Chapter 660: Fight, Lyr!

Flashes of purple flickered incessantly on the horizon Boos fell Roars, explosions, collapse… they all clashed together in a cacophony of terror

Su He stood at the top of the clock tower, staring into the distance High though he stood, his heart felt like it had sunk into the ground below As temporary commander of the defenses he was meticulous in preparation, but he knew if the soldiers couldn’t hold the aliens back the students didn’t stand much of a chance

They’d come too quick, too fierce The world ed by a toxic purple cloud that came on the heels of the alien warriors

Su He heaved a sigh, squashi+ng his own anxieties Mele swas of scores of ene saved flashed behind his eyes

Lan Jue, everything you did I can do, too Or maybe I can’t, and this will be my last stand But if it is, I’ll make sure the aliens pay dearly

Every ht crept closer

“Everyone, prepare for battle” Su He cale

“Classes one, two and three prepare We have aliens co in from one o’clock Hit them with laser fire Mechas, ready your weapons”

The inevitable clash with the aliens frightened the students Behind stoic faces and metal breastplates their faces were pale

Aoooooohh–! A lu beast heaved into view It looks like a tortoise, with a body tenand a thick shell on its back In contrast to its likeness, though, it s thick as verti-cars Its whole body flickered purple as it bore down on them

“Fire!” Su He shouted

The students were nervous, but the bearers of the heavy weaponry were the best the school had to offer They obeyed orders, and kne to use the guns A wall of shi+ht erupted froe swath of land before the the shots with its shell However the assault proved to be too much and the creature was blasted away

Ten ures appeared on the horizon, each one different fro like corruptedupon them struck fear into the hearts of the hu of all was the creature soaring overhead A great and terrible bird was headed right for the school interior

“Ignore the sky, fire at will Don’t give theave the order and launched himself into the air

Hisaround its sleek frahtly as a star as the distance closed between hily bright – in the aftermath tumbled two severed halves of the beast Blood fell like rain onto the training ground below Su He’swide and returned to the clock tower

The students and civilians looked on, witnessing for the first tihtmarish foes Triumphant cries rose tothe walls ed to fend off the first wave of attackers

But the aliens were strong, resilient The turtle alien joined the others and pressed forward, acting as a shi+eld so they could advance Each luht the hoard closer

A line of hters adept at tearing through whatever was in front of thehters and laser riflemen were at their backs

Finally the beasts -like creature leapt overhead and spat its tongue out It blasted out with the force of a ry red laser fire
