Chapter 130: Ambush

"Ha ha, this battle was really smooth!"

In the cabin of the triangular spaceship, everyone in the squad was in a very good mood.

They didn't expect that this time they would so easily slay an alien squad led by an Immortal God!

"Ha ha, how about it? The detector you all pooled money to upgrade back then wasn't a waste, right?"

The captain Feilei, who looked like a golden‑haired ape‑man, laughed smugly.

The reason their fight was so easy this time was mainly that their detector was far more advanced than the opponent's, directly jamming the enemy's detection signal.

Only then could they seize the advantage.

"Captain, you're wise!"

A few veteran members smiled and praised.

"Captain, quickly take a look at this haul!"

Gutou cheerfully suggested.

This time they killed one Immortal God and five Alien Realm Lords, and there were still plenty of loot.

The group placed the freshly gathered loot into a World Ring.

Captain Feilei glanced briefly, then laughed:

"Against that Immortal God this time, besides me, Liuli contributed the most, and there was no Military Merit gain. From the Immortal God's loot, I take fifty percent, Liuli takes thirty percent, and the remaining twenty percent comes from killing those Realm Lords—divide it among you."

"Alright, thank you, Captain!"

The veteran members all nodded, with no objections.

Who contributes the most gets the biggest share; that's basically the rule for all human squads.

They laughed and divided the loot arbitrarily—those with Military Merit got a smaller share, those without got a larger share.

Even Zhou Yang received loot amounting to nearly forty Hunyuan Units.

He didn't make a fuss and calmly took it.

He didn't value the loot much; he simply didn't want to spoil everyone's sharing mood.

"We basically had no major losses this time and don't need resupply; let's keep moving!"

After quickly distributing the loot, at Captain Feilei's command they proceeded to the next hunt.

Zhou Yang's squad, led by Captain Feilei, took the initiative to strike, constantly hunting suitable alien targets.

Relying on a superior high‑grade detector that far outclassed peers, they could spot enemies earlier.

If they encountered an unbeatable foe, Feilei would order an early retreat.

But if they found a viable target, they wouldn't let it slip.

First Feilei would fire a distant shot, then Liuli would unleash a powerful talent to control the field, and the squad would swarm together!

As long as they don't face an alien squad with two or more Immortal Gods, their squad's setup is practically invincible!

Nevertheless, they stayed vigilant, compressing each battle's duration to the limit and leaving quickly after a kill, leaving no chance for others to profit covertly.

With such precise, efficient hunting, both Military Merit and resource gains were impressive, and the squad's morale stayed high.

Of course, except Zhou Yang.

He has been entering the Extraterritorial Battlefield with the squad for almost a year.

In that year, they fought 17 battles, killing nine Immortal Gods and 119 Alien Realm Lords.

Those results are already spectacular for a squad led by an Ordinary Immortal.

However, for Zhou Yang, the rate of gaining Military Merit from such battles was far too slow.

Up to now, he has barely accumulated 32 million Military Merit.

"It seems that to quickly amass enough Military Merit and become free, the target must be Immortal Gods!"

Just as he thought that, his face froze in a slight daze.

"No way, I just finished speaking, and now an alien squad shows up at the door?"

He knew the detector's importance, so before leaving Chaos City he spent 2.5 billion Hunyuan Units to buy a large and a small set of combined detectors.

Detectors of this class even exceed the standard equipment of an ordinary Seal King Immortal, and their detection capability is correspondingly powerful.

At this moment, his large detector had already spotted an alien ship rapidly approaching from each of the three directions.

The three alien ships were extremely fast, soon reaching a distance of less than ten million kilometers.

Meanwhile, everyone in the cabin, including Immortal God Feilei, chatted leisurely, oblivious to the enemy's arrival.

"Always bullying others with a high‑grade detector—does this count as karma coming back?"

Zhou Yang sighed inwardly, already ready to strike.

According to the detector's feedback, the three alien ships sequentially released five Alien Immortal Gods.

And between the claws of those five Immortal Gods, bright Divine Power glows began to flare.

The next second—

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Five scorching light clusters composed of compressed Divine Power almost simultaneously struck the triangular spaceship they were aboard!

"Bad, enemy ambush! Prepare for impact!"

Feilei could only shout loudly.

"Chichichi~~~"

The next second, the ship's outer hull tore and melted like paper, and a massive barrage slammed into the core cabin made entirely of F9-grade Metal.

Inside the cabin, Zhou Yang and the others felt a sudden shock, and the core cabin immediately rolled and flew out in chaos!

"Ha, cunning humans, using F9-grade Metal to forge a survival pod!"

A mocking laugh rang out as massive silhouettes quickly surrounded them.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The four cabin doors of the chamber opened simultaneously, and the members of the Realm Lord elite squad rushed out in pairs, while the Immortal God Feilei casually stowed the core chamber.

However, the moment they saw their surroundings, the entire squad's faces instantly changed.

"Five Alien Immortals!"

Even the squad leader, Immortal God Feilei, felt a jolt in his heart.

Around them, five huge figures shrouded in intense law fluctuations stood suspended in midair.

Of these five Alien Immortals, three likely belong to the same species.

They each have a ferocious lizard-like head, their bodies covered in black scales, limbs lying on the ground, and jagged bone spurs growing at their joints, looking extremely terrifying.

In the other two directions, there is an immortal over a hundred kilometers tall resembling a gigantic transparent jellyfish, and a giant blue‑wolf immortal nearly ten thousand meters tall, its whole body covered in blue fur.

Powerful auras locked onto the people below, almost rendering them unable to move.

Especially the gigantic transparent jellyfish over a hundred li tall, its law fluctuations were as vast as the sea, far surpassing the other four.

Under his lock, even veteran Realm Lord soldiers like Liuli and Gutou felt their souls tremble.

"Five Alien Immortals, and one of them is a powerful Mingquan Clan member—we're done for."

The squad members instantly fell into despair.
