Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Explosion
Translator: 549690339
As veterans of the battlefield, the drivers halted the trucks immediately upon hearing Jack Clark’s stern warning. The two vehicles behind also quickly stopped.
Squeak, Squeak!!
Under the abrupt break, many students jolted forward due to inertia, thankfully no one fell out, after all, they were all cultivators of the Second Layer Heaven.
“What’s happening?”
“What’s going on?”
Swish, Swish, Swish!!
As the freshmen began to ask anxiously, Zac Lyons, Marcus Lee, and others didn’t hesitate to put on their helmets, grasped their weapons, and jumped down from the truck.
Jack Clark and Justin Welan also put on their helmets and leapt down.
Emmitt Wesley and Jerrold West, their figures flashing, appeared ghost-like on top of the truck. Their sharp eyes immediately scanned the small town ahead, as it was the most likely place for an ambush.
However, after a quick scan, the two men found nothing and exchanged puzzled glances with Jack Clark, “Student Clark, did you spot something?”
Jack Clark looked at the small town a hundred meters away, and slowly said: “There are people ambushed inside, but the number isn’t very large.”
He had just felt a few malicious gazes.
But what made him yell stop was not those eyes, but a strong sense of danger. It seemed that if they proceeded even a little further, they would die.
Thinking about this, Jack Clark looked ahead. The four-lane road that had once been bombed by an air raid had been filled up with hard soil. Although it wasn’t concrete, it was passable.
But now, Jack Clark observed carefully and found that some hard soil had been turned over.
Although the diggers had filled it back up, camouflaged it, and made it old and dry, the wheel tracks were slightly different from those of the previous trucks.
Justin Welan, bearing a heavy shield, perked up, “Jack, are they blood disciples?”
At this time, Marcus Lee and others also came over.
Jack Clark nodded slightly: “It might be the rebels. They’re over there— leaving it to you.”
Speaking, Jack Clark pointed towards the edge of the town, where a house had turned into a pile of bricks after being bombed.
“But be careful and don’t take the road ahead.”
Marcus Lee’s eyes lit up: “Brothers, there are Contribution Points coming through the door. Whoever catches them first is the one…”
“Charge!”
Before Marcus Lee finished speaking, Justin Welan’s aura burst forth. A subtle earthy glow covered half the heavy shield and with a rumble, he sprinted off.
“Damn, wait for us.”
The others were startled. A wild aura of the mid and late stages of Second Layer Heaven exploded from everyone and they quickly chased after him, as if delaying would mean missing a meal.
This scene left the freshmen behind, stunned.
Thanks to Jack Clark’s warning, Justin Welan and the others didn’t take the road. In the blink of an eye, they crossed dozens of meters, and charged towards the pile of bricks with wild aura.
“Damn! They’ve spotted us, retreat.”
Boom!
The brick heap exploded dramatically and amidst the flying debris, seven hidden figures rushed out, decisively sprinting towards the small town, trying to use the layout to escape.
These people’s auras spread between the First and Second Layer Heavens, and their movements were swift and decisive. They were obviously not those mad blood disciples.
Just then, one of the fleeing figures suddenly turned around. The man holding a single person launcher let out a howling rocket.
“Damn.” The White Veil leading the pack was taken aback and quickly dodged out of the way.
Boom! The piercing flames devoured a space of two yards. The shockwave from the explosion mixed with shrapnel flew everywhere, causing Marcus Lee and others to falter.
After all, they were still in the Second Layer Heaven and couldn’t summon True Power Protection, but…
“Hahaha…you still can’t outrun me.” Justin Welan, who was originally behind, carrying his heavy shield, ran straight through the shockwave and flames with a wild aura, laughing uproariously.
Just as this happened, a dozen black shadows flew precisely towards Justin Welan, scaring him into quickly plunging his heavy shield in front of him and hiding behind it.Boom! Boom! Boom!!
The explosion from more than ten grenades swallowed Justin Welan.
However, compared to the explosion of a rocket, the blast wave of a hand grenade was much smaller. Trailing behind, Mullen Weisz and the others let out cheerful laughter.
