Pan Yifu launched more than just one flaming arrow; he fired over ten, so successfully hitting, so failing.
The continuous explosions severely disrupted the morale of the Star Thieves.
Logically speaking, since he was focusing on flaming arrows, the power of the fire rain would diminish a bit.
However, that wasn’t the case; the power of the fire rain didn’t decrease; instead, its range expanded.
Pan Yifu, as the caster of the fire rain, was very sensitive to these changes.
With a slight perception, he discovered that there was another fire attribute warrior on the field, fanning the flas of the fire rain.
Pan Yifu was sowhat surprised, but he didn’t continue to sense it, as he had to avoid locks and continue casting flaming arrows.
In battle, you really can’t be distracted, or you’ll end up dead!
Yet, he couldn’t help but secretly marvel, you really can’t underestimate the potential of the Imperial!
A B-level fire attribute warrior, able to bypass my perception and even assist in powering the fire rain!
As the fire rain intensified, a figure flew over from a distance, letting out a cold snort.
"A dignified A-level warrior, bullying a bunch of rookies?"
A nearby Star Thief exclaid with surprise, "It’s the Third Leader, the Third Leader!"
As he spoke, the Third Leader unleashed a water tornado, heading straight for Pan Yifu’s location.
"An A-level water attribute?" Pan Yifu scoffed disdainfully, flicking three flaming arrows at him.
Water attributes can counter fire attributes, that’s true, but... it all cos down to cultivation level!
Pan Yifu had considerable confidence in his cultivation level, and running just because he saw an A-level water attribute warrior would be too shaful!
Whether he could win or not, escaping without a fight wasn’t his style; he had to try first to find out.
Upon seeing this, the Third Leader flew into a rage, "You dare underestimate so?"
He knew the "fire rain" was caused by this person. You’re casting a large-scale technique while attacking ?
Clearly, my attribute counters yours, right? Enraged, the Third Leader intensified the water tornado.
The water tornado extinguished the three flaming arrows, and at the sa ti, a sizzling sound rose, creating a large area of white water mist.
The water mist blocked everyone’s view, but the remaining water tornado relentlessly surged toward Pan Yifu.
Pan Yifu didn’t know that the opponent attacked with resentnt. Seeing the situation, his heart sank: I’m finished, I’m truly countered.
If it were just a contest of cultivation, he wouldn’t fear the opponent at all, but with the attribute advantage, he could only flee.
It’s not about fearing death, but surviving ans the opponent might hold back against the others on the spaceship.
Moreover, the opponent was just the Third Leader, already an A-level warrior, so among the Star Thieves, there must be at least two more A-levels, right?
Pan Yifu flickered aside, dodging the water tornado, then used a finger technique again, "Continuous Fireball!"
A series of fireballs crashed towards the opponent, seeming sowhat unwilling.
But true fire attribute warriors know, this is a code for retreat: this is the last hit, be prepared to leave!
Pan Yifu made this signal for that B-level fire attribute warrior — I’m leaving, don’t say I didn’t inform you!
As for the other warriors at the base, surely they could read his intentions as well.
The Third Leader sidestepped the continuous fireballs and then raised his hand for a finger technique, "Rainfall!"
Seeing tiny rains falling, he snorted, "Old Thirteen, deal with this fire, I’ll go after that guy!"
He definitely couldn’t let the fire attribute A-level go.
Whether he could catch up was one thing, but as a water attribute warrior, not daring to pursue a fire attribute would be laughable.
"Frost~" A lazy female voice sounded, precisely the one who spoke earlier, the Thirteenth Leader.
A large area of cold air fell from the sky; she turned out to be a B-level ice attribute, no wonder she dared to handle putting out the fire.
Just as the flas were about to be extinguished, a gunshot rang out, that lazy voice gave a shout of surprise, then fell silent.
The gunshots on the scene were too intense for anyone to notice it,
Let alone think that the dignified Thirteenth Leader, B-level ice attribute warrior, was sniped in the head from afar.
However, the Thirteenth Leader had an assistant by her side, an earth attribute C-level warrior, Xiaobai Lian.
Xiaobai Lian cried out, "Thirteenth Leader... Thirteenth Leader is gone!"
This shout went directly out through the intercom, and all the Star Thieves were in an uproar, "Thirteenth Leader... is gone?"
B-level warriors aren’t so easy to kill. In fact, before Qu Jianlei sniped the Thirteenth Leader, he first released the Wind Binding Technique.
The Wind Binding Technique caused the Thirteenth Leader’s body to pause a bit, though it was very limited, and Xiaobai Lian didn’t notice it.
In a gorge or base, this fluctuation might not escape detection, but the Zarif Planet was only in an exploratory stage.
Now the planet was secretly overtaken by Star Thieves, who were severely lacking in resources and talent, with scarce equipnt for testing and perceiving energy.
