Chapter 143 The warden is being pursued by a top-tier prisoner? (39)
Xie Liuyan handled the situation relatively easily, his silver mech moving effortlessly through the low-level Zerg.
But for some reason, in no time at all, all the Zerg stopped moving in place.
He didn't believe they were standing there willingly as live targets. "0526, help me investigate whether an advanced Zerg has appeared?"
The higher Zerg have absolute command over these lower worker Zerg.
0526 immediately replied, "Received, Lord God!"
It was initially just a guess, but after killing a few low-level Zerg, the remaining large number of Zerg suddenly started moving.
They charged forward at an even faster speed, and as if they had gained sentience, they were able to coordinate their attacks, know how to launch sneak attacks from behind, provide cover, and engage in a war of attrition.
The purpose is undoubtedly to deplete the mech's fuel in this way.
Xie Liuyan's eyes narrowed, just as 0526's voice rang in his mind:
"My Lord God, you guessed correctly. A high-level insectoid has appeared less than a few light-years away from the desolate star. In addition, there are a large number of insectoids."
If there are only Zerg without warships, it means that the Zerg are not taking the attack on the barren planet very seriously.
They thought that sending a single high-level Zerg and a large number of low-level Zerg would be enough to break through the Federation's defenses.
After all, the advanced Zerg have terrifyingly strong physical abilities. While ordinary laser cannons are effective against them, their self-healing ability is very strong.
If the enemy's vital points, the head and heart, are not thoroughly attacked, they will always have the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
"0526, what are the chances of me piloting a mech to break through the low-level Zerg's defenses and then taking care of that Zerg?"
0526 stammered, which was unusual. Although the Lord God was very powerful, he could easily solve the problem at hand with a wisp of divine power.
However, this is a small world, and the powerful strength of the Supreme God cannot be used.
One wrong move and this tiny world, which hasn't been around for long, could be in serious trouble.
"My Lord God, you are currently in a small world, where divine power is not permitted. You can only use power within the limits of this world to deal with the advanced insectoids, so there is only a 50% chance."
Moreover, even that 50% chance would be too much for the mecha piloted by the Supreme God, and might even harm the Supreme God's body in this world.
"Tsk, trouble."
As a supreme god, Xie Liuyan has always possessed the power to annihilate a small world with a mere wave of his hand. He never imagined he would face such severe limitations within a small world.
Therefore, his originally relaxed brows furrowed slightly, the mecha's energy was being consumed little by little, and the opponent's ace had not yet been deployed.
If this continues, the situation will become very difficult to handle.
Lin Fang said that the First Legion would take at least two days to arrive, and it was uncertain whether Huangxing could hold out until then.
Just then, his terminal lit up.
After a few quick clicks on the terminal, Lin Fang's face was projected again.
"Marshal, are you inside the mech right now?"
Xie Liuyan piloted his mech and swung his sword, striking a Zerg creature squarely in the heart, his tone slightly nonchalant:
"Yes, there are many low-level insectoids on the desolate planet now, making them a bit troublesome to kill."
Lin Fang sighed in admiration, "As expected of our marshal, killing the Zerg is as easy as chopping vegetables, and he still has time to take over the terminal."
"Is there something you need?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fang immediately remembered that he wanted to report to the marshal.
"Marshal, the First Legion is traveling at full speed, which has shortened the original two-day journey considerably. We should arrive at the desolate planet by noon tomorrow at the latest. Fortunately, the Marshal and his mech squad held on for a little longer."
That's good news, Xie Liuyan nodded.
"Understood. Send another starship while we deal with the Zerg. There are still quite a few prisoners on the wasteland that need to be transferred and imprisoned. Bring them to the First Legion first."
"As you command, Marshal!"
The terminal was disconnected, and many Zerg lay scattered across the desolate planet.
The third wave of Zerg invasion has come to an end.
Xie Liuyan did not choose to pilot the mecha back to replenish its energy. Thanks to his superb piloting skills, the mecha still had 70% of its energy remaining.
That should be enough to get by for a while.
He moved his wrists and body, and there was a little sweat on his forehead.
Even with his great strength, he was still somewhat tired after dealing with so many Zerg.
After resting for a while, I heard a sound behind me.
A connection request came through the mecha's control interface. Xie Liuyan tapped a few times, and Shen Wangchuan's radiant face appeared on the screen.
"Ayan! I've brought them here."
Xie Liuyan checked the time on the terminal; it had only been three hours since they left.
"I'm not saying you can rest a little longer, I can manage on my own here."
How could Shen Wangchuan forget what Ayan said? He simply couldn't bear to let his beloved face the Zerg alone.
People would laugh at him if they told anyone; what kind of alpha is he?
"I know, I just wanted to help Ayan out a bit. Besides, Wei Xingtong and the others can't stay idle at all; they keep asking to come over."
"Is that so?" Xie Liuyan gave Shen Wangchuan a deep look, but the corners of his mouth curled up.
This person can't even make up a lie.
Regardless of what had happened between them before, they were now much more candid with each other when facing a common enemy.
Of course not, Shen Wangchuan knew that he couldn't hide what he was saying from Ayan.
But seeing the other person's rare smile, his heart inexplicably started beating faster.
Having seen many sides of Ayan, Shen Wangchuan always felt surprised and excited whenever he discovered a different side of her.
However, it was still necessary to put on a show: "Of course, they are very willing... I'm also a little worried about you."
After the second half of the sentence was spoken, the atmosphere between the two became much more silent.
This was the first time Xie Liuyan had heard someone say they couldn't let go of him. No matter which world he was in, his strength was terrifyingly formidable.
Even in the face of the current somewhat tricky situation, he was not greatly affected.
But I never expected to hear such straightforward and adorable words from Shen Wangchuan.
Perhaps he should reciprocate with the same words, but Xie Liuyan wasn't used to being as frighteningly direct as the other person.
He simply replied, "I understand. In that case, stay."
0526 silently sighed as he looked at the pink bubble between the two that even the mecha couldn't separate them:
The aloof and unapproachable God of the past is gone forever. Shen Wangchuan's direct attacks are unstoppable.
Thinking of the God who had previously declared with absolute certainty that he would return to the world of quick transmigration, 0526 was inexplicably looking forward to the moment when the God would make a mistake.
Before the two could exchange more than a few words, Wei Xingtong and the others started chatting in the team channel, completely ruining the original atmosphere.
But now is not the time to talk about this. Just as they were exchanging a few words, the insectoid race reappeared on the desolate planet.
The quantity is even greater than before.
Perhaps they also knew that the longer they waited, the worse it would be, and were preparing for an even larger-scale invasion.
As dusk fell on the desolate planet, the low-level Zerg continued their relentless attacks, unaffected by the time.
It's bound to be hard to sleep tonight.
