Chapter 446: Weak Point

"How is it?"

"Has Lin An recovered?"

"Why haven't you ordered a retreat yet!? The missiles are coming down, and they don't have eyes!"

Wang Meng stared at the screen, not turning his head as he asked Gao Yan.

In the screen, Lin An was, as always, "fleeing," while several Awakened Ones led a group of base members to run and carry away the corpses.

Seeing Gao Yan silent, he couldn't help but turn his head, puzzled.

What the hell?

With such an urgent matter, Lin An couldn't possibly have missed the message, could he?

Looking at his current situation, every second of delay means increased danger.

Gao Yan heard the voice and let out an embarrassed laugh.

She understood the meaning from Lin An's tone, and even Chu An sent a message over as well.

The meaning of the words is very simple.

Wangjiang Military Region, don't move.

Just watch, don't get in the way.

Although we don't know what backup Lin An and his group have, both of them mean this, which shows there's no danger.

"Uncle Wang.."

"Lin An's side means, they can resolve..."

"We... just watch, okay.."

After hearing that, Wang Meng felt a breath stuck in his chest.

Just as he was about to say something, he forcibly suppressed it.

In his subconscious thought, he felt Lin An was being overly arrogant.

At this point, what's the need to swell his face to pretend to be fat?

I, Wang Meng, am convinced by you, isn't that enough?

Everyone, hurry up and settle this matter; it'd be best if you moved the base to the Military Region! Any terms can be negotiated!

Just thinking about how his face hurt today, he swallowed his angry words.

What if he gets slapped in the face?

Can resolve...

Does this mean they haven't used their full strength yet?

Although it doesn't look like it no matter how you look at it, Lin An's displayed strength is already exaggerated enough.

If it were someone else, he would surely disdain it, thinking the other party is just showing off.

But the one saying this is Lin An...

Wang Meng glanced at the expressions of everyone in the meeting room and found that everyone was holding back, afraid to speak.

Even the staff officer who usually loved analysis seemed to be playing dumb and stopped giving opinions.

Lin An said it's fine?

Oh, then it's fine...

For some reason, although Lin An had only been on stage for less than half an hour, the impression he left on everyone was truly profound.

Even if they tried to mock and deny it, they really couldn't do it.

"Alright then..."

Wang Meng clenched his fists, sitting back in his seat with a sullen, repressed expression.

Just a moment ago, he still felt he actually had presence.

But now, he feels like a clown.

Fine! Let's see what other tricks you have, Lin An!

Just as the thought arose, Huang Yan suddenly spoke up:

"The people from Long'an Base are approaching the defense tower!"

"The charging light is on! They want to activate the defense tower!"

In the broadcast camera, the defense tower built on the city wall gradually lit up, a bewitching red light rapidly charging.

No time to waste, or what?

Gao Tian led the Awakened Ones to dump all the remaining mutant corpses on the battlefield into the spiritual energy tower in one go.

On the other side, Wen Ya also nervously ran into the spiritual energy tower to prepare to charge the energy core.

Converting spiritual energy for use by the Awakened Ones is quite troublesome.

After throwing the corpses into the spiritual energy tower, the tower then charges the 【core】.

Only after these two steps can the Awakened Ones draw mental power from the 【energy core】 item.

"How much longer is needed!?"

"Is the spiritual energy converted from corpses enough?"

Gao Tian pulled back his bow with a reverse grip, ready to fire.

His eyes locked firmly on the thousand-eyed zombie, ready to strike at any moment.

As soon as Wen Ya supplies spiritual power, he will immediately unleash his skill.

"Just a little more, but the defense tower can now launch an attack!"

"Should we use the defense tower directly, or wait a bit longer..."

Wen Ya desperately drew spiritual power from inside the spiritual energy tower, and for a moment she actually hesitated.

The corpse's converted spiritual energy is enough for the defense tower to act three times, but still insufficient to support Gao Tian's action.

After all, the target is a special mutant that can be called the peak of the second level.

