Zhang Bin just stood there, his face filled with derision as he said contemptuously, "Jack, you fool. You think you can be so kind of king? That's just embarrassing."
Enraged to the point of madness, Jack accelerated, intending to crush Zhang Bin to death and then devour him.
Just as he was about to grab Zhang Bin's head, terrifying sounds suddenly erupted.
RAT-A-TAT-TAT-TAT!
WHIZ! WHIZ! WHIZ! WHIZ! WHIZ!
From the two fortresses beside Zhang Bin, tens of millions of blue and red flashes of light shot out. Countless bullets, like a curtain of light, sprayed toward Jack and the Genetically Enhanced Humans behind him.
All the Genetically Enhanced Humans were scared witless, their courage failing them as they dodged with utmost speed. The majority imdiately dropped to the ground, skimming along the floor to hide behind pieces of equipnt.
A few exceptionally powerful Genetically Enhanced Humans began to radiate a golden light as their bodies beca harder than steel. Clearly, they were the ones who possessed a Defensive Ability and had terrifying Defensive Power.
Jack, also enraged, retreated rapidly as a golden glow erupted from his body. He transford into a figure of solid gold, emitting an aura of eternal indestructibility.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
Although he was fast, the bullets were faster. They caught up to him in an instant, striking his body and producing a sound like hamring tal.
Nevertheless, Jack let out a pained grunt.
On closer inspection, one could see his armor was riddled with holes like a honeycomb. His skin was dotted with countless red marks, and so areas had even been torn open, bleeding.
These were tal bullets, but they were completely different from any produced by modern human firearms. They were extrely small, only about the size of a nail, but far sharper. The force they contained was also terrifying to the extre, enough to breach Jack's defense.
It had to be known that Jack was an SSS-level Genetically Enhanced Human who possessed many miraculous Special Abilities. He had just activated his Defensive Ability, an SSS-level power that was incredibly formidable. Any bullet from a modern human firearm would only tickle him, causing no harm whatsoever. When bullets hit him, they would simply shatter and fall away. In other words, his body was much harder than the bullets.
But the bullets fired from the fortresses were so formidable they could injure even Jack. That ant they could also harm a Nascent Soul Stage Master.
This was an utterly terrifying prospect.
An underground base that had existed for billions of years contained such advanced technological weapons. Just how advanced was the technology of this place? It might not be far behind the technology of Xuanwu Star.
"Aaaahhh!"
So Genetically Enhanced Humans failed to dodge in ti and were shredded into dust by the barrage, turning into a mist of blood. Especially those who activated their Defensive Abilities to resist; almost all of them were annihilated.
Just like that, another twenty or so Genetically Enhanced Humans were killed. Combined with the ten or so from before, a total of more than thirty had been slaughtered.
That was the equivalent of over thirty Golden Core Realm Cultivators. Such a combat achievent was simply out of this world.
"Hahaha… You bunch of idiots! Co on, try and kill !" Zhang Bin burst into ecstatic laughter, feeling an extraordinary sense of satisfaction. Killing so many Genetically Enhanced Humans, who were more terrifying than demons, was incredibly satisfying.
Jack ducked behind a large piece of equipnt. "I will kill you!" he shouted, gritting his teeth.
The rest of the Genetically Enhanced Humans were also seething with rage. This was especially true for the twins, Ava and Sandra. They were so furious they howled, and the murderous, deadly aura bursting from their bodies was frighteningly tangible.
"Destroy those two fortresses!" Jack roared.
They all retrieved thermal weapons from their Space Rings and began firing frantically at the two fortresses.
What shocked Zhang Bin was that their thermal weapons were the sa as those from this base, firing bullets that were incredibly sharp and terrifying. As the bullets struck the fortresses, cracks gradually began to appear. If Zhang Bin hadn't hidden behind a fortress just now, he would have been reduced to dust.
Clearly, the Aricans had already researched this underground base to a profound level; they had mastered the base's terrifying weapons. It was even possible that Arica could now manufacture such weapons.
But for the Aricans to equip Genetically Enhanced Humans with such advanced weapons was no different from suicide.
"Master, go now! The fortresses can only hold out for two more minutes," Tutu's voice resounded in Zhang Bin's mind.
Although the technology of this underground base was advanced, it was still slightly inferior to that of Xuanwu Star. This was why Tutu was able to successfully infiltrate it. Tutu now had a basic grasp of the base's peripheral defense system and could use it against these Genetically Enhanced Humans.
Unfortunately, because the base was so ancient, many of the defensive weapons had malfunctioned. Not many were still usable. Therefore, relying on the peripheral defense system and its weapons to exterminate these Genetically Enhanced Humans would be extrely difficult. If he made one wrong move, they would catch him, and he would die without a grave.
WHOOSH!
Without any hesitation, Zhang Bin shot off in the direction Tutu indicated. He flew through the air, as fast as a teor. At the sa ti, he communicated with Tutu in his mind, "Tutu, have you found any information about this base?"
"Master, I've gathered so fragnted data from so of the AI cores, and the decryption is complete. This base wasn't built by Extraterrestrials, but by a prehistoric civilization…" Tutu said, her voice tinged with regret.
It turned out that 2.3 billion years ago, a very powerful intelligent species had evolved on Earth. They were no different from modern humans and had created the brilliant Xingyue civilization.
The Xingyue civilization was a technological one, and they had been rapidly advancing their science. In 60,000 years, they pushed their technology to a highly advanced level. They built cosmic spaceships to explore the Solar System, hoping to find a second Earth in the vast expanse of space.
However, human lifespans could not support the lengthy ti required to explore the universe. Therefore, to continue their exploration, besides significantly increasing the speed of their cosmic spaceships, they also had to find ways to extend human life and make people stronger.
They began to frantically research ways to make humans more powerful and to extend their lifespans. And so, the Genetically Enhanced Human was gradually developed.
After that, the AI cores had no further records. It was as if the Xingyue people had suddenly disappeared or gone extinct.
Zhang Bin's hair stood on end. Could it be that the Xingyue people went extinct because they developed Genetically Enhanced Humans? Did a terrifying crisis erupt that they couldn't survive?
