Chapter 665 - Go Out And Kill The Enemy
665 – Go Out And Kill The Enemy
TL : GoldenLung
Right now, there were two mecha warriors stationed at the base of Dragon Source Planet. They were the Federation’s elites and were originally part of the Federation’s first Space Fleet. They were the most proficient in battles on land. They were sent here to obtain a large amount of Dragon Source Crystals.
With the existence of Proto Dragons, the Dragon Source Crystals were equivalent to a renewable resource. The Federation attached great importance to this. The mission given to Lei Junze was to obtain as many Dragon Source Crystals as possible every year. At the same time, they continued to explore Dragon Source Planet in order to calculate how many Dragon Source Crystals they would be able to obtain every year without damaging the ecological balance here, thereby achieving a long-term goal of stabilizing and sustainable development.
The higher-ups of the military had promised Lei Junze that as long as he could complete the mission and obtain sufficient Dragon Source Crystals, then three years later, he would obtain a spot to be promoted to lieutenant general.
One must know that the Federation’s military had to rely on military achievements in order to rise in rank, and it was very strict. The highest military rank in the Federation was a general, with only three spots. There were only a dozen or so generals below that. The commander of the seven Space Fleets was a general.
If he could be promoted to lieutenant general, he would already be considered a high-ranking military officer. Furthermore, it wasn’t difficult to complete the mission here against the silly Proto Dragons. Hence, Lei Junze had always been very cautious when facing the dragon tide. He had to ensure that nothing went wrong.
The image enlarged, and when he saw that the one releasing the fireball was a young man in Battle Armor, he could not help but frown. Other than the young man releasing the fireball, there were also some that were shooting arrows and other long-range attacks. In front of them, the most eye-catching was a burly man with golden hair and a height of over four meters. What was that thing in his hand? The tail of the Star Tyrant Proto Dragon? He was truly invincible when he swung it. Those rank 2 and 3 Proto Dragons were sent flying upon contact.
“Investigate which group of Sky Fighters they are.” Lei Junze asked in a low voice.
Very soon, they confirmed their identities—Shrek Academy.
A hint of surprise flashed across Lei Junze’s eyes when he heard the staff officer’s reply. The corners of his lips curled into a smile, and his originally tough face turned gentler.
“Commander-in-chief, should we remind them?” The adviser asked.
Lei Junze shook his head and said, “There’s no need. Tell the captain to pay attention to these Shrek Academy children. If they’re in danger, assist them immediately. Their firepower shouldn’t be able to damage any Dragon Source Crystals.”
“Yes.”
Lei Junze, Shrek Academy’s Outer Court graduate. He graduated 26 years ago.
On the battlefield, Lan Xuanyu was in the middle and didn’t directly enter the battle. He realized that the Proto Dragons that were released weren’t too strong. They were all relatively weak. The high-rank Proto Dragons were at the back and were now blocked by the protective barrier. Their attacks were unable to shake the extremely strong protective barrier of the Dragon Source Planet base. This was a protective barrier supported by a single source core formation. The energy was obviously extremely strong. If an attack that threatened the protective barrier appeared, the soul cannons on the fortress would fire and resolve the crisis.
Those Federation mecha warriors were extremely strong and coordinated well with each other. Wherever they went, it was as if they were crushing the Proto Dragons. Under their attacks, the Proto Dragons were being constantly killed.
These mechas were basically a small team of ten people. One of them was in charge of collecting the Dragon Crystals while the other nine were in charge of killing. They seemed to form a special formation. When attacking the Proto Dragons, there were always a few people attacking at the same time. There were also specialized mechas carrying heavy shields for defense.
Usually, a small team would charge towards the Proto Dragons, and when they did so, the only thing left on the ground was shattered corpses. Their efficiency was extremely high, and it was obvious that they had done this countless times.
There were also some elites among the Proto Dragons, and there were some rank 5 and above. The black mechas would specifically target them.
Lan Xuanyu’s team was at the side, and the Proto Dragons were generally not strong. They attacked from afar and reaped in close combat. The agility-type soul masters were responsible for digging the Dragon Crystals.