Gao Tian has just entered the second level, facing such an enemy.

The mental power consumed by locking onto the skill is huge; even at his peak, he could barely manage.

Before Gao Tian could confirm, Colonel Chu's voice sounded.

"Act simultaneously."

"I will have the indestructible Asura at the core fortress cut apart to speed up spiritual energy supply."

"Lin An, hold on a bit longer, there's no problem."

His voice was calm, as if they had a plan all along.

Gao Tian staggered, then said nothing more.

Cutting the indestructible Asura's body to serve as fuel.

The Long'an Base has been doing this all along.

But the base's spiritual energy consumption is too fast; the replenishment speed can't keep up.

Moreover, cutting too many indestructible Asuras at once will cause that guy's resistance to keep increasing.

So they also dare not over-exploit the indestructible Asura.

Like a hen laying eggs, pressing too hard at once makes the indestructible Asura prone to problems.

However, when Chu An spoke, they instinctively followed the advice.

"Lin Dui, anything wrong?"

In the battlefield's center, Lin An noticed the rising light, and his heart stirred slightly.

"Side-step downward slash!"

Speed surged.

He rushed to the foot of the thousand-eyed zombie, then slashed with his sword,

Blood spattered, dark red hot blood like pus gushed out.

A half-person-tall slab of flesh was shaved off the monster's ankle, falling to the ground.

Such an injury would be enough to severely wound a normal mutant, but on the huge body of the thousand-eyed zombie it's merely a scrape.

Having landed the hit, Lin An simply pretended to flee.

The already enraged monster instantly turned, exposing a back covered in eyes.

It's unknown whether the spider creator cannot perfectly control the mutant, or something else.

The thousand-eyed zombie ignored the flashing red light, merely roaring and shifting its eyes to try to pin Lin An in place.

A giant palm slapped out like covering the sky and sun, casting a shadow over Lin An's head.

"Now!"

"Lock onto its biggest eye at the back!"

Atop the defense tower, Gao Tian nervously gripped his longbow and shouted.

Among the weak points Lin An pointed out, one is that red giant eye.

Unknown whether the spider creator is hiding inside.

"Whoosh!"

A slight tearing-through-air sound instantly sounded.

The awakened one operating the defense tower suddenly launched an attack.

Red, like a death beam, the lava shot drew a straight line, instantly vaporizing the air along its path.

Under the heavy rain, the rainwater was also ignited by this high temperature into white vapor.

"Weng...!!"

Roaring in pain.

The directly hit thousand-eyed zombie winced in pain, bending its waist, and the densely packed eyeballs on its back all burst with blood threads.

On the hit blood-red giant eye, a burnt stench like scorched plastic began to rot.

The other eyes originally locked onto Lin An suddenly failed.

The effect is this good?

On the tower top, beneath the city wall.

Both Lin An and Gao Tian were slightly stunned.

They had thought that if the lava shot could merely hinder the monster's movement, that would be good enough, at most causing a bit more damage.

But they didn't expect that the lava shot, which normally can't even kill a second-level being, actually has extremely strong restraining power against the monster.

Looks like a few more shots, and maybe he won't need to act at all.

With a chance to catch his breath, Lin An gazed thoughtfully at the pool of foul-smelling blood on the ground.

In the dark red blood was a clump of scorched white silk.

Afraid of fire to this extent?

Is that white silk spider silk?

Is the thousand-eyed zombie stitched together by the spider creator using spider silk?

Essentially, it would dissolve upon burning?

Having deduced the truth, Lin An gave the order without hesitation:

"Fully supply the defense tower, burn it to death for me!"

Since the fire element converted from spiritual energy has great restraining effect on the monster, he naturally doesn't need to expend his trump card, nor let Gao Tian act.

After all, when Gao Tian makes a move, truly no corpse is left behind.

The thousand-eye zombie composed of a large number of mutant corpses should have been my spoils.

Destroyed, what a pity.
