Chapter 1280 A God's Body, A Mortal's Eye
You could hear a pin drop in the camp.
The crackling sound of the campfire was the only noise at that moment, and the sparks that flew up were like a silent exclamation in the dead silence.
All eyes were fixed on the man's back.
Dozens of scarlet beams, enough to melt through steel, shattered inch by inch on his back.
There was no loud noise, no impact, only specks of light dissipating and disappearing into the night like dust.
His ordinary black cloth clothes were completely unmarked, without even a single scorch mark.
What's this?
Murong Yan's mind went blank, and her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her throat.
The illusion of the death ray piercing her body had not yet dissipated when reality gave her an incomprehensible outcome.
Her hands trembled and uncontrollably touched Lin Zhen's back.
The fabric was warm to the touch, beneath which lay muscles as solid as mountains.
There were no wounds, no charring, nothing at all.
He was unharmed.
"Husband, you..." Her voice was dry, and the last syllable carried a sob that she herself did not realize.
Yue Fei, the God of War of the Great Qian Dynasty, was now gripping the hilt of his sword with a slight tremor in his hand, and his mouth was half-open, forgotten to close.
Only one thought echoed wildly in his mind: The prince... is a true god! Mortal weapons cannot harm the body of a god!
Elizabeth frantically made the sign of the cross on her chest, her face deathly pale, her lips moving as she repeatedly muttered the word: "Demon...Demon..."
Those nihilistic prisoners, bound to the ground, witnessed this miraculous scene, and the despair in their eyes completely transformed into the fear of their collapsing faith.
Their divinely bestowed weapons are powerless against this man!
How can such an unreasonable being exist in this world?!
"Using your toys to assassinate me?"
Lin Zhen slowly turned around, still holding the startled beauty in his arms.
His gaze didn't even linger on his own men, but instead pierced through the darkness to look directly in the direction where the attackers were hiding, a hint of extreme contempt playing on his lips.
"Who gave you the courage?"
The sound, though not loud, was like a thunderclap, clearly resounding in the hearts of everyone in the camp, and carrying a strange magic, penetrating the forest and drilling into the eardrums of every ambush attacker.
In the dark forest, all was silent.
The ambushers were clearly stunned by this scene that defied all reason and lost their ability to think.
"It's just a little trick." Lin Zhen lowered his head, looking at Murong Yan's pretty face in his arms, which was filled with lingering fear, and smiled to comfort her.
"An energy deflection shield, a trivial trinket."
Energy deflection shield?
Murong Yan and Elizabeth couldn't understand the term at all, but that didn't stop them from understanding one fact—this man possessed a "divine object" from another world that they had never heard of before.
Lin Zhen did not offer any further explanation.
He released Murong Yan and took the captured energy rifle from her hand.
He didn't even aim much; he just casually raised his hand.
"boom!"
A beam of blue light shot out, smashing a boulder not far away.
The soldiers in the camp let out another suppressed gasp.
"The power is acceptable, but the charging is too slow and the trajectory is unstable."
Lin Zhen curled her lip, her tone full of disdain: "A complete mess of a design."
As soon as he finished speaking, he made a move that made everyone's eyes almost pop out.
He actually started disassembling the energy rifle with his bare hands!
With a flick of his fingers, the futuristic gun was quickly disassembled, its casing, circuitry, and components tossed casually onto the ground as if discarding a pile of useless trash.
Less than ten breaths.
A futuristic weapon that everyone saw as unpredictable and mysterious was reduced to a pile of cold parts in his hands.
Finally, he picked out a chip the size of a fingernail and a tiny energy crystal from the pile of parts.
He weighed the chip between his fingers, then flicked it.
"call out--"
The chip transformed into a streak of light, almost invisible to the naked eye, and shot through the air, disappearing precisely into the distant dark forest.
next second.
"boom!"
A deep, muffled roar came from the depths of the forest!
A ball of orange-red fire shot into the sky, instantly illuminating the area and the figures of several ambushers dressed in silver-white combat uniforms who were preparing to move to a new position!
In the firelight, the energy rifles in their hands simultaneously emitted blinding sparks and crackled, then billowed black smoke and were completely destroyed!
"Your gun no longer belongs to you."
Lin Zhen looked at the ambush attackers who were panicking because their weapons had malfunctioned, his voice calm and without any emotion.
What he just ejected was the gun's enemy/friend identification and remote control core.
He used his overwhelming knowledge to instantly crack and seize access.
Now, all the energy weapons of the same type in this area have become bombs that he can detonate at will.
"come out."
Lin Zhen's voice transformed into a summons from hell.
"Are you going to come out on your own, or should I ask you to come out?"
The forest was deathly silent.
After a brief moment of panic, the exposed ambush attackers drew gleaming short blades from their waists and chose to fight like cornered beasts.
"I don't know how to praise."
Lin Zhen shook his head, a hint of impatience appearing on his face.
He stopped talking and simply raised his hand, snapping his fingers towards the dark forest.
"Snapped."
A crisp snap of fingers.
In the deathly stillness of the night, the voice was crystal clear, like an elegant yet chilling... death command.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of even more violent explosions suddenly erupted from all directions of the forest without warning!
Those ambushers who had just drawn their blades were blown into the sky by their own weapons before they could even let out a scream!
Amidst the towering flames, severed limbs and broken pieces flew everywhere.
The strong smell of blood and burning flesh instantly filled the entire camp.
As Murong Yan gazed at the bloody scene that seemed to magically obliterate powerful enemies with a mere laugh, her heart, which had just calmed down, began to pound wildly once more.
The fear had faded, leaving only endless worship and fascination.
She nestled in her husband's arms, the distant flames of the explosion illuminating her jet-black phoenix-adorned dress. The colossal phoenix embroidered with pure gold thread on the hem of the dress, its eyes gleaming in the flickering firelight, seemed to come alive, surveying the world purified by blood and fire alongside its master.
The five-zhang-long, dark gold trailing tail unfurled in the night wind, like a magnificent black curtain drawn down for this one-sided massacre.
"Alright, the flies are taken care of."
Lin Zhen clapped his hands, as if he had done something insignificant.
He turned his head and looked at Yue Fei, who was still in a daze.
"Yue Fei".
"Your humble servant... Your humble servant is here!" Yue Fei shuddered and bowed sharply.
"Take men and capture the rest of the survivors."
A cold smile curved at the corners of Lin Zhen's lips.
"Remember to be polite during interrogations."
"We are a land of etiquette."
