New Era (9)

In the dark universe, two forces collided with each other, unleashing a power that was enough to destroy the heavens and the earth. Pei Qin held up an energy shield and narrowly caught the powerful Saint Realm warrior who was knocked away.

"Su He, are you okay?" His voice reached the other person's ears through the energy medium.

Su He raised his hand to wipe the blood from his lips. "It's okay. I won't die for now. These bugs are really insidious. They actually chose to attack me in space."

With no support from either side, it would be a fantasy for the human camp with only four people from the Sanctuary to win the battle.

Pei Qin nodded and said, "Don't fight them head-on. Try to delay as much as possible."

Su He frowned slightly, then quickly thought of Shi Jianxia. He guessed that the leader might have other plans, so he replied, "Okay!"

He was besieged by five high-level Zergs alone, and it was impossible for him to delay time. But now that he had three companions, he could try to avoid a life-and-death battle with them.

As for escaping, not to mention whether they are faster than these insects with insect vortexes, the Insect King is not a fool. If he can't catch up with them, he can target the planet that cannot escape.

No planet can withstand the full force of a powerful Saint Realm warrior. If it really comes to that, countless people will die.

So I can't run, I can only delay as much as possible.

The two of them stopped talking and immediately went to help the other two powerful Sanctuary masters, He Shu and Xu Xizhao, who were already fighting against the high-level Zerg.

Lu fluttered his wings, floating in the universe. After a long absence, his wings, broken by the day, had returned to their original shape. When he fluttered, he dropped fine phosphorus powder, like tiny specks of starlight scattered across the universe.

His appearance is no less than that of Zhou Yu, and his arrogant temperament and cold eyes make him look like a self-centered demon god.

At this moment, he stared at the three powerful Saint Realm warriors who came to support him, with a cold smile on his lips.

Finally they came. Now that they were all caught in one fell swoop, he didn't have to look for them one by one.

He opened his mouth slightly and sent an order for a quick victory to the four Zerg sanctuaries.

The butterfly-faced man with colorful wings vibrated his wings and disappeared from the spot in an instant. The next second, he launched a fierce attack on the human sanctuary!

The energy waves pushed forward layer by layer, like a sea swept by a storm, destroying everything.

The huge energy collision and interaction caused a big explosion in the universe. The nearby planets were affected, the magnetic field changed, the sky suddenly changed from sunny to cloudy, and heavy rain poured down.

An astronomy enthusiast who was observing the universe happened to see the magnificent scene caused by the energy explosion and fell to the ground in shock.

Before she could react to what was happening, an urgent news message suddenly popped up on her smart computer.

A large number of Zerg vortices have appeared across the Federation. It is predicted that the Zerg will launch a full-scale invasion of the human universe within an hour. The strong men of the Sanctuary are fighting against the higher-level Zerg. Humanity is at a critical moment of life and death.

The disaster struck unexpectedly, with urgent news broadcast across planets. Some people collapsed in panic and ran rampant in the streets, some grabbed weapons and prepared to fight the Zerg to the bitter end, and some...

The governments and armies of various planets immediately took action, evacuating the people in different areas to air-raid shelters that had been reinforced with space.

There is no more pure land in the entire human universe.

In the capital star council hall, all important members of the Federation attended in the form of virtual projections, intensely discussing how to deal with the sudden and full-scale invasion of the Zerg and arranging the strategic deployment of various galaxies.

Ji Yang issued one order after another in an orderly manner.

She still looked calm and composed, but only she knew how fast her heart was beating in her chest, and her nerves were like a tight string that would break if she was not careful.

When the tension reached its peak, a clock-like pattern emerged in her eyes, bringing with it some fragmented fragments.

People sat in the ruins and cried. Zergs were wantonly eating the corpses of people with special abilities. A young woman in a black cloak knelt on the ground... The entire mermaid tribe helped humans resist the rampant Zerg.

The familiar figure that flashed by startled her and she shook her head reflexively, thinking she was hallucinating. But when she reacted and wanted to see the scene clearly, the clock pattern had quietly disappeared from her sight.

Ji Yang ignored the dense and noisy sounds around his ears and slowly raised his hand.

The shadow of a clock appeared in her palm. This was her mimicry, called Reverse Clock. Because using her mimicry talent came at the cost of her life, Ji Yang had used it only a few times.

But more than a year ago, Ni Shizhong suddenly fell into a deep sleep, and no matter what she did, she couldn't wake him up. And half a year ago, he moved without any warning.

Ji Yang instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out the reason why it was sleeping.

Now, she had a pretty bold guess.

Ji Yang announced the suspension of the meeting and ordered all military officers and politicians to organize actions on the spot to resist the Zerg and protect the people.

Away from everyone's sight, Ji Yang sat alone in the study, looking at the counterclockwise shadow in his palm, sighed heavily, crossed his hands and closed his eyes, trying to communicate with it.

Everyone's mimicry can be detected to a certain level, but her mimicry is levelless. No matter how many times it is measured, the instrument cannot display the level.

