Chapter 1212: Biting More than One Could Chew (2/2)
Isabella, on the other hand, was like an unstoppable force that kept on killing. The enemies were clearly trying their best to stop her but no beams, no cannons could even slow her down. The girl was exhibiting strength that superseded any Level 5 Metehuman’s strength. Assassination was not her forte but if it was, she might truly be the one entity that no one could stop.
At that moment, all grand masters had the same thought. How much of a mystery could Zhuge Shanzhen be? What is Jiang Fei’s background and how is he going to be stronger in the future?
Seconds later, all ten grand masters got together to make a formation. Cooperating with each other was now the key to defeating the enemy fast. They were doing it so well that all of the Unknowns’ forces were now directed toward them. At the same time, 0543 was using this opportunity to hack deeper into the enemy’s system.
“Something’s coming. There is a disturbance in spacetime!” Ariel flashed herself closer to Jiang Fei and informed him.
As soon as the message was delivered, pillars of white light came flashing down from the sky. These were undoubtedly the Unknowns’ reinforcements, the Mutants.
High energy beams were fired, this time concentrated and organized. The Unknowns did not have a large army but they managed to compensate this by arming the Mutants, providing them with a means to attack and defend. The situation had only gotten from bad to worse when 0543 did a quick count and revealed that there were at least 500 Mutants.
“Sheesh… I cannot catch a break with these guys,” Jiang Fei sighed. They were all intermediate ranking Mutants but it did not matter as they were not fighting with their abilities but with weapons provided by the Unknowns. With their new alien tech, attacking was made easier and with hundreds of concentrated fire, not even Isabella dared to charge in without worrying about them!
During this moment of crisis, a thicker, larger beam of light was fired toward Bai Shien. The white light encased Bai Shien and solidified into a light prison.
“What nonsense in this!? Let me out!” Bai Shien roared as he tried everything in his powers to escape. Unfortunately, be it his punches or energy expulsions, everything was absorbed by the walls of the prison. Not even qi or the Water Splitting Er Mei Needle could do anything against the prison.
“Fire the dispersion beam!” Jiang Fei roared. He was prepared for this. He knew the one effective method to stop a Level 5 Metahuman, as well as the method to release them! The girls from the New Saint’s Guards quickly started the machine they brought along and fired a beam of seven colors toward the light prison. As soon as it hit, the light prison cracked open a small opening, allowing Bai Shien to flash himself out of it.
As the battle continued, more and more grand masters were trapped in the light prison. Even though they were quickly released from it, their killing efficiency dropped by a notch.
“How ridiculous!” The bold man, Feng Tianqi roared disgruntledly at the thought of being captured. He, as well as the other grand masters, could not fathom the thought of being overpowered by these inferior beings. If it wasn’t for Jiang Fei’s magical light… thing, they feared they might even be captured as slaves.
“0543, what’s the ETA?!” Jiang Fei pressed. The energy he had in possession was extremely scarce and the machine releasing trapped grand masters was consuming a hell amount of energy to work. If he were to prolong this entire process, he would run out of energy and might send these grand masters off to a bad ending.
“60 seconds until complete shutdown,” 0543 replied.
“Ariel, I think they need your help out there,” said Jiang Fei, sending Ariel out into the battlefield. He had no other choice but to suck it up and fight until the end.
