The electromagnetic cannon missed, and at such a close range too, which made Hu Kun feel like he had been slapped in the face.
He had to quickly fire another shot; he had truly embarrassed himself in front of Feng Jun.
The N1 Tank's main gun was equipped with an automatic loader, capable of firing 15 standard-caliber rounds per minute consecutively.
Hu Kun was confident that the Interceptor would not be able to dodge the next shot.
However, the Interceptor clearly did not want to stay put and wait for death.
Its blood-red eyes suddenly turned pitch black, and after seeing that its sonic attack was ineffective, it began to move.
The massive wound on its right shoulder did not hinder the Interceptor's movements in the slightest; deep red muscle even began to grow some granulation tissue, which constantly swayed in the air.
In an instant, the Interceptor took action.
Before the N1 Tank could fire a second shell, the Interceptor picked up a huge piece of building debris and hurled it towards the N1 Tank.
This kind of projectile attack was harmless to the N1 Tank; it probably couldn't even scratch its exterior.
But the Interceptor's speed had clearly increased.
After throwing the building debris, it transformed directly into an afterimage, moving so fast that the N1 Tank's fire control system couldn't track its figure.
"Fire control system unable to lock on?"
Hearing the gunner's report, Hu Kun almost dropped his jaw, and in disbelief, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the screen in front of him.
At this moment, the image on the screen was already a chaotic mess.
The N1 Tank had 360° optical aiming equipment with no blind spots; even if that failed, it had multiple ways of tracking targets, such as microwave detection and magnetic field induction, but now it was unable to lock onto the Interceptor's movements.
"Don't panic, use the Gauss rapid-fire cannons, sweep fire at the Interceptor."
The N1 Tank's turret was also equipped with four unmanned Gauss rapid-fire cannons.
As long as the approximate movement distance was locked, a barrage of random shots could also hit a fast-moving Interceptor.
Just as Hu Kun was searching for the Interceptor's approximate movement range, a heavy impact sound came from the top of the turret.
It was the Interceptor that made the sound.
Having evaded the fire control system's lock, it did not run away; instead, it used its high-speed movement to directly approach the N1 Tank.
Before Hu Kun could react, it leaped onto the top of the tank's turret.
Although Mutants have a certain level of intelligence and thinking ability, they will definitely fall into a frenzy after being injured, especially this Interceptor.
Because it had exclusively occupied this Harbor for a year, several previous Mutants had been defeated and devoured by it, and even creatures in the sea were at its mercy.
Subconsciously, it had already regarded itself as the king of this area, and for the N1 Tank that suddenly appeared today, the Interceptor treated it as a challenger to its status.
Its huge claws desperately attacked the tank's turret; although they couldn't cause any substantial damage, the ear-piercing metal scraping sound brought great pressure to Hu Kun and the other soldiers inside.
Having been in the wasteland for so long, this was the first time they had encountered a Mutant that dared to fight an N1 Tank at close range.
The Interceptor had gone berserk, its sharp claws tearing at the turret.
Two Gauss unmanned rapid-fire cannons were about to attack it when they were directly torn off by its claws, then furiously smashed and thrown aside.
Before long, the N1 Tank looked like it had undergone a makeover by a barber; the top of its turret became bare, and all the Gauss rapid-fire cannons were completely dismantled by the Interceptor.
Only the eight-tube missile launchers on both sides remained.
During this time, Hu Kun tried to ram left and right, even directly making the tank crash into nearby buildings and abandoned ship hulls.
The N1 Tank directly crashed through one side of a building with the Interceptor, then broke through a wall on the other side and rushed out.
It crashed down several buildings and ship hulls in a row, but the Interceptor, relying on its huge claws and thick arms, remained firmly attached to the tank's turret, refusing to fall off despite the impacts and friction.
The Interceptor had begun to strike the missile launchers hanging on both sides of the turret, which truly startled Hu Kun.
They were full of missiles; if the Interceptor smashed them open, it would be dangerous.
At this moment, Feng Jun was looking at the distant battlefield with a serious expression.
The Interceptor was stuck to the N1 Tank's turret like a stubborn plaster.
However, what surprised Feng Jun was that the speed the Interceptor had just erupted with felt familiar to him.
It felt very similar to when Feng Jun himself entered the Blood Eye State, but much faster.
Moreover, Feng Jun could clearly feel an attraction from the Interceptor, and this attraction was becoming stronger and stronger.
After watching for a while longer, Feng Jun had the idea of going forward himself, but this was not due to the attraction.
Instead, the Interceptor's speed with each claw movement was slowing down, a world of difference from before.
Gradually, its speed had dropped to roughly the same as Feng Jun's after activating his Blood Eye, and it was still decreasing.
This should be caused by the corpse-suppressing smoke that had been accumulating in the Harbor.
Before being injured by the N1 Tank, the corpse-suppressing smoke had little effect on the Interceptor, because its skin could very well isolate the erosive effects of the smoke, and the impact caused by merely breathing was too little.
But after being injured on its right shoulder by the N1 Tank, the smoke could directly contact the Interceptor's flesh and blood.
Although direct injection is the best way to deal with Mutants, the Interceptor had been fighting the N1 Tank in the smoke for an hour, which was enough time for the corpse-suppressing smoke to invade the Interceptor's flesh and blood and take effect.
Moreover, Feng Jun could clearly see that the many granulation tissues that had been wriggling in the air at the Interceptor's wound had now all lost vitality, and had even begun to blacken and become sticky, showing signs of melting.
There was no point in dragging this out any longer.
Feng Jun prepared to put on his Power Armor, activate his Blood Eye, and go fight the Interceptor himself, to see if he could kill the Interceptor with his own hands.
Li Lu also put on her Power Armor and followed behind Feng Jun, constantly swinging the electric hammer in her hand; she also wanted to go with Feng Jun.
"Do you feel it?" Li Lu asked.
She was referring to the Interceptor's moving speed.
As someone who had witnessed Feng Jun activating his ability firsthand, she was naturally very familiar with his ability.
Feng Jun nodded, but he did not let Li Lu follow.
In short, he didn't want Li Lu to get too close to danger.
Although Li Lu had two hearts, the heartbreaking feeling Feng Jun experienced when the Ape-man pierced her heart that day was real.
Hu Kun had already received Feng Jun's notification: stabilize the tank and the Interceptor as much as possible, the boss was going to enter the fray personally.
Hu Kun sat in the tank's command room, his clothes completely soaked with sweat.
He had been captured by Feng Jun and brought under his command after the Zombie Tide occurred, so he had naturally not witnessed the scene of Feng Jun and Li Lu fighting Mutants during the Zombie Tide.
However, he had heard of Feng Jun's might.
He never expected that his first time out would require the boss to clean up his mess.
