Chapter 244: Don't Move Around While You're Here
Seeing that those Aliens had been mostly dealt with, the remaining Attila Barbarian Cavalry found their Attila officer who had been knocked flying. Seeing that their superior's wounds had already been healed by a Human Alliance soldier using a Treatment Ability, an Attila warrior led the Attila officer's warhorse over to him.
"Sir, those Aliens have been mostly cleared out; the rest can be left to them."
The Attila officer took the reins of his warhorse, swung onto its back, shook his still-heavy head, and gave orders to the Attila warriors beside him.
"Hoo... Let's move out! Continue to mop up the Aliens!"
At this moment, Xiao Kuishi, whose right hand had already been treated by the soldier with the Treatment Ability, arrived not far from this Attila officer and said to him.
"Friend, if not for your charge just now, we might have had to pay a much greater price to eliminate these Alien Races."
Seeing it was Xiao Kuishi, the Attila officer spoke up, "It's nothing; we only did what we were supposed to do. For the Emperor, our sacrifices count for nothing."
Having said this, he led the remaining Attila Barbarian Cavalry away from there, galloping toward the central Rift.
"Em...... Emperor?"
After reacting for a long moment, Xiao Kuishi finally came to his senses, "He wouldn't be talking about Yingzhou, would he?"
After Yingzhou left the Commendation Site, it wasn't long before he saw Ji Bu's Guard walk out and come to his side, saying nothing.
"What are you doing coming to me?"
Yingzhou looked at this Guard in confusion and asked.
"Although I don't know what you and the Chief talked about, I will definitely complete the Task the Chief entrusted to me." Speaking to this point, the Guard's tone dropped, "So, if the Chief meets with any accident, please, you must save him, he......"
Hearing this, Yingzhou immediately interrupted the Guard, speaking to him in a stern tone.
"What right do you have to ask me to save someone who has already made up his mind? Chief Ji Bu has already staked his own life; you should respect his choice and trust his judgment!"
Naturally, Yingzhou would not go to save Ji Bu, even though Ji Bu had some involvement with the Alien Race, considering he had always used information on the Alien Race to defend the Ninth Defense Zone.
Yingzhou decided to let Ji Bu fight as a Human. In this battle, he could not possibly survive; if he did survive, then the one living would certainly no longer be the Human Ji Bu, but a Ji Bu turned into an Alien Puppet.
The Guard had not expected Yingzhou to say this, but thinking of the relieved look on Ji Bu's face before he left, and recalling the words Chief Ji Bu had said, he finally closed his open mouth and said no more.
Seeing this situation, Yingzhou looked toward the Rift in the distance, where a large number of Aliens had already emerged from the Rift and were exchanging fire with the Death Korps of Krieg.
Behind Yingzhou was an artillery formation composed of Krieg Artillery, which, under Yingzhou's command, began to provide artillery support to that area.
Originally, Yingzhou thought that if things continued this way, exhausting the opponent would not be much of a problem, but the Aliens, despite being caught off guard by the preemptive strike, still made a judgment.
Centered on the main Rift, three rays of light scattered into the sky, landing in three different areas and creating three Rifts.
Seeing the Rifts appear not far behind him, Yingzhou began to worry if anyone was going to handle the other two Rifts. The Attila Barbarian Cavalry and Modian Iron Guard he had sent out should rush to handle them upon seeing the Rifts, and with the 312 Corps that Ji Bu brought, they should be able to resolve it.
"You stay here and don't move around; I'll be right back." Yingzhou patted the shoulder of Ji Bu's Guard with his broad palm and said in a calm tone.
"What do you want to do? You have already summoned so many soldiers, and there are quite a few Aliens appearing from this Rift; don't act recklessly!"
Seeing Yingzhou's back as he already departed, Ji Bu's Guard shouted loudly.
But Yingzhou only waved his hand and responded.
"It's fine, just protect yourself; I'm going to see if I can destroy that Rift."
Ji Bu's Guard wanted to say something more, but the artillery fire from the Krieg Artillery behind him was firing at that moment, directly drowning out the Guard's voice.
Yingzhou directly summoned Catachan Jungle Fighters. Led by some Catachan demons, these Catachan tough guys fired their Laser Guns at the Aliens appearing before them. While firing, they drew their Catachan Combat Knives and gradually began to close in on the Aliens.
Yingzhou also drew his Chainsword. With the rotation of the chain and his current formidable physical fitness, facing those Aliens who were slightly shorter than him, he killed them with a single strike. No matter what they looked like, he took them all out with one blow.
However, during this time, Yingzhou discovered that these Aliens were actually using Spiritual Power to wrap themselves, which could block some laser damage, but to him, there was no difference—it was merely a matter of one extra strike.
The Hou captain who walked out of the Rift saw the Human warrior who was a head taller than him and said in surprise.
"How could a Human grow this tall? He can sever a Spirit Power Shield with physical strength alone? No, the weapon in his hand is also strange!"
The Hou warriors who appeared afterward, under the captain's command, fired green Energy Bombs toward Yingzhou's side. Dense Energy Bombs flew toward Yingzhou, but Yingzhou also used his own Spiritual Power to open a force field, neutralizing those Energy Bombs and rendering the Alien Race's attack method ineffective.
Seeing the Energy Bombs being defended against, the Catachan tough guys began to increase their attack frequency. Although they were not as tall as the Aliens before them, in Catachan, there were no shortage of species larger than them, and they had survived all the same.
They did not compete with these Aliens in strength; they directly dodged the opponent's attacks and stabbed their Catachan Combat Knives into the Aliens' weak points.
Because this Rift was not wide, not many Aliens appeared. Under the relentless, chopping-vegetables-like assault of Yingzhou and the Catachan tough guys, the speed at which these Aliens emerged from the Rift could not keep up with the speed at which these Catachan tough guys were killing them.
Moreover, the Catachan Mortar heavy weapons squad provided fire support for their comrades in front from the rear, which made the already disadvantaged Hou's situation even worse, and the battle turned into a one-sided rout.
"Damn it! These Humans clearly have no Spiritual Power Fluctuation, except for that big guy. But their physical fitness is terrifyingly strong, and they are rich in combat experience."
A Hou warrior saw his comrades being dealt with in a few quick moves by those muscular men wearing red headbands, bare-chested or wearing vests, and roared in frustration.
