However, there were too many swooping birds and black rats. Even the laser gun’s continuous spraying of laser shots could not reduce their numbers in a short period of time.
When she saw that Su Ying was gradually surrounded by the black birds and black rats, a trace of a chilly smile crept over Wei Ji’s face. “Since the people from the Tiger Base dared to sneak in, I will show them how powerful I am. Indigo, Blue, and Purple Guardians, listen to my orders. I want you to flatten the Tiger Base before dawn!”
Three ghostly figures appeared beside Wei Ji. “Yes, Your Majesty.”
Soon, they disappeared into the darkness.
Su Ying’s laser gun could not take care of the vermin below while dealing with those creatures above. Thus, she turned around and jumped down to the base of the palace.
“Don’t let her escape. Go after her!”
As Su Ying’s figure disappeared into the darkness, she quickly zipped into the interspatial store to change her weapon!
She placed the laser gun on the shelf and quickly put on a protective suit. Then, she took out her flamethrower and zipped out of the interspatial store again.
The black birds and rats quickly discovered Su Ying’s tracks, but as soon as they approached, a big burst of flames erupted from her body with a loud boom.
Both the black birds and the black rats were afraid of fire. When they saw the flames enveloping her body, they did not dare to go near her.
“Tonight’s supper will be roasted birds and roasted rats!”
Su Ying turned on the flamethrower in her hand. Boom! A huge burst of flames burst forth at the black rats that had stopped in their tracks. In an instant, the air outside the palace was filled with the smell of burning meat.
The Yellow Guardian, who was following right behind the black rats, quickly appeared upon seeing this. He blew the bone flute in his hand, trying to get the black rats to dodge first, but he didn’t know that his act would expose his whereabouts in front of Su Ying.
Su Ying swung the flamethrower in her hand around and aimed it at him.
The flames from the jet were like a fiery dragon leading a scorching heat wave, making the Yellow Guardian retreat repeatedly.
The Yellow Guardian turned around and tried to escape, but was shot by Su Ying’s small laser gun as he was fleeing.
“Argh!”
The moment the Yellow Guardian fell to the ground, his body was engulfed in flames.
“Argh!”
When they saw the Yellow Guardian rolling around in the flames, the other guardians all appeared and began attacking Su Ying. Su Ying had been waiting for this moment. While she was using the flames to attract their attention, her other hand was already aiming at them with a laser gun!
All three guardians fell to weapons that they did not even know existed.
Su Ying walked up to the Yellow Guardian and crushed the bone flute that had dropped to the ground.
The moment the bone flute shattered, the black rats seemed to have suddenly woken up and fled in all directions.
Wei Ji’s eyes turned bloodshot as she watched the Guardians getting defeated. She roared and a lion appeared before her.
She leaped up, rode on the lion’s back, and then charged madly toward Su Ying.
“I will personally tear you apart tonight!”
Su Ying extinguished the flames on her body and took out her laser gun again, aiming straight at Wei Ji who was charging at her.
The moment the laser gun began spraying shots, the birds in the sky quickly flew toward Wei Ji, forming a wall of birds in front of her.
Su Ying’s eyes gradually turned chilly, and she immediately whipped out her cannon. Boom!
A huge hole appeared in the wall of birds.
Wei Ji was like a demon from hell, swinging her barbed chains as she charged at Su Ying.
“Go to hell!”
Su Ying tossed the cannon aside and wiped off the blood that had sprayed onto her face. Then, she picked up the laser gun and aimed it at Wei Ji again.
The lion’s movements were extremely fast. It carried Wei Ji and jumped to dodge the shots.
Su Ying’s eyes darkened as she tossed her laser gun aside and brandished her electric baton as she charged forward.
The excitement of such close combat made all the hair on her body stand on end, just like when she was thrown into the zombie horde back then. There was only bloody slaughter in her eyes.
The sky gradually turned bright.
When Xiao Jin rode his horse to the gate wall, he sensed a strange aura.
He took out his binoculars and saw a dense group of troops coming in their direction from the forest.
“Everyone, be alert.”
The expressions of the people standing guard became grim. They knew that those Sky Alpha Cult members had come again.
“Go and pass on the message to Tiger Might and the rest. A large group of people from the Sky Alpha Cult is coming.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Xiao Jin gripped the spear in his hand tightly and stood by, ready for battle.
After receiving the news, Tiger Might and the others became grim and went into a state of combat readiness.
When the three guardians were about to approach the Tiger Base, they started splitting into three forces and approached the Tiger Base in different directions.
Xiao Jin stood on the gate wall and saw a group of indigo-colored troops moving toward them. He realized that after they entered the array formation, they did not continue to go forward. Instead, they began digging around and doing something.
Just as the people of the Tiger Base were feeling puzzled, they heard an explosion. Boom! Those people had blown up the array formation.
“They blew up our array formation. What should we do, Master Xiao?”
“All archers, get ready to attack once the enemy comes within shooting range,” Xiao Jin said without batting an eyelid.
“Yes, Sir.”
Suddenly, Xiao Jin ordered, “Shoot.”
Covert arrows shot out like a rainstorm.
The Indigo Guardian saw the covert arrows flying toward them and immediately asked everyone to dodge.
“Guardian, we are within the shooting range of the arrows, which means that we are very close to the Tiger Base.”
The Indigo Guardian narrowed his eyes and divided the team into two groups. One group was in charge of providing cover while the other was in charge of pressing forward in secret.
On the gate wall, Xiao Jin drew the bow in his hand to the max and shot the arrow.
Swoosh! An indigo-robed man fell to the ground.
“Move faster!”
“Activate mist cover.”
“Yes, Guardian.”
A thick indigo-hued smoke suddenly erupted from inside the array formation, and the people on the gate wall could not really see what was happening below.
The arrows in their hands were limited, and they did not dare to shoot recklessly.
“It won’t be long before they reach the gate. Get people to reinforce the gate immediately and switch battle method.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Sure enough, just as Xiao Jin finished speaking, he heard a loud explosion outside the gate.
They wanted to blow up the gate.
Number Five and the others immediately carried a large sack of white powder and scattered the contents down the wall. Then, they lit a torch and threw it down.
Boom! The white powder quickly caught fire in the open air. During the burning process, a cloud of black smoke billowed out toward the indigo-robed men.
Before the indigo-robed men could figure out what it was, they felt as if their necks were being strangled. The air in their chests gradually thinned, and a sense of suffocation swept over them, making it almost impossible for them to breathe.
Indigo Guardian came to his senses at that point. “It’s poisonous gas. Everyone, hold your breath and retreat.”
However, it was too late for the people who had rushed to the front. They were gradually enveloped by the poisonous gas and collapsed outside the gate.
The moment their hearts stopped beating, their bodies turned into pools of blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Indigo Guardian could only keep retreating with the rest of his men until all the poisonous gas had dissipated.
“Guardian, what should we do next?”
The Indigo Guardian did not expect the people from the Tiger Base to become so powerful. If they did not adjust their battle strategy, only death awaited them..