“Justin Welan, you can choke on dust behind us with that cumbersome thing.” Among the roaring laughter, nine figures swooshed through the flames, seemingly fearless of the explosive debris.
Especially a few agile folks, they quickly closed in and tossed a few dark shadows.
Boom! Boom! Boom!! An even more intense explosion erupted, which were clearly metal bombs they had exchanged anew – – their power several folds stronger than the ordinary grenades.
Blocked by the metal bombs, Marcus Lee and others who stormed into the small town quickly caught up with the rebels and engaged them in combat. Bang! Bang! Bang!! Gun noises and loud roarings from grenade explosions filled the small town, signifying an intense battle.
“Excuse me, gentlemen,” Jack Clark casually said, “Should we clear the explosives buried in those irregular wheel tracks ahead?”
“No problem.”
Both nod, and Jerrold West leapt high off the truck, soaring over ten meters into the air. His red True Strength danced around him like flames, emitting terrifying aura.
However, compared to Lori Parma and others, Jerrold West’s aura was weaker.
He soared into the air, aiming at four places identified by Jack and slapping them in the air. Four husky True Strengths instantly shot out and fell on the road twenty meters away.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!! An intense explosion erupted instantly, the flames shot over twenty meters into the sky, spreading over thirty meters.
The violent shockwave of the explosion vibrated the truck, raising rolling smoke and dust and splattering debris, making the students on the car turn pale instantly.
All were scared by the terrifying explosion. If Jack hadn’t shouted to stop, and they had driven straight through….
“Those lunatics… they must have buried hundreds of kilograms of explosives.”
Even Jack was somewhat horrified. If he hadn’t practiced the Mind’s Eye Bright Knife and advanced it to the more sensitive Third Layer….
Jerrold West landed back on the ground amidst the shock wave, looking somewhat apprehensive, “Student Clark, thank goodness for your sharp observations. Even if we could withstand most of the explosive impact, some of us would still get hurt.”
Jack Clark modestly said, “Oh, not at all. I just practiced a perception type of cultivation method, so I felt something was off as we approached the small town.”
“Actually, I didn’t know there were so many explosives buried at the beginning.”
“Perception type cultivation methods, huh.” Desire filled Jerrold West’s eyes.
Although their danger intuition honed in on a battlefield would react if they proceeded another ten meters or so, it wasn’t as advanced as Jack’s, who had sensed it way ahead of time.
Unfortunately, those methods related to perception were all about talent, and not everyone could master them and cultivate them to a grand accomplishment status.
Meanwhile, the fight in the small town quickly concluded. Marcus Lee emerged first, hammer in one hand, pulling a heavily injured rebel with the other.
Following him were the other classmates, their bodies emanating murderous auras.
Justin Welan came out last, cursing, “You guys are so heartless. 1 blocked so many grenades and bullets for you and yet, you didn’t even leave one for me.” Zac Lyons, with a weapon on his back, shrugged, “Can’t help it. It’s all about who is faster, who is slower, in such a situation. It’s not our fault that you’ve chosen the heavy shield as your weapon.”
“Haha, 1 just killed a Second Layer rebel. Scored three Contribution Points.”
“Damn it, I chose a First Layer Heaven one, it’s boring. Died in two strikes.” “Why are you guys rushing these things, not even leaving a live prisoner?
Luckily, Marcus Lee was smart enough to just shatter the lower half of that guy.”
“We’ll question him later on how he learned we were coming to pick up the freshmans and ambush here. Maybe we’ll dig up a big fish.”
“Bullshit, do we need to question that?” Mullen Weisz scornfully asked.
“Such a big airplane descending from the sky could be seen within tens of kilometers. And this path is a must-pass to return home. If 1 were them, I’d ambush here too.”
“Moreover, these rebels have lurked here once before. It’s easier to hide under the lamp, with actually a higher chance of success.”
“It’s a good thing that Jack Clark has sharp senses.”
“Damn, what you’re saying makes sense..”
