Chapter 609: Re-entering the Sixth Defense Zone Meeting Room

Meeting Room, Inner City Council Building, Sixth Defense Zone.

When Yingzhou used brute force to open the meeting room doors, he discovered the Human Councilors inside sitting motionless, their heads bowed at their respective seats.

With Spiritual Power coating his eyes, Yingzhou saw faint green energy floating in the meeting room; the moment he stepped into the room, this green energy began to grow restless.

"Is this an Alien Race alarm?"

Yingzhou felt that time was running out, so he quickly walked into the meeting room.

After seeing Yingzhou walk into the meeting room, one Councilor's pupils seemed to change.

Yingzhou walked to the side of the Councilor whose pupils had changed and poured Spiritual Power into the Councilor's body.

As the Spiritual Power allowed this controlled Councilor to briefly regain clarity, the Councilor's body also gradually began to react.

First the eyes could move, followed by the neck, then the limbs.

"I am a Councilor from the Ninth Defense Zone. Time is tight now; I need to know why the Sixth Defense Zone fell."

This Sixth Defense Zone Councilor's lips parted slightly, and the words he spoke left Yingzhou somewhat confused.

"They... they... bewitched... our... Military District Chief... followed by several other Councilors and Military District officers. They were all bewitched by the Alien Race. Even the officers who weren't bewitched would be sent by the Military District Chief on various pretexts to carry out suicidal Tasks or be branded with the crime of colluding with the Alien Race."

This Councilor stuttered a bit when he first started speaking, making Yingzhou feel as if the other's tongue was fighting with his teeth.

As the frequency of his speech increased, the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor's speech became fluent, and he soon returned to a normal level.

Perhaps because he was speaking a bit too anxiously, the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor hurriedly caught his breath before continuing.

"I was not bewitched by them, but for some reason, they did not finish me off. Instead, they controlled my body and locked me in this meeting room with several other Councilors.

As time passed, my companions were bewitched by the Alien Race one by one; they did not hold out."

Yingzhou heard the intelligence provided by this Councilor, which was basically consistent with his own guesses.

Then why had Task 2 of the system not responded yet? Was there something else he did not know?

Logically speaking, the reason for the fall of the Sixth Defense Zone had already been found, yet this Task had been very simple so far, with no difficulties at all.

Just then, Yingzhou heard a burst of hurried footsteps outside the meeting room. A group of Hou warriors of various forms rushed into the meeting room. Upon seeing Yingzhou and the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor, the leading Hou Captain immediately issued an attack order.

"Run! My body is too weak, I can't leave at all! You are still young! Since you dared to come to the Ninth Defense Zone alone, your strength must be extraordinary! Don't worry about me, I will only drag you down! To be able to see you at the last moment of my life, I am content! Humanity is not finished yet! Humanity still has hope!"

Yingzhou looked at the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor with a strange expression. The other party had such a tragic look that he could not bear to disturb the atmosphere the other had created.

This thought flashed through his mind and vanished, and a smile appeared at the corner of Yingzhou's mouth.

"What are you smiling at?"

Seeing the smile at the corner of Yingzhou's mouth, the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor became even more anxious.

"Don't worry, I didn't come alone!"

The abdomen of a Hou warrior who had quickly rushed in front of the two opened up, extending tentacles covered in mucus.

Just as these tentacles were about to touch Yingzhou, a slash carrying a Psionic Arc instantly severed all the tentacles extended by this Hou warrior.

"Alien! You dare to attack the Emperor! Die!"

Dregoen roared as he used his Heavenly Punishment Demon-Breaking Sword to pierce the chest of this Hou warrior. The Hou warrior let out a painful wail, and even its true form suffered heavy damage.

"You Aliens, use death to repent for your sins!"

Gadlion raised the Heavy Incinerator Cannon in his hands and pulled the trigger at the rushing Hou warriors. The blue Holy Fire ignited these Hou warriors, quickly turning these disgusting creatures into Ashes.

The Sixth Defense Zone Councilor was shocked by the sudden change in the situation before his eyes. He looked in astonishment at the five tall Human warriors in silver-white Armor who had suddenly appeared.

Watching these five tall Human warriors quickly resolve the Hou warriors who had rushed into the meeting room with overwhelming force, the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor looked at Yingzhou again.

"Are... are they... your soldiers?"

"That is not the point. Valantis, you take people to guard the entrance. Any Alien that approaches this side, leave none alive. I need a quiet space here to obtain some intelligence."

Valantis, who was guarding Yingzhou's side, heard Yingzhou's order, nodded his angular helmet up and down, knelt on one knee, and said.

"Your will be done, Emperor!"

Having said that, he lifted the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd that was propped on the ground with his right hand and walked toward the meeting room door, where Hou warriors were continuously pouring in, and said to the other brothers on the communication channel.

"Brothers, the Emperor's will: eliminate all Aliens approaching this place! Leave none alive! Use the corpses of the Aliens to let the Emperor witness our Loyalty!"

After hearing Valantis's words, the movements of the other four Grey Knights also became much faster. They quickly cleared out the Hou warriors who had poured into the meeting room and walked out.

Before leaving, Valantis even closed the meeting room door.

The Sixth Defense Zone Councilor's head was buzzing now; everything happening before his eyes was something his brain simply could not comprehend.

What was going on? How did those five warriors in silver-white Armor appear? And their strength was so great! Those Alien Race members who poured into the meeting room were no match for them at all!

"Stop spacing out. What other intelligence do you have that you haven't told me?"

Yingzhou waved his hand in front of this Sixth Defense Zone Councilor, but discovered the other had not yet come to his senses, so he gently patted the other's face with his right hand.

"Hey! Stop spacing out!"

"Ah! Oh! Right! Sorry, this result is too unexpected; I had no idea it would turn out like this. By the way, what question did you just ask me?"

Seeing that the other finally had a reaction, Yingzhou did not mind and directly asked the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor.

"I just asked you, do you know any other intelligence regarding the fall of the Sixth Defense Zone?"

After frowning and thinking for a long time, the Sixth Defense Zone Councilor shook his head slightly and said.

"Uh... no... I already made it clear before. The Sixth Defense Zone did indeed fall because the Alien Race bewitched the high-level officials, but they controlled us completely, to the point that we didn't even have time to send a signal of the fall."
