Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 148 The Most Dangerous Place is Left to Me
Fanti's pupils reflected the ferocious face of the snake-dog, and through her helmet, she could smell the suffocating stench.

Boom!
The snake-dog pounced on Vatican.

It pressed Vatican to the ground with its large, rough hands.

"Let me go!" Vatican screamed.

A deep fear arose in her heart.

why!
There are so many people here, why is this Devouring Beast targeting me?
The Lord of Light and Shadow sent me!

She struggled desperately, but it was no match for the armored vehicle-sized snake-dog, which only made the snake-dog's eyes more excited.

The snake-dog opened its mouth, spraying a foul stench onto her.

Vatican was filled with fear; she had a premonition of what was about to happen.

She regretted it.

Perhaps she wasn't devout enough, perhaps the Lord of Light and Shadow wanted her to die, or perhaps...
The Lord of Light and Shadow does not exist.

The snake-dog lay on Vanti's body, its glowing tentacles behind its head swaying up and down, emitting a hazy blue light that lured the most primal thing within Vanti.

Wisps of blue light emanated from Vanti's pores.

Fanti involuntarily opened his lips to accommodate the snake-dog's movements.

Bang!
A gunshot rang out in the distance, breaking the stillness of time.

The orange-yellow bullet flew out from the other end of the convoy, spanning hundreds of meters, like a shark breaking through the water, and burrowed into the snake dog's eye socket.

"Ouch!"

The snake-dog yelped and released Vatican.

Vatican was in a daze; the blue light mist that had drifted out of her body contracted inward and returned to her body.

Her body trembled.

Looking at the snake-dog howling and rolling on the ground, she wore an incredulous expression.

Just now
She instinctively looked ahead at the convoy.

A gravity object stood in mid-air, its gun barrel pointed in her direction.

In an instant, Vatican's heart began to race.

It's him!

He saved me!

The joy of surviving the ordeal overwhelmed Vatican.

She grew up on the lighthouse and was chosen to join the Light and Shadow Society at a very young age, becoming a Light Bearer who enforces the law.

This was the first time she had encountered danger.

On the precipice of death, at the most thrilling and dangerous moment, the life essence had already left the body.
Suddenly, they were rescued!

Vatican was panting heavily, his face flushed.

Gazing at the gravity structure standing in mid-air in the distance, an indescribable surge of emotion welled up in her heart, causing her heart to race violently, almost bursting out of her heaving chest.

Bai Yuetian gazed at Vatican City, somewhat surprised.

He didn't expect that it was Vatican who was knocked down by the snake dog; he thought it was some unlucky hunter.

The Vatican's meager weaponry was practically nonexistent on the ground. Anyone with a sound mind would have stayed near the vehicle and sought refuge with the hunters.

The vehicle they were in was driven by gravity-based drivers, including elite drivers like Feixue.

As long as no mutated Devouring Beast appears, it's extremely safe!

Why is this woman running around like this?

Has religious depravity driven you mad?
Bai Yuetian was somewhat puzzled.

But apart from being so religiously obsessed that it went mad, there's no other explanation.

Bai Yuetian couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The Lord of Light and Shadow is nothing more than a means for the church to fool people. It's one thing for the people below to believe it, but this woman herself believes it?
With limited fuel, Bai Yuetian manipulated the gravity body to fall.

He didn't take off specifically to rescue people; he just glanced back as he was preparing to land.

Looking around, Bai Yuetian frowned slightly.

Gravel blocked the road ahead.

Geological disasters in the Old World turned the surface into a wrinkled rag, with canyons everywhere and extremely inconvenient transportation.

The convoy was traveling through a relatively wide canyon, but the Bamicanthus destroyed the fragile upper rock walls of the canyon, and the falling rocks completely blocked the canyon.

The gravity bodies all stood on nearby high points, suppressing the surrounding snakes and dogs.

The Dust People busied themselves among the rubble, bullets flying overhead, and predatory Devouring Beasts lurking all around.

“4079!” Bai Yuetian shouted.

A person stood up from the pile of stones: "Here!"

Bai Yuetian raised his mask, revealing his face, and said in a deep voice, "I promised 4068 that I would take care of you. Don't leave my shooting range."

"Thank you!" 4079 said with a happy expression.

Almost all the upper class treated the lower class with disdain, but this did not include 1012!

"Moonlight, you're here!" Erica greeted.

She stood on a huge rock, holding a multi-barrel Gatling gun.

Suddenly, a snake-dog jumped down from above.

Erica turned the cannon and unleashed its full power, instantly turning the snake-dog into a bloody mist, leaving no trace of its body.

Bai Yuetian exclaimed, "Your firepower is truly formidable!"

"Hehe, isn't that amazing!" Erica pouted smugly.

Erica's Gravity Body, modified by Jessica, is particularly outstanding in terms of firepower and defense, making it the main force for the team's offensive operations.

Bai Yuetian gave a thumbs up: "That's amazing! When can I try it too?"

"Then you'll have to find Jessica and go to the Dawn Hall with her. Maybe she'll help you with the modifications," Mo Cheng said with a smile.

Erica snapped, "Mo Cheng, shut up!"

Bai Yuetian surveyed his surroundings.

The situation is tense, but the hunters are in good spirits.

Despite its large size, Mark kept the Diplades firmly under control, walking them like dogs.

The road is being cleared quickly, and a road that can be used by vehicles will soon be available.

Bai Yuetian also saw Rita.

After surviving a near-death experience, Rita was noticeably more cautious, standing further back with a gravitational object nearby.

