After a half-day of intense pursuit, the eight fastest aliens stopped almost simultaneously and gathered together.
They all sensed the numerous creatures lurking around them.
Their eyes are as sharp as eagles, scanning every corner around them.
The leader of the aliens smirked, revealing a cold smile: "Heh, so there's someone covering our retreat. In that case, stop hiding and get out here!"
However, all that responded to them was deathly silence.
Unlike T2 and his group, Wuyun Taxue and Zulong, along with other creatures, did not choose to stay in the stronghold to confront the enemy head-on. Instead, they quietly circled around to rebuild a solid defensive line.
"It seems we've been discovered after all..." Zu Long's expression was extremely solemn, his brows furrowed tightly.
Faced with this group of incredibly powerful aliens, he knew that this battle might be his last.
"There's no need to worry too much; this is to be expected."
Their strength far surpasses ours, so it's not surprising that they could detect our presence.
Fortunately, T2 has successfully held off the enemy for about eight hours. We just need to hold out for another four hours, and that will be enough. "Wu Yun Ta Xue calmly analyzed, his words revealing composure and confidence.
Before the words were even finished, hundreds of dazzling streaks of light, like a meteor shower, streaked across the sky and shot towards the group of aliens.
In an instant, the entire space was illuminated by dazzling light, and a thrilling life-or-death struggle began.
"Such a weak attack, what can it do to me?" The aliens' hideous and twisted faces showed disdain. Their scarlet eyes were fixed on the slowly flying streaks of light, as if mocking their overestimation of their own strength.
The streaks of light drifted slowly through the air like colorful ribbons, moving at a speed that was like a snail's crawl for the agile aliens.
The aliens easily dodged to the side, avoiding all the streaks of light.
However, just as they were secretly pleased with themselves, the streams of light suddenly emitted a low and long humming sound.
Accompanied by a buzzing sound, streams of strange energy rapidly spread outwards from the center of the light.
In the blink of an eye, this energy enveloped all the aliens like an invisible net.
The aliens suddenly felt their bodies sink, and their originally agile movements became sluggish. Then they were horrified to find that most of the power in their bodies could not be used!
Taking advantage of this excellent opportunity, Wuyun Taxue and his companions launched a fierce attack without hesitation.
In an instant, the light of various powerful skills illuminated the entire battlefield.
The aliens appeared flustered in the face of the sudden and fierce attack, but it was only an initial panic and did not have much effect.
This is why the king revealed the opponent's various tactics to his subordinates; in the face of overwhelming power, no tactic is of any use.
Time passed by, and after four hours of fierce fighting, the battlefield finally quieted down.
Looking around, one could see dozens of mangled bodies lying haphazardly on the ground, blood staining large areas of the land red, and a strong stench of blood permeating the air.
Amidst this horrific scene, only Wuyun Taxue and Zulong still possessed a trace of life.
The two leaned against each other, their exhausted bodies trembling slightly.
Wu Yunta Xue struggled to lift his head, gazing at the ravaged battlefield before him. His voice hoarse, he said, "Including our four hours, a full twelve hours have passed… half a day has gone by… Hehehe…"
Upon hearing this, Zulong nodded with difficulty and replied, "Yes...we did it...but was it really worth it?" Zulong was in extremely poor condition at the moment. The giant dragon he had contracted had died in battle, leaving only half of its body and its scarred head.
In truth, they weren't sure if such sacrifices were worthwhile, but at that critical juncture of life and death, they had no other choice but to fight with all their might without hesitation.
Two enormous, ferocious-looking aliens slowly walked to the side of Wuyun Taxue and Zulong.
Their cold, merciless gazes swept over the two wounded creatures before them, a disdainful smile playing on their lips: "Haha, look at this poor little kitten and lowly cockroach, managing to hold us off for a full four hours! I must say, you did give us a little surprise, but so what? In the end, there's only one fate awaiting you and all those other lower creatures—death! And it's only a matter of time."
Hearing these mocking words, Zulong trembled with rage. He glared at the arrogant alien in front of him and said through gritted teeth, "Well, you really infuriate me!"
I really want to slap you hard across the face and let you taste the feeling of being humiliated!
However, before he could finish speaking, Zu Long, due to the severity of his injuries, spat out a mouthful of blood, then collapsed limply to the ground, taking his last breath.
"Zu Long..." Seeing Zu Long lose his life like this, Wu Yun Taxue felt as if her heart was being torn apart, and she softly called out her companion's name.
At this moment, Wu Yun Taxue was also seriously injured, with blood constantly seeping from his wounds, but fortunately, it was not yet life-threatening.
Recalling the fierce battle with the aliens, he thought to himself: Judging from what these aliens said earlier, it is clear that they are unaware that powerful human reinforcements are rushing to their aid.
Before this, they had speculated that the mysterious king might be able to hear or even see everything happening here, but now the facts were clear: the king was not among the aliens.
Thinking of this, Wu Yun Taxue couldn't help but feel a deep sense of disappointment.
This indirectly proves that the ruler possesses terrifying strength far exceeding that of these aliens; otherwise, it would be impossible for these ferocious aliens to obey him so readily.
Before those hideous and bizarre aliens could make a move, Wuyun Taxue resolutely chose to end his own life!
If it were to be corrupted by the terrifying polluting power emanating from these aliens and thus mutate into an alien itself, then its original precious status as a vessel for the extraordinary would instantly transform into a revered token that inspires fear.
In this way, even if they have the opportunity to be resurrected in the future, they can only exist in the world in the form of an alien.
