Chapter 290 Stalemate
"Don't worry, when it comes to life and death, you have to fight even if you don't want to."
"Speaking of which, the women of the He family are truly amazing! Their fighting ability is stronger than most men."
"Who says it's not? It would be nice if I could marry one."
"A mecha as a dowry?" the man teased.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I just admire you. The days ahead will definitely be harder than they are now. If your partner is strong and independent, you can be together for a long time."
The man put away his smile and looked thoughtful.
After a few days, the number of mutant beasts decreased significantly, achieving a temporary victory.
However, the good times did not last long. After a few days, the number of mutant beasts, which had been decreasing, suddenly increased. Everyone had no choice but to join the battle.
The mutant beast was obviously much higher in level. After being lost for a short time, it quickly returned to normal.
The formation was ineffective against mutant beasts, and more and more people were attacked. The lucky ones survived, while the unlucky ones were killed directly.
Qian Zedong had no choice but to destroy the formation. Once this kind of trap was set up, it could not be withdrawn.
The fog dissipated, and groups of mutant beasts rushed towards them, forming a black mass. Even with the tigers and spiders to support them, they were gradually defeated.
Helpless, I can only retreat temporarily.
However, misfortunes never come alone.
Birds and beasts suddenly appeared from the sky, attacking the team like energy cannonballs. Humans were always at a disadvantage against aerial beasts, and as expected, the team was interrupted after just a few rounds.
Chu Xu sat in the command room, making arrangements for the battle plan. He first ordered the low-ranking personnel outside to withdraw, and then merged the troops into two large teams. One team was commanded by Xie Yu to deal with the birds and beasts in the sky.
A team led by Uncle Dong deals with the mutant beasts on the ground.
The specific coordination and cooperation can be done with just a few simple words. We are all familiar partners and can understand each other without words, just a glance.
After Chu Xu finished making the arrangements, he immediately sent a distress signal to Emperor Star.
The people in the team took the defensive talisman that Yun Xiang gave them and ran towards the city gate.
The improved defensive talisman can only block one attack, and its combat power is very terrifying. Fortunately, everyone has a substitute talisman made of Wanxiang wood that Yun wants to use to save their lives at the critical moment.
But there was only one, and Yun wanted to bring back only enough Wanxiang wood for each person.
Those below the intermediate level, including the intermediate awakened ones and psychics, fled back to the city walls in a panic to fight, leaving the advanced ones to continue fighting on the spot.
They must kill the mutant beasts that approach the city wall. Once they break through, the Falling Star will no longer exist.
Yun wanted to jump onto the tiger's back and fly into the air to fight. Birds are the spider's natural enemies and were taken back to the city by Zhao Tianshuo. The spider was annoyed, but there was nothing he could do.
"Snap!" Yun wanted to grab the tiger's neck suddenly, but the tiger flapped its wings quickly and knocked the two mutant birds approaching him to the ground.
As soon as he landed, he was trampled to death by a group of mutant beasts on the ground.
Yun wanted to release the tiger's neck, stand firm, and attack again, aiming the arrow only at the wings, making sure to shoot it down with one shot.
Tong You placed the newly built electric grid above the city wall to prevent birds and beasts from entering the safe zone. The birds and beasts were very powerful, so he didn't dare to set up dormant silk threads to ensure that none of them could enter.
It is naturally extremely energy-consuming.
Soon a blind bird or beast came crashing over.
"Zizila..." The birds and beasts were electrocuted, their muscles trembled, they flapped their wings stiffly, and flew away from the power grid.
Everyone looked horrified, but fortunately it only flapped twice and still fell from the air.
Everyone was alarmed for a false alarm, but they did not dare to be careless.
One after another, they rushed towards the power grid without caring about their lives. The power grid attacked almost non-stop. The energy of the people controlling the power grid was consumed very quickly, and they had to constantly replenish energy liquid.
But soon the energy in his body began to riot, and there was no choice but to replace him with someone else.
The people who retreated back into the city climbed up the city wall and, under the command of Xie Yu, used supernatural powers and energy weapons to attack the birds and beasts flying towards the power grid, trying to reduce the pressure on the power grid.
Tengchong rushed out of the safe zone and kept channeling the supernatural powers of the animal bombs he made. Bang bang, two could kill one.
Yes, this effect was unexpected. It was even more powerful than when he used it on Lianjiao Star. This showed that the improvement was on the right track. Once the details were finalized, mass production could begin.
Tengchong wiped the sweat from his head and, under the cover of the awakened ones, kept casting animals to fight.
The Aurora Ray was the first to be mass-produced. Qian Zedong selected a team of awakened people with good physical flexibility, good flexibility, and fast speed to equip the Aurora Ray.
After a round, he found that most of them were female awakeners. He had no prejudice against women and directly let them equip themselves and go into battle.
Lin Ziyu's Eighth Combat Team reacted normally, but the He family's female hunting team was extremely excited. There were rumors outside that Minister Qian hated women, so they thought there was no hope.
Sure enough, the rumors weren't to be believed. Aside from my family, this was the first time I'd been treated so equally. I was deeply moved and grateful to Minister Qian for giving them the opportunity to prove themselves.
"Be safe and come back alive!"
"receive!"
Facts have proved that, no matter how good their level is, women are no worse than men in combat. They can move, attack and dodge accurately.
At the critical moment, Tengchong did not forget to scare the people around him, "I think I can do it too."
If you go up there you will only be fed. The person next to him silently added, it’s not like you haven’t tried it before,
Seeing that no one responded to him, Tengchong had no self-awareness at all. "What do you think?"
"Walk!"
Tengchong stood up without hesitation and followed the others to move to another position.
You Hao directly released his upgraded Jinxiu No. 1, No. 2, and the newly developed No. 3 and No. 4.
His mastery of fighter aircraft is unmatched. Currently, the Type 1 and Type 2 have reached mass production. Since the Type 3 and Type 4 have yet to see combat, they're perfect for testing.
The fighter jets are indeed powerful, and the newly added energy heavy artillery can kill five or six at a time, but due to distance limitations, after a few times, the birds and beasts began to not gather in groups, which seems a bit of a waste of resources.
It's time to change the energy bombs, but because there are too many birds and beasts, they are consumed very quickly and need to be replenished constantly.
Jinxiu No. 3 and No. 4 are more powerful, with energy bombs increased to 24 rows and heavy artillery increased to four at a time, but the problem still exists of distance, and they cannot be fired openly.
Then Chu Xu broadcast four more planes for them, making a total of eight battle planes.
Jin Jiamin did not participate in the battle this time, but was refining medicine in the rear. Because there were many injured people and the demand for medicine was great, and he had strong medicine-refining skills, it was most appropriate for him to stay here.
Xie Yu no longer concealed his ability to control his special abilities. He directly controlled the birds and beasts to block their way, and for a moment the birds and beasts began to fight in a melee.
He deliberately picked different kinds of birds and beasts so that they would be more likely to clash.
After everyone's joint efforts, the battle was finally stalemated. After the initial chaos, the team gradually regained order.
Seeing this, Yun Xiang withdrew from the battle, leaving Hu to continue fighting, while she returned to the rear to continue making talismans. At such a fast rate of consumption, their inventory would not last long.
For more than ten days in a row, the situation was tense. The territory they had conquered was snatched back by the strange beasts that arrived later before they could even leave the place.
Of course, they couldn't get close to the city wall.
