Chapter 2362: Breaking Through the Siege

~12 min read 2,315 words

Inside the giant building, hundreds of Heavy Armor Troops were being scolded by the Crazy Doctor. It looked like the Crazy Doctor had controlled the scene, but in fact, he was a bit panicked in his heart. These Heavy Armor Aliens were looking at him with increasingly wrong eyes.

Taking advantage of the Crazy Doctor attracting the attention of hundreds of Heavy Armor Troops, Su Xiao and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang jumped down, landing at a position diagonally behind the Heavy Armor Aliens, while Amu was dragged by Baja and flew down from above.

Just after landing, Su Xiao flashed and jumped behind a stone pillar, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang followed closely behind.

【You have entered the Sith Ancient Palace, this is a super high-risk area.】

【Warning: This is a super high-risk area!】

Seeing the second warning, Su Xiao frowned. He had seen many warning-type prompts, and in the past, they were all blood-red, but this time it was pitch black, so deep that it made people feel a bit panicked.

Su Xiao pressed the wireless earphone on his ear, and a hissing sound came from inside. A few seconds later, the Dean's voice came from the wireless earphone.

"We have entered the Ancient Palace, and are expected to arrive at the core area in 12 minutes."

The Dean's voice was very low. He and his team also infiltrated the Sith Ancient Palace. Su Xiao was on the east side of the Ancient Palace, the Dean and the other four were on the west side of the Ancient Palace, and Widow Xi's side had four people, on the north side of the Ancient Palace.

Including Su Xiao and the Crazy Doctor, a total of 11 people infiltrated the Ancient Palace, advancing toward the core area from three directions.

Besides these three teams, there were dozens of contractors ambushing outside the Ancient Palace. The tasks of these lone wolves were very simple: open the road and cover the retreat.

As for the others, some continued to destroy on the outskirts of the city, attracting the attention of the Alien main force, and some went to guard against the Apocalypse Paradise side. The last three were responsible for watching the remnants of the Cult, the Shepherd. This guy was originally hidden in the dark and was dug out by Widow Xi.

The Shepherd had secretly set up a ritual altar. If it weren't for Widow Xi discovering it in time, the Shepherd would definitely have caused big trouble.

Everything was ready; to win, only one thing was missing: snatching the World Core from the Alien King.

The World Core being in the hands of the Alien King was already a nail in the coffin. Otherwise, the exploration team led by the Toad wouldn't have needed to go to Sith Star. That was the origin of the Aliens. Only by obtaining the Crawling Spirit would there be a chance to fight the Alien King; otherwise, one wouldn't even be able to see the Alien King's face.

Behind the stone pillar, Su Xiao switched the audio line, attempting to contact Widow Xi's side.

Hum~

A humming sound came from the earphone, shaking Su Xiao so much that he almost threw the wireless earphone away. Widow Xi's side was exposed. According to the plan, after being exposed, they should attract away the Heavy Armor Troops as much as possible and then escape.

Su Xiao waited for about half a minute. The Crazy Doctor, who was dozens of meters away, couldn't hold on anymore and turned around to escape. He could drag on for so long entirely by relying on his acting skills.

Armor collided, roaring sounds continued, and waves of earthy-yellow shockwaves spread.

Watching the hundreds of Heavy Armor Troops chasing the Crazy Doctor go away, Su Xiao walked out from behind the stone pillar and approached a tall stone corridor.

Arriving near the stone corridor, Su Xiao's hand pressed on a wall surface, and a circular mark appeared. This was a node that their own contractors had long ago arranged, which could be triggered by consuming mana.

Going further forward, there was no such good thing. The Sith Ancient Palace was very difficult to infiltrate; their own lunatics only set up nodes on the outskirts.

Creak~

Purple-black lines outlined, and a door opened from the wall. Just as the door opened, a contractor wearing a gas mask walked out from inside the door.

The masked man didn't say a word. He walked to the front of the stone corridor without hiding his aura.

"Sacrificial Illusion."

