Chapter 268: Chapter 203: Orbital Air DropThe tall black man stopped a hundred meters away, eyeing Ji Xinghuo and the others with interest, utterly unaffected by the "Silent Illusion". Ji Xinghuo and his five companions also observed him. The black man’s appearance was too distinctive, especially his half-meter-long, shiny hair. While most black men have curly hair, his was straightened, each strand glossy and silky, well-groomed and flowing with the wind behind him, making him look very dashing, like the mane of a lion. "’Giant Lion General’ Kaminda!" Chi Zhonglin exclaimed in shock. At his reminder, the others were also startled. The ruler of the East Africa Kingdom, the "Black King" Mongestu, had eight generals who were his right-hand men, controlling the nation’s army with these eight individuals. All eight were Legendary Mutants, each of them powerful with the nickname "General". Five of the generals were on the Legendary list. The "Giant Lion General" Kaminda before them was one of them and maybe not very famous globally, but in the nations of Africa, especially in the East Africa Kingdom, he was a frightening figure who could make children stop crying. Ji Xinghuo hadn’t known about Kaminda before, and only noticed him when looking up information on the East Africa Kingdom before setting out. He had glanced through it casually and didn’t expect to actually encounter him. Kaminda held the 713th spot on the Legendary list! Rank 713 might seem not high, but it already placed him at the pinnacle of the global Mutants. According to statistics, there were about two billion Mutants globally, and less than 4000 Mutants could advance to Legendary status, averaging one Legendary per 500,000 Mutants. Each Legendary Mutant is truly a "legend". The Legendary list established by ADC only had a thousand slots; any Mutant who made it onto the list was among the best of the legends, defeating an average of three peers to compete. The ADC’s Legendary profile for Kaminda surfaced in Ji Xinghuo’s mind. Kaminda was born in a small tribe in central Africa and grew up in the wilderness among fierce animals. At the age of twelve, he lost both parents and entered the East Africa Kingdom alone, joining the army, displaying exceptional talent, and after selection, joined the personal guard training camp of the Black King Mongestu, who took a liking to him, personally nurtured him and rapidly promoted him until he advanced to Legendary and was granted the general’s title. Kaminda was ruthless and did many dirty jobs for the Black King, his hands stained with blood. The blood of enemies, friends, and even relatives. But most of all, the blood of the people of East Africa. His first professional template was "Commander", a Mutant profession usually found only in the army, merging with the Transcendent Species "Command", drawing strength enhancements from the Mutants under his command. The more Mutants he led, the higher the strength boost. His second professional template was "War General", a fairly common occupation. Two occupational advancements, yet capable of forming the extremely powerful "War General"! This is a professional template born for the battlefield, like the lion king among a pride of lions. The War General consolidates the strength of his troops into himself, comprehensively enhancing his own strength, defense, speed, recovery, and will. As long as the army survives, the War General does not die. Kaminda was at Legendary Second Dan. At that moment, the over one hundred people following behind him were his core command troops. Ji Xinghuo scanned them, all at least Advanced Mutants, with several Super Mutants among them. He immediately felt a sinking feeling in his heart. The number of troops a War General could command was limited, especially the core troops. Legendary War Generals in armies worldwide typically commanded around 50 people, but Kaminda’s contingent exceeded one hundred. The stronger the command troops, the higher the boost the War General received. Ji Xinghuo could feel a terrifying pressure even though Kaminda just stood a hundred meters away, not yet in a combat stance. His teammates looked even paler, their eyes filled with despair. Even without Kaminda, just the army surrounding the canyon, with at least two to three thousand men, Sky Fighters, armored vehicles, and artillery, was enough to leave them with no place to bury their bodies. And there were over a dozen Hunting Teams watching, not harboring good intentions. "Just a strange giant lizard, was it necessary to create such a big scene?" Chi Zhonglin muttered to himself, very puzzled. Lu Yunhai anxiously said, "Could there be some misunderstanding?" "I’m afraid not," Ji Xinghuo shook his head. Yuan Chongzhen was both shocked and angry, "Why did they arrive so quickly, able to precisely locate our position?" As soon as he said this, the teammates exchanged looks. "Is there a mole?" Chi Zhonglin almost jumped up, "Or were we implanted with trackers, continually located by someone?" But no one seemed suspicious, at least not at the moment. Ji Xinghuo had guessed this earlier and said calmly, "Now is not the time to delve into this issue." He stepped toward Kaminda. Bang! A loud gunshot echoed through the canyon. The ground in front of Ji Xinghuo was blasted into a big crater; if he had taken one more step forward, he would have been hit. The gunshot came from the side of the canyon, a cliff edge with a large gun barrel visible. The sniper, revealing only his upper body behind the gun, aimed unwaveringly with a cold gaze. Energy Pulse Sniper Gun! This weapon, firing super-high-temperature plasma beams, had an effective range up to five kilometers and was extremely powerful, capable of killing a Legendary with a single shot. Ji Xinghuo’s teammates all had cold sweat on their faces. Ji Xinghuo had no choice but to stand still, looking toward the Giant Lion General Kaminda across from him. "General, sir." He greeted. Kaminda had been sizing up Ji