CHAPTER 793: CHAPTER 347: FIRE METEOR!

In the high sky, black mist twisted and churned. Just as Lin Xian obtained the memory device, he heard Qian Suxun’s call. His immediate reaction was to wonder if something had happened to Ning Jing over there. Without hesitation, he immediately had KIKI lead the group to rapidly descend, find Chen Sixuan and Shi Zhi, and prepare to move swiftly through the low streets.

"Lin, the sewage treatment plant should have already received the feedback signal, you have 15 minutes to evacuate."

Mochizuki Masashi’s voice came through.

Meanwhile, Lin Xian checked the time while ensuring the memory device in his hand wasn’t damaged. This black memory device was invaluable, capable of storing the high-energy density brain volume information of an adult human. For digital life, it was already an iterative version through many generations.

He wiped off some cerebrospinal fluid and mycelium from it and handed it to Grace beside him.

"Grace, check if the memory device is intact."

Grace took it and opened a slot on her left wrist. After inserting the memory device and inspecting it, she told Lin Xian,

"Confirmed intact. This memory device uses RSA encryption. My quantum computer can brute force it."

"No need for now." After confirming it was intact, Lin Xian took back the memory device, thinking it better to let Mochizuki Masashi handle it with time. Their current task was to gather and evacuate.

In White City’s downtown, decaying and old buildings stood together. Strangely unsettling noises echoed from all directions, and signal waves crackled in the headset. As Lin Xian and his team reached White City Hospital, they could see from afar a burning transport ship unleashing intense firepower downward while countless silver drone swarms crisscrossed, engaging in an all-out battle above and below.

Explosions erupted incessantly in several blocks, and thick smoke billowed!

This scene was different from the transport ship they had encountered earlier. Not only was it heavily armed, but it also had a large number of drone escorts.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The transport ship spread open like angel wings, deploying dozens of large cylindrical devices. Those devices burst apart in the air, decomposing into countless spider-shaped robots that swiftly clung to walls and the ground. The upper part of the body was a rotating round head that continuously fired red pulse lasers.

Boom!

A tremendous noise followed as the outer walls of buildings on half the street and fragmented derelict vehicles were stripped away by a powerful force, advancing like a tsunami to obliterate the drones in the air and on the ground. Ryuji, wielding a red katana, had just landed atop a high-rise. With a backhanded slash, he cleaved an approaching humanoid mecha in two, resulting in a high-energy explosion.

Thud, thud, thud!

Two silver heavy armored mechas rampaged through the streets, tearing apart spider robots that leaped at them while also facing waves of Abnormal Bodies. At this time, Qian Suxun was sitting in the shadows atop a distant high building, controlling two mechas to cover the ground below while engaging another mecha in battle on the transport ship.

"Lin!" Qian Suxun detected the arrival of Lin Xian’s team and immediately said, "Red Man Gu has triggered the Monster Tide. This transport ship is the main force, Lan is on it, and we must quickly resolve the battle."

Lin Xian and his team flew over, and before reaching their destination, Chen Sixuan noticed from a distance the fierce fighting occurring in the inpatient building of the ruined hospital.

A massive explosion boomed as a shadow was punched out from the wall, and Ning Jing leapt out from the opening.

"Captain Lin, there’s a Prowler here, be careful."

Before the words were out, a series of explosive blasts ignited the open space of the hospital. A golden flash shot out, kicking the shadow with a heavy blow.

Qian Deli emerged from the smoke, twisting his ankle, and a faint curse could be heard: "Damn hard fellow!"

But before he could finish speaking, the Red Man Gu he had kicked away suddenly lit up with a pair of crimson eyes in the dark and began gathering wild energy, which then erupted in a burst!

Buzz! Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

An energy beam combining Ah Bai’s laser beam and Luo Yang’s blast pulse suddenly incinerated the spot where Qian Deli had been standing, igniting dozens of fireballs across the scene, piercing straight through one side of the hospital’s building and corridors!

Lin Xian’s gaze swept across, seeing Xiao Qing swinging with a grappling hook, holding a gun blade and charging out from a swarm of monsters. Above, Monica used a Sound Blade to cover Ah Bai, who then launched a laser beam at the transport ship.

But under the transport ship’s bow hung a bizarre black device, which suddenly spewed a cloud of tiny devices exploding into a dark red mist, akin to the one Lin Xian had encountered earlier when fighting the Deceit Python. Ah Bai’s laser beam was unexpectedly blocked by the mist, though the immense energy caused an explosion that blew open part of the transport ship.

"The Abnormal Bodies are increasing; at this rate, no one will be able to escape." KIKI observed the chaos and remarked.

"Brother Huo, go help Qian Deli and Ning Jing deal with the Red Man Gu. Teacher Chen, take Shi Zhi to assist Monica and Ah Bai; have Ah Bai and Shi Zhi find that Prowler. Killing more won’t matter unless we take it out."

"KIKI, Grace, let’s bring down the transport ship!"

"Okay!"

"The real body goes too!"

At Lin Xian’s words, Lu Xingchen’s fighting spirit surged. Seeing the towering Red Man Gu burst forward like a Fire Meteor, he crossed his index fingers mid-air, emitting a small fireball. Infinite Ring spun crazily, turning the fireball blue. The searing heat even reddened his Power Armor armor. He then clasped the blue fireball with both hands, launching it like a ki blast.
