Chapter 415 - Stupidity (2/2)
All he got was being publicly shamed. Lei Ying was even holding a grudge over Xu Qing now.
But that was not his immediate concern at the moment. Lei Ying gathered his remaining troop and went back to his base. He needed to tend to his wound and set up a proper defense.
Two hours later, a spatial portal appeared on top of Longchuan Colony Three. Two figures flew out from it not long after.
Xu Qing, who was in the certification hall, opened his eyes sensing the arrival. He walked to the entrance to welcome the guests. The two hovering figures saw him and descended. They reached Xu Qing in the blink of an eye.
“Xu Qing!”
“Wang Zhou, Guang Wei!”
They shook hands and greeted each other.
Those inside the colony knew that the Human Alliance had dispatched two B-tier aptitude users from other Longchuan fortresses to aid Colony Three’s defense.
After all, this was where an all-out war would most likely erupt.

Five hours later.
The Grans had flown non-stop. They had reached the edge of Longchuan Mountain and would see the colony if they continued to move forward.
But it was already eight in the evening. The sun had set by now even though it was summertime.
The Grans could not help but recalled the mysterious creature that had hunted them in the dark the night before.
That “thing” was probably the same species as those that had attacked them today. However, he was far more superior as compared to those weaklings this morning.
“We will rest for now and continue our march tomorrow during the day.”
“Good idea!”
“Damn it. Let’s look for some food. I have not eaten for two days.”
“Yea! We need to battle with a full stomach. Who knows the slaves here might be too primitive to have proper food in their base?”
The Grans set into motion quickly. Thanks to their otherworldly battle capacity, most beasts living in the Longchuan Mountains were being hunted down.
Food for six thousand and five hundred Grans was not a small amount. Besides, they craved more after battling on an empty stomach for two days. It was highly inconvenient for them after they had lost their nutrient solution supply.
The Grans stationed on a hill after the meal and set up their camp.
On the other side of the hill, inside Colony Three that the Grans had yet to discover, the scout at the border had detected the Grans that were 20 km away.
To the elites, such distance was just about ten minutes away. So this distance had long been included within the scouting perimeter of the Longchuan surveillance drones.
Everyone inside the colony got nervous.
They had seen the Grans and their activities through the communicator.
A new map then came up on the communicator displaying concentrated purple spots near the hill. The amount of detected movement reflected six thousand beasts swarming the hill. That was an absurd number.
Even with a few B-tier aptitude users in the colony, they still feel that Colony Three could be easily trampled over by the Grans in a few hours.
At this moment, the aptitude users based inside the colony felt utterly hopeless.
