Salton's understanding of his own body was very accurate. In fact, those who were skilled in fighting techniques all knew their own bodies very well. It included the muscles, bones, blood vessels, and even the cells in the blood. Those who had a higher level of ability also knew their own genetic information like the back of their hands. This was a problem that had different abilities. It was similar to how an Elemental Domain user would understand energy, or how they would perceive the user's mind.

At this moment, Salton could feel the pain of his right wrist breaking. He knew that the fourth man's sniper rifle was stuck in a broken bone, crushing his nerves and numbing one of his arms. However, right now, Salton did not have the time to deal with his injuries even if it was the simplest possible treatment.

He backed away quickly and shouted roughly, "Soldier, what are you waiting for? Gather the f * cking defensive formations. "

At Salton's shout, a dozen soldiers came forward. They were divided into two groups, each holding a tower shield. One group squatted down while the other used the two layers of tower shields to form a wall three meters high and ten meters wide. At the same time as the defensive formation was being assembled, Salton ordered the gunner to step forward, reached the barrel through the gap left by the shield wall, and fired at the edge of the square.

Under the intense and intense gunfire, countless sparks flew out from the edge of the square. The tight rain of bullets had almost no gaps in them, and the erected Shield Wall effectively defended against the enemy's sniping attacks. This was a simple yet effective method of attack, and it was also a battle technique commonly used by Parkland's soldiers. Generally speaking, such an approach has no major drawbacks other than lack of initiative and mobility. But tonight, its shortcomings had expanded infinitely.

The heavy rain of bullets continued for a minute before the soldiers stopped firing after they emptied their magazines. Since there was no sound coming from the attack just now, it was so strange that it seemed as if the mysterious intruder had already retreated. Salton felt the same way, but he was sure that the invaders had not retreated.

As expected, the soldiers' gunshots stopped. In the darkness at the edge of the field, there was a dull whistling sound, like the roar of a demon beast from ancient times. Salton suddenly felt an extreme sense of danger. At this moment, a dark green ball of light lit up in the darkness.

An energy ball flew across the ground, heading in the direction of Salton and the others. The energy ball was wrapped in a layer of dark green light, and in the middle was a ball of blazing white light. The energy bullet was so fast, it appeared right before his eyes in the blink of an eye.

"Dodge!" Salton roared, and at the same time he threw himself to the ground, intending to roll sideways away from the trajectory of the energy bomb.

Never before had Salton felt that the passage of time was so slow that he could divide a second into innumerable intervals. This was because his body couldn't keep up with the speed of his thoughts. However, the speed of the energy laser was clearly not on the same level as his. Even as his mind was racing, Salton could see that the energy beam was still closing in at an extremely fast speed.

It gently touched the lower shield wall. The tower shield made of fine steel was easily penetrated by the energy beam, and there was no explosion that Salton had imagined was intercepted by the tower shield. But this situation was even worse, and Salton saw it pass through the tower shield and emerge from the back of a soldier. At this time, the dark green membrane surrounding the energy bomb had already disappeared, leaving only a dazzling, unstable white light.

Salton instinctively stretched out his hand, trying to push away the dangerous glow. However, before he could even stretch out his hand, the ball of light had already reached his chest. As if he had touched the sun, Salton's battle suit silently dissolved and his flesh disintegrated. Even his bones were charred black under the high temperature. When the ball of light half entered Salton's body, he could clearly feel the little sun in his chest explode. After losing the green halo, the Blazing Paradise started to emit a terrifying torrent of energy.

It did not only inundate Salton, but it also encompassed nearly twenty soldiers on the left. The air burned and expanded in the heat, followed by a huge ball of light rising in front of the tulip building. When the light illuminated the glass on the sixteenth floor of the building, the sound of an explosion rang out. Even the glass windows, which had undergone a complicated process, had cracks formed from the shockwave from the explosion. It was a shocking sight to behold.

After the explosion, the intense light was replaced by raging flames. A thousand degrees of flame swept across the first floor of the building. The glass was melted and the concrete walls were crystallized. As for the lamps and other things, they exploded one by one. As the flames died out, the building was charred black and filled with the scent of death. The hot air rose, causing the air to distort. Thus, when a figure appeared at the edge of the square, it was distorted like a demon.

When old Brent saw the figure, his hand trembled involuntarily.

"Father, hurry and leave." While there's still time. "

He wasn't the only one in the old man's room. Sauron's father, Heine, his brother, Jester, and son, Johansson, were present, with the exception of old Brant. The only difference was that Heine looked concerned, and Jester trembled. His son Johansson, on the other hand, seemed calmer. The shy boy was comforting his father, who was about to be overwhelmed by fear.

