When he heard the engine of the airship, Allen immediately said in a deep voice, "Get down and hide."
There were a few natural stalagmites in this cave as pillars, and it was enough to use as a temporary mask. Lola picked up Talikova like a kitten and flew behind a stalagmite, while Belmond pushed Hubble to hide in another. Allen pounced to the edge of the cave and carefully stuck to the cold ground, only poking out a pair of eyes to look outside. At this moment, the sky outside the cave was completely dark, but the night in the mountains did not seem pitch-black. On the contrary, the night was illuminated by countless pillars of light.
High in the sky above the mountains, Catus' combat airships were flying past like shuttles. They cast down pillars of light that continuously streaked across the ground, illuminating every corner of the mountains. Allen tried his best to see that the distant sky in the direction of the wilderness was occupied by a dark cloud. The dark cloud was made up of many flying ships. Inside, there were also a few huge motherships. The hull of the ship flickered with light, and from afar, it looked like lightning flashing in dark clouds.
In the depths of the dark cloud, when Allen focused his attention in that direction, he suddenly felt his heart palpitate. His heart rate accelerated, his throat was dry, and his hair stood on end. However, with a single gaze, Allen's Origin Energy had actually disappeared a little, and even his aura had weakened quite a bit.
"What's going on?" Belmond keenly noticed the change in his body.
Allen smiled bitterly, "It's the Catus' fleet. Of course there won't be any Grai Giants. What's worse is that the other party seems to have a big fellow. "
"Big fellow?"
"A terrifying expert. I only came into contact with the edge of his aura, and I felt like I was about to be engulfed. I wonder if it's the Prison Flame Giant, or … "Allen revealed a strange expression," Could it be the Hate Giant Crossia? "
He didn't know that he had guessed correctly.
"Why are the Catus here?" Belmond frowned and said, "Could it be that they are going to attack the Blackrock Stronghold?"
The closest place to this place was the Blackrock Stronghold. Apart from it, Belmond could not think of any other target to attack. Allen looked outside again. The dark clouds that were entrenched in the Withered Wasteland did not show any signs of moving, but combat airships were constantly leaving at the edge. They formed a loose fleet and were indeed moving in the direction of the Black Rock Stronghold. But among them, there was also a small fleet that entered the mountains.
At this moment, a sound like the roar of a giant beast resounded in the sky. Allen raised his head and saw a beam of light shining down. He quickly retracted his hand and carefully scanned the corner. The sky outside the cave was blocked by a large flying ship. The hull of the ship was very large. It did not look like a battleship, but more like a transport flying ship. Just as he had this thought, he saw the bottom of the hull slowly open. The lift deck pointed obliquely at the ground, and then Catu warriors rushed out from within. They screamed and roared as they charged into the void, crashing into the ground in freefall.
It was indeed a transport airship.
The distance between the airship and the ground was less than a hundred meters. At this distance, the thick-skinned Catus would not be able to smash them to death even if they jumped down. The airship slowly slid across the sky, sprinkling countless Catu warriors into every corner of the mountain like sowing seeds. Muffled collisions could be heard from outside. After the Catu warriors smashed into the ground, they usually shook their heads and got up. There were also a few unlucky ones who knocked into the corners of the mountain, causing their heads to bleed, or even be seriously injured. However, those were very few, and most of the warriors only suffered minor injuries that did not hinder them. They got up from where they were and began to flood the mountains like a tide.
Seeing this, Allen retracted and whispered, "Looks like we should go."
Obviously, Allen's decision was right. A few minutes after they quietly left the cave under the cover of the night, intense gunfire suddenly sounded less than a hundred meters away from the cave. From the sound of gunfire, it did not sound like a beam of light weapon. The dull accent was more like the roar of a physical machine gun. The sound of gunfire attracted a portion of the nearby Catu warriors, and these berserk warriors immediately rushed in the direction of the source of the sound. However, this was only a small group of people in the entire mountain army, like a wave like the sea. The other warriors continued to advance according to the plan. On their path, those dangerous species with no eyes quickly turned into corpses.
Flames continued to flash between a mountain top.
Those blazing, bright flames were fire snakes shot out by physical machine guns. They spat out flame whips that swept back and forth, and they were even more obvious in the dark night. As for those strips that were crisscrossing between the mountains, they were the handiwork of beam weapons. These weapons were basically owned by the Catus, and they were also activated by Origin Energy to shoot. Often, a Catu warrior would have to rest for a while after firing a dozen shots. However, the Catus were superior in numbers. The archers took turns to attack, and the Origin Energy beam almost pressed down on the hilltop to bombard them.
On the commanding heights of the battlefield were Rice and Twain's group. They had originally found Allen's hiding place according to the traces left behind by Lola, wanting to surprise Allen. Unexpectedly, the foreign fleet suddenly arrived, and a few transport airships entered the mountains, scattering the Catus like seeds. Rice and his group had quite a few people, and they quickly exposed their targets and were attacked by the Catus' firepower.
