Chapter 518: Chapter 251: Alien Martial Artist 2
"Understood!" Han Ruoxi gritted her teeth, continuing to manipulate her Electric Shield in an attempt to block the enemy’s offensive.
Meanwhile, Shen Qiuyue and Bai Lin were already locked in a fierce battle with the enemy on the eastern flank.
Flashes from Shen Qiuyue’s sword flickered in the darkness as she swiftly and precisely repelled the raids of several Alien Martial Artists.
Bai Lin, on the other hand, was using his hacking equipment to interfere with the enemy’s communications and tactical deployments, fighting to give the squad a greater combat advantage.
"Captain Li, the enemy on the eastern flank is strong! We need support!" Bai Lin’s anxious voice came over the comms.
Li Chang’an frowned. He knew that if the eastern defensive line was breached, the entire energy station would be in jeopardy.
However, he was currently facing a fierce enemy onslaught himself and was unable to provide immediate support.
"Han Ruoxi, hold the western flank! Sun Yang, with me! We’re reinforcing the east!" Li Chang’an made a swift decision. "Bai Lin, Shen Qiuyue, just hold on a little longer. We’re coming now!"
"Understood!" Han Ruoxi replied, continuing to fend off the attack from the west.
Li Chang’an led Sun Yang and raced toward the eastern front. Just as they reached the edge of the fighting, they saw several Alien Martial Artists closing in on Shen Qiuyue and Bai Lin’s defensive line.
Although Shen Qiuyue’s Swordsmanship was sharp and deadly, she was heavily outnumbered, and her defense was beginning to strain.
"Shen Qiuyue, fall back!" Li Chang’an commanded. With a fierce swing of his Saw Chain Sword, a powerful wave of Sword Qi instantly forced back several approaching enemies.
He lunged forward, swiftly taking Shen Qiuyue’s place and confronting the enemy head-on.
"About time!" Shen Qiuyue quickly fell back to catch her breath, then moved to Bai Lin’s side to provide him with close-quarters protection.
"Sun Yang, covering fire!" Li Chang’an yelled, his Saw Chain Sword hacking ferociously at the enemies before him.
"Roger that!" Sun Yang immediately raised his Pulse Gun and unleashed a torrent of fire. A stream of beams slammed into the enemy, covering Li Chang’an’s assault.
The Alien Martial Artists’ offensive was ferocious, but under Li Chang’an’s powerful counterattack, their advance gradually slowed.
Li Chang’an’s Swordsmanship was incredibly fast, each strike imbued with immense power. The enemy was completely unable to withstand his relentless assault.
Shen Qiuyue and Bai Lin’s teamwork grew increasingly seamless, successfully locking down the enemy’s flank.
The battle continued for several dozen minutes, and the enemy’s assault finally began to show signs of fatigue.
The Insect Hunter Squad gradually gained the upper hand, pushing the enemy back to the outer perimeter.
"They’re retreating!" Sun Yang shouted excitedly. "We won again!"
"Do not pursue! Hold the line!" Li Chang’an ordered decisively. "They might have an ambush waiting!"
Everyone immediately halted their pursuit, reformed their ranks, and remained on high alert.
The enemies’ figures gradually vanished into the distant darkness, having seemingly retreated for the moment.
"We’re safe, for now," Li Chang’an said, breathing a sigh of relief. He then looked at the others. "Everyone did a great job, but don’t let your guard down. They could attack again at any moment!"
Han Ruoxi rushed over to the eastern flank. Seeing that the situation had stabilized, she clapped Li Chang’an on the shoulder. "Good thing you all reinforced us when you did. We really couldn’t have held out much longer!"
"This wave of enemies was tougher than the last," Shen Qiuyue said calmly, wiping her sword. "But we held them off."
"Agreed, but we can’t get careless," Li Chang’an said, gazing into the distant darkness. "Their main force hasn’t revealed itself. The hardest part is yet to come."
Li Chang’an led the Insect Hunter Squad in re-establishing their defensive line. Everyone quickly reset, doing their best to recover their stamina during the brief lull.