Although he did not know the identity of the intruders, it was obvious that the intruder wanted to attack the Tulip House directly, as he was after old Brent. Old Brent might be old, and there wasn't much to miss, but that didn't mean he liked death, especially this senseless way of dying.

With the support of Hein, eight fully armed soldiers began to make their way out of the room. Jester urged his son, Johansson, to follow behind them. They were about to leave the room. The elevator in the Tulip Building had long since stopped working, and the intruders had to use their legs to get to the sixteenth floor through a secure passage. No matter how fast he ran, the sixteen flights of stairs were enough for him to run for a while. Old Brent and the others could leave through another secret elevator. He had considered the situation when he had first set up the building, and had made all the necessary arrangements for it.

However, old Brent ignored another possibility. What if the other party didn't go up the stairs, but directly from the outside wall of the building? Just as one of the guards' fingers touched the doorknob, the bedroom window suddenly shattered, followed by the sound of gunfire.

Eight shots were fired, and the eight guards didn't even have a chance to retaliate before they were shot in the head. Their corpses collapsed to the ground one after another. The sudden death caused the remaining four people to be inexplicably shocked, and they were unable to say anything for a while.

The intruder landed lightly on the red carpet, a strange weapon in his hand. The weapon could not fire deadly bullets, but it could fire five hundred meters of safety rope. At the end of the rope was an absorber that could use any solid substance as a support point to pull the gunner into position through another function inside the weapon.

With this special gun, the intruders could come up from the outside of the building at a speed even faster than the elevator. What was truly fatal was the automatic pistol in his other hand. The muzzle was lowered at this moment, but no one knew when it would be raised.

At this point, old Brent calmed down. He had experienced many trials and hardships in his life, so the current situation was not enough to frighten him. Hei Lin, who was supporting him, also displayed an extraordinary courage. Although his face was pale, his upright body did not waver in the slightest.

On the other hand, Jest, old Brent, this good-for-nothing son of his, collapsed on the ground, almost fainting from fright.

Old Brent looked at the intruder. He was wearing a tight combat suit with black tattered hair and a pair of strange eyes that were black in color and gold in color. Old Brent was startled as he saw the pair of eyes: "It's you. Zero?"

Just like how old Brent did not expect someone to blatantly invade his family's territory, he also did not expect Zero to be one of the invaders. The man who had shaken the foundation of the Parkland family was now like a real nightmare before old Brent's eyes!

"I want to duel you!"

Suddenly, young Johansson was between Zero and old Brent. The young man opened his arms to block the old Brent, and his eyes were filled with a complicated light. There was fear, there was hesitation, there was contradiction, and there was even a little bit of courage.

If it had been another time and place, Zero might have appreciated this youth. But right now, he didn't have the time to chat with people he didn't care about. The automatic pistol was raised and Johansson was shot in the left leg. However, to his surprise, the young man clenched his teeth as much as he could to prevent himself from shouting out.

However, that was all. Johansson did not make Zero pay any attention to him. Pointing his gun at Brent, he said lightly, "Hello, Patriarch of the Parkland family. I think we need to sit down and have a good chat."

The battle ended at dawn.

This was an uneven fight. All four of them were at least at the fifth step of cultivation, and they were at the level of an advanced vocation. There was a qualitative difference between them and the ones at the lower levels of the wilderness. Although there were many soldiers in Parkland, and there were also 12 low-level espers, in front of the four of them all, they were extremely weak. By the time the battle ended, Parkland's soldiers had already been reduced by almost 70%, and those with the ability had been completely wiped out, leaving only half of the functional buildings to stop working. Without a doubt, this was a huge loss to the Parkland family, and their damaged vitality could not be recovered in a short period of time.

This is the result of zero expectation, with overwhelming advantage to give the big chauffeur a heavy blow. Apart from weakening their strength, the most important thing was to shock them. The reason why he wanted to shock the Parkland family was naturally to get more benefits for himself at the negotiating table. After all, the starting point of zero was to take revenge on what Parkland had done to him, but more than that, it was to get compensation from this chaesman, not to be annihilated.

It would not be difficult to completely destroy the family, but it would not benefit them in any way. He would also attract the interference of the Dark Council because he had overdone it. In any case, the Parkland family was still in the Dark Council's support array. Although this family had started to decline but for the Dark Council, it was not allowed to just watch outsiders wipe out their subordinate companies!
