The heavily damaged Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insect emitted a series of special mournful insect screams.
At this mont, swarms of Red Cicada Flying Insects crazily rushed forward, all blocked by the AT Stance Barrier.
However, under the impact, the entire AT Stance Barrier also kept shaking.
Su Mo was enduring a strong ntal assault, and he too beca frantic now, as expected of a Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insect, which had an incredibly tenacious life force.
Even so, a series of attacks did not take its life imdiately.
Normally this would not matter much, but the key point was that the other two Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insects were also on a killing spree toward him. Moreover, this was not even the worst part, it seed like he stood out too much.
The Fake Creator "Swallower" gave a very bad reminder.
"Be careful, to your right, a Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insect has changed its direction of attack and is heading towards you," it said.
"Damn it,"
Su Mo cursed under his breath.
Just then, Su Mo violently yanked, turning the Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insect in his hand.
Not far away, two crimson beams blasted over.
Boom~
The two beams directly struck the heavily damaged Red Cicada Flying Insect.
Instantly, the body of the Red Cicada Flying Insect was blasted with two shockingly large cavities.
A trace of cold light flashed in Su Mo’s eyes, and he decisively took the opportunity to draw his Super Alloy Blade and stabbed it into its heart.
The Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insect in front of him emitted its final dying scream as its biological reaction quickly dissipated.
Just then, the other two Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insects, like crazed beasts, pounced and collided with the Gluttonous cha’s AT Stance.
Su Mo felt as if his head had been viciously struck twice.
He clenched his teeth and swung his Super Alloy Blade in a sweeping motion, slashing them away.
Imdiately thereafter, Su Mo manipulated the Gluttonous cha to sharply dodge to the side, and a very thick crimson beam blasted past nearby, narrowly missing him.
Su Mo held his breath, his mind exceptionally calm, and quickly scanned the surroundings to assess his situation.
Without a word, he controlled the Gluttonous cha to dart around like a streak of light, still within the insect swarm. However, by moving, the pressure was much less, providing more room to maneuver and avoiding being crushed to death.
Within the Black Brilliance, an operator excitedly remarked,
"The biological reaction of NO.4 Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insect has plumted, confirming the target is dead! Additionally, three other Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insects are spotted surrounding Lord Su Mo."
Li Ruiqi composed himself and said, "Hmm, I see."
In the control room, Augustus and the others showed a hint of joy; they hadn’t expected Su Mo to deliver such a surprise right at the start of the battle.
The first Lord Level insect had fallen.
"How are the others doing?"
Li Ruiqi imdiately asked.
"Shiris is under attack by two Lord Level Red Cicada Flying Insects, and the situation looks very grim. Also, Rose and others are facing off against Lord Level insects, but it’s unlikely they will achieve a quick victory like Su Mo," said Putmi with a grave expression.
"Is there any sign of a decrease in the number of the insect swarm?"
Li Ruiqi then asked.
"No, the size of the insect swarm remains vast, and their rear nests continue to recruit non-stop, making it difficult to break the deadlock anyti soon," replied Putmi, shaking his head.
"Once the bow is drawn, there is no turning back; order everyone to increase their attack intensity,"
Li Ruiqi continued to issue orders, his heart also bleeding.
Since the battle began, more than one hundred chas had been lost.
Although the number of dead insects was several hundred tis—even more—than the losses on their side, Li Ruiqi still couldn’t feel happy, knowing that those who had died were all elites.
Training a qualified NCO required a great deal of effort and money.
.....
In the starry sky, Su Mo drove the Gluttonous cha wildly through a heap of monsters, with crimson beams relentlessly pursuing him from behind.
However, Su Mo deftly dodged them, relying on the advice of the Fake Creator·Swallower.
Su Mo asked in a low voice, "It’s not a solution to be hunted down like this forever. Which one should we kill first? The Lord Level one, or the other two?"
"Just stall for now, you’ve already killed one. If you forcefully kill another, not only will it consu a lot of energy, but the insect swarm might go berserk. The situation could get even worse then. Your commander assigned you as the vanguard to attract firepower, not to get killed futilely," the Fake Creator·Swallower reminded in a stern voice.
After so thought, Su Mo found that the Fake Creator·Swallower did make so sense.
"Alright."
He could only keep his cool and continue to hold out in combat.
Seconds ticked by, and the entire starry sky resembled a man-devouring at grinder, harvesting lives from both sides.
However, the standoff eventually took a turn.
Beilo’s area of responsibility on the right flank of the main battlefield was breached, and masses of insects surged through it, swarming toward the fleet of Green Gore ships.
In desperation, Beilo had no choice but to order the interstellar fighters to kill the insects at all costs.
One could see squadrons of interstellar fighters flying past at high speeds, shooting frantically at the insects and turning many Red Cicada Flying Insects into sieves with dense barrages of bullets.
Following this, several Red Cicada Flying Insects launched suicide attacks on the interstellar fighters, ramming into them directly.
So fighters that couldn’t dodge in ti were struck, either exploding or losing control, crashing around like headless flies.
The casualty rate skyrocketed at once.
In the command room of Black Brilliance, Putmi’s expression changed slightly as he reported, "There’s trouble with Beilo’s defense line."
"Don’t panic. Since Beilo and his team haven’t asked for reinforcent, we need to trust them and guard our own area," Li Ruiqi replied with furrowed brows, not truly because he believed in Beilo but because he simply had no forces to spare.
With every passing second, an icon of a cha combatant would dim.
The casualty rate surged!
"Understood!"
Although Putmi was very worried, he refrained from asking further.
At that mont, Li Ruiqi suddenly asked, "How is the attack going for the Second Legion and the Third Legion?"
"According to the latest data, they are making very smooth progress. They’ve gained a significant advantage after colliding with the insect swarm and are swiftly defeating the enemy, though the insect swarm is resisting fiercely. It’s unlikely that the enemy will be vanquished in a short ti."
Putmi said in a sowhat helpless tone at the end.
"How’s the progress on Beilo’s side?"
Li Ruiqi promptly followed up.
"It’s not going as well as ours."
"How is Wang Hai doing?"
Li Ruiqi asked imdiately afterward.
"We’ve been monitoring his synchronization rate constantly. It’s still relatively stable, staying around sixty-eight percent. Additionally, the combat power of the Dark Curse Apostle cha is very strong. Wang Hai currently has the upper hand against two standard Type IV Red Cicada Flying Insects. Given so ti, he might be able to eliminate his targets."
Putmi reported to Li Ruiqi.
"How about Su Mo?"
Li Ruiqi asked right after.
"Su Mo’s situation seems not too bad at the mont. The Gluttonous cha is hardly damaged, and its AT Stance Barrier remains robust. He is in the best shape of all the fourth-generation chas in combat currently, but his situation isn’t particularly good either. He is entangled by one Type IV Lord Level and two standard Type IV Red Cicada Flying Insects, and he simply can’t spare a hand. Actually, I feel that if soone could assist in restraining them for Su Mo, with his capabilities, he would definitely resolve those damn insects quickly," Putmi also had high hopes for Su Mo.
"I’m well aware of that, but we’ve already played all our cards; we simply don’t have any to spare. Notify the Second Army Commander, Sebastian, and the Third Army Commander, Bricas, to speed up their actions. Every minute they save, our companions can spare so sacrifices," Li Ruiqi said gravely.
