Chapter 84 Six Wings
With his head and hands gone, the four-winged priest's body froze.
Qi An dared not delay for even a moment, and used his bone and flesh regeneration to squeeze out the bone spurs from his flesh.
She unleashed another barrage of arrows upon the four-winged priest!
But this time she didn't try to let her tentacles grow inside the other person's body in an attempt to devour them—that would be too slow.
One end of her tentacles pierced into the tall, muscular body of the four-winged priest, while the other end was embedded in the ground.
The four-winged priest is like a bound spirit sealed by countless chains, but only temporarily. Even without its head, it can still struggle fiercely!
The chains swayed, and the four-winged priest let out a dying roar! Qi An was unable to get close for a moment!
But there was no need for him to get close. Qi An simply whispered into the earpiece, "Xiao Fu! Hurry!"
Several thin, bright blue ribbons of light rushed in from all directions, forming a dense geometric array around the four-winged priest.
Qi An's "Ten Thousand Arrows" were embedded in one of the four-winged priests' bodies, branching out along its surface and connecting to form a dense layer, tightly wrapping it to prevent a situation like the one in South China... where the priest killed the "Weaver Girl" in retaliation.
The blue stars turned red, a loud "buzz" rang out, and the laser array was about to be activated!
Command posts at all levels, including Mao Anlin at the far-off North 1 Base, and all the humans who could witness this scene, frowned and clenched their fists!
The laser array lit up, the laser array was successfully triggered, the laser array... failed to achieve the intended killing effect!
Qi An paused for a moment, looked up, and saw a milky white water sphere suddenly floating in the air.
The water balloon swayed, seemingly about to crash down or burst open and then fall again.
Just half a minute before the laser array lit up, a shower of milky white water droplets fell!
Those water droplets looked like a downpour, but they were active and seemed to have a navigation system, all heading straight for the large drone!
Several water droplets enveloped a large drone, failing to block the laser but successfully changing its direction.
The laser array was still activated, but the laser cage that could originally cut the four-winged priest into pieces of braised pork either merged into a large number of lines or simply bypassed the target, cutting the four-winged priest into less than 10 pieces!
If the target wasn't so big, we probably wouldn't even be able to cut 10 pieces!
Just as Qi An looked up, the second water sphere in the sky exploded!
Qi An retreated swiftly!
But the water droplets splashed out by the water ball were not aimed at her; they simply enveloped the large drone that had already fired its laser and entered energy-saving mode.
Sparks flew everywhere, and Tan Fu roared through Qi An's earpiece: "It's all broken!"
Tan Fu's anger was tinged with a heavy sense of unease and a hint of panic: [Another one's here! Is it Qiu Yunmeng?]
Qi An saw another large-winged figure in the air, besides the water sphere.
The water sphere floated around that figure.
Qi An didn't know Qiu Yunmeng, but the wind had died down and the rain was about to start, with many reconnaissance planes scattered over the base.
Although Tan Fu asked the question, he saw the figure before Qi An did.
It stood in the air, its face highly distorted, making it difficult to discern its original appearance. However, its figure, short hair, six large wings, and the bright light comparable to a large moon were undoubtedly Qiu Yunmeng!
With the cyberattack interrupted, the worms responsible for it will certainly have to come out and fight.
Qi An urged them earlier because he sensed the approach of another massive source of pollution.
But it was too late. Qiu Yunmeng, like... that one in South China, has ranged attack capabilities!
The tentacles that Qi An had used to bind the four-winged priest were subjected to the laser attack equally, and most of them were already severed.
Although she dodged when the second water droplet exploded, she extended new tentacles and relentlessly pursued and killed the dying four-winged priest!
Qiu Yunmeng glanced down coldly and indifferently, and the water spheres around her burst one after another. Some water droplets formed a "water curtain" to envelop the "body" of the four-winged priest, while others splashed onto Qi An's tentacles.
Qi An's tentacles instantly became like sponges soaked in water, so heavy that they could not be lifted or used!
Qi An's expression was extremely solemn. Qiu Yunmeng seemed to smirk coldly at his solemnity and uttered a disgusted remark to him:
"It's understandable that she didn't want to change, but you're truly despicable, a shameless thief!"
This insult seems to overlap with the one uttered by the four-winged priest earlier.
Qi An paused for a moment, but she pondered that the subject of Qiu Yunmeng's first sentence, "she," might refer to Tan Fu.
Tan Fu was unwilling to undergo the transformation in order to save her life, but Qi An was forced to undergo the transformation, which made her a thief.
Qi An's heart skipped a beat, and a surge of anger rose within him!
If it had happened half an hour earlier, when she was still under attack from the base's artillery, she would have blown up immediately upon hearing this!
She is different from humans and different from fallen insects. She is not accepted by humans and is also seen as a "shameless thief" by fallen insects!
In this vast world, only she was abandoned in a cold, isolated crevice, with no one to rely on.
But Qi An is very calm now.
There are still 30 million people on the mainland, and probably 99.99% of them will fear her, hate her, and doubt her.
But at least 0.01% of people love her, accept her, or at least are grateful to her.
Her current stance is her own choice, and she will bear all the consequences.
Of course, now is the time to bear the consequences.
Qi An's current perception range has expanded to a radius of 20 kilometers, within which several groups of Fallen Insects have appeared.
Although it is called a large army, its total number is not large; it is just that there are a lot of Hui insects!
Qiu Yunmeng's original attack plan was: First, to launch a cyberattack to destroy the main base's infrastructure and then massacre the Wei 3 base.
The second step is to release the newly born Fallen Insects from Satellite Base 3 to intercept reinforcements from various satellite bases.
Meanwhile, it and the four-winged priests took advantage of the main base's weak defenses to wreak havoc.
With two Ash Priests, one distracting the enemy and the other focusing on destroying towers, the two insects will be polluting the base while working. Presumably, in just half an hour, tens of thousands of Fallen Insects will appear in the base!
Cyberattacks require stealth, so the real tens of thousands of worms outside are probably still far away.
This was to avoid being discovered by the base's long-range patrol teams, which would cause the base to enter a state of martial law ahead of schedule.
What Qi An sensed were several elite assault teams.
They are few in number, highly skilled, and excellent at concealment, lurking nearby.
It should take several hours for the main force to arrive. During these hours, these elite assault teams will work with the two Ash Priests to create more and more worms and chaos in the base, the more chaotic the better!
If they're lucky, the new base might be destroyed before the rest of the army even arrives!
With the destruction of the newborn base, Qiu Yunmeng will surely lead this million-strong army of fallen insects southward in a mighty march, aiming for North 1!
The mainland was in danger then!
Because of Qi An's unexpected intervention, which provided a boost, the first step almost became a resounding success.
However, Qi An's situation actually prompted Tan Fu to go online earlier and enter the new student base's intranet ahead of time, helping them clean up the system and intercept data in advance.
Qi An's matter was resolved too quickly; her decision to take a stand, and then her actions, were all too swift.
The two girls' "guardian angels," or as Mao Anlin said, the "protectors of humanity" duo, are quite formidable.
They are both their strength and their weakness! It's them again this time!
Qiu Yunmeng's gaze was as cold as ice, and the milky white liquid became restless. The round water spheres turned into different colored caltrops, which pierced the belly of the night sky.
Now is the time to bear the consequences.
Qi An thought that Qiu Yunmeng and her elite assault team had arrived. The four-winged priests had not been completely killed, but the "Weaver Girl's" large drones were mostly destroyed.
The battles to come may be fierce, but there is no turning back.
