How Was This Possible?

The possibility of the neutron cannon directly annihilating the parent structure has been dashed.

Captain Kade, as projected on screen, had completely lost his patience.

"Captain Boren, I'm personally leading the landing operation. We can't give this mothership a chance to recover!"

"You can recover on your ship first. If I fail to eliminate the enemy, then you can continue the attack."

"No problem!"

"Lister! Have your men prepare to land with Captain Kade..."

"No need!"

Before he could finish speaking, Captain Kade waved his hand in refusal.

"I'm familiar with the situation of your cruisers. The overall mission fatality rate is below 8%. Give us your mortality quota."

Having said that, he disregarded Captain Boren's explanation and issued another order to his fleet.

"All departments are here. The Landing Operations Department will accompany me on the amphibious assault! The rest of the departments will cooperate with us in our free-for-all attack!"

After saying that, the projection was cut off, and he hurriedly led the team to land.

It seems they're prepared to go all in and take a gamble, with no intention of reporting back to their superiors and abandoning the mission.

"Captain, shall we land?"

"Forget it! Let's wait a bit longer."

Since the other side ultimately held the upper hand and was now showing some restraint in their speech, Captain Boren decided to wait and see for a while.

With Captain Kade leading the landing, Lister finally witnessed the superiority of the enemy destroyers.

Compared to their ships, the Landing Operations Department of the destroyer is clearly on a completely different level, belonging to an absolutely core department.

The number of soldiers who landed was not large, about a thousand.

However, their ranks were all around level 10, which was two levels higher than the average sergeant in their unit.

Their general strength is between ED level, and a few can even reach C level, already possessing the potential to be promoted to second lieutenant.

They were all fully equipped with personal gear, and worked in groups of three, cooperating seamlessly like precise killing machines.

Facing the Evil Shadow Eye Monsters, whose average rank was 9, they displayed astonishing strength, almost indiscriminately slaughtering them.

At the same time, the destroyer was moving closer to the planet's surface.

Countless small beams of light and ammunition poured forth, providing perfect cover and rescue for each squad.

At the same time, various aura buffs and control skills are constantly being added, further enhancing the soldiers' strength!

It's fair to say that they are indeed professionals when it comes to large-scale ground clearing operations!

As for Captain Kade, Lister has now also scanned the information.

It is the same level as Captain Boren, both at level 148, the fifteenth tier, with an overall combat strength of A.

Although the other party is from the Arcane Civilization, he is actually Class Holder water manipulator among the supernatural abilities.

In this already semi-arid and barren area, dark clouds immediately gathered, and in the blink of an eye, a torrential downpour began.

With Captain Kade's power, a monstrous wave instantly formed, and a single giant wave annihilated a large number of Evil Shadow Eye Monsters.

Unfortunately, the situation was similar to that in the mother's nest.

The Evil Shadow Eye Monster seems to have a special survival mechanism, making it impossible to die from a single attack.

Only when the body is severely injured does the true evil shadow emerge.

Apart from the eyeball, which is a physical entity, there is no other substantial body.

At that moment, a small number of soldiers seemed to be bewitched by the elusive and ominous shadow, and stood there dumbfounded for a moment.

The well-coordinated three-person team's fighting strength was immediately reduced after an opening was created.

It was quickly devoured and killed by countless other Evil Shadow Eye Monsters.

Seeing this, Captain Kade lost his intention to rush directly to the nest.

The mother must be killed, and the mortality rate of the soldiers must also be guaranteed.

The massive water curtain immediately erected several high walls, protecting the soldiers on the ship within them.

Countless water droplets converged into ice needles, which, under its control, were precisely shot into the eyeballs of the shadow monsters that were constantly drifting within the water wall. Only then did the Evil Shadow Eye Monsters truly die.

The flowing water wall defense was stronger than expected; few Evil Shadow Eye Monsters outside could break through it.

However, their actions were also brought to a standstill.

Fortunately, there was fire support from two warships outside.

After a long while, a small area was finally cleared, relieving the pressure on Captain Kade and his team.

After the water wall transformed into a giant wave that swept and attacked the surrounding eye monsters once again, the area around the mother body finally enjoyed a moment of peace.

However, in the next moment, more and more evil shadows emerged from the body of the Death Eye Monster.

A small number of the evil shadows even solidified again right before everyone's eyes, becoming new Evil Shadow Eye Monsters once more.

Only then did the soldiers finally understand the true way to kill this Evil Shadow Eye Monster.

The only way to truly kill an opponent is to attack its eyeballs while it is in a shadow form.

However, this method was far too difficult, and the soldiers still had better ways to deal with the physical Evil Shadow Eye Monsters.

