"Release the self-destructive insects!"
"Blast open the outer defenses!... Let the giant beast in!..." A strange spiritual fluctuation ca again, and the existence controlling the alien insects secretly issued a new command.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions rang out one after another in various places, causing collapses throughout the underground base. Fortunately, the internal tal pillars provided stability, and only parts of the area collapsed.
A series of extrely heavy footsteps echoed.
In Su Ziyu’s field of vision, a massive creature with thick armored shell like a mammoth suddenly charged out from the left passage. It stord right into the Empire Army’s defense line under dense bullet fire. With just a single charge, its terrifying power swept away a large number of soldiers in exoskeleton armors, and a giant hoof ca down, crushing a suspect officer into pulp on the spot.
"Infiltrator!"
"Track the broodmother’s location!..."
A rustling sound spread out, and in the darkness, so spider-like insects flashed by, swiftly crawling along the walls and spreading into the nurous passages.
At this mont.
No living person was around Su Ziyu.
He simply terminated his invisibility, moving to the corpse of the shriveled old man. This old man had his skull blown open in the initial explosion and was long dead.
"What is this?" Su Ziyu gently lifted a hand and telekinetically extracted a small tal chip from the old man’s brain matter.
——"Mind Suppressor [Damaged]: Used to suppress overly sensitive mind waves to avoid contact with external sources of pollution."
The battle continued.
Su Ziyu didn’t know which side to assist, so he decided not to help either side. He searched the shriveled old man’s corpse and quickly found so good items.
——"Nanoter Repair Liquid [Legendary Level]: Top technology of the Ancient Lost Empire. A repair potion crafted with cutting-edge nanotechnology. It can repair most bodily damage in a short ti, and if the corpse has just died and is intact, there is a certain probability of reviving the target."
What a valuable find!
Su Ziyu hadn’t expected to casually find a legendary-level item by chance.
"Can it revive?" Su Ziyu picked up the small injection device and looked at it. Inside was a silvery-white liquid with a tallic sheen.
He glanced down at the old man’s corpse and shook his head, "You’re really unlucky."
"I’ll gladly accept this then."
He continued to search the corpse.
This shriveled old man seed to hold a significant status, as Su Ziyu quickly retrieved another item from his pocket.
——"AI Intelligent Assistance Core (Implanted) [Legendary Level]: An advanced intelligent chip implanted in the brain, massively enhancing learning capabilities by directly connecting to brain nerves. It aids in learning, data analysis, information storage, and can perform basic data model calculations."
Another legendary-level item.
The technological level of this world far surpassed any plane Su Ziyu had experienced before. He casually searched a corpse and found two legendary items.
"Spiritual power isn’t their forte."
Su Ziyu accepted them unhesitatingly, thinking, "But these people’s equipnt is really top-notch!..."
Rumble.
Another explosion sounded from the depths of the underground base, indicating that the swarm had breached the base’s interior.
The situation inside was unknown.
Su Ziyu wasn’t in a hurry to enter. He found the square cabin flying device from earlier and, after cutting open the twisted door with the Yirushir Straight Sword, he reached in and pulled out several silvery-white boxes.
He rembered seeing the shriveled old man take quite a few items from here.
Clang.
Su Ziyu forcefully broke open the boxes. So contents were damaged, but many were well-preserved.
——"Nanoter Neural Injection Training Device (Swordsmanship): Rapidly acquire swordsmanship skills through advanced nanoneural injections. These nanoneurals enter specific brain areas, granting the user the corresponding skills in a short period."
——"Nanoter Neural Injection Training Device (Firearms): Rapidly acquire firearms skills through advanced nanoneural injections. These nanoneurals enter specific brain areas, granting the user the corresponding skills in a short period."
——"Super Alloy Bionic Legs."
——"T1 Gene Transformation Liquid [Legendary Level]: The Ancient Empire’s first genetic modification process for cultivating Space Marines. It significantly strengthens physical traits and healing abilities, expands certain brain areas, and is a prerequisite for subsequent implantation of corresponding bionic devices." [This item is no longer effective on the host!]
Another legendary-level item.
But unfortunately, it no longer benefited Su Ziyu.
The contents of the other tal boxes weren’t as remarkable. Su Ziyu only found a Ghost Energy Field Protection Belt; the rest were not valuable.
Tap.
A rush of footsteps suddenly ca from the entrance.
While happily searching corpses, Su Ziyu imdiately concealed his presence and quietly followed. The alien insects had long breached the base’s interior, but the newcors seed to be entering from outside.
"The alien insects have already broken in."
"Follow ."
A slightly hoarse male voice with a hint of tal echoed from the passage. Behind him was a group of people wearing various old exoskeleton power armors. They didn’t appear to be from the Empire, because their equipnt looked antiquated; so wore mismatched helts and exosuit colors, as if the gear was cobbled together.
The exoskeletons they wore were similar to those of the Wasteland Era, bulky, sluggish, and cumberso to move in.
"Are they the Rebel Army?" Su Ziyu speculated.
This group moving in now.
Upon entering, they began scavenging equipnt from the deceased Empire soldiers. So were still using the wasteland plane’s conventional firearms and quickly scavenged usable electromagnetic rifles from the fallen.
A few reached the hall where Su Ziyu was and started looking for usable flying devices.
anwhile, others advanced through the tunnels into the base’s interior, seemingly searching for sothing.
Su Ziyu had searched the hall earlier, so he followed behind them into the interior.
After passing through a dimly lit passage, the scene in front suddenly opened up wide.
Overhead was a massive light source.
Like an artificial sun, illuminating everything before him.
Su Ziyu stood at a height of over a hundred ters within the underground base. From his position, he could see extensive interconnected railway tracks, all damaged, with broken carriages scattering so dismbered limbs inside.
On the right was a vast plantation area, covered by transparent fiberglass, spanning over a dozen square kiloters. Inside were many plants, so familiar and others not. To the left was an expansive residential area resembling an underground city. Many buildings had collapsed, fires burned everywhere, and nimble figures fought among the rooftops. Unlike other Empire soldiers, they wielded light sabers.
"Bad news!"
"It’s the Holy Blood Rose!... Retreat!..." An exclamation ca from the Rebel Army.
The next second.
A blood-red tallic silhouette streaked across the sky, leaped several hundred ters, and landed on the steps ahead.
"So it’s you rats!..." A cold female voice resonated. In Su Ziyu’s view was a figure clad in full blood-red armor. Beneath a wing-like helt were blood-red eyes. Her armor seed form-fitting, standing just about two ters tall, entirely different from the bulky three- to four-ter-high exoskeleton-equipped Empire soldiers outside. The surface of the scarlet armor reflected a smooth tallic sheen, looking seamless without any sign of patchwork.
"It’s like comparing Iron Man to a hunk of iron!..."
"The armor she’s wearing seems like top-notch gear." Su Ziyu felt a strong impulse to strip her bare.
