Chapter 227 Heaven and Destruction, the Prelude to the Decisive Battle
Listening to Li Bo's words, Yin Shan smiled cunningly: "Commander-in-Chief Li, you have lived here for such a long time, you see..."
Li Bo said speechlessly, "Don't forget, I'm a dead man to the outside world! And I've changed my appearance too. Even if I go out with a loud speaker and shout that I'm Li Bo, no one will believe me. The team members will even have to sympathize with their base leader for having a mental illness!"
Yin Shan was heartbroken. "Old Li, just to avoid working, you're even saying you're mentally ill!? You've changed! The serious Commander-in-Chief Li who worked for the country and the people is gone!"
Li Bo said shamelessly: "Yes, he is gone, he is dead! But since you want to lure the snake out of its hole, you have to be prepared.
I really think you're overthinking it. The moment most people see Sima Feng open the door, he'll be nailed to the pillar of shame. No one would be able to resist. Even if the military base can't bring themselves to do it, what about the Cangshan team? What about the veterans at Spark Base? And those at Xinlong Base?
Also, we don’t actually know how many Taotie there are, but based on the plan you heard, the number of people in this large-scale attack may be far greater than the number of mutants in the attack.
Can we really handle this now?"
Yin Shan said, "Killing them isn't the problem. The key is how many there are. I don't know. If the Taotie are endless, even tens of millions, we'll be exhausted to death!"
Li Bo pondered for a moment and said, "How long will it take for your superpowers to fully recover after you've used them all?"
Yin Shan smiled bitterly and said, "I understand what you mean, but the Spark Base is too large... There are only four level 100 psychics right now, and each of them needs to guard one side of the city wall."
As he spoke, Yin Shan's eyes lit up: "I was wrong. Although Taotie has thick skin and can absorb natural energy to attack, they can't deal with cold weapons! As long as we have enough cold weapon traps, we can do it!
Okay, okay, I'll go make the arrangements now. I'll ask Qin Lei to keep a close eye on Sima Feng."
After saying that, he left in a hurry. Li Bo shook his head and smiled bitterly. He was not worried about the strength of Yin Shan and others. It was just that the principle that many ants can kill an elephant was too simple to understand.
Yin Shan closed the door and went to find his father: "Dad! I have an idea. At night, I will lay a large number of spikes outside the base. As soon as the Taotie come, the spikes will directly eliminate most of them!"
Yin Zhiwen said, "But the Taotie behind can also step on the corpses in front to attack. If there are really tens of millions of them, how big will your ground spikes be... Do you have enough points?"
Yin Shan thought for a moment and talked with Yin Zhiwen for three hours before finally finalizing the plan. That night, Yin Shan sneaked out of the base and began to create her defense system.
Ten days later, Yin Shan finally completed the laying of her trap as planned, and quietly left the base with her three best friends.
On the other side, Guan Yunhua seemed to have finally "waited" for Yin Shan's news, and notified Qin Lei and others to pick up Sima Feng and others to enter the base.
As soon as Sima Feng and others entered the base, they felt the low pressure in the Spark Base. There was no other reason. Except for some people in the military base, no one seemed to really welcome them, the outsiders.
Anyone could feel the rejection they felt from the other people at the Spark Base.
They are not allowed to enter farms, plantations, hatcheries and other places related to basic people's livelihood.
As for the water source, that’s a joke. They have been in the base for more than half a month and still haven’t figured out where the water for the Spark Base comes from!
For this reason, Qin Lei, Zhu Rui and others were extremely "angry" and even had a big quarrel with Chen Feng, Zhao Jian and others. They felt that they were excluding dissidents and did not take Yin Shan's orders seriously at all.
But this legendary Major General Yin has never appeared.
The two big bosses, Guan Yunhua and Yin Zhiwen, simply hid themselves, under the pretext of improving their supernatural powers.
Su Xin is even less seen, spending every day in the laboratory.
Secretary He already knew Yin Shan's plan, so he enthusiastically assigned patrol duties to Sima Feng and the others. However, he rejected their application to attend the Academy of Supernatural Powers.
The reasons for rejection were well-founded: further training required Yin Shan's consent, she was not at the base now, the original students were not allowed to graduate, and the list of new students had not been sent to him.
However, their anxious behavior still made those who knew them at the military base feel that something was wrong.
They were too impatient, and seemed eager to gain a deeper understanding of all matters concerning the Spark Base. Their words were even meant to guide them to talk about the Spark Base's defense measures and so on.
