless"? The one Lao Ge mentioned before? Such a small "Heartless" group actually has two "Advanced Heartless," which is really abnormal… Jiang Baimian discarded the individual combat rocket launcher, and bearing the suffocating fear, picked up the grenade launcher.

"Stimulus Dysregulation!"

Because Genaava had侦察 (zhencha) this information before, Jiang Baimian had 미리 (mili) modified her response to similar stimuli, turning fear into excitement and excitement.

And the inspiration for this modification came from Shang Jianyao.

Bang!

A grenade flew towards the strong-bodied, dark-skinned "Advanced Heartless," and his legs suddenly lost their proper movement.

Boom!

The male "Advanced Heartless" was hit in the upper body by the grenade and was enveloped by the explosion, instantly falling apart.

Immediately afterwards, the "Heartless" who were playing "hide-and-seek" with Genaava jumped out one after another, "brave" beyond compare.

In the sound of gunfire, they fell under Genaava's strafing fire.

On the other side, Long Yuehong returned to normal and rushed into the depths of the cave.

He skillfully changed the magazine of the "Berserker" assault rifle and continued to clear the enemies along the way with short bursts.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in his eyes.

This was a "Heartless" who was less than ten years old.

Except for his turbid eyes, except for the muscles on his face and the teeth in his mouth having a certain mutation for tearing and chewing, he was no different from a normal human child.

He was hunched over, looking at Long Yuehong warily, his body constantly trembling, his eyes full of tears that were filled with fear, looking helpless and pitiful.

Long Yuehong hesitated for a moment and did not pull the trigger.

At this moment, the young "Heartless" took out a hand grenade with the pin pulled out at some point, and threw it at Long Yuehong with a fierce look in his eyes.

Long Yuehong's pupils froze, and he reflexively lunged to the side, curling his body in mid-air.

Boom!

Long Yuehong dodged the front, but a large number of fragments, driven by the aftermath, hit the bionic smart armor on his body and failed to penetrate it.

And the only place he was not protected was the T1 mechanical arm, whose hardness was even better than the "Black Swamp Iron Serpent."

Huff, as Long Yuehong gasped and rolled to his feet, the young "Heartless" had already been riddled with holes by Jiang Baimian.

As one "Heartless" after another fell to the ground, the assault team arrived at the depths of the cave, where only two young female "Heartless" and several children behind them remained.

The two "Heartless" stared at Long Yuehong and the others with extremely tense bodies, blocking the cubs, whose average age was no more than five years old but were full of ferocity, behind them.

They made whimpering sounds, trying to scare away the enemies, but they were trembling uncontrollably, revealing their inner fear.

They did not retreat a single step.

Jiang Baimian and Long Yuehong slowed down at the same time and did not launch an attack.

At this moment, a grenade passed over them and flew towards the depths of the cave.

In the sound of the explosion, the figures fell down.

Genaava came to Jiang Baimian and Long Yuehong's side and said in a slightly synthesized voice:

"They are now enemies of mankind, and being merciful to them is a crime against mankind."
