Chapter 279 - 268: A Slap from Reality

Chapter 279: Chapter 268: A Slap from Reality

Watching the Superpower Users from the two bases charge at each other, Mengde gave a faint smile.

It was as if victory was already in his grasp.

Previously, to cover for Mengde’s rescue mission, Brother Jingfu and the others hadn’t been using their full strength.

They had just been stalling for time.

Even Lei Qiang had been holding back, barely making a move.

And even so, they had nearly fought their way through the entire Hengsheng Base.

But now, with a single command from Mengde!

All the Superpower Users from Yulong Base were like wild horses let off the leash, completely unleashed.

They immediately entered sweep mode.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Mengde only had a hundred or so people on his side.

Numerically, they were at a huge disadvantage.

But Mengde’s people were all elites he had personally trained.

Every single one of them had taken the system reward Mengde had previously obtained—the Superpower Boundary-Breaking Pill!

Even the slowest to advance had reached Tier Six.

The fastest were already at Tier Seven!

In other bases, a Tier Six might be a pillar of the community, a squad leader.

But in Mengde’s base, they were just another Superpower User!

This was the gap in Superpower Levels!!!

This was the gap in quality!!!

And a qualitative change can indeed bring about a quantitative one.

Furthermore, Mengde’s subordinates fought life-and-death battles with zombies every day.

This was something the Superpower Users of Hengsheng Base had never experienced.

On top of that, there was one crucial point: Brother Jingfu and his men were currently surrounded.

Normally, being surrounded meant life or death.

But right now, it had become an advantage for the Superpower Users from Yulong Base!

Because both sides were extremely close to each other.

And many of the people surrounding them were armed with pistols.

They say that beyond seven steps, a gun is faster; but within seven steps, a Superpower User is faster!

And there was truth to that saying.

And sure enough, before the men from Hengsheng Base could even open fire, Mengde’s Superpower Users had already closed the distance, getting right in their faces.

Superpower Users not only awakened Superpowers, but their physical abilities were also enhanced.

The moment they engaged, their close-combat advantage was on full display.

In an instant, a hundred or so Superpower Users and ordinary people were struck down.

This was followed by a wave of basic Superpower attacks, initiating the sweep!

Another large swath of Hengsheng Base guards was killed.

Only then did the people from Hengsheng Base finally react.

Just as they were about to counterattack, another wave of Superpowers swept over them.

They were killed before they could even unleash their own Superpowers.

The Superpower Users from Hengsheng Base further back finally found an opportunity to strike.

But the power of their attacks was nowhere near that of the people from Yulong Base.

Thus, in the exchange of Superpowers, they were immediately at a disadvantage.

Many of their Superpower Users were instantly and severely injured.

As for the others with guns, they had no opportunity to fire at all, as the fighters from both bases were completely entangled.

Seeing this, Zhao Dong fell into a panic.

Although he had already anticipated that his side would lose,

he never expected the defeat to be so swift!

’We can’t win!’

’We really can’t win!’

Back when they fought Gao’s Base, his own Hengsheng Base had been utterly crushed.

But now against these hundred-plus people, his side was even more outmatched.

Especially when he saw Yu Jingfu and Lei Qiang, who were cutting through the crowd like an unstoppable force.

’Those motherfuckers are both Tier Eight!’

’How am I supposed to fight that?!’

’Judging by the way that Yu Jingfu is charging, he’s coming straight for me.’

Watching his subordinates fall one by one before his very eyes,

Zhao Dong completely panicked.

’If I go up there and fight, I won’t stand a chance!’

"Zhao Dong, let’s see where you can run to this time!"

"I’m going to avenge my dead brothers!"

He thought of the brothers he had brought with him to rescue Gao’s Base.

Now, he was the only one left!

How could he not be filled with hatred?

"Die!!!"

Watching the approaching Yu Jingfu, who was radiating pure killing intent,

sent a shiver down his spine!

’No!’

’I can’t just sit here and wait to die.’

He knew he didn’t stand a chance against the murderous Yu Jingfu.

’Then I’ll just let my subordinates face him.’

’As long as I don’t die, it’s fine.’

Zhao Dong was already backing away, desperately looking for an escape route.

He couldn’t go forward.

But behind him... He suddenly saw the Gao Brothers emerging from the base.

And especially Mengde, the one who had just spoken!

’Since that kid can command Yu Jingfu and the others,’

’if I capture him and threaten them to stop... wouldn’t that be my way out?!’

At this thought, Zhao Dong’s eyes lit up.

"Hmph!"

’I may not be able to beat Yu Jingfu, but I can damn well handle a few women!’

That was right!

Part of the reason Zhao Dong thought this was that he had his eye on those women.

Even if he couldn’t capture Mengde, the man giving the orders, capturing one of the women would also work.

It would at least make Yu Jingfu and the others hesitate.

With this idea in mind, Zhao Dong ignored the charging Yu Jingfu.

He dashed straight for the rear.

His target was none other than the one giving the orders, Mengde!!!

"You damn brat, get over here and die!!!"

Zhao Dong’s face was a mask of savagery.

However, in his haste, he failed to notice that Yu Jingfu, who was behind him, had suddenly stopped in his tracks.

And a disdainful smirk had appeared on his lips.

’Capture our boss? Isn’t that just asking for death!’

So, Yu Jingfu paid him no mind and charged directly at the other members of Hengsheng Base.

His only regret was that he probably wouldn’t be able to get his revenge with his own hands.

’But it doesn’t matter. If my boss takes action, he’ll be avenging me just the same.’

Watching Zhao Dong charge toward him, Mengde also gave a disdainful smile.

He was just about to make a move when the women beside him unexpectedly stopped him.

"Oh, honey!"

"You’ve already acted so many times. It’s our turn now, right?"

"Yeah! We haven’t had a chance to fight since breaking through to Tier Nine."

Persuaded like this, Mengde decided to just let them handle it.

"Alright, alright!"

"I’ll leave it to you."

With that, Mengde took a step back, handing the spotlight over to Da Mimi and the others.

Seeing this, Da Mimi and the other women were delighted.

"Don’t worry, we’ve got this!"

Saying this, the women stepped forward, positioning themselves directly in front of Mengde.

And they began to channel their Superpowers...

When Zhao Dong saw Mengde actually hiding behind women, he became even more ecstatic.

’He really is just a coward who hides behind women.’

He could almost see the image of himself capturing the women with his own hands.

Thus, Zhao Dong frantically activated his Superpower, his hands transforming into wolf claws!

This was his Superpower—Wolf Transformation!!!

It could turn his hands into razor-sharp wolf claws!

Except against Yu Jingfu, it had always been unstoppable!

In his eyes, these women were no different from corpses.

"Such beautiful women, what a pity..."

However, in the next second, reality came back to slap him in the face... HARD.

"AH!!! My hands!!!"