Yin Shan, who knew the inside of the base like the back of her hand, complained helplessly to her best friend: "Should I praise these people or scold them?"
Hou Ting was speechless and said, "What? My base is all very smart and it doesn't suit you? If you want to lure a snake out of its hole, you have to make the snake believe it first, right?
"This information is too easy to find out. Do you really think Sima Feng is a fool?"
Wang Lu said, "Okay, my godfather and godmother know what's going on. Especially my godfather, he's a thousand-year-old fox. It's more than enough for him to play Sima Feng. Don't forget, the master of playing tricks is also at the base!"
Ji Yang: "That's right, but it's not right for us to just wander around outside now, right? It's been over half a month, and we haven't encountered a single level 100 mutant beast. How are Wang Lu and I supposed to level up?"
Yin Shan rolled his eyes: "You two are stupid, who can you blame?"
Several people were playing around when suddenly they all covered their heads at the same time.
Just now, the space deep in their souls seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer.
A strange emotion surged in his heart. Something flashed across Yin Shan's eyes, and he murmured, "Kunlun Mountain can no longer suppress Taotie!"
When he turned around, he saw that except Hou Ting, Wang Lu and Ji Yang were all unconscious.
Hou Ting asked, "What's going on? How are your godparents doing? Do you want to go back and check on them?"
Yin Shan nodded and said, "Take them into the space, I'll go back and take a look."
They found Guan Yunhua first, but it turned out that Guan Yunhua was fine and was watching TV series with Yin Zhiwen.
Yin Shan went to find Su Xin again, and it turned out that this guy also fainted in the laboratory.
Except for Zhou Yun, all the members of the Cangshan team that Yin Shan had relied on, as well as Zhao Jian, Qin Lei, Li Xin, Zhou Xue, Li Xiaojiang, and Li Bo, fell into a coma.
Yin Zhiwen didn't know what was going on, but he still asked Zhou Yun to quickly take all these people to the base hospital, and asked Zhou Yun to prohibit anyone from visiting them after a simple examination.
After all, aside from the four who had broken through to level 100, everyone Yin Shan relied on was unconscious. This was incredibly strange! Furthermore, the Kunlun Mountain restriction being lifted at this point was incredibly unusual. As a spirit weapon, and one on the side of Heaven, Dragon Head couldn't possibly lie to them.
Yin Shan said: "Perhaps, it's not as bad as we imagined..."
As a result, on the 10th day after everyone was unconscious, Taotie suddenly attacked.
Sima Feng was even shocked. He hadn't sent out a signal, so how could the Taotie possibly come? Were they planning to break their promise? No, that was impossible. If the Taotie had the strength to do that, there would be no need to go through so much trouble to find them.
Soon, the attacking Taotie army gave Sima Feng an answer: these Taotie were different from the ones he had seen before, they were white!
Yin Shan hid in his own space and kept looking for information about Taotie, and finally came to the conclusion: these Taotie were ancient forces suppressed at the bottom of Kunlun Mountain.
Leaving the space with a solemn expression, Yin Shan said, "These things may be more difficult to deal with than we imagined, but judging by the number of invaders, we should be able to repel them without relying on my rear deployment."
After saying that, Yin Shan found a small path, avoided everyone's sight, and headed towards the direction where the Taotie was attacking.
Yin Zhiwen lowered his voice and said angrily, "You better take care of your daughter! There's no way we can disappear in front of everyone to help her now! What if one of these Taotie is worth a hundred of the ones outside? What will she do?"
Guan Yunhua: ....Ha! When you're disobedient, you're my daughter. When you're tough, you're your daughter!
Yin Shan called Hou Ting and began to assign tasks: "Control them, then kill them with super powers!"
Hou Ting was surprised and asked, "Ah? Are you sure? Can't these things absorb our superpowers and transform them into the next attack?"
Yin Shan smiled, "Yes, they can absorb superpowers, but they cannot absorb the energy of heaven and earth. A level 100 superpower user mobilizes the energy of heaven and earth to attack, and the superpowers they use are minimal. After absorbing the superpowers, the remaining energy of heaven and earth is enough to kill them!
You try it, I'm worried about where to find these things to experiment with! Oh, don't use your field! "
Hou Ting curled her lips, looked at the oncoming Taotie army, and slapped the ground with both hands. The next moment, the movements of the Taotie army all became slow.
