The order of the chief staff officer of the fleet made the sergeants in the flagship's steering cabin feel as though they had been granted amnesty. Hastily, they increased the power of the spacecraft's engine to the maximum and quickly turned the ship around. Breaking through the clouds in the sky, they headed towards the distant world passage.
Originally, if these Atlantean warriors fought bravely in one go, they would not feel afraid even if they died. However, once they began to flee, their blood cooled down and they began to feel more and more nervous and terrified instead.
"Calm down! Fly in an irregular wave. Don't let the enemy predict our retreat trajectory." Sensing the strange atmosphere in the cockpit, the fleet staff officer said loudly, "The fleet is very close to the space passage. We'll soon be able to …" Before he could finish his words, he was suddenly choked by an incomparably huge palm that flipped up from the bottom in the three-dimensional pattern in front of him.
The palm was made of mountain rocks, and when Karim got closer, he could see that the surface of the palm was densely covered with tall trees that looked like hair. After it appeared, Karim's pupils kept enlarging, and in the end, it completely covered his sight. With a loud bang, he lost consciousness forever.
"An ant-like existence actually dares to hurt me …" Standing in front of the observation window in the crystal room of the 'Ancient One's' eye socket, Zhang Lisheng, who was completely naked, looked down at the last burn on his chest that was slowly healing under the nourishment of the muddy water as he muttered, "How dare an ant-like existence hurt me …"
After venting the anger in his chest and using this to show his stance, he immediately ordered, "All skybeasts, stop chasing and let those outlanders go."
At this time, other than the young man, there was no longer any living creature in the 'Ancient One.' The Wizard Li warriors who were driving the giant biological weapons had long been turned into steam by the enemy's main artillery attack. However, under the surge of divine power, the Wizard Li god's order still naturally rose in the believers' hearts.
At once, the ancient battleships that were baring their fangs came to a halt. The mouthparts that were constantly wriggling horrifically turned back into bright spots, allowing the two outlanders' little skybeasts to disappear into the sky.
Just like this, the Wizard Li Island in the Shrimp World No. 2 regained its tranquility, leaving only the wreckage of the spaceship that had turned into a pile of scrap iron mountain that was emitting thick black smoke in the air.
The brutality of the war seemed to have vanished without a trace in the sunny weather. However, a few hours later, in the evening, smoke rose again on the island. Hundreds of iron steamships, filled with native warriors riding giant millispiders and earth dragons, surrounded the port of Earth's garrison on the deck, shouting and yelling.
In the face of the Hellfire people's provocation, the US army adopted an extremely restrained attitude and did not respond at all …
Late at night, the originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dense rain clouds. The stars in the sky disappeared without a trace in just a few minutes, as if a miserable wind and rain were about to arrive.
In a spacious and dark office in the underground fortress of the Wizard Li Island's human gathering place that had just been restarted, a federal officer with a square face due to his abnormally developed masticatory muscles was frowning as he walked back and forth, staring at several dozens of monitor projections from different angles and directions on the snow-white wall while puffing on a cigarette.
"White, stop looking! I've already said that we don't have any chance!" Upon seeing him pacing back and forth silently with the cigarette butt flickering between his fingers, filling the entire room with smoke, a tall black officer sitting on a chair stood up to turn on the wall lamp and the ventilation fan before saying in a low voice.
When the light turned on, the square-faced officer closed his eyes and suddenly exploded, "It's all those damn bureaucratic Department of Defense staff's fault! Even if I'm given an Ohio-class submarine, we won't be so passive! This is f * cking hell!"
"We're nominally the foreign world's garrison force, but in fact, we're just a large intelligence collection station. It's already good enough that my colleagues in the Department of Defense can equip us with a C-grade sea and land combat unit.
What's more, even if you have a submarine, are you sure you can compete with those demon warships that came from hell? Don't forget that even the Atlanteans are no match for those monster warships! " The black officer said disapprovingly. It seemed that he was already used to being in danger and did not care at all.
"Don't mention those despicable and cunning Atlanteans! They're the biggest trouble …" The square-faced officer roared. Before he could finish his words, the office door was suddenly pushed open. A youthful and beautiful female non-commissioned officer ran in excitedly and shouted without rhyme or reason, "Lieutenant Colonel, someone wants to see you …"
For the first time, the square-faced officer, who had always found his young and beautiful female secretary pleasing to the eye, felt irritated when he saw her blushing face. Using her full name, he shouted, "Marian Halina, you're a professional federal soldier and a professional secretary! Don't tell me that you can't even understand the simplest instructions?