At this mont, the person on the control tower spoke again, "Heavy weapons... destroy the spaceship!"
Qu Jianlei heard this and couldn’t bear it any longer, "Earth Spike Group!"
The Earth Spike Swarm is an enlarged version of the Earth Spike. With his A-level cultivation level, he unleashed it, directly flipping over the entire tower platform.
The man who had been issuing orders was pierced through the lower body by a thick, long earth spike, screaming in agony, "Aaargh~!"
"Still a miss," Qu Jianlei’s mouth twitched; he had intended for the earth spike to pierce through the man’s neck.
However, this guy, who seed like a C-level warrior, had reaction capabilities almost on par with a B-level warrior.
He struggled to adjust his posture, but by a twist of fate, his sensitive area ended up right against the thick, long earth spike.
The scream was truly earth-shattering; the kind of pain that would make an ordinary person with hemorrhoids feel like they were dying.
Amidst his screams, many were in panic, yet so were executing the plan as intended, "Deploy the chas!"
The dock has plenty of heavy weaponry, but the final operation still hinges on the strategy of the combat units.
The Star Thieves, descendants of ancient pirates, excel at close-quarters and boarding battles.
Their targets were primarily rchant ships, hence this tactic was well preserved.
Now that the tower’s command is down, we must proceed according to the pre-arranged plan.
Close combat to take down opponents can help preserve the integrity of the goods and ships to the fullest extent.
As for the crew and passengers... that’s contingent upon the situation.
The opponent’s only A-level warrior has fled, and the third-in-command went after him, so the situation shouldn’t reverse.
The commanding officer is not dead yet, but looks impossible to save.
The Star Thieves’ chas number in the hundreds, far more than the few on the ship, instantly forming a siege.
The focus of the Star Thieves’ firepower shifted from attacking the ship to surrounding them, preventing any escape.
anwhile, soone shouted loudly, "Be cautious, they still have several B-level warriors, the Earth Attribute one is the most powerful."
Qu Jianlei perceived the surroundings and found more Star Thieves constantly arriving just outside the dock.
Though he has A-level combat power, it’s impossible to kill them all in a short ti, especially when they possess heavy firepower.
The crucial point is, he doesn’t know how many A-levels they have, or if there are even higher-level presences.
Since Pan Yifu, an A-level, has already fled, there’s no need for him to keep fighting.
Then he began searching for Youyou, only to find her Space cha being besieged by three chas.
Strictly speaking, she and another assault-type cha were relying on each other, back to back, facing off against five chas.
The assault-type cha faced two chas, and Youyou faced three.
Probably because she detonated the cargo earlier, drawing the attention of the Star Thieves, so the enmity was significant.
Nearly all chas have thinner armor on the back; their back-to-back fighting was a necessary choice.
Yet, this is quite frustrating, as Youyou’s Space cha is primarily designed for agility.
Fighting in this manner essentially forfeits her advantages, exaggerating the vulnerabilities of thin armor and poor endurance.
Qu Jianlei hid in a corner and contacted Youyou via headset, "Ti to break out, prepare to abandon the cha once I act..."
Youyou hesitated montarily before responding, "But behind ... there are comrades."
Qu Jianlei stated without hesitation, "I’ll take care of those three chas, you seize the mont to escape..."
"He will have enough ti to find a new partner."
Youyou felt tempted but looked around, reluctantly saying, "There are too many Star Thief chas, he won’t have ti to team up."
Then she sighed, "I checked, and it’s hard for to escape safely... you break out first, rember to protect yourself!"
Qu Jianlei felt a twinge of reluctance; shouldn’t every partner of mine have a different outco?
He also understood that escaping first was the optimal choice, as taking Youyou along would increase difficulty and risk.
Yet, these are comrades in arms; is it really okay to just abandon them like this?
He hesitated for a re mont, then the next second, a burst of Gauss Machine Gun bullets hit him heavily.
Qu Jianlei paid great attention to conceal himself, simultaneously maintaining two layers of protection.
One layer was internal Golden Armor, and outside was a layer of Rock Armor, but this barrage was from a Vehicle-Mounted Machine Gun’s heavy firepower.
He wasn’t injured, but felt like being punched heavily several tis, which was very uncomfortable!
He could hesitate no longer! He decisively made his move, darting outward.
Simultaneously, he ford a finger technique, and three more earth spikes erged, targeting the three chas engaging Youyou.
Then he bid farewell through the headset, "Take care, I’m leaving first... see if you can follow!"
Once he moved, he darted left and right like a phantom, and in a blink, dashed into the dock’s buildings.
He first killed the three people in the room, then unleashed another Earth Spike Swarm against the cha group encircling the Star Thieves.
The power of the earth spikes against the cha was rather limited, but they could definitely knock the chas over a few tis.
Then he shouted loudly, "Prepare to face the wrath of the military!"
