Chapter 2151 Defensive Field
Chapter 2151 Defensive Field
Chapter 2151 Defensive Field
Inside the research institute, everyone watched helplessly as the external defense fortifications were destroyed one by one, and the energy value of the outer defense force field rapidly decreased.
However, they had no choice!
In less than ten minutes, the defensive force field periphery of the research institute was shattered by the combined attacks of the Lickers and the tree spirits!
"Boom!!!"
The moment the force field shattered, a large number of Lickers swarmed into the research institute and charged toward the building.
Instantly, the alarm in the research institute rang!
"Everyone, there's no need to panic."
Seeing that the outside was completely lost, the supervisor of the research institute calmed down and said coldly, "We have already activated the internal defense mode in advance. The research institute is still very safe. They can't enter."
"The tree spirits' target is the Niam alloy. They won't easily use large-scale explosive weapons. We can stall for time. We just need to block all the entrances and all the invasion routes of the Lickers. The interference of the spiritual domain transition has been eliminated. There are less than 45 minutes left, and the transition passage will be completely restored."
"Understood!"
Everyone's emotions gradually stabilized and they began to mobilize personnel to guard the research institute.
Just as the supervisor of the research institute said, the research institute had a plan of action against external intrusion when it was first designed.
As long as they guarded the entrances and exits, they would be able to last at least three hours even if they faced a hundred times the number of enemies.
In the emergency plan of the research institute, these three hours were reserved for them to destroy the research data.
Through the surveillance monitors, everyone could see that the first wave of Lickers pouring in from various entrances to the research institute had been temporarily halted by the beam weapon cannons and the Federation's half-mechanical soldiers.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to execute the defense plan systematically.
Suddenly, one of the researchers who was controlling the device noticed something. His expression changed slightly and he immediately switched the screen.
After taking a closer look, the researcher's face revealed an incredulous expression, and his back was instantly drenched in sweat.
"Supervisor."
"What is it?"
"Please, please come and take a look."
The staff cautiously swallowed a gulp of saliva and enlarged the screen images to get a clearer view.
What the hell!
The supervisor looked at the image on the screen and frowned.
Looking closely, he saw a dense layer of worm-like creatures on the floor in the photo.
The fingernail-sized worms were connected into pieces!
D*mn it!
They had somehow infiltrated the research institute!
"Worms?!"
Seeing the dense mass of worms, everyone in the command center felt their scalps go numb.
The supervisor's expression changed drastically. He suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Quick! Check the ventilation duct!"
The scene changed.
Inside the ventilation tubes in the research institute area, large groups of worm-like creatures were slowly climbing up the tubes and climbing in from the outside through the ventilation tubes!
The staff member's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he kept switching between the various screens.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the entire ventilation system was now occupied by dense worm-like creatures!
The entire research institute's command room was dead silent.
The defense of the research institute was aimed at the tree spirits and humans. They did not expect to encounter the invasion of the worm lifeforms!
This meant that the worms were about to invade every corner of the research institute through the ventilation ducts!
"Hurry!" the supervisor of the research institute shouted, "Everyone, get moving! Seal all the openings of the ventilation tubes. If they can't be sealed, let someone keep an eye on them! Use the flintlock! We can't let the worms enter the safety zone of the research institute!"
"Understood!"
The central command room fell into chaos again.
An assistant walked up to Ji Haiting and asked in a low voice, "Director, it's very dangerous here. Should we evacuate?"
"Yes."
Ji Haiting looked at the screen, his eyes shimmering with admiration. He nodded lightly and murmured to himself, "Fang Heng, once again you've shown me something incredible today..."
Ji Haiting looked at his assistant and nodded, saying, "Let's go. It's not safe here anymore. Let's evacuate first."
"Understood. I'll immediately arrange for an emergency transition device."
...
At the same time, outside, the Federation's semi-mechanized soldiers had already retreated into the research institute before the barrier shattered. As the first batch of Lickers rushed towards the research institute, the second batch of worms also entered through the gaps outside the research institute.
The large-scale war machines and spider mechanical creatures outside the research institute had not been completely cleaned up. Senzo and a group of tree spirit elders took advantage of the chaos to break through the periphery area and enter the research institute.
The tree spirits immediately occupied the main entrance of the research institute.
A tree spirit reported, "Great Elder, we have all the entrances and exits under our control."
"Yes."
Senzo nodded slightly and scanned the situation inside the research institute.
Although the exterior of the research institute was almost completely broken through, the interior was still controlled by the OmniTech Company and the Federation.
The semi-mechanized soldiers and the psychic-enhanced guards firmly occupied the various entrances and exits of the internal passage.
On the left side of the tunnel, more than 20 soldiers in mechanical armor could be seen blocking the entrance. They were using their beam weapons to suppress the Lickers.
The research institute had not given up yet. They had only entered the internal battle from the external siege.
Senzo closed his eyes to sense.
Through their perception of life, they could sense the life information fluctuations of the trapped clansmen.
Senzo's perception lasted for a few seconds before he opened his eyes and looked to his right, saying, "Vannes and the others are there."
"Let's find a way to save Vannes and the others. They know where the Niam alloy is hidden."
"Understood!"
The tree spirits immediately nodded and went back to command the rest of the tree spirits to advance through the right passage.
A tree spirit race's elder looked around and found that Fang Heng was nowhere to be seen. He could not help but whisper, "Great Elder, that human just now..."
Senzo nodded after thinking for a moment and replied, "Yes. I'll handle it."
Fang Heng had been the target of constant attacks from the periphery Federation and OmniTech Company, with numerous large war machines controlled by them. After successfully manipulating the Licker group to deal with over ten troublesome war machines, he finally found an opportunity to use his secondary space projection ability to evade the enemies and enter the research institute.
At the entrance of the main passage inside the research institute, more than ten tree spirits who were in charge of guarding saw Fang Heng. Two of them immediately walked towards Fang Heng.
"Fang Heng, we've successfully entered the research institute, but the crisis has not been resolved. Our interference with the external warps is gradually weakening, and the Federation's war machines arriving through warps are gradually accelerating. We need your help to clear out the war machines that are coming from the outside. They will pose a great threat to us."
