Chapter 490: Macro Cannon

After speaking, a Power Halberd appeared simultaneously in the hands of him and the other 11 people.

Watching the insects coming head-on.

The 12 people raised their halberds in unison, then thrust them out lightly.

This seemingly weightless attack actually slaughtered hundreds of insects in an instant.

Such an effortless appearance made Mijia's eyes widen.

Tianjian.

What kind of unit designation is this, anyway?

They appeared suddenly, possessing such formidable strength.

By visual estimation, everyone should have the strength of a Third Generation God.

Furthermore, their weapons are not Power Swords, but Power Halberds.

Just in these few minutes that Mijia was distracted.

The 12 people of Tianjian had actually already controlled the trend of the insects' spread, yet they still looked so relaxed, not having expended much effort at all.

Lightly raising the halberd, then thrusting it out.

It was also at this moment that the Tianjian Super Soldier who had spoken earlier actually retreated and arrived in front of Mijia.

He looked at Mijia, then raised his hand and patted Mijia on the shoulder.

"You all did well."

"Go get some good rest now, eat something to replenish your energy, and just leave the rest to us with peace of mind."

"The Macro Cannon can be fired in about a few hours."

Mijia nodded blankly, flapping his wings, subconsciously about to leave.

But having flown only a few steps, Mijia realized.

"Um, I haven't asked you yet, what is your name?"

Facing Mijia's polite demeanor, that Tianjian Super Soldier only said: "I am the captain of Tianjian Squad, I am 001."

"This is my name now; if you are asking for my former name, my surname is Shen."

After speaking, Shen turned and rejoined the battle.

Mijia did not say anything more, and led the remaining 100 Super Soldiers back to Huoxing Tiangong Jidi.

As soon as they landed, Tiangong personnel took them to the lounge for resupply, while simultaneously repairing their battle armor.

Although all the Power Armor had a Constant Silver Coating.

The intensity and duration of this battle were simply too high and too long.

The Constant Silver Coating had even begun to peel off.

The Power Swords in the hands of many were also damaged as a result.

As soon as they arrived at the lounge, many collapsed directly onto chairs, gasping for air in large gulps.

Only Mijia, his condition was much better than the others.

Although very tired, he was not tired to the point of being unable to get up.

Mijia stood in front of the window, staring unblinkingly at the Tianjian Squad fighting the insects.

At this moment, the Tianjian Squad had not only successfully halted the trend of the insects' spread, but was also gradually shrinking the encirclement.

Yet even having done this much, the entire squad remained so relaxed, as if they hadn't used their full strength from beginning to end.

Their attacks throughout were merely lightly raising the Power Halberd, then lightly thrusting it out.

Just such an ordinary attack was able to cause terrifying lethality.

At the very beginning, the 12 people's attacks could only wound hundreds of insects.

By now.

A casual strike from the 12 people meant hundreds of insects; the efficiency of killing insects was extremely terrifying.

No matter what kind of insect it was, it only took one strike; there was simply no need for a second.

Even those insects covered in thick black armor still only took one strike.

Seeing this, Mijia did not continue watching, but found a place to sit down and began to rest.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.

Mijia glanced at the Optical Brain time, confirming there was one last hour until the Macro Cannon fired.

He stood up and looked toward space again.

He saw that the 12 people of the Tianjian Squad had already killed their way to the vicinity of the Flesh Nest, less than a meter away from that Flesh Nest.

And the insects had been killed down to only a dozen or so remaining.

Following another round of attacks.

These last dozen or so insects were decapitated.

At this moment, only this Flesh Nest remained in front of the 12 people.

Shen stepped forward and thrust his Power Halberd fiercely into the Flesh Nest.

With just this one strike, the Flesh Nest was torn open directly.

Scarlet liquid immediately spilled out everywhere.

And within this scarlet liquid were dense clusters of Insect Eggs.

The moment these Insect Eggs touched space, they were frozen into ice cubes, completely losing their vitality.

Yet Shen stopped his attack at this time and withdrew.

This made Mijia somewhat unable to understand.

Clearly, continuing the attack would destroy this Flesh Nest, so why stop at this moment?

Unable to understand, Mijia put on his combat armor and flew toward space.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived at Shen's side.

"Captain Shen, I don't quite understand why you stopped the attack?"

"You only need to keep attacking, and this Flesh Nest could be completely destroyed; there is no need for the Macro Cannon at all."

Shen turned his head to look at Mijia, then explained: "First, the area of this Flesh Nest is too large; manual clearing is not worth the cost."

"Secondly, during the gradual clearing process, those Insect Eggs frozen to death by the low temperature will transmit the information they have collected back to the hive."

"If nothing goes wrong, these insects will gain the ability to resist low temperatures in a short time, and their original reproductive capacity will double once again."

Having received the explanation, Mijia suddenly realized.

Seeing Mijia's expression, Shen spoke again.

"Mijia, this place has now been taken over by us; you don't need to worry about it anymore."

"Go back and get some rest; there are more important things waiting for you to resolve after the Macro Cannon is fired."

"We have things covered here now."

Mijia originally wanted to ask what more important things were waiting for him, but Shen did not give him a chance to speak at all.

Immediately, a member of the Tianjian Squad appeared and forcibly took Mijia back to Mars.

Subsequently, this Tianjian Squad member returned to space.

One hour passed in a flash.

Shen also received a message sent by Tiangong.

"Macro Cannon energy accumulation complete!"

"Entering launch countdown: 10, 9, 8... 3..."

As the countdown entered the final three seconds.

The 12 members of the Tianjian Squad also retreated in unison at this moment; in just three seconds, they arrived near Mars.

The attack from the Macro Cannon also reached the Flesh Nest at this moment.

One could see a "bubble" fly onto the Flesh Nest, and the moment it touched the Flesh Nest.

This "bubble" suddenly burst.

And with the bursting of the bubble, the entire massive Flesh Nest vanished into thin air without any warning.

Mijia widened his eyes, yet he could barely see clearly.

It was as if that Flesh Nest had been wiped away directly by that bubble.

Such a means of attack is truly inconceivable.

The Macro Cannon... really is a terrifying thing.
