When Abbot was taken care of, Ji Zhen approached Lu Ze and Lin Ling.
With a smile, Lu Ze asked, “What’s wrong, Vice Commander Ji Zhen?”
Ji Zhen returned a genuine smile toward the two. “Lu Ze and Lin Ling, thank you.”
“Especially 1st Lieutenant Lin Ling. To be honest, I didn’t believe Duolin could still be alive. If 1st Lieutenant Lin Ling didn’t offer to help, Duolin would probably die.”
The corners of Lin Ling’s mouth pulled up as well. “No problem, we came here to help. Now that Duolin is saved, we’ll go back to support the others.”
Although they weren’t even out for more than a minute, they quickly noticed the number of void beasts around with just a glance. Some defense force soldiers were present as well, but the void beasts were increasing at an alarming rate.
Ji Zhen quickly nodded. “Thank you.”
He knew the severity of the issue at hand.
Thereafter, Lu Ze’s entire body flashed with a silver light. He took Lin Ling with him outside the mothership.
Ji Zhen felt a little stunned after watching the two disappear and so did the others.
But soon, they went back to their work. After all, the war wasn’t over yet.
Lu Ze and Lin Ling appeared outside the ship. They observed the situation.
The mothership here was tens of kilometers long. It was like a floating iron fortress in space. A few hundred void beasts surrounded this fortress. Most of their chi had reached the aperture opening state. Meanwhile, an occasional few had attained the mortal evolution state.
The majority of the void beasts were injured. Among them, those who were at the aperture opening state received most of the damage while those at the mortal evolution state were relatively in a better condition.
Naturally, this was the logical outcome of passing in front of the battleships which were meant to deter the pack of beasts. Those who were weaker would have to pay the price while the stronger ones would end up with less serious injuries.
Some of these void beasts were fighting against the armored defense force while the others were attacking the shield of the mothership.
Indeed, an aperture opening state void beast could only release a weak attack against the shield. Nevertheless, if they collectively attack, the mothership would still have to drastically consume much more energy.
At present, the humans and the void beasts were stuck in a stalemate.
Lu Ze and Lin Ling glanced at each other. Subsequently, Lu Ze said, “Let’s split off and attack.”
Then, he added, “Don’t go too far away from
me.”
Lin Ling rolled her eyes. “I know. You already said it before.”
Following this, Lin Ling flew toward a bunch of aperture opening state beasts who were attacking the shield.
Her long spear flashed with a bright silver color as beams of spear ray penetrated the void beasts.
Lu Ze scratched his head and headed over to the location of a distant level three mortal evolution state void beast who was accompanied by its aperture opening state underlings. They seemed to have just passed through the blockade.
Lin Ling who had just killed those aperture opening state beasts glanced at Lu Ze’s back. She then grinned.
A few hundred kilometers away from the mothership, two beasts who were at level two of the mortal evolution state and one beast who was at level three of the mortal evolution state were attacking a middle-aged man wearing black armor.
The man held a long sword, and his sword style was extremely fierce. The battle was intense.
Rumble!
Another clash and a few hundred-meter long sword ray collided with a powerful spirit force ball.
The explosion swept over a range of hundreds of kilometers.
The man panted and then charged at the three void beasts once more.
A few hundred kilometers away, a mature beautiful woman wearing red combat armor was staring coldly at the five void beasts that surrounded her. Her long sword produced waves of fire.
There were two beasts at level two of the mortal evolution state and another two beasts at level three, as well as one at level four.
“Hmph!” The flames suddenly exploded on her sword, turning into five fire serpents attacking the five void beasts. Following this, she flew toward the level four mortal evolution state beast.
“Roar!!”
At this juncture, two people whose powers were at the mortal evolution state heard this roar, and their expressions immediately changed. They looked at the direction where the sound originated.
A level three mortal evolution state void beast crossed the blockade, along with a pack of aperture opening state void beasts. They were charging toward the mothership.
The middle-aged man frowned and shouted into his communicator. “Where is Ji Zhen? Shouldn’t he be healed by now?”
“Vice Commander Leon, more time is needed by Vice Commander Ji Zhen.”
Leon gasped and looked at the beautiful woman. “Jiaxuan, where is the commander?”
Jiaxuan frowned and answered, “He probably doesn’t want the battle to affect those people whose powers were below the mortal evolution state. To avoid such, he drew those two beasts who were at level eight of the mortal evolution state away.”
Leon’s brows furrowed as he looked at the incoming void beast. Subsequently, he said, “Then, I’ll stop it, give me some firepower cover…”
At this moment, a purple-red beam instantly penetrated that level three mortal evolution state void beast.
Subsequently, countless green beams annihilated all the void beasts behind this level three mortal evolution state beast.
Leon’s and Jiaxuan’s eyes widened. They ended up dumbfounded at the large wave of dead void beasts before their eyes.
They then recalled something and smiled at each other. Reinforcements were here!
At this time, a green light flashed, and Lu Ze appeared next to Jiaxuan. He glanced at the five void beasts before his body radiated with purple-red lightning. Five lightning spears appeared and instantly pierced through these five void beasts.
Jiaxuan was stunned. Even with her full power, she could only hold them there.
So strong!
She looked at the black-haired youth and soon recognized who he was.
She beamed. “Lieutenant Colonel Lu Ze? Yesterday, I heard that you annihilated the void beasts on planet Gracious. This seems to be true. Thank you.”
Lu Ze waved his hand. “You’re welcome.” Then, he looked at Leon and flew over to his location. With three lightning spears, those three void beasts died as well.
Leon’s mouth twitched as he looked at the bodies floating in space. Following this, he smiled at Lu Ze. “Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel Lu Ze.”
Lu Ze returned the smile in response. “You’re welcome, I’m part of the reinforcement. This is just what I should be doing. Are there any other mortal evolution state void beasts?”
Leon replied, “Yes, our commander just dragged away two beasts which were at level eight of the mortal evolution state from this region.”
Lu Ze’s eyes lit up at the information. “Where are they?”
A level eight mortal evolution state beast! The rewards should be bountiful. Would he be able to fight it?
At this moment, a white-haired old man with blue armor and a bulky middle-aged man flew over.
Leon and Jiaxuan immediately said, “Commander!”
Lu Ze glanced at the old man.
‘So he was the commander.’
Lu Ze thought he would be able to fight a level eight mortal evolution state boss. It seemed the battle had recently ended.
Even the heavens didn’t allow him to unleash his power…
Lu Ze looked at the bulky man. He was dark-skinned and seemed to be a genuine person. By the looks of it, his body was very strong
The middle-aged man also studied Lu Ze. He then grinned. “Lu Ze, I didn’t expect to see you here.”
Lu Ze asked, “Hello, you are?”.
The man answered, “I’m Hubert, a second-year martial arts teacher at Federal University.”
Upon hearing his words, Lu Ze greeted, “Hello, Mr. Hubert.”
Lu Ze didn’t expect this encounter.
