Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 599 Lin Qiang Surrenders
But just after the battle started, Lin Qiang felt despair, because this wasn't a battle, but a massacre. Even if there was only one war chariot on the other side, it still slaughtered his side until people were turned upside down.
And the firearms on their side couldn't penetrate the war chariot's armor at all. What made them even more desperate were those people on top of the war chariot, hiding behind armor plates and shooting at them.
They were clearly on the roof, with only an armor plate in front of them, but they couldn't hit the people on the vehicle no matter what. Even though the sniper had aimed at their exposed heads, the bullets still hit the armor plates in front of them after pulling the trigger.
Of course, Lin Qiang's child soldiers didn't know that in the war chariot's combat bunker, they could enjoy the war chariot's defense bonus. As long as the war chariot's defense wasn't exhausted, the people in the bunker wouldn't be hit at all.
The powerful war chariot wantonly rampaged through Lin Qiang's army, and Xiong and the others in the vehicle's weapon systems and combat bunkers also frantically reaped lives with the beam guns in their hands.
Under the beams of light emitted by the beam guns, the bulletproof vests of Lin Qiang's soldiers were no different from paper, but their bullets couldn't penetrate the war chariot's armor, and couldn't even leave a white spot on it.
This wasn't a confrontation between two equally matched forces at all, but a one-sided massacre, as if people from the Stone Age were facing a modern tank, making it impossible to see a glimmer of hope!
Soon, Lin Qiang's troops collapsed, even those child soldiers who had been trained by Lin Qiang since childhood. Although they didn't run away directly, they successively put down the weapons in their hands that couldn't cause any damage to the enemy, and stood there with blank expressions.
"Stop! We surrender, don't fight anymore!"
After seeing that only a little over a hundred of his men were left alive, Lin Qiang finally shouted loudly into the RV's loudspeaker:
"I know some secrets, as long as you let me go, I can tell you everything!"
When death was imminent, Lin Qiang finally felt fear, and the idea of dominating the Mo Shi (end of the world) had long been abandoned by him. He just wanted to live now.
Originally, Lin Qiang thought that he was not afraid of death, so he decided to take out his last trump card and fight Duan Lei of the mountain stronghold!
Back then, when he led those brothers on the streets, wasn't he always putting his head on the line? The scars on his body alone that were more than ten centimeters long numbered over a dozen, and the minor injuries were countless.
But Lin Qiang himself didn't expect that when he saw his team being destroyed in a devastating manner, and when that war chariot that seemed to be from hell got closer and closer, he actually felt extreme fear.
Lin Qiang didn't understand one thing. When he was hanging out on the streets, he should have been really unafraid of death, because at that time, he had nothing, just a worthless life. Not only did others not care, but he himself didn't care either.
But after living such a life of luxury and fine clothes for so many years, and getting used to being surrounded by people, the reckless Lin Qiang who dared to draw his knife over a verbal dispute had long disappeared.
The richer people are, the more afraid they are of death, because they have too much to lose, unlike him back then, when even if he died, all he would lose was his life...
Hearing Lin Qiang shout surrender, Li Chenzhou looked at the remaining hundred or so black-clothed warriors on Lin Qiang's side, told Xiao Lu to stop firing, and Duan Lei and the others also put down the guns in their hands.
At this time, on Lin Qiang's side, the Devourers wearing black clothes, as well as the soldiers who were later called over by Lin Qiang, had all been wiped out. Less than a hundred people were still alive, all of whom were Lin Qiang's child soldiers!
The child soldiers, who had long lost their will to fight, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Lin Qiang shout surrender. They didn't want to fight this kind of battle that could break people down any longer.
"Come out! I have something to ask you!"
Li Chenzhou sat on the war chariot's roof, looking at Lin Qiang in the RV.
In fact, at the beginning, Li Chenzhou didn't intend to be so troublesome. He was prepared to kill his way over directly, and then kill Lin Qiang along with the vehicle and everyone in it. As for the others, he would let them run if they wanted to, and he was too lazy to chase after them, after all, there were more important things to do.
But just as he drove out, Duan Lei suddenly remembered the previous battle, so he told Li Chenzhou that there were Devourers in Lin Qiang's team, and that these Devourers were fighting under Lin Qiang's orders.
This surprised Li Chenzhou greatly. Would Devourers obey Lin Qiang's orders?
So, during the battle, Li Chenzhou deliberately observed them. Although the Devourers and the child soldiers were all wearing black clothes, Li Chenzhou, who had dealt with Devourers quite a bit, could still distinguish them.
When he discovered that these Devourers were indeed helping Lin Qiang fight, just like Duan Lei had said, and even continued to fight to the death after discovering that their stun guns were ineffective against the war chariot, Li Chenzhou changed his mind.
With the firepower of the Tu Lu (massacre) war chariot, it was quite easy to destroy Lin Qiang's war chariot, but after discovering the Devourers, Li Chenzhou didn't touch the RV. Instead, he deliberately began to massacre Lin Qiang's subordinates, especially those Devourers.
"They fought until the very last one, and still didn't run away? Could these Devourers really have been subdued by Lin Qiang? Impossible!!!"
Under Li Chenzhou's deliberate sniping, the black-clothed Devourers were headshot one after another, but those Devourers still fought to the death, causing Li Chenzhou to frown.
Subsequently, Li Chenzhou turned his gaze to Lin Qiang's RV. If this situation occurred, Li Chenzhou could only guess that there was a high-level Devourer in the RV, because he was clear in his heart that Devourers could not be controlled by humans, unless Lin Qiang himself was a controller with extremely powerful mental strength.
Seeing the war chariot drive to the side of the RV, Lin Qiang took a deep breath, then opened the door and walked down, looking at Li Chenzhou with a complicated expression.
Even when he was beaten back by Li Chenzhou at the Special Task Force Armory, Lin Qiang didn't expect that this young man who was about the same age as his son could actually grow to such a degree in such a short period of time.
"Where's the Devourer in the vehicle? Let him come out too!"
Li Chenzhou didn't care about Lin Qiang. He just looked at Lin Qiang calmly and said.
"Dev... Devourer?"
Lin Qiang was stunned, then turned back to look at his RV, and then looked back at Li Chenzhou and said:
"Wh... what Devourer?"
Although the Devourers cooperated with Lin Qiang, they never said that they were Devourers, so Lin Qiang was also hearing the name Devourer for the first time.
"Hmm?"
Li Chenzhou was also stunned. Lin Qiang didn't know about the Devourers?
Judging from Lin Qiang's reaction, his doubts didn't seem fake, and besides, there was no need to lie at this time. After all, there was only this one RV. If there really was a Devourer hiding inside, it would be easy to find them.
However, despite believing that Lin Qiang wasn't lying, Li Chenzhou still jumped out of the vehicle and walked towards Lin Qiang's RV...
