Chapter 496: Stalemate and Hard Fight
“But Tombstone said that now the team is also besieged by a group of Red Barracuda Raiders. They are also running on their own, so they can’t help for now.”
Fang Linyan nodded and said,
“Okay, it doesn’t matter. We can wait for another chance.”
The 3 of them were peeking at the fight inside with [Mechanical Gyrfalcon].
It was apparent that although the Red Barracuda Star Pirates had the upper hand, the defenders were very resistant to pressure. They launched several attacks in a row, but they were still pushed back forcefully.
Obviously, the 3 contractor teams inside did not use all their power. They just let Latvis’ defense system defend in front while taking a defensive stance.
If Latvis himself was not in danger, then they would definitely not go all out.
Suddenly, the Red Barracuda Star Pirates launched another round of attack.
This time, Bas Carr activated the force shield and rushed forward with heavy steps!
Behind them, a group of Red Barracuda Raiders surged out.
The defense system deployed by Latvis instantly focused the force shield, directly causing tons of damage.
Even so, the shield lasted for more than 5 seconds before it turned red, then the translucent force shield disappeared.
In this case, the other 2 Red Barracuda Star Pirate Tyrants also pushed forward with force shields, and the rest fired a volley at one of the machine gun turrets.
In the blink of an eye, the machine gun turret emitted billowing smoke and exploded!
Of course, Latvis also launched a counterattack. A stream of liquid nitrogen was sprayed from the wall.
A Red Barracuda Raider was instantly frozen into an ice statue.
A net shot out from a mechanism nearby, covering a Red Barracuda Raider.
The net seemed to be very sticky. The raider couldn’t break free no matter how hard he struggled, then he was eventually shot to death.
Seeing these mechanisms, Fang Linyan frowned thoughtfully.
Although the Red Barracuda Star Pirates had suffered casualties, they didn’t panic. After receiving a command, they retreated like a tide.
Their goal was very clear now. They must concentrate their efforts on destroying the defense system built by Latvis in an orderly manner. It would be better to eliminate 1 of the mechanisms rather than damaging it!
At the same time, from the shooting blind spot, Red Barracuda Star Pirates placed a silver box to let Red Barracuda Star Pirate Tyrants and Bas Carr charge their force shields.
Once the force shields were recharged, they could launch another round of attack!
If there was only Latvis here, then obviously the pirates’ plan would succeed without a doubt, but there were still 3 contractor teams here!
So, when the Red Barracuda Star Pirates attacked again, a contractor suddenly stood up and tore a scroll.
Immediately, Bas Carr, who was rushing ahead, suddenly flew up involuntarily, revealing a huge opening.
The spell recorded in this consumable scroll was called: Gravity!
The effect was very simple, which instantly removed the weight from Bas Carr.
Although they were on the spacecraft at this time, for the health and convenience of the crew, the gravity system was turned on.
In this case, Bas Carr would of course fly like a feather.
Seizing this opening, all contractors, including Latvis, launched a counterattack.
Especially Latvis, he even dispatched the 2 heavy-armed robots that were bigger than Bas Carr.
The 2 guys wielded chainsaws and caused huge damage to the Red Barracuda Raiders who switched from shield to electromagnetic rifle.
Several Red Barracuda Raiders were cut in half. Body fluids mixed with milky white nutrient solution splashed all over the place. Some of the Red Barracuda Raider’s limbs were still trying to fire.
Although the Red Barracuda Star Pirates suffered a big loss this time, when the gravity spell ended on Bas Carr, he immediately took the lead in launching a strong counterattack!
They even destroyed a heavy robot sent by Latvis.
After a successful attack, Red Barracuda Star Pirates retreated like a tide again.
Several Team Blood contractors wanted to pursue them, but they were stopped by Bas Carr’s [Electric Chain Shock].
Among these contractors, the leader was Giannis!
Then a large number of Red Barracuda Star Pirates swarmed up.
At this moment, Giannis used a trump card, which should be a consumable item.
With a thump, a thick ice wall with a width of 20 meters and a thickness of more than 1 meter was summoned in front, successfully blocking the enemies.
