But these monsters stood in their way, blocking their path.
"That is our target!"
Judge Sten shouted, pointing at the fragment glowing brightly in the alien brain, Duanmu Huai glanced at him, then looked at the glowing fragment again.
"Alright, leave it to me."
With that, Duanmu Huai stepped forward, then quickened his pace, charging forward.
Meanwhile, the monsters also surged forward, transforming into a tide, howling and sweeping through the corridor, rushing towards them!
"Fire!!"
Bombs and lasers appeared simultaneously, grenades were thrown by the mortal auxiliary forces, and quickly, continuous explosions and bullets enveloped the alien beasts. But they showed no fear, still advancing forward.
Duanmu Huai also did not stop his pace. Instead, his speed steadily increased, and while the Space Wolves did not see his speed reaching the level of Astartes, it was indeed fast — like a heavy truck starting, accelerating, then continuing to accelerate... His speed wasn't lightning-fast, nor was it dazzling or beyond reaction range, but it moved forward unswervingly, smashing everything that blocked his view into fragments.
Just like now.
"Boom!!!"
Duanmu Huai dove into the insect swarm of Genetic Thieves, they screamed, frantically waving their arms, claws sharp enough to easily pierce through Tao Gang hit the pitch-black power armor, yet not leaving a single mark. On the contrary, with a violent crash, all aliens blocking Duanmu Huai were knocked away, like snow in front of a snowplow, dense and numerous, but ultimately useless.
Duanmu Huai continued forward, his pace wasn't fast, but it wasn't slow either. His War Hammer swung out, blazing thunder exploded in the dark corridor, incinerating all enemies around into ashes. Meanwhile, the Space Wolves behind him also wielded Chainsaw Swords charging into the chaotic insect swarm, unable to match Duanmu Huai, but at least ensuring some enemies were drawn away from him.
On the other side, it was the same with the Judges, as the mortal auxiliary forces launched an attack, throwing grenades at the enemies ahead, engulfing them in flames.
The swarm suffered heavy losses, yet they did not care and continued rushing towards Duanmu Huai, trying to stop him, as if this was their most important task at the moment. They sacrificed everything for this, including their lives!
However, it was ultimately useless.
"Bang!"
Duanmu Huai's War Hammer lifted high, smashing down forcefully on a huge monster, knocking it to the ground. Then he stepped on the corpse, suddenly leaping forward towards the twisted brain affected by the Corrupted Mech Soul. He reached forward and struck. The translucent membrane outside the brain shattered like plastic, then the entire brain exploded.
Duanmu Huai landed heavily on the ground, with a resounding crash, and beside him, those aliens no longer continued to fight. They collapsed to the ground like puppets that lost their strings, then completely melted into a foul-smelling, yellow-green sludge.
At this moment, Judge Sten and Carla arrived at Duanmu Huai's side, panting, they saw Duanmu Huai turn around to face them, then extend his right hand.
There, the gem fragment flickering with green light was clearly visible.
