On the other side, the Bio-Soldiers had reached the feet of the giant zombie. Despite their terrifying appearance, they appeared like ants before the colossal zombie.
The heavy weapons in the Bio-Soldiers’ hands struck the giant zombie with great force. However, they couldn’t penetrate the zombie’s outer fat layer. Even when they managed to pierce the surface, it wasn’t a fatal wound.
Boom, boom, boom!
At this moment, over a dozen Bio-Soldiers fired the rocket launchers on their backs. The rockets soared towards the giant zombie’s head. The powerful explosions finally inflicted substantial damage on the giant zombie.
With a roar, the giant zombie swung the electric pole in its hand.
Boom, boom, boom!
Several Bio-Soldiers who failed to dodge in time were sent flying and crashed heavily into abandoned buildings. However, their goal was to hold back the giant zombie, not to kill it. So, even if there were casualties, they achieved their objective.
Meanwhile, since conventional firearms were ineffective against Xiao Feng, Zhang Guotao planned to send his evolved soldiers inside to deal with him personally. Based on the data, he had a general idea of Xiao Feng’s abilities. Zhang Guotao believed that Xiao Feng’s Barrett sniper rifle was just a basic skill, not his evolutionary ability.
He suspected that Xiao Feng’s evolutionary ability allowed him to create invisible barriers to defend against external attacks. From the records of his previous encounter with Zhang Jie, it was clear that Xiao Feng possessed formidable close combat capabilities. Zhang Guotao had reviewed this information before coming here.
When Xiao Feng had punched, he had instantly killed Zhang Jie, who had the power to turn things into steel.
Therefore, to sum it up, Xiao Feng is an evolved individual with outstanding abilities in both close combat and ranged attacks, as well as strong defensive capabilities. He is not easy to deal with.
For someone as experienced in battle as Zhang Guotao, a single person’s combat capabilities, no matter how strong, could be dealt with using a simple strategy: overpowering them with force. Whether in group battles or any other situation, there was nothing that couldn’t be resolved through superior firepower.
"Send Li Yan in!" Zhang Guotao calmly commanded.
Inside the armored vehicle behind Zhang Guotao, there were four individuals dressed uniquely—three men and one woman. These four people were different from the regular soldiers outside. They were not in standard combat uniforms. Instead, some wore sportswear, others trendy hoodies, and some wore smart suits. They looked nothing like warriors on a battlefield.
At that moment, the door of the armored vehicle was knocked on.
The door was promptly opened, and a soldier with a stern expression reported, "Sir, Director Zhang is calling for Mr. Li Yan. Please proceed."
"Am I finally going to make a move?" A young man with red-dyed hair and a red hoodie casually stepped out. His bright red hair stood out under the sun. He had metal pendants hanging from his neck and wrists.
"Director," as he approached Zhang Guotao, the young man made a more respectful gesture.
"Li Yan, I need you to go in for a bit. That young man inside is a bit troublesome. He’s taken down quite a few of our soldiers. Be careful," Zhang Guotao said seriously to the young man.
"Director, can you tell what kind of strength the other side possesses?" Li Yan looked towards the restaurant, scanning his gaze over Xiao Feng.
At that moment, Xiao Feng paid no attention to Zhang Guotao and the others. He was fully focused on watching the giant zombie in the distance.
"His exact strength is unclear, but he should have at least reached the level of a third-stage evolved individual," Zhang Guotao replied.
"Third stage? That makes it easy!" Li Yan said confidently before heading towards the restaurant.
Li Yan was also a third-stage evolved individual, and he had a unique elemental ability. He was a fire-element evolved individual, known for having the most potent offensive abilities among the elemental types. Among third-stage evolved individuals, few could match Li Yan’s combat capabilities.
Xiao Feng noticed Li Yan entering the restaurant and immediately greeted him, saying, "Welcome!"
"Are you the one sent by the person outside to negotiate?"
Li Yan, after stepping inside, cast a casual glance at Xiao Feng and then looked around the interior of the restaurant, admiring the decor.
"It’s incredible. The interior of this restaurant is relatively upscale, even during peacetime," Li Yan marveled, but his expression shifted to one of disappointment. "It’s just a shame that this place is about to turn into a ruin."
At that moment, Li Yan turned his gaze towards Annie. "Wow! Such an adorable little girl! Come over here and let your big brother hug you!"
Li Yan went through this entire process while completely ignoring Xiao Feng.
Simultaneously, flames erupted fiercely from Li Yan’s body.
Strangely, the flames on his body did not ignite his clothing.
"Fire Man? That’s a nice ability!"
Xiao Feng made a hissing sound as he commented.
The next moment, Li Yan threw a punch at Xiao Feng.
With a blazing hot fist, Li Yan’s punch radiated intense heat.
However, the next moment, Xiao Feng reached out and grabbed Li Yan’s fist, slowly exerting force.
The flames burned on Xiao Feng’s hand.
Yet they caused no harm to Xiao Feng at all.
Li Yan widened his eyes in shock.
But at the same time, a tremendous force emanated from the fist.
Li Yan was taken aback, and with his left hand, he gathered flames and threw them fiercely at Xiao Feng.
The flames struck Xiao Feng but quickly dissipated, not even singeing a single strand of his hair.
"Ahh!"
As Xiao Feng grabbed Li Yan’s right fist, a series of bone-cracking sounds echoed.
Li Yan cried out in pain, dropping to his knees as Xiao Feng exerted increasing pressure.
At this moment, outside the restaurant,
Li Yan’s agonized screams echoed from within.
Bang!
The door of the armored vehicle was pushed open.
The two men and one woman inside promptly stepped out.
"Commander!"
The three of them stood behind Zhang Guotao, their faces filled with seriousness as they looked at the restaurant.