This ice wall blocked the electromagnetic rifle shots of at least a dozen Red Barracuda Star Pirates. Even Bas Carr roared and waved his flail 3 times at the ice wall to no avail.
By the time the enemies planned to bypass the ice wall, Giannis and others had recovered from the paralyze and withdrawn.
Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan’s eyes suddenly lit up, then his breathing became slightly quickened.
Why would Giannis take the risk to pursue?
It was because they managed to beat a Red Barracuda Raider to death, but he was rescued by his companions.
Giannis was quite greedy, so he lost a precious life-saving tool for a small gain.
Fang Linyan’s concern wasn’t Giannis, but the dying Red Barracuda Raider!!
He wanted to know how Red Barracuda Star Pirates dealt with such wounded soldiers.
According to common sense, a well-organized and complete organization that had the potential to even have its own technology would definitely formulate detailed battlefield operating procedures. They would definitely take into account how to deal with the wounded pirates.
This handling method was of particular concern to Fang Linyan, because he felt that it was an opportunity.
Then, Fang Linyan’s eyes suddenly lit up.
It turned out that after the Red Barracuda Raider got dragged to the safe zone, they summoned a drone.
This drone seemed to be the size of a washbasin, but its carrying capacity was quite powerful. It directly carried the seriously injured Red Barracuda Raider and flew toward the distance. It should be bringing the raider back into their mothership.
Vulture and Goat also saw this scene. Vulture immediately said excitedly,
“Shall we…”
As he spoke, he waved his hand down excitedly.
Fang Linyan shook his head slightly and said calmly,
“Don’t worry, we should only have one chance. Once we take action, there is a high chance that the enemy will find out.”
“Then of course this opportunity must be used wisely!!”
…
Time passed quickly. Even with the cover of [Mechanical Gyrfalcon], probably because Bas Carr kept calling for reinforcements, enemies kept coming.
Fang Linyan and his team were also hiding from constant danger.
There was 1 time they almost got discovered while hiding in the cabin. In the end, they had no choice but to sacrifice the [Mechanical Dire Wolf] to draw away the enemy’s attention.
After that, Vulture used a consumable item called “Mist of Trickery”.
They immediately entered a state of disguise similar to that of a chameleon.
They also destroyed the lights in the cabin. As long as the enemy did not take a closer look within 3 meters, they would never be able to detect them.
Then, the battle had also entered a white-hot state.
Captain Latvis himself piloted a combat robot into battle, and 3 contractors also died in the battle.
In contrast, the casualties among the star pirates were equally tragic. One Red Barracuda Star Pirate Tyrant died on the spot and 20 raiders died.
The star pirates didn’t expect such tenacious resistance from Latvis and the others.
Bas Carr roared angrily and rushed forward crazily. This time he finally cleared away all the defense system of Latvis.
Even the combat robot piloted by Latvis was completely destroyed.
Of course, Bas Carr also paid a heavy price. One of his arms was broken off, and his abdomen was penetrated with a huge wound the size of a bowl. A large amount of blood mixed with nutrient solution flowed out.
Through the wound, the biochemical organs inside could even be seen squirming violently!
When the contractors witnessed this scene, they rushed forward frantically to kill Bas Carr, but they failed.
Because Bas Carr actually detonated himself!!
At least 4 contractors died on the spot. Giannis did something very unethical at this time. He actually hid behind Crespo.
The power of self-destruction should have been shared between him and Crespo, but now it was Crespo alone.
At this moment, Crespo was immediately flustered. He was forced to use a bottle of comprehensive recovery potion.
After the explosion, Crespo immediately walked up angrily and pushed Giannis hard.
Not willing to be outdone, Giannis actually sneered and walked forward. He was mentioning the boss as he said.
This time, the boss of Team Blood took the other half of the team to another world.
Because Crespo’s strength had greatly expanded. In order to suppress Crespo, the boss specifically supported Giannis.
However, Team Blood’s boss didn’t know that Giannis was equally ambitious and had no intention of suppressing Crespo! Instead, he wanted to replace Crespo, so the conflict between them intensified.
If the Team Blood’s boss was here, he would definitely regret choosing Giannis to do this.
Fang Linyan saw all this but didn’t say much. Instead, he focused on another matter.
