An Yan didn’t think too much about it, but seeing that Cheng Yi was a bit hesitant, he asked again, “Why don’t you tell me what you want me to do later? Maybe it will be easy for me. ”
Cheng Yi replied carefully, “We have to destroy the mother zerg before it can launch a spiritual attack.”
“It sounds difficult, but I’ve studied it before and it’s not impossible.” Cheng Yi deliberately lowered his tone, as if it really wasn’t all that difficult. “We just need to break through the zerg surrounding the mother zerg first, then hit it five times in a row before it can launch its attack.”
This description sounds simple enough, but it was very difficult to put into practice.
The previous battles demonstrated the zerg’s frenzied and powerful attacks, and now they would be even more powerful in order to protect the mother zerg, defending it to the death.
So it would be a huge effort to tear a hole through the zerg surrounding the mother zerg, not to mention that they had to hit it five times in a row afterwards.
It was necessary to hit it five times in a row because the mother zerg would immediately launch a spiritual attack if there was a break in between.
Under such circumstances, the launch of these five attacks would undoubtedly be difficult. Not only did the attacks have to be launched continuously, they also had to hit the mother zerg every time. Otherwise, one failure would mean all the previous efforts are ruined.
Cheng Yi had chosen to cooperate with Lu Chen because he wanted to use the tiger’s sharp blade to tear open a gap through the zerg and give Lu Chen the opportunity to make a physical attack. As long as he could tear a large enough gap, Lu Chen’s mecha control skills could complete five hits in a row.
But Lu Chen didn’t want to cooperate with him.
Cheng Yi did not forcefully order him to do what he said because it was just his deduction that five hit attacks could stop the mother zerg from launching a spiritual attack. He was certain of this conclusion, but there was no sufficient basis to prove it.
So how could he use this conclusion to convince Lu Chen, who was already hesitant?
It was better to call it quits rather than have some unnecessary arguments and waste more time.
“Does it have to be a physical attack?” An Yan pondered and asked, “Can we use spiritual power to launch an attack?”
Spiritual power…. Cheng Yi’s gaze instantly lit up. How could he have overlooked such an important existence!
Although the little one’s spiritual energy was fused with human spiritual power and it didn’t look much different, Cheng Yi knew better than anyone else just how powerful and heaven-defying it was.
Someone else’s spiritual power might not pose any threat to the mother zerg, and they could only solve the problem through physical attacks.
But the little one’s spiritual power attack was definitely much more effective than ordinary physical attacks, and there was no need to worry about the speed and accuracy of the attack.
And in this way, he would not need to worry about the little one being exposed.
Such a thought might be a bit selfish, but Cheng Yi hoped only he could see and keep the little one’s secrets.
“Yes,” Cheng Yi immediately gave an affirmative answer, “The mother zerg’s spiritual attack is indeed very strong, but its body is equally very fragile. You just need to make sure that your spiritual power hits it. ”
An Yan immediately nodded his head, “Okay.”
Cheng Yi emphasized a few more points with An Yan. He was about to act when he heard Lu Chen suddenly say in panic, “The mother zerg seems to be moving! Is it about to launch a spiritual attack? ”
Cheng Yi immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the mother worm. It was completely surrounded by the zergs, and he could not see where it was at all, but it was evident that the zergs around it were restless.
Lu Chen was right. It was indeed a sign that the mother zerg were about to attack!
Cheng Yi’s pupils contorted, and he immediately ran in the direction of the mother zerg. Lu Chen was so frightened by the scene that his legs went weak and he stumbled along in his mecha.
The viewers on the livestream were shocked and wailing at this scene. Some even closed their eyes in despair, not daring to see what was about to happen next.
No matter how fast Cheng Yi was, it was still too late to stop the mother zerg’s spiritual attack. Although he acted decisively without any hesitation, his heart was already covered with despair.
He should have acted a little earlier!
Just a little bit earlier, even a little bit, and they would have been able to stop the Mother zerg from launching its spiritual attack!
Unfortunately, it was too late!
