Chapter 29: Guardians

The man had a keen sense of perception and clearly sensed the murderous intent. He lifted his head, his eyes reflecting a sense of judgment.

This was the third district.

These ignorant creatures all deserved to be nailed to the ground.

"Ammunition, indiscriminate attack, combat camp ready, targets are the isolated monsters, this is a crucial battle, not a single one must be left alive!"

The man, engulfed in flames of anger, had forgotten his initial caution. In his eyes at this moment, there was only the desire to kill the monsters in front of him and avenge the innocent people who had died in the city of J.

Feng Zhiyong.

This was the man's name. In his over twenty years of military career, he was not only a former king of soldiers but also a qualified commander.

When the doomsday arrived, he only had a moment of distraction and then quickly regained his composure, and worked tirelessly to organize the remaining forces. The city of J had three districts, and in the past few days, he had already reclaimed two of them. This was the third district, and the hardest hit area with the most monsters.

Feng Zhiyong was not hot-headed. He was a good commander, dedicated to the people. In the past few days, he had encountered countless dangers, but it had not caused him to hesitate or panic. On the contrary, the monsters' counterattacks had only strengthened his determination. No matter what, he was determined to save J and completely eradicate these monsters that had spread throughout the city.

Feng Zhiyong had absolute confidence in delivering a crushing blow to these monsters.

The overwhelming aura that Feng Zhiyong possessed at the moment mainly came from a group of awakened professionals under his command.

"Kill!"

Just then, four soldiers rushed out from in front of Feng Zhiyong. The skin of a young man instantly turned dark, and his hair became as rusty as iron.

He was an iron caster, able to transform his body into a solid block of steel.

"Break for me!" On the other side, a middle-aged man opened his mouth, and a white light flashed, like a cannonball, directly knocking several acid worms away.

He was a qigong master, able to concentrate energy in his mouth, and once unleashed, it had strong long-range destructive power.

"Whoosh!"

A piercing sound rang out, and a blur broke through the crowd, arriving in front of the monsters, and surprisingly, dozens of monsters couldn't even touch his sleeves.

He was a shadow assassin, with supernatural speed. If he continued to grow, his speed might even have the effect of teleportation.

"You disgusting bunch, go to hell!" The hot-tempered professional was a vine sorcerer. When using his powers, he would grow a tough vine from the ground, which even a common knife would take a long time to cut through.

Under Feng Zhiyong's command, these four professionals not only had no fear of the monsters in front of them, but they also unleashed their killer moves at the first opportunity! It was evident that their hearts were already filled with hatred for these creatures, without a trace of pity.

And that was the truth.

The disaster had struck so suddenly, and communication throughout the country had long been lost. It was certain that this disaster had far-reaching implications. Just the thought that their family members far away might have been killed by the monsters had filled the hearts of these professionals with anger.

After following Feng Zhiyong for a long time, these four had developed a good tacit understanding. The iron caster was the main defense, the qigong master was for long-range attacks, the vine sorcerer controlled the movement, and the shadow assassin, with the swiftest speed, was responsible for the offensive and killing.

Perfect.

These four were not randomly assembled but had been carefully and thoughtfully organized into the current lineup.

The qigong master stopped in his tracks, opened his mouth, and instantly revealed a glare. In an instant, it shattered the place where the monsters gathered. The shadow assassin followed up, with an unimaginable speed, like a streak of light, rushing forward with a fierce killing intent and a cruel sneer!

Like a lion using all its might to catch a rabbit.

This nearly indistinguishable speed, no matter who it was near, would be a nightmare-like presence.

Feng Zhiyong caught a whiff of a bloody smell. In these past few days, they had already faced too many monsters. From the initial panic to the current calm, this man in his late forties had finally adapted under the countless blood of soldiers and the endless remains of monsters.

These monsters were like a group of vultures that devoured carrion—cunning, ruthless, and relentless in their pursuits. For them, slaughter was their purpose of existence.

In these few days, he has experienced countless bloodshed. Even though he is a soldier, witnessing numerous people being devoured and slaughtered still fills him with an unbelievable sense of disbelief.

But he cannot afford to be afraid.

In the past, Feng Zhiyong may have needed to be cautious.

But now, he is not only surrounded by soldiers armed with ammunition, but also by four awakened professionals who display astonishing abilities with every move they make.

A real man takes action when necessary.

Over the past few decades, Feng Zhiyong has transformed from a naive teenager into a high-ranking military general, and each step of this journey can be described as extremely arduous.

He witnessed the rise of J City, growing into a major metropolis, and now these filthy, ugly creatures want to destroy it.

Do you think you are worthy?

Feng Zhiyong stands there, expressionless, but inside, a spiritual storm is brewing. He has never been one to passively accept circumstances. In his core, a flame of madness smoulders.

No matter what, even if it costs him his life, he will protect this city!

As a commander, how could he possibly feel intimidated by the number of monsters?!

"Attack!"

A cold snort suddenly erupts from Feng Zhiyong, full of momentum and fierce, like an iceberg capable of freezing one's soul, pressing down on all the monsters in the vicinity with a world-ending force!

Though he is just an ordinary person, in this moment, he stands like a mountain peak, causing even the monsters' bodies to tremble.

It's as if Feng Zhiyong has become the embodiment of the city's will. After being soaked in death and blood, this ancient city emits a resounding unwillingness and blaze of anger towards these intruders.
