An Ominous Premonition

More alien warriors have appeared on the beach of Lian Island.

They emerged from the void and split into two teams along the coastline, quickly attacking. Initial estimates indicated that their numbers numbered over a thousand.

A thousand people...

That might not sound like a lot.

There is a saying that the number of troops involved in a marching war can exceed ten thousand and be boundless.

certainly,

This doesn't make sense in today's context.

Because nowadays, if the population of a city exceeds ten thousand, their IQ will definitely be halved.

Regardless, a thousand outcasts is by no means a small number, not to mention that their numbers are still increasing.

Even ordinary people standing together would be a dense, dark mass, let alone these beings who possess spiritual power and whose physical abilities far surpass those of ordinary people! If these thousand beings were truly allowed to storm into the urban area, the damage they would cause would likely be ten times, or even more than ten times, greater than their own! Feng Li gasped, staring at the monitor, and asked, "Can you handle it on your end?"

Li Yao: "Even if we can't hold on, we can still run away."

My Sauron is still quite cunning! Big Sis Feng Li nodded. "Everyone, prepare for battle! Activate long-range weapons, lock onto targets and unleash a saturation barrage!"

This is, after all, a base!

Ammunition storage is definitely plentiful! Upon receiving the Feng Li order, the base's combat personnel sprang into action, operating the controls at their stations! Soon...

The weapons concealed under rubble, in bushes, on reefs, and even in statue pedestals all bounced off their camouflage, revealing black gun barrels or cannon barrels! "Strike position one is ready! Attack pending!"

"Strike position number two is ready! Attack pending!"

"Seaside strike positions are ready! Attack pending!"

"Lighthouse strike position ready! Attack pending!"

Reports poured in one after another. Feng Li stared at the various weapon positions and optimal attack radii on the monitor. When the time was right, she shouted, "Saturation attack! Fire!"

Beat them hard!

As soon as he finished speaking,

Suddenly, gunfire erupted on the island! The ordinary people who were evacuating on the West Embankment turned around at the sound of the commotion and saw bright orange machine gun and artillery bullets flying up like raindrops, weaving a dazzling and magnificent Iron Torrent against the azure sky.

The scene was breathtakingly beautiful; the beautiful violence evoked a deep sense of submission.

Many ordinary people who were evacuating even had time to take out their phones to take pictures and post them on social media, saying to their relatives or friends, "This is my first time seeing a military exercise, and it's quite impressive."

The clerk maintaining order at the evacuation site, "..."

It's true that people have been living in peacetime for so long that they have no sense of crisis at all!

But they couldn't say it directly; they could only speed up the evacuation of the crowd.

On the other side, Zhou Haiyang and his group finally managed to block the path of the aliens before they could, and there was also an automated weapon position in front of them.

They had barely taken their positions when they saw a deafening roar erupting from the weapons positions!

Large-caliber machine gun bullets, no smaller than carrots, rained down like a hurricane, along with low-yield Bee Sting Rocket... In an instant, the alien warriors that had split off were engulfed by the exploding flames.

Zhou Haiyang stared intently at that direction.

He so wished that these modern weapons alone could completely annihilate the enemy.

pity,

As the flames subsided, one after another, alien warriors emerged from the smoke, shields gleaming with a dark blue light.

The saturation artillery barrage did indeed pose some obstacles for them.

But it's just an obstacle.

After a rough count, Zhou Haiyang discovered that only a dozen or so of them had fallen... such a fierce artillery barrage had only resulted in a one percent casualty rate.

I feel a little unwell.

However, the saturation artillery bombardment from the base did not stop. Even if so much ammunition was used up and only caused a one percent casualty rate, it was still worth it!

Ammunition can be bought and remade! But once a person is gone, they're truly gone.

Big Sis Feng Li has always been very clear-headed about this.

However, the alien warriors were also advancing at a fast pace, and after several rounds of artillery fire, they could no longer sustain the attack... because they had already reached the front.

Seeing the menacing alien soldiers approaching, Zhou Haiyang drew his long sword from his waist. As he focused his Spirit Energy on it, runes lit up one after another on the sword.

Even in daylight, the runes shimmered with a brilliant azure light, occasionally crackling with tiny arcs of electricity! Zhou Haiyang asked his adjutant, "How many of them are there?"

Adjutant: "Less than three thousand."

Zhou Haiyang: "What about us?"

Adjutant: "A little over forty."

A sinister smile involuntarily spread across Zhou Haiyang's usually stern face, "Are you scared?"

