Chapter 1533: The Road to Godhood 5

Moving quickly through the ruins.

Clad in dark purple hunting gear, Gao Tian at this moment resembled a hunter weaving through a steel forest.

He exerted himself to conceal his aura, moving toward Lin An's direction as fast as possible.

His landing coordinates differed from Zhang Tie's.

To be safe, he didn't want to miss any coordinates possibly where Lin An was.

The strongest combatant, Zhang Tie, landed on the coordinate with the highest probability, while he and Jing Tian were in an area with about 90% confidence.

Although the coordinates differed, as the main combat force, their landing spots were all near Lin An.

"Lin Dui..."

He grabbed with his backhand the war bow behind him, which was about half a person's size.

Gao Tian suppressed his excitement, frequently glancing sideways at the two astonishing auras in the distance, unable to help feeling some worry.

He already knew Lin An could not teleport away, and decided to launch the war.

Without overthinking, he now only wanted to quickly gather beside Lin An, to exert his effect as much as possible!

Lin Dui's combat power is now at its lowest; although they brought the entire base's armed forces, he clearly knows how strong the enemy they must face is!

He can no longer afford to consider the threat of alien civilizations; just these two Fourth Stage beings before him already impose enormous pressure!

No matter how many Third Stage there are, they are meaningless before Fourth Stage!

If they charge over, they can easily kill Lin An even while taking damage! The only one who can truly match a Fourth Stage is Zhang Tie alone!

"Maybe.."

"Orbital weapons also work?"

"Meme? Mo Ling?"

As Gao Tian was anxious and felt immense pressure, a deep, muffled voice suddenly sounded from the team comms.

"Gao Tian, dare you kill a Fourth Stage!?"

"The two of us, let's take out these two idiots!"

Hearing the voice, he froze for a moment.

Gao Tian instinctively looked at the tactical system, seeing Zhang Tie's coordinate rapidly flying toward him.

"I'll defend, you attack!"

"I'll hold them off! You figure out how to instantly take one down!"

"Don't let these bastards rush to Lin Dui's side!"

Being a battle maniac at heart, as Zhang Tie flew in from afar, he let out a feral laugh, his aura seeming to provoke as he slammed into the fleeing Fourth Stage.

Faced with Lin An's order to intercept the two Fourth Stages, he had never been afraid!

Damn it, what's so scary about two of them!

If not wanting to kill quickly and preserve more strength, he would have planned to suicide-swap one, then get up and kill the other!

"Us!?"

Hearing Xiong Hanzi's words, Gao Tian took a deep breath, instinctively looking at the two Fourth Stages who had already noticed Zhang Tie's provocation.

For a moment, he couldn't help but stare.

His hesitation didn't last long.

The next second, seeing him tightly grip the long bow behind him, Gao Tian gritted his teeth and directly agreed.

Can't let the enemy approach Lin Dui?

That's right.

Lin Dui is now extremely vulnerable; they must indeed extinguish every threat at the periphery!

Then, let's give it a try!

Killing a Fourth Stage as a Third Stage—he also wanted to know if he could do it!

"Oblivion Eye.."

"Dimensional Magic Bow..."

"Just one stage apart, I can do it!"

"As expected, it's that bear!"

Sneaking about, carefully concealing his aura, Luo En approached the area where the most fireballs fell, while his complex gaze lingered on Zhang Tie's position.

In his eyes, Zhang Tie at this moment, though also a Fourth Stage like him, was bursting with all his aura, unreservedly charging toward the group of fugitives.

But in his view, Xiong Hanzi's insufferably arrogant demeanor actually carried a sense of tragic heroism.

This isn't provocation; it's essentially using himself as bait in a suicidal manner!

"Don't dare let a Fourth Stage get near Lin An's position?"

"So you're risking death to intercept the enemy?"

"That's... two Fourth Stages..."

His heart felt complex, uneasy.

Although he and Zhang Tie aren't close, that damned bear had scolded him last time.

But seeing Zhang Tie charge as if going to his death, he still couldn't help feeling somewhat distressed.

After all, they are all humans, the strongest standing at the peak of humanity.

Since becoming a Fourth Stage and believing he stood at humanity's peak, Luo En's mindset has actually undergone a huge shift.

For some reason, if before he kept thinking about the day he'd complete his revenge, kill the military that once hunted him, become king and hegemon, living like a local emperor...

But now, he actually feels a heavy pressure on himself.

And the name of that pressure is responsibility.

The responsibility of being one of humanity's leaders.

That's right.

He is one of the strongest, perhaps already on par with Lin An. Naturally, then, some things seem to have suddenly fallen onto his shoulders. The apocalypse is getting harder, and the enemies are increasing.

He had thought there were no fourth-stage among the refugees, but now it seems the enemies hidden on this planet are unimaginable!

From the joy of just leaving the instance, to personally witnessing Long An warriors descending from the sky and falling in a desperate struggle.

Besides the shock, he only felt that everything was filled with a tragic, heroic feeling.

Just like the movies he had seen before, when humanity faces a great crisis, everyone fights with all their might.

Once the strongest, Lin An has fallen to the point of needing protection.

Just like the previous generation's protagonist in a movie, about to fall.

And he is the new protagonist, watching this tragic scene.

He doesn't know how many of the Long An warriors who fell elsewhere will survive. He also doesn't know whether the Long An base in Asia has already been destroyed.

He dare not even think about what the outcome of this impending battle will be.

The world seems to have turned gray, everything feels so oppressive.

In a vague way, he seemed to hear people's wails and pleas.

"The old fire is about to go out.."

"And I am the new hope?"

"This is my.. story.. does my legend begin?"

"Maybe.. I should do something?"

"Colonel, should we still go over?!"

"That bear went to intercept the enemies. If we go over, what if Lin An asks us to stay?"

"Why aren't they fleeing yet?"

A team member's voice interrupted Luo En's contemplation.

Unlike the inexplicable sense of tragedy rising in Colonel Luo En's heart, the squad members all turned pale, not knowing what to do.

They had already seen that the battle zone channel was filled with news of monsters everywhere.

Damn it!

As soon as they came out, they discovered the world had changed, with fourth-stage enemies everywhere!

This is completely unlike what they had imagined! Moreover, what makes it even harder to understand is that Lin An's side should have many third-stage fighters. Logically, they should hurry and flee together!

Although there are hundreds of third-stage fighters, they can also realize that these suddenly appearing enemies definitely won't be fewer than the Long An forces!

Unlike the team members worrying about their own comfort.

In his self-imagined scenario, already somewhat immersed in an indescribable strange emotion, Luo En took a deep breath, his eyes actually showing a hint of determination.

"Go!"

"We are all humans! In the face of danger, someone must step forward!"

"If Lin An needs me, I can lend him a hand!"

"After all, I, Luo En, am also humanity's hope!"

As his words fell, the team members suddenly froze, some looking bewildered at the strangely speaking Luo En.

To them, Colonel Luo En's tone of voice at this moment sounded exactly like someone performing in a stage play.

"What the hell?"

"Are we going to save people?"

Immersed in his imagined tragic scene, after a second, Luo En finally noticed that the team members' gazes toward him were somewhat strange.

Suddenly realizing he had overdone it, Luo En embarrassedly coughed lightly twice and quickly added.

"If you can help, then help."

"First go over to see what's happening with Lin An; if we can bring him to escape, then we'll lend him a hand!"

"If not, we'll just run!"