Qian Lei, who was charging at the front, wielded the deadly meteor hammer and was invincible. Any Proto Dragon that got close to him within a radius of over 10 meters would be sent flying, causing his teammates to stay far away from him.
Yan Ruoting, who was in the air, was also surprised. The killing speed of these 30 or so Shrek Academy youths was extremely fast, and their long-range attacks disrupted the Proto Dragon formation. The close combat soul masters in front were extremely ferocious, and there were even control-type soul skills that unleashed on the Proto Dragons from time to time.
The reason why Qian Lei felt so good was because there were control-type soul masters behind him!
A golden light revolved around Ding Zhuohan’s body as Lan Xuanyu’s silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass wrapped around his waist. He would look up at the sky from time to time as he mumbled something. Beams of golden light soared into the sky and landed on the Proto Dragons. They were able to immobilize a large number of Proto Dragons.
In just a short while, over 30 Proto Dragons had been killed by them.
Lan Xuanyu had been observing these Proto Dragons. At this speed, killing them here was much more efficient than hunting them in the wild. Although there were a large number of Proto Dragons, most of them were blocked by the Federation Mecha Regiment. They didn’t have much pressure on their side and the low-level Proto Dragons were like cutting melons and vegetables to them.
“Charge!” Lan Xuanyu quickly gave the order and changed from his steady advance to charging.
This was because he had already observed carefully. On their side, the strongest Proto Dragons were only two rank 6, and they were still fighting against two black mecha masters at a distance. They were unable to encounter any opponents that posed a threat. Only by charging forward could they speed up their hunt of the Proto Dragons.
“Bai Xiuxiu, Tang Yuge, Bing Tianliang, go out and kill the enemies,” Lan Xuanyu shouted.
Three figures charged out of Shrek’s formation and charged into the group of Proto Dragons.
Yan Ruoting, who was in the air, was shocked when she saw this. How could this be? What if there was danger?
But it was at this moment that she truly witnessed the strength of these Shrek Academy students.
Tang Yuge’s figure flashed and charged forward with six soul rings shining on her body. Then, Yan Ruoting saw that she directly collided with a Proto Dragon.
It was a bulky rank 4 Proto Dragon. It spewed out a golden light from its mouth and was charging straight at Tang Yuge. However, Tang Yuge’s body and her Battle Armor turned gold in an instant and actually drilled into the golden light and directly collided with the Proto Dragon.
A strange scene occurred. Tang Yuge disappeared, and the Proto Dragon’s body froze. In the next moment, Tang Yuge appeared behind it as though she had melted out of its body. She was already holding onto the Proto Dragon’s Dragon Crystal.
Golden Escape!
The entire body of the Proto Dragon was made of metal. She immediately used the Golden Escape skill to drill into the body of the Proto Dragon and then grabbed its Dragon Crystal. The strength of this rank 4 Proto Dragon’s metal element attack was simply unable to block her Golden Escape skill.
With a flash, she entered another Proto Dragon’s body and another crystal appeared in her hand.
Unlike her “gentle wind and drizzle”, Bing Tianliang’s fighting style was extremely tyrannical.
A Demon Puppet appeared behind him. Its entire body was surrounded by lightning and it was extremely fast. Electric light shot in all directions and exploded, causing the surrounding 10 plus Proto Dragons to twitch.
The Demon Puppet behind him swelled up and transformed into a purple lightning bear that struck the Proto Dragons and sent them flying.
Bing Tianliang didn’t try to extract the Dragon Source Crystals, but instead continued to create large-scale attacks. The previous rank 6 Star Tyrant Proto Dragon was unable to break free from his control, let alone these low-grade Proto Dragons.
The fusion with the Purple Lightning Bear Spirit Soul had allowed Bing Tianliang’s strength to increase exponentially. The might of his lightning was unleashed and left behind a large number of half-dead Proto Dragons for the agility-type soul masters to reap.
But what caught Yan Ruoting’s attention was not the two of them but a graceful figure.
