Chapter 468 Several Movements...
The cold light from the monitor screen cast flickering shadows on the man's face as he stared at the group of figures on the screen.
"They really are... a bunch of unlovable... ants..." His deep voice betrayed no emotion, as if he were merely commenting on a group of troublesome insects.
He walked slowly to the leather sofa, sat down gracefully, crossed his legs, and lightly tapped the armrest with his fingertip: "Have all the things underneath been moved back?"
Brother Ren immediately bowed, his posture humble: "The last batch was just delivered back tonight..."
All that's left over is the food you asked us to prepare for 'that person' in advance.
"Have you replaced all the missing parts?" The boss tapped his fingers lightly on the sofa armrest...
"They've all been replaced, and there are even a few left over according to the numbers..." Blade's head drooped even lower.
"You need to bring the food you prepared back," the owner said calmly.
Blade immediately understood: [It doesn't matter if the Rock Base is destroyed; those experimental subjects can be captured again at any time, but...]
He leaned down even further, his body already hunched over: "Okay, boss. You get some rest, I'll take some men over there right now."
"Those ants jumping around too happily are really... an eyesore!" the boss suddenly said softly, his gaze still fixed on the screen.
A cold glint flashed in Blade's eyes: "I'll handle this together."
The man on the sofa stopped responding, stood up, straightened his non-existent creases in his clothes, and walked straight upstairs, showing no further interest in the ongoing massacre on the screen.
Only after the man's figure disappeared did Brother Ren leave the room, still bowing, and gently close the door behind him.
Just as the door closed, something unexpected happened on the monitor screen.
A plant is expanding and growing at an astonishing rate, its emerald green vines thrashing wildly like a giant python awakening.
Unfortunately, the two did not witness this scene.
......
At the entrance to the Rock Base, on a high watchtower, several guards were already terrified by the continuous explosions and towering flames inside the base.
With the central area engulfed in flames, and even the command post building collapsing in the inferno, the instinct for survival was fully ignited...
"Run! Run! The base is finished..."
Someone shouted hoarsely, and the guards on the watchtower practically tumbled down, frantically pulling open the gate.
The thirty Rock-type ability users guarding the gate wished they had more legs, scrambling to squeeze through the half-open door and fleeing desperately into the darkness outside the base...
They had barely run a hundred meters when they ran headlong into a menacing group—it was Si Sheng and his Starlight Base team.
Jin Xiao, with his sharp eyes, immediately recognized the rock-colored clothing worn by the fleeing people by the light of the distant fire.
"Ah Sheng, he looks like a fish that escaped from the rock and fled in panic."
"I'm not blind! Nor am I mentally challenged!" Si Sheng replied expressionlessly, his eyes sweeping over the group of panicked fugitives without the slightest pity, uttering just two words.
"Let's do it!"
The Starburst Ability Users brought by Si Sheng quickly dispersed, forming a semi-encirclement that surrounded the thirty or so Rock Guards who were trying to escape.
The supernatural light flickered faintly in the darkness...
The Rock Power users surrounded in the middle turned pale, and some of them knelt down with a thud, pleading with tears streaming down their faces.
"Brothers, brothers! We're just gatekeepers, we've never done anything wrong!"
"Please, have some mercy, just ignore us!"
"We are all low-level ability users. In a place like Rock, we just want to make a living. We have no choice! Spare us!"
"No choice? If a rock has no choice, its grave must be overgrown with weeds by now!" Pepper stepped forward, his voice trembling slightly with anger.
Lin Shuang: "If you have no choice, you can help Pan Shi capture our Starry Sky Base members? If you have no choice, you can follow them in burning, killing, looting, and committing all sorts of evil deeds?"
Those you killed, did they have a choice?! You people of Rock deserve to be torn to pieces!
Pepper, his eyes bloodshot as he thought of his sister, cried out, "We have no choice today! You lot—you're all going to die!"
Si Sheng: "Leave no one alive!"
The members of Starlight Base heard the explosion coming from Rock tonight and saw the raging fire inside Rock Base that turned the night sky red, which aroused their anger.
They wanted to witness the destruction of this wicked 'neighbor' with their own eyes, so when Si Sheng arrived at the meeting place, the number of superhumans had nearly doubled compared to the daytime.
At this moment, the fate of the more than one hundred Starburst Ability Users filled with hatred was a foregone conclusion when facing the thirty or so Rock Ability Users in front of them.
The battle was almost entirely a one-sided massacre...
After quickly clearing the battlefield, Si Sheng said, "Aunt Chunhua, you and the lower-level ability users stay at the gate to set up a defensive line and prevent any escapees. The rest of you, come inside with me!"
......
The central area of the Rock Base has been completely turned into a living hell.
The 'trash' falling from the sky transformed into icicles from a macaw, and the relentless barrage of icicles pinned the rock-powered ability user who crawled out of the 'trash heap' to the ground...
Meanwhile, the vines had already gained absolute control over the entire central area.
Thick vines meander among the broken walls and ruins, spreading along the "city wall" of the rocky base.
Thin, thorny vines covered the air and ground, and any slight movement would immediately trigger their strangling action, turning the entire battlefield into a living predator trap...
With the help of the intricate network of resources, Lu Nange and her group made rapid progress.
The wind blades precisely reaped lives, and lightning exploded in the crowd, creating dazzling sparks...
With the base commander gone, the number of Rock-type ability users, now only under the command of a few Level 4 captains, is rapidly decreasing.
Behind a pile of ruins a little distance from the main battlefield, dozens of superhumans were huddled together.
This was originally a supply warehouse area. The heavy concrete structure did not completely collapse during the series of explosions. Combined with the defensive shield hastily constructed by earth-type and metal-type ability users, it barely formed a temporary hiding place.
"Captain Xiao, what do we do now?"
Team Leader Xiao: "Isn't the lab door open yet?"
"Report to Captain Xiao... The explosion triggered the highest level of automatic defense system, and all security doors have been forcibly locked from the inside!"
Only the base commander can open it now! We can't get in, and Liang and the others trapped inside... can't get out either!
The technician, who was trying various methods at the door, shook his head and said this. The other two ability users who were trying to use their metal-based powers to open the door also shook their heads...
"Damn it!" A hot-tempered superhuman slammed his fist into the wall next to him.
"The level 5 ability users are all trapped down there! And the ones resisting outside are all below level 4... How the hell are we supposed to fight them?"
"How can we fight? Going out would just be like feeding the enemy... a free kill!"