Once the Shadow Form stage is reached, the unpredictable movements make attacks more difficult, making attacks relatively easier for psychic soldiers.

Captain Kade couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. After all, it was a mission to exterminate a Zerg-like Zerg, which was far more difficult than simply clearing out alien beasts.

At this point, let alone killing the mother, even getting close to her is difficult.

Meanwhile, new activity arose within the mother's nest, with various forms of Evil Shadow Eye Monsters constantly emerging, as if they had just been born.

An extremely exaggerated reproductive capacity, as well as powerful survival and resurrection methods.

Even though Captain Kade is strong enough and has many area-of-effect attacks, his attack speed is still not as fast as the Shadow's regeneration speed, not to mention the constant reproduction of the Mother Nest.

This made him, who was originally very confident about his promotion, start to doubt himself. This was followed by intense resentment and disappointment, as he felt that his path to promotion was now truly over!

"Suck~!"

A jumble of chatter suddenly erupted from the crowd.

Captain Kade's attention was immediately drawn back to the area in front of them, where a pale blue light, unique to teleportation arrays, was visible.

He thought it was Captain Boren who was personally leading the landing to help him, and he was quite moved at the time.

I felt a vague sense of guilt about my attitude before the mission began.

But as the pale blue light faded, it was discovered that the leader was merely a captain, with only fifty or sixty soldiers behind him.

The emotions of gratitude and guilt that had just welled up in Captain Kade's heart vanished in an instant.

He felt that Captain Boren was not as rude and straightforward as he appeared; on the contrary, he was a petty person.

I still remember his attitude back then, and now I want to get revenge on him by throwing these burdens at him.

His brows furrowed immediately, and he strode over to Lister.

"What does Captain Boren mean by this!?"

"Didn't I already give the order? You don't need to come down here!!"

"At a time like this, why are you still coming to cause trouble? Are you in such a hurry to die?!"

Even though Lister's aura was exceptionally strong, his rank was only twelfth, which was obvious at a glance.

The dozen or so officers and dozens of soldiers behind them were not even worth considering.

They were not on the same level as the officers and petty officers on their destroyers; there was no comparison whatsoever.

I wanted to vent my frustration with a few more curses, but the Evil Shadow Eye Monsters that had been born in the lair were approaching at an extremely fast speed.

The resurrected Evil Shadow Eye Monsters, equally overwhelming, were closing in and had once again surrounded the group.

A new wave of battle is about to break out!

The officers and petty officers of the destroyer behind Captain Kade were now on high alert.

Many soldiers who had the means took this opportunity to inject themselves with a resistance drug to prevent the mind control of the evil shadow.

Only the soldiers behind Lister seemed to be in a daze, standing quietly in place, waiting for Lister's command.

"Are you all dumbfounded?! Why aren't you getting ready for battle?!"

"As expected, you cruiser sergeants are all..."

"Um...?"

Captain Kade, who had already resigned himself to his fate, couldn't help but curse again when he saw the state of Lister and his men. He wanted to vent his anger on them, but he stopped abruptly halfway through his rant.

The next moment, an immense killing intent erupted from Lister, quickly engulfing the entire area.

A chilling killing intent, an extreme sharpness, and a piercing pain that penetrates to the very soul.

Even without any deliberate targeting of the soldiers, Lister's current rank still instilled fear in them.

At this moment, most of them stared blankly at Lister, a fear welling up inside them.

Suddenly, an extreme killing intent erupted!

Within a radius of hundreds of kilometers, all Evil Shadow Eye Monsters of the ninth rank and below fell to the ground.

The shadowy eye monster that had been hovering in mid-air also fell, leaving only a lifeless eyeball on the ground.

Congratulations, you have gained 307 experience points.

"Congratulations..."

Countless experience points flooded the system panel.

In the eyes of the soldiers, it seemed as if the immeasurable horde of Evil Shadow Eye Monsters had been wiped out.

In the blink of an eye, the space in front of them suddenly opened up, and at least 70% of the eye monsters were completely dead.

Meanwhile, the number of Eye Monsters near them had dwindled to less than a thousand of the tenth-rank or higher Evil Shadow Eye Monsters, greatly reducing the pressure on them.

For a moment, everyone looked at Lister with awe.

Captain Kade, on the other hand, is far more knowledgeable than his subordinates.

Faced with the extreme killing intent just now, and the subtle fluctuations that touched their souls, they also saw a large number of shadowy eye monsters die.

He stared blankly at Lister, scrutinizing him intently from head to toe, while muttering in disbelief.

"An attack that strikes... the soul?"

"How is this possible!?"

"Such methods! How is this possible... Could it be...!"

A thought suddenly popped into his head, which made Captain Kade even more stunned.
