Chapter 246: Chapter 246: The Reluctant “Smiling Mountain of Corpses”_1 Chapter 246: Chapter 246: The Reluctant “Smiling Mountain of Corpses”_1 “It’s over…”

The last thought emerged in Qin Chuan and the others’ minds, and then their thoughts stopped abruptly.

However, before the shockwave of the explosion could spread,

a rumbling of engines that ordinary people couldn’t hear exploded at this moment…

The next moment, within a ten-meter radius of this area, everything froze as if in a photograph.

And within this stasis, only Colin could move…

“Damn, that was close, these people were actually a trap…”

Colin held the Time Stop Card in his hand, looking at the objects before him, his heart steely.

There, the bodies of more than a dozen armed men had been torn apart in the horrific explosion, the frozen blaze and fierce shockwave in a state of about to erupt but not yet erupted…

Each of these people was covered in high-performance explosives.

And there was more, Colin saw bullets coming from all directions in the explosion, frozen in mid-air.

Among the multitude of machine gun bullets, there were also a few large-caliber bullets that one could tell at a glance would tear a person in half!

The person behind the attack had been ruthless from the beginning, leaving no room for survival!

If it hadn’t been for the timely Time Stop, Colin estimated he himself would probably be dead by now!

No, even with Time Stop, under such successive fatal attacks, the odds were he could only wait for death…

Because more bullets were continuously being fired, slowing down as they entered a fifteen-meter radius, the numerous bullets densely filling the area nearly trapped Colin without escape…

Once the Time Stop effect ended, these attacks would come, and he would surely die.

But fortunately…

Colin’s face was calm, as he rolled the fingers holding the “Time Stasis” Golden Card from left to right, revealing yet another Golden Card —

“As long as I can react, I could even deflect lightning, let alone an explosion.”

After swiftly “marking” Qin Chuan and a few others, Colin used the inherent ability of “Repulsion Burst” to its full extent.

The very next instant, a rapid succession of sounds rang out beside his ears…

A terrifying repulsion force, with Colin at the center, sent everything flying away from him, except for a few people—this included the air, the sand beneath their feet, and the shattered limbs and shockwave, everything.

As a top-tier item from Bonfire Company, the Golden Card’s influence on matter was superior to all the things present!

In an instant, a circular crater fifteen meters in both depth and width appeared on the beach.

The group fell into it…

After successfully avoiding this nearly certain death trap, Colin then noticed that in the recent attack, although the people around him had escaped calamity, the other children a bit further away were not so lucky.

Under the attack of machine guns interspersed with some large-caliber bullets, limbs were shattered, blood sprayed…

Nearly no one among the dozens of people at the scene was left with an intact body.

Climbing out of the pit a little, Qin Chuan and the others, who didn’t know how they had escaped death, saw the scattered corpses all around, first their brains went blank, then their eyes filled with blood, their veins popping furiously.

They had protected these children all the way, and some feelings had developed.

Moreover, the great sacrifice made by 331 into getting them out, they thought they were home and everything was over, yet they ended up being betrayed!

“Gao Sheng, you motherfucker!” Qin Chuan looked at a little girl’s head shattered by bullets on the ground, at the milky rabbit candy she clutched in her lifeless hand beside her, and he nearly lost his mind.

He still remembered the childish questions she asked him on the train about what the world was like, what the real sun looked like, the stars, the moon…

He promised to take them to the amusement park.

But now…

Blood soaked the sand before them, while a mist of blood from exploded limbs hung over the battlefield, the smell of blood from a slaughterhouse hitting them in the face.

“Stay calm…”

Hu Zheng hurriedly held him back; the attack from outside hadn’t stopped, and to rashly rush out would mean certain death.

Before reaching the Sixth Level, they didn’t have the ability to disregard these weapons…

“Stay calm my ass, I’m going to fight it out with him!” Qin Chuan struggled free of Hu Zheng’s hold, grabbing a bunch of charms, intending to rush out and fight to the death.

But before he could crawl out, a hand grabbed his neck from behind and flung him backward.

“Get into the pit, protect the others.”

