Chapter 308: The Hypocritical Guise

The three medical Xiunu were originally prepared to follow Yingzhou to hunt for Heretics, but were instead arranged by Yingzhou to operate alongside the Catachan toughs.

After seeing the Vitrian Dragoons leave with Yingzhou, the lead medical Xiunu could only slowly stand up and speak to the two sisters behind her.

"This is the God-Emperor's will; we must prove our worth to the God-Emperor!"

The two medical Xiunu stood up and said piously.

"For the God-Emperor!"

The Catachan Demon watched as the three medical Xiunu were assigned by the Emperor to his own squad, and said boisterously.

"Hahaha, we are preparing to split up to search for Aliens. The buildings in this area are intricate and complex, and the rooftops might also be escape routes for the Aliens, so you go to the rooftops to ambush the Aliens. We will have some brothers on the rooftops as well."

After hearing this, the lead medical Xiunu did not say much more; after all, Yingzhou had told her to cooperate with the Catachan Jungle Fighters to search for Aliens. As long as it was for the service of the God-Emperor and maintained Loyalty, she did not mind.

"Very well, then we shall do as you say."

After arriving at the designated residential rooftop, the three medical Xiunu began to observe the surrounding situation, waiting for an Alien to appear.

"What is that?"

One medical Xiunu suddenly spoke, her gaze narrowing as she looked at a black dot leaping across the rooftops in the distance.

"That is... an Alien! It is moving toward our position!"

Another medical Xiunu said upon seeing this, but no sooner had she finished speaking than a laser beam shot toward the black dot, though it did not hit.

"Damn it, it changed direction!"

Seeing the Alien begin to dodge toward the rooftops of residential buildings with cover, the medical Xiunu who had remained in Silence until now suddenly spoke.

"Let us move as well and intercept that Alien!"

"Would that not go against the God-Emperor's will? After all, we are supposed to ambush the Aliens here. If we leave, then wouldn't we..."

"The God-Emperor's will is to eradicate Aliens; we are not violating the God-Emperor's will, and the great God-Emperor will not blame us! As long as we eliminate that Alien!"

The three medical Xiunu did not hesitate further; they nimbly crossed the residential buildings and arrived at a building the Alien might pass by. The rooftop here was cluttered with debris, making it easy to lose the target.

"It's here!"

One medical Xiunu activated the Power Sword Yingzhou had given her and rushed out from among the debris. She had intended to finish off the Alien with a single strike, but the Alien seemed to sense something; its speed slowed, and its left arm extended forward as the flesh began to change.

This medical Xiunu immediately changed her target, aiming at the surging flesh on the Alien's left arm. She swung her sword, and the left arm fell to the ground, red heat flowing from the severed stump.

The Alien did not flee; instead, its right arm transformed again, and a Zerg Forelimb Blade slashed toward the medical Xiunu before it. However, the other two medical Xiunu appeared, forcing the Alien back.

"For the God-Emperor!"

The three medical Xiunu shouted in unison, their Power Swords attacking the Alien. But the Alien was very fast, and their previous successful strike had involved a stroke of luck.

Now in a direct confrontation, the opponent's speed allowed it to easily dodge the attacks of the three medical Xiunu. However, its left arm did not recover as it usually did; the constantly growing flesh was forced back whenever it reached the stump, and it could no longer grow flesh there.

This situation continued for over a minute, until a Catachan Combat Knife ambushed the Alien from behind. Sensing danger, the Alien tried to dodge, but was blocked by the three medical Xiunu with their Power Swords.

The Catachan Combat Knife successfully pierced into the Alien's body. The Catachan Demon gave a forceful tug, the Catachan Combat Knife shearing off a piece of pulsing flesh, while the Laser Gun in his other hand pressed against the Alien's torso and opened fire.

Seeing that the Alien's resistance was not as strong after being hit by the Laser Beam, the three medical Xiunu hacked the Alien into four pieces with their Power Swords.

"There is one more Alien, but we don't need to worry about it, because the Emperor is coming!"

The Catachan Demon sheathed his Catachan Combat Knife from the still-smoking Alien corpse and spoke.

Hearing the Catachan Demon's words, the three medical Xiunu trembled, their expressions becoming fanatical.

"Where is the God-Emperor?"

"I am going over there too; I will take you with me."

Upon seeing Experiment 001 being attacked, Pake immediately changed direction, intending to dispose of the soldier who had fired the shot along the way.

"I have a feeling this operation is not going smoothly. Is it just my imagination? It seems I cannot conserve Spiritual Power; I must leave here quickly. I hope Experiment 001 can help me stall for a while."

No sooner had he finished speaking than his figure, which had been clearly visible, seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, gradually becoming blurred.

In the blink of an eye, Pake vanished from the spot like a phantom, a black shadow merging perfectly with the shadows of the residential building, moving rapidly through the darkness.

As he approached the Catachan tough wearing the red bandana, Pake discovered that there was no debris around the Catachan tough's position, leaving him with little shadow to utilize his abilities.

"However, you are only one person. I have Devoured so many corpses; dealing with you will still be easy."

Just as Pake emerged from the shadows, the wall of the adjacent residential building was smashed open. A 3-meter-tall figure burst through the wall and leaped not far from Pake. Holding a Chainsword that had begun to hum, he slashed toward Pake.

"Yingzhou!!"

After Pake saw who it was, a wave of fear rose in his heart. A Bone Blade quickly formed in his hand, attempting to block the attack. The Chainsword collided with the Bone Blade, and the immense force sent Pake flying.

"This is the first time I've seen you not smiling. Don't you like to smile? Why aren't you smiling now?"

Yingzhou rushed toward Pake, teasing him as he did so.

"We are both people who have modified our own bodies; why must you pursue me so relentlessly? I believe you have seen the Human Alliance's system; if we do not make changes, being wiped out by the Alien Race is only a matter of time! Spare my life, and we can join forces to change the Ninth Defense Zone!"

Pake kept trying to persuade Yingzhou, but his body had already begun to blur, preparing to merge into the shadows behind him.

"Modification? Joining forces? Pake, I think you have misunderstood something. You are merely using the guise of changing the Human Alliance to establish a righteous image for your own actions."

"You do not understand the people at all, so how dare you speak of change?"

Spiritual Power surged around Yingzhou, and even the Catachan tough with the red bandana saw this and quickly left the area to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

A flash of red light passed. Pake seemed to see a crescent-shaped scythe sweep across his body, but it caused him no harm. Before he could even feel happy, Pake discovered that his abilities could not be used, and his body had become solid.

"You... what did you do!"
