Chapter 433: Chapter 206: They Fought to Conquer the Portal

This battle has been going on for a while now, and Wang Jixuan’s side is generally faring quite well.

They easily lured the Beast Speaker out from underground, with the Buddhist Temple Team deploying the Seven Star Sword Formation, and Wang Jixuan’s sneaky attacks on the side, causing the Beast Speaker to die an extremely frustrated death.

The resentful soul of the Beast Speaker even sent a wave of blessings to Master Wang and the Buddhist Temple Team after its death.

Later, when Wang Jixuan went to blow up the King-level Preacher, it was also due to his excellent cooperation with Wu Man. Wang Jixuan sacrificed his flying sword to kill the King-level Preacher outright.

Unfortunately, the enemy didn’t die off completely.

On the battlefield created by the Blade Beasts using the fake interstellar gate, the situation is on the other extreme.

The human camp is in dire peril.

Red Snake has been taking constant hits;

The reinforcements assembled from various fortresses mostly went to support Huangli High Ground No. 39 Fortress, which is on the verge of falling.

Today, a tragic scenario of fortress annihilation is highly likely to happen.

Now, the only way to prevent the tragedy from worsening and to protect more fortresses is for the assault team led by Black Shell to enter underground and try to close or destroy the [Fake Interstellar Gate].

In the ground battles, sufficient fire support kept the casualties within a relatively good expectation.

But once they enter underground...

Long-range fire support will become ineffective;

The all-terrain drones they’re equipped with are far outnumbered by the Blade Beasts;

The subsequent combat is going to be very tough.

Black Shell again urged Wang Jixuan, wanting him and the Half-human Mecha Team to pilot the mechas and stay on the surface and shallow strata to guard their retreat.

Wang Jixuan worried that he too would be overwhelmed by the Blade Beast Tide, running out of mana, and ultimately dying a horrible death.

But there was no choice;

The firepower of humanity’s technological side had no effect on that door; that door could only be attempted by him to break its Prohibition—the [circuit] as mentioned by the Blade Beasts and Spirit Cultivators.

Daoist is not a dithering person.

Besides, he had many ways out.

When his cultivation was nowhere near its current level, he entered the immature nest of the Young King Worm alone, with a gun and a set of Devil Skill, in and out seven times, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent surge of his Spiritual Power.

He, as he is today, can replicate that scene.

Although the Moluo Heavenly Slaughter Technique is limited and using it too much risks falling to the Demon Path, his Dragon Python Swallowing Sky Technique also possesses the ’the more you fight, the braver you become’ trait.

——It can continuously devour the Blade Beast Crystal Core Residual Souls to replenish himself.

Even if he has to use the Moluo Heavenly Slaughter Technique, a high-grade Demonic Skill, he wouldn’t necessarily fall completely to the demon. He only needs to take the necessary measures; after the battle, he can ’maim’ himself using Medical Skill to likely pull himself back from the brink of the Demon Path.

When Cultivators act, sometimes it’s not about whether it’s worth it, but whether they’re willing.

"Let’s go down together."

Wang Jixuan replied thus to Black Shell, his voice sounding quite relaxed:

"Having fought my way here, how could I sound the retreat?

"Let Lingtong guard on the surface. She didn’t bring other equipment, only her fifteen-meter-tall exclusive mecha, which isn’t suitable for underground combat."

"Lingtong was supposed to guard the surface anyway."

Black Shell clicked his tongue:

"You really remind me of the Commander in his youth, having a kind of reassuring energy. Fine, I won’t urge you any further... All assault teams, on my command!"

This instructor devised a rotating spearhead tactic.

From their starting point to the underground fake interstellar gate, there’s a total rush distance of two thousand six hundred and seventy-two meters.

There are four or five sections where they need to blast open tunnels.

The Buddhist Temple Team, the Peak Maids, and the Half-human Mecha Team led by Black Shell, are three spearheads.

Three hundred high-level Autonomous Mechanisms and one hundred and ninety elite Special Team members are the back and handle of the knife.

They will carry three portable nuclear bombs. The explosive yield is roughly the same as the one previously released by Wang Jixuan with his flying sword, falling under the category of tactical nuclear bombs.

Although the number of the assault team attacking the gate seems small, in reality, there’s a large number of drones in coordination, controlled by the ground teams.

The cost of this mission is unprecedented.

The one hundred and ninety Special Team elites are clad in full-coverage standard armor, with pressure resistance and oxygen supply, independent energy systems, providing strong protection, equipped with Light Blades and laser cannons.

And the expected casualty rate of this operation is over 70%.

The assault team only has eight minutes to prepare.

Lingtong didn’t converse with Wang Jixuan; she doesn’t bring personal relations into her work.

Her Half-human Mecha Team was already striking out in all directions, with their current firepower, consolidating their position without any pressure.

In a few minutes, Wang Jixuan accessed a new command channel, also losing command authority.

From now on, Black Shell is the only commander.

The voice of this veteran instructor is still as calm and steady, occasionally spiced with profanity:

"Remember your own number; my team is Spearhead 01, Wang Zheng and his wingman team are Spearhead 02, those weirdos are Spearhead 03."

Zheng Shiduo rarely spoke with a serious tone: "We shouldn’t use nicknames during battle."

"How the hell was I supposed to know who gave you that crappy name! What? Can’t I call you by your nickname?"

Black Shell cursed a couple of times, and Zheng Shiduo shut up meekly.

Wang Jixuan looked towards Mu Dan beside him.

Mu Dan, with her cute face hidden behind the armor, flashed a mischievous smile.

"I have some not-so-good news."

Black Shell muttered:

"Huangli High Ground No. 39 Fortress might not hold for ten more minutes, so let’s not feel overly pressured by time. Let’s consider that fortress already destroyed. What we need to do now is destroy this gate to prevent more Blade Beasts from being transmitted to our rear... This gate can currently transmit about six thousand Blade Beasts per minute."
