How do we locate it?

Old Deer, without questioning, casually remarked:

"Laser Guidance Mirror"

"Mu Fan, I'm afraid you won't last five minutes. We just spotted the Zerg Race's air force through a monitor 20 kilometers away! Get into the Star-borne Ship immediately, and I can reduce the activation time by one-third."

In the dark world, it only cares about Mu Fan's life or death. As for others, even the White Hair one is just one of many irrelevant creatures in the dark's eyes.

The situation has undoubtedly reached a critical juncture.

Mu Fan walked to the entrance alone, stood quietly, and said calmly, "Wait a little longer, just one minute."

"Mu Fan, I need a reason." Hei's tone became formal.

"I had a gut feeling that she was going to run into trouble."

"And then?" Black asked only one short question.

Mu Fan remained silent.

Mu Fan watched as the 30-strong assault team, having barely broken out of the mechs' perimeter by less than a hundred meters, was pierced by countless suddenly appearing Ground Spike, the scene of limbs and blood mixed together instantly unfolding on the flat ground.

Infiltrators!

The Exoskeleton Armor was completely unable to withstand the giant spikes that suddenly emerged from the ground, leaving the assault team unprepared in the darkness.

The gushing of blood seemed to spur the Zegs into a frenzied, reckless charge.

Lin Hao and the others walked to Mu Fan's side, looking worriedly into the distance.

Although they couldn't see Tracy, it meant she was in a safe area.

Mu Fan's gaze remained fixed on that slightly distorted space that was slowly moving.

It was Tracy's figure that caused the commando team's attempt to clear a path for her to fail, and instead cost the entire team their lives.

In the darkness, it seemed as if lurking creatures were everywhere beneath the ground, and no one dared to take another step forward.

Tracy's path forward was blocked; in the face of the Insect Swarm, locking onto a moving target within a kilometer was virtually impossible.

She had to keep getting closer; her limit was 700 meters, at which point she was confident she could lock onto the target in ten seconds!

As for what happens ten seconds later, that's not something she's considering.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Suddenly, a sea of fire exploded in front of the commando team where they had just been attacked.

Countless limbs flew into the air. Several deep pits were plowed into the ground.

The Heavy Hammer Tank is unleashing its power!

The six mechs immediately split up and advanced along that area.

Tracy immediately followed closely behind.

The six mechs naturally took a lot of damage from the Insect Swarm.

Under the Fire Support from the Siege Tank, the mechs quickly advanced to a position of 700 meters after losing three units.

Tracy relaxed, her grappling hook suddenly shot out, striking the shoulder of a Pioneer mech with a snap, before she landed on the mech's shoulder.

With knees bent and half-kneeling, several parts of the sniper rifle instantly unlocked high-precision sniping mode, and the barrel suddenly extended.

A tiny red dot hits Plasma Bug in the distance.

Beep, locking in progress...

One second, two seconds, three seconds— Tracy held her breath completely at that moment, her eyes fixed on the giant Plasma Bug.

When the red dot landed on the Plasma Bug, it seemed that other Zerg had noticed this, and a shrill insect cry rang out again.

The Insect Swarm immediately rioted.

The remaining three mechs, with the other two positioned in front to buy Tracy a final bit of time as the Insect Swarm rioted.

The tiger-insects, which had been charging forward relentlessly, stopped moving, and instantly a barrage of stone projectiles rained down from behind them.

The barrage of bullets formed a terrifying vertical screen, fiercely attacking the three mechs.

6 seconds, 7 seconds...

Tracy kept timing, and the Plasma Bug had begun to store energy again!

But she doesn't care. For Black Widow, now the sole guide, completing the mission is the ultimate goal.

8 seconds...

Bang! Bang bang bang!

Tracy, who was perched on the mecha's shoulder, was instantly severely injured and forced to break free of her stealth state.

"Beep, Novabomb lock failed!"

