Alarms were sounding from all directions along the border of the Oasis base.
The alarm frenzy that swept across half of Xuanwu Base was finally repeated at Oasis Base.
Fang Qingdai stood in the space looking out, her expression extremely solemn.
She really didn't expect that the Xuanwu Base had a super team of real artificial superhumans with as many as 20,000 to 30,000 people!
And unlike the team that was wiped out a few days ago, that team also consisted of artificial superhumans with multiple superhuman abilities, but their actual strength in the fight was within Fang Qingdai and the others' expectations.
The team at Oasis Base had undergone multiple energy boosts during the night and had also depleted a significant amount of the opponent's energy beforehand, so they were able to cope.
But this time, Fang Qingdai was able to sense the differences between these teams with just a slight sweep of her spiritual power.
They are stronger!
The fact that the superpowers are more stable indicates that the transplanted superpowers have been well integrated, and that each superpower user has a carefully crafted combination of superpowers.
For example, if the main ability is fire-based, and wood-based abilities are later transplanted, the wood helps the fire burn, doubling the destructive power.
Previously, you could see many superpowers mixed and matched at will, but this batch of teams all have complementary attributes, making them incredibly powerful!
With just this one group of people, how could the 20,000 to 30,000 ordinary people in Fang Qingdai's space possibly fight against them?
"Base Commander?"
Uncle Lu stood beside Fang Qingdai, asking for her instructions.
Fang Qingdai took a deep breath: "Let's do it!"
Within the territory of the Oasis Base, the roar of combat power resounded.
When the Xuanwu soldiers on the border looked up, they were astonished to find that hundreds of fighter jets were attacking!
Xuanwu's team was instantly thrown into chaos: "What's going on? How could there be so many fighter jets at the Oasis Base?"
"Air raid! Shield! Shield, activate it quickly!"
"The team should assemble and take cover, don't scatter!"
The forces that had almost completely surrounded the oasis border were quickly reorganized and formed several groups.
"Boom!" The bombardment followed immediately, but it was almost entirely blocked by the defensive shield, and few people were injured.
Fang Qingdai seized the opportunity and unleashed her full mental power, directly attacking the energy core of a defensive shield, causing the shield to short-circuit.
The instant the energy shield disappeared, more than a dozen combat aircraft circled over, dropping bombs like rain!
The crowd was like ants, powerless to resist. Even super-powered artificial superhumans could not physically withstand the bombardment of firearms!
Xuanwu's team was filled with shock and fear. They glanced at the hundreds of fighter jets overhead and a sudden urge to retreat arose in their hearts!
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat ten kilometers! Retreat away from the oasis border base defense line!"
There was no other way but for Xuanwu's troops to temporarily withdraw.
Fang Qingdai breathed a sigh of relief. Watching the Xuanwu Base's team retreat like a receding tide, she collapsed to the ground, her forehead covered in large beads of sweat.
"Base Commander! **Quickly, restore the Base Commander's health!"
Fully armed, he approached Fang Qingdai and restored some of her energy before exclaiming in surprise, "Base Commander, your creation out of thin air is amazing!"
Where can Oasis Base find hundreds of fighter jets?
Only about ten of them were real; the rest were mental illusions created by Fang Qingdai using her mental power to distract the enemy team in an instant, creating a mirage-like mental illusion.
This operation consumes more mental energy than killing someone directly. In just over ten minutes, Fang Qingdai's mental energy was almost completely exhausted!
Fortunately, the bombing by those dozen or so fighter jets was enough to deter the enemy and successfully stabilize the border defense line.
Fang Qingdai rested for a short while, then immediately forced herself to stand up: "Let's move out of here, before the other side realizes what's happening."
Nearly 30,000 ordinary people emerged from the space, all dressed in decent combat uniforms and protective suits. At first glance, they were not much different from the elite troops at the Oasis Base.
However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the combat uniforms of the ordinary soldiers are extremely tattered, resembling discarded junk from various bases. They look decent, but offer no protection whatsoever.
These were all discarded items that Fang Qingdai had previously collected from various bases. There wasn't enough time to trace them all back, so she could only make do with them for now and put on a show.
The troops from Xuanwu Base had just retreated ten kilometers away when several high-ranking commanders gathered together, tensely discussing countermeasures.
"What's going on? Where did Oasis Base get so many combat troops?"
Thinking of the troops that had just been bombed by concentrated fire, with four or five thousand casualties in the blink of an eye, if the enemy's hundreds of fighter jets were to start bombing, how could their troops withstand it!
One of the commanders frowned in thought: "I feel something's not right."
"Even the Azure Dragon Base can't muster that many fighter jets. No, even if you combine the combat power of all the bases in the wasteland, it would barely reach that number!"
"Shouldn't they have the materials to build so many fighter jets?"
The underdevelopment of industries in wastelands is largely due to resource scarcity.
Even before the apocalypse, Earth was already experiencing resource shortages. After the wasteland, 90% of Earth became inaccessible, and resources were even scarcer in the remaining wasteland.
They didn't believe that the Oasis base could find enough resources to manufacture fighter jets!
Another commander scratched his head in frustration: "But the fact is they can produce it! What are our spies doing? So many fighter jets, just parking them would take up a huge space, and they couldn't find anything?"
The commander who raised the question still frowned: "No, no, something must be wrong. Let me think about it."
After pondering for a long time, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He opened his eyes wide and looked up sharply: "Those fighter jets are fake!"
"What?"
"I saw it with my own eyes, how could the combat capability of so many aircraft be faked? And what about our team members who were killed in the bombing, were they also faking their deaths?"
"No, what I mean is, only about ten of them are the numbers we have in our intelligence. The others were probably Qingdai who used her mental power to interfere and mislead our vision!"
The others were astonished upon hearing this, but upon closer reflection, they gradually realized the problem.
Yes, if more than a hundred fighter jets bombed at the same time, Xuanwu's forces would suffer at least half of their losses.
Moreover, they were at high altitude. If the troops at Xuanwu Base were to retreat, the enemy should have followed closely behind. During the retreat, it would be inconvenient to support the defensive shield, making it easier to bomb them.
Furthermore, while hundreds of fighter jets circled in the sky, in retrospect, only a dozen or so actually carried out the bombing!
After realizing what had happened, everyone turned pale.
"I knew it! That Qingdai from the Oasis Base was a menace! No wonder Commander Li wanted to eliminate her even when he filled in Black Hole Photon 6!"
"Hmph, what a pity. Not only did we fail to kill them, we also managed to have Black Hole Photon 6 moved to our doorstep..."
"Alright, enough talk. Gather the troops and launch a counterattack!"