With a slap, it seemed that something shattered. The Heavy Armor Aliens in the stone corridor were all sluggish for a moment, and then rushed out from the stone corridor.

After a while, all the Heavy Armor Aliens in the stone corridor were lured away. Su Xiao walked into the stone corridor.

After passing through the stone corridor, Su Xiao arrived at a ceremonial hall full of sculptures. Strangely, there were no Heavy Armor Troops guarding here.

This was something Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had already scouted out; otherwise, Su Xiao wouldn't have gone deep into the Sith Ancient Palace from this road.

Arriving at the innermost side of the ceremonial hall, this was a dead end. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang sniffed on the ground and patted a stone slab with its dog paw.

Click, click, click~

Amu's big hand pressed on the stone slab, and cold air spread.

With a light knock, a large piece of stone slab shattered like glass, and a tunnel appeared below. What had Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Beni done in these two days? The answer was reconnaissance plus opening the road. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had dug this underground tunnel for nearly a day, and its house-demolishing skills were brought into play.

Entering the underground tunnel, after Su Xiao walked for a few minutes, the underground tunnel reached its end.

Su Xiao took out his watch. It was 3:38. According to Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's reconnaissance, at 3:40, the Heavy Armor Troops above would move, and there would be a vacuum period of about 9 seconds.

The second hand ticked. When the minute hand pointed to eight, Su Xiao pushed open the stone slab above. Just as he jumped out of the underground tunnel, he saw hundreds of Heavy Armor Troops walking toward the west side, just happened to have their backs to Su Xiao.

Su Xiao walked quickly. When he arrived at a corner, he leaned against the wall and continued to time. The Aliens were very rigorous in terms of guarding. The Crazy Doctor was exposed before because of this point. Unless the Alien commander came in person, no matter how he bluffed, the final result was exposure.

After waiting for 34 seconds, Su Xiao walked out from behind the corner. After walking a hundred meters, he pushed the door and walked into a warehouse.

Continuing to wait, 6 minutes later, Su Xiao pushed the door of the warehouse and walked out.

If one looked with a perspective view, one would find that at least thousands of Heavy Armor Aliens were distributed in the area around Su Xiao. They would move every once in a while. Su Xiao was shuttling through the gaps in their patrols. If there was a difference of more than 3 seconds, he might run into a team of Heavy Armor Aliens head-on.

Su Xiao was at the very front, with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baja following closely behind. At this time, he couldn't use perception. If he used perception the previous moment, he would expose his position the next moment. A mental fluctuation was distributed throughout the entire Ancient Palace, just waiting for outsiders to release their perception power.

Walking all the way, Su Xiao didn't encounter another Heavy Armor Alien. When he was only 200 meters away from the area where the Alien King was, the road ahead was blocked.

In the quiet atmosphere, more than a thousand Heavy Armor Aliens were blocking the passage ahead. This passage was about thirty meters wide, and its length was unknown.

One must pass through here to reach the Alien King's residence. With the 【Black Iron Vibration Bell (Fake)】, Su Xiao had the confidence to kill his way through, but he still had to deal with the Alien King. Killing his way through here would consume a lot of physical strength.

"Baja."

"Understood."

Baja took the 【Black Iron Vibration Bell (Fake)】 and flew out from the hiding spot.

"Hey, you turtles."

Baja shouted, and pairs of eyes in the passage looked over.

"Kill, it."

The first to rush out were more than a hundred Heavy Armor Troops. Obviously, other Heavy Armor Aliens knew that they couldn't easily leave the place they were guarding.

Heavy hammers, giant swords, etc., smashed into the ground, and earthy-yellow shockwaves spread, affecting Baja. These earthy-yellow shockwaves just arrived near Baja and were absorbed by the Black Iron Vibration Bell it was holding in its beak.

Exempting the control effect of 'Earthquake', Baja had many contingency strategies.

After a while, nearly a hundred Heavy Armor Aliens chased Baja away. Baja had space abilities and was least afraid of being chased by enemies.

After dozens of seconds, Baja suddenly appeared in front of the passage. It couldn't lure away all the Heavy Armor Aliens at once, so it would lure them away in several times.