Hou Ting then stood up, arms outstretched. Wisps of fire spread from her palms, and sparks flashed in her eyes. In just a few breaths, her pupils transformed into the shape of flames. The next moment, the entire area became blazing.
He put his hands together and flames burst out of the ground like magma breaking through the earth.
With just one strike, more than half of the invading Taotie were killed. It wasn't because Hou Ting's attack range was too small, but because Yin Shan had specifically warned her before she attacked: Don't kill them all!
Seeing this, Yin Shan excitedly waved his fist and said, "As expected! If I hadn't told you to leave some, could you have killed them all?"
Hou Ting looked relaxed: "I can kill everyone within 5 kilometers around me!"
Yin Shan said, "If that's the case, let's retreat. There are only over 10,000 of them left. We have to let Sima Feng and the others see the world!"
After that, he sent a message to his father, telling him about the battle just now, and then warned him: "Don't kill too easily, it's not bad to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger occasionally!"
Yin Zhiwen understood immediately: "As expected of my daughter! She is so smart!"
Guan Yunhua: See, when she’s smart, she’s like his daughter!
Sure enough, faced with the sudden attack of the Taotie army and the loss of their main force, Yin Zhiwen and Guan Yunhua were quite overwhelmed by the scattered attacks of the Taotie.
Fortunately, the mutated grass army outside the city wall was very powerful, slowing down the Taotie's offensive pace and giving everyone a chance to catch their breath.
Yin Zhiwen and Guan Yunhua personally went down the city wall and finally "laborious"ly destroyed the Taotie army.
Sima Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief: It seems that the information he got was not wrong. There was only one level 100 mutant, Yin Shan, in the Spark Base. Although others could kill Taotie, it would take too much time to kill a single Taotie.
It seems that as long as there is a million-level Taotie army, it will be enough while Yin Shan is not in the base.
What's more, the main force is now all unconscious. Zhou Yun even thinks that they have been infected with some ancient virus and does not allow any visitors at all for fear that the virus will spread.
Even Zhou Yun himself didn't dare to go in easily.
After killing the Taotie, Yin Zhiwen said weakly, "Zhu Rui, take the men to clean up the battlefield. Yunhua and I will rest for a while. Stay alert. If there are any more Taotie troops attacking, be sure to notify me in time!"
Sima Feng wanted to send a signal immediately to let Taotie lead the team to destroy the Spark Base, but now the people in the Spark Base were guarding against them like thieves, and his people had no chance to get close to the gate.
Not to mention getting the chance to guard the gate.
But there was still a good opportunity. Killing ten thousand Taotie was a bit of a stretch, so what about fifty thousand? As long as they kept draining the Spark Base's resources, keeping their members overwhelmed, and when there was no one left, wouldn't guarding the gate be easy?
The strange thing is that the Spark Base is built too big. Daily defense work requires at least 30,000 psychics to make the four walls watertight.
Field doctor Liang Ling naturally did not miss the calculation in Sima Feng's eyes, and the team members who had just participated were indeed injured.
But Guan Yunhua still had a trick up his sleeve. They were all minor injuries, but they looked quite serious.
The people at the Spark Base who witnessed Guan Yunhua and Yin Zhiwen fighting "with all their might" finally realized: Sima Feng and others were not trustworthy, and the couple was putting on an act.
After all, the story of Guan Yunhua easily killing the Taotie seemed to be right in front of everyone's eyes. There were only ten thousand Taotie, and Yin Zhiwen didn't even need to take any action. Guan Yunhua could solve the problem with just a wave of his hand, but he actually fought for so long.
Even the wolves only look brave...
Liang Ling arranged for the injured team members to be taken to the base hospital. Zhou Yun said helplessly, "Why are there so many more injured?"
Liang Ling explained, "This thing has a thick skin and can absorb energy to counterattack. I don't know where the base commander has gone. He hasn't come back for so long. If there are a few more waves, I'm afraid Aunt Guan and the others won't be able to withstand it."
How are Chen Feng and the others doing?"
Zhou Yun sighed and said, "It's still the same. Even his breathing is getting weaker and weaker."
The latter sentence was obviously nonsense, but Sima Feng inexplicably believed it. It was simply because Zhou Yun's expression was so solemn, and with a hint of sadness.
Liang Ling said, "Mr. Sima, thank you for your help! The base hospital is crowded, please leave!"
Sima Feng didn't think much about it, accepted the thanks with peace of mind, and turned away.
