Chapter 14



The chaotic magnetic zone is a very special area with a chaotic magnetic field. Spaceships cannot pass through it. If you want to pass through it, you can only walk there.

It's eerie and damp here, with tall stone forests everywhere. There is only one large creature, called the wall ant, the only mutant species that survived the invasion of the Zerg hundreds of years ago. It is extremely powerful, far beyond the physical fitness of ordinary humans, and its full-grown form is generally about two to three meters long.

Although they are very dangerous, they are only found in the chaotic magnetic zone. People from the Federation and the Northwest Star Region have sent people to encircle and suppress this place, but unfortunately the wall ants have never been exterminated.

In order to avoid heavy casualties among their own people, the leaders of Xinghui, Huihe and other forces only sent a part of the elites, and the rest remained in the northwest star field to guard the house and prevent their nest from being wiped out.

The Chaos Magnetic Zone is a long and deep canyon with few places to hide, but the cliffs on both sides are excellent hiding places.

"Boss, the First Legion has already entered the canyon entrance," the scout on the cliff jumped into the cave, "It is estimated that it will take another one to two hours to reach the middle of the canyon entrance."

Inside the cave was a brutally killed wall ant, with dark green blood pooling under the body.

Next to it stood a man covered in a gray robe, with a protruding back, a strange figure, and a soft voice that was indistinguishable between male and female.

"Tell the people in the other two caves to be ready and grab as much as they can."

The scout hesitated and asked, "Boss, haven't we in Gray River always stayed out of these disputes? This time...?"

A man in gray robe, his age and face are unknown, he is the boss of Gray River Lian Yao, the all-powerful intelligence chief of the Northwest Star Region. A piece of intelligence can be sold for a fortune. It is said that Gray River can be seen in every star region of the Federation.

Lian Yao said softly, "Show Xinghui some color."

Scout: "But Xinghui..."

"I know," Lian Yao smiled, "If they want to steal something from the territory of Huihe, they have to carefully consider the source of their intelligence in the future. The leader of Xinghui is a wise man."

In another cliff cave in the distance.

"Second Master, Huihe is here too this time. I wonder what his plan is."

"Since they are here, they are naturally targeting the military forces," said the second in command. "There are so many people from the Northwest Star Region, so we are not afraid of one more person like Huihe. The Northwest Star Region is a whole, and the first in command has ordered that Xinghui will only go for the largest share of military forces."

"clear!"

The lingering gray fog permeates the canyon all year round. There are gray stone forests, wet sand, and countless caves where wall ants live on the cliffs on both sides.

The wall ant nests occupied by humans were quiet, while the ones normally inhabited by these large, killer mutant ants could be heard making restless grinding sounds.

Occasionally one or two would poke their heads out of the cave, their huge red eyes looking like rubies frozen on the cliff.

Alge didn't bring many people with him. Although Shoubing hadn't awakened, he was a reserve S-class evolver after all. After a slight facial modification, he also came along to build up his courage.

Lan Xia led the team and selected a hundred people, all of whom were proven reliable after assessment. Except for Lan Xia, these people all wore a small vest made of alloy over their clothes.

The chaotic magnetic field interfered with the signal, making long-distance communication impossible. They all gathered in a cave on the cliff. Fortunately, there were no wall ants in the cave.

Arge: "Teacher, can you sense how many people are here?"

"I can sense a rough idea. There are quite a lot of people. My perception range is between one thousand meters and one thousand five hundred meters. I can't sense anything farther," Lan Xia said.

S-level psychic evolvers are able to sense the surrounding environment, which is a great advantage for Xiguang.

Lan Xia: “It’s not easy to start.”

"We definitely can't get ahead, but the major forces in the Northwest Star Region might be waiting for someone to take the initiative and take advantage of the situation," Alger thought for a moment, "There's a rumor that Elansno came in person to transport the arms this time."

Lan Xia glanced at Shou Bing who was silent beside him and whispered, "Whether he comes or not, this batch of arms is not so easy to obtain. The First Legion dared to let it pass through this chaotic magnetic area, which means they must have made full preparations."

He walked to the cave entrance, his mental power flashed slightly in his eyes, and he leaned against the wall, looking far away at the canyon exit that was obscured by gray mist.

