Chapter 826: Under Attack ( 2 )
Chapter 826: Under Attack ( 2 )
The moment she heard her sister’s words, Du Beiye pulled out the bazooka from her back and aimed it at the space portal.
Wuuung~
The bazooka made a humming sound for a few seconds before a blue light with a diameter of more than one meter shot out from it and hit the space portal.
ZING! BOOM!
The moment the light hit the portal, it exploded instantly. The explosion killed a large group of Matkuna soldiers and sent those nearby flying.
For 2 seconds, a void crack appeared and sucked everything inside before the backlash of the explosion created massive energy waves that spread to the surroundings at a fast speed, crushing everything around it.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"UGH!"
Both Du Beiye and Jiao Lizhi were also hit by the energy wave.
The instant the energy wave hit the mobile suit, a layer of blue barrier appeared instantly, while a massive shield appeared on Du Beiye’s hand.
The barrier and the shield blocked the energy waves and reduced the impact. Du Beiye was pushed back, leaving a deep, long trail on the ground.
While she was able to withstand the impact, Jiao Lizhi was not so lucky. The moment she was hit by the energy wave, she was sent flying for more than 50 meters.
Fortunately, she was now a level 6 mutant and able to use her energy to stabilize herself in mid-air. When the second energy wave hit her, she had created a thick ice shield to block the impact.
BOOM! CRACK!
The ice shield cracked under the heavy pressure. Sharp wind and a cloud of dust hindered her vision. Gritting her teeth, she continued to circulate her energy to sustain the ice shield.
The energy waves lasted for a full minute before they finally calmed down. When she landed on the ground, she noticed that even after so many bugs were killed, their number was not decreasing.
Judging from the situation, if they didn’t retreat now, they would be trapped here. Reaching this conclusion, Jiao Lizhi turned to her sister and saw her nod.
With a tacit understanding, the 2 of them retreated to the base while killing the bugs.
At the same time, the alarm sound echoed in the entire base.
BRRRIINNNGGG!!
The guards and mutants rushed to the fourth wall, while the civilians followed the base’s staff and went to the underground bunker in an orderly manner.
The moment the alarm was sounded, Xun Che and the higher-ranking officers went to the control tower to check on the surveillance cameras.
The officers responsible for security had sent several drones to check the situation outside the base. The moment they saw a large swarm of bugs coming at a fast speed in the distance, everyone’s face turned solemn.
"Get a close-up," Xun Che said.
One of the officers zoomed in, and they finally got a clear sight of the situation.
"Commander, those are not zombie cockroaches," one of the higher-ranking officers said with surprise.
"It’s not. They are the aliens."
The moment Xun Che said this, everyone recalled the bug caught by the member of the Phantom Team and felt a chill run down their spine. They had learned the information regarding the bug from the researchers after they conducted countless tests and experiments using the sample.
Although they had long known about the existence of this outer space race, they thought that at most there were only a few of them, and their existence wouldn’t be able to threaten the human race. Unexpectedly, they were wrong.
With the number of aliens coming, it would be hard for them to defend the base. After all, from the information they had about those bugs, they had high attack power and defense. Even killing 1 of them would not be an easy feat.
With the Phantom Team going out on a mission, there were only a few A-rank mercenary teams that would be able to fight against them.
The moment they reached this conclusion, everyone turned to look at Xun Che.
As the Commander, he was much calmer than the rest. He observed the situation for a moment and realized that there was a robot and a woman delaying the bugs. When he saw the face of the woman, he knew that the robot was also a member of Jin Xuyan’s team.
"Activate level 3 emergency protocol immediately. All mutants and guards will take turns to defend the wall. Build the temporary infirmaries and prepare the supplies."
After a moment of pause, he added, "There is no need to use the weapons. It won’t be able to kill those bugs."
"Understood," everyone replied in unison and went to carry out their tasks.
Wen Hanli sent a message to Jin Xuyan before he went to check on the logistics. As for Xun Che, he went to the fourth wall to lead the battle personally.
Meanwhile, Mo Junjie had already reached the fourth wall. Standing on the top of the wall, he saw the massive robot in the distance. Even if he was worried about Du Beiye’s safety, he didn’t rush over recklessly and waited.
Both Du Beiye and Jiao Lizhi had killed countless bugs during their retreat, which angered the Matkuna Commander. Raising its head, it let out a series of high-pitched sounds. Soon after, several Matkuna captains flew toward them at high speed.
Looking at them, Jiao Lizhi was reminded of flying cockroaches and felt goosebumps immediately. As someone who had lived on Earth for years, she instinctively thought about a slipper when she saw a flying cockroach.
Perhaps her urge to hit the bugs with a slipper was too intense, and the black scythe she was holding was suddenly enveloped by a bright blue light.
"A new weapon form has been registered. Activating the fourth form."
The moment she heard Gaia’s voice echoing in her mind, Jiao Lizhi saw her cool scythe suddenly turn into a giant black slipper.
Wuunnggg~
Before she could react, she saw one of the Matkuna captains getting closer to her. Without further thought, she swung the giant slipper with all of her might.
SMACK! CRASH!