Adjutant: "I'm afraid."

Zhou Haiyang laughed even more unrestrainedly, "I'm afraid we'll deal with him too!"

"Kill!"

He gave a low shout and suddenly exerted force with his foot! The hard asphalt road surface was cracked open with a spiderweb-like crater by his stomping! Zhou Haiyang's signature Wallfacers coat fluttered in the wind, his figure like a sudden burst of dark light, beneath which a dazzling blue arc of electricity shone brightly! Sizzle!

With a swift and powerful strike, the sword was drawn and slashed upwards. A particularly tall alien warrior bravely stepped forward, but the brilliant and dazzling arc of electricity easily shattered the shield in his hand. Then, the arc of electricity, unstoppable, severed his forearm and cut close to his chest, slicing open the alien warrior's upper body!

Zhou Haiyang charged into the crowd, his body suddenly lowering! His long sword swept out in a circular arc! Whoosh...

The alien warriors were cut down like wheat! But as soon as one group fell, another group of alien warriors came rushing forward with spears, trying to assassinate Zhou Haiyang!

Just then, even more Wallfacers roared and charged forward, like a torrent rushing into the alien battle group, carving a gap to protect Zhou Haiyang! Zhou Haiyang's adjutant rushed over desperately, yelling, "Are you out of your mind?!"

Zhou Haiyang flicked his sword, and the azure inscription still shone brightly!

He said, "They can't kill me."

The adjutant's weapon was a lightweight battle axe, a perfect blend of modern scientific ergonomics and the weapon-making skills of the Wallfacers. He charged into the enemy ranks like a venomous snake, engaging in close combat, his battle axe chopping away at the alien warriors with lightning speed.

He brandished his weapon and said, "I just said they're the ones who're afraid, not us!"

Zhou Haiyang: "They're afraid we'll take care of him too!"

As he spoke, he stabbed his adjutant in the back of the cheek, killing a monster that was about to launch a sneak attack!

He sheathed his knife and shouted, "Four men per team, four teams back to back! Kill them all!"

The Wallfacers roared, "Kill them!"

Those selected to enter the Lighthouse Tower Base are all veterans with strength at the third tier and rich combat experience.

This wasn't the first time they'd been surrounded, so they all remained remarkably calm.

The Wallfacers warriors formed ranks, grinding the alien warriors like a meat grinder...

On the periphery,

Wallfacers warriors wielding enchanted guns flanked the enemy forces, positioning themselves on both sides of their own battle group. They used their enchanted guns to cut off the enemy's rear forces, preventing the Wallfacers warriors in the front lines from feeling too much pressure!

At the base of the Lighthouse Tower,

Li Yao felt that his condition had improved a lot, so he reached under his coat and pulled out two thermos cups, unscrewed them, and took a couple of sips.

One of these is Vitality Potion, and the other is Mental Potion.

After drinking it, the effects of the two completely different medicines hit Li Yao's head! He couldn't help but shake his head and snort.

Wow! That's exciting!

He put away the two thermos cups and went to Big Sis Feng Li's side. After glancing at the battle situation on the monitor, he said with some worry, "I'm afraid we can't hold on..."

Feng Li: "Just hold on for another ten minutes. The first batch of reinforcements will arrive on site in ten minutes."

Li Yao: "But Zhou Haiyang and his men will definitely suffer casualties within ten minutes."

Feng Li remained expressionless. "I know."

Li Yao remained silent...

yes,

In any war, people die.

He wanted to send Sauron to provide support, but Sauron's situation wasn't easy either.

Zhou Haiyang and his group faced forty against over a thousand, and the number of aliens was still increasing; Sauron, on the other hand, was one against hundreds! Even though he was a fifth-tier fighter, even though he fought with increasing ferocity, and even though he left behind a Dark Flame Shadow Guard, it would still take him some time to deal with his enemies.

Big Sis Feng Li shouted at Zhou Li, "Let's prepare for battle too! Bring me my knife!"

For ease of carrying, her knife is usually disassembled into three sections and stored in a specially made alloy case.

Zhou Li and his group were no exception; they all carried their weapons with them in various ways.

After they were ready, Feng Li ordered the four squads of guards Lighthouse Tower to stay downstairs to protect the clerks, while they went up to block the enemy! Otherwise, sending them into the huts for cover and then downstairs would cause a lot of unnecessary losses and damage.

She then said to Li Yao, "Stay here and be careful in everything you do."

Li Yao was displeased. "Who do you think you are?"