There is only one entrance to the chaotic magnetic zone, but two exits. Looking down from a high place, the entire long canyon looks like a deep eye.

"We are waiting for the right opportunity. They will definitely attack before the transport team gets close to the exit. We must not confront them head-on."

They happened to be located right next to the exit, so no matter which exit the transport team chose, they would respond immediately.

——

Entrance to the canyon.

Dozens of long rows of black armed vehicles were lined up.

In addition to the almost inaudible smell of gunpowder, there was also an indescribable fishy smell on the car body.

Gong Du was in the middle vehicle, which was not transporting arms but a batch of more valuable large-scale experimental instruments.

The personal escort was a temporary decision, so not many people knew about it. Miyato sat calmly in the spacious seat at the back.

Originally, there were no such comfortable living conditions in the armored vehicle. Kang Quan cleaned up and transformed the place for him overnight.

He also had some stomach-warming water kept at 40°C. It tasted like natural sweet plant juice, and no one knew what was in it.

Of course, there was only warm water. The rest of the snacks were strictly guarded by the dog. Unless Dr. Kane said in person that his stomach was in good condition recently and he could eat some, he generally had no chance to eat them.

While Gong Du was complaining to Xiao Guangtuan that Kang Quan was like a male mother, he held the cup and said, "Nothing was left out, right?"

Kang Quan looked back from the front passenger seat, "Don't worry, Admiral. Every car has been coated with a repellent."

Repellent was developed by a very talented researcher when the Zerg invaded the Federation hundreds of years ago. It can emit a smell that scares the Zerg and played a significant role on the battlefield. Unfortunately, the Zerg disappeared later and the method of preparing this repellent was gradually lost.

Currently, only repellents of more than one grade can be used.

"Tell the other fleets to be careful, this delivery may not be smooth."

Kang Dog nodded: "I understand."

This place is close to the northwest star region, so it would be a miracle if things went smoothly.

"Especially the caves on both sides of the cliffs, adjutant, don't you think it's too quiet here?" Gong Du's mouth curled up slightly, "Unless they sense the breath of death of their own kind, the wall ants...would never be so obedient."

Kang Dog: “You mean?”

Miyato: "Get ready for the fight."

The chaotic magnetic area blocks most of the signals, but armored vehicles all use the same system, so the transmission of information between vehicles is not affected.

Gong Du raised his eyelids and smiled: "No point. If I show up, they will probably be more cautious. There will be more people who come back to assassinate me than rob me, so the command will be handed over to you for the time being."

"Adjutant, you are the one I trust the most in the entire First Legion. Don't let me down. Do you understand?"

Kang Quan's heartbeat paused for a moment, and he quickly lowered his head: "...Yes."

Those dark purple eyes were so deep that at that moment, he almost thought that the admiral had discovered the extremely obscure thoughts in his mind.

Others only knew that arms were important, but he thought the large experimental equipment that the vehicle was carrying was more important. Because when combined, it was an instrument used to extract the geo-energy of the C9 star region... It was something that was clearly stated in the chilling plan of the Qing Dynasty.

C9 is Kang Quan's home, where his only remaining friends and family are. Whether out of selfish desire or out of the subtle empathy of being a human being, he does not want C9 to become another lifeless Ice City.

Now he has two choices. One is to pretend that he has never seen the purge plan and be a responsible adjutant. The other is to secretly dispose of the experimental equipment in this chaotic magnetic area.

But the latter is tantamount to betrayal of the admiral.

No matter which choice he makes, he will suffer.

The convoy moved forward slowly. The closer it got to the middle, the thicker the gray fog became. Five meters away, it was impossible to tell whether it was a person or an object.

The detectors mounted on the armed vehicles had already been activated, and the convoy moved forward slowly and steadily, becoming increasingly quiet.

Slowly, scarlet eyes appeared on the steep cliffs on both sides.

The hot steam from the teacup dissipated into the air.

Gong Du's eyes, which had been closed till now, slowly opened.

“I am here.”

Bang! Bang! Bang——!

The crazy explosions were deafening. The wall ants were frightened and jumped down from the holes in the cliffs on both sides. They were so dense that hundreds of kilograms of weight were smashed to pieces by the gun barrels that shot out rapidly from both sides of the vehicle before they could land on the armored vehicles!

