Director Wu did not react to the mantis monster's slashes. The strength of his baboon form far surpassed the monster's attack power. The six broadswords bounced off one after another, but they did not leave a single mark on the baboon's body.
Wu Chun-yi didn't even bother to look. He leapt backwards, his back slamming into the mantis monster's forelimbs.
Kacha, Kacha!
The mantis monster's two front limbs snapped in two as Wu Junyi slammed into it, sending it hurtling through the air.
Diamond Baboon Transformation. This was Wu Chun-yi's Discipline.
As the director of the National Eastern University, he was an eighth-rank Genetic Talent. He was one of the strongest in the entire school.
With one arm on the ground, the Diamond Baboon somersaulted into the air once more, hurtling towards the giant mantis.
The mantis monster was in a daze from the collision, but its reflexes were as fast as ever. It flapped its six wings and soared into the air.
Wu Junyi's heart sank. This monster that had appeared out of nowhere could fly!
He could feel his body going numb from the effects of the purplish-red gas emanating from the mantis monster.
It was clearly poisonous.
Even with his Discipline, he could only temporarily keep the poison at bay. However, it also consumed more of his Discipline.
The Diamond Baboon couldn't fly, but that didn't mean it didn't have a way to deal with the air.
Wu Chun-yi had immersed himself in his Discipline for many years. He was well aware of the strengths and weaknesses of his Discipline.
"Roar!" It roared to the heavens.
The Diamond Baboon's upper body arched upwards, then twisted around. A dark golden ball of light appeared in its right palm.
The next moment, the light ball shot out like a cannonball, chasing after the mantis monster in the air.
The mantis monster had been injured by Wu Chun-yi's attack.
Although it was still in the air, its agility had been greatly reduced.
This time, it couldn't dodge. The dark golden ball of light struck it head-on.
"Boom!" With a loud explosion, the huge body of the mantis monster was blown to pieces.
Wu Chun-yi did not dare to be negligent.
He immediately took large strides and chased after the teachers in front of him. God knew how many of these monsters there were. He had to follow and protect everyone.
Although he had killed the monster just now, his heart was still filled with haze. The forty people were divided into five groups.
His team had his protection, but what about the other four teams?
Perhaps only Ling Yun's group had her protection. As for the other three groups …
Tan Lingyun ran quickly in front, and at the same time, he sensed the changes of the creatures around him.
While she was running, it was impossible for her to stay still and perceive as far as she could.
A radius of 500 meters was not a problem.
As she ran forward, she suddenly sensed that an unknown creature filled with ferocity had appeared on her right. Moreover, it was moving at an incredible speed.
Just as she was about to react, the ferocious Qi suddenly and inexplicably disappeared, causing Tan Lingyun to be stunned.
However, she did not slow down and continued to run in the direction of the base.
A huge blue figure flashed in the air. The huge lightning spear carried a large purplish-red scorpion.
It was carrying a purplish-red scorpion. This scorpion was five meters long, but compared to the huge blue figure, it was like a child's play.
On the purplish-red body.
It gave off a burnt smell.
Its body was also emitting a purplish-red mist, but it was all dispersed by the lightning on the huge blue figure.
The lightning spear swung, throwing the purplish-red scorpion away. The blue figure suddenly rose into the air, and a blue beam of light swept out from its head.
It flashed in a fan shape not far away.
In the next instant, it seemed to transform into a blue bolt of lightning.
It fell into the distance.
Following behind Tan Lingyun, Lan Jue frowned slightly.
Lightning flashed in the depths of his eyes.
The blue figure in the air was naturally the one he had released with Thor's Oath just now, Thor.
Thor's AI also had an existence similar to his Soulcaller Crystal, and their minds were connected.
What Thor could see, he could see.
From a bird's eye view, the astonishing purplish-red color was truly frightening.
I must protect all the teachers as they retreat, Lan Jue ordered Thor to protect them.
Fortunately, they had only arrived today, so they did not go too deep into the rainforest. The group led by Tan Lingyun was already the furthest in.
The teachers were generally in good shape, and they were all retreating at full speed.
"We're here!"
The base was right in front of her. Tan Lingyun's heart relaxed a little. She sped up again, rushing back to the base. At this time, there were already many soldiers in uniform rushing into the rainforest. They were armed with laser guns, and they flew through the forest!
"Don't you have any powerful weapons?" Lan Jue asked one of the soldiers.
The soldier smiled bitterly. "No, the Alliance has very high environmental standards for Taihua, and the use of weapons of mass destruction is forbidden here. At the same time, machines are not allowed to enter the planet.
So we only have the simplest weapons.
Even mechas are not allowed to enter Taihua. "
"Then don't go and die," Lan Jue said. "These monsters that appeared out of nowhere are very strong. We need mechas to have a chance of taking them out.