Cheng Yi’s movements did not pause in the slightest during that short moment, but many thoughts flashed through his mind.
He remembered the first time he saw the little one. He was holding a red apple with a cute look on his face.
He thought of the serious way he had called him “senior” with a smile.
He thought of his shy and expectant face when he said he liked him.
He thought of……
Cheng Yi wasn’t actively recalling these memories, but that these images jumped out of the depths of his memory and appeared in front of his eyes.
Just as these memories flashed by one by one, making Cheng Yi incomparably nostalgic and depressed, a piercing white light spread out from the direction of the mother zerg and soon extended in front of him.
This was the mother zerg’s spiritual attack. It looked like warm sunlight, but it could kill countless lives in an instant.
Cheng Yi thought that he would be greeted with a cold death. However, the moment the white light touched the mecha, the ring worn on his paw instantly emitted an incomparably soft glow of luminous white light.
This soft light was not as blinding as the mother zerg’s spiritual attack, but it was exceptionally strong in deflecting the blinding white light. The faint glow of light surrounded the entire mecha and gently protected it.
At the same time, part of the soft light quickly turned into a vine-like beam that stabbed in the direction of the mother zerg.
The scene in front of him was completely unexpected, but his eyes only widened slightly, before he immediately recovered and pounced on the mother zerg with the light.
An Yan was also quite surprised, but he did not remain idle. After realizing that his spiritual power could dispel the mother zerg’s spiritual attack, he immediately mobilized some of his spiritual power to protect Lu Chen, who was not far away.
The mother zerg’s spiritual attack was still extending into the distance, so An Yan made his spiritual power move out at a faster speed. He immediately used his spiritual power to protect any trace of humans he encountered.
Fortunately, his spiritual power was abundant and flexible enough, or it would have been difficult to keep up with the speed of the mother zerg’s spiritual attack.
While using his power to protect one human after another, An Yan did not forget the task Cheng Yi had given him.
He used his spiritual power to cooperate with Cheng Yi and successfully destroyed the mother zerg. The whole process was much easier than he had imagined.
The moment the mother zerg was completely destroyed, the spiritual power attack that was rapidly extending outwards instantly stopped and turned into a cloud of smoke before disappearing without a trace.
The zerg that had lost their mother zerg went berserk. But even so, they were quickly suppressed in the face of Cheng Yi’s sharp blades.
Although Cheng Yi’s mecha was in the form of a white tiger, and the tiger’s teeth, claws, and tail were indeed his important attack weapons, this did not mean that there were no other weapons on this mecha.
As an advanced mecha, it had more weapons than other mecha, all of which were more advanced.
Cheng Yi was using two different attack weapons at the same time. He blasted out several laser cannons while swinging out with his claws, and swarms of zergs were falling down.
After finishing his rescue work, An Yan immediately joined in the battle to destroy the zerg, hitting them with his spiritual power as if he was poking bubbles. He was having a lot of fun.
The atmosphere on the field was lighter and happier, but it was still stagnant in some places.
In the senior conference room of the military headquarters, the expressions on everyone’s faces were extremely serious, even more so before the problem was solved. Their eyes were all unanimously directed towards the electronic screen in the centre of the room.
What was playing on the electronic screen was the scene from earlier, where An Yan’s spiritual power had blocked the mother zerg’s spiritual attack, protected the humans present, and then helped Cheng Yi destroy the mother zerg in the process.
The video had been played five times in this room and was still being repeated. But not a single person showed any sign of boredom as they all stared unblinkingly at the video. They were trying to discover the hidden secrets through their wide eyes, but they were met with no success.
When the video finished playing for the sixth time, someone immediately spoke up eagerly, “Play it again!”
Every time the video finished playing, a different person always spoke up like this.
But this time, a voice of objection rang out, “Don’t.”
The man who had spoken earlier was about to get angry, but he did not dare to do so. He said sarcastically, “But we haven’t worked it out yet.”
General Zheng frowned and snorted coldly, “With your minds, you still won’t get a clue even if you look at it a hundred more times!”
