65 The Battle 2 (1/2)

Long Yu just silently smiled. The little lass did not disappoint him.

Due to the limited amount of missiles that could be equipped on the Black Shark at a time, another tactic was required to keep the vampire plant busy.

Luckily, the vehicle's weapons system included a grenade launcher that could shoot from hundreds of meters away. Although its explosion is smaller scaled compared to an anti-tank missile, it was still enough to pose a threat to the mutated plant.

With the grenade launcher doing its job under Xixi's control, Long Yu felt the pressure on him reduced again.

He once again pushed forward towards the third mark while swiftly weaving left and right.

Although the exposed roots of the plant caused some obstruction in his path, it also served as platforms for him to decrease the air time between his jumps, which in turn lowered the chances of him being hit by an attack.

*Boom*

When the fifth explosion reverberated in his ears, Long Yu took advantage of a gap between the plant's vines, arming another space splitter mine on the third mark.

'Just one more to go!' he silently thought as he twisted his body to avoid an attack by inches.

Thanks to the constant explosive damages done to the plant, the number of blood red vines chasing him slowly subsided, allowing him to dodge the following attacks more easily. A lot of them were burned and even blown to pieces.

Although victory was within sight, Long Yu dared not relax. He somehow felt that something was amiss but he couldn't put his finger on it.

Before the grenade launcher's ammunition was spent, Long Yu finally arrived at the fourth mark. He easily attached the mine and was about the arm it when a great sense of danger crawled up his spine.

A giant shadow suddenly loomed over him, causing his vision to darken.

'Are you kidding me!?' Long Yu cursed when he saw the thing that arrived by his side.

It was a ginormous branch that was more than ten times wider than a red vine! From his perspective, it was almost as if a wall was being swept his way.

Long Yu turned to the opposite direction and leapt forward with all his might. The gleaming lines on the nano-machine exoskeleton armor glowed brightly as it was pushed to maximum power.

'Sh*t, its too fast!'

The speed of the vampire plant's branch was many times faster than a normal red vine, not to mention its size. Long Yu could tell that he would not be able to dodge it.

Although another grenade had been launched at the plant right at this moment, it was blocked by the remaining vines. Therefore, there was no way to disrupt the attack of the branch.

Long Yu hastily turned around in mid air towards the branch and crossed his arms in front of him.

He could not outrun or dodge this attack, so he could only rely on the exoskeleton armour to absorb the force of the impact.

*Bam*

Without surprise, Long Yu was sent flying by the attack.

Although the armour successfully blocked it and absorbed most of the impact, the remaining momentum thrusted upon his body in mid air could not be stopped.

During his flight, Long Yu struggled to control his body. He eventually managed to rotate and tilt his body before he abruptly smashed into the concrete ground.