Xinghuo and the others for a long time and finally spoke, "Someone has put a price on your heads that I could not refuse." He spoke in the common language of Asia, his accent not standard, sounding somewhat antiquated and unclear, but nobody dared to show even a hint of ridicule at this moment. Ji Xinghuo asked, "Can you tell me who it is?" "No." Kaminda stared at Ji Xinghuo, suddenly spat out the grass stem in his mouth, grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth, and said, "I didn’t want to waste words with you, I wanted to fight directly, but the other party offered too much, which piqued my curiosity instead." "Heh..." he laughed inexplicably. "Although I’ve killed many, many people, I don’t kill indiscriminately. I never touch those who shouldn’t be provoked." "I don’t know you." Kaminda looked at Ji Xinghuo meaningfully. "Can you give me a reason not to kill you?" Ji Xinghuo understood his meaning. So he immediately said, "I am a Chi Xiao Knight from the Sword Bureau." "Not enough." Kaminda shook his head. "The Sword Bureau doesn’t scare me, let me tell you a secret quietly, seven swordsmen have already died by my hand, and they died miserably. I can’t help it; I hate espionage, especially when it might threaten the king’s rule." Ji Xinghuo’s heart chilled. Kaminda dared to state this openly, meaning he was not afraid of the Sword Bureau’s retaliation. "I am Ji Xinghuo." Ji Xinghuo declared his identity. "Oh?" Kaminda raised an eyebrow, his eyes showing interest, "So you are the lucky guy who manipulated the Sword Immortal, I envy you!" Then he scanned Ji Xinghuo, eagerly saying, "Where is your Purple Lightning Sword?" With his strength and position, he naturally knew about the Purple Lightning Sword. "I have already returned it to the bureau," Ji Xinghuo honestly replied. "What a pity!" Kaminda shook his head regretfully, his black hair waving like ripples, "If you had brought the Purple Lightning Sword and voluntarily handed it over to me, I might have considered sparing your life." But Ji Xinghuo didn’t believe his lies at all. If he had gotten the Purple Lightning Sword, the first thing he would do was kill the witness; he wouldn’t dare let the Sword Bureau know that the sword was in his possession. "Anything else?" Kaminda dragged the huge war blade in front of him and stood it upright. Ji Xinghuo did not respond. "You should hand over the Alien Species too." Kaminda started to get impatient, speaking very seriously, "That giant lizard is a protected animal in my country. You’ve killed it and violated royal laws; all profits must be surrendered, be proactive, and I’ll leave your corpses intact." Ji Xinghuo still said nothing. "Hmm?" Kaminda’s expression darkened, like a volcano on the verge of eruption. A terrifying aura spread out, enveloping the whole team. The surrounding army also prepared to open fire. Chi Zhonglin and others were so frightened that their limbs went numb, the threat of death looming, shaking their spirits, and they couldn’t help shouting, "Xinghuo, say something." Ji Xinghuo turned around, and his teammates saw his face break into a brilliant smile and were instantly stunned. At such a time, you can still smile? "General Your Excellency." Ji Xinghuo finally spoke again, but his words terrified his teammates half to death, "The Alien Species are our spoils of war, and you can’t touch any of them. Also, you claimed to have killed seven swordsmen from the Sword Bureau; you will soon pay the price for that." "We’re done!" The teammates closed their eyes. "Hahaha..." Kaminda threw his head back and laughed wildly, about to order the elimination of these oblivious people, but his laughter abruptly ceased. He looked up at the sky, his expression frozen. An eerie silence fell over the canyon, Chi Zhonglin and others trembled in fear, unable to understand the situation. Suddenly, a thunderous rumble came from the sky. It was like thunder, but longer and more massive, as if a dozen thunders were stacked together, coming closer and closer. Everyone could not help but look up. They saw a dozen black spots appear in the clear sky, these spots rapidly enlarging as if a swarm of meteors were falling, the angle of descent nearly vertical to the ground, with only a slight angle, trailing long tails of fire. Their speed was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, they were over the canyon, many already saw that these were not meteors but rather drop pods! Boom, boom, boom... One after another, the shuttle-shaped drop pods fell, and just before hitting the ground, the bottom rockets sprayed out flames to slow down, but they still crashed heavily onto the ground. Meteors hit the earth, sound explosions roared like the arrival of doomsday. The entire canyon trembled. The drop pods’ landing spots were clearly calculated; a third fell within the canyon, scattered around Ji Xinghuo and his team, forming a defensive circle. The rest of the drop pods landed on both sides of the canyon, positioned behind the army, occupying advantageous locations. Before the dust settled, all the drop pods opened like blooming petals; the doors on all four sides swung open.

Each one over two meters tall, clad in black and red-trimmed power armor that covered their entire bodies, wielding enormous firearms and weapons, their movements incredibly swift, like moving alloy fortresses rapidly advancing. Although there were only 120 men, they appeared as a thousand troops, surrounding the over two thousand people inside and outside the canyon. Chi Zhonglin and the others were overwhelmed with excitement, shouting cheers. Kaminda, however, was a mix of shock and anger; his soldiers showing faces filled with fear, instinctively retreating. Everyone recognized this army that descended from the sky. They were the most powerful mutant army in human history, famously known throughout the world as the number one legion on Earth! The Great Summer Army, Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men!