Colin’s face grim and his hand withdrawn, he sensed the situation outside without any delay and pulled out another card—”Smiling Mountain of Corpses”!

The next instant, all the corpses within the effect range melted, converging midair.

“Awooo!!!”

A massive, pitch-black sphere of flesh dropped into the center of the battlefield, emanating indescribable resentment and rage. As soon as it appeared, without waiting for Colin to utter a word, it withstood a barrage of weapon attacks and charged toward the enemies, who were shooting incessantly dozens of meters away, unleashing a piercing “psionic attack” from its mouth.

In an instant, several armed personnel shuddered and fell dead to the ground.

Meanwhile, the surface of Corpse Mountain writhed, and another face full of anger and resentment grew out of it…

Unlike before, the twisted faces that sprouted from it now seemed much more juvenile.

“Come back.”

Colin stopped Corpse Mountain from charging forward; his purpose for summoning it was to block attacks like bullets.

Otherwise, in this open area near the sea, stepping out would be like being used for target practice.

“These guys…”

Seeing the hair-raising barrage of bullets blocked by the massive body of Corpse Mountain, Colin took a ring with a large eyeball from his pocket, slipped it onto his finger, and a blurry ice-blue shadow flew out from it. Sensing his suppressed emotions, it didn’t speak much and cooperated by entering his body…

Afterward, Colin’s body became somewhat blurred, and he acquired the ability to fly quickly at low altitude.

After leaping out of the pit, he used Corpse Mountain’s huge size as cover and charged towards the enemy’s direction.

If there were no tank cannons involved, it would be difficult to completely destroy Corpse Mountain with just these weapons, especially this time, where the Corpse Mountain, seemingly because of an issue with the “sacrifice” source, had terrifyingly sinister smiling faces exuding intense bitterness and rage…

“Loads of enemies, thirty or more? Or even more? There are snipers, too, but no big deal. The most troublesome thing is inside one of those armored vehicles…”

Colin followed behind Corpse Mountain, assessing the enemy’s position.

However, just then, his footsteps halted when he felt a hand grasp at his foot from beneath the sand—it was Gao Sheng, an unknown Extraordinary One of the fifth or sixth level…

In his hand was a charm, which he attached to Colin’s foot.

A face also emerged from the sand and laughed, “Haha, Advanced Anomaly Dispel Talisman. Once stuck on you, all your Extraordinary Powers will be rendered useless…”

Before he could finish, Colin bent down swiftly and grasped the man’s face, pulling him out of the ground like uprooting a radish and holding him aloft.

At the same time, a terrifying chill surged along his arm into Gao Sheng’s body.

“How is this possible, you…” Before Gao Sheng could finish his sentence, his entire body was frozen solid.

“Sorry, I don’t have much in the way of Extraordinary Powers on me.”

With a determined gaze, Colin tightened his grip on the man’s head, crushing the frozen skull to pieces in an instant.

His body, now able to move one-ton objects even in a normal state, had no trouble crushing a brain that had been frozen to tens of degrees below zero.

His corpse was not wasted, directly devoured by Corpse Mountain…

The body of a high-ranking official caused it to almost sprout a third head.

However, Colin paid it no heed, and after killing him, continued to move forward while flashing through thoughts in his brain, guessing who the enemy attacking them might be.

This time, the enemies gave him a strong sense of being specifically targeted, with the initial wave of attacks being fatal had his methods been any less.

From the initial confusion to the subsequent arguments, followed by the narrowly averted multiple deadly attacks that almost rendered his “Deadly Insight” useless…

If it weren’t for a bit of luck and a quick reaction, he might have indeed perished.

“My enemies in reality seem to be only the ‘Red Moon’ believers, but it doesn’t seem like they’re the ones responsible this time, so that means…”

Swiftly, a name emerged in Colin’s mind—Liping.

The Eighth Level Ambassador he had seen when he joined the officials at the base.

And it was at that moment…

Realizing they couldn’t take Colin down by conventional means, several armed personnel opened the rear door of the last armored vehicle.

Behind the door was a woman bound in chains all over her body, her body covered in charms, sitting stiffly like a stone statue with an eerie smile that should not appear on a human face.