Explosive clouds of fire and destructive beams of Origin Energy continuously lit up the position. Rice stood in the midst of the hail of bullets. He held an assault rifle in each hand and was crazily pouring his firepower down the position, suppressing the attack of a small group of Catus. For an expert like him, it would have been more efficient to kill them in close combat. However, there were too many enemies, and Doris had no choice but to restrain his madness and regain the caution he had forgotten. He used guns and ammunition to represent the consumption of Origin Energy. After all, no one knew how long this war would last.
His two second lieutenants and seven or eight non-commissioned officers formed a resilient line of defense, occupying one side of the mountain and forcefully stopping the Catus from charging at the position. On the other side, Dawn and his men were also fighting, while Maria flashed among the Catus. The bald woman would often return to the position to rest after charging for a while, and occasionally, Twain would personally take action. The transformed colonel was extremely powerful, and a few punches were comparable to a saturated bombardment of heavy artillery, causing the Catu warriors to turn upside down.
However, the situation was still disadvantageous to Rice and the others. In the end, it was because there were too many enemies. Even if they could kill a thousand or even thousands of people. However, judging from the lineup of the opponent's fleet, it was not difficult to judge that this army had at least 100,000 people. Even if Rice, a man with the strength of a general, was here, it would be impossible for him to eat such a large army. When the ammunition was exhausted, they would have to fight in close combat, and at that time, there would be deaths. When all of their subordinates died, Rice and Dawn would not be far from death.
They didn't want to die, so after Rice finished a magazine, he shouted at Twain, "Baldy, let's retreat! I can't hold on any longer. "
It was rare for Dawn not to curse back. He only asked, "What about that noble young master? Don't care?"
"Nonsense, we can't even protect ourselves. Why do we care so much?" Rice roared, "If you don't leave, I'm going to leave. Damn it, what are these bastards doing? Why did they suddenly appear … Eh!"
Rice suddenly jumped up and roared, his entire body surging with Origin Energy. Dense blood energy immediately penetrated his body, almost enveloping the entire mountaintop. At this moment, an extremely pitch-black ball of light appeared in the sky. This dark ball of light silently descended. The surface of the ball of light continuously surged, and then a series of black beams of light shot out like cannons. The beams of light flew and turned, like a school of bloodthirsty sharks pouncing on their prey, surging towards the position where Rice and the others were.
Black beams of light continuously struck Rice's blood energy barrier. The two different types of Origin Energy canceled each other out. The blood barrier was like a piece of jelly, constantly undulating and churning from the black beam of light. However, a round of shots was finally blocked by Rice. Rice roared angrily, squatted down to his limit, and then suddenly exerted his strength. Suddenly, his entire body soared into the sky like a cannonball, instantly shooting into the night.
Dawn looked over and saw a tall figure floating under the curtain of night. It was a giant with a surging black aura.
Dark Titan!
Rice pounced on the Dark Titan. The size of the two sides was very different, but the power that erupted from them was equal. Suddenly, several enormous blood-red bolts of lightning flashed under the curtain of night. These bolts of lightning were like the claws of giant beasts, scratching a wound in the sky. Wherever the bloody light passed, it condensed and did not dissipate. Surging flames continuously gushed out from within, as if the sky was spraying blood. Suddenly, another black cloud exploded, colliding with the bloodstains, immediately triggering a series of explosions.
A moment later, Rice landed back and waved his hand. The dozen or so Catu warriors who had just pounced onto the high ground suddenly flickered with bloody light. Their bodies froze for a moment, and then they split into pieces.
At this moment, a thunderous roar sounded in the night, and a black shadow quickly left. The Dark Titan was repelled by Rice, but large amounts of blood continuously splashed down on the giant's path of departure. The giant's blood was pitch-black like oil. When it landed on the rocks, vegetation, and even the bodies of the Catu warriors, it suddenly ignited without any fire. As a result, a corridor of flames appeared in the mountain area in the dark night. The corridor pointed in the direction where the Dark Titan had left.
The flames shone on Rice's body. Only a small half of his battle uniform remained, and there were still weak but tenacious black flames burning on his body. Only after being rushed by Rice's Origin Energy did the remaining flames extinguish. He looked at Dawn and ordered his subordinates to retreat. Instead of retreating, he charged towards the Catu warriors and started a massacre. It wasn't that Rice cherished his subordinates that much, but at this time, minimizing the number of deaths was equivalent to increasing his chances of survival.
Rice's charge stopped the Catus' attack, and Dawn took the opportunity to withdraw his team. After the bald colonel withdrew from the position, he suddenly raised his hand in Rice's direction. His shoulder suddenly bulged, and a launcher rose. There were three scarlet pocket-sized missiles in the launcher. Dawn shouted, "If you don't want to die, get back here!"
Then the missile was fired.
