A pair of sharp claws crisscrossed and tore down, and the surging Origin Energy left a clear X-shaped pattern in the air. Kamu crossed his saber arms in front of his chest, blocking the vital points of his head, face, and chest. However, his arms, shoulders, and abdomen were torn open by Lei Gao's claw lines.
Gao Lei chuckled while Kamu was defending with all his might. A bear hug hugged Kamu tightly.
"Are you going to strangle me to death? Superficial humans! "The projection behind Kamu grabbed a few lightning beads and was about to blast them at Gao Lei.
Suddenly, his entire body trembled and the lightning bead dissipated. Kamu spat out blood from his mouth, and his entire body trembled uncontrollably. Many black horns appeared on Gao Lei's body at an unknown time. Kamu, who was tightly hugged by him, couldn't even dodge. Many parts of his body were pierced through by the sharp horns. From afar, the two of them looked like a sea urchin.
Kamu couldn't help but moan, "You're not a human, are you …"
Lei Gao couldn't understand his language. He retracted his thorns and raised Kamu. He stabbed the horn on his forehead into Kamu's abdomen and shook it forcefully, throwing Kamu out heavily.
Kamu landed on the ground, his body bleeding profusely, and his appearance miserable. Gao Lei moved his hands, preparing to deal with him completely. Kamu suddenly let out a sharp howl. The phantom of the ancestor above his head pushed his hands fiercely and threw out a few dark red lightning beads.
"It's the same no matter how many times you come. In the empty city, Sonya can provide me with a shield …" Gao Lei lowered his center of gravity and let out a beast-like roar. With both feet on the ground, he charged towards Kamu. Thick Origin Energy seeped out of his body, forming the phantom of the magical beast-like ancestor in front of Gao Lei.
However, the lightning bead passed Gao Lei.
"Damn it!" Only then did Gao Lei know that he was targeting Sonya.
When he stopped, he turned around and rushed towards Sonya.
Sonya, who was moving the city, could provide assistance to the allies in the battle, but she was unable to protect herself. That was the only flaw in the empty city. All Sonya could do was to forcefully resist Kamu's attack or choose to avoid it. If he chose the latter, he would have to leave this place. The empty city would not be able to be maintained, and this would give Kamu a chance to escape.
Gao Lei no longer had the time to care whether Kamu's attack was unintentional or intentional. He could only return to protect Sonya first.
Normally, when Suo Ya activated Empty City, there would be one or two Black Rose guards guarding her. However, now that Black Rose, Melinda's personal guards, had also participated in the battle at the forward base, the responsibility of protection fell to Gao Lei.
In the state of the Berserk Beast Battle Body, Gao Lei's strength increased greatly, but his speed did not increase. Lei Dong was so powerful that Gao Lei could not stop him.
Sonia sighed softly and could only dodge to the side.
The lightning beads crashed down, causing a series of explosions. Suo Ya was only affected by the impact of the explosion. She was fine, but Empty City could not be maintained.
Kamu was overjoyed when he saw this. Originally, he only had the mentality of killing one more, so he attacked Sonya, who had been maintaining her original state. He didn't expect that he would accidentally hit the target and force Sonya away, unable to maintain the empty city. Seeing the castle phantom above his head disappear, Kamu struggled to jump up. He used his Origin Energy to shrink the wound and escape with all his might. He could no longer maintain the projection of his ancestor, and his aura was extremely weak.
Even so, in a short period of time, the speed that he exploded out was something that Gao Lei could not catch up to.
In the blink of an eye, Kamu rushed out a hundred meters and headed towards a wolf rider, wanting to snatch the giant wolf from the Knight so that he could use it as an escape tool. Suddenly, an ice-cold aura poured down from his head like ice water. Kamu shivered and felt as if his body had been frozen stiff, unable to move at all. Following that, four pupils of different sizes appeared around his body. After rolling for a while, they all looked towards Kamu.
In the pupil in front of him, Kamu could clearly see his figure. His movements, including Origin Energy, were motionless at this moment, as if the world had been pressed the stop button.
Evil Eye Ali Feido!
Kamu did not expect that at this critical moment, Sodom's legendary ancestral ability would once again appear on the battlefield. Kamu hurriedly restrained his spirit and urged the Origin Energy in his body to explode outside his body, so as to disperse the suppression of the Evil Eye. Just as he felt the frozen air around him shatter, Kamu saw a clear trajectory of red light flash past in the reflection of the Evil Eye's pupils!
The other end of the red light had already sunk into his body.
Was he hit? That was Kamu's first thought.
At this moment, a rumbling sound rang out in the air. The Evil Eye's binding force field was torn apart by Kamu, but there was already a fist-sized wound on his chest. Then, the blood vessels beneath his skin lit up, as if what was flowing inside was not blood, but flames!
The uncontrollable destructive energy struck every part of his body. First, his blood vessels ruptured, and then his internal organs and bones began to collapse. That was the annihilation of Kamu's own drowning Origin Energy. The Origin Energy formed a monstrous wave that washed through Kamu's body. If he had faced Gao Lei before, Kamu would have been able to suppress the burning of Origin Energy with his own strength. Now that he was seriously injured, the remaining Origin Energy was simply unable to stop this kind of destruction.
It was as if a blazing sun was rising within his body. The intense pain of his internal organs being licked by a tongue of flame caused Kamu to be unable to help but scream miserably. In the end, Kamu's entire body emitted a blood-red light, and then it exploded violently. The shockwave of the self-detonation caused Gao Lei to stagger. Seeing the high-temperature flames rolling towards him like a tide, the colonel roared and threw Sonya down. Flames poured out of his body and danced, burning the mane on Gao Lei's back.
