946 Rush 2 (2/2)
The black Flying Ship resembled a black flying fish. It fled the cylindrical Leo City speedily and flew quickly in the direction towards the right. Seven dots below it followed closely behind.
Large dark clusters of Predators stood in the direction in front of them.
Pfoo pfoo pfoo…
The Flying Ship that was moving slowly at first then charged towards the Predator Waves. The screw rudders that were installed on its side, back and front began rotating quickly. These screw rudders had been polished before. Other than the one at the back, none of them had radian angles and would not form thrusts that would affect the speed and forward direction of the Flying Ship.
The rotating screws resembled three grey circular faint shadows that were constantly releasing humming noises that indicated high speeds.
The Flying Ship was like a little fish that had plunged into black water. In the blink of an eye, it had burrowed into the Predator Waves immediately.
The seven Big Wild Wolves below leaped into the Predator Waves as well and began to slaughter them maniacally.
The moment they met with the seven or eight Predators that pounced on them, the Predators were brutally cut into numerous pieces immediately by the gigantic screw rudders. Some of the remaining Predators were pushed a few steps backward when they were hit by the corpses that were flung out.
However, the engines of the screw rudders were slightly burdened by the additional weight.
The front of the sharp Flying Ship resembled an awl. A brief popping noise could be heard when it pierced through the middle of the Predator clusters firmly. In the blink of an eye, it had struck and injured five or six Predators.
There were one or two Predators that were sent flying. However, it was inevitable that the speed of the Flying Ship had slowed down immensely as if it had sunken into mud.
The remaining Predators pounced around in all directions, resembling the motions of wrapping a dumpling when they pressed against the ship at once. Despite their comrades getting chopped into pieces by the screw rudders, they were not the slightest bit afraid.
”Speed up!!” Garen yelled loudly inside the cockpit of the Flying Ship. With panicked looks on their faces, Malone and East Perrin held the control handles and tried their best to make the Flying Ship charge forward.
”The screw rudders are going to stop turning soon!” echoed Sinno's shouts from the pager.
”Keep holding on! Start using the guns to shoot them off the areas that they're pouncing on!” commanded Garen loudly.
The sound of gunshots followed quickly after. The seven Big Wild Wolves squeezed against the Flying Ship closely and formed a little circle. They bit and killed the Predators that were trying to leap towards the Flying Ship. This allowed the pressure against the Flying Ship's screw rudders to decrease greatly. They started turning quickly again soon.
Bullet cartridges from the heavy machine gun that was installed inside the Flying Ship swept through continuously and sent the approaching Predators flying. Currently, the Flying Ship had traveled more than a hundred meters through the Predator Waves. The Flying Ship was also barely able to preserve itself within its little safety circle without getting damaged. Although the wounds on the bodies of the Big Wild Wolves kept increasing, everything was still worthwhile as long as they were able to charge through the Predator Waves.
Roar!!
Suddenly, a furious roar echoed directly in front of them.
The vibration of the sound waves caused the ground to tremble violently.
”It's a Level Two Predator!!” The expression on Malone's face changed immediately while he was still piloting the Flying Ship.
”I'm coming!”
Garen used his Willpower to control the Big Wild Wolves below him and separated three from the pack quickly. He made them pounce in the direction of the roar immediately.
Bang!!
Two Big Wild Wolves collided with a grey shadow in mid-air. Both of the Big Wild Wolves whined and rushed backward while fresh blood flowed from their heads after getting hit. The remaining Big Wild Wolf opened its mouth and bared his fangs in an attempt to bite the back of the grey shadow's neck. However, it was sent flying after getting slapped by the other party. It seemed as though its waist was now broken fractured from the assault.
The grey shadow had to pay a price too as its momentum and inertia decreased at once. However, when it fell on the heads of two Predators on the ground, it used the soles of its feet to squeeze and explode the brains of the Predators, causing them to roar madly.
The shadow was actually a muscular man in a grey vest. He was blind in one eye but his mouth was filled with sharp teeth. Meanwhile, a strange greenish gray color had appeared throughout the skin of his body that seemed to be lacking elasticity.
Two vicious-looking deep bloody wounds could be seen on his chest and back clearly. Blood flowed out of the open gash continuously but as time passed, it could be seen with the naked eye that the wound was shrinking slowly.
”How strong!” Garen's pupils widened. The moment he saw this Level Two Predator, he could already feel that this could not be compared to the average Level Ones.
”Another four!” In one breath, he made all of the Big Wild Wolves pounce forward. These Big Wild Wolves that were strengthened three times in Level One were much stronger than regular cannon fodder. Their sharp claws and fangs were their most terrifying weapons.
However, this Level Two Predator possessed quick movements and was not slower than the Big Wild Wolves. Coupled with his violent strength, there would be an additional layer of invisible strength whenever he landed a punch on one of the Big Wild Wolves which made it difficult for them to get up even after a long time. Next, the surrounding Predators would rush forward and crowd around it before tearing it to pieces and biting it to death immediately. That was the power of the Energy Field that Level Two Predators specially possessed which was similar to the invisible Mind Force.
If they were not so many lower level Predators here, perhaps the Big Wild Wolves would not lose their fight against the Level Two Predator. However, under circumstances like these, as long as one of the Big Wild Wolf's movements were delayed, the surrounding Predators would seize the chance to pounce forward.
The four Big Wild Wolves and the previous three others were instantly submerged by the Predator Waves. Their final contribution was biting off an arm and leg of the Level Two Predator and making its speed decrease greatly. It was instantly left behind as it angrily watched the Flying Ship escape nearby.
Once the threat of the Level Two Predator had been diminished, the surrounding Predators gradually lessened as well. Some of them were not fast enough to follow the Flying Ship and were gradually left behind. The critical attacks of the screw rudders and machine gun immediately got rid of the Predators that were trying to pursue them. The occasional Predators that managed to hang on the Ship and sneak past the entrance of the cabin were immediately attacked and killed from all sides by Sinno and the others there.
Suddenly, the Flying Ship shook violently while the dark Predator Waves in front disappeared completely.
When the last few Predators were flung away by the screw rudders, everyone breathed a huge sigh of relief… They made it through! They had finally made it through!!
At this moment, a loud whistle echoed from the back of the Flying Ship.
It was a gigantic metal fragment that had been violently thrown by someone. Its sharp edges spun rapidly and formed a terrifyingly huge razor that was about to crash against the Flying Ship.
Roar!!!
In the faraway distance behind them, a Predator whose skin was completely bright red raised its head towards the sky and roared furiously before charging towards the Flying Ship speedily.
