Chapter 238: A Charge

After sensing intense energy fluctuations at the Commendation Site, Xiao Kuishi immediately used binoculars to check what was happening there.

Upon seeing a Rift appear there, Xiao Kuishi recalled the Task that Chief Ji Bu had arranged for him.

"Quick, have the soldiers prepare for battle! Once fighting breaks out at the Rift, have the artillery positions aim and fire immediately, and keep the armored units ready to advance at any moment!"

Xiao Kuishi issued the order to the messenger beside him; after saluting Xiao Kuishi, the messenger turned and left to notify the soldiers in the rear to prepare for battle.

Not far away, the Attila Barbarian Cavalry also saw the anomaly there, and the leading Attila Commander said to the Attila warriors beside him.

"As expected of the Emperor! He already knew the tricks of those Aliens! Notify everyone, keep observing the battle situation, and be ready to deal with the Aliens rushing out at any time!"

Upon seeing the appearance of the Rift, the Modian Lieutenant immediately called out to his subordinates, "Prepare to advance! Chimera Armored Vehicles, cover the Leman Russ Tanks as they advance! For the Emperor! Exterminate the Aliens!"

The Chimera Armored Vehicles surrounded the Leman Russ Tanks and began to advance toward the location where the Rift had appeared.

When Heertui arrived at the Teleportation Device, he sensed the vibrations outside the Rift and felt waves of energy around the Teleportation Device he had given to Ji Bu; it must be the Hou warriors fighting with those soldiers of the Human Alliance.

"Ji Bu, you were on guard against me after all, but this is all in vain. With my race mobilized, how could it possibly..."

As Heertui spoke, he walked out of the Rift, and he was met with rhythmic explosions and beams of laser light, which brought Heertui's words to an abrupt halt.

A glimmer of light flashed in his dark green pupils, and a Scroll suddenly appeared in his right hand. As the Scroll rose, an Energy Force Field appeared around the Rift; although it could not block all damage, it allowed the caught-off-guard Hou warriors to recover their senses.

"Hou warriors! Those soldiers without Spiritual Power only know how to attack us with those energy-firing weapons in their hands! Charge! Tear them apart!"

As Heertui spoke, he took out another Scroll and had it circle around to protect himself, lest the other side have other means to attack him.

"Yes!"

"Hahaha, obediently become my Puppets!"

"Let me see how strong your wills are!"

After discovering that Heertui had opened the Energy Force Field, this group of Hou warriors recalled how they had just been beaten into a sorry state by these Humans, and while controlling the Spiritual Power within their own bodies to create protective shields to block the incoming Laser Beams and Rune Bullet explosions.

With the Energy Force Field opened by Heertui, plus the shields they had opened with their own Spiritual Power, these Hou warriors began to launch attacks against the defending Krieg soldiers.

Looking at the Rift, which was narrower than he had expected, Heertui showed a trace of impatience on his aged face.

"Tsk, for this Ji Bu to make such preparations, it really is hard on him. However, since you have activated the Teleportation Device, then it doesn't matter."

Heertui took several stones of different colors from his robe again, and after infusing them with Spiritual Power, these stones flew rapidly toward more distant directions.

Aside from the Rift here, several more Rifts appeared in the distance, and many Hou warriors poured out from the Rifts.

Furthermore, the Rift behind him also widened significantly, and Hou warriors poured out in multiples, constantly firing Energy Bombs toward the Human trenches.

Watching the Alien Race rushing out like a tide, Ji Bu sighed and said, "It's fortunate that Yingzhou reduced the range of the Teleportation Device earlier; otherwise, it would truly be difficult to deal with so many Aliens pouring out at once."

Ji Bu saw the Krieg Commissar, who was standing not far from him wearing a high-peaked cap, firing at the Aliens rushing toward this side with a Laser Pistol in his right hand.

Just then, Ji Bu saw that elderly Alien near the Rift with several stones in his hand, similar to the ones he had just used, and those stones flew off in different directions.

"This! It's him, it's that Evil Spirit!"

Ji Bu had considered that the opponent might have many tricks, but he had not expected the opponent to create three more teleportation points in such a short time, and those Rifts had already begun to pour out Aliens.

"I don't know if the 312 Corps can handle these Aliens, I must take him out!"

Ji Bu looked at Heertui with a gloomy gaze, and that gaze was also noticed by Heertui, who revealed a smile on his aged face.

"My friend, your welcome ceremony is quite grand, but I still have to thank you for trusting me; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to bring my army to descend here so easily."

After hearing this familiar voice appear in his mind, Ji Bu was not angry, and he said in a low tone.

"I have never trusted you. Activating this Teleportation Device according to your request this time was merely to get rid of you completely!"

Upon hearing Ji Bu's words, Heertui gave a disdainful laugh.

"Get rid of me? Based on you? Or these soldiers of yours who don't even have Spiritual Power? However, you are indeed not as angry as I imagined, which makes me a bit displeased. You must survive this battle; otherwise, I will be very disappointed."

As the Aliens wearing human skin drew closer, the Krieg Commissar and the Watch Sergeant reached a unanimous decision.

Eliminate the leading Alien, and the Energy Force Field it opened should then disappear.

"Pass the word down, tell the soldiers, prepare for a charge! Since the Emperor has entrusted this Task to us, it must be completed! Destroy that force field so our artillery can exert its maximum power. The Emperor will continue to send troops here; what we must do is let these Aliens feel the Emperor's wrath and make them regret being enemies with the Emperor!"

The Watch Sergeant said to the Krieg Commissar beside him.

The Krieg Commissar nodded and spoke.

"Agreed."

After hearing the conversation between the two, Ji Bu asked the Krieg Commissar, "The enemy's troop strength is far greater than ours; will charging up now lead to even greater casualties?"

Before the Krieg Commissar could answer, the Watch Sergeant at his side said to Ji Bu in a cold tone.

"If it weren't for the fact that the Emperor let you fight alongside us, I would have executed you on the spot! We are the Emperor's currency; for us, death is merely the best destination. As long as we can help the Emperor, it doesn't matter how many people die, because that is what we are fighting for!"

Having said that, the Watch Sergeant stopped paying attention to Ji Bu and instead had the Krieg Commissar convey his order, preparing to launch a charge against these Aliens approaching the trenches.

The Krieg Commissar arrived in the trench and shouted loudly.

"Soldiers, anti-enemy regulations! Fix Bayonets, prepare for a bloody battle!"

All the Krieg soldiers inserted their 45-centimeter-long Bayonets onto their Lucius Pattern 98 Lasguns.

The Krieg Commissar took out the Charge Whistle that Yingzhou had given him, removed his gas mask, and blew the whistle with an excited expression.
