Chapter 184: Chapter 142 Intermediate Support Mission, the Fallen Earth Dragon Star, Arrival, Instant Kill!_2

"The factions haven’t sent any fifth-grade Transcendent yet?"

Zhang Lei’s face was extremely gloomy as he spoke in a low voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a heavy silence. No one answered his question. At this moment, not only were they struggling to hold on, but even their communication had been disrupted by the Void Insect Race.

They couldn’t reach the outside, and the outside couldn’t reach them.

"It was clearly just a preliminary mission initially. Why would a fifth-grade Hive Tyrant emerge? Dammit, what exactly are those school intelligence departments doing!"

Zhang Lei punched the city wall and said through gritted teeth.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. What we need to focus on now is how to hold on under the upcoming invasion of the Void Insect Race until the school sends a fifth-grade Transcendent to support us. That is the most important thing!"

Xia Xun, who had been silent all the way, suddenly spoke up.

"Hold on? How do we hold on? That’s a fifth-grade being. Even our strongest, City Lord Huang, is only at the late fourth-grade. Against the Hive Tyrant, we don’t stand a chance!"

Zhang Lei interrupted Xia Xun without hesitation, his voice sharp.

Xia Xun’s brows furrowed slightly as he glanced at Zhang Lei before turning his gaze towards the scenery outside the Seventh Survival Base.

In a wasteland, rows of dust clouds raised. Soon, at the edge of his vision, a hint of purple quietly appeared.

Xia Xun’s face darkened involuntarily. The Insect Race... was about to launch an attack.

"How to hold on? Hasn’t the Life Factions taught you at all?"

Xia Xun didn’t bother arguing with Zhang Lei any further. He turned to Huang Tianhuan and said in a deep voice, "City Lord Huang, is the base’s array still functional?"

Huang Tianhuan said with a bitter smile, "When the Insect Race arrived, the array of every survival base was already destroyed and cut off. Even though our Seventh Survival Base was the last to be hit, the array still hasn’t been fully repaired. Currently... it can only last for at most half an hour!"

Xia Xun’s frown deepened, and he sighed lightly, "Activate the array first. No matter what... we have to try to buy time until the support arrives!"

Huang Tianhuan nodded, then quickly issued orders for the array to be activated.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!!

A series of humming sounds suddenly rang out, followed by the sudden activation of a layer of azure shield that enveloped the entire Seventh Survival Base.

Just as the array activated, the distant purple tide surged towards the Seventh Survival Base in a massive wave.

Rumble!!!

Countless Void Insect Race trampled the ground, causing the earth to tremble and kicking up dust in clouds.

The purple Void Insect Race, like a purple tide, crazily surged towards the Seventh Survival Base.

They seemed fearless of death, continuously crashing into the shield. The energy shield, which wasn’t fully repaired, shook under the relentless impact of countless Void Insect Race.

In some energy-depleted areas, cracks began to appear.

"It’s bad. These Void Insect Race, under the control of the Hive Tyrant, are fearless of death. At their present rate of attack... our array can only last for ten minutes!"

Huang Tianhuan’s face changed drastically, crying out in alarm.

At these words, Zhang Lei and others’ faces turned even darker.

Even Xia Xun’s brows were filled with worry.

Ten minutes, what good will that do?

"Are we... really going to be buried under the insect tide?"

Mu Qingqing’s delicate body trembled slightly, her face showing a deathly pale expression.

Unable to contact the outside world and unaware if the support mission had been received, now the array could only hold for ten minutes.

Once the energy of the array dissipates, in this tide-like swarm, even as fourth-grade Transcendents, they couldn’t hold on for too long.

A sense of despair spread from the city wall, affecting even the ordinary humans within the Seventh Survival Base.

"It’s over... Earth Dragon Star is completely finished..."

"We’re all going to die; we’re all going to be eaten by these insects!"

Some common people curled up in their homes, hugging their children, their bodies trembling uncontrollably as despairing tears flowed.

Some people rushed into the streets, hysterically shouting.

"I don’t want to die! Quick, open the shield, let me out, let me out!!"

"I don’t want to die, please, save me, I really don’t want to die!"

The fourth-grade Transcendents on the city wall were already in despair, and the ordinary people were even more helpless, only feeling greater despair.

For a moment, the entire Seventh Survival Base echoed with cries of despair.

The voices reached the city wall, making Zhang Lei and the others look even grimmer. Looking at the Void Insect Race madly attacking the shield like moths to a flame, and the gradually dimming glow of the array, despair enveloped their minds.

"It’s over!"

Zhang Lei sat down on the ground. Despite being a fourth-grade Transcendent, he had no will to resist at this moment.

Dense Void Insect Race was enough to make any fourth-grade Transcendent tremble in fear, even without the Hive Tyrant appearing!

Standing on the city wall, Xia Xun clenched and unclenched his fists, taking several deep breaths until his eyes gradually showed determination.
