CHAPTER 514: CHAPTER 282: MIST CROWN CLOAK (10,000-CHARACTER BOMB!) (PART 4)

"Right now, it doesn’t hold much significance, anyway we’re together in a big fight." He Zhen’s gaze swept over the positions Zhao Yu pointed to, saying coldly, "Those places are near the tunnels dug by those pests underground. Their subterranean assault is even more formidable than shield machines, catching us unprepared, resulting in such heavy casualties."

Zhao Yu let out a breath, "I’m worried about the same issue right now."

He Zhen looked at him, "Worried that the bugs would tunnel out from within the defense lines?"

Zhao Yu nodded, "The southern city is slightly better; below the radar station are ore veins and the old underground air defense system, with millions of tons of concrete poured in. But the northern city and the east city..."

"No other choice," He Zhen said. "Our only plan now is to use Disaster Plant to lure that thing out on Central Street and then deal with it. Based on the experiences from the previous two times, it should work."

Zhao Yu thought for a moment and pressed the communicator.

"Wen Zhuo, what’s the situation over there?"

"Rehearsing," Wen Zhuo’s voice came through.

...

On the Central Street plaza, thirty-five teams led by Frenzy Level units were gathering.

Wen Zhuo, KIKI, Han Jun, Qin Xueming, and Lu Xingchen stood at the forefront as the main force, while other groups were temporarily formed by the Nightwalker based on their abilities and previous test data.

Some were acquaintances, but most were collaborating for the first time.

Beep beep.

Wen Zhuo flew in the sky, his combat suit’s photonic camouflage flickering in sync with the blizzard. He wore transparent tactical glasses, and his wrist’s tactical terminal projected the holographic sand table onto the tactical visors of each member of the hunting team.

To ensure tactical unity, all team members were issued the tactical glasses by the Nightwalker Organization, clearly displaying the holographic 3D map of the surrounding blocks.

"The tactical link has covered all combat units." A mechanical female voice rang in everyone’s earphones, and KIKI touched the hologram in front, finding it intriguing and couldn’t help but mutter softly,

"This thing is so fun~ Hmm~ Should I bring one back for Lin Xian later?"

Wen Zhuo spoke,

"Everyone pay attention, this communicator was prepared by us Nightwalker for combat. I’ve set up two anti-interference frequencies, one for your five-member squad and one for our overall hunting team. From now on, except for the temporary team captains, everyone else remains silent on their original communicators; overall coordination will be arranged by me, no dropping out."

"As for the internal teams, everyone needs to quickly get familiar with coordination. I’ve just familiarized you with the environment of the surrounding block, those special sections must be remembered. Internal teams must have functional coordination to increase survival rate."

"Everyone attention!" Wen Zhuo’s gaze swept over, "Except for members of our Starfire team, the others may have been the main force of their respective squadrons before, but this time we’re facing A-level Abnormal Bodies, even S-level Abnormal Bodies. Personal heroism is strictly forbidden; individual combat will surely lead to death. You must follow the arrangement of the squad leader, understand?!"

"Understood."

"Got it..."

"OK!"

The crowd responded one after another.

The entire hunting team could be said to comprise the strongest superpowers and evolvers in Xilan City. Except for people like Da Lou, who are not suitable for hunting tasks due to low mobility, they remain at the defense lines. Numerous Genetic Evolvers wore power armors, leveraging their excellent physical conditions for mobility.

Over at the Infinity group, Shu Qin, Lv Chang, and Ning Jing from Dragon Mountain No.1 teamed up with Xiao Qing. The team leader was Starfire Nightwalker Wang Muchen, who, similar to Jiang Yun as a Wind Element Superpower User, differed greatly from Jiang Yun’s Wind Control Flight. Around him, fierce wind currents formed, giving the whole team a sense of seamlessly riding the wind and enabling small-scale gliding.

"Five hours till nightfall, prepare defenses."

Wen Zhuo glanced back at KIKI; the Hell Black Chrysanthemum was placed in a specialized container: "Give it to me."

KIKI nodded, using Telekinesis to send the Hell Black Chrysanthemum over. Wen Zhuo reached out to grasp it; countless metal fragments flew in all directions, quickly assembling an iron chain to secure the container, held with one hand.

"To take precautions, let’s start moving at each point, and meanwhile use abilities to assist in the defense line setup."

Han Jun waved his hand; large amounts of ice crystal vapors condensed in the air beneath his feet to form a high ice column platform: "Just right, let’s go."

...

15:30

Over at the Trakama Ice Valley, a mechanical arm was lifting the heavy monument core, re-inserting it into the opened slot under the cockpit of the No.1 Machine, swoosh~ hiss.

The mecha unit reclosed, and on Yu Yuheng’s mobile terminal appeared a progress bar for the self-diagnosis program.

"Captain Lin, it’s completed, next is to reheat and ignite the reactor core."

"Copy."

Bang.

Swoosh~

The dual nuclear fusion turbine engine of the Pangu No.1 Machine, frozen over time, emitted a Cherenkov radiation vibration; the niobium-titanium superconducting ring around the chest reactor began to heat, instantly melting large amounts of ice shards!

An odd energy ripple spread out!

Inside the cockpit, Chen Wei quietly fine-tuned his equipment, already wearing the neural resonance operating armor. The twelve interfaces along his spine resonated and hummed with the main control core of the No.1 Machine, while Lin Xian remained in the corner, running the Mechanical Heart for scanning, not yet reaching the repair phase.