Ji Yang knew how much covetousness this mimicry that could reverse time would attract, so he had been carefully hiding and working hard to climb up to become the highest authority in the federation.

She had tried countless times to communicate with Counter-Clock, but not once was she successful.

If... if the human universe has really reached the end of its rope, can her mimicry restore everything to the time before it happened?

-

Outside the Nantengxing Nixie community.

Jun Xiaoyi and Wen Qiuqiu looked at the large group of people blocking the outside of the community and exchanged silent glances.

Bai Xiaojiu went to find No. 4 and the others, wanting them to help fight off the Zerg and atone for his sins.

Baili Xuanyao raised an eyebrow and said, "You two aren't planning on doing this on your own without us, are you?"

Looking around, all the military academy students who had returned from the Zerg universe were there, about twenty of them, all holding weapons, looking like they were ready for a big fight.

Jiang Yingdu smiled slightly: "Although our combat power is limited, it is still no problem to kill some low-level Zerg. If only the two of you act, you may be wiped out."

Jun Xiaoyi: "..."

A large number of Zerg vortices appeared on Nan Teng Star. People from the Zerg Investigation Office and the military have been dispatched to resist the Zerg invasion. All those with special abilities registered with the Association have also received the call-up order. All the teachers and students of Nan Teng Military Academy have participated in the action and are fighting fiercely with the Zerg.

Wen Qiuqiu smiled and said, "If I really can't win, I can run away with Xiaoyi."

The Seven-Colored Jade Demon's invisibility ability was practically a bug. As long as they didn't touch her, even Saint Realm experts couldn't sense her presence. It was precisely because of this that Ziqiongxing fell to the Seven-Colored Jade Yao without warning.

If you really can't win, there's no need to fight hard. Find a place to recover your strength and then fight back.

Everyone burst into laughter. Bai Qiqi bent her fingers and tapped the door of the hovercraft, "I don't have time to waste on you."

Mu Shaoqi immediately jumped up and said, "I'll sit on the roof, you guys can do whatever you want."

"Why don't you go under the car?" Que Zhaoying suggested to him.

A group of people got on the bus noisily, as if they were not going to participate in a decisive battle with unpredictable life and death, but rather to go on an outing with friends on a sunny spring day.

In Mu Shaoqi's words, if you kill one Zerg, you break even, if you kill two, you break even, if you kill three, you'll make a killing. If you can kill a large group of them, you'll get a military rank.

Wen Qiuqiu pinched the corner of her clothes nervously. After thinking carefully, she opened her smart brain to send a message to her brother that she would participate in the battle. He replied with a voice message, "Sister, come on, I'll wait for you to come back."

She slowly breathed a sigh of relief and replied to him with a smile, "I will."

After exiting the dialog box, a communication suddenly popped up. Wen Qiuqiu was slightly stunned when he saw the message.

It’s the head of state Ji Yang.

-

"No, he is too strong. We can't hold on for long." Xu Xizhao held Su He's hand to steady his body and spat out a mouthful of blood foam.

At the Sanctuary realm, it is difficult to determine the winner in a one-on-one fight. If it is many-on-one, even the strongest Sanctuary will eventually be exhausted, not to mention that these high-level Zergs are extremely powerful and cannot be killed at all.

The battle between the two sides has lasted for a whole day. Xu Xizhao is the second powerful saint in the human world after Marshal Yunshang. She is now over 400 years old. She knows that she is not as strong as Marshal Yunshang and her life is almost at its end. She can live to 500 years at most.

Faced with such a high-intensity and high-consumption battle, she gradually showed signs of decline, and felt that the Insect King, who exuded a ferocious and violent aura, was even more powerful than Marshal Yunshang.

The Zerg's special talent enables him to move instantly and launch sneak attacks without warning. They tried to attack the vortex, but the energy injected into it seemed to be swallowed by a black hole and could not cause any damage to it.

The worm vortex stopped there, unscrupulously absorbing the energy dissipated in the universe, and continuously feeding it back to the five Zerg sanctuaries, allowing them to remain in their prime.

Before Su He could respond, an all-round spiral sound wave attack was already heading towards the two of them.

Xu Xizhao decisively opened the energy shield and shouted to Su He and the others, "We can't delay this any longer. These bugs are simply invincible! We can't all die here!"

"Go find Shi Jianxia and pull the defense line back to the capital system! As long as she's here, these bugs won't dare to go to the surface! As long as she's here, even if humanity only has one last planet left, there will still be a day when we can make a comeback!"

"I'll drag you here! Go!"

The pace of the Zerg's full-scale invasion is unstoppable, and there is no absolutely safe planet in the universe.

When Pei Qin heard her words, the lightning balls around him expanded instantly and attacked the butterfly-faced man who was trying to sneak attack him!

In the terrifying explosion, he swung out the long thunder blade and stabbed it hard at the butterfly-faced man who was hit by the thunder ball. The sharp blade pierced its heart and pierced it through in an instant.

