While Li Nan and the others were creating noise with drums, gongs, and loudspeakers, a thunderous sound suddenly erupted behind them, followed by the ground shaking violently!
Fatty reacted immediately, dropping his drumsticks and shouting, "Run! Someone is shelling the camp!"
Having lived in the military for several years, Fatty was very familiar with firearms and artillery. Without looking back, he knew that the sound was definitely from a mortar or similar artillery shell, which had immense power.
At that moment, Li Nan turned around abruptly and saw that the two large iron gates at the front of the camp had been blown to smithereens. After the explosion's echo faded, a rumbling sound of tracks could be heard!
"What is happening?" Li Nan shouted, while Fatty shook his head and yelled, "Don't worry about that! It must be an Army Tank! Those things weigh forty to fifty tons, carry over thirty shells, and can strike precisely. If someone is specifically targeting the camp, then this place is likely doomed!"
Li Nan's mind raced. "It is..."
Fatty nodded. "Who else could it be?"
Li Nan cursed inwardly; he never expected that he would leave such a huge disaster for the camp!
He gestured with his hand and shouted, "Scatter! Quickly scatter!"
As he spoke, a rugged-looking domestic Army Tank slowly drove through the camp's gates, crushing the damaged iron doors into pieces under its treads.
Li Nan inhaled sharply, his eyes fixed on the approaching tank. Although surprised, his expression remained resolute.
The dozen or so brothers around him had already dispersed, raising their Submachine Guns as if they had no good intentions toward the tank.
There was no way that someone who was battering down gates would have good intentions. It was clear now that the people inside the tank were the instigators of this disaster for the camp!
The gray-green Army Tank stopped at the entrance of the camp. At that moment, Fatty shouted urgently, "Not good! Nan Ge, run!"
In an instant, the tank's cannon turned left and right before finally settling on Li Nan's position. Then came a mechanical sound as if a shell was being loaded into the chamber!
Li Nan stood firm in front of the Small Buildings, unmoved.
At this moment, with a wolf in front and a tiger behind, faced with the sudden intrusion of a tank, the method to deal with the noise of the Long-Haired Rabbit had been suspended. This meant that the Long-Haired Rabbit was about to emerge, and could Li Nan and the group of men in the camp handle both the Long-Haired Rabbit and an Army Tank?
Li Nan had a huge question in his mind, and in an instant, he shouted to Fatty, "If things go wrong, lead the brothers to protect the civilians and leave immediately!"
Just as Li Nan was taking on a righteous stance, the Army Tank parked at the gate immediately loaded its cannon, then the barrel recoiled, directly firing a shell the size of a large carrot!
Seeing this scene, Li Nan felt a chill run down his spine. How could a human body withstand a shell? If they were caught in this blast, there would be nothing left; even if wounds healed later, he probably wouldn't survive.
At that moment, Fatty suddenly lunged towards Li Nan and shouted, "Run quickly! What are you waiting for?"
As Fatty leaped out, a figure suddenly darted out from within the Small Buildings. It had a tuft of white fur, resembling a white-haired girl, but unfortunately, its owner was not as graceful as one.
The one that burst out was indeed the Long-Haired Rabbit. Hearing that the noise outside had stopped, it pulled its head from under the bed and began to look around with its eyes darting back and forth, seemingly pondering what had happened outside.
No matter how intelligent animals may be, they can never reach human levels of understanding. With its limited brain capacity, the Long-Haired Rabbit couldn't figure things out. However, one thing it remembered clearly was that it wanted to kill everyone outside and bite off their heads; its thirst for revenge had ignited!
In the room with the large bed, the Long-Haired Rabbit glanced through the shattered window and saw Li Nan standing outside. Without thinking further, it shook its body and leaped out; it was determined to kill that person and feast on his flesh!
Fatty jumped up and immediately grabbed Li Nan before rolling out. At that moment, the tank shell coming from the front aligned perfectly with the Long-Haired Rabbit rushing from behind!
Seeing that Li Nan had been knocked away by someone else, the Long-Haired Rabbit hesitated for a moment before noticing an iron lump flying towards it. The previous noise had affected this Long-Haired Rabbit so much that now its speed had significantly decreased, and its sensory system had also suffered great damage. It only realized at the last moment that an iron lump was coming straight at it.
Although this Long-Haired Rabbit had never seen such an iron lump before, it could tell with its toes that it wasn't anything good. So it attempted to turn around immediately. Unfortunately, having poured all its strength into trying to bite off Li Nan's head just moments ago left it no chance to escape now!
