Chapter 505: Chapter 49: The Fall of Two Women

Lieutenant General Allen has been managing the base for more than a decade, and certainly had some loyal subordinates. Moreover, his character and reputation were well-liked. Hence, those self-proclaimed members of the Justice League, led by Marcus, had gathered around him. They were all outraged upon hearing Pang Tuoke’s plan and prepared to eliminate them. Unfortunately, their plan, which took three days to devise, was thwarted by Tang Zheng and his gang.

Allen had many people on his side, and their sudden attack certainly caught the security team off guard. However, Tang Zheng and his team were too strong, especially Dantai and Qin Yan, whose shots were lethal. Even Pang Meiqin’s marksmanship had improved a great deal. She aimed only at valuable targets to save her Thunderballs.

Watching human bodies explode put tremendous pressure on them.

Dom led a small team and was at the forefront. He was targeted by Pang Meiqin, whose shot turned his upper body into a meat sauce.

"Dom." Marcus looked at his subordinates falling one by one, his eyes turning red. They should have died on the battlefield against the Beastmen, not like this in infighting!

"Tang Zheng, what the hell are you thinking? Why are you hesitating at this time?" Gao Yu shouted at Tang Zheng as he held a gun in his one hand. "Stop babbling and use your ability to wipe them out. Do you want to see Pang Tuoke killed?"

"I’ll go. Take care of my wife for me." Chu Baichuan grabbed Qin Yan’s arm, handed Ai Yixin over to her and then rushed towards the door. "Dantai, use a mental shock."

Dantai, his eyes wide open, faced the direction of the enemy’s attack. As Chu Baichuan charged into the hallway, three successive invisible shock waves were launched, causing the masked soldiers to halt, even the sound of gunshots slightly ceased.

"Have a taste of my ultimate ability." Chu Baichuan didn’t care who he was facing. Anything that threatened his wife would be killed. He grabbed a corpse from the ground, threw it to the side of the hallway, and then ignited his ability. An intense explosion that quickly turned into a scorching wave of heat, much like a Fire Dragon, instantly filled the hallway.

After the flames, everything was scorched black. The corpses were all vaporized into charcoal.

Chu Baichuan discarded the shattered corpse, grabbed another, and triggered another explosion. When activating his ability, he could control the direction and range of the explosion, and would not be hurt by his own ability. He indeed had the most powerful offensive ability.

Hearing the panicked shouts of the surviving enemies, Pang Meiqin couldn’t help but feel envious. If she could steal Chu Baichuan’s ability, she wouldn’t have to be so anxious and could easily crush her opponents.

"Carmine." Seeing Carmine being swallowed by the fire and burned into charcoal, Marcus roared. While shooting at Chu Baichuan, he signaled his subordinates to retreat. There was no choice, the enemy was too strong. In just the initial encounter, he had lost a third of his troops. If the building hadn’t been too small to accommodate more soldiers, he would have lost even more men.

"Quick, retreat." Kaia, holding back tears, grabbed an injured comrade by his collar and dragged him into a room.

Tang Zheng and Dantai also exited the room. They needed to capture Allen alive, as who knows what he might do if he knew his coup had failed. By this time, the commotion within the building had already attracted the attention of the soldiers around it and it was becoming difficult to keep things under wraps.

With rapid psychic assaults repeatedly launched by Dantai, and the waning morale of the enemies, it was easy for them to take them down. Finally, on the second floor of the building, they encountered Allen.

"You butchers, you’ll all pay dearly." Lieutenant General Allen pointed at the security team and cursed, not sparing even Tang Zheng and his company.

With over twenty soldiers shielding Allen as he retreated, Chu Baichuan picked up a corpse by its head and threw it. The corpse exploded in a shower of blood and flesh, and the three charged through.

Tang Zheng showed no mercy with his Thunderstorm rifle, killing all soldiers who tried to block his way. A group of soldiers rushed anxiously from afar, hoping to support Allen.

Tang Zheng threw a flash grenade, buying a little time to finally capture Allen.

"Drop your weapons, or I’ll kill him." Chu Baichuan repeated his old trick, but the soldiers were more concerned about their own fate and did not comply.

"Surrender your weapons, and you will be spared. Your enemy should be the Beastmen." Tang Zheng kept his finger on the trigger, ready to kill if they showed any signs of hostility.

"Your words mean nothing." A colonel, struggling, squeezed out a sentence.

"What about mine?" The bespectacled Admiral came down with two colonels, unafraid of the mutinous troops, but evidently irritated. These elite soldiers should not be wasted here.

Looking at the corpses strewn all over, the faces of the two colonels contorted in pain.

"John, I need to see Pang Tuoke." Lieutenant General Allen had lost his composure. His hair was in disarray, and he looked like a lost dog. But he hadn’t given up. "Even if I die, I want to curse him a few times."

"Allen, give it up. Even if your coup had succeeded, it would’ve only thrown the base into further chaos, extinguishing the last sparks of humanity." Admiral John stepped to Allen’s side, helping him adjust the shoulder patch that had been knocked askew. "The Yim energy bomb was set to explode a week ago."

"After watching these days of fighting, do you still think humanity can stop the Beastmen?" A colonel accused Allen, then turned to the Admiral. "Admiral, time is short. We must organize our soldiers to counterattack and suppress any potential threats this rebellion may cause."
