Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1208 Human Counterattack

Those treasures are said to have the power to change the course of the war. Once they fall into the hands of humans, they will surely bring a turning point to the war.

'Power armor', this epoch-making war machine, has become the ultimate weapon coveted by many forces since its birth with its unparalleled protection and mobility.

However, its high cost and technical barriers make it difficult even for wealthy countries, not to mention ordinary people.

The operation and maintenance of this kind of heavy equipment requires extremely high professional skills and physical fitness. Even if ordinary people put it on, it is difficult to exert its true power, let alone compete with steel behemoths like tanks on the plains.

But it is precisely this expensiveness and complexity that gives it a unique status - it has become the exclusive vehicle of the extraordinary ones, and a powerful weapon for those warriors who have mastered strength and abilities beyond ordinary people to gallop on the battlefield.

Artificial superhumans, the product of this new era, their appearance has completely changed the pattern of war.

Unlike traditional soldiers, the existence of these artificial superhumans has increased the intensity and scale of the war to unprecedented heights.

In order to meet the needs of these extraordinary people, the scientific research team received unprecedented financial support. They devoted themselves day and night to the research and development of new power armor. Every breakthrough meant a major change on the battlefield.

Money, this seemingly vulgar but extremely practical thing, has demonstrated its amazing power in this era.

With ample funding, scientific research teams are able to think outside the box and try ideas that were once considered crazy.

In the laboratories, various new materials, energy systems, and artificial intelligence-assisted systems have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. They are cleverly integrated into power armor, allowing the performance of these war machines to be refreshed again and again.

Every iteration is an ultimate pursuit of technology and power.

With the continuous addition of extraordinary people, the situation on the battlefield becomes more complex and changeable.

Amid the roar, missiles fell like raindrops, turning buildings into ruins. Ten-meter-high smoke and flames were like the end of the world, engulfing everything.

In the midst of the smoke, a giant reptilian predator roared out of the ruins.

It is indestructible, like a heavy armored vehicle rampaging through the ruins, causing buildings to collapse and casualties wherever it goes.

"I'll hold it!"

A roar pierced through the smoke, and a transcendent in power armor stepped forward.

He held a heavy alloy shield taller than himself, and faced the charge of the giant reptilian predator. He bent his legs slightly, and the thrusters of his power armor suddenly started up, carrying him and the shield like a black lightning, heading towards the invincible beast.

"Come on, monster, look here—"

The extraordinary being deliberately slowed down his pace and provoked the giant reptilian predator with words, trying to attract its attention.

The giant reptilian predator was fooled and gave up the weak targets around it. It locked its eyes on the extraordinary being and rushed over at an even faster speed. It had only one thought in its mind - to crush, tear apart, and eat this guy who dared to challenge it.

Just as the two were about to collide, a violent gunshot broke the silence.

A 40mm caliber tungsten steel armor-piercing bullet flew at supersonic speed and accurately hit the forelimb of the giant reptilian predator.

This bullet, almost as thick as a carrot, was a heavy anti-material sniper bullet designed specifically for combating supernatural creatures. The bullet penetrated the armor of the giant reptile predator as easily as a hot knife cutting through butter. The huge impact force instantly broke one of the giant reptile predator's forelimbs, splattering blood and minced meat, leaving a bowl-sized wound that went straight through the joint.

The armor-piercing bullet's power was still there, and it continued to penetrate the concrete floor, creating a dent the size of a washbasin, and eventually embedding itself deeply into it. This shows how terrifyingly powerful it was.

"Hit the target,"

The sniper's voice was calm and firm, transmitted across the battlefield via the radio waves.

The window of a building next to the street suddenly exploded, debris scattered, revealing the figure of a sniper.

He was wearing camouflage uniform, his face was covered with camouflage paint, and he carried a heavy anti-material sniper rifle on his shoulder. No, to be more precise, it was a sniper cannon.

The caliber of this sniper cannon is large enough to make people jaw-dropping. Every shot is accompanied by huge recoil and deafening gunshot, but its terrifying destructive power also makes it a scythe of death that reaps the lives of extraordinary creatures on the battlefield.

The battle did not stop because of this. The extraordinary man took advantage of the giant reptilian predator's brief sluggishness due to pain and quickly adjusted his posture. The mechanical arm of the power armor waved the heavy shield and smashed towards the giant reptilian predator with the force of a mountain.

The moment the shield collided with the giant reptilian predator's head armor, there was a deafening metal collision sound and sparks flew.

With the help of the reaction force of the attack, the extraordinary man aimed the shoulder muzzle of the power armor at the giant reptile predator on the side of his body, and the big knife in his hand accurately hit the giant reptile predator's weakness - the fragile neck.

Like a cutting machine, it instantly cut through the armor and flesh of the giant reptilian predator. The giant reptilian predator let out a shrill wail, and its huge body fell down with a bang, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Several power armor warriors stood among the ruins, their figures elongated in the afterglow of the setting sun, the metallic luster flickering coldly in the faint light.

Their target was a giant crawling predator that had just stumbled out of the ruins.

This creature is huge, almost as big as a small building, covered with a thick shell with sharp black-brown spines arranged in an orderly manner, as if it were a defensive weapon given by nature.

Its eyes were like burning coals, flashing with primitive savagery and ferocity. Its mouth was dripping with sticky saliva, emitting a disgusting stench.

"Ready, three, two, one, attack!"

The leader of the power armored warriors issued instructions through the built-in communication system. Following his order, the alloy spears in the hands of several power armored warriors started instantly, making a low buzzing sound, like wild horses about to break free, ready to go.

These spears are not ordinary weapons, but precision devices built with high technology.

There is a micro hydraulic motor inside the gun body, which can instantly accelerate to ultra-high speed rotation after receiving the command, thereby enhancing the penetration and cutting ability.

Buzz buzz buzz——

With a burst of dense buzzing, the spears seemed to come alive, transforming into silver whirlwinds that carried unparalleled power and speed, heading straight for the vital points of the giant reptilian predator.

The power armored warriors used their inhuman physique as transcendents and the extra power provided by the power armor to maximize the attack.