The Long-Haired Rabbit desperately flailed its front legs, but it was already too late; the tank shell was almost upon it.
Fatty and Li Nan huddled together and rolled out on the ground. Fatty knew well how powerful that tank shell was; if they rolled just a few meters away, they would be safe—underestimating the power of this shell would be foolish!
With a thought in mind, Fatty pressed down on Li Nan and silently prayed: "All I can do is this; please take care of Li Da Peng, Qin Lang, and Lingdang'er for me..."
In an instant, the flying tank shell struck the Long-Haired Rabbit directly, exploding upon impact and turning that creature into nothing but debris. The remaining fragments and shockwave scattered in all directions.
The Small Buildings were already swaying, all the glass windows shattered, and one of the load-bearing walls suffered a tremendous impact, collapsing with a loud crash, while the entire structure of the Small Buildings seemed on the verge of toppling.
When the shell exploded, a cloud of dust erupted, and the flesh of the Long-Haired Rabbit scattered like petals in the wind.
About five or six seconds later, as the dust raised by the explosion gradually settled, Li Nan felt dizzy for a moment before slowly regaining his senses.
Compared to Li Nan, Fatty was in much worse condition, spitting out a pool of dark red blood. The intense heat from the explosion could already be smelled cooking his entire back, creating a horrific stench.
Li Nan pushed Fatty and found that he was unresponsive. He immediately shouted, "Don't play dead on me; you're not dead yet!"
Fatty still showed no reaction, his hands limp and lifeless.
Before Li Nan could react further, a second shell was already heading towards the Small Buildings.
Seeing this, Li Nan quickly moved his limbs and hoisted Fatty onto his back, sprinting away just as the shell struck its target!
After two consecutive shells, the Small Buildings could no longer withstand the assault and collapsed immediately, resembling a massive earthquake!
Dust from the collapsing buildings poured down like a torrential rain, and in an instant, Li Nan's vision was obscured; he could see neither others nor the tank!
In a daze, a piece of falling debris struck right next to Li Nan's feet. Startled by the impact, he lost his balance and fell to the ground, throwing Fatty off his back.
At that moment, Li Nan felt an unprecedented sense of confusion. Had he done everything wrong?
To seize control of the camp, Li Nan had schemed against Rat, Gao Hu, Liu Long, and others. Now it was unclear whether his actions were driven by selfish motives or for the greater good of the camp. With things having escalated to this point, did Li Nan bear no responsibility? As they say, cleverness can lead to one's own downfall; if you scheme too much, you will inevitably be schemed against!
Lying on the ground, Li Nan could no longer produce any sound. He looked around but saw nothing. At that moment, his steadfast belief truly wavered!
Instinctively lying on the ground, Li Nan reached out with both hands to feel for Fatty. To his surprise, he actually touched a human form.
"Whether it's good or bad is beyond recovery now!" Li Nan thought to himself as he embraced that figure. However, upon touching it, he suddenly felt a sticky liquid.
Li Nan looked closely at his palm, only to see a pool of bright red blood.
He brought the figure into his embrace and reached out with both hands, suddenly realizing that half of the person's head had been severed.
"You are not Fatty!" Li Nan shouted, just then, a voice suddenly rang out from behind him, "I wasn't killed by the shell, but I almost got killed by your fall!"
Hearing the voice, Li Nan couldn't help but smile, "I knew you wouldn't die so easily!"
"That's right, I'm a lucky guy. Even a mutated monster with iron teeth can't eat me. How could those few iron lumps take my life? Hmph... cough cough..."
Fatty fell sideways onto the ground, clearly unable to get back up. Li Nan moved closer and wrapped his arms around Fatty, saying, "I'll carry you!"
Fatty weakly extended his arm and swatted away Li Nan's hand. "The Li Nan I know is an indomitable tough guy. The camp is facing unprecedented disaster now; whether we can survive depends entirely on you!"
Li Nan was surprised. "In this situation, can we still turn things around? That person is driving an Army Tank, covered in impenetrable armor. Do we have the ability to contend with it?"
Fatty laughed heartily, spitting out a mouthful of blood, but he continued to speak, "There is no armor that cannot be broken or penetrated. If you want to shoulder the burden of the camp, you must go into battle. What I, Fatty, can do... cough cough... is simply to follow you without hesitation!"