Feng Li: "..."

With a thought, Li Yao activated the Azvik Amulet that he had always kept close to his body, and in the blink of an eye, the Mage Armor covered Li Yao's entire body. "I am very strong."

Super powerful!

Especially after imprinting the third specialization! Feng Li was afraid that Li Yao would be focused by the enemy as soon as he went up, after all, the enemy was all coming for him! But Li Yao dispelled her thoughts with one sentence. "The people here can't stop me, and... I don't need to take your orders."

They're not from the same system!

Big Sis Feng Li walked into the elevator dejectedly, and Li Yao followed her in.

Standing in the elevator, Li Yao explained, "Sis, I'm not bragging, I really am super strong!"

Boss Li is a cheater, you know! He has so much pay-to-win gear on him!

In addition, he has been honing his spells and increasing his power during this period, so he wouldn't be afraid of ordinary Tier 6 cultivators, unless it was an elite Tier 6 cultivator like Ye Yu who had a famous teacher to guide him! But such people, whether they are aliens or enemies, are key targets for monitoring and generally do not enter the country easily.

There are people constantly monitoring the border! Even if you cross the border, Madam Qian will still be there to keep things under control!

Back on the ground,

Without a word, Feng Li charged towards the enemy, her expression calm as she gripped her Pudao. "Just hold out for ten minutes! Reinforcements will be here soon!"

In the short time they were talking, they encountered the Cold Descent Tribe had launched a surprise attack. They wore wristbands on their left wrists that could activate shields, and held spears in their right hands that were filled with spiritual energy.

I was a little curious as I left...

These strangely shaped creatures have already mastered weapon crafting to this level, so why don't they design long-range weapons? Are they fanatics of melee combat? Okay,

There must be some special reason.

never mind,

None of that matters.

Just kill them!

Big Sis Feng Li took the lead, her Pudao Gang Force, and with one strike, she made the mountains and forests howl!

Zhou Li and Qi Qi worked together seamlessly. Both of them wore bronze dragon masks and held large black umbrellas. When Big Sis Feng Li into the enemy ranks, Zhou Li and Qi Qi protected her on either side, their large black umbrellas opening and closing as they switched between offense and defense at will! Their fighting style was incredibly smooth and fluid!

Li Yao was frustrated.

Why do I have to eat dog food just to fight monsters? Why does Zhou Li have a delicate girl by his side while I can only have a wrinkled Old He by my side?

Li Yao looked at Old He, Old He returned a smile, "What's wrong, Boss Li?"

His face wrinkled even more when he smiled...

Li Yao shook his head and said earnestly, "Old He, you should take care of your skin when you have time."

Look at the state you've become! All you do is wear a Plaid Shirt, fiddling with all sorts of tech gadgets and software, wearing thick-rimmed glasses with high prescriptions and completely unkempt. Most importantly, Old He's face isn't just dry, his hairline is receding like a desert! It seems even a genius can't escape the programmer's baldness curse!

Old He, however, didn't care. He casually snapped his fingers, and blazing flames shot up from the ground, burning any survivors who had escaped the battle to charcoal.

Old He, who was guarding Li Yao, chuckled and said, "Boss Li, don't let my current appearance fool you. I, Old He, was once a well-known handsome young man in the surrounding area!"

But since then,

Who would he show all that he'd prepared? The person is gone, and so has his heart.

For the rest of his life, only this raging, inextinguishable flame will accompany him.

Old He raised his hand, and flames bloomed in the air like those of the Chiang Mai Lantern Festival, enchanting and beautiful.

Old He smiled and said, "Burn, burn... burn it even brighter."

The Wallfacers warriors each used their unique skills, while Li Yao remained safely protected in the center. Like Old He, he focused on dealing damage amidst the heavy defense. When their own forces were running low on supplies, he would hand out thermos cups to the Wallfacers warriors, urging them to drink a few sips to perk themselves up! And wouldn't you know it,

The effect is really good! But the more Li Yao fought, the more he felt something was wrong. He had already come out, so why hadn't those alien soldiers rushed at him like crazy? Could it be that his charm Boss Li had diminished?

That shouldn't be the case! Before leaving the Lighthouse Tower base, he glanced at himself in the mirror in front of the elevator—as handsome as ever! Could it be that these aliens have a different aesthetic sense than Earthlings? That makes sense...

These oddballs are grotesque and ugly.

These thoughts flashed by, but jokes aside, Li Yao's ominous premonition grew stronger!