If it were a human sanctuary, he would be seriously injured if not dead, but the butterfly-faced man seemed to feel no pain. The corners of his mouth raised in a strange arc, as if mocking Pei Qin's useless work.

Invisible energy covered the injured part of the body, and the chest with a big hole in it quickly closed up and gradually returned to its original state.

Such a strange situation makes one's scalp tingle, and one can't help but suspect that it is not a real creature at all, but a collection of energy.

Pei Qin had done this countless times and knew that he could not kill the opponent at all. While the opponent's wounds were healing, he would rush to help Xu Xizhao and Su He.

Just as he turned around, he saw a shadow appear behind Xu Xizhao, who was trying his best to resist the sonic attack of the butterfly-faced man.

Lu's five fingers turned into claws and pierced through her chest, pinched the still beating heart, and pulled it out without hesitation!

Xu Xizhao's blood vessels burst and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He opened his eyes wide in disbelief, released the force on his hands, and the energy shield disappeared.

The sound wave hit her without any pause, tearing her into pieces in an instant, and finally turning into a blood mist that drifted in the universe.

Su He was closest to her and blocked the attack of another butterfly-faced man. Before he could catch his breath, he saw the scene of her death. His pupils dilated rapidly and his eyes were filled with red bloodshot.

He shouted loudly, swung the giant energy sword and was about to kill Lu, who was holding Xu Xizhao's still beating heart and observing it with interest as if he had discovered something interesting.

Pei Qin pursed his lips tightly, knowing that the victim was irreversible and there was no chance of winning in a three-on-five situation. He decisively stopped him and, together with He Shu, who had broken an arm in the high-intensity battle, sped towards the direction of Nan Tengxing.

Lu finally waited for the opportunity to catch the turtle in the jar, how could he let them leave?

Without his giving any orders, the four Zerg sanctuaries had already opened the vortex, blocking the way of Pei Qin and others.

In front of the advanced Zerg that possess vortexes that can travel through space at will, no matter how fast they are, it is just a struggle before death.

Looking at the three people who were surrounded, Lu slowly walked out of his own vortex, looking casually at the furious Su He, the silent Pei Qin, and the pale He Shu due to the broken hand.

"Since you didn't plan to run away from the beginning, why are you running now? Wouldn't it be better to stay and die with your companions?" He showed the three of them the heart that was gradually stopping beating in the palm of his hand, raised the corners of his lips wantonly, and slowly tightened his five fingers.

Phew!

Xu Xizhao's heart turned into a ball of blood foam and was crushed into cosmic dust by the energy field surrounding Lu.

Su He could no longer suppress his inner anger. He pushed away Pei Qin who was pulling him, gathered his energy, and swung out a hundred-meter-long green energy giant sword, smashing it hard at Lu who looked very content.

He just fluttered his wings lightly and disappeared from the spot. The giant energy knife missed and immediately swept towards the butterfly-faced people next to him, cutting one of them in half in the blink of an eye!

The other three butterfly-faced people raised their lips and chuckled softly, as if mocking him for always doing useless work.

Sure enough, the butterfly-faced man who was cut in half twisted his body and returned to his original appearance.

Lu didn't want to waste any more time, so he opened his mouth and made a sound wave that Pei Qin and others couldn't understand.

The next second, the three butterfly-faced men launched another fierce attack!

Pei Qin was about to take action when He Shu said, "Pei Qin, there are only three of us left now. You're the only one who's not injured, and you're the most likely to escape. Go! Leave this to me and Su He!"

As she finished speaking, the shadow of a giant tree emerged from behind her. The swaying branches made a slight rustling sound, and the green light illuminated the dim universe.

A divine light enveloped Pei Qin, and in an instant, it sent him thousands of light years away!

Lu narrowed his eyes slightly, not expecting that she had such a method.

They were just two trapped beasts. He handed the place over to the four butterfly-faced men and immediately opened the insect vortex to chase Pei Qin!

There were only two opponents who were not very challenging left, and the butterfly-faced people were obviously not very happy. But when they thought that they could chase the escaped little mouse after getting rid of them, they were ready to launch a more fierce attack!

Su He was repelled by the pervasive sound waves and spat out blood again. Another butterfly-faced man repeated the same trick and appeared silently behind him, trying to imitate Lu's previous move and grab the heart out of his chest with his bare hands.

The slender five fingers had already stretched out, and the slightly long nails scratched Su He's precarious energy shield. The warning of death came to Su He's brain. He turned around with all his strength to block the attack, but his tired body still made him a step slower.

The sharp nails pressed into his skin, and the butterfly-faced man slowly raised the corners of his lips, and his strange compound eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty dark light, as if he had already seen the scene of the human in front of him having his heart crushed by him.

At this critical moment, a black and gold crack appeared in the universe. Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and in an instant it was shortened by tens of thousands of light years.

A girl in a crimson battle robe walked out of the crack, and the black and gold energy flowed like water waves, dragging a long trail of light and shadow behind her.

The five slender white fingers grasped the butterfly-faced man's wrist and twisted it to the side without mercy.
