#279 - Chapter 279 Assault

The machine dog's infrared thermal imaging capabilities were incredibly powerful, easily penetrating the thin wooden door, providing a clear view of the situation inside the house. The screen showed the person inside was resting quietly in bed, with all vital signs and body temperature normal.

A second after locking on, the machine dog's machine gun suddenly opened fire, bullets raining down on Xu Tian, who was lying in bed.

Xu Tian, who was resting with his eyes closed, was instantly jolted awake by the sound of gunfire. As a Viscera Training martial artist, his alertness and survival instincts exploded.

Without hesitation, he slammed a palm on the bed, using the force of the impact to leap into the air. Faced with the sudden attack, Xu Tian displayed his superb skills and reaction speed.

The machine dog outside displayed amazing intelligence and predictive capabilities. It was not only equipped with advanced infrared thermal imaging technology to track targets, but more importantly, it could also make highly intelligent predictions about the target's actions.

This predictive ability allowed it to analyze Xu Tian's movements in a very short time and make corresponding adjustments based on this information.

Even if Xu Tian's movements were fast, he could not escape the pursuit of the machine gun bullets. Because the initial velocity of the bullets was very high, usually between 800-1000 meters per second. When Xu Tian leaped into the air, the machine dog reacted quickly, adjusting the firing angle to ensure the bullets could accurately hit the target.

Because Cheng Feng was afraid that the power of the bullets would shatter the "Silken Thread Art" manual, he ordered the machine dog to aim for the lower body, at least to make the opponent lose the ability to escape.

As Xu Tian's figure drew a sharp arc in the air, he cursed the sudden change of events in his heart, while also feeling unprecedented fear towards the sudden sneak attack.

Those who can be found at this time are either backed by powerful figures or have extraordinary means, and none can be underestimated.

Xu Tian cursed inwardly, "Could it be that those families are involved? Otherwise, there shouldn't be such a quick reaction!"

In the next second after leaping into the air, his eyes were like torches, quickly scanning his surroundings, looking for any possible escape routes or opportunities to counterattack.

But what Xu Tian didn't expect was that even in the air, a sharp pain came from his lower body and legs: "Damn it, again?"

Just as the bullets were about to touch his body at the critical moment, the blood energy in Xu Tian's body surged. That was the deep blood energy he had accumulated through years of hard work.

He suddenly took a deep breath, and the muscles of his whole body seemed to be tightened by an invisible hand, forcibly making an incredible twist in the air. The bullet roared past the edge of his body, sparking bursts of fire.

Upon landing, Xu Tian pounced towards the window like a cheetah, trying to use the advantage of speed to get rid of this deadly pursuit. However, the machine dog did not give him a chance to breathe, and the machine gun roared again, and the dense net of fire instantly blocked his way forward.

Feeling the severe pain in his leg, Xu Tian's heart trembled. Could it be that even Viscera Training martial artists could not escape this unknown means of attack?

"Humph, you mere rat, you want to trap me, Xu Tian?" He snorted coldly, his blood energy boiling, and his hands quickly formed a hand seal. A stream of dark red energy gushed out from his palms, turning into tiny streams of air, weaving a dense protective net in the air.

"Qi Shield Protects!" As Xu Tian whispered, those air currents instantly solidified, forming a semi-transparent energy shield, blocking the bullets that were about to penetrate his body one by one in front of him. Although this was not a long-term solution, it at least bought him a precious few seconds.

Taking advantage of this brief gap, Xu Tian quickly looked around, his eyes locking onto a roof beam in the corner of the room. He slammed his foot on the ground, using the force to rush towards the beam.

At the same time, he slapped several palms on the door in succession. Under the infusion of blood energy, the room door exploded open, revealing the hideous metal monster outside.

"What the hell is this? Why is it chasing me??" Even Xu Tian couldn't help but blurt out.

The machine dog's dark red single eye and cold, all-metal body with spikes were simply too distinctive in the darkness.

And the machine dog would not let go of Xu Tian's chance to be stunned. The muzzle on its back was slightly raised, directly aiming at Xu Tian's lower body.

The familiar stinging sensation struck, Xu Tian's face was ferocious like a ghost, and he said fiercely: "If we're going to die, let's die together."

The blood energy all over his body exploded, and Xu Tian also used his trump card, and the wound on his leg seemed to have been torn open by a devil.

Xu Tian could even feel that a piece of his thigh, two fingers wide, was already gone. This terrifying hidden weapon forced Xu Tian to face the machine dog head-on. In his injured state, he was definitely no match for that kind of rapid hidden weapon.

Xu Tian was like a wounded beast, maintaining a calm judgment in the pain. He knew that he had no way to retreat, and only by confronting this cold machine dog head-on could he have a chance of survival.

The severe pain from his leg continued to stimulate his nerves, but it also stimulated a deeper level of potential in his body.

"Come on, let me see what you, this tin monster, are capable of!" Xu Tian roared, his figure approaching like a ghost, each step accompanied by a slight tremor of the ground, which was a manifestation of the boiling blood energy in his body and the condensation of power to the extreme.

Seeing this, the machine dog's single eye flashed red, as if it was also assessing the degree of threat from Xu Tian. It did not choose to confront head-on, but continued to use its flexible mobility to retreat behind Cheng Feng, wandering behind Cheng Feng, looking for the best support position.

Cheng Feng stood aside, facing the difficulties, with a solemn expression, solemnly drawing his knife, ready to respond to any possible changes.

Seeing that this metal monster has an owner, Xu Tian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "No matter who you are, you better not meddle in other people's business, otherwise I, Hong... I will definitely not spare you."

"Hand over the 'Silken Thread Art', otherwise, even if you are a Viscera Training martial artist, you will not escape death today!" Cheng Feng's voice seemed particularly cold in the night, he knew the gap between himself and Xu Tian, but the power brought by the Super Serum gave him unprecedented confidence.

Cheng Feng's pure strength in the late Bone Refinement stage has reached about 11,500 pounds without the blessing of energy.

According to Cheng Feng's estimation, Lin Dong, who was killed before, had a strength of only 6,000 pounds. The foundation of the Super Serum plus the breakthrough of martial arts brought him great gains.

With the lessons learned from the past, Cheng Feng also had his own confidence in facing Viscera Training martial artists. Wei Zhuang warned Cheng Feng to be careful of the penetrating energy of Viscera Training martial artists.

Cheng Feng naturally also waited solemnly, only by trying can he know his level, hoping to fight beyond his level!

In the martial arts world, it is not a good thing to always rely on external things, and the most useful and strongest machine dog does not have the strength to completely suppress Viscera Training.

If the Viscera Training martial artist is in a more complex environment, close combat may really tear the machine dog apart.

This made Cheng Feng see the upper limit of the machine dog. The weapons used to suppress the county town are no longer suitable for the prefecture city.
