99: Section 99

"This is... life source essence!"

Jing Yuan suddenly looked at the Calyx Beast. This fellow could actually absorb life source essence from such a distance?

Jing Yuan was suppressed by this strange energy, unable to move for a moment.

Jing Yuan focused his mind and gathered his breath, standing up by relying on his powerful will. He began to control the Flying Cone to fly towards the Calyx Beast's head.

The bromine mist shield on the Calyx Beast's body surface grew stronger against strong attacks and weaker against weak ones.

The Flying Cone slowed down the moment it approached the Calyx Beast's body surface, slowly pushing into its body.

Once inside, Jing Yuan used his Telekinesis to make the Flying Cone rotate rapidly.

The Calyx Beast sensed something was wrong and its body rolled rapidly! That strange mental suppression also vanished.

Jing Yuan's Mental Power swept across the Calyx Beast's body, trying to find the location of the spirit seed.

But the Calyx Beast's body seemed somewhat special; even after scanning several times, he couldn't find it.

The Flying Cone spun wildly inside the Calyx Beast. Feeling threatened, the Calyx Beast charged back into the hole in the ground and escaped.

Seeing this, Jing Yuan quickly controlled the Flying Cone to come out.

At this moment, Mark's voice came through the communicator.

"Attention all teams, the location of the medicine warehouse has been confirmed. I am heading to the target location. All other teams, return to the first-floor lobby immediately and prepare for evacuation!"

As soon as Jing Yuan heard the signal was restored, he quickly said, "Everyone, be careful on your way back. Phage Beasts have appeared in the lobby! They are Pan-genetic Type Sting Eels. They attack by shooting bone spurs from their mouths. If you encounter them, find good cover!"

"Copy that!"

After speaking, Jing Yuan went to the edge of the cave where the Calyx Beast had escaped to investigate.

He swept with his Mental Power, but surprisingly, he couldn't find any trace of the Calyx Beast.

"Jing Yuan, how's it going?" Penny asked through the communicator.

"It escaped for now. Phage Beasts have strong recovery abilities; it will come back once it recovers."

Suddenly, the body of a nearby Sting Eel moved. Jing Yuan leaped over and controlled the Flying Cone to pierce the Sting Eel's spirit seed.

The Sting Eels killed by others earlier hadn't had their spirit seeds destroyed; they would revive after a while.

Jing Yuan quickly finished them off, while also absorbing a significant amount of life source essence.

By the time he finished absorbing the remaining Sting Eels, the other teams had returned.

"What happened?"

"Phage Beasts appeared in the lobby."

"Yeah, a huge one! It was driven off!"

The Wasteland Hunters Team Members exchanged information, getting a general idea of the situation.

Jing Yuan walked over to Erica's team and said to her, "Erica, find a position for cover. I'll need your firepower in a bit."

"Yes, sir!"

"Flying Snow, find a spot at a high vantage point."

"Yes, sir!"

"Everyone!" Jing Yuan said to all the Wasteland Hunters. "Except for the gravity bodies, everyone evacuate back to The Surface and prepare. gravity body pilots, set up an ambush around here..."

Before Jing Yuan could finish, the ground shook again.

The Calyx Beast drilled out from underground again. It jumped directly into the air above the lobby, hovering as it opened the "petals" on its tail!

Jing Yuan immediately ordered, "Everyone, maximum firepower! Fire!"

Bang bang bang!

For a moment, regardless of whether it was a large or small gun, bullets and artillery shells all flew toward the Calyx Beast together.

This time, the Calyx Beast didn't dare to stand idly by and let them shoot.

The previous bromine mist shield had been broken down significantly.

The shield wasn't as strong now.

Dozens of people unleashed continuous firepower on the Calyx Beast's body surface, sending it scurrying in all directions.

This fellow's tail opened and closed, and it actually flew through the air like an octopus swimming in water!

This Calyx Beast had already evolved the ability to fly!

Time was running out for the Lighthouse.

Unable to dodge the attacks, the Calyx Beast crashed to the ground and its hands crawled rapidly toward the Wasteland Hunters team.

The two teams that had just returned hadn't had time to split up yet; a crowd of people was gathered together.

Jing Yuan leaped to the front of the team, blocking the way between the crowd and the Calyx Beast.

The Calyx Beast reached out and lunged. Jing Yuan dodged with a side slide and reached the Calyx Beast's abdomen, raising his plasma light blade battle saber to disembowel the creature.

The Calyx Beast tried to crush Jing Yuan with its body, but Jing Yuan was prepared. He escaped from under the Calyx Beast's armpit and delivered another strike as he turned back.

The Calyx Beast was being attacked repeatedly, but it could do nothing against the human before it.

In a fit of rage, it flew into the air once more.

But at this moment, a black figure appeared in the air and delivered a heavy blow to the Calyx Beast's head.

The Calyx Beast was knocked straight to the ground.

Someone in the team exclaimed, "It's Captain Mark!"

Mark looked at everyone. "Everyone evacuate, I'll cover the rear!"

Currently, no Sting Eels had appeared. Once they dealt with the Calyx Beast, they should be able to leave.

Jing Yuan directly controlled the Flying Cone to appear. A black shadow flashed and drilled straight into the Calyx Beast's body.

Without the bromine mist shield, the Calyx Beast's body was much more fragile.

In its rapid flight state, the Flying Cone pierced right through the Calyx Beast's body.

"Where is the spirit seed?"

The Calyx Beast was injured and now desperately needed life source essence to recover.

Right now, the many Wasteland Hunters were the best nourishment.

Ignoring Mark's firepower, the Calyx Beast crawled hurriedly toward the crowd.

Jing Yuan jumped high and landed heavily on the Phage Beast's head, plunging his plasma light blade battle saber into the Calyx Beast's skull.

Mark also joined the battle.

With one strike, he severed one of the Calyx Beast's arms.

Then he rushed up and slit the Calyx Beast's throat.

If it were a human, these methods would have been enough to kill it.

But this was a Phage Beast.

The Calyx Beast was still alive and kicking.

The Calyx Beast leaped up with a surge of strength, tossing Jing Yuan, who was on its head, high into the air.

Jing Yuan was thrown right up toward the ceiling. When he looked back, he saw a team led by a woman with short silver hair standing to the side.

Jing Yuan used his Telekinesis to make the war blade hover slightly in the air and smiled. "Boss Bai, have you all just been watching the show from the sidelines?"

Chapter 102: Backstab

Bai Yuekui's brows furrowed slightly, a hint of doubt appearing on her calm face.

The people behind her were not as composed, staring at Jing Yuan with wide eyes.

Jing Yuan landed as he descended. At this point, the Calyx Beast was at the end of its rope.

Mark used the plasma war blade in his hand to repeatedly wound the Calyx Beast.

The Calyx Beast stood up and spat out an Energy Breath from its mouth.

Mark used the gravity body's Thrusters to dodge at the last second.

The Calyx Beast swatted at Mark with its only remaining arm, but he dodged it and pinned the Calyx Beast's hand to the wall with his war blade.

Then, Mark controlled the gravity body to unleash a barrage of punches and kicks on the Calyx Beast.

Using only his fists, he broke one of the Calyx Beast's teeth.

Jing Yuan, falling from the air, was also extremely shocked.

As expected of the original protagonist; this ability is truly unparalleled.

Jing Yuan charged at the Calyx Beast, leaped high, and slashed at its abdomen with all his strength, carving out a massive gash.

Vaguely, Jing Yuan seemed to sense the presence of the spirit seed.

Bai Yuekui and the others stood above, watching the battle.