Seeing Baja suddenly appear, the Heavy Armor Aliens in the passage didn't move. They were not mindless monsters, and the two sides were deadlocked like this.

The only one who could pass through here was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who was blended into the environment, but it was useless for it to go over alone, and it couldn't beat the Alien King.

"Amu, find a chance to escape later."

"Moo."

"Don't die here."

Baja threw the Black Iron Vibration Bell to Amu. At this moment, there was no other way. The guards were too tight, and they could only rush over.

Amu hung the Black Iron Vibration Bell on its body and strode toward the Heavy Armor Aliens.

"Roar!"

A Giant Axe Alien greeted Amu, holding its giant axe high.

Boom.

The earth shook, and cold ice exploded, surging into the passage.

Su Xiao rushed behind Amu in a few steps. Waves of earthy-yellow shockwaves swept over him. He jumped onto Amu's shoulder, like a cannonball out of the chamber, rushing into the passage.

Being in mid-air, the sound of the wind whistled past Su Xiao's ears. He tilted his body to dodge a giant sword that was slashing over.

When advancing to the middle of the passage, Su Xiao felt his body go numb. The number of layers accumulated by 'Earthquake' was too many.

Su Xiao landed in a half-squatting posture. Just after stepping on the ground, heavy cold weapons smashed toward him, passing through his body. He successfully penetrated the space.

'Blade Dao Blade · Time.'

A shockwave spread, pushing back the surrounding earthy-yellow shockwaves. Su Xiao broke away from the space penetration state.

'Blade Dao Blade · Blood Blade.'

Blood-colored feathers fell slowly, and Su Xiao disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he was already stepping on the head of a Giant Axe Alien with one foot.

Bang, bang, bang!

Air explosions spread. Su Xiao used the surrounding walls as a foothold, jumping at high speed, advancing dozens of meters away.

"Moo!"

Amu's roar came from behind, and cold ice spread along the wall, forming a foothold.

Su Xiao stepped on the protruding cold ice, and a thrust came from under his feet. It was the cold ice he stepped on that exploded.

With the help of this thrust, Su Xiao flew out from the layers of earthy-yellow shockwaves.

With a thud, Su Xiao fell to the ground, and an ice wall rose behind him, closing the passage and blocking the Heavy Armor Aliens rushing from behind him.

Amu's task later was to escape backward, escape about a hundred meters, and when arriving there, it only needed to smash the ground to escape from the secret passage that Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had dug for it in advance.

Behind the ice wall, Su Xiao just stood up from the ground when Baja fell near him with a thud. Although Baja had space abilities, it would also be affected by the 'Earthquake' ability of the Heavy Armor Aliens.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang ran in front, and Su Xiao and Baja followed closely. After another thirty meters forward, they arrived at the Alien King's residence.

"Want to approach the King, kill me first."

A figure stood in the passage, blocking the way. She had long hair and a nearly 1.2-meter long sword on her back. It was Crimson Tasha.

"Boss, I'll take this one."

Baja landed in mid-air, layers of space ripples spread, and those black-blue eagle eyes were exceptionally sharp.

Su Xiao didn't look at Tasha and stepped forward to continue moving.

Clang.

The long sword rang crisply, slashing toward Su Xiao's neck.

Clang!

A pair of eagle claws grabbed Tasha's long sword. In terms of speed, Baja had never been afraid of anyone; it was a space-type.

"I advise you to fight me instead. Provoking my creator, the consequences are very serious, little bug."

Baja grabbed Tasha's sword tightly, the blade and claws rubbing, making a clicking sound.

Baja's strength was far inferior to Tasha's, and it would even be crushed by Tasha's strength judgment, but Baja could resist the slashing force by relying on space travel. If one wanted to slash it back, one had to slash away the space fluctuations near it first. What Tasha was fighting against was not Baja itself, but the nearby space. This was the ability of the 'Sky Bloodline', which Baja had developed itself. ===== CHAPTER 2363 =====