Fortunately, the fire came and went quickly. After the flames retracted, Gao Lei used his Origin Energy to suppress the fire on his back, but there was a burning smell. Looking at the field again, thick black and red smoke billowed up. This pillar of smoke that was like a black dragon soared into the sky, as if it wanted to connect the heavens and the earth together. In the thick smoke, dark red blood energy rose and flew in the same direction.
On the high ground where the blood energy was pointing, Gao Lei saw Allen.
Allen stepped on a raised rock and held a pitch-black heavy sniper in his hand. The flame-like patterns on the sniper/rifle were beginning to extinguish, and the flying blood energy was injected into the heavy sniper one by one. After the heavy sniper lines lit up, it returned to the form of a dagger. Allen could feel that apart from Kamu's life essence, the blood energy that the Anthem of Destruction had received this time had also plundered a small portion of its gene fragments.
The Origin Tool that had returned to its dagger form was emitting waves of pleasant fluctuations through Allen's will.
"What a vampire." Allen whispered.
His gaze swept across the battlefield.
The battle was nearing its end. After the Rose Empress joined the battle, the defenders of the base also joined the counterattack. The Storm Chariots formed a team of five, separating the Blade Demon's army and annihilating them one by one. In the end, with Kamu's death, the remnants of the Saber Demon had no fighting spirit. Those who could escape had already fled. As for the rest, they were either killed or taken captive.
The defensive wall of the base was blackened by the flames of war, but at least, the base was not destroyed by the Saber Demon. This meant that the Federation army had already survived the most difficult stage in the Barren Lands. The Rose Empress would use this base as a starting point, and they would continue to go deeper and eventually point at the Sacred Site.
However, by then, Allen would have probably returned to Earth, or even gone on an expedition to another star system.
Allen slid down the slope and crossed the battlefield to Kamu's self-detonation. Sure enough, at the center of the explosion, Kamu's Origin Jade was found in a piece of scorched earth. It was a round crystal stone, and its surface was still emitting tiny electric currents from time to time. This piece of Origin Jade was of great help to someone like Coggess, who was mainly lightning, and it could also be exchanged for a large amount of military merit.
Carrying it to Gao Lei and the others, Gao Lei had already removed his Berserk Beast Battle Body, but his upper body was bare as he pressed down on Sonya's body. Before the two of them could recover from Kamu's self-detonation, Allen could only cough dryly. Sonya's face turned red for the first time and she said in a deep voice, "How long do you want to keep pressing?"
"This … I … Haha …" Gao Lei laughed dryly and hurriedly got up.
Sonya patted the mud off her body and turned around to leave, "I'll go see if anyone else needs help."
Halfway through, he picked up Gao Lei's coat and threw it over. Gao Lei Zheng caught it, and Allen handed Kamu's Origin Jade to him and said, "Come on, Colonel. Looks like you have a chance. "
"What? No, no, no, I'm actually … "Gao Lei waved his hand.
Allen laughed and said, "There's no need to explain. I understand. Don't worry, I'll keep this secret for you. "
"What secret? I don't have a secret. Second Lieutenant, come back here! "
Of course, Allen ignored him.
Gao Lei shook his head and put his clothes back on. Thinking of Sonya's action of throwing her clothes, her heart warmed up.
Perhaps Allen is right, but Sonya has never taken the initiative to pay attention to me. Gao Lei's dark face couldn't help but reveal a smile. He hurriedly reached out to cover it, thinking to himself, I'm still the base manager, how can I let a little ghost see through my thoughts so easily? No, I have to be serious!
After adjusting his emotions, Gao Lei returned to the base.
The soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, occasionally shooting a few more shots at the heavily injured and dying Saber Demon. The Border Rong Army in charge of cleaning up would also bleed the Saber Demon who had just died. Every standard unit of Saber Demon blood could be exchanged for a military merit. Although these military merits were not enough to allow these veterans to leave their current establishment, they could be exchanged for consumables like cigarettes.
After a great battle, there was nothing better to reward oneself than tobacco and liquor.
Empress Rose's soldiers didn't have to compete with the Border Rong Army for this bit of military merit, so almost all of the surviving Border Rong Army squeezed onto the battlefield. They could also earn some extra military merit while working, so why not?
Allen returned to the playground and saw Broy sitting beside a car from afar. William was sitting cross-legged on the hood of the car, drinking wine. Lucy bandaged the Highlanders. Seeing them, Allen was relieved. He quickened his pace and walked over, shouting, "Are you all alright?"
Lucy had just finished bandaging Broy's wound when she saw Allen running up with a cheer. She crashed into Allen's arms. William also jumped out of the car and walked forward with the Highlanders. He lightly hit Allen's waist with his fist and said, "We're relieved to see that you weren't killed by the Saber Demon."
Allen punched him in the chest and returned the color. However, it just so happened to hit Welik's wound. His expression immediately turned ugly, causing the few of them to laugh loudly. There was a hint of schadenfreude in their laughter.
Looking at Allen and the others from afar, Gao Lei rubbed his chin and said, "Looking at these kids reminds me of when I first joined the army."
"Recalling the past is proof of old age." Sonya looked at him and then looked worriedly in the direction of the Death Star Abyss, "Why hasn't General Melinda returned yet …"
