Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Of One Mind

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM...

Massive explosions erupted one after another.

One transport even charged straight at Felim, attempting a suicide run.

Unfortunately, it was blasted apart by a dark red beam of light before it could even get close.

Everyone who witnessed this felt a pang of anguish.

Just then, Long Ming glanced at the soldiers jumping down. There were at least thirty thousand of them.

’It seems these two cities aren’t so simple. They were both holding an ace up their sleeve.’

’To be able to airdrop thirty thousand people at this stage of the fight... their capabilities are not to be underestimated.’

Still, this was a good thing. If they hadn’t come, we would have been completely wiped out.

As the soldiers from the two cities joined the battle, the tide turned in an instant.

The light of dusk began to fall, and the sky gradually cleared.

"ROAR!"

Seeing that all the Blood Breath Spiders climbing the structure had been killed, Felim roared in fury and began moving toward the base.

Qiansha watched the approaching Felim and called out.

"Brubo, Agaka, you dare follow me down and take that thing out?"

"What’s to be afraid of?"

Brubo and Agaka retorted with scorn.

"Alright, let’s go!"

The three of them charged straight ahead and leaped from the edge of the disc-shaped platform. Swinging their weapons, they cut down one pouncing Blood Breath Beast after another as they carved a path toward Felim.

Seeing this, Captain Alang immediately roared to his subordinates.

"Covering fire!"

The soldiers immediately opened fire, unleashing a fierce barrage on the Blood Breath Beasts around Qiansha and the others.

Felim saw the approaching trio and swept its massive, blade-like foreleg at them.

Qiansha’s muscles bulged as he pushed the power of his heavy armor to its limit. He and Brubo simultaneously raised their weapons to block!

CLANG!

The spider-blade slammed down on their swords.

Terrifying Power bore down on both Qiansha and Brubo.

The two were pushed back relentlessly, but they gritted their teeth and held on.

Just then, Agaka leaped onto the very blade they were blocking and sprinted toward Felim.

Before Felim could react, Agaka leaped up and plunged his blade through one of its blood-red eyes.

"SKREEE!"

Felim thrashed its head in fury.

Agaka immediately ripped his blade free and leaped back, creating distance.

Seeing an opening, Qian Luobing, Qian Hai, Qian Wei, Luoxue, and the others charged forward.

Long Ming saw this and also threw caution to the wind, following without a moment’s hesitation.

They leaped down from the edge of the platform and charged at Felim.

"Cut its legs!"

Long Ming shouted to the others.

"Understood!"

Luoxue and the others replied in unison.

Long Ming quickly closed the distance, swinging his Dark Blade at one of the segmented legs.

CRACK!

The Dark Blade instantly hacked a gash into the leg.

Qian Luobing and the others also began hacking at Felim’s other segmented legs.

"SKREEE!

Felim reeled in pain.

It abandoned Qiansha and his team, furiously swinging its bladed legs toward Long Ming’s group instead.

Long Ming and the others deftly dodged the attack.

The massive bladed leg sliced through empty air.

Long Ming swung his Dark Blade again with all his might, striking the gash he had just created.

CRACK!

One of Felim’s segmented legs was severed, and its massive body immediately lurched to one side.

Seizing the opportunity, Qiansha leaped onto Felim’s tilting body. He drove his greatsword into it and carved a gruesome gash upward.

Felim thrashed wildly, flinging Qiansha away.

Brubo and the others took the opportunity to hack at its other segmented legs.

CRACK... SNAP~

One after another, its segmented legs were severed.

Felim’s massive body listed further to the side.

Qian Luobing rushed in and landed a mighty blow on Felim’s listing body, carving deeply into its flesh.

Felim roared. Its abdomen swelled instantly, its rear jutted upward, and it began to convulse.

"Watch out!"

Luoxue shouted, sensing the danger.

POP~

It sprayed round, red, fleshy spheres into the sky.

These red spheres rained down indiscriminately on Long Ming and his comrades.

Long Ming and the others scrambled to dodge.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The red spheres detonated upon landing, and the massive explosions engulfed everyone.

「The next second.」

They emerged from the explosions, looking battered and ragged.

Just then, Felim’s crimson eyes locked onto Qian Hai. It opened its maw, charging a violent red beam.

"Young Master, watch out!"

Qian Ying shrieked upon seeing this.

Startled, Qian Hai immediately leaped to his right.

ZZZZT!

A red beam shot out, striking the exact spot where Qian Hai had been standing.

BOOM!

The massive explosion blasted him away.

Qian Hai slammed heavily onto the ground. His chest armor was shattered, blood flowed freely, and his head was ringing. He couldn’t get up.

Felim raised one of its bladed legs and brought it down on Qian Hai.

’He’s finished!’

The thought flashed through the minds of Long Ming and the others.

Just then, Qian Ying ignored the danger and rushed forward. She grabbed Qian Hai and rolled, dodging the descending blade-leg.

Qiansha and Qian Wei decisively charged Felim, simultaneously swinging their weapons to sever two more of its segmented legs.

Felim was about to attack again when half of its body tilted and hit the ground.

Long Ming and the others took the opportunity to rush forward, landing blow after blow on Felim and carving out numerous wounds.

Felim struggled desperately to rise, but it couldn’t keep its footing.

Its immense size had become a liability.

Just then, Brubo and Agaka exchanged a look, leaped onto Felim’s body, and charged straight for its head.

"HRAAAGH!"

Brubo thrust his weapon deep into its head, violently cracking it open to reveal a throbbing red sac within.

Agaka then pulled out a red Explosive Bullet, activated it, and threw it inside. The two then turned and leaped away in opposite directions.

BOOM~

With a massive explosion, Felim’s head was blown to smithereens.

"SKREEEEE!"

Felim let out a final, agonizing shriek. But it didn’t fall. Mustering every last bit of its strength, it charged toward the platform.

CRASH~

Finally, it collapsed defiantly at the very edge of the base.

"We finally dealt with it."

Qian Wei and the others said, panting for breath.

Just then, a black tide of Blood Breath Beasts surged toward them.

Captain Alang roared.

"Fall back, now!"

Hearing Captain Alang, Long Ming and the others immediately turned to look.

They saw countless Blood Breath Beasts charging forward, braving the incoming fire.

"Damn it!"

Long Ming and the others immediately scrambled onto Felim’s body and leaped toward the platform.

The black tide of Blood Breath Beasts also swarmed onto Felim’s corpse, using its body to pursue them.

Long Ming glanced back, his expression changing slightly as he said,

"This is bad. The monsters are using Felim’s corpse as a stepping stone."

"Damn it! So that’s why the damn thing made a desperate final charge before it died!"

Qiansha cursed in fury.

"So what do we do now? Retreating to the top of the platform is useless at this point,"

Agaka said in a grim voice.

"Then we’ll make our stand here."

Qiansha came to a dead stop.

Seeing this, Long Ming and the others also halted.
