After Gu Mingyue and her companion disinfected and took away all the data and equipment from the research institute, they finally left the experimental center building.
Before leaving, they even blew up the empty room they had just looted, leaving the monsters with nowhere to hide and level up.
At this moment, the battle outside the research institute had entered a fierce stage, with towering artillery fire blasting deep craters into the area.
Xu Lanyue led the members of Hope Base to set up high-frequency sonic cannons and aim them at the Level 3 winged monsters that were diving with their wings spread.
As soon as you see a level 3 winged membranous monster being affected by the high-frequency sonic cannon and falling from the sky, immediately run over and chop off its head with a machete.
The members of the Bright Moon Base were also very brave, wielding flamethrowers and burning any monsters they encountered.
But these monsters seemed to sense everyone's fear of the research institute, and they all tentatively attacked. Once they found that the firepower was concentrated, they immediately ran back into the research institute building to hide and begin to devour and evolve.
"The boss is out!" The members of the Mingyue Base shouted excitedly when they saw Gu Mingyue and Xinghe come out of the research institute.
"Our weapons can now bombard the experimental building!"
Gu Mingyue controlled a level three winged membranous monster to land beside the group. Seeing the excited looks on their faces, she understood that these people were determined to destroy the monster's nest.
He immediately ordered the artillery fire to be directed at the research institute and begin bombarding it.
Before Xu Lan arrived, Jiang Huaisheng had approved three drone fighter jets for her.
She had wanted to use it for a long time, and now that she heard that Gu Mingyue and the other person had come out of the research institute and brought out all the virus samples, serums and other things, she had no more worries.
The operators were immediately instructed to begin directing the fighter jets in aerial combat.
Loud bangs echoed through the remote experimental building as missiles were launched from a drone.
The Level 3 winged monsters hovering above the experimental building saw a large, metal-clad creature dropping bombs from the sky in an attempt to destroy their nest, and they bared their four large, protruding fangs.
It unfolded its two-meter-long wing membrane and pounced onto the drone, intending to take this metal behemoth down with it.
Just like when they attacked human bases before, the sacrifice of a small group can ensure the continuation of their race; it is an instinct ingrained in their very being.
Their dark eyes were fixed on the drone's windshield. Once they smashed the window and pulled out the 'food' inside, this metal behemoth would crash.
What a fragile piece of metal!
A smug glint flashed in the eyes of the Level 3 Membrane Monster, which then charged straight at the drone. Several other Level 3 Membrane Monsters with the same idea aimed at the drone's turbofan engine.
However, their self-sacrificing attack was doomed to fail.
Researchers at Hope Base have combined high-frequency sonic cannons with drones to intercept these Level 3 winged monsters when they try to approach the drones.
These technological marvels of human ingenuity instantly unleashed their power.
High-frequency explosions, inaudible to humans, rang out in the ears of the Level 3 Winged Membrane Monsters. Before these monsters could even get close, the sound shattered their ears, causing their brains to churn, and they all fell into freefall.
These unmanned combat aircraft have once again become the masters of the skies, their missiles targeting every monster that attempts to approach or flee.
With this new type of fighter jet, Gu Mingyue hardly needed to lift a finger; all these monsters were taken down.
Gu Mingyue looked on with envy at the unmanned combat aircraft launching missiles in the sky.
Such a good thing, I wish the Bright Moon Base could have a few of these too.
With the addition of the new unmanned combat aircraft, the second humanoid monster's lair was cleared out in just two days.
After the level two and three monster cores were distributed, Gu Mingyue held the level four cores in her hand, feeling quite hesitant.
Xu Lanyue knew that Gu Mingyue and her companion had obtained these level-four crystal cores without contributing any effort, so she didn't covet them. She simply inquired about the characteristics of the level-four humanoid monster.
"Holy crap! A level four humanoid monster that can actually drill through a five-centimeter-thick metal wall. These monsters are getting more and more monstrous as they evolve."
Xu Lanyue's eyes widened in shock, and then she moved closer to Gu Mingyue and the other person to examine them.
"That monster's attack power was so strong, I hope none of the spikes hit you? If you have any wounds, let me know. Hopefully, there are still many virus research experts in the base, and headquarters has stockpiled a lot of virus serum and vaccines..."
Seeing her worried expression, Gu Mingyue quickly waved her hand with a smile, "We're fine. You forgot that Xinghe is a level four space ability user. Those monster spikes can't tear through his defenses."
Hearing this, Xu Lanyue finally felt relieved and let out a long sigh of relief.
Taking the opportunity, Gu Mingyue asked, "Are these three fighter jets newly developed weapons by Hope Base? Can they be purchased with crystal cores?"
Xu Lanyue looked at Gu Mingyue and shook her head at her, saying, "Little sister Gu, it's not that we're stingy, but headquarters doesn't produce many of these. Manager Jiang only managed to get five from headquarters because he won the first attack on the humanoid monster's lair."
"Forget about these new unmanned combat aircraft for now. Why don't you trade some high-frequency sonic cannons and helicopters with us using level 4 crystal cores? Your people can just sit in those rocket launchers and they'll be just as effective."
Xu Lanyue sincerely considered Gu Mingyue's situation and then spoke.
After listening, Gu Mingyue thought it over carefully, then hugged her, patted her back and laughed loudly, "Sister Xu, how did you come up with such a good idea? You really are my sister."
Gu Mingyue was so excited that she almost hugged and kissed Xu Lanyue.
Xu Lanyue had just evolved to the early stage of level three, and even a light tap from Gu Mingyue, who was at the mid-stage of level four, was almost too much for her to withstand.
The skin, which had been tanned to a wheat color, turned bright red due to lack of oxygen.
In the end, it was Xinghe who pulled the agitated Gu Mingyue away, thus saving her life.
The harvest yielded a total of thirty-six early-stage level four crystal cores. These crystal cores were of little use to Gu Mingyue, but other low-level ability users were eager to acquire them.
Gu Mingyue left behind twenty early-stage level four crystal cores, intending to distribute them as year-end bonuses to Shen Ming and Su Xiaoyu.
The remaining sixteen level-four crystal cores, along with the recently acquired level-two crystal cores, were all packed up and sent to Hope Base in exchange for heavy weapons.
Xu Lanyue returned to Hope Base with a full load of crystal cores and the good news of breaking through the second humanoid monster's lair to report the good news.
Gu Mingyue then dispatched Shen Ming, the young boy, along with Zhang Sheng and others, to lead a team to the Hope Base to bring back new weapons.
She and Xinghe, along with the members who had just finished the battle, returned to the Bright Moon Base to send the virus samples to the newly built laboratory for research.
As soon as the two led their team back to the Bright Moon Base, they saw everyone standing behind the gate with worried expressions, and they were not very enthusiastic when they heard the good news of the victory.
