Chapter 266: Volume 4, - 38, Opportunity
As the political center of Gazalin, the situation in the capital, Tanville, had descended into unimaginable chaos. Soldiers in Army Defense Team uniforms and field uniforms were firing at each other everywhere. The city was paralyzed, and on the crisscrossing roads, people ran in panic, desperately trying to escape the city.
The systems of transportation, communication, and law enforcement had completely collapsed. The police, having changed into civilian clothes, left their posts, with no one willing to engage in this coup d’état. Meanwhile, the street vandals were burning cars, smashing gun shops, and raping women. Everyone lost their restraints, and horrific tragedies were happening on all the streets and corners of the city.
Buildings were set on fire, and flying cars overturned on the streets, some due to chaotic traffic accidents, but the majority displayed the energy and power of the mob. Gunfire echoed throughout the city, with explosions lighting up the night sky. On the snow-laden roadside of the cold winter, innocent pedestrians lost their lives, their bodies stiffened in the severe cold.
No one knew where they came from, where they intended to go, or their names because no one cared.
Panic-stricken people passed by them, fleeing for their lives. Soldiers passed by them, shooting at each other. Vandals passed by them, continuing to create tragedies with reckless laughter.
And they could only lie there silently, waiting for the end of this tragedy.
"Boom!" A mechanical leg of a Mecha stepped on a corpse by the roadside, the immense weight turning the body into a bloody mess mixed in with the snow.
This Empire-designed [Three-headed Dog] medium-sized Mecha was desperately firing. Its energy cannon barrel spun and sprayed, the scarred Mecha body trembling violently under the intense shooting. The dark red energy shield on the night street was as striking and vivid as the blood under its feet.
"Boom" An energy bullet landed beside the Mecha, blasting a large hole in the ground. Shrapnel scattered, clinking against the Mecha’s external armor, creating a rain-like dense sound. The [Three-headed Dog] just executed an evasive maneuver as two more sudden energy shells hit it, erupting with a huge explosion.
The [Three-headed Dog], directly hit, couldn’t withstand the massive shockwave. Its body retreated uncontrollably, and the energy shield could no longer hold, dimming helplessly after flickering twice, revealing its black, scarred external armor.
The misfortune did not end there. Just as the [Three-headed Dog] regained its balance, a missile skimmed the ground, drawing a winding flight path and violently crashing into the Mecha’s chest.