"Captain Li, you think they’ll be back anytime soon? We really hammered that last wave!" Sun Yang couldn’t help but say as he checked his Pulse Gun, his face still flushed with the excitement of battle.
"Not for now, but don’t get complacent," Li Chang’an’s voice remained calm, his gaze fixed on the distant darkness. "Their main force has yet to appear. This battle is far from over."
Han Ruoxi walked over, her Electric Energy Equipment still powered up. Her voice held a hint of fatigue. "Captain Li, the enemy retreated too quickly this time. Do you think they’re planning something bigger?"
"It’s possible," Li Chang’an frowned. "Their past two attacks felt like probes. A larger-scale offensive could be next."
Shen Qiuyue remained on the defensive line, her grip tightening on her sword. "We can’t give them a single opening," she said calmly. "The instant we see any movement, we have to counterattack."
Li Chang’an nodded and was about to continue arranging the defenses when suddenly, Bai Lin’s voice crackled over the comms, tinged with urgency. "Captain Li, I have important intel! The base’s recon system just detected a massive Alien Martial Artist fleet approaching the energy station from the planet’s outer orbit! ETA five minutes!"
"What? They have a fleet?" Sun Yang was stunned, the relaxed expression on his face vanishing instantly. "Captain Li, what’s the plan? There are so many of them... can we stop them?"
Li Chang’an’s gaze hardened with resolve. He made his decision in an instant. "All units, on my command, prepare to engage! This is the final, critical moment. No matter how many of them there are, we will not retreat!"
"Understood!" all the squad members responded in unison, instantly shifting to a combat footing.
At that moment, the distant horizon began to light up with flickering glints of light. The Alien Martial Artist fleet was descending slowly. The battle was about to erupt.
Li Chang’an stood at the head of his squad, Saw Chain Sword held tight, his expression firm and composed.
He knew this was a battle for their very survival, but he felt no fear.
The Insect Hunter Squad had proven their strength time and time again, and this time would be no different.
"Listen up!" Li Chang’an’s voice was low but filled with power. "We cannot lose this battle! We will defend the energy station and protect our base!"
Han Ruoxi clutched the Electric Power Device in her hands, her face set with determination. "They’re here! I’m ready!"
Shen Qiuyue’s sword vibrated slightly in her hand, her gaze as sharp as lightning. "We will not retreat!"
Sun Yang, his usual carefree attitude gone, had eyes burning with fighting spirit. "This time, I swear they won’t get a single step past us!"
Bai Lin remained calm in the combat information center, precisely analyzing the enemy’s movements. "They’ve entered firing range. You are clear to open fire!"
"Fire!" Li Chang’an commanded.
Instantly, all the defensive armaments around the energy station opened up. Electric Energy, Pulse Beams, and various other Energy Weapons fired in unison, slamming directly into the enemy fleet.
The sky exploded in a blinding flash of light. The battle had well and truly begun.
The Alien Martial Artist fleet returned fire fiercely. Beams of light crisscrossed the sky as the energy station’s defensive systems ran at full power.
Every member of the Insect Hunter Squad gave their all, stubbornly resisting the enemy onslaught.
The battle raged for nearly an hour. The enemy’s assault grew ever more ferocious, and the energy station’s defenses began to take damage.
Time and again, Li Chang’an led his squad members onto the battlefield, clashing with the Alien Martial Artists.
"Captain Li, we can’t let them get near the energy core!" Han Ruoxi shouted, the Electric Energy she was wielding pushed to its absolute limit.
"Hold on! Reinforcements will be here soon!" Li Chang’an gasped for breath, yet he continued to command the squad with unwavering resolve.
Just as the battle reached its most critical point, a powerful beam of Energy suddenly streaked in from the distance, striking the Alien Martial Artists’ capital ship.
Immediately afterward, the base’s reinforcements arrived. They swiftly joined the fray, completely shattering the enemy’s offensive.
"The reinforcements are here!" Sun Yang yelled excitedly, raising his Pulse Gun. "We’ve won!"
Li Chang’an let out a long sigh of relief. Watching the alien fleet in the sky fall into disarray, he could finally relax.
They had successfully defended the energy station.
"Everyone did a great job!"
