Chapter 709: Chapter 304: Body Cutting_2 Chapter 709: Chapter 304: Body Cutting_2 Duan Hongye faced a life-threatening attack, and a cold sweat broke out on his back. It wasn't the intense pain, but the fear that came afterwards. Had he not sensed danger ahead of time and moved his body slightly in an impossible situation, it wouldn't have been just his right shoulder being sliced off, but his whole body being cut in two. By that time, Duan Hongye would have truly died, and even gods couldn't save him.
Feeling a pain that he hadn't felt in a long time due to injury, Duan Hongye was extremely shocked. He thought he had overestimated Yan Fei's strength, but he still underestimated it. He was full of confidence when he struck, but he didn't even get to see Yan Fei's face, and he was attacked in various ways. In the end, he even had his entire right shoulder sliced off.
However, as a God-Level Expert, Duan Hongye possessed various amazing abilities, including control over his own body. A God-Level Expert's control over their body has reached the point of doing whatever they wish, even if limbs are severed, as long as they can find the severed limbs quickly and reattach them, Duan Hongye could heal his severed limbs and recover normal use of them.
Thus, when his right shoulder was sliced off, Duan Hongye didn't believe it was the end of the world. Given time, he could regrow his right shoulder. However, after the entire shoulder was severed, Duan Hongye's strength would inevitably decline, even to a very dangerous level, which was a huge blow to the supremely high and mighty Duan Hongye.
The mysterious fluctuation that severed Duan Hongye's shoulder caused him palpitations, and in that moment, Duan Hongye even felt the threat of death. After experiencing the terror of the mysterious fluctuation firsthand, Duan Hongye realized how unfathomable Yan Fei really was, because he had no clue if Yan Fei had any more trump cards that could harm him.
Duan Hongye was now severely injured and his strength had plummeted. Even if Yan Fei had no more lethal trump cards, just another emission of that mysterious fluctuation would ensure that Duan Hongye, still under the rocks, couldn't possibly escape unharmed.
So, upon realizing he was actually in extreme danger, Duan Hongye immediately abandoned his plan of action for the day. He decided to take his severed right shoulder with him, find a safe place to hide and heal his wounds, and then come back to trouble Yan Fei after healing. However, the next time he would come, he would certainly not enter the battlefield Yan Fei had set, because it was far too dangerous. If he fell into Yan Fei's trap again and Yan Fei launched that mysterious fluctuation, Duan Hongye would still suffer a heavy loss.
What Duan Hongye didn't know was that the thing that had just severed his shoulder was Yan Fei's ultimate trump card, a new feature added to the drone after its upgrade– the shockwave. In a previous underground excavation operation, Yan Fei discovered that the shockwave was invincible with powerful destructive capabilities, but had many limitations when deployed.
While using the shockwave, the drone would be unable to move, thus becoming extremely vulnerable and in danger of enemy attacks. The drone also needed a long time to charge, and once the direction and flight trajectory data of the shockwave were set, no changes could be made.
So when used as a weapon in an attack, shockwaves actually had a significant flaw because they couldn't attack moving targets. Even the slowest person could move out of the attack range of the shockwave during the drone's lengthy charging process. Thus, the best use of the shockwave was for creating space underground and not for attacking, as no one would stand still and let you hit them.
But once Yan Fei realized that his traps couldn't stop Duan Hongye, and after discovering the special environment of the Underground Passage, he immediately thought of using the shockwave for attack. It was only in such a special environment that the shockwave could exhibit its incomparable attacking strength. And at that time, the medium-range ballistic missile launched by Japan was still in space, yet to re-enter the atmospheric layer, and the intercepting missiles launched by the drone were flying towards their interception destinations on a preset flight trajectory, making it unnecessary to use the drone for guidance.
Yan Fei intended to use this brief interval to first deal with Duan Hongye, not allowing him to cause trouble at a critical moment. So he immediately controlled the drone hidden in the clouds to land on the ground, and under the cover of the clouds, moved it above Duan Hongye. Next, he switched the drone to Subterranean Mode, allowing the drone to quickly descend below the ground, hiding about two meters below the surface.
The drone's Quantum Radar then activated, locking onto Duan Hongye below the ground. As Duan Hongye was by then buried under the rocks and unable to move, Yan Fei began to set the shockwave's emission range and trajectory based on Duan Hongye's position and potential direction of movement, preparing to attack with the shockwave while Duan Hongye was immobile.
To ensure the attack would be fatal in one strike, the shockwave's emission range was designed to be very large, to make sure the attack was effective and leave Duan Hongye no chance to dodge. However, this meant the drone's Energy Points consumption reached astronomical numbers, but to deal with Duan Hongye, the cost was considered worth it.