The faint electronic sound rang in the ears of several people inside the base at the same time.

The hands of Old Wolf, Old Deer, and the others trembled involuntarily.

Tracy... failed?

Lin Hao abruptly grabbed the walkie-talkie. "First Star-borne Ship, take off! Proceed to provide air support and battlefield rescue! All personnel at the base, evacuate the second Star-borne Ship!"

The Federation major's decisiveness was evident at this moment.

To preserve the seeds of hope for the Federation Military, all trainees must be evacuated first!

"All trainees retreat to the entrance of the second Star-borne Ship."

"All trainees..."

The major's voice suddenly rang out within the base.

The other members of the teams from Dingchuan forcefully pushed the trainees off the wall.

"Boarding will proceed in batches; we are preparing for evacuation!"

After giving the instructions, Lin Hao looked at that...

"Mu Fan, land on the Star-borne Ship."

"Is there only one way to locate someone?" Mu Fan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

Lin Hao frowned. "Why are you asking this?"

"Another physical location method is to fix Laser Designator to the surface of the target creature or building, but this method is almost impossible unless it is an infiltration operation."

Where is the laser sight?

"On Tracy's sniper rifle."

"Understood, give me a melee mech."

The boy's eyes were resolute at that moment.

"Are you crazy?!"

"Are you crazy?!"

The next sentence is a roar from Hei.

How can a host be so careless with their own life?

"I want to try one last time, please... believe me!" The crowd around him was already lining up to board the ship, but the boy's figure remained frozen in that moment.

"No..."

"Mu Fan, are you serious?"

"Seriously."

"You will die if you fail this time."

"I know."

"Then why did you do that?"

"How will I know I'll fail if I don't try?"

Mu Fan, in his Dark Breath state, suddenly smiled brightly.

That look in his eyes was the composure of a smiling death, the excitement of constantly striving for higher peaks, and... confidence in his own abilities!

The two members of the Tiger Hunting Squad looked at Mu Fan with excitement. Tracy's seemingly inevitable death had taken a turn for the better.

Lin Hao suddenly changed his tone at the end, "There's also a Reconnaissance Mecha, but it's only equipped with a regular mech dagger."

Only he knew the true relationship between Ruan Xiongfeng and this boy, and only he knew Mu Fan's future identity—the successor of the Thunderbolt Fighting God!

A finger was pressed on a button in the central control area, and a mech quietly rose out.

Standing over six meters tall, apart from the light armor on key parts, the entire machine is a full size smaller than the Pioneer V.

Lin Hao looked at Mu Fan with a solemn expression, "If you succeed this time, I will apply for the Centurion Medal for you! You must come back alive!"

Nodding slightly, Mu Fan's emotions were unaffected by any external factors while he was in a state of Dark Breath.

He then pressed down and transformed into a black shadow, rushing directly to the back entrance of the mech without using any device.

With a gentle press of his hand, Mu Fan looked at the dark cockpit entrance in front of him and whispered, "Black, help me."

"As you wish."

Mu Fan entered the cockpit, and the mech's eyes, emitting a green glow, lit up.

"The B-class reconnaissance mech, the Lacerator, boasts A-level mobility, a 6.5-generation engine, and D-level protection. Sixty Seconds is the maximum time I can forcefully accelerate the Star-borne Ship's thrusters using the military's underground Optical Brain, and it's also the maximum time I can give you."

"Clear."

"Mu Fan, why did you rush in this time?"

"Life and death hang in the balance; a fledgling eagle that doesn't fall off a cliff will never take flight. Perhaps now I'm beginning to understand the meaning of my life!"

For the first time, Mu Fan showed a smile beyond his years, and his hand suddenly pressed down on the control panel.

Some things never disappear...

Some things simply must be done!

Aren't I the most ferocious beast? Haha.

The boy's smile vanished instantly, replaced by a chilling fighting spirit.

Lacerator, strike!