He's starting to show the demeanor of a veteran.

“There are more and more snakes and dogs; how long will it take to clear the road?” Ran Bing asked. Donnie replied, “Three minutes at most!”

At this critical moment of life and death, no one among the common people slacked off. Everyone used the strength they had when eating insect cakes to move stones. Let alone slacking off, they wished they could split themselves in two to use their strength!
As time went by, the roads became cleaner, but the number of snakes and dogs around them also increased.

"White Moon Sky!"

Ran Bing called out urgently, "Come this way!"

Bai Yuetian turned his head.

Ran Bing lay prone on the roof of the car, firing. There were only two gravity machines around her, while more than a dozen snake dogs rushed down from the top of the cliff.

Ran Bing could no longer hold her line of defense.

Once the defensive line breaks down, the snake-dogs will break into the Hunter's formation, and the situation will inevitably take a sharp turn for the worse!

"They're here." Bai Yuetian said calmly.

He breathed fire from the soles of his feet and arrived beside Ran Bing in a few leaps.

The snake-dog running in the lead had already reached the vicinity of the car. Relying on its thick skin and massive kinetic energy, it crashed straight into the car.

Bai Yuetian put his arm around Ran Bing's waist and lifted her off the roof of the car.

He fired quickly with his other hand.

The bullet left the barrel and struck the tentacle of the running snake-dog precisely.

The snake-dog, in pain, staggered and fell, its body rolling into a ball on the ground before crashing straight into the car at Bai Yuetian's feet.

Bai Yuetian stomped hard, and his body soared into the air.

Bang!Bang!Bang!
The three shots severed the remaining tentacles of the snake-dog, which thrashed about in pain, temporarily ceasing its movements.

At this moment, the other snake dogs rushed down.

The two gravity machines next to them opened fire wildly, and other available gravity machines nearby also pointed their guns in this direction to provide support.

Ran Bing wasn't idle either.

She held the gun and fired from Bai Yuetian's arms.

A specially designed bullet pierced the skull of a snake-dog, forcing it offline.

However, there are still more than ten snake dogs remaining.

"Fall back!"

Ran Bing said in a deep voice, "Contract the defenses!"

In the process of shrinking the defensive line, some hunters and commoners will inevitably lose their lives, but this is unavoidable.

At the same time, facing the attack of more than ten snake-dogs, the defense line here can no longer hold. If we do not take advantage of the situation to retreat and allow the snake-dogs to wreak havoc inside the defense line, the losses will only be greater!

At that moment, Bai Yuetian's voice rang out.

"Erica!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a visible, violent tongue of fire swept over from not far away.

Several snake-dogs were unable to dodge in time and were instantly torn to pieces.

"That's all I can do!" Erica moved the cannon away; her own situation was also dire, and she couldn't continue to support Ran Bing.

Or rather, everyone's situation was critical at that moment.

The convoy stopped here, and the five-minute artillery barrage attracted all the snakes and dogs in the vicinity!

Bai Yuetian answered with a strong voice, "That's enough!"

Erica's barrage of fire interrupted the Snake Dogs' collective charge.

The snakes and dogs that charged down are now fighting their own battles.

There are twelve left in total.

"Lieutenant Ran Bing, don't shrink the defensive line. Leave the most dangerous areas to me." Bai Yuetian looked at the pack of snakes and dogs baring their fangs and claws in front of him, his tone utterly calm.

Ran Bing was slightly taken aback: "Can you do it?"

Bai Yuetian nodded.

He put Ran Bing down, drew his chainsaw sword, and then took a deep breath.

"call--"

Click!

It was as if a clock hand was ticking beside his ear.

The air became viscous, and the people and snakes seemed to be moving in slow motion underwater, with every movement incredibly slow. Even the bullets had visible trajectories.

Bai Yuetian's eyes were blank.

He suddenly lowered his body, unleashed the full power of the jets, and his body fell into the pack of snakes and dogs like a cannonball.

The snakes and dogs immediately became agitated.

The tentacles float up and down, and information is exchanged through a special neurotransmitter.

They all turned around and decided to deal with this audacious fellow who had come to his death first.

Bang! A gunshot rang out.

The tentacles of a snake-dog were broken off.

"Roar!" the snake-dog roared in pain.

Fire erupted from Bai Yuetian's feet as he teleported to the snake-dog's side.

He moved close to the snake-dog's body as if he had a premonition, and with the immense force amplified by the gravity, he sliced ​​off the snake-dog's upper half of its head.

Thump! The body fell heavily to the ground.

More snakes and dogs lunged at them.

Bai Yuetian moved as lightly as a butterfly, drifting with the air currents stirred up by the snakes and dogs.

From some unknown moment, his gravitational body seemed to suddenly lose its mass, and he became like a ballerina on Swan Lake, dancing gracefully amidst death and cheers.

The snake-dogs' barren brains couldn't understand why this metal shell was so hard to catch.

They want to give up, but whenever a snake-dog shows any sign of retreating, a bullet hits its tentacle, driving it mad.

The chainsaw sword roared as humanity's technological marvels continued to sever the bodies of Mana's creations.

Snake Dog fell one after another while chasing Bai Yuetian.

The defense line held incredibly well.

Ran Bing was speechless.

He single-handedly fought off more than ten snake-dogs and killed most of them. Even Mark in Dawnbreaker wasn't that powerful!
"The road is cleared!" Donnie exclaimed.

Ran Bing came to her senses.

She shouted, "Keep moving! The signal station is just ahead!"
