73: Section 73

Two minutes later, Erica met up with Jing Yuan, bringing the weapons. When she saw the large number of Phage Beasts on The Surface, she couldn't help but be startled.

"My goodness! There are so many Phage Beasts!"

Chapter 74: Still Following the Script?

Jing Yuan observed that some of the Phage Beasts in the pack were already starting to get restless.

A Snake Dog seemed to catch a scent and followed it toward the hole in the spaceship.

"Oh no, that Snake Dog seems to have discovered people inside the spaceship!"

"Captain, have you found an exit?"

"Almost! We found some more supplies!"

Watching the distant Snake Dog enter the spaceship, Erica hurriedly asked, "Should we stop that Phage Beast?"

Jing Yuan looked into the distance; if they attacked with missiles now, it would inevitably attract the attention of the other Phage Beasts.

"No! Mark can handle a single Snake Dog." After saying this, Jing Yuan opened the communication frequency and said, "Captain, a Snake Dog has entered the spaceship and is likely headed your way!"

"Understood!"

As time passed minute by minute, the Phage Beasts in the pack gradually began to react.

Suddenly, the sound of gunfire and chaotic voices came through the communication frequency.

"We've encountered Spinal Gu!"

"Emergency retreat! Fast!"

"We found the exit!"

"Hurry!"

Listening to the voices on the communication frequency, Jing Yuan felt a bad premonition.

Even without 4068, the team inside the spaceship still encountered a swarm of Spinal Gu.

Then, even without Donnie, they would still encounter Phage Beasts.

"Captain!" Jing Yuan hurriedly shouted, "Watch out for Phage Beasts!"

"It's already here!" Mark's voice came through coldly.

This was followed by the sound of a struggle.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a Phage Beast let out a long howl toward the sky. It seemed to have suddenly confirmed the presence of humans nearby and began to look around, searching for the source of the scent.

At the same time, the affected Phage Beasts stood up one after another.

"Erica, aim for the front of the spaceship and fire a missile!"

"On it!"

Jing Yuan and Erica each shouldered a rocket and fired at their respective targets.

Jing Yuan's target was the nearby mountain.

The missile plunged into the mountain, causing it to collapse and block the Phage Beasts' path!

Jing Yuan reached the shortest path between Area A and Area B, pulled out his gravity body Greatsword, and waited quietly!

"Erica, leave this to me! Go support the main group!"

"Can you handle it alone?"

"Don't worry, if I can't win, I'll run!"

"I'd better stay and help you!"

"That's an order!" Seeing that he couldn't convince her, Jing Yuan directly exerted pressure using his status as Deputy Captain.

"I'm just worried about you being alone..."

"Protecting the supplies is the top priority! Now go!"

Jing Yuan was right; the most important task for the Wasteland Hunters was to protect the supplies.

"Alright!"

Erica stopped arguing and quickly retreated to the rear.

Once Jing Yuan saw Erica leave, the ten flying daggers hidden in his shield quietly unsheathed and slowly formed the Flying Cone.

Currently, Jing Yuan could use four streams of Telekinesis, but he only had one Flying Cone.

However, the four streams of Telekinesis could be stacked, and he really wanted to see what kind of power the Flying Cone would have when controlled by four stacked streams of Telekinesis.

Jing Yuan had used the missile to destroy the mountain and block the Phage Beasts' advance, which prevented them from swarming him all at once.

Amidst the sky-filling dust, a Snake Dog suddenly rushed out.

With a thought, Jing Yuan controlled the Flying Cone to fly out at high speed!

Swish!

The Flying Cone was like a bolt of black lightning, instantly piercing through the Snake Dog's body.

This strike did not hit its spirit seed.

However, it still caused the Snake Dog to temporarily die.

At that moment, another Snake Dog rushed out.

Jing Yuan once again controlled the Flying Cone to pierce the Snake Dog.

Although Jing Yuan could find the location of the spirit seed through his Mental Power, the Flying Cone lacked precision while moving at high speeds and could not attack a target as small as a spirit seed.

As the second, third, and fourth Snake Dogs appeared, Jing Yuan didn't just control the Flying Cone; his main body wasn't idle either, as he charged forward in his gravity body.

In this wave of Phage Beasts, besides Snake Dogs, there were also Earth Roars and some small Pan-genetic Type Phage Beasts that had not yet been named.

In comparison, the small Phage Beasts had lower physical defense, and Jing Yuan could basically take them down with one strike each.

Although the Earth Roars looked powerful,

as long as one dodged their ranged attacks, their melee reactions were too slow, making them nothing more than targets.

Only the Snake Dogs, with their relatively balanced defense and speed, were the most difficult to deal with.

Of course, that was only relative.

The Snake Dogs had another advantage: their numbers.

With Greatsword in hand and Telekinesis controlling the Flying Cone, Jing Yuan slew over a dozen Phage Beasts in the span of ten breaths.

However, their numbers were still too great.

Suddenly, a signal flare appeared in the sky.

Jing Yuan had told Penny to fire a signal flare if they encountered a Phage Beast attack.

He hadn't expected that while he had blocked the Phage Beasts on this side, others would still attack the main group from another direction!

Jing Yuan activated the gravity body's thrusters, leaped into the air, and flew directly toward the main group.

On the main group's side, after Mark emerged from the spaceship, he attracted a Snake Dog and countless Spinal Gu.

Mark quickly donned a gravity body and used his powerful combat skills to slay the Snake Dog, but more Snake Dogs soon emerged from unknown locations.

Yet, the most difficult thing to deal with right now was the Spinal Gu.

Though the Spinal Gu were weak, they could release crimson toxin!

"Damn it!" Donnie used his rifle to spray bullets at the Spinal Gu! He completely disregarded where the Spinal Gu were!

Even if they were crawling on people, he fired without hesitation!

"Ah!"

The Dust Citizens had no weapons; against the Spinal Gu, they could only be crawled upon!

One Dust Citizen had a Spinal Gu crawling on his head; struggling all the way, he actually ran in front of Donnie.

Seeing this, Dust Citizen 4079 wanted to go up and help.

However, Donnie had already aimed his gun at the Dust Citizen.

He didn't care about the Dust Citizens; in his eyes, their lives were worthless.

Sensing the danger, 4068 shoved 4079 aside.

Bang!

A bullet pierced the Spinal Gu's head, but at the same time, it also pierced the Dust Citizen's head.

4079, who had been pressed down by 4068, saw this and felt lucky to have escaped a disaster!

After firing the signal flare, Penny immediately joined the team fighting the Spinal Gu.

Her marksmanship was precise; even if a Spinal Gu was crawling on someone's head, she could accurately hit the Spinal Gu without harming the person.

"Donnie! Don't hurt the people!"
