There was also the urgency of finishing off Peng Xuetao before reinforcements arrived from the mothership. The longer the fight dragged out, the more disadvantageous it was for Liu Gan and Yin He.
Su Nina’s eyes were still pitch-black. She didn’t respond. She was really concentrating all her focus on maintaining her ability. Since it used most of her focus, she couldn’t reply back to Liu Gan.
Liu Gan couldn’t just stand idly anymore. So just like how it was in his dreamland, he kicked down the red cabin door and borrowed a underwater flashlight from Wei Liang. Then, with one hand he carried Su Nina on his shoulder. On the other hand, he carried Peng Xuetao by the waist and rushed over to the Spatial Transfer Gate area.
With his enhanced strength, Liu Gan could easily carry the two bodies and still move with ease.
Behind the red cabin door, there were multiple glass cabinets. Except this time, the contents of the cabinets were missing. In fact, most of the cabinets were empty. Liu Gan wasn’t concerned about looking into it more. He only wanted to quickly head deeper into the chamber, before Peng Xuetao woke up. Liu Gan’s plan was to borrow the destructive power of cracks from the Spatial Transfer Gate to destroy the Spatial Protection armor. This was the only viable way of ensuring victory.
This was exactly how Yin He had described it. A war of attrition. Yin He’s energy reserves were definitely not as well supplied as the enemy.
Kicking open the black cabin door, there was the round chamber. Leading to the center of the room was an underpass filled with water. The water level was higher than in his dream. When Liu Gan entered the freezing cold water, his body became rigid. It was a lot colder than he had experienced in the dream. Right now, Liu Gan relied solely on his willpower. He carried two people across the underpass until he reached the other side of the round room.
With the underwater flashlight, Liu Gan saw that there were Spatial Cracks that were revolving around the round room. They were revolving faster than expected. Liu Gan placed Su Nina in a safe location before using Peng Xuetao’s body as a shield, while making his way to the Spatial Cracks.
It was a given that the Spatial Cracks were more effective in damaging the Spatial Armors then he would be. Even Liu Gan’s strikes were unable to put a dent in the armor. The dimensional cracks formed infinitely sharp disruptions that produced very fine blue rays as they contacted the Spatial Armor. The Spatial Cracks were revolving around the Spatial Transfer Gate as their center. Using Peng Xuetao as a shield, he confirmed that the Spatial Armor could obstruct the path of the Spatial Cracks, and they would ultimately melt down part of the armor.
Knowing that the Spatial Cracks could wreck havoc on the armor, Liu Gan used the flashlight to find the path to the center of the room. Carefully, he navigated to the Spatial Transfer Gate. Earlier in the night, when Liu Gan was struck by Su Nina’s [Nightmare Assault], she was nowhere close to his side. From that Liu Gan could estimate the approximate effective distance of the ability. So Liu Gan placed her by the side of the cabin door away from danger. To deal with Peng Xuetao, he also had to dodge the Spatial Cracks, so he didn’t want to divert his focus on protecting her as well.
The Spatial Cracks closer to the center of the room revolved more quickly, at least several times faster than they did in dreamland. It was still within the speed that Liu Gan could react to. Most of the Spatial Cracks were revolving in an anticlockwise rotation, and Liu Gan was using Peng Xuetao as a human barrier, so he wasn’t too worried about getting hurt.
