Chapter 186: Chapter 186 Ilyas (Second Release)

"These guys, they actually entered the base while we were blocking them."

Begfin was also somewhat surprised.

"That’s perfect, let’s block them and trap them inside the base, wipe them all out!"

Irelia’s eyes flashed slightly as she gave the order decisively.

"I’ll gather everyone right now."

Begfin’s expression turned severe as he responded solemnly.

"Yes!"

Irelia nodded in agreement.

Soon, all the personnel on the battlefield gathered together, and Irelia led them towards the south gate of the Terra Royal Base.

....

Terra Royal Base - Central Area on the Second Floor.

Timi and Dirken, piloting Fourth Generation Mechas, led Ai Yin and the rest of the surviving troops to successfully escape.

Suddenly, there was a loud booming sound!

A mechanical lift platform nearby dropped a dark shadow, which heavily smashed onto the ground.

As the dust settled, a Lord-level Chilami IV could also be seen descending, landing fiercely and roaring as it opened its mouth.

"Run!"

Timi’s face changed slightly as he led everyone in a mad dash down the main corridor.

At that moment, the Lord-level Chilami IV caught up in a frenzy, violently tearing apart any slower mechas.

"Lord Timi, it’s got us tightly in its grip, what should we do?"

Anxious inquiries kept coming over the communication channel.

Timi was also somewhat frustrated at this moment, as the good situation had been completely messed up in an instant.

Just then, Dirken suddenly shouted surprisingly to Timi.

"Timi, look ahead!"

Hearing Dirken’s words, Timi suddenly looked up ahead.

At the end of the main corridor was a huge metal gate, which was wide open, and cold air continuously emerged from inside.

"Let’s go in!"

Timi didn’t hesitate for a second before issuing the command.

"Understood!"

Ai Yin and the others responded one after another.

They all sped up and rushed in.

As they entered through the gate, their entire field of vision suddenly opened up.

They found themselves in a circular laboratory equipped with various advanced mechanical devices, and in the center of this laboratory, there was a gigantic square metal platform.

Standing on the metal platform was a three-hundred-meter-tall giant bio-glass container, with numerous tubes inserted into the top of the container.

Inside the container, a mass of black cellular material was frozen, resembling a black heart beating continuously, and its surface emitted a strange active luster.

In front of the metal platform, there was a virtual image screen constantly scrolling with real-time monitoring information.

V-type Heroic-level Chilami Mother · Ilyas.

Kais biological reaction value: 75411 (Suppressed)

Life activity monitoring: Weak

Number of divisions: 173 times

...

"What is this?"

Timi stared at the centrally frozen Chilami, completely stunned.

Dirken was not much better; looking at the frozen Chilami mother in front of him, his fingers trembled slightly. A V-type Heroic-level Chilami, a terrifying presence on the battlefield, was actually imprisoned here by the Federation, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

As for Ai Yin and the others, they were too astonished to speak, their faces filled with disbelief.

Just then, a loud explosion came from outside the laboratory.

"Not good, a monster has caught up!"

Dirken regained his senses and spoke.

Timi glanced at the frozen Heroic-level·Chilami Ilyas and said,

"We have no way out, intercept them! If we let them destroy this place, we’ll surely die here, so we might as well fight."

"That’s right, and those monsters have scattered while chasing us; we might not necessarily lose."

Colonel Dirken added,

"Yes, sir!"

Ai Yin and the others responded solemnly.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Timi quickly started to rearrange the personnel, preparing to intercept the enemy at the laboratory entrance.

....

At this moment, on the second floor of the Terra Royal Base, in another corridor,

a forty-meter tall creature with a pair of black flesh wings, a moth’s head with bulbous eyes, and a mosquito-like body with two sharp scythes, extended a long spike from its mouth. The IV-type Chilami genetic variant·Blood Mosquito turned its head at a fork in the road.

Its crimson eyes suddenly lit up, and its abdomen swelled up like a balloon.

Then, its tail released clusters of black cellular eggs, which rapidly differentiated and morphed into smaller blood mosquito forms.

Swoosh!

These small blood mosquitoes scattered in all directions with the flapping of their wings.

....

Elsewhere, accompanied by the ticking sound, the doors of the manned elevator opened.

Su Ming and his two companions, each armed with a portable beam pistol, stepped out.

They looked around, scanning the emptiness; they saw no sign of any person or monster.

"This way!"

Su Ming then led Lin Chuyu and the other, heading toward the left corridor.

Lin Chuyu followed closely behind him.

Their current location was the second floor’s man-made area, densely packed with archives, medical rooms, and other areas.

Thus, the roads were intricate with many turns.

But this did not trouble Su Ming; he led Chuyu, twisting and turning, taking the optimal route to the edge of the blank area.

However, as Su Ming led the two past the mecha-specialized passageway, he was especially cautious; after ensuring it was safe, he rushed past with them.

Nevertheless, as they approached closer to the blank area, a loud explosion sounded in the distance.

Lin Chuyu’s heart slightly tightened, and he said worriedly,

"Su Ming, there are monsters nearby, and they’re getting closer to us."

"Don’t worry, only high-level Chilamis are inside this base; their large size should prevent them from entering the man-made area," Su Ming pondered and replied.

"That makes sense."

Lin Chuyu nodded.

"Plus, we’re not far from our destination; we’ll arrive soon."

Su Ming briefly calculated the distance and continued speaking to Lin Chuyu.

However, just as he finished speaking and was turning left along the road, the three suddenly stopped in their tracks, stunned.

Just a hundred meters ahead in the corridor, a three-meter-sized II-type Chilami Blood Mosquito hovered in mid-air.

"Run!"

Su Ming’s expression altered, and he immediately turned to run back with Lin Chuyu.

It really upheld the saying that speaking too confidently can jinx things.

At that moment, the II-type Chilami Blood Mosquito’s crimson eyes lit up, and it rapidly pursued Su Ming and his companions.

Its flying speed was incredibly fast, and even though Su Ming and his companions were enhanced by the exoskeleton armor, they could not outrun it. The distance between them rapidly closed.

As the II-type Chilami Blood Mosquito was about to catch up, An Ruoxue pulled out two explosive hand grenades from her belt, activated the timer, and threw them.

Just as the Chilami Blood Mosquito caught up, a fierce explosion erupted, engulfing it entirely.

"Well done!"

Su Ming, while still running, praised An Ruoxue.
