The figures attacking were indeed a few mutants, or more accurately, Corruptors clad in battle armor.
Hence, they could break through the outermost flame wall, enduring the Salvation Army members' spray guns, capable of unleashing flames over a thousand degrees.
Lin Feng squinted his eyes; his reaction speed was actually faster than the others.
Almost at the same moment that Chen Shanshan voiced her warning, he sharply locked onto the enemy attacking from the flank.
However, unfortunately, the attacking Corruptors did not originate from the same direction.
They were very clever, clearly understanding that human firepower could only target one direction at a time, so they chose to attack from different directions simultaneously, significantly increasing their chances of success.
Fortunately, Chen Shanshan's perception superpower came into play.
Sensing the imminent danger in advance and voicing a warning, giving everyone half a second more to react.
Shen Yue raised a shield, protecting Lin Feng in front.
Beside her, Chen Shanshan held a Titanium Gun in one hand, and in the other, she drew the Demon-Extinguishing Holy Flame from her waist.
Two Salvation Army squad leaders behind them also raised their shields, fulfilling their duty to protect the firearm superpower Evolver in the center while their flamethrowers were ready to fire at any moment.
All these actions took place within a second.
Lin Feng, heavily guarded, glanced to his left and right.
On the left, a Tier Two Early Stage Corruptor was rushing in, donned in advanced battle armor covered with two to three-centimeter-thick alloy inserts, showcasing extremely high defense.
On the right, two Corruptors were charging; one at Tier Two Early Stage strength and the other at Tier Two Late Stage.
The stronger one wore full body armor, not ordinary battle armor but the power armor Bai Ye had previously mentioned, making it appear slimmer, yet its figure stood over two meters tall, and the armor made it formidable and swift.
As power armor, its defense was also the highest.
Their target was the side with the weakest formation defense, Chen Shanshan on Lin Feng's right.
In terms of threat level, it was imperative to aim the more powerful armor-piercing cannon at the right side.
While a single Corruptor on the left could be handled with just a rapid fire cannon.
Yet, this seemingly reasonable strategy was often the most unreasonable choice.
Lin Feng needed to thoroughly neutralize the threat, not just temporarily eliminate the danger.
Though both differ by just one word,
their meanings vary greatly.
The Corruptors must die.
Otherwise, merely driving them away would lead to facing the same threat in the next layer of cleansing.
Thus, Lin Feng decisively crossed his hands.
The armor-piercing cannon originally in his right hand targeted the sole threat from the left, ensuring one-shot kill!
While the rapid fire cannon in his left hand roughly targeted the right, aiming merely to drive them off, temporarily hindering their attack.
In fact, even without considering a thorough kill of the Corruptors, Lin Feng would make such a choice.
Because the right-side enemies attacked faster, within a mere blink of 0.1 seconds, they had leapt to twenty meters ahead from over forty meters behind the flame wall.
With two more blinks, they would reach right in front.
In such circumstances, if Lin Feng fired the armor-piercing cannon at the two Corruptors charging from the right, the explosion impact and shrapnel damage would surely affect Chen Shanshan, who was not holding a shield.
The latter was only wearing a set of Level 16 battle armor, with a defense level just around a hundred plus; though the damage of the armor-piercing cannon would reduce to sixty to seventy at ten meters, it could still cause some injury.
Especially damaging the hardened glass face mask of her Level 3 Helmet would severely impact Chen Shanshan's vision.
So, in that mere 0.1 second, Lin Feng made the most correct decision.
As his crossed fingers pulled the triggers, shells were fired towards their targets.
boom! boom! BOOM!
The violent explosions echoed across the sky, mostly from the armor-piercing cannon fired from his right hand towards the left.
Two armor-piercing cannons precisely hit the Tier Two Early Stage Corruptor from the right; the first shell breached its chest's alloy armor and caused severe secondary scattering damage to the mutated tissues within the chest cavity.
But this didn't mean that the Tier Two Early Stage Mutant perished in the explosion.
Being polluted and assimilated by mutated cells, unless it's torn to shreds or burned down, even if the entire chest is blown through, it will recover and come back to life after escaping.
The mutant's unparalleled proliferation and self-healing abilities allow it to launch attacks unscrupulously.
Of course, except for the higher Power of the Holy Spring or the curse power stemming from the Scorching Sun.
Because these energies are of a level higher than Tier Three Kings, they directly destroy the genetic information of mutated cells, causing their proliferation to fail.
Like an infection with a lethal virus, mutants would soon die from widespread body rotting and respiratory failure.
Therefore, Lin Feng directly pulled the trigger twice.
The two armor-piercing cannons, each with one hundred and sixty damage points, first broke through the Corruptor's tough chest armor, and the subsequent shell penetrated its badly damaged chest cavity, triggering the fuse explosion upon contact with the back armor's inner layer.
Only a dull thud was heard!
The entire head of the armor-piercing cannon exploded completely inside the Tier Two Early Stage Corruptor, releasing all its damage within the target.
A perfect strike!
As for the destructive effect post-explosion, it directly eliminated the Corruptor's chance of escape.
One could see a trace of fear and panic flash in its grayish degenerate pupils.
Next, the explosion in its chest caused its entire body to tear apart from the middle.