I've already said that I'm studying with Major Leo on how to deal with those aborigines on the island who are about to throw us into the frying pan and make us into hamburgers. Before we discuss the countermeasures, we're not going to see anyone unless the aborigines launch an attack. Are you that forgetful? "
Having never heard the officer speak in such a tone before, the female secretary was stunned for a moment before replying in a tongue-tied manner, "Lieutenant Colonel, y-you don't have to think about how to deal with those aborigines anymore. They've already evacuated the harbor. We're safe now."
"What?" The eyes of the two federal colonel-level officers in the office lit up at the same time. White blurted out in shock, "The indigenous steamship fleet has left? What happened? How could they possibly leave just like that?"
"Sir, it's very bizarre. Just now, the observation post brought a very young Asian to the gathering place inexplicably and then the indigenous fleet that blocked the harbor retreated." A puzzled expression also appeared on Marian's face. "Other than saying that he wants to see you, that Asian didn't say anything else. The guards searched him and didn't find any weapons at all, and …"
"Asian? A very young Asian? Could it be him …" White pondered for a few seconds before suddenly interrupting the secretary's chattering and said thoughtfully, "Marian, bring that Asian to see me."
"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel." The female secretary was stunned for a moment before walking out of the office. Not long after, she brought a black-haired and black-eyed young man wearing an old orange jacket to White. Then, she asked hopefully, "Sir, do you still want me to record your conversation?"
"Thank you, but there's no need for that, Marian. You can leave now."
"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel." There was a disappointed expression in the secretary's eyes as she walked out of the office full of questions. Watching her leave, the black-haired young man let out a long sigh of relief. With a smile, he reached out his hand to White and said in a profound tone, "It's been a long time, Lieutenant Colonel White. I remember that you were still a pure federal soldier the last time we met …"
"Good evening, Dr. Zhang …" The young man in front of him was the legendary figure in his imagination. However, White opened his mouth but realized that he really did not know what else to say other than greeting him. After a long silence, he shook hands with the young man stiffly and said with a firm voice, "Doctor, I was, am, and will always be a pure federal soldier. I'm not an Earthling soldier. There's no doubt about this."
"This is the best news I've heard recently. In that case, please tell me, Lieutenant Colonel, what's happening on Earth? Is the elected government still leading the US now?
Why would the Atlantean warships come to Wizard Li Island to provoke us with malice? " The black-haired young man asked in a deep voice. Seeing that he was about to cleverly seize the right to speak, the tall black officer by the side suddenly raised two fingers and knocked on the oval conference table before saying, "Dr. Zhang Lisheng, I also want to ask you the same question. What's happening on Shrimp B1 Island?
Why would a biochemical warship suddenly appear and defeat the Atlantean fleet? "
"Who is this Mr. Major?" Zhang Lisheng turned his head to look at the black soldier who spoke and asked White.
"I'm Leo, Jonathan Leo, the intelligence collector of the federal garrison in Shrimp World No. 2. I'm responsible for the preliminary screening of the foreign world's intelligence and classifying them," Leo answered first. With a friendly attitude that was completely different from his aggressive tone, he extended his hand to the young man.
"Oh, another federal intelligence officer. I don't know why, but the federal officials who have the deepest contact with me in the past one or two years are all 'spies.'" Zhang Lisheng shook hands with the black officer. "Don't worry, Major Leo. You've done a good job in collecting intelligence. There's no dereliction of duty at all. It's not some biological fleet that defeated the Atlanteans but a 'god's creation.'
The god of Shrimp World No. 2 has awakened from the 'dusk.' The god who created the Hellfire civilization has already obtained the support of the Wizard Li tribe and is about to unify the entire sea region to spy on the mainland. The Atlantean fleet can be said to have kicked a steel plate this time. "
"It's almost the same as my other prediction." Leo did not show a very surprised expression. Instead, he smiled wryly. "A war between the commander of a foreign world and the fleet of an advanced alien civilization is even more bizarre than The Lord of the Rings."
"I've already said it a few years ago that we're living in a crazy era where all sorts of strange things can happen." Zhang Lisheng pretended to have a bitter smile as well. "Due to the invasion of the Atlanteans, the Wizard Li God's priests wanted to kill all the outlanders on the island. It's a good thing that I still have some status in the tribe, so it took me a lot of effort to finally stop them.
However, before dawn, all the federal garrison troops must leave the Wizard Li Island and are not allowed to set foot on the island anymore. "
"As expected, the native fleet did not withdraw for no reason." Upon hearing Zhang Lisheng's words, White also smiled wryly. "Thank you, Doctor.
Leo, we're no match for the native army. Since they've given us an ultimatum, we can only leave with our tails between our legs like rats. "
