Chapter 331: Unsung Hero
Although Li Qing is now deaf and blind, he cannot even perceive the surrounding terrain.
But after personally experiencing the all-too-familiar sound of an earthquake, he immediately guessed roughly where and when he was.
The feeling of this magic sound piercing his ears was almost exactly the same as what he experienced in Naples.
And if I really go back to this time and this place, according to Li Qing's memory...
A big guy who is not easy to deal with seems to have made a grand appearance.
So, when Diablo used Lee Sin as a hammer and threw him into the air with a 720-degree spiral acceleration, Lee Sin almost knew what this guy was doing:
"He's using me to feed the meat!"
Li Qing's face looked extremely ugly.
His body was flying through the air like a human cannonball.
The astonishing speed obviously attracted the attention of the lava beast.
Its body, as big as a hill, suddenly twisted, deformed, and pounced at incredible speed.
The wind was howling and the waves were shaking. The sound of this high-speed moving mountain of flesh even surpassed the might of the earth-shaking sky.
Even though Li Qing's hearing was severely impaired, he could still sense the presence of the giant from the oncoming storm waves .
It was obvious that if this continued, Li Qing would soon have another physical contact with his "old friend".
"Diabolo..."
"Fuck you!"
Li Qing couldn't help but yell in horror.
But no matter how much he was scolded, Diablo's plan still succeeded.
He used Li Qing as bait to save his past self, but Li Qing uncontrollably crashed into the towering body of the lava beast.
Sizzle…
Before the Meat Mountain started to exert its strength, Li Qing was burned by the lava armor on its body, making a sound like grilled meat on an iron plate.
His health, which was less than 10%, dropped rapidly under the burning of the lava.
The meat mountain that had captured its prey slowly moved its tentacles, trying to swallow Li Qing whole, flesh and bones.
Even though Li Qing's strength is no longer what it used to be, he is unable to resist this undead monster as big as a mountain.
Soon, the wriggling waves of flesh covered his body.
He was sinking step by step into the meat mountain like a leaky boat.
“Damn it…”
"I'm not going to die in a place like this, am I?"
Li Qing couldn't help feeling panic and anxiety.
His health is only 5% left and is still decreasing.
Fortunately, Li Qing was able to withstand strong attacks after upgrading, so he was not killed instantly by the terrifying combination of lava burning and flesh wave squeezing.
His body was already bound by the waves of flesh and he couldn't move at all.
The only part that could move freely was the arm that had not yet been swallowed by the wave of flesh.
But according to the current speed at which the meat mountain is swallowing, Li Qing's last movable arm will be swallowed up completely in the next second.
"No…I shouldn't die here."
"Otherwise, some things would be hard to explain."
"Just like in the movie, in the paradoxical time loop, everyone's fate has already been determined."
"So the situation will definitely turn around, and I will definitely survive!"
In the moment of despair, Li Qing suddenly felt a surge of hope.
The kind of confidence that was difficult for others to understand made him chop off his own head frantically and realize this incredible time-travel plan.
At this moment, he has such confidence that he will never give up.
really…
At this critical moment, the earthquake that had been roaring for a long time finally stopped.
The shaking of the earth suddenly stopped, and Li Qing's ears instantly became clear again.
The whole world became clear, and the position and outline of every object within a radius of hundreds of meters appeared in his mind.
Li Qing's brain tried its best to process this complex spatial information, and soon found the best help for him to escape:
"There is an armed helicopter hovering 200 meters in the air!"
"There are two crew members on board, a pilot and a machine gunner..."
"They are my hope of escape!"
Thanks to the sonic detection capability that was comparable to that of the White Eyes, the three-dimensional structure of the helicopter was clearly presented in his mind.
The machine gunner guarding the hatch machine gun was firmly locked by Li Qing's powerful perception.
As the waves of flesh squeezed and swallowed him, he stretched out his right arm with all his strength in the red lava.
The fist flowing with magma did not tremble at all, and the fist was pointing at the armed helicopter hovering 200 meters in the air:
"Please... please make sure you hit it."
"This is my last skill—"
Li Qing gritted his teeth and roared with all his hopes:
"Heavenly Sound Wave!"
※※※
This US military helicopter was originally sent to investigate the scene of the biological and chemical attack.
But the two American soldiers on the helicopter had just arrived at the scene and had not yet started their mission when they saw a scene that was enough to shock them for the rest of their lives:
"Oh my god..."
"What the hell is this?!"
Looking at the lava monster raging wildly in the city below, its towering body is as high as 40 meters...
The driver and the machine gunner could not help but call out to the Father in heaven with the familiar word beginning with "F".
Just as they came to their senses from the shock and were about to fly the helicopter away from here...
Suddenly, a ball of white light entered the cabin.
The machine gunner sitting in the middle of the cabin was hit by the white light, and a strange fluorescent mark appeared on his body.
The driver in front was horrified, and the next second...
"Echo Shot!"
A bald head suddenly flew in the sky.
Li Qing rushed into the cabin at a very fast speed and punched the unlucky machine gunner.
"Sorry, this is the minimum force I can control now..."
