Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!

Chapter 141: Surrender (Fourth Update)



On Fengpo Mountain.

Miao Lun grew increasingly excited as he fought, and after running out of the ammunition he carried, he picked up a 12.7mm heavy machine gun and used it as a rifle.

Whenever he encountered any obstruction, a spray of bullets was usually enough to clear it.

The enemy's resistance, however, was very weak; their feeble rifle bullets were simply deflected by the heavy armor, and since they were also running at high speeds, the enemy struggled to aim, lacking heavy firepower restrictions. The forest became a playground for Super Soldiers like Miao Lun, where he left blood flowing in rivers.

A hundred meters away, Nadaya lay on the ground, trembling all over, watching the unstoppable, crazed killing by the steel monster in front, her eyes filled with uncontrollable fear, muttering incessantly, "Demon, this is a demon from Hell, oh God! Why have you unleashed this demon back to earth..."

At this moment, Nadaya no longer had the spirited vigor of seeking revenge she had before, only endless fear and chill.

"Get ahold of yourself, Nadaya, now's not the time to pray, run!"

Blais felt a similar terror in his heart, facing an enemy that couldn't be killed, combined with the continued lack of air support, everyone's morale was on the brink.

"My leg, my leg is twisted, I can't get up."

"Fuck, I must have owed you in a past life."

Blais looked at his best buddy, gritted his teeth, ran over, and carried Nadaya on his back, not looking back as he sprinted down the mountain.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of bullets swept past as the Super Soldiers pursued relentlessly. Bullets whizzed everywhere; some of the soldiers from Beautiful Country had their heads blown open, others were ripped in half, and some had their organs splattered on the tree branches.

"Run, run, run."

Carrying Nadaya, Blais's adrenaline surged, propelling him to run faster than he ever had before, simply running headlong without daring to look back, not daring to see what was happening behind him.

Because he feared that one glance would strip him of even the courage to flee.

Running along, he suddenly spotted a gentle slope up ahead and some boulders that could serve as cover. Blais hurried over and only then did he feel a searing pain in his chest.

"No more gunfire, Nadaya, do you think we are safe now..."

Blair gasped for air, but there was no response from behind.

Suddenly, Blais felt his back growing wet; he subconsciously loosened his grip and turned around, only to see Nadaya's head had already been blown off, and he had been running with a headless corpse, its blood soaking his back.

Before Blais could grieve, a shadow suddenly loomed over him.

Looking up, Blais saw a tall figure standing before him.

The steel-encrusted heavy armor was splattered with blood and flesh; those eyes, cold and merciless, exuded a bone-chilling coldness, making one feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave at a mere glance.

Blais's mouth opened wide, his fear nearly paralyzing him, robbing him of all ability to speak or act.

Miao Lun raised his machine gun and aimed at Blais, about to pull the trigger, when suddenly a new order came through his headset.

"Tch, your lucky day, surrender and you won't be killed."

Miao Lun sneered, speaking in broken English. Because of military requirements, every Jieke Security Soldier knew a few simple phrases like surrender, lay down your arms, and prisoners.

"I surrender, I've surrendered."

Blais finally snapped back to reality, hastily dropping all the ammunition he carried. Faced with such a non-human steel monster, he no longer had the courage to fight back. Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire

The entire Fengpo Mountain battlefield could be described as a military collapse, like a mountain toppling over. Even if one wanted to flee, how could infantry without vehicles outrun Super Soldiers in the mountains and forests?

Finally, there were massive groups of soldiers surrendering and being captured, including those from the Beautiful Country.

They too were human, they too felt fear, and faced with the brutal slaughter of the battlefield, they were only a bit more resilient than the warlord soldiers.

When the combat aircraft from the Amphibious Assault Ship hurried to Fengpo Mountain, the war had already ended, and all prisoners were being escorted away in batches.

..............

Yang City!

David sat dried-up in a chair, staring at the battle report on the table, hardly believing his eyes for a long time.

"Defeat at Fengpo Mountain, destruction of Feike Airport, the artillery corps' station attacked, Jie Xun City military camp bombarded..."

Looking at the string of losses and casualty figures on the battle report, David felt dizzy and stuffy in the chest, almost unable to breathe.

"The enemy had planned this in advance. Today, they launched surprise attacks on various locations. They definitely must have some sort of advanced tunneling machine; all these attacks were carried out through underground tunnels, and we were basically unable to defend."

When Moritz saw these battle reports, he too could hardly believe it.

The enemy had actually deployed various kinds of long-range firepower directly through this means, and because the distance was too close, even if radar detected it, interception would be too late.

However, Moritz never would have expected that the advanced tunneling machine he mentioned did not exist, just a giant centipede diligently digging underground, only this centipede was far bigger than he imagined.

"Has the loss been accounted for?"

David knew he had completely messed this up, no one would allow a general who kept losing battles to stay on the front lines.

Now he could only hope that the losses were smaller, enough to keep his military position.

"The losses are still being tallied, but for now, we have accounted for more than two thousand eight hundred deaths, and over four thousand have been captured by Jieke Security."

The staff officer spoke with a heavy tone, giving David a number that made his eyelids twitch.

"More than four thousand surrendered, are you sure?"

David's mouth gaped open, the number truly impactful.

The staff officer nodded, confirming, "The data won't be too off, especially from Fengpo Mountain, where our troops were blocked front and back, lacking heavy fire support and air cover, leading to a large number of soldiers choosing to surrender after several hours of fierce fighting. This number was published by the Jieke Group, which is very close to our estimate, and highly reliable."

"How did this happen, how could we have lost?"

David murmured to himself, even though they possessed fleets, air superiority, and overwhelming firepower, they still lost.

For a moment, David found the reality quite surreal; with such significant advantages they still lost, he supposed that when this news spread, the whole world would probably laugh at him as the commander.

"General, the President's call."

Just then, even more distressing news arrived.

David stiffly took the phone, and before he could explain, he was thoroughly berated by a few higher-ups on the other end of the call.

Naval warfare could still be attributed to the emergence of new enemy weapons, but on land, losing despite having a massive advantage was unforgivable.

Finally, hanging up the phone, David was entirely drained, devoid of any spirit, simply uttering bitterly, "Send the orders, cease fire and withdraw the troops."
