Yan Fei instinctively fired his gun towards the source of the noise. The 12.7-millimeter bullets caused stone chips to fly everywhere, but no enemy was found there. Yan Fei sensed something was amiss, when he heard a whooshing sound behind him. He turned around, the heavy machine gun firing at full speed, only to see a flying corpse hurling towards him. Under the barrage of bullets from the heavy machine gun, the corpse instantly turned into a pile of mush.
At that moment, beneath the corpse, the glint of a blade flashed—a scimitar, shimmering with a cold light, suddenly appeared, slashing towards Yan Fei like lightning. Caught off-guard, Yan Fei found the scimitar invading his personal space; at such a close distance, the heavy machine gun could no longer continue firing. He immediately swung the heavy machine gun horizontally to block the scimitar. With a "shriek," a teeth-grinding noise was heard as the scimitar cut the barrel of the heavy machine gun in half.