Hurry up and let everyone retreat. "
The soldier's face was cold. "Protecting the people is the duty of the soldiers. There are still many tourists who have not returned, and we have to protect them." With that, he turned and ran into the forest.
After a few steps, he suddenly stopped and turned to Lan Jue with a smile. "Brother, thank you for the reminder.
I hope we'll meet again in the future. "
With that, he saluted Lan Jue, then turned and ran into the forest.
Looking at his back, Lan Jue's eyes narrowed. This was a soldier, a soldier of the Eastern Alliance.
Their hearts were filled with pride, and this pride was because of their duty to protect.
They had the right to be proud, and they deserved respect!
"Quick, get on the ship!"
A cold voice sounded, and then Lan Jue felt a strong force behind him. His body was lifted up, and the scenery around him flashed past.
In the next moment, he was next to the National Eastern University's ship.
"Hurry up, don't waste time. Get on the ship and wait."
Tan Lingyun's beautiful face was cold. After letting go of Lan Jue, he ran in another direction to help the other teachers.
"Miss Lan, hurry up."
Jin Yan's voice came from behind. Lan Jue turned and saw that Jin Yan had already boarded the ship and was waving at him.
Taking a deep breath, Lan Jue looked at the teachers who were running towards him from afar. Then, he turned and boarded the ship.
The atmosphere on the ship was a little frantic. Seven or eight teachers had already boarded the ship, and they were panting in shock as they talked about what had just happened.
Lan Jue sat down where she had come from, closed her eyes, and tried to sense where Thor was.
Speed was one of Thor's advantages. Thor was so powerful that he could even fly a certain distance in space.
Under its protection, most of the National Eastern University's teachers were safely on their way to the ship. In another twenty minutes, at most, all the teachers would arrive.
However, Lan Jue also saw more tourists through Thor's line of sight. Taihua was a tourist attraction for the Eastern Alliance, and the number of tourists and explorers from the Eastern Alliance was very high.
On the whole planet, there were dozens of such bases, and on their side, there were almost a hundred ships parked.
In other words, a rough estimate suggested that there were hundreds of thousands of tourists on Planet Taihua.
From Thor's high vantage point, he could see that the purplish black clouds covered almost the whole of his field of vision.
This was a disaster, a disaster for the Eastern Alliance, and a disaster for humanity.
"It's the duty of a soldier to protect the people!" The soldier's words flashed through Lan Jue's mind.
He didn't look very old, only in his early twenties. His smile was filled with determination, but it was also filled with calmness and pride.
Duty!
Taking a deep breath, Lan Jue's eyes narrowed, and he stood up, striding towards the ship's door.
When he arrived at the cabin door of the flying ship, he just happened to meet Wang Hongyuan, who was in a sorry state.
"Where are you going?" Wang Hongyuan looked at Lan Jue, a little confused.
"To help," Lan Jue said softly.
"Help?
How can you help? "Wang Hongyuan said disdainfully.
Lan Jue stepped aside, letting him in. "I'll help however I can.
There are still many, many people who haven't returned. "
After saying this, he quickly got off the ship and ran towards the rainforest in the distance.
Wang Hongyuan gazed at his back, and a strange feeling suddenly flashed in his heart. Was he crazy?
He actually went towards the rainforest?
What could he do to help?
He, who had already boarded the ship, stopped and stood at the door, watching Lan Jue gradually disappear into the distance.
Was this guy for real?
Not for show?
Wang Hongyuan's eyes gradually revealed a look of surprise.
His figure flashed, and he floated down the ship again, chasing after Lan Jue.
"What are you going to do?" A cold voice suddenly rang out not far from him.
Wang Hongyuan stopped in his tracks, his facial muscles twitching as he looked at Tan Lingyun. "That's enough!
This is not the time for nonsense.
Lan Jue just went to the rainforest, saying that she's going to help someone. I'm going to take a look. "
"Ah?" Tan Lingyun angrily stomped his feet. "Who can that trash help?
If he doesn't stay on the ship obediently, he'll just cause trouble for others.
Hurry up and get him back. "
"Okay," Wang Hongyuan replied, and quickened his pace, chasing after Lan Jue into the rainforest.
Tan Lingyun didn't have much time to think, and hurriedly ran in another direction.
The teachers from the National Eastern University came back one after another, including Director Wu Chun-yi.
"How is it, what's the situation with your group?" Wu Chun-yi asked anxiously as soon as he saw Tan Lingyun.
-----
I really like the word 'protect', and then 'duty'!
Just like for the past eleven years, as long as I'm writing a book, I'll constantly update it. This is also my duty.
And all of you have been silently protecting me for the past eleven years.
Thank you, and I wish everyone a happy new year in advance.
