Chapter 6: Arriving at the Command Cabin
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Under the cover of Wan Ling’s powerful firepower, Su Chen and the others immediately ran in the direction of the command cabin.
“Let’s go!”
While shouting, Su Chen took out a few glow sticks from his backpack and threw along the retreat route of the group.
At this time, there was no point to save resources!
The dense swarm of insects blocked the retreat route of the group.
Without the presence of lighting equipment, no matter how powerful Wan Ling’s firepower was, it would definitely have a blind spot!
As an Evolver, Wan Ling did not need ammunition to attack, but it did not mean that her spiritual power was unlimited!
Although the light from the glow sticks was far inferior to the strong light, under such circumstances, they did not have a better idea.
Su Chen took a deep look at the direction where Mark and Gao Fei were.
The blue fist wind and the silvery-white blade light kept flashing in the middle of the swarm of insects. However, Su Chen could clearly see that the frequency of their attacks was not as fast as before!
Even powerful Evolvers would definitely be exhausted when facing this endless swarm of insects.
The only thing Su Chen and the others could do was to evacuate to the command cabin as soon as possible to buy them time to escape!
“Damn it, it’s all that idiot’s fault!” Gu Xin roared angrily.
The fire in his hands did not stop, and he was helping Wan Ling clear out the insects on the retreat route.
Gu Xin’s round face kept trembling under the huge recoil of the gun, and his eyes were bloodshot, afraid that the petrified centipede would break through the line of fire in the blink of an eye.
While Su Chen retreated with the team, he was still shooting at the petrified centipede hiding in the shadows at a steady pace. Among the people present, only his eyesight could do this.
Wan Ling had clearly seen Su Chen’s precise and calm marksmanship. When he was reloading, she had deliberately protected him in the middle of the group.
When Su Chen was shooting at the bat-type Origin Beast, he had attracted Wan Ling’s attention. In such a short period of time, it was already difficult to use a gun to accurately block the Origin Beast’s attack.
This required an extremely strong dynamic vision, a calm state of mind, and an extremely fast reaction speed. Su Chen, a rookie, was able to do this, which was really beyond her expectations.
Moreover, Su Chen’s current identity was that of an employee.
Out of the three battle squads, only Wan Ling used a long-range weapon. Thus, she was the first to notice Su Chen’s talent.
If helping Gao Fei kill the bat-type Origin Beast was due to luck, then under such a dangerous situation, Su Chen was still able to perform steadily. Clearly, it was not something that luck could explain clearly.
“Ah!”
Just as they were about to reach the door of the command cabin, a scream was heard!
Everyone turned around and saw a worker being ambushed by a petrified centipede hiding in the shadow of its shell!
Far away from the previous battle, most of its shell was still intact.
The petrified centipede was hiding in the blind spot of everyone’s vision!
The worker only felt a chill on the back of his neck!
The petrified centipede’s poisonous mouthpart had already pierced into his neck.
This caused him to pause in his retreat. Although it was only a few seconds, he had already left the group.
“Old Wang!”
An employee who knew him spoke in grief and indignation. He wanted to rush forward and pull him out of the group of petrified centipedes.
“Stop!” Wan Ling said anxiously. If someone still left the group at this time, then no one would be able to leave today!
In just a few short seconds, several petrified centipedes had already climbed onto the worker’s body!
“Da! Da! Da!” Even if Wan Ling quickly cleaned up the petrified centipedes beside the worker’s feet, she was unable to stop his life from gradually fading away.
The worker known as Old Wang used all his strength in the group of centipedes. He raised his gun and pointed it at his chin.
“Click.” There were no bullets in the gun.
When Old Wang realized this, his heart was filled with despair!
The nerve venom of the petrified centipede had slowly eroded his mind. At the same time, the other centipedes that climbed onto his body began to enjoy the feast in front of them impatiently.
At the last moment, Old Wang looked in the direction of everyone with great difficulty. He used the last bit of strength in his body and squeezed out a sentence from his throat, “Kill… kill me!”
Wan Ling looked at Old Wang and a hint of struggle flashed in her eyes. At this moment.
“Bang!” A gunshot came from her side.
Just a minute ago, this familiar body was still harvesting the petrified centipede to protect the lives of her teammates.
This time, the gunshot freed his teammates.
Su Chen looked in Old Wang’s direction. Old Wang slowly fell to the ground with a look of relief on his face.
“F*ck you, you b*stards, die for me!”
The moment Old Wang fell, the employee who was familiar with him brazenly rushed out from the crowd.
Crack!
A crisp sound rang out!
“Captain Gao Fei! Let’s go!”
Mark, who had been attracted by the commotion, was about to explode when he saw this scene!
With the help of the faint fluorescent light, he could clearly see what the employee was holding. It was a high explosive grenade!
Following that, he felt a huge force coming from his lower back!
“Bang!” Gao Fei kicked outward, and Mark’s body shot toward the command cabin like a cannonball.
Soon after, Gao Fei’s figure seemed to turn into a silver light. The gale power covered his body, and he instantly accelerated toward Su Chen and the others.
At this moment, even Su Chen could not see Gao Fei’s figure clearly.
“Let’s go!”
Just when everyone was stunned, Wan Ling’s voice came from behind.
They turned their heads and saw that Wan Ling had already cleared all the petrified centipedes in front of them and stood in front of the command cabin’s door. There was still some time before the petrified centipedes surged out again.
Under the threat of fear, everyone rushed toward the command cabin.
Su Chen followed the steps of the workers and quickly entered the command cabin!
“F*ck!”
Before he could catch his breath, Su Chen heard a scream beside him. He immediately raised his gun and aimed in the direction of the scream.
He saw Gu Xin being pressed down by Mark who was flying toward him.
The hard shell on Mark’s body had not faded yet, causing Gu Xin to scream in pain.
After landing, Mark immediately got up and ignored Gu Xin who was screaming in pain. He ran toward the alloy door of the command cabin.
“Fortunately, the circuit here was connected!”
Just a few minutes ago, when he and Gao Fei arrived at the command cabin, they tried to connect the circuit. However, they did not expect it to be useful now!
Under Mark’s quick operation, the giant alloy door of the command cabin was slowly closing!
Just as the giant alloy door was about to completely close, a figure was thrown into the cabin.
Then, Gao Fei used a slide shovel and finally entered the giant alloy door the moment it was about to completely close.
“Boom!”
A loud sound was heard, and the entire spaceship seemed to tremble a little!
Su Chen and the others covered their eardrums in pain and squatted on the ground.
A buzzing sound filled his mind.
Su Chen braced himself and stood up with great difficulty under the strong dizziness. He glanced at the giant alloy door.
It was intact!
Only then did he let out a sigh of relief. He was finally safe.
