Chapter 763: Chapter 763
While everyone’s attention was drawn away, Lin Yushi suddenly leapt from behind a rock, firing over a dozen arrows off in succession. After firing, she instantly flashed back behind the rock.
The arrows quickly hit the monsters and the crowd behind that, followed by explosions of thunder and lightning. Lin Yushi had just used Thunderstorm Arrows; the explosion of lightning instantly electrocuted the Biochemical Men—who were only formidable because of their weapons.
Then, Demon Extermination Spirits of Tier 1 and even Tier 0 stood up. Though they weren’t particularly strong, the close-quarter assault was enough to disrupt the Biochemical Men.
"Great, counter attack, counter attack now," Seeing the chaos among the enemy ranks, the men in the back finally dared to push forward and launch a counter assault.
They weren’t ordinary people; they were either Superpower Men or Cyborgs. Although they weren’t strong enough to deal with Mechas and Warplanes, they had no problem dealing with Biochemical Men.
In the distance, various types of energy were unleashed, including fire, thunder, ice, and something akin to Sword Qi. The Biochemical Men had powerful weapons, but they themselves were vulnerable. After being bombarded continuously, they left a slew of corpses and hid behind cover. So began a standoff with constant skirmishing.
But this kind of skirmishing was a common occurrence. However, now their side had Demon Wolves and Demon Extermination Spirits, and there was a massive fireball hovering in the sky. Once that fireball descended, their enemies’ hiding spots would be obliterated. Googlᴇ search 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒·𝗇𝗲𝘁
What Du You did not expect was that before his fireball could be launched, a light ball from the distance suddenly hit it, ripping it apart. Instantly, a few small red Warplanes passed overhead.
They dropped energy balls one by one, devastating their fortifications. Screams filled the air; it seemed that they had lost more students. Each of these students were talented or powerful, and each student lost was an immense blow.
"Damn it. It’s the enemy’s Warplanes. How did they get here?" The commander roared.
"If they dare to come again, they’ll have to pay." Lin Yucha stared at the sky. As a Warplane attempted to turn back, an arrow pierced it mid-air, making it explode.
Though these Warplanes were troublesome, they weren’t high-tier. Their speed wasn’t a match for the Lin siblings. They had killed countless Magical Beasts faster than these Warplanes. So, the Warplanes were not much of a challenge.
"What model are your weapons? I’ve never seen them before!" The commander looked at them perplexedly.
He thought the bow in the Lin siblings’ hands that could automatically condense energy arrows was a technological invention.
"They’re custom-made, nothing special," said Du You as an afterthought. He regretted having people think his weapons were technological products. If he had known, would he have needed to purchase energy longbows?
He wasted money on a batch of weapons. The commander nodded thoughtfully, not asking further.
"What? Reinforcements have arrived, but they’ve been blocked." The commander suddenly received this communication and looked to the sky. Two distant dark spots in the sky stood out after the eruption of power and light.
Those spots in the sky were supposed to be their rescuing Warplanes, and their own Patrol Warship. But another Patrol Warship had appeared in the sky, of the same model as the one Du You had shot down. The two Warships encountered each other and fought.
"This is bad. How did they encounter each other? This is trouble."
"What’s wrong? Isn’t our Warship superior to theirs?" Du You asked.
"No, in relative terms, our Warship is stronger. But it is not significantly stronger. If it comes down to a fight to the death, the enemy’s Warship will be destroyed, but our Warship will also be severely damaged," the commander responded.
"Since we are stronger than them, what’s there to worry about?" Lin Yushi said unconcernedly.
Commander Ponti smiled bitterly, "The main issue is that we only have one Patrol Ship, while the enemy has three. We were not afraid because of our defensive system. But if our Patrol Ship is severely damaged, we’re going to be in trouble. All they have to do is send in the last undamaged Patrol Ship to coordinate with their ground forces, and we will be defeated."
"So, if we fail, the balance of this battlefield will be disrupted. This is contrary to my mission. We must find a way to alter this situation," Du You said.
"Du You, is there any way you could deal with the enemy Warships? We can’t let them keep this up," the commander asked.
"I can’t, it’s too far for me to lock onto it. Even if my attack reaches that distance, it wouldn’t cause much damage. My field is magic, not high tech weaponry," Du You replied.
"Is there any way to get them to drop to a certain altitude? If they drop to a height of 500 meters, I can effectively damage the enemy’s Warship," Du You quickly calculated and concluded.
"I’ll contact them," the commander quickly said, and then got in contact with the Warships.
"You must drop to an altitude of 500 meters immediately. We have a 4th-tier Superpower Man here, who can damage the enemy’s Warship at an altitude of 500 meters. Stop wasting time. What other choices do we have under such circumstances? Once your Warship is hit severely, we will not receive reinforcements for two days. If we spend two days at this rate, we already lose."
At last, after some tough bargaining, their Warship finally started to descend.
Don’t ask how Du You knew about it because the two dark spots in his line of sight became bigger and bigger.
The mechanical Warship that was initially suppressing the enemy started to descend. As it fell, the situation reversed, and now it was being suppressed by the enemy. But neither side could inflict significant damage on the other yet.
Our side’s blue laser cannon and the enemy’s red energy cannon launched ceaseless attacks at each other but were all blocked by their respective energy shields. The laser cannon made the enemy’s Defensive Barrier tremble every time it fired. Conversely, the red energy would stick to the Defence Barrier and erode the Warship’s energy reserves violently.
That was what Warship battles were like. Weaken each other’s defenses first, then the real battle starts. However, the two Warships were too evenly matched, and no easy victory lay in sight.
"Report their altitude," the commander ordered his lieutenant, who then quickly calculated their altitude.
On the ground, Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi were helping other students, fighting against the enemy’s reinforcements. The situation was precarious, with the enemy’s men growing more numerous. Du You, however, was staring at the sky with a grave expression.