The sticky green blood with a pungent stench fell like rain.

Kang Quan lowered his eyes and shouted: "Meet the enemy——"

Woo——

The armored vehicle's shield opened on all sides, and as it accelerated forward, its gun barrels on both sides powerfully cleared out the buzzing wall ants around it.

Gong Du drank the warm sweet water slowly.

"Attack!"

No one knew which side started the fight first, but the canyon, which was extremely quiet just a moment ago, was suddenly filled with deafening shouts of killing. Countless homemade grenades, small star guns, and explosive bottles that could dissolve energy shields all turned into dense flames and rushed towards the shields on the armored vehicles!

Thousands of figures, along with huge wall ants, glided down from the caves on both sides of the cliffs. Behind the alloy vests they wore, a pair of light black iron wings spread out, as thin as cicada wings, making a buzzing sound as they flew.

Transform into feather armor!

Kang Quan thought that the Northwestern Star Region was determined to get their hands on this batch of arms.

Feather armor is a common item in top armies, but it is absolutely rare in a barbaric and driven place like the Northwest Star Region. Now that so many feather armors have appeared at once, I'm afraid that the forces that took action have really invested a lot of money.

There are countless hooks on everyone's wrist.

They were all waiting to use hooks to hook away the weapons once the protective cover was broken and the ammunition inside was exposed.

What was even worse was that their soldiers were too cautious to attack, as they had to guard the weapons behind them. In addition, they had to move forward at full speed to clear the way, so they had to defend more than they attacked.

Kang Quan took a look at the damage value of the energy shields and found that the energy shields of two armored vehicles were on the verge of disappearing.

Why are there so many people from the Northwest Star Region this time? !

And it seems that this is only the first wave of enemies that can't help but attack in the front line. There are probably more powerful ones to come.

He turned around and glanced at the admiral, who still showed no sign of nervousness.

The man standing on a high place with his hands behind his back calmly observed the battle situation below. The people behind him were also wearing feather armor with star-shaped totems embroidered on their clothes.

"Second Commander, we didn't find any trace of Elansno. The information we received may not be accurate. He may not have come this time." said the subordinate behind him.

The second in charge was a burly man. Hearing this, he said, "Elansno is an arrogant lunatic. If he were here, those who are trying to stand out would probably have no chance to make trouble."

"What about us?"

The Second Chief: "Rob!"

Yujie swooped down quickly and spread his wings instantly!

whoosh whoosh whoosh!

"Boss Lian Yao, Xinghui's people have taken action!"

The spies from Gray River came hurriedly to report, and everyone in the cave immediately looked at the strange, tall and thin figure hidden in the robe.

"Remember, our primary goal this time is to cause trouble for Xinghui, and secondly to seize the arms. Be careful."

"yes!"

Lian Yao smiled and said, "Let's go!"

Fifteen minutes later, the mostly destroyed convoy was approaching the exit.

At the same time, the attacks became more and more fierce, but what made people angry was that those armored vehicles whose shields were about to be damaged had managed to hold on until now, and they were always just that little bit short.

Until the moment of exit——

Boom!

The protective shields of three or two armored vehicles shattered.

Human corpses and wall ant remains were scattered everywhere, and those who were still alive were all excited, throwing the hooks in their hands down!

The densely packed hooks are like a huge bell-shaped net in the sky, making it impossible to escape.

A smiling, teasing voice slowly came from the tallest stone pillar in the middle of the exit.

"Oh, such enthusiasm, and there are several old acquaintances here, it's really overwhelming."

The sound was gentle and pleasant, but it was like a piece of extremely cold ice falling into boiling water, freezing the person into an ice sculpture in an instant.

The second in command of Xinghui froze in mid-air, then suddenly turned around.

A man stood on the steep and sharp stone pillar, with Martin boots wrapped up to his slender calves, a black military cloak, silver hair, a mask, purple eyes, and a half-smile on the corner of his mouth.

The aura around him was as cold as a bloody sword that had been unsheathed and covered in frost.

Ellan Snow bowed slightly: "Everyone, you are polite."

"I'm here to kill you."
