Rebirth of a Portable Space: Transforming My Hometown

Chapter 288 The First Battle on the Real Battlefield

"Brothers, charge! For our homeland!"

"For home!"

...With each shout of commands, every soldier seemed to be injected with adrenaline, and their attack became even more fierce.

The flying Zerg fell like dumplings being dropped into a pot, dying layer upon layer.

"The Zerg have sent even more Zerg to attack today," Bethelven said softly, frowning as he looked at the swarming mass.

It felt as if he was talking to the other marshals, or perhaps to himself, his tone filled with melancholy.

Yuan Liu was much more optimistic than Billy Wen; he laughed heartily.

"What's there to be afraid of! Let those damned Zerg come, why should we be afraid of them? We'll kill one if they come, and kill two if they come!"

One day we will wipe out those disgusting Zerg and restore humanity to its former glory.

Yuan Liu might have felt lost about the future like Bethelvin in the past, but now he has met his apprentice, Cui Yu'an.

He firmly believed that his apprentice was an even greater genius than that one, and would once again lead humanity to glory.

Thinking of Yuan Liu, he looked towards the position where Cui Yu'an was piloting the mecha in battle.

They saw Cui Yu'an wielding laser-bladed twin blades, cutting through the battlefield and felling hordes of Zerg wherever he went.

The mech he piloted was covered in the green blood of the Zerg.

The surrounding insectoids were so terrified by this god of death that a vacuum appeared around Cui Yu'an after a long while.

For a moment, no Zerg dared to approach; anyone other than Yuan Liu who saw it would be utterly astonished.

They had been fighting the Zerg for years and knew their system inside and out.

They are a social system composed of mother insects and daughter insects, with daughter insects unconditionally obeying any command from the mother insect.

Once the mother insect issues the command, the daughter insects will fearlessly carry out the tasks assigned by the mother insect.

It's easy to imagine how powerful Cui Yu'an was; he actually instilled fear in those swarms of insects.

"Squeak~!!"

It was clear that this wasn't just something Yuan Liu noticed; the mother insects who were connected to him through a spiritual connection also took notice.

The mother insect roared angrily, as if her authority had been challenged.

With the mother insect's roar, the offspring, initially subservient to Cui Yu'an but driven by their innate obedience, charged towards him with bloodshot eyes.

Meanwhile, Zerg from other areas were also summoned by the Queen and attacked Cui Yu'an.

"There?" Cui Yu'an wasn't frightened by the swarming insects; instead, he calmly determined the location from which the order was to be issued.

He leaped and fired, carving a bloody path through the swarm of insects, then charged tirelessly towards the mother insect's location.

"Cut!"

The mother insect made a clicking sound, as if her life was about to be threatened.

As the sound spread, the insects, which had been fighting the other soldiers, abandoned their fight and rushed towards Cui Yu'an, who was heading towards the mother insect.

"Damn it! That brat has some nerve!"

Yuan Liu, who had been watching Cui Yu'an closely, was the first to discover what Cui Yu'an was planning and the first to understand the Zerg's movements.

The Yin-Yang was terrified by what Cui Yu'an had done. Yuan Liu felt that if he were still with Cui Yu'an, he would feel like he was dying young from a heart attack.

But what could he do? He had begged this disciple to stay away from the battlefield. Yuan Liu knew this might still fool the other children.

It's hard to fool his precious apprentice, otherwise how could he have forgotten all the three rules they agreed on before setting off, right on his first day on the battlefield?

This brat didn't just forget the three rules; he clearly didn't take them to heart! What to do? I'm the one who raised him, so I have to spoil him.

Yuan Liu was still angry with Cui Yu'an, angry that he had dared to provoke the Mother Insect without knowing his place. He silently piloted the mecha anxiously towards Cui Yu'an's direction.

Hoping for timely rescue of Cui Yu'an

Having fought on the battlefield for so many years, Yuan Liu knew very well that the difficulty for Cui Yu'an to kill the queen insect alone was no less than that of a single person taking on an entire queen insect nest.

He and his troops had to go through countless near-death experiences to destroy even an S-class queen hive.

Let alone a single person! Even if this queen insect, judging from its level, should be a level 5 queen insect, which is equivalent to taking on a level C queen insect nest all by himself, that is something he can't even imagine!

As Yuan Liu had predicted, Cui Yu'an was stopped by countless elite offspring before he could even get close to the mother insect.

Dragged into a new encirclement, when Yuan Liu charged into it, Cui Yu'an was surrounded by layers upon layers of elite Zerg corpses.

At the same time, Cui Yu'an's mecha also started to stagnate, its movements becoming less fluid than before.

Cui Yu'an's mecha was, after all, a commercial mecha, even though a private mecha customization studio had helped him with modifications.

Its strength still can't compare to military mechs. It's quite obvious from Yuan Liu's observation that his apprentice's mech is already experiencing problems due to today's increased strength.

Now some joints are making a "sizzling" sound.

"Master! What brings you here?!" Although the machine Cui Yu'an was piloting had malfunctioned, he himself was fine.

From his disciple's tone, Yuan Liu could even sense his excitement. He couldn't help but sigh, some people are simply born for the battlefield.

The battle has been going on for almost three hours, and this guy doesn't seem tired at all; in fact, he seems a bit excited. Who can you complain to about that?

"You brat! If I hadn't come, I felt you were going to die here! Come with me!" After saying that, Yuan Liu tore open a corner of the encirclement of the group of elite-level insects, gesturing for Cui Yu'an to follow.

"Hehe~" Cui Yu'an didn't refute his cheap master's words, although he felt he could still fight the Zerg for 300 rounds.

However, he knew his body could still hold on, but his mecha had already reached a critical point of collapse. If he continued fighting, even if he didn't die here, he would still be at risk.

He's about to reveal some of his trump cards, and these trump cards are not easy to explain.

Cui Yu'an made up his mind that once they returned to the rest area, he would do anything to trick his cheap master into giving him a military mecha.

He really didn't want to be fighting like this, perfectly fine himself, only to have his mech tell him it was failing.

He'll be so tired!

"The future is terrifying!"

When Yuan Liu brought Cui Yu'an back to the command area, it also attracted the attention of some Grand Marshals. Mainly because Yuan Liu's sudden appearance made it hard for them to ignore him.

Then they discovered Cui Yu'an, who had initiated the Yuanliu operation, and also noticed the level of Zerg that Cui Yu'an was facing.

They were surprised and incredibly curious, while also wondering what would happen if their own soldiers did such a dangerous thing.

He wanted to see how they trained him when they got back, and he was also curious about who this overly young man in front of them was.

Yuan Liu valued him so much that he even personally went to rescue him.