Looking at the unconscious machine gunner, Li Qing said embarrassedly.
But the driver no longer cared about the situation of his comrades.
Because he clearly saw that when Li Qing took off from the ground just now, the mountain of flesh also moved.
This movement is a force that can destroy the world.
The huge lava monster as big as a mountain suddenly soared into the sky, following Li Qing's steps, and swooped down towards the armed helicopter in the sky.
“Oh my god!!”
The driver yelled with a pale face.
He was so terrified by the attack of the meat mountain that his whole body was shaking, and even the helicopter he was piloting began to shake violently.
"Don't panic!"
"Fly the plane properly!"
Li Qing shouted calmly in the face of danger, shocking the driver who was almost collapsed.
Then, he skillfully set up the Vulcan machine gun next to the hatch and fired a volley of bullets into the sky.
The meat mountain was attracted by the bullets again, temporarily pausing its attack to devour the helicopter.
"Do you have missiles? If you do, you can fire a couple to help draw fire."
Li Qing continued to take over the command.
The driver was slightly stunned, and then he reacted hurriedly from the shock.
He was now a little confused, and he subconsciously followed whatever Li Qing said.
Even if Li Qing is actually a mysterious person with unknown identity.
So, the pilot flew the helicopter away with a pale face, while tremblingly firing all the missiles on board the plane in one breath.
Those little guys with amazing speed were indeed very much to Meat Mountain’s liking.
The Meat Mountain's offensive was reduced again, and it instead followed the helicopter, jumping and eating "snacks".
"B-but...why is it still following us?"
"Even missiles can't kill it?!"
The driver cried out with tears in his eyes.
The helicopter also danced disco in the air along with his body.
"Calm down, calm down!"
"Trust me, it'll be fine."
Li Qing needed to operate the machine gun to restrain the Meat Mountain, and he couldn't get away at all. He could only use soothing words to try to make the driver more reliable.
But this young American soldier was obviously not as steady as Lieutenant General Colt.
He was unable to listen to Li Qing's command calmly, and he answered the radio in panic, hoping that his comrades at the US military base would quickly send more troops to rescue him.
However, after hearing such bizarre reports as "a 40-meter-high meat mountain" and "a monster that cannot be killed by missiles"...
The attitude at the base suddenly became somewhat subtle.
It wasn't that they didn't believe the driver's words. After all, the noise made by the meat mountain was faintly noticeable even to the US military base a few kilometers away...
But just because they have some faith in their hearts, they will not send anyone to support.
That's a 40-meter-tall monster. If it were real, who would go over there and seek death easily?
"We will report these situations to Commander Colt now."
"Soldier, please try to hold on."
“…”
After receiving this reply, the young driver's face immediately turned green:
Do you still need to report to the commander first?
By the time Colt approved the order for support, his body would probably have been digested!
At this moment, the American pilot fell into complete despair.
But like all drowning people, he instinctively grasped the last straw beside him:
"Help! Help me!"
He placed all his hopes on Li Qing:
"I'll do whatever you say. Please tell me what to do!"
"Just fly the plane well."
"Don't worry about anything else. I promise to save you all."
Li Qing said calmly while operating the machine gun to use bullets to attract hatred.
"Okay, where should we fly?"
The driver asked impatiently.
"this…"
Li Qing hesitated for a moment and replied:
"Just fly to the nearest coast."
"The nearest coast?" The pilot instinctively resisted: "But our naval base is right there!"
"Is your base near there?"
Hearing this, Li Qing suddenly realized:
"That's right then!"
※※※
Meanwhile, on the ground.
Thanks to the help of an unknown warrior who appeared out of nowhere to attract hatred, Li Qing escaped from the Roshan's perception range without much effort.
"It's safe..."
Standing in the devastated ruins, Li Qing took a long breath.
After running so far, it should be impossible for Diablo or Roshan to catch up with him.
Li Qing was thinking this...
From the broken city behind him came the roar of a monster crushing him.
The sound was getting closer and the noise was getting louder.
"Depend on!"
Li Qing couldn't help but swear.
But he reacted quickly:
"No... I'm not moving at all now, it's definitely not chasing me."
"In other words, this meat mountain is just passing by?"
Li Qing calmed down and sensed it carefully:
Sure enough, the mountain of meat was not chasing him, but an armed helicopter flying in the air.
The "unsung heroes" on the helicopter were fleeing frantically in the pursuit of the Meat Mountain, while bravely firing at the Meat Mountain.
This creates a vicious cycle.
The more the helicopter fired its machine guns, the more vigorously the Meat Mountain chased.
The more excitedly the Meat Mountain chased, the more the people on the plane fired.
Just like that, following the helicopter, the meat mountain rushed out of the ruined city and gradually approached the distant coast.
It is close to the port warehouse on the seashore and also close to the naval base in the harbor .
"this…"
Li Qing was filled with emotion:
This US military helicopter really helped him and the city a lot.
It single-handedly led the meat mountain several kilometers out of the city. With its contribution, it would become very easy to lead the meat mountain into the sea later.
"Hollywood movies don't lie..."
"They're really going to save the Earth this time."
Li Qing silently applauded these unsung heroes.
