417 The Battle Outside the Base, Ending with Another Harves (2/2)

A pistol was fired from the enemies' side. However, Mark was not the target. The bullet flew towards Alana on top of the wall. The shot was too sudden and there was no time for Alana to take cover.

BANG! TING!

The bullet did not reach Alana, however. Mei's eyes dilated activating her [Bullet Time]. The bullet was still fast but not in a way that it could not be seen. Mei fired her sniper rifle deflecting the incoming bullet.

\”Thank you!\”

Alana said to Mei. She did not seem to be fazed by what she was about to experience just now. Alana then proceeded to pierce holes on the person that shot at her like a crazy person. It might not look like it but her mind was surely affected by the near-death experience just now.

Because of that instance, the girls atop the walls focused on shooting those that had guns on their hands.

Then, the girls faced another unexpected attack. A huge tree was hurled towards their direction. The tree was uprooted and was thrown by the bear. There was no doubt, he was really a bear. Furthermore, he was not done yet. He threw another uprooted tree towards the girls just to be sure and was in the middle of uprooting another one.

The girls were in trouble. There was no way for any of them to block these large trees hurled at them.

Then... A white shadow charged past them from behind. The while shadow kicked the air fast which caused the shadow's speed to accelerate.

BAM!

The shadow spun forwards and dropped her heels on the incoming tree causing it to fall down. With that kick, the shadow stopped midair revealing Abbygale in her transformed appearance.

Alana and Hallie gasped at the appearance of a cute cat-eared little girl in front of them. It was despite that they were still in the middle of a battle. The priorities of Otakus, despite the situation, were really odd most of the time.

Before they could take a proper look at Abbygale, she already kicked the air once more and charged towards the other incoming tree.

The intervention of the trees gave some of the enemies some time to shoot at Mei and the other atop the wall. However, not only that the girls were ready to take cover this time, a barrier was erected in front of them blocking all of the incoming bullets. Both Iola and Miracle also came to assist.

Not only the little girls, Edzel, Odelina, but even Edwards also came to provide support. As expected, a former military soldier had better gun skills than Karlene. After Edwards appeared, he managed to gun down several people already.

It was obvious, the people from Death Valley were on the verge of defeat. Many of the remaining ones decided to run away already.

Unfortunately for them, Mei prioritized herself on shooting those people. Even if they were already a distance away, as long as they were within her sight, they would fall with a bloody hole on their bodies.

They were efficiently dealing with the situation, even Abbygale was doing fine as she contended with the bear. Still, there seemed to be no way for the little cat girl to win alone against that giant bear. As such, another two came that made both Hallie and Alana gasp once more.

A grey colored wolf teen and a gray tabby colored cat boy joined into the fight with the bear. Their teamwork was awful especially since the two cats were rather wary of the wolf. However, the three of them fighting the bear caused the bear to fall unto a disadvantage.

Mark, on the other hand, already disposed of the weaklings around him. The only ones left around him was the spy captain and the armored grasshopper. He could only shake his head though. It seemed that everyone was itching for a fight and just timed their entrance properly. He started to wonder if they understood his intentions for staying outside alone.

CLANG!

Another loud metallic sound echoed as Mark wielded Ignis and clashed with the spy captain.

Mark could have ended it faster. However, since the others already participated in killing a lot of the enemies, he decided to play a bit with his prey.

After the clash, Mark was forced to jump back. It was because the grasshopper man jumped towards him. The teamwork of the two was rather flawless. It was not like Mark was afraid of getting injured. However, he did not want his clothes ruined because of this fight.

\”Annoying!\”

Mark spat as he blocked another slash from the spy captain.

Then...

CLANG!

Ignis \”slipped\” out of Mark's hand as he was \”overpowered\” by the slash of the spy captain.

Seeing Mark lose his sword, the spy captain had an excited look on his face. However, that look did not last.

\”AHHHH!!!\”

A painful yell echoed by their side which made the Spy Captain look by reflex. There, his eyes opened wide as he saw the grasshopper man covered by black flames while being impaled by Ignis on his chest.

The grasshopper man fell on the ground lifeless. Then, Ignis shook as it pierced through the grasshopper man's body before returning to Mark's hand.

\”You...\”

The spy captain was speechless... For sure, the sword slipping out of Mark's hand was on purpose to catch the two off guard. The sword did not slip and hit his comrade but sure enough, flew towards grasshopper man's chest like how it flew towards Mark's hand.

\”Oh, by the way, you're the only one left.\”

Mark said which made the spy captain look behind him.

Aside from a few slaves that could not run away, everyone else was already dead while a lot of slaves escaped on their own. Even the bear was defeated by two children and a young man already.

While he was moping for their defeat, he heard a whisper.

\”Say hello to Satan for me.\”

With those words, the spy captain's sight spun like a Ferris wheel as his head flew off after being separated from his body.

\”Alright, time for harvest.\”

That was the last thing the spy captain heard before everything went black. It seemed that they were nothing but livestock to the eyes of the enemy.
