Chapter 366 Two Fireworks
Just as Cheng Sinian and Luo Zhenzhen were racking their brains to delay time, Yu Qingchuan at the north gate of the base was flying madly towards the dense forest in the northeast with the crystal.
Thanks to the thug's psychic abilities, Yu Qingchuan did manage to escape the mercenaries' pursuit.
But even so, the mercenaries were still searching for him and were also moving towards the northeast.
Yu Qingchuan felt a little depressed.
These mercenaries were obviously not from City G, but they spoke in a righteous manner just now, which made Yu Qingchuan very confused.
Yu Qingchuan's intuition told him that something was wrong, but he really had no other choice.
After all, it’s too late to change the route now.
His physical strength had not yet fully recovered, and when he was absorbing the crystal core, he was surrounded by the group of mercenaries, forcing him to switch forms in advance.
But even so, with his current physical strength, flying hundreds of miles should not be a problem before he can no longer maintain his mutant form.
Cheng Sinian, ah Cheng Sinian, you must hold on...
--
If Cheng Sinian could hear Yu Qingchuan’s prayer now, he would definitely shout to the sky: If you can do it, come on!
At this time, Cheng Sinian's firewall had been released three times, but due to the advantage in numbers, many alien species still successfully broke through Cheng Sinian's firewall.
Cheng Sinian's front line retreated again and again, and was about to retreat to the edge of the protective net.
"Anian, you take a rest for a while, I'll do it..." Luo Zhenzhen rested for a while, and after feeling that her energy had recovered a little, she stood up again with the help of the protective net.
These mercenaries and aliens are all enhanced types, and can hardly attack in the protective net, so they can only rely on her and Cheng Sinian to hold on.
Although Wang Zha also came with them, he had already been sent to the east by Cheng Sinian.
This time, the alien wave did not only attack from the main gate, but also many aliens attacked from the east and west sides.
The west was originally Feng Xing's base camp. After learning that there was an alien attack, Feng Xing immediately took a lot of mercenaries and rushed back.
But on the east side, due to Xie Ping'an's absence, many mercenaries of the Eastern Legion stayed at the main gate, and almost no one went back to defend. Only a part of the mercenary hunting team sent by Mu Guan was there, so in comparison, the defense capability was obviously much weaker than that of the west side.
So when Cheng Sinian learned that Yan Zijin and Xiang Heng had been sent to the east side, he immediately asked Wang Zha to rush over.
But with Wang Zha's departure, Cheng Sinian and Luo Zhenzhen lost a great fighting force.
There is a shortage of aliens in various places in the base now, but the number of aliens is increasing instead of decreasing. Everyone has been in a state of high tension for a long time.
If the protective net is breached again at this time, today's battle can basically be declared a failure.
Luo Zhenzhen looked at the aliens on both sides that were about to touch the protective net again, gritted her teeth, and forced herself to release her supernatural power once again.
But it was obvious that this time her ability lasted less than half as long as last time.
Luo Zhenzhen felt dizzy again, but this time she subconsciously held on to the protective net and did not let herself fall.
Cheng Sinian's face turned pale, and his hands began to tremble slightly. He noticed Luo Zhenzhen's reluctance, so he stretched out his hands to support Luo Zhenzhen's body and whispered, "Zhenzhen, don't be so stubborn... Go inside and rest for a while... Be obedient..."
The large-scale release of superpowers consumes too much of their energy. Even if they keep absorbing crystal cores, the amount may still not be enough to cover the expenditure.
Aliens have no sense of pain, and as long as their cervical vertebrae or skull are not cut off or burned, they can still move.
But the aliens are different. Aliens without energy are like lambs to be slaughtered in front of alien species, fragile and weak.
"No." Luo Zhenzhen suppressed her dizziness and grabbed Cheng Sinian's hand, "I won't go... Wherever you are, I'll be there..."
Seeing this, Mu Guan from the inner gate quickly came out with dozens of mercenaries, "Brother Cheng, you should rest for a while."
Although they haven't fully recovered yet, they are in much better condition after the respite just now, and should be able to hold on for a while.
"Are there any more bombs?" Cheng Sinian pursed his lips, neither agreeing nor refusing. He just stood there, looking at the alien species that was still approaching in front of him, and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, but not many." Mu Guan replied immediately, "I have sent people back to the military area to move them, but we are short of manpower now, so it may take some time."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Sinian's expression became even gloomier.
With trembling hands, he gently touched the inside of his right arm, but after thinking about it, he decided not to send a distress signal to Qiao Yu.
After such a long period of silence, Jiang Zhan and Qiao Yu must have sensed something was wrong. They are probably on their way to rescue Yu Qingchuan.
He couldn't cause trouble for them at this critical juncture, so he had to grit his teeth and hold on for a while longer.
Cheng Sinian sighed slightly, raised his head, and let the rain wash over his face.
Ah Chuan, Ah Chuan... If we can't lure the alien species away, they'll probably meet underground...
I don’t know if Yu Qingchuan really heard Cheng Sinian’s thoughts. Just when everyone was ready to fight a desperate battle with the alien army, the aliens suddenly slowed down their attack. After pausing for a few seconds, they suddenly burst into an even more violent roar.
Afterwards, they gradually retreated and began to advance rapidly to the northeast.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this.
"What happened? Did the aliens retreat?"
"They're heading west! What's going on?"
"We succeeded?! We defended the base?!"
“…”
Although the strangers were confused, they were also very excited.
Cheng Sinian's expression also relaxed slightly, and then, using the cover of his down jacket, he quickly took out a signal firework from the space and launched it into the sky.
"Brother Cheng, was it your teammates who led the aliens away?" Mu Guan couldn't help but ask when he saw this.
"Yeah, it should be." Cheng Sinian nodded and was just about to help Luo Zhenzhen take a rest, but suddenly another firework appeared in the sky.
But unlike the yellow fireworks that Cheng Sinian had just released, this firework was red.
Cheng Sinian's face tensed again in an instant.
Northeast. It's Yu Qingchuan!
Something really happened to Yu Qingchuan!
Seeing that the fireworks were the same as the ones Yu Qingchuan had just released, only the color was different, Mu Guan asked doubtfully, "Brother Cheng, is this... a response from your teammates?"
Cheng Sinian did not answer Mu Guan, but just looked at Luo Zhenzhen.
Both of them had heavy expressions.
Red fireworks.
It represents the highest danger signal.
Its meaning is: Danger! Go!
Once red fireworks are emitted, it means...
Yu Qingchuan has made up his mind to die.
