The man was, fortunately, utterly devoted to her. If he died, he would certainly leave all his assets to her, and even this Jun Jun base would be hers.
Bai Ruo became happier the more she thought about it. *Die quickly, die quickly.*
The two of them quickly traversed the rotting land and arrived at the combat zone.
A year ago, Guang Ming Base had allocated them some assault cannons, firearms, and other equipment. It should be more than enough to deal with mutated beasts.
Cao Jun commanded, "Activate the assault cannons."
"Yes!"
A group of six people set up their assault cannons and aimed at the giant bat overhead.
With a loud "bang," a rocket-like flame shot into the sky. The white bat was hit directly by the incoming shell.
A large hole appeared in its abdomen, and toxic fluid poured down.
Its expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of pain.
The bat paused for a moment before continuing to fly around the area.
Much of the toxic fluid dripped onto the rooftops, melting them. People began to get injured.
The bat's mind held only one mission: find Xu Qian and Xiang Jin Tian, and kill them!
Its two eyeballs were its energy cores. If they were shattered, it could only survive by relying on its spectral form.
And the spectral form felt no pain; it contained only toxic fluid!
Therefore, attacking it was completely useless!
The two of them, having finished their meal, naturally heard the commotion. Xu Qian pulled down the curtains and looked into the distance.
She saw that the bat had a large hole in its chest, spewing poison downwards.
Xu Qian's pupils contracted. She had only come here to hide, not to destroy the base!
This situation had gone against her original intention.
"Jin Tian..."
"Alright."
Xu Qian turned back to meet his deep black eyes. Before she could say what she wanted to do, he already knew.
"Let's go."
The girl's eyes flickered, and a hint of moisture crossed her gaze.
"Mm."
They changed into the jeep. Xiang Jin Tian opened all four windows and stepped on the accelerator, driving away.
As expected, it wasn't long before the white bat began chasing the jeep.
Cao Jun, observing from the high platform, was in a state of distress. Just as he was wondering what to do, the white bat actually flew off chasing a jeep.
Cao Jun was not an ungrateful person. By luring the bat out of the base, they had resolved the base's crisis. But what about themselves?
He pondered for a moment and then ordered, "Elite troops, grab your weapons and follow me out of the city!"
"Yes!"
A convoy of two vehicles followed the bat, heading straight for it.
Xiang Jin Tian continued to floor the accelerator, swerving to avoid the toxic liquid.
There was no other option now; they could only try to outlast it.
If all else failed, they could hide in the space for a while, as Xu Qian had suggested.
Suddenly, there was a loud "bang."
The bat's tail was hit by another shot, and toxic fluid poured down.
The bat showed no reaction and continued its pursuit.
Its flying altitude had significantly decreased, almost as high as the two vehicles.
Hearing the sound, Xu Qian immediately sat up and looked back. She saw two military jeeps following behind them.
People from Jun Jun Base!
Xu Qian frowned and said, "Jin Tian, their base is truly sincere."
Xiang Jin Tian chuckled and shook his head. "Yes, they're barely managing to protect themselves, yet they're still coming to help us."
Xu Qian sighed. Jun Jun Base had been implicated by them, and she hadn't expected them to come to their aid instead.
[System, are there any other ways to deal with this level three mutated beast?]
[Ding, it is a level three mutated beast researched by X Group. You can only deal with it if you upgrade to level four.]
Xu Qian couldn't help but roll her eyes. If she could upgrade to level four right now, why would she be asking the system?
[System, think of a way.]
This couldn't go on forever.
