Chapter 444: Chapter 117: Rapid Decline_2
Overcome with emotion, Link couldn’t help but let out an almost inaudible sigh.
“What? What did you say?”
Lanny, who was standing closest, barely heard a word, “broke”, yet couldn’t catch the rest, immediately asked.
“Nothing.”
Link didn’t want to explain such concerns further, promptly changing the subject, “Let’s get back to our work.”
With that, Link sped up his hand movements.
Under Tiffany’s watchful gaze, Fred also stopped paying attention to the other side.
The two research groups accelerated the progress of their live research.
On the other side.
Looking at the open space in front of her, Sandra’s mood brightened, no longer oppressed with worries.
Her seven companions were used to it, they had long become accustomed to Sandra’s style of dimensional strikes whenever she felt upset.
In her words, problems that could be solved with magic stones were not problems.
The cold-looking young man was about to speak.
Suddenly, he covered his ears, fell to the ground in pain, his body trembled once, then everything ceased. He was not dead, but he was not far from death either, teetering on the edge.
His protective suit’s life-sustaining feature timely put him into a mortuary state, keeping his last breath.
Thus, he did not die instantly during the sudden attack.
The other three members of the academy’s main family who had also had direct interactions with the Insect Race fell into the same pseudo-death state at the same time, barely maintaining their lives.
Until all four of them fell to the ground, in a state of near-death, barely saving their lives.
A piercing scream came from deep underground.
The defensive cover previously set by Sandra was impacted by the waves of the scream, rippling layer upon layer, and after a standoff for a while, it still didn’t hold up.
Like tempered glass, it broke into small pieces with a crash.
Only the power of the scream was cut off for the most part.
After breaching the defense, the aftermath of the scream smoothly reached the ears of the remaining people.
Even though its power was cut off again and again, it still caused certain damage.
Several clanging sounds in succession.
The knives in the hands of Lanny, Tiffany, and Fred fell to the ground involuntarily.
Fred’s first reaction was to cover his ears, and then following Tiffany’s reminder, he blocked his hearing with his spiritual power and magic power.
Blood oozed from his ears, eyes, nostrils, and corners of his mouth, presenting a scene of misery.
Even his internal organs were impacted and feeling a sweetness in his throat, he spewed out a mouthful of blood.
Link, on the other hand, was not greatly affected, holding his knife steadily, without even a tremble.
Fully enclosed in his battle armor and with Franda timely stacking one more of her destiny witchcraft “Battle Armor”, he completely resisted the aftermath of this sonic attack.
Sandra and the other three didn’t come into direct contact with the Insect Race and had time to cushion the impact, so after promptly protecting the four fallen companions, they solidly defended against this sudden sonic attack without any effect.
“Cloud Rainbow!”
After sending out several healing magic spells to the four companions lying on the ground just in time to sustain their lives, Sandra shouted out at the same time.
The “Cloud Rainbow” interstellar battleship in outer space immediately responded, lowering 12 transfer light pillars, and just before the second wave of scream attack, timely teleporting all members of the mini legion back.
The shuttle parked at the landing spot automatically ascended, leaving the planet and flying towards “Cloud Rainbow”.
“Quick, get them to the medical cabin.”
As soon as she settled down, Sandra issued an instruction to the tower spirit.
The tower spirit had already acted according to the contingency plan, controlling four emergency vehicles with life-sustaining functions, sustaining the lives of the four wizards in near-death state.
Upon Sandra’s command, without waiting, they were immediately sent to the well-equipped medical cabin.
“What just happened?”
After handling the emergency measures, Sandra fires her questions at both the tower spirit and the legion members.
She had a serious tone and a gloomy demeanor.
She hadn’t anticipated that her smooth going operation would reverse.
This put Sandra in a bad mood.
She couldn’t understand how that scream bypassed her defenses, “killed” her four companions first, and then hit the protective cover.
Moreover, the defense cover that could withstand a casual hit from a Fourth-level Sage actually shattered under the attack of that anomalous scream!
This left Sandra in shock.
She had a faint feeling that things were spiraling out of her control.
The task, seemingly in her grasp, somehow took a twist.
The Level 3 Insect World that she held in her hands had yet concealed a startling secret.
“I don’t know.”
The round-faced youth had an expression of residual fear, his voice trembling slightly, “I only had time to protect against the attack and didn’t consider tracing the origin of the attack.”
“Humph!”
Sandra let out an unhappy nasal sound, and looked at the companion in charge of the primary reconnaissance and asked, “What’s the current status?”
The companion in charge of the reconnaissance turned his head, his face filled with disbelief, “All reconnaissance magic tools have all lost connection!”
“What?”
Sandra’s voice involuntarily raised.
Having fended off with the Insect World for so many years, the Wizard World knew the various characteristics of the Insect Race.
That’s why, before taking on the mission and forming her mini-legion, Sandra had studied the relevant materials.
The custom-made reconnaissance magic tools were all special versions made to resist the Insect Race’s interference.
Just the magic stones spent on buying these reconnaissance magic tools could have allowed a pharmacist like Link Grande to be totally busy for three months.
Such a substantial investment completely went to waste without a clue, not even a ripple was heard.
The secret hidden in this Insect World was indeed not small.
